Abstract:
Labelled transition systems are a simple yet powerful formalism for describing the operational behaviour of computing systems. They can be extended to model concurrency faithfully by permitting transitions between states to be labelled by a collection of actions, denoting a concurrent step. Petri nets (or Place/Transition nets) give rise to such step transition systems in a natural way—the marking diagram of a Petri net is the canonical transition system associated with it. In this paper, we characterize the class of PN-transition systems, which are precisely those step transition systems generated by Petri nets. We express the correspondence between PN-transition systems and Petri nets in terms of an adjunction between a category of PN-transition systems and a category of Petri nets in which the associated morphisms are behaviour-preserving in a strong and natural sense.

Abstract:
In our search for new obscured PN, candidates were selected from the IRAS PSC based on their infrared colors that are typical for PN. These PN candidates were observed in the radio. On average 20 % of the objects were detected (Van de Steene & Pottasch: 1993, A&A 274, 895; 1995, A&A 299, 238). Optical spectroscopy showed that the PN candidates detected in the radio have emission line spectra typical of PN (Van de Steene et al. 1996a A&AS 118, 243; 1996b A&AS in press).

Abstract:
We show how the different assumptions on the transition time (the time lag between the superwind quenching at the AGB and the illumination of the Planetary Nebula [PN]) reflect into very different theoretical outcomes, both in the characteristics of the stellar remnants, and in the evolution of the nebular shells.We use a Monte Carlo simulation of post-AGB stars with a set of assumptions on the transition time, to show the effect on the resulting location of the stars on the HR diagram, and on the derived core mass distributions.We have also performed numerical simulations of the PN formation process, and investigated the effects of the transition time on the resulting PN structure. We found that the transition time determines not only the size of the PN shell, but also its dynamical evolution.We show the important implications that the transition time has on the observable parameters during the PN stage.

Abstract:
During the immediate postnatal (PN) period, the liver, with its role in energy metabolism and macromolecule synthesis, plays a central role in the perinatal transition. Using RNA microarrays and several complementary computational analyses, we characterized changes in hepatic gene expression in the rat across a developmental period starting with the late gestation fetus (embryonic day 21), and including 30 min PN, 4 h PN, 12 h PN, 1 day PN, and 1 week after birth. Following subtle changes in gene expression at the earliest PN time point, there were marked changes that occurred between 4 and 12 h after birth. These reflected changes in multiple metabolic pathways, with expression of enzymes involved in glycolysis and cholesterol synthesis showing the greatest change. Over 50% of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes changed in the first 7 days of PN life, with 25% changing within the first 24 h. We also observed changes coinciding with a transient period of synchronous hepatocyte proliferation that we had observed previously, which occurs during the first PN week. Analysis for upstream regulators of gene expression indicated multiple initiating factors, including cell stress, hormones, and cytokines. Also implicated were multiple canonical transcription factor networks. We conclude that changes in gene expression during the early phases of the perinatal transition involve a complex, choreographed network of signaling pathways that respond to a variety of environmental stimuli. This transcriptomic response during the immediate PN period reflects a complex metabolic adaptive response that incorporates a panoply of signaling pathways and transcriptional regulators.

Abstract:
Industrial discrete event dynamic systems (DEDSs) are commonly modeled by means of Petri nets (PNs). PNs have the capability to model behaviors such as concurrency, synchronization, and resource sharing, compared to a step transition function chart or GRAphe Fonctionnel de Commande Etape Transition (GRAFCET) which is a particular case of a PN. However, there is not an effective systematic way to implement a PN in a programmable logic controller (PLC), and so the implementation of such a controller outside a PLC in some external software that will communicate with the PLC is very common. There have been some attempts to implement PNs within a PLC, but they are dependent on how the logic of places and transitions is programmed for each application. This work proposes a novel application-independent and platform-independent PN implementation methodology. This methodology is a systematic way to implement a PN controller within industrial PLCs. A great portion of the code will be validated automatically prior to PLC implementation. Net structure and marking evolution will be checked on the basis of PN model structural analysis, and only net interpretation will be manually coded and error-prone. Thus, this methodology represents a systematic and semi-compiled PN implementation method. A use case supported by a digital twin (DT) is shown where the automated solution required by a manufacturing system is carried out and executed in two different devices for portability testing, and the scan cycle periods are compared for both approaches.

