Abstract:

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to construct (i) infinitely many families of nonrational ℚ-Fano varieties of arbitrary dimension ≥ 4 with at most quotient singularities, and (ii) twelve families of nonrational ℚ-Fano threefolds with at most terminal singularities among which two are new and the remaining ten give an alternate proof of nonrationality to known examples. These are constructed as weighted hypersurfaces with the reduction mod p method introduced by Kollár [10].

Abstract:

In this paper, we extend cutting and blowing up to the nonrational symplectic toric setting. This entails the possibility of cutting and blowing up for symplectic toric manifolds and orbifolds in nonrational directions.

Abstract:

Ethical decision-making is inherent to the research ethics committee (REC) deliberation process. While ethical codes, regulations, and research standards are indispensable in guiding this process, decision-making is nonetheless susceptible to nonrational factors that can undermined the quality, consistency, and perceived fairness REC decisions. In this paper I identify biases and heuristics (i.e., nonrational factors) that are known to influence the reasoning processes among the general population and various professions alike. I suggest that such factors will inevitably arise within the REC review process. To help mitigate this potential, I propose an interventive questioning process that can be used by RECs to identify and minimize the influence of the nonrational factors most likely to impact REC judgment and decision-making.

Full text

Abstract:

In many schools hours of energy and effort are dedicated to making decisions and developing policy. At the school level issues of curriculum, faculty groupings and structure, strategy for staff allocations and resourcing of faculties, often results in debate before being decided upon. So often valuable time and resources are wasted in argument, disagreement and political activity. This study has been designed to determine what actually happens in the decision process, with the subject of the study a single committee. The aim of the study is to determine the style of policy development that took place and what influences affected the decisions made. The study is in two parts. The first section develops a Conceptual Framework and research questions to categorise, summarise and organise data collected from policy development processes. The Conceptual framework was designed to permit analysis of the major components of the stages of Problem Structuring, Generation of Alternatives and Recommending Policy Actions. The second section in includes further Research Questions to determine whether the process applied to developing policy was Rational, Nonrational (Incremental/Political) or a Mixed Model type. The research method used was naturalistic and qualitative in nature and in the context of a case study. The main findings were that a Mixed Model of policy development was used by the Committee with elements of both Rational and Nonrational process evident from the research data.

Abstract:

Non-rational and rational parametric interpolators are investigated and developed as mathematical entities for describing the geometric propagation of light in optical systems. The Bezier interpolator was chosen over other interpolators to describe extended and point objects and their subsequent mathematical propagation through an optical system primarily because of their superior mathematical stability, convex hull property, and endpoint interpolation, which is especially important for describing wavefront behavior. The limitations of the affine transformation first are exposed for transforming generalized three-dimensional extended Bezier objects ideally or collinearly through an optical system. This limitation necessitated the development of a projective transformation. The perspective projection next was used in a vector derivation of the collinear mapping equations thereby demonstrating that an optical collinear mapping is a special projective transformation. Furthermore, the perspective projection was found to correctly map non-rational and rational Bezier objects through an optical system. Rational Bezier interpolators, because they are inherently projections of n-dimensional functions onto hyperplanes, exist or live in a collinear space and therefore are ideally suited for describing the conjugate relationships found in optical systems. Bezier curves also are shown to describe the behavior of the meridional wavefront as it was refracted and reflected at optical surfaces. Affine maps again proved inadequate for general wavefront propagation necessitating the development of the Bezier ray trace. The Bezier ray trace was developed for both non-rational, rational quadratic, cubic, and piecewise continuous cubic orders by utilizing end control point interpolation and control polygon tangency conditions. In general non-rational quadratic and cubic Bezier curves inaccurately describe wavefront behavior in an optical system whereas their rational counterparts do so accurately. The ability of a rational Bezier curve to accurately describe a meridional wavefront leads to the interpretation that wavefronts and wave aberrations may be considered as projections of n-dimensional functions onto hyperplanes. Finally, the fourth order scalar wave aberration functions were converted into equivalent Bezier representations. This representation leads to a graphical interpretation of individual aberrations in terms of control points, which when uniformly parameterized and degree elevated to the same order, may be added by together to form composite aberrations.

