Abstract:
Flaky particles, because of their shape, are considered as inferior aggregates in asphaltic mixtures, and specifications usually set limits on the amount of flaky particles in asphaltic mixtures. In this study, the effects of flaky particles content on the volumetric properties, Marshall Stability and creep behaviour of hot mixed asphaltic concrete have been investigated. Specimens with two different types of gradation and specified amounts of flaky particles were made and used for Marshall Stability and static creep tests. Test results show that the Marshall Stability decreases and the air voids content of asphaltic mixture and the voids in mineral aggregate increase as the flaky particles content increases. It is also found that flaky particles cause increase in permanent deformation and decrease in creep stiffness. The creep tests also show that the recoverable deformation of the mixtures decreases as the flaky particles content increases.

Abstract:
A flaky test is a test which could fail or pass for the same version of a certain software code. In continuous software development environments, flaky tests represent a problem. It is difficult to get an effective and reliable testing pipeline with a set of flaky tests. Also, according to many practitioners, despite the persistence of flaky tests in software development, they have not drawn much attention from the research community. In this paper, we describe how a company faced this issue, and implemented solutions to solve flaky tests for REST web services. The paper concludes proposing a set of key success factors for stopping flaky tests in this type of testing.

Abstract:
Using the techniques of X-ray diffraction, polarizing microscopy, uniaxial compression, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the relationships between the microfracture features and mineral morphology of granite were studied. The results showed that feldspar, quartz, and biotite are the main components of the granite samples in this study. Biotite has a self-shaped flake structure with perfect cleavage. K-feldspar has a lattice double crystal structure with two groups of cleavage. Plagioclase has a semi-self-shaped plate structure with two groups of cleavage. Quartz is prismatic or granular and exhibits noncleavage. The microfracture features of biotite are flaky with exfoliation, and flake cleavage fracture is mainly determined by its peculiar flaky cleavage. Feldspar (K-feldspar and plagioclase) is plate, layered, or two groups of cleavage and is also mainly determined by its peculiar two groups of cleavage. The microfracture features of quartz are highly irregular, with many randomly distributed intergranular and transgranular cracks, small particles or granule bulges, similar to quartz crystal, and this is due to the noncleavage feature of quartz itself. It is demonstrated that microfractures are preferentially ruptured along cleavage planes for these granite minerals under the action of external forces.

Abstract:
The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behavior of the low alloy steel with granular-Zn-epoxy and flaky-Zn-epoxy coating in the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) solution was investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-rays diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) etc. Results show that the protection effect of the flaky-Zn coating specimen is much better than the granular-Zn coating one. The dissolution of zinc is more severe in granular-Zn coating than in flaky-Zn coating when the specimen immersed in the SRB solution. The shielding property of flaky zinc is much higher than granular zinc in the coating. The flaky-Zn coating is much more compact than the granular-Zn coating and therefore the property of anti-infiltration is much better. We may conclude that the flaky-Zn coating exhibited more favorable corrosion resistance property than the granular one.

Abstract:
Flaky and porous rod-like MgO powders were prepared by molten salt synthesis with MgCl2, CaCO3, NaNO3and KNO3as raw materials. TG-DSC, XRD and SEM were used to investigate the reacion process and characterize the resulting products. The results indicated that Ca2+was displaced by Mg2+and dolomites were formed and finally converted into magnesium carbonates during the molten salt synthesis. Fibrous Mg(OH)2formed in PEG solution and flaky Mg(OH)2formed in EDTA-PEG solution illustrated that EDTA and PEG molecules could define the growth direction of Mg(OH)2. The porous rod-like MgO powders with 20-80 nm in diameter and 40-100 in length-to-width ratio were obtained by the decomposition of fibrous Mg(OH)2at 600 °C, while the flaky MgO powders were prepared by the decomposition of flaky Mg(OH)2at 600 °C. Flaky MgO powders were platelike, with 30-50 nm in thickness, 200-500 nm in diameter, and up to 1.0 µm2in a single slice surface area.