Full text
Abstract:
This project contains six chapters, and looks carefully at the original generic forms and cultural environment of publication. This first part will include the general introduction to the shaping and the mapping of knowledge of China in the pre-Romantic period. Daniel Defoe’s The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1719), as a widely-read, popular romance, would serve as an important text that provides a peep into contemporary British and China from an economic and materialistic perspective. French texts of Montesquieu’s The Spirit of the Laws (1748) and Voltaire’s An Essay on Universal History, the Manners, and Spirit of Nations (1756) would also be included and carefully examined. Although these two works were not written in English, still both held strong presences in the circle of British intellectuals at that time. And although both works were based on the Jesuits’ accounts, they ended up yielding rather different results, providing almost opposite contemporary opinions about China. In Montesquieu’s idea, China, as an absolute despotic country that produces nothing but economic and social stagnation whereas in Voltaire’s depiction, China is guided and governed by high moral and philosophical standards. Both writers’ works showcase an unsettling debate on how China is and should be portrayed in the mid-eighteenth century. This would provide a special foreground that nurtures the later discussions on China, such as the idea of political economy in Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations (1776) and the general public’s ambivalent sentiments towards China, which would lay a strong foundation for the development of this research project. The second chapter takes on Oliver Goldsmith’s The Citizen of the World (1762) and his other essays and periodical articles to explore how Goldsmith, while echoing back to the aforementioned two writers, takes good advantage of the satirical form of a Chinese philosopher-travellers’ account, not to work as a mechanism of producing sheer alienation and foreignness, but to provide his social observation, in order to assess both domestic and exotic cultures from a parodist’s point of view. Although Goldsmith has constantly been accused of plagiarising European works, and although he did not offer an effective solution to the conflicting nature of Chinese vogue in his contemporary Europe, he was one of the most influential figures in his time who actually dove into the popular cultural phenomenon, suggesting the possible marriage and amiable relationship between the domestic and the foreign cultures with a slight amount of disbelief, concern, and sarcasm. Chapter three deals with Lord Macartney’s Embassy to China between 1792 and 1794, and looks closely at the travel narratives both by embassy members and by Lord Macartney himself. Several visual representations of China would be examined in this chapter, including some of the most well-known works by caricaturists such as James Gillray and George Cruikshank before and after the embassy. William Alexander, the embassy’s draughtsman, also brought home numerous first-hand portrayals of China, allowing the British public to see the non-distorted images of China. Despite the unsuccessful diplomatic journey, the Embassy returned to Britain with some immediate and direct accounts of Chinese society that were not from a Jesuit source, which defined how common English public comprehended and perceived China from then on. Whether Lord Macartney performed the ritual of “kowtow” ignited a heated series of deliberations about China: if it is a country of absolute despotism or of enlightened despotism? And if China has been stagnant in terms of technology, economy, and culture? Would China be able to open up for foreign trades and diplomacy? These debates strongly shaped the subsequent discussions of China in England in the nineteenth century. Chapter four scrutinises several Charles Lamb’s Elia essays (1823, 1833) and his correspondences with Samuel Taylor Coleridge and with Thomas Manning who was a leading Sinologist and later a member of Amherst Embassy. Coleridge’s fragmental masterpiece “Kubla Khan” is also included to illuminate the phenomenon of popular oriental fantasy, while the correspondences from Manning and Coleridge are incorporated to examine Lamb’s major source of creative ideas. Particularly, Lamb’s most celebrated essay “Old China” would serve as a perfect example to further dive into not only the writer’s personal obsessive attachment to chinaware but also the remarkable reflection on how the vogue of chinoiserie and the oriental luxuries helped form the concept of “taste” and gave rise to the new consumer ethics of the middle class in Britain. This would also position the consumption of chinoiserie in the luxury debate in the eighteenth century, and how this phenomenon gradually died away in the nineteenth century. Chapter five approaches Thomas De Quincey’s most famous yet notorious work, Confessions of an English Opium Eater (1822, 1856) and political essays in relation to Anglo-Chinese diplomacy. Influenced by the emergence of racial theories and the trend of switched focus from China to India and the South Sea, De Quincey’s ideas of China reflected the new-found colonist supremacy of Britain, and how the military intervention should be carried out in order to, eventually, disenchant the old charm of China that was thoroughly built up by and within the European imagination. The stagnation in politics, economy and society of China was gradually and then generally accepted in the first half of the nineteenth century, and De Quincey’s proposal that Britain should wage wars against China can also be seen as a violent means for Britain to actively take on the role of global power and colonial country that seeks overseas expansion, as well as a means for China to transform. The last chapter will conclude that “Chinese Orientalism” is not a by-product of “Romantic Orientalism”; rather, “Chinese Orientalism” should be viewed and understood as a series of images of China that have been romanticised by European imagination—whether they are positive or negative—and they peaked during the mid-eighteenth and the mid-nineteenth centuries. “Chinese Orientalism” is, again, not a simplistic idea, but a complex, triangular relationship with politics, commerce, and culture between England and China. This shift in the balance of opinions was accompanied by a change in emphasis and approach in European construct of China, from an Enlightened preoccupation with and admiration of the political, cultural and philosophical supremacy of China, to a Romantic engagement bifurcated between intimate consumers’ attachment to the chinoiserie and oriental luxuries, and then to a racialised “Other” and a stagnant and tiresome country of despotic polity that was in a desperate need for British rationalism and military intervention as a means to revive. With the aim of opening testing and giving great contextual specificity to China within larger discourses and representations of the East, this thesis tracks this process of transformation and the balance of opinions. And it is my hope that this study will in some measure contribute to the heightening of this interest, especially at the time when Europe and China are bound not only culturally but also politically and financially.

