Abstract:
AbstractDuring RV Polarstern cruise ANT-XXIII/4 in 2006, a gravity core (PS 69/335-2) and a giant box core (PS 69/335-1) were retrieved from Maxwell Bay off King George Island (KGI). Comprehensive geochemical (bulk parameters, quantitative XRF, Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) and radiometric dating analyses (14C, 210Pb) were performed on both cores. A comparison with geochemical data from local bedrock demonstrates a mostly detrital origin for the sediments, but also points to an overprint from changing bioproductivity in the overlying water column in addition to early diagenetic processes. Furthermore, ten tephra layers that were most probably derived from volcanic activity on Deception Island were identified. Variations in the vertical distribution of selected elements in Maxwell Bay sediments further indicate a shift in source rock provenance as a result of changing glacier extents during the past c. 1750 years that may be linked to the Little Ice Age and the Medieval Warm Period. Whereas no evidence for a significant increase in chemical weathering rates was found, 210Pb data revealed that mass accumulation rates in Maxwell Bay have almost tripled since the 1940s (0.66 g cm-2 yr-1 in ad 2006), which is probably linked to rapid glacier retreat in this region due to recent warming.

Abstract:
Ice-free areas cover a small percentage of the land in the South Shetland Islands. However, they are significant as they contain ecosystems highly sensitive to environmental changes and are located within a region affected by global warming. These areas are dominated by periglacial, glacial, fluvial, and coastal processes and landforms, where permafrost is often present. Soil development is observed although vegetation cover is sparse and closely related to the geomorphology. The mapping and monitoring of ice-free areas is important as they are highly sensitive to climate change. The objective of this study was to characterize and map surface landforms in ice-free areas using traditional mapping methods as well as advanced remote sensing techniques. Geomorphological and topographical maps were initially obtained through field measurements and observations, and complemented with existing aerial photography at scales between 1:2000 and 1:25000. Thereafter, satellite-borne data became available and were included in the methodology to further determine the distribution of the landforms. In the Antarctic environment, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) provides the most reliable images as data can be obtained in any weather conditions as well as during the day and night. Fully polarimetric SAR RADARSAT-2 were used to determine seven different terrain classes representing surface landforms in ice-free areas around Maxwell Bay (King George Island). The SAR remote sensing techniques were successfully applied to identify different periglacial, fluvial, glacial, coastal, as well as lithological landforms. Field data from Fildes Peninsula were used to train a supervised classifier to map further areas around Maxwell Bay. In this case, the ice-free areas around Maxwell Bay clearly show the dominance of periglacial landforms and processes. Therefore, these techniques can be used to compare past and future results and to monitor areas affected by changing environmental factors and increasing human activities.

Abstract:
This paper presents a new Altivasum found off Jurien Bay, Western Australia at 60 m. This new species expands our understanding of the distribution, and in particular extends the northern range of Altivasum, in the South-west Marine Region. Altivasum pauladellaboscae n. sp. is more rhomboidal than A. hedleyi Maxwell and Dekkers, 2019, which is elongated, and has the formation of tubular spines on the shoulder of axial fold on the later whorls of the spire; these spines are not formed in A. pauladellaboscae n sp. Altivasum pauladellaboscae n sp. differs from A. profundum Dekkers and Maxwell, 2018 in having acute shoulder nodules. The South Australian, A. flindersi Verco, 1914 lacks the fibriated subsutural band found in A. pauladellaboscae n. sp. Altivasum clarksoni Maxwell and Dekkers, 2019 is geographically isolated and morphologically distinct, being more elongated and fibriated. This paper brings the number of described Altivasum species to five

Abstract:
Located of the east coast of Fildes Peninsula, South of Ardley Island, at King George Island, Ostrov Geologov (Geologist Islands) is a small island with 0.25 miles long. It only had one plant record published so far. We have conducted extensive fieldwork on the site and provide here a comprehensive checklist and a key for the moss species occurring on the island. Despite its small size, theislandcontains about 35% of all theFildes Peninsula moss flora, six new records were found. The pristine state of the island due to its relative isolation, presence of avian nesting sites and a relatively rich moss flora are strong arguments in favor of protection status for the island.