Abstract:
With today’s focus on Continuous Integration, test cases are used to ensure the software’s reliability when integrating and developing code. Test cases that behave in an undeterministic manner are known as flaky tests, which threatens the software’s reliability. Because of flaky test’s undeterministic nature, they can be troublesome to detect and correct. This is causing companies to spend great amount of resources on flaky tests since they can reduce the quality of their products and services. The aim of this thesis was to develop a usable tool that can automatically detect flakiness in the Randomness category. This was done by initially locating and rerunning flaky tests found in public Git repositories. By scanning the resulting pytest logs from the tests that manifested flaky behaviour, noting indicators of how flakiness manifests in the Randomness category. From these findings we determined tracing to be a viable option of detecting Randomness as a cause of flakiness. The findings were implemented into our proposed tool FlakyReporter, which reruns flaky tests to determine if they pertain to the Randomness category. Our FlakyReporter tool was found to accurately categorise flaky tests into the Randomness category when tested against 25 different flaky tests. This indicates the viability of utilizing tracing as a method of categorizing flakiness.

Abstract:
Flaky tests are defined as tests that show non-deterministic outcomes, meaning they can show both passing and failing results without changes to the code. These tests cause a major problem in the software development process since it can be difficult to know if the cause of a failure originates from the production- or test code. Developers may choose to ignore failing tests known to be flaky when they might actually hide real bugs in the production code. This thesis investigates a specific category of flaky tests known as "Async Wait", which are tests that makes asynchronous calls to servers and other remote resources and fails to properly wait for the results to be returned. There are tools available for detecting flaky tests, but most of these need the test to be executed and operate on run time information. In order to detect potential flakiness in an even earlier state, this thesis looks in to if it is possible to predict flaky outcomes by analyzing only at the test code itself without running it. The scope is limited to the Async Wait only to determine in which cases and under what circumstances developing an algorithm to automatically detect these flaky tests would be possible in this category. Commits from open source projects on GitHub were scanned for Async Wait flaky tests with the intention of finding the characteristics of the asynchronous calls and how the waiting for them is handled as well as how the flakiness is resolved by developers in practice in order to see if the information in only the test code is enough to predict flaky behavior.

Abstract:
Background. Unstable and unpredictable tests, herein referred to as flaky tests, pose a serious challenge to systems in the production environment. If a device is not tested thoroughly, it will be sent back for retesting from the production centers, which is an expensive affair. Removing flaky tests involves detecting the flaky tests, finding the causes of flakiness and finally the elimination of flakiness. The existing literature provides information on causes and elimination techniques of flakiness for software systems. All of these are studied thoroughly, and support is taken from interviews to understand they are applicable in the context of embedded systems. Objectives. The primary objective is to identify causes of flakiness in a device under test and also techniques for eliminating flakiness. Methods. In this paper, we applied a literature review to find the current state-of-art of flakiness. A case study is selected to address the objectives of the study. Interviews and observations carried out to collect data. Data analysis performed using a directed content analysis method. Results. Observations resulted in eliminating 4 causes of flakiness in embedded systems. Interview results in finding 4 elimination techniques which were not found in the literature. Conclusions. Causes and Elimination techniques for the domain of embedded systems are identified. Knowledge translation between the domains was carried out effectively.

Abstract:
A study has been made of the characteristics of flake brass powders, and a route has been developed to produce such powders by small scale vibratory batch milling. Brass flakes are used as pigments for producing a 'gold leaf' appearance in ink and paints, and there are a variety of other applications. The commercial production route involves the slow process of rotary ball milling a coarse feed powder on a continuous basis. Initially a range of industrially produced powders were examined by a variety of techniques to determine the relationship between powder characteristics and commercial quality. Numerical calculations were carried out for the elastic deformation of balls on impact and the resulting plastic deformation of powder to flakes during ball milling. Vibratory ball milling of brass powder to flakes was then undertaken in the laboratory. The principal variables investigated were: milling time, ball size, initial particle size, total weight of powder and quantity of additive employed. The effect of these variables on flake production is described in terms of the processes of microforging, fracture and agglomeration. It was found that, providing one starts with a fine powder, vibratory milling could produce flakes similar to the industrial product much more rapidly than rotary ball milling. Vibratory milling is thus an excellent method for rapid production of small quantities of brass flakes.

