Abstract:
Over the past 7 decades, there have been persistent but marginalized voices within our field calling for clinicians to be trained and competent in culturally responsive approaches to treatment and supervision. The voices are myriad. Yet these voices have consistently been diminished. Despite scholarly work to support the call for practitioners to incorporate training and practices that recognize race, ethnic heritage, racism, socio‐economic status, power, and privilege as key elements that contribute to the unique challenges and strengths of the patients we serve, the predominant assessments, interventions, and supervisory curricula remain devoid of such inclusion.

Abstract:
Before coming to Notre Dame, I had little experience in conversing with those who represent a different background than my own. Raised in private schools with little diversity, I spent my time learning about the oppressed rather than interacting with them directly. This past semester, I took a course called “Writing for Social Justice” in which I had the opportunity to interview Sheila, a blind woman living in the South Bend area. Through a series of interviews, I had the privilege to hear Sheila’s story. Sheila’s life history consists of HIV, drug abuse, compassion, loss, and empowerment. Interacting directly with Sheila, a woman who represents a reality much different from my own, taught me the value in listening; I now realize that optimal human growth arises with an open mind and heart. Sheila’s battle with HIV and other unjustified trauma led me to research the impact of HIV on the African American community further. This essay celebrates the strength of Sheila while emphasizing that HIV remains a disproportional threat to African American individuals. By sharing Sheila's story, I hope to demonstrate the power in a different reality and encourage others to listen with empathy.

Abstract:
There are very few sources available to historians which allow us to hear the voices of Anglo-American women. How can we understand what ordinary women believed were their responsibilities to their families and communities and the responsibilities of their government to them? Petitions provide historians with one of the few opportunities to “hear” non-elite women voice their concerns. In provincial New Hampshire, women regularly approached the royal government with individual requests. By viewing the rights associated with petitioning, the procedure involved, and the variety of applications for petition use, female agency in colonial society becomes more apparent. Through petitions, it is possible to understand under what circumstances women turned to the government for assistance, and under what circumstances the government granted their petitions.

Abstract:
In South African Human Rights Commission v Standard Bank of South Africa Ltd 2023 (3) SA 36 (CC), the Constitutional Court held that a bank is not obliged to take a foreclosure matter to the magistrate’s court, even if the magistrate’s court has jurisdiction over the matter. The apex court confirmed that a court is not entitled to decline to hear a matter properly brought before it because another court has concurrent jurisdiction. Before this decision, the Gauteng and Eastern Cape Divisions of the High Court both found that the High Court was entitled to decline to hear a matter if the matter fell within the jurisdiction of a magistrate’s court. These decisions were taken on appeal to the Supreme Court of Appeal, which upheld the appeal and found that the High Court has no power to refuse to hear a matter falling within its jurisdiction on the ground that another court has concurrent jurisdiction. The Constitutional Court has now confirmed the decision by the Supreme Court of Appeal, finding that complex matters such as foreclosure applications deserve more judicial scrutiny, and ought to be heard by the High Court.

Abstract:
The authors examine consumer activism as a form of power used by individuals when they experience a perceived failure with organizational service performance. Consumer citizens demonstrate the power of their voices through digital vigilantism consisting of injurious and constructive digital content sharing. The authors use agency theory and power concepts to study an instance in which a public service provider breached consumer performance expectations. They study digital responses to the 2017 Charlottesville Unite the Right rally because an independent review found the public service providers culpable. Tweets (n = 73,649) were analyzed utilizing qualitative thematic coding, cluster analysis, and sentiment analysis. Consumer conversations (tweets) during and after the rally yielded five types of digital vigilantism characterized by the following consumer voice clusters: “Shame on them!”, “Hear ye, hear ye…”, “Can you believe this?”, “Let’s get ‘em!”, and “Do the right thing.” The authors also present a new facet of digital vigilantism represented by the pessimistic and optimistic power of consumer voice. Several proactive and reactive responses are presented for policy and practice when responding to digital vigilantism.

Abstract:
Research on prosodic influences on syntactic structures is particularly relevant in the context of modern media, where the quality and impact of speech are crucial. Contemporary news discourse is characterized by high competition for the audience's attention, so understanding the role of prosodic elements can aid in creating more engaging and effective content. With the rapid development of technology and changing ways of consuming information, researching such aspects of speech contributes to adapting news formats to the needs of the modern listener. The aim of this study is to analyze how intonation, rhythm, pauses, and stress can alter or emphasize syntactic constructions in speech, specifically in news discourse. The research methodology includes methods such as analysis, psycholinguistic methods, and content analysis. The study concludes that in news discourse, prosodic elements are essential for conveying information in a way that is understandable, attention-grabbing, and memorable for listeners. For example, a pause before important information or a rise in pitch to emphasize certain news can significantly affect audience perception. Prosody, which includes intonation, rhythm, and stress, plays a crucial role in shaping the perception and understanding of information by listeners. Specific examples from news programs are analyzed, where prosodic characteristics change or enhance the meaning of individual syntactic constructions. It has been established that the correct use of prosody can improve the communicative effectiveness and impact of news content. Cases are also examined where prosodic elements contribute to creating certain emotional reactions in listeners, thereby influencing their opinions about the presented information.