Abstract:
To study how Odontaster validus can influence the spatial structure of Antarctic benthic communities and how they respond to disturbance, it is necessary to assess potential dietary shifts in different habitats. We investigated the diets of O. validus from Maxwell Bay and South Bay in the West Antarctic Peninsula. A multifaceted approach was applied including in situ observations of cardiac stomach everted contents, isotopic niche, and trophic diversity metrics. Results confirm the flexible foraging strategy of this species under markedly different environmental conditions, suggesting plasticity in resource use. The data also showed evidence of isotopic niche expansion, high δ15N values, and Nacella concinna as a common food item for individuals inhabiting a site with low seasonal sea ice (Ardley Cove), which could have significant ecological implications such as new trophic linkages within the Antarctic benthic community. These results highlight the importance of considering trophic changes of key species to their environment as multiple ecological factors can vary as a function of climatic conditions.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse propose différentes méthodes numériques permettant de simuler le comportement des plasmas ou des faisceaux de particules chargées à coût réduit. Le mouvement de particules chargées soumises à un champ électromagnétique est régi par l'équation de Vlasov. Celle-ci est couplée aux équations de Maxwell pour le champ électromagnétique ou à l'équation de Poisson dans un cas simplifié. Plusieurs types de modèles existent pour résoudre ce système. Dans les modèles cinétiques, les particules sont représentées par une fonction de distribution f(x,v,t) qui vérifie l'équation de Vlasov. Dans le cas général tridimensionnel (3D), le système fait apparaître 7 variables. Les calculs sur ordinateur deviennent rapidement très lourds. Les modèles fluides de plasma s'intéressent quant à eux à des quantités macroscopiques déduites de f par des intégrales en vitesse, telles que la densité, la vitesse moyenne et la température. Ces quantités ne dépendent que de la position x et du temps t. Le coût numérique est ainsi réduit, mais la précision s'en trouve altérée. Dans la première partie de cette thèse, une méthode multi-fluides est utilisée pour la résolution du système de Vlasov-Poisson 1D. Elle est basée sur la connaissance a priori de la forme prise par la fonction de distribution f. Deux possibilités sont étudiées : une somme de masse de Dirac et le modèle multi-water-bag. Ce type de méthodes est plutôt adapté aux systèmes restant proches de l'état d'équilibre. La deuxième partie propose de décomposer f en une partie d'équilibre et une perturbation. L'équilibre est résolu par une méthode fluide alors que la perturbation est résolue par une méthode cinétique. On construit notamment un schéma préservant l'asymptotique pour le système de Vlasov-Poisson-BGK, basé sur une telle décomposition. On étudie dans la troisième partie la méthode Particle-In-Cell (PIC) en géométrie 2D axisymétrique. Un travail basé sur l'analyse isogéométrique est présenté, ainsi qu'un code PIC - Galerkin Discontinu parallélisé sur carte graphique (GPU). Cette architecture permet de réduire de manière significative les temps de calculs.

Abstract:
Ce document synthétise un ensemble de travaux portant sur le développement et l'analyse de méthodes de volumes finis utilisées pour l'approximation numérique d'équations aux dérivées partielles issues de la physique. Le mémoire aborde dans sa première partie des schémas colocalisés de type Godunov d'une part pour les équations de l'électromagnétisme, et d'autre part pour l'équation des ondes acoustiques, avec une étude portant sur la perte de précision de ce schéma à bas nombre de Mach. La deuxième partie est consacrée à la construction d'opérateurs différentiels discrets sur des maillages bidimensionnels relativement quelconques, en particulier très déformés ou encore non-conformes, et à leur utilisation pour la discrétisation d'équations aux dérivées partielles modélisant des phénomènes de diffusion, d'électrostatique et de magnétostatique et d'électromagnétisme par des schémas de type volumes finis en dualité discrète (DDFV) sur maillages décalés. La troisième partie aborde ensuite l'analyse numérique et les estimations d'erreur a priori et a posteriori associées à la discrétisation par le schéma DDFV de l'équation de Laplace. La quatrième et dernière partie est consacrée à la question de l'ordre de convergence en norme $L^2$ de la solution numérique du problème de Laplace, issue d'une discrétisation volumes finis en dimension un et en dimension deux sur des maillages présentant des propriétés d'orthogonalité. L'étude met en évidence des conditions nécessaires et suffisantes relatives à la géométrie des maillages et à la régularité des données du problème afin d'obtenir la convergence à l'ordre deux de la méthode.