Aquesta tesi es proposa d’estudiar l’Aixelià a Lalitpur, Índia Central, sota l’òptica del context del jaciment, el procés de formació del jaciment i l’organització tecnològica duta a terme pels hominins. Pretén comprendre els trets característics de l’organització tecnològica aixeliana al jaciment de Lalitpur. S’ha dut a terme mitjançant l’anàlisi del conjunt complet recuperat en el jaciment i no només focalitzant-la en els bifaços com a “fòssil tipus” de l’Aixelià com s’ha fet tradicionalment. En aquest sentit, s’ha emprat l’aproximació pròpia de l’anàlisi de la cadena operativa per comprendre l’organització tecnològica completa des de l’obtenció de la matèria primera, a la reducció dels nuclis, la producció de les ascles, llur modificació en eines configurades, l’ús, el reavivat, el seu abandonament i l’alteració en el decurs de processos post-deposicionals. També s’han tingut en compte atributs quantitatius per permetre les comparacions amb altres conjunts. Com que el conjunt va ser recuperat en contextos pròxims a la superfície, s’han emprès també estudis detallats del context del jaciment i dels processos de la seva formació a fi de confirmar la integritat del conjunt. El tipus de matèria primera ha estat sovint considerat com un factor important que afecta les eines de pedra, sobretot des del moment en què el conjunt està manufacturat principalment en granit. Per aquesta raó, s’han dut a terme estudis detallats de la matèria primera. Per acabar l’Aixelià de Lalitpur ha estat comparat amb d’altres conjunts ben estudiats de l’Índia, Àfrica i Europa a fi de situar l’Aixelià indi en un context global. L’estudi de l’organització tecnològica dels hominins aixelians de Lalitpur ha servit per a deduir-ne una imatge entenedora de la variabilitat tecnològica de les eines de pedra dels hominins aixelians. Ha ajudat en una redefinició de l’Aixelià de l’Índia i en la seva situació en un context global. A més ha servit per clarificar el concepte de “Aixelià de Grans Ascles” i les implicacions comportamentals d’aquesta tecnologia. També ha destacat la importància dels jaciments “de superfície” en l’estudi del Paleolític inferior, especialment a l’Índia i ha mostrat la importància dels estudis de la formació dels jaciments en la comprensió de les característiques dels jaciments paleolítics.
Esta tesis se propone el estudio del Achelense de Lalitpur, India Central, bajo la óptica del contexto del yacimiento, el proceso de formación del mismo y la organización tecnológica llevada a cabo por los homininos. Pretende comprender los rasgos característicos de la organización tecnológica achelense en el yacimiento de Lalitpur. Se ha llevado a cabo mediante el análisis del conjunto completo recuperado en el yacimiento y no tan sólo focalizándolo en los bifaces como “fósil tipo” del Achelense, tal como se había hecho tradicionalmente. En este sentido, se ha empleado la aproximación propia del análisis de la cadena operativa para comprender la organización tecnológica completa desde la obtención de la materia prima, a la reducción de los núcleos, la producción de lascas, su modificación en herramientas configuradas, su uso, el reavivado, su abandono y la alteración a lo largo de procesos post-deposicionales. También se han tenido en cuenta atributos cuantitativos para permitir las comparaciones con otros conjuntos. Como el conjunto fue recuperado en contextos próximos a la superficie, se han emprendido también estudios detallados del contexto del yacimiento y de los procesos de su formación a fin de confirmar la integridad del conjunto. El tipo de materia prima ha sido a menudo considerado como un factor importante que condiciona las herramientas de piedra, sobre todo desde el momento en que el conjunto está manufacturado principalmente en granito. Por esta razón, se han llevado a cabo estudios detallados de la materia prima. Para terminar el Achelense de Lalitpur ha sido comparado con otros conjuntos bien estudiados de la India, África y Europa con el fin de situar el Achelense indio en un contexto global.