New quaternary selenides in TM1/TM2/Pn/Se (TM1, TM2 = transition metal; Pn = main group element) system was synthesized. All products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and these structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The relationships between physical properties and electronic structures were also investigated. Two quaternary transition metal selenides, Ag0.46Mn1.08Pn2.46Se5 (Pn = Sb, Bi) were synthesized by solid state method at 923K. Both structures crystallize in the monoclinic system (Ag0.46Mn1.08Bi2.46Se5: space group C2/m, a = 13.418(3) Å, b = 4.0973(8) Å, c = 16.987(3) Å, β = 93.369(3)o, Z = 4; Ag0.46Mn1.08Sb2.46Se5: space group C2/m, a = 13.290(4) Å, b = 4.030(1) Å, c = 16.866(4) Å, β = 94.428(3) o, Z = 4). These compounds are isostructual with the AgBi3S5 that contains two types of layered slabs classified as the Pavonite homologous series P (5,1). The magnetic property of Ag0.46Mn1.08Bi2.46Se5 is Cuire-Weiss paramagnet at high temperature and undergoes antiferromagnetic ordering at low temperature. The Ag0.46Mn1.08Sb2.46Se5 well shows ferromagnetic behavior. The increase of electrical conductivity with increasing temperature indicates both compounds are semiconductors. The optical band gaps are 0.66 and 0.85 eV for Ag0.46Mn1.08Bi2.46Se5 and Ag0.46Mn1.08Sb2.46Se5, respectively. Measurements of Seebeck coefficient indicate n-type for Ag0.46Mn1.08Bi2.46Se5 (-745 μV/K. at 568 K) and p-type semiconductor for Ag0.46Mn1.08Sb2.46Se5 (249 μV/K at 608 K). These experimental results are corroborated by electronic band structure calculations.