Abstract:
The history of relative sea-level rise along the northern Gulf of Mexico must be constrained in order to determine the relative effects of eustatic sea-level rise, subsidence, antecedent topography, and sediment supply variations on fluvial--bay-shoreline sedimentary systems. This study adds important additional sea-level indicators for the past 10 kyrs in addition to compiling the extensive pre-existing data from the literature. The northern Gulf of Mexico data from the modern shoreline is compared western and eastern Gulf of Mexico datasets to determine the relative difference in subsidence rates over the past 4 kyrs. Subsidence differences are negligible. Furthermore, quantification of the antecedent topography provides a means to account for its effects on sedimentary architecture and the evolution of the Sabine and Calcasieu river-bay systems. The record of eustasy potentially indicates 3 to 4 meter-scale rapid rise intervals during the early Holocene. Subsequent to 7.5 ka, the progradation and retrogradation of the sedimentary systems must be attributed to sediment supply variations (climate change). From 7.5 ka to ∼3 ka, the east Texas, west Louisiana climate oscillated between sub-humid to sub-arid to produce greater than modern sediment flux manifested as deltaic deposits in the modern estuaries. Important future applications of this study include comparison to the nature and timing of fluvial-deltaic retreat in other estuaries along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts. The South Shetland Islands, off the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, are separated by glacial troughs carved during glacial maxima. These glacial troughs are currently fjords which contain a glaciomarine sedimentary record. Age constraining the sediments provides a retreat history of the ice cap for the past 15 kyrs including rates and magnitude of retreat for sub-polar glacial systems. Furthermore, the timing of the migration of sub-glacial polar (cold-based) glacial conditions southward is constrained to ∼10kyr. This has important implications for Holocene glacial flow rates and ice shelf stability in the Antarctic Peninsula region.

Abstract:
This article examines the gradual development of James Clerk Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory, arguing that he aimed at general structures through his models, illustrations, formal analogies, and scientific metaphors. It also considers a few texts in which Maxwell expounds his conception of physical theories and their relation to mathematics. Following a discussion of Maxwell’s extension of an analogy invented by William Thomson in 1842, the article analyzes Maxwell’s geometrical expression of Michael Faraday’s notion of lines of force. It then revisits Maxwell’s honeycomb model that he used to obtain his system of equations and the concomitant unification of electricity, magnetism, and optics. It also explores Maxwell’s view about the Lagrangian form of the fundamental equations of a physical theory. It shows that Maxwell was guided by general structural requirements that were inspired by partial and temporary models; these requirements were systematically detailed in Maxwell’s 1873 Treatise on electricity and magnetism.

Abstract:
This chapter studies the structure of Maxwell’s equations in a vacuum and the action from which they are derived, while emphasizing the consequences of their gauge invariance. Gauge invariance, on the one hand, allows one of the components of the magnetic potential to be chosen freely. Here, the chapter shows how the gauge-invariant version of the Maxwell equations in the vacuum can also be derived directly by extremizing. On the other hand, the chapter argues that gauge invariance imposes a constraint on the initial conditions such that in the end the general solution has only two ‘degrees of freedom’. Finally, the chapter develops the Hamiltonian formalisms in the Maxwell theory and compares them to the formalisms using non-gauge-invariant or massive vector fields.

This chapter is the first subset of a set of critical summaries Boltzmann’s writings on kinetic-molecular theory. It covers a first period in which he tried to construct the laws of thermal equilibrium, including the existence of the entropy function and the Maxwell–Boltzmann law, by various means including the principle of least action, Maxwell’s collision formula, the ergodic hypothesis, and a procedure of adiabatic variation. This is an immensely fertile period in which Boltzmann introduced several of the basic concepts, problems, and difficulties of modern statistical mechanics.

The chapter studies the equation’s invariances: gauge invariance and invariance under Poincaré transformations. These allow us to derive the conservation laws for the total charge of the system and also for the system energy, momentum, and angular momentum. To begin, the chapter introduces the first group of Maxwell equations: Gauss’s law of magnetism, and Faraday’s law of induction. It then discusses current and charge conservation, a second set of Maxwell equations, and finally the field–energy momentum tensor.

This chapter discusses classical electromagnetism. As an example of a classical field theory, electrodynamics is framed using a Lagrangian density. Until pioneers such as Faraday and Maxwell, electric vector fields and magnetic vector fields were regarded as separate phenomena entirely and it was only in the late nineteenth century that scientists saw them as components of a larger concept, the electromagnetic field. Maxwell’s equations are derived and the wave equations are revisited. The chapter discusses gauge fixing, the Hodge star, the Lorentz force law and molecular multipole moments and closes by defining the electromagnetic tensor and the Minkowski metric tensor.