Además ha servido para clarificar el concepto de “Achelense de Grandes Lascas” y las implicaciones comportamentales de esta tecnología. También ha destacado la importancia de yacimientos de “superficie” en el estudio del Paleolítico inferior, especialmente en la India y ha mostrado la importancia de los estudios de la formación del yacimiento en la comprensión de la naturaleza de los yacimientos paleolíticos.
The present thesis attempts to study the Acheulean at Lalitpur, Central India in terms of site context, formation processes and technological organization employed by the hominins. It attempts to understand the characteristic features of the Acheulean technological organization at the site of Lalitpur. This has been done through the examination of the entire assemblage from the site and not just focusing on bifaces as the ‘type fossil’ of the Acheulean as has traditionally been done. For this purpose, the chaîne opératoire approach has been used to understand the entire technological organization from raw material procurement, to core reduction, blank production, modification into tools, use, resharpening, discard and alteration subject to post-depositional processes. Quantitative attributes have also been recorded to enable comparisons. Since the assemblage is recovered from near surface contexts, detailed studies of site context and formation processes were also undertaken to assess the integrity of the assemblage. Raw material has often been considered as an important factor affecting stone tools, particularly since the assemblage is predominantly made on granite, therefore detailed raw material studies were carried out. Finally the Acheulean at Lalitpur was compared it with other well studied assemblages in India, Africa and Europe to place the Indian Acheulean in global context The study of the technological organization of the Acheulean hominins at Lalitpur has helped in deriving a comprehensive picture of the stone tool technological repertoire of the Acheulean hominins. It has helped redefine the Indian Acheulean and place it in global context. Further it has helped in clarifying the concept of ‘Large Flake Acheulean’ and the behavioural implications of this technology. It has also highlighted the importance of ‘surface’ sites in the study of the Lower Palaeolithic, particularly in India and pointed out the importance of site formation studies in understanding the nature of Palaeolithic sites.

Abstract:
This research focuses on experimental investigations of the drying and bending properties of wood flakes. Three species (southern yellow pine, sweetgum, and yellow-poplar) were tested. Experiments on flake drying and effect of flake properties (cutting direction and dimension) and an external factor (temperature) were used to evaluate the flake drying process. Drying experiments were conducted using a convection oven. Bending properties of dried flakes were also measured. Modulus of elasticity (MOE), modulus of rupture (MOR), and strength at proportional limit (SPL) of flakes were measured based on Methods of Testing Small Clear Specimens of Timber (ASTM D143-94) using a miniature material tester. The drying curve was characterized by a second-order/quadratic equation. This equation was then differentiated to get the drying rate curve. Observation on drying and drying rate curves revealed that the rate of moisture loss consists of two falling rate periods; no constant rate drying period was observed. First falling rate drying period is controlled by convective heat transfer. Bound water diffusion controls the second falling rate drying period. Species, cutting direction, dimension, and temperature were found to have significant effect on drying rate of wood flakes. Southern yellow pine has the fastest drying rate followed by sweetgum then yellow-poplar. Differences in drying rate between species were attributed to differences in specific gravity and other factors. Radially-cut specimens have a slower drying rate than tangentially-cut specimens. There were also significant differences in drying rate between the four different flake dimensions. Thickness was found to be the more sensitive parameter in terms of dimensions. As expected, drying temperature also had highly significant effect on drying rate. An increasing trend in drying rate was observed as drying temperature increased. Simulation of flake drying using a numerical model yielded a different result. Simulated flake drying has two drying periods: a constant rate and falling rate. Moisture of the flake decreases constantly and surface temperature increases rapidly to boiling point and remains there in the constant rate drying period. During the falling rate period, rate of moisture transport is limited by the ability of water to diffuse through wood and flake temperature starts to rise. Bending properties were found to vary between and within the three species. Southern yellow pine had the lowest bending stiffness and strength followed by sweetgum while yellow-poplar had the highest bending properties. Radially-cut specimens were found to have lower MOE, MOR, and SPL than tangentially-cut specimens. Drying temperature was also found to have a significant effect on bending stiffness and strength. A decreasing trend in bending properties was observed when drying temperature was increased.