Abstract:
Using the example of the town of Labin in Istria, I demonstrate how isolation, the so-called periphery, can also serve as an expression of resistance in a cultural niche. The collective Labin Art Express (L.A.E., initiated by Dean Zahtila, late Krešimir Farkaš, Graziano Kršić) is the initiator of the fundamental L.A.E. project Underground City XXI ‒ independent underground Labin cultural city as an alternative to the existing above-ground, heteronomous Labin, i.e. the creation of a real city 150 m below the earth’s surface ‒ in underground halls and tunnels, carved in solid rock, connecting Labin, Raša, Plomin and Rabac, with streets, bars, galleries, swimming pools, playgrounds for children, shops, restaurants, the Museum of Mining and Industry of Istria. Thereby we can compare Labin in terms of urbanity and anthropology with the town of Katowice, which in 2018 was selected to host the most significant UN Climate Change Conference, following the 2015 Paris Agreement. Katowice were chosen as one of Europe’s most polluted sites due to the exploitation of coal i.e. the transition of the aforementioned town from a mining and industrial site to a modern industrial, economical, technological and cultural centre.

Abstract:
The PN model discussed in the preceding chapter is a continuum approach that requires some atomistic input to account for non-linear interactions in the dislocation core. In this chapter, we introduce yet another continuum model that uses atomistic input for a different purpose. The kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) model does not consider any details of the core structure but instead focuses on dislocation motion on length and time scales far greater than those of the atomistic simulations. The model is especially effective for diamond-cubic semiconductors and other materials in which dislocation motion is too slow to be observed on the time scale of molecular dynamics simulations. The key idea of the kMC approach is to treat dislocation motion as a stochastic sequence of discrete rare events whose mechanisms and rates are computed within the framework of the transition state theory. Built around its unit mechanisms, the kMC model simulates dislocation motion and predicts dislocation velocity as a function of stress and temperature. This data then can be used to construct accurate mobility functions for dislocation dynamics simulations on still larger scales (Chapter 10). In this sense, kMC serves as a link between atomistic models and coarse-grained continuum models of dislocations. The kMC approach is most useful in situations where the system evolves through a stochastic sequence of events with only a few possible event types. The method has been used in a wide variety of applications other than dislocations. For example, the growth of solid thin films from vapor or in solution is known to proceed through attachment and diffusion of adatoms deposited on the surface. Based on a finite set of unit mechanisms of the motion of adatoms, kMC models accurately describe the kinetics of growth and the resulting morphology evolution of the epitaxial films [95, 96, 97]. Similar kMC models have been applied to dislocation motion in crystals with high lattice resistance, such as silicon. In these materials, dislocations consist of long straight segments interspersed with atomic-sized kinks, depicted schematically in Fig. 9.1(a) as short vertical segments. As was explained in Section 1.3, dislocation motion proceeds through nucleation and migration of kink pairs and can be described well by a kMC model.