Abstract:
In the writings of this period, we see Boltzmann responding to criticism by British kinetic theorists and by the German mathematician Ernst Zermelo regarding the equipartition of energy and the H theorem. Boltzmann also acted as a critic of other authors. He ridiculed Joseph Bertrand’s attack on Maxwell’s kinetic-molecular reasoning and, after much pounding on Max Planck’s early radiation theory, he managed to convince Planck to alter his approach to irreversibility. Boltzmann also gave a last critical review of the problem of specific heats. During the same period, he was working on his Gastheorie and this prompted him to discuss Johannes Diderik van der Waals’s theory in the light of the Maxwell–Boltzmann theory, with similar reasoning adapted to the problem of chemical dissociation.

Abstract:
This chapter covers a period in which Boltzmann returned to the collision-based approach and consolidated it in answer to criticism and suggestions by William Thomson, Hendrik Lorentz, George Bryan, Gustav Kirchhoff, and Max Planck. He corrected errors in alleged counterexamples of equipartition by William Burnside and William Thomson; and in 1887, when the Dutch theorist Hendrik Lorentz detected an error in his earlier derivation of the H theorem for polyatomic gases, he devised a highly ingenious alternative. In 1894, he offered a new, simplified derivation of the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution based on an idea by the British mathematician George Bryan. Together with Bryan, he also provided a kinetic-molecular model for the equalization of the temperatures of two contiguous gases. He denounced what he believed to be an error in Gustav Kirchhoff’s derivation of Maxwell’s distribution, and he strengthened Max Planck’s alternative derivation based on time reversal.

Taylor emerged as counterinsurgency coordinator in Washington, drafted a doctrinal framework, and oversaw American efforts in Vietnam and half a dozen other countries. By the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Taylor had just been installed as JCS chairman. He was a hawk on Cuba, but even though he advised air strikes against missile bases, he backed Kennedy’s naval quarantine against the opposition of the service chiefs. In Vietnam, too, Taylor was a hawk who pushed for the use of air power.

Boltzmann’s collective work was a mathemetical tour de force. Building on Clausius and Maxwell, he demonstrated that the distribution of gas phase atoms and molecules follows from probability theory. Atoms and molecules distribute themselves in space and momentum to the most probable distribution. Boltzmann used probability theory to quantify the most probable state and then demonstrated the connection between this state and its entropy. This novel approach, later validated by Sackur–Tetrode, led to the creation of statistical mechanics.

Abstract:
We are in the midst of what may become one of the true technological transformations of our time. RFID (radio frequency identification) is by no means a new technology. RFID is fundamentally based on the study of electromagnetic waves and radio, pioneered in the 19th century work of Faraday, Maxwell, and Marconi. The idea of using radio frequencies to reflect waves from objects dates back as far as 1886 to experiments conducted by Hertz. Radar was invented in 1922, and its practical applications date back to World War II, when the British used the IFF (Identify Friend or Foe) system to identify enemy aircraft (Landt, 2001). Stockman (1948) laid out the basic concepts for RFID. However, it would take decades of development before RFID technology would become a reality. Since 2000, significant improvements in functionality, decreases in both size and costs, and agreements on communication standards have combined to make RFID technology viable for commercial and governmental purposes. Today, RFID is positioned as an alternative way to identify objects with the ubiquitous bar code.

Abstract:
In a fuel cell system the stack is strongly coupled with the main system components, among which the compressor is one of the most important. Malfunction of this auxiliary device (delay during peak power, low stoichiometry operation, emergency stop, etc) is directly responsible for bad oxygen distribution in the cathode (substoichiometry reactants feeding). This phenomenon is usually called oxygen starvation. In this study we want to identify the consequences of oxygen starvation on performance and durability of PEMFC stacks and more particularly on the current distribution along the cell. The oxygen concentration decreases along the channel and induces a change of the local electrochemical response; it means that the local current density on the cell is redistributed on the surface. This bad distribution of reactive gas (in a transient time or long time) decreases performance but may also have an effect on cathode degradation like carbon corrosion and platinum dissolution/oxidation. The current distribution along the cell is studied by two approaches (modeling and experiments). The local current is computed by measuring the local induced magnetic field and using Maxwell equations. The experiments are performed with a bi-cell stack developed by CEA with specific design for the magnetic sensors. The 3D model using serpentine bipolar plate meshing is adapted to dynamically compute the catalyst layer local conditions (local current, temperature, gases partial pressure, water activity). It is able to reproduce the conditions of low or high oxygen concentration in the cathode side.