Abstract:
Scandalous racial ideas are woven into the very fabric of some of the most cherished concepts of modern biblical scholarship. In his book Racializing Jesus, Shawn Kelley argues that race plays an essential role in the construction of a dizzying amount of cherished scholarly categories. Central to his argument is the claim that the category of parable is decidedly problematic because it emerges from, and is rendered coherent by, some of the most toxic elements of modern racialized ideology. Parable scholarship has long drawn its fundamental interpretive ideas from specific, modern views concerning the nature and power of symbolic and metaphoric language. Unfortunately these categories have a long and rather unseemly history, and they derive their power from this history. Behind the moving language of art, freedom and higher consciousness lurk the less appealing world of nationalism, race and ethnic purity. Escaping the later almost certainly means, at least for a time, learning to live without the former. This means that New Testament scholars and historical Jesus scholars would do well to put aside the category of parable. Parable scholarship envisions the powerful words forcing the hearer to make a stark choice, but perhaps the choice belongs instead to the biblical scholars: embrace these aesthetic categories along with their deeply troubling ideological baggage, or give up on the scholarly category of parable in its entirety.

Abstract:
Le design de machines thermiques menant à une puissance maximale dépend souvent des températures de la source chaude et de la source froide. C’est pourquoi dégager des lignes directrices à partir des designs optimaux de ces machines selon diverses températures d’opération peut faciliter leur conception. Une telle étude est proposée par cette thèse pour deux types de systèmes thermiques. En premier lieu, le cycle de Rankine organique (ORC) est un cycle thermodynamique de puissance utilisé entre autres dans les centrales géothermiques exploitant des réservoirs à basse température. Depuis quelques années, ce type de centrales suscite un vif intérêt à travers le monde, étant un des modes de production de puissance parmi les plus respectueux de l’environnement. Il s’agit de pomper un géofluide du sol pour transférer sa chaleur à un fluide de travail qui opère en cycle fermé, et de le réinjecter ensuite dans le bassin géologique. Les chercheurs tentent actuellement de mieux caractériser le potentiel géothermique de divers environnements géologiques. Le sous-sol du Québec est relativement froid, alors des études essaient de déterminer s’il serait possible d’y exploiter de manière rentable des centrales géothermiques. Une autre question de recherche importante est de savoir, pour un contexte donné, quel est le design optimal d’une centrale géothermique et quelle est la puissance que l’on peut espérer produire. Pour répondre à cette question, les cycles de Rankine organiques de base (de type souscritique ou transcritique) sont dans un premier temps simulés et optimisés pour des températures du géofluide de 80 à 180°C et pour des températures de condensation du fluide de travail de 0.1 à 50°C. Trente-six (36) fluides pures sont investigués pour toutes les combinaisons de températures. Par la suite, des cycles de Rankine organiques plus avancés sont aussi investigués (ajout d’une tour de refroidissement, d’un système de récupération, et d’une contrainte sur la température de réinjection du géofluide). Les ORCs avec deux pressions de chauffage souscritique et transcritique sont aussi simulés et optimisés. Les optimisations sont faites pour 20 fluides de travail selon la même plage de température du géofluide et selon des températures du thermomètre mouillé de l’air ambient de 10 à 32°C. En second lieu, le cycle de Brayton inversé (IBC) est un cycle thermodynamique qui pourrait être utilisé comme système de récupération de la chaleur perdue dans les gaz d’échappement de moteurs. Il s’agit d’un cycle ouvert comprenant dans sa configuration de base une turbine à gaz, un échangeur de chaleur et un compresseur. Il existe une configuration où l’eau qui se condense lors du refroidissement des gaz est évacuée avant le compresseur pour réduire le débit massique et améliorer le rendement global du système. Le Powertrain and Vehicle Research Centre (PVRC) de l’University of Bath s’est intéressé à savoir si certaines variantes de l’IBC découlant de cette configuration seraient des options viables. Ces variantes ont mené à la création de trois nouveaux cycles thermodynamiques couplant l’IBC avec (i) une turbine à vapeur, (ii) un cycle de réfrigération, et (iii) ces deux ajouts. En comptant les deux cycles déjà existants décrits au paragraphe précédent, cinq configurations de l’IBC sont simulées et optimisées pour des températures de gaz d’échappement de 600 à 1200 K et températures de la source froide de 280 à 340 K. La finalité de cette thèse est d’offrir un outil aidant les ingénieurs à concevoir les systèmes introduits précédemment (ORC et IBC) de sorte qu’ils aient un travail spécifique net maximisé. Sous forme d’un ensemble de diagrammes, cet outil peut ainsi être utilisé pour une large plage de température de la source chaude (géofluide ou gaz d’échappement) et de température de la source froide.
Heat engines design leading to maximum power output often depends on the hot source temperature and the cold source temperature. This is why drawing guidelines from optimal designs of these machines according to diverse operating temperatures may facilitate their conception. Such a study is proposed by this thesis for two types of heat engines. In the first instance, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is a power thermodynamic cycle used among others in geothermal power plants exploiting low-temperature reservoirs. This type of power plants raises keen interest around the world for being one the most environmentally friendly power production modes. In these power plants, a geofluid is pumped from the ground to transfer its heat to a working fluid operating in a closed cycle. The geofluid is then reinjected in the geological basin. Researchers are currently attempting to characterize in a better way the geothermal potential of diverse geological environments. Considering the province of Québec’s relatively cold underground, studies try to determinate whether it is possible to profitably operate geothermal power plants. Another important research question is to determine, for a given context, the optimal geothermal power plant design, and the amount of power that could be generated. To answer this question, Organic Rankine Cycles (subcritical and transcritical) are first simulated and optimized for geofluid temperatures from 80 to 180°C and for condensing temperatures of the working fluid from 0.1 to 50°C. Thirty-six (36) pure fluids are investigated for each temperature combination. Next, cycles models are improved by adding a cooling tower, a recuperative system and a constraint on the minimum reinjection temperature. ORCs with dual-pressure heater are simulated and optimized as well. Optimization runs are performed considering 20 working fluids for the same range of geofluid temperature and for ambient air wet bulb temperature from 10 to 32°C. In the second instance, the Inverted Brayton Cycle (IBC) is a thermodynamic cycle that could be used as a waste heat recovery system for engines exhaust gases. This is an open cycle which includes a gas turbine, a heat exchanger and a compressor as a basic layout. There is a configuration where the water condensed during the cooling of the gases is evacuated upstream of the compressor in order to reduce the mass flow rate and improve the system global efficiency. The Powertrain and Vehicle Research Centre (PVRC) of the University of Bath is interested in finding out whether particular IBC variants arising from this configuration could be viable options. These variants led to the creation of three novel thermodynamic cycles that couple the IBC with (i) a steam turbine, (ii) a refrigeration cycle, and (iii) both additions. Including both already existing cycles described in the preceding paragraph, five IBC layouts are simulated and optimized for exhaust gases temperatures from 600 to 1200 K and for heat sink temperatures from 280 to 340 K. The purpose of this thesis is to offer a tool that help engineers designing the systems previously introduced (ORC and IBC), so that they produced a maximized specific work output. As a set of charts, this tool can be used for a large range of hot source temperature (geofluid or exhaust gases) and of heat sink temperature.