"PN: It reminds me that in the story called ‘Madame Realism’, the narrator decides that ‘Anything can be a transitional object. No one spoke of limits, they spoke of boundaries. And my boundaries shift, she thought, like ones do after a war when countries lose or gain depending on having won or lost’ (MR, 39). The reference to Winnicott’s concept of ‘transitional objects’ seems to have a relevance to your sense of how fiction operates—perhaps as (to use another concept from Winnicott) a ‘potential space’ somewhere between psyche and world where a certain ‘play’ can take place? LT: In criticism you always have to make one argument, and you have to support that argument against other arguments. In writing a novel or a short story there are arguments going on too, but there you have the possibility of different voices and different characters. You don’t have to argue as if there’s one truth, or one way to see something, you can allow for a lot of ambivalence. In some way writing fiction for me is about anxiety and being extremely insecure, and having between me—and maybe this is Winnicottian—between me and the world a space where I say, this is not me, and it is me, ambivalently, but this is also not Truth. PN: Motion Sickness suggests that national identity is like armour; in Haunted Houses are we meant to conclude that gender is similarly a kind of defence and constraint? LT: Yes, I think I very much felt that when I wrote Haunted Houses. All my books are in a way about limits, and about fighting those limits. Haunted Houses definitely was about the limits of gender and of being a girl, how you took it on, how you wrestled with it; then with Motion Sickness it was national identity and nationalism. But you never want to celebrate your limits, you don’t want to celebrate being an American, to celebrate being a woman. That’s making a virtue out of something that’s neither a vice nor a virtue. It’s a given. You’re born into something and it’s a matter of what you do with that. PN: Relations between self and other seem to be played out visually a lot of the time—in Haunted Houses, for example: ‘there was a chance of being looked at, which was better than being spoken to: it was as if she were being taken, unaware and involuntarily, and not taken’ (H, 62). LT: Being looked at—again this would be an interesting argument that pornography is not rape—looking at something and having a fantasy is different from being thrown into the bushes and raped. This could also lead into a discussion about aspects of female desire and whether a woman’s desire to be looked at is passive or active. I tend to feel those terms, ‘passive’ and ‘active’, are—well,." In Textual Practice, 56. Routledge, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.4324/9780203986219-22.

"PN: We’ve talked quite a bit about narrative; maybe we should think too about tone and about your exploitation of particular figures of speech. Cast in Doubt is tonally rich, of course, but that’s partly parodic. Other books, particularly Haunted Houses, seem to cultivate a certain lack of tone; sometimes the style reminded me of forms of naturalism. Whole passages of flat, short sentences which made me think of Dos Passos in the way one thing or event is simply placed against another. An emphasis on the local and contiguous rather than on some overall structure or plot, perhaps…? LT: I don’t think of the style of Haunted Houses as flat. It’s angular, sharp. The edges between sentences are tough—take no prisoners. The structure too is angular—three characters who never meet, three chapters for each of the five sections, no greased transitions. I was interested in how gaps make meanings, how juxtapositions work. I’m always involved in that, pushing one set of ideas up against another. That’s maybe what you think of as naturalistic. And all that makes strange disturbances. Haunted Houses is grimly funny sometimes. Motion Sickness is more fluid, playing off a stream of words, associations; its structure is almost circular, with the first chapter, to my mind, a trailer for the upcoming feature. Cast in Doubt is arch, even toying with being precious. The structure is filled with holes, anxious ones. Each work is supposed to have its own integrity. PN: And the style is always aware of itself, of the effects it’s aiming for. At first glance it just seems witty, but there’s another layer where you start stripping away the cottonwool of metaphor: ‘She chooses a piece of silverware as if it were a weapon. But she does not attack her food’ (A, 106). This kind of effect reminds me of Brecht’s advice to his actors, to speak their lines as if they were bracketed within quotation marks. LT: Books are made of words, characters are made of words. I like to call attention to that. To me it’s pleasurable. It’s like watching a movie. If the film-maker isn’t using the camera well, using that medium as if there weren’t a camera, or if the editing isn’t really interesting, what are you watching? You’re not actually watching something that’s taking advantage of the medium. PN: What I called ‘bracketing’ is also something that I think you’ve explored in your work with film. In an interview about Committed you say that you ‘used certain narrative codes but then veered away from them sharply and used other, more avant-garde ones— deliberately going back and forth.’ There’s certainly an emphasis."