Decision making model composes of a course of actions from data collection, information integration, logical reasoning, or alternatives evaluation, as the rationality part, till the combination of non-rationality part as desires, emotions, feelings, intuitions, preferences or others. In total of 22 samples with qualitative research, this study uses dairy method with daily semi-structured interviews and personal notes, together with the mobile ad-hoc APP designed for this research, to record the amount, contents and process of each rational and non-rational decisions made for three days, a process model is depicted as human beings act rationally at the very beginning of decision making process and gradually develop with non-rationality phase till the end of the implementation on the final choice, based on the self-aware significance level of each decision, with propositions supported by evidence on the line of time frame of this decision making process.

A new horn for high displacement amplification is developed. The profile of the horn is a open uniform nonrational B-Spline curve. The ultrasonic actuation of the horn exploits the first longitudinal displacement mode of the horn. The horn is designed by an optimization scheme. Prototypes of the horns are manufactured by a numerical control machining process. Performances of the proposed horn were evaluated by experiments. Experimental results of the fabricated horn confirm the effectiveness of the design method. The displacement amplification of the proposed horn is higher than that of the traditional catenoidal and Bézier horn with the same length and end surface diameters.

Full text

Abstract:

My thesis project positions the fiction of South African author J.M. Coetzee as a critical investigation into the tradition of the European Enlightenment, which subtends, anticipates, and reifies the excesses of colonial and neocolonial imperialism. I will examine Coetzee's treatment of speech while situating his critique of capital-r reason within a larger discussion of ethical responsibility toward the Other. Using Gayatri Spivak's interrogation of the work of Immanuel Kant, I will argue that Kant's construction of reason as superior to imagination in its perception of imaginative lack when confronted with the unpresentable, sublates the lack of control that emerges if the colonist perceives the 'savage' mass of colonial territory as anything other than infinitely beyond his imaginative capacity, and therefore beyond ethical obligation. I will also present an exegesis of J.L. Austin's speech act theory that will illuminate the alliance between reason and speech in the colonial arena, drawing on the work of Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler to locate a similarly poststructuralist impulse in two of Coetzee's early novels, Waiting for the Barbarians and Foe. Finally, I will argue that in one of Coetzee's later works, Disgrace, the power of the rational speech act gives way to a respect for the Other's suffering through an emphasis on nonverbal sound, which vectors ethical responsibility away from a model of obligation and towards a model of care that must, as Spivak contends, be alive to "the intuition that ethics are a problem of relation before they are a task of knowledge."

Abstract:

This article discusses some of the most important recent controversies in the psychology of Plato’s Republic. These include its views on akratic action, the capacities of the parts of the soul, and the distinction between the rational part of the soul and the nonrational parts. It argues that the Republic accepts the possibility of synchronic akratic action, that is, action contrary to the agent’s belief about what is overall best at the time of action. It then considers some recent arguments that the lower parts of the soul, especially the Appetitive part, are cognitively primitive. Against these views, this article argues that the Appetitive part is capable of means-end reasoning and of forming a conception of its own good. Finally, this article argues that Plato’s distinction between the rational and the nonrational parts of the soul is to be understood in terms of the intelligible versus sensible distinction.

Abstract:

The introduction explores the definition of enchantment by examining several examples, including images involving mythology and ancient literature and scriptures. Wish fulfillment and delusion are set aside as limited accounts. Enchantment as nonrational practice is situated within the modern ideology of rationality in order to begin to make the case for recognizing the persistence of enchantment and the limitations of modernity’s notion of progress and rationality. The author provides an overview of the book’s six chapters, which explore aspects of enchantment and concludes with a reflection on the scope of enchantment in human experience as the quest for making a home in a universe that can just as easily do without us.

Abstract:

This brief conclusion reviews central themes of the book. One central theme is living meaningfully. The book defends the view that meaningful living consists in spending your life’s time on ends that you take yourself, in your best judgment, to have reason to value and thus to use yourself up on. Meaningful living depends not only on what characterizes one’s whole life, but also on one’s actual time expenditures. The book argues that locking in the future by making commitments is not essential to meaningful living; it also explores the connections between meaningful living and boredom. A second theme of the book concerns the difficulties in living life as a temporal evaluator: the vulnerabilities to demoralization, estrangement, boredom, loss of practical hope and basal hopefulness, discontentment, and meaninglessness at the temporally local level. A third theme is the way our lives as evaluators are shaped in important ways by the personal, the nonrational, and optional styles.