Abstract:
Graphite has high in-plane thermal conductivity and is a potential candidate to combat the thermal management problems in high density electronic devices. However, the properties of graphite are not fully exploited and this study was carried out with the aim of fabricating and analysing high thermally conducting graphite based composites. Model composites were prepared with three different average flake sizes: 180 μm, 300 μm and 600 μm. The constituents( flakes and binders) were characterised in terms of density, carbon yield and crystallographic perfection using combination of techniques. The electrical resistivity of a single flake was found to be 0.6 μS2 m. A fabrication route was developed using 75% starting volume fraction (67% - 72%) estimated volume fraction in the composite) of small flake graphite. A high volume fraction was used so as to obtain composites with properties dominated by the flakes. The selection of the optimum route of fabrication was based on achieving the lowest electrical resistivity of the composite after carbonisation (1000 °C). An extensive study was carried out on composites prepared using 75% (starting volume fraction) flakes. The mis-alignment of the 002 plane was found to decrease with an increase in the flake size. The optical texture of small flake composites showed that the binder was inhomogeneously distributed and was observed to shrink away from the flakes whereas in the case of composites with large flakes, the binder was found to wet the flakes. The layers of the binder were also found to align along the basal planes of the flakes in the vicinity of the flakes. The composites with small flakes were found to be `brittle' whereas the large flake composites showed a more `ductile' behaviour. The Young's modulus and work-of-fracture were estimated from load versus extension curves. Raman studies showed an increase in the a-direction coherence length in the binder with an increase in heat-treatment temperature and the electrical resistivity of the composites was found to decrease with increase in flake size and heat-treatment temperature. The thermal conductivities were determined and samples were imaged in a thermal microscope. Comparison between quantitative thermal conductivity and that predicted using Lavin's relationship showed that Lavin's relationship is not applicable to these composites. A thermal conductivity of 655 W/m K (160% of that of copper) was achieved in graphitised large flake composites. The volume fraction of graphite was varied (estimated volume fraction 45%-75% in the composite) and graphitised large flake composites were studied. The density of the composites increased with an increase in the volume fraction whereas the mis-alignment of the 002 plane was found to decrease with an increase in the estimated volume fraction of graphite up to -70%. When the estimated volume fraction of graphite was further increased (-75%), the mis-alignment was found to increase. This was attributed to the microstructure which showed high packing density giving rise to twisting and distortion of flakes in the composite. Existing composite-type models failed to correctly predict the transport properties and hence, a first approach to developing a model specifically for these composites was attempted. However, due to their complex nature and insufficient information to define the modelling parameters its validity is uncertain. A thermal conductivity of 750 W/m K (190% that of copper) and density -1.8 g/cm3 (nearly one fourth of that of copper) and all this at relatively lower cost was achieved in graphitised large flake composites with -75% estimated volume fraction of graphite. This material is particularly attractive to combat thermal management problems.

Abstract:
AbstractSoftware developers frequently check their code changes by running a set of tests against their code. Tests that can nondeterministically pass or fail when run on the same code version are called flaky tests. These tests are a major problem because they can mislead developers to debug their recent code changes when the failures are unrelated to these changes. One prominent category of flaky tests is order-dependent (OD) tests, which can deterministically pass or fail depending on the order in which the set of tests are run. By detecting OD tests in advance, developers can fix these tests before they change their code. Due to the high cost required to explore all possible orders (n! permutations for n tests), prior work has developed tools that randomize orders to detect OD tests. Experiments have shown that randomization can detect many OD tests, and that most OD tests depend on just one other test to fail. However, there was no analysis of the probability that randomized orders detect OD tests. In this paper, we present the first such analysis and also present a simple change for sampling random test orders to increase the probability. We finally present a novel algorithm to systematically explore all consecutive pairs of tests, guaranteeing to detect all OD tests that depend on one other test, while running substantially fewer orders and tests than simply running all test pairs.

Abstract:
Abstract In general, scan shift failures are difficult to debug. Usually we use the compressed-mode chain test or scan capture-based chain diagnosis to ascertain the small chain segment or the position of the sequential element in the chain that is the cause of the failure. This method of diagnosis works well when the failures are static and limited to a chain segment, but fails to give results when the failure is caused by intra chain or inter chain segment interactions. This paper presents a scenario in which the root cause of the chain failures was due to interaction between chains. We call it the “invisible flaky chain defect” because -- although we were able to replicate failure at a test point (voltage-frequency) on the Shmoo -- the failing cycles changed from run to run.