Abstract:
This paper describes the results of pressure vessel fracture test which called West Jefferson and/or partial gas burst testing using Grade API X65 linepipe steel with high Charpy energy that exhibits inverse facture in the Drop Weight Tear Test (DWTT). A series of pressure vessel fracture tests which is as part of an ongoing effort by the High-strength Line Pipe committee (HLP) of the Iron and Steel Institute of Japan (ISIJ) was carried out at low temperature in order to investigate brittle-to-ductile transition behavior and to compare to DWTT fracture behavior. Two different materials on Fracture Appearance Transition Temperature (FATT) property were used in these tests. One is −60 degree C and the other is −25 to −30 degree C which is defined as 85 % shear area fraction (SA) in the standard pressed notch DWTT (PN-DWTT). The dimensions of the test pipes were 24inches (609.6 mm) in outside diameter (OD), 19.1 mm in wall thickness (WT). In each test, the test pipe is cooled by using liquid nitrogen in the cooling baths. Two cooling baths are set up separately on the two sides of the test vessel, making it possible to obtain fracture behaviors under two different test temperatures in one burst test. The test vessel was also instrumented with pressure transducers, thermocouples and timing wires to obtain the pressure at the fracture onset, temperature and crack propagation velocity, respectively. Some informative observations to discuss appropriate evaluation method for material resistance to brittle facture propagation for high toughness linepipe materials are obtained in the test. When the pipe burst test temperatures are higher than the PN-DWTT transition temperature, ductile cracks were initiated from the initial notch and propagated with short distance in ductile manner. When the pipe burst test temperatures were lower than the PN-DWTT transition temperature, brittle cracks were initiated from the initial notch and propagated through cooling bath. However, the initiated ductile crack at lower than the transition temperature was not changed to brittle manner. This means inverse facture occurred in the PN-DWTT is a particular problem caused by the API DWTT testing method. Furthermore, results for the pipes tested indicated that inverse facture occurred in PN-DWTT at the temperature above the 85 % FATT may not affect the arrestability against the brittle fracture propagation and it is closely related with the location of brittle fracture initiation origin in the fracture appearance of PN-DWTT.

Abstract:
Alternative splicing within proteins is common but not well understood in its influence on protein structure and stability. Filamins are ubiquitous actin-crosslinking proteins with two dozen Immunolgobulin (Ig) repeats and one alternatively-spliced ‘hinge’ that has been hypothesized to add flexibility. The hinge is also predicted to perturb folding. The molecular mechanics of filamins are probed here by AFM-forced extension, with a particular focus on the ∼30 aa hinge between repeats R15 and R16. After re-examining full-length filamin to clarify the single molecule limit for AFM experiments on long chains, short concatemers of (R15-R16)m and (R15-hinge-R16)m were studied by both AFM and solution structural methods. AFM shows that the hinged isoform extends and unfolds at smaller forces (60 pN) than the hinge-less form (80 pN), implying that the alternative splicing introduces a random coil that softens both adjacent domains. Circular Dichroism confirms that the hinge is a random coil, and thermal unfolding in solution suggests a weak destabilization by the hinge. Together with the rate-dependence of forced extension in AFM, the results reveal added resilience as the unfolding transition shifts to longer lengths upon insertion of the alternatively spliced hinge.

Abstract:
Research Centre Rez solves several safety related projects dealing with safety of Czech NPPs, some of which require fully functioning Three Dimensional (3D) model of the reactor core. While in a number of safety analysis of various accident scenarios it is sufficient to use one point reactor kinetics, there are selected types of accidents in which it is useful to model the space (3D) neutron kinetics, in particular control rod ejections, boron dilution scenarios, including transitions from design basis to beyond design basis accidents. This paper is focused to analyze the present model of the core of VVER1000/V320 reactor. Which is applicable for 3D modeling of neutron kinetics in selected design and beyond design basis accidents. The model is based on a cross-sections library created by SCALE 6.1.2/TRITON simulations. PARCS 3.2 code uses homogenized cross-sections libraries to calculate neutronic and other core parameters of the PWR reactors. Similar model is prepared with MCNP6 for comparison between deterministic (Pn spherical-harmonics method used in PARCS) and the stochastic (Monte Carlo) approach (used in MCNP6). Such comparison will serve as a demonstration of the capability of the PARCS code for VVER1000/V320 analyses.