Abstract:
Polymer matrix composites often exhibit a strong strain rate dependance in their mechanical response. In many of these materials, the viscoelastic behavior of the polymer matrix drives the rate dependence in the composite, however identifying these parameters at high strain rate presents a significant challenge. Common high-rate material characterization techniques such as the Kolsky (split-Hopkinson pressure) bar require a large test matrix across a range of strain rates. Kolsky bars also struggle to identify constitutive parameters prior to the yield due to inertial effects and the finite period of time required to reach force equilibrium. The Image Based Inertial Impact (IBII) test has been successfully used to identify linear elastic constitutive behavior of composites at high strain rates, but, to date, has only been used to extract constitutive properties at a single nominal strain rate in each test. Here, we propose an adaptation of the IBII test to identify viscoelastic parameters at high strain rates using full-field displacement data and the nonlinear virtual fields method (VFM). We validate the technique with finite element simulations of an IBII test on a model viscoelastic material that is characterized with a Prony series formulation of the generalized Maxwell model. The nonlinear VFM is then used to extract the Prony pairs for dynamic moduli and time constants from the full-field deformation data. The nonlinear viscoelastic identification allows for characterization of the evolution of mechanical response across a range of strain rates in a single experiment. The experimentally identified viscoelastic parameters of the matrix can then be used to predict the behavior of the composite at high strain rates. This approach will also be validated experimentally using a single-stage gas-gun to characterize the high-rate viscoelastic response of PMMA.

Abstract:
Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99), from Cupar, Fife, was a pioneering author of science fiction stories, most of which appeared in San Francisco’s Argonaut magazine in the 1880s and ’90s. SF historian Sam Moskowitz credits Milne with being the first full-time SF writer, and his contribution to the genre is arguably greater than anyone else including Stevenson and Conan Doyle, yet it has all but disappeared into oblivion. Milne was fascinated by science. He drew on the work of Scottish physicists and inventors such as James Clark Maxwell and Alexander Graham Bell into the possibilities of electromagnetic forces and new communications media to overcome distances in space and time. Milne wrote about visual time-travelling long before H.G. Wells. He foresaw virtual ‘tele-presencing’, remote surveillance, mobile phones and worldwide satellite communications – not to mention climate change, scientific terrorism and drone warfare, cryogenics and molecular reengineering. Milne also wrote on alien life forms, artificial immortality, identity theft and personality exchange, lost worlds and the rediscovery of extinct species. ‘A New Palingenesis’, originally published in The Argonaut on July 7th 1883, and adapted in this comic, is a secular version of the resurrection myth. Mary Shelley was the first scientiser of the occult to rework the supernatural idea of reanimating the dead through the mysterious powers of electricity in Frankenstein (1818). In Milne’s story, in which Doctor S- dissolves his terminally ill wife’s body in order to bring her back to life in restored health, is a striking, further modernisation of Frankenstein, to reflect late-nineteenth century interest in electromagnetic science and spiritualism. In particular, it is a retelling of Shelley’s narrative strand about Frankenstein’s aborted attempt to shape a female mate for his creature, but also his misogynistic ambition to bypass the sexual principle in reproducing life altogether. By doing so, Milne interfused Shelley’s updating of the Promethean myth with others. ‘A New Palingenesis’ is also a version of Pygmalion and his male-ordered, wish-fulfilling desire to animate his idealised female sculpture, Galatea from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, perhaps giving a positive twist to Orpheus’s attempt to bring his corpse-bride Eurydice back from the underworld as well? With its basis in spiritualist ideas about the soul as a kind of electrical intelligence, detachable from the body but a material entity nonetheless, Doctor S- treats his wife as an ‘intelligent battery’. He is thus able to preserve her personality after death and renew her body simultaneously because that captured electrical intelligence also carries a DNA-like code for rebuilding the individual organism itself from its chemical constituents. The descriptions of the experiment and the body’s gradual re-materialisation are among Milne’s most visually impressive, anticipating the X-raylike anatomisation and reversal of Griffin’s disappearance process in Wells’s The Invisible Man (1897). In the context of the 1880s, it must have been a compelling scientisation of the paranormal, combining highly technical descriptions of the Doctor’s system of electrically linked glass coffins with ghostly imagery. It is both dramatic and highly visual, even cinematic in its descriptions, and is here brought to life in the form of a comic.