Abstract:

As part of the energy recovery part of the ROMA (Resource Optimization and recovery in the Materials industry) project, a laboratory prototype power production system is being built and completed in 2009. The laboratory prototype is based on a new technology for power production from low to medium temperature heat sources (the off gas from electrolysis cells in the aluminum industry) where CO2 is used as a working medium in a trans-critical Rankine cycle. The laboratory rig consists of the power cycle with a prototype expander as the core unit, an air loop to provide the heat, and an ethylene glycol loop to provide condensation of the working fluid in the power cycle. As a preparation to the assembling and instrumentation of the prototype rig, a simulation and an uncertainty analysis were conducted for the prototype rig in the autumn of 2008. This report focuses on the continuation of that work by an experimental investigation of the individual loops and the components of the prototype rig. The emphasis of this investigation has been put on the air loop and the expander unit of the power cycle. This is basically because these are of great importance to the performance of the power production prototype rig. The air loop was thoroughly tested, and from the investigations it was discovered that there was an unfavorable temperature distribution of the air going into the air-to-CO2 heat exchanger. This is the heat exchanger where heat is provided to the power cycle. The source for this temperature maldistribution was identified, and solutions were investigated to improve on the problem without results. The reduced performance of the air loop was incorporated in a new simulation of the power cycle in order to quantify the consequences for the optimization of the power cycle. The simulation was carried out for warm air temperature of 80 °C. The new calculations showed a reduction in maximum net work output of 27 % compared to the original simulation. The optimal conditions for the power cycle were also changed as a consequence of the reduced air loop performance. The investigation of the expander unit revealed that the expander isentropic efficiency was a strong function of the pressure difference across the expander, and a weak function of the expander inlet pressure. It also revealed that overall the isentropic efficiency was much less than the value of 80 % which was used in the original simulation. A new simulation of the power cycle was carried out where the expander isentropic efficiency was incorporated as a function of the pressure difference across the expander. This function was based on the data from the expander testing. The simulation showed a reduction in maximum net work output from 225 W to about 60 W, for warm air temperature of 80 °C. The new expander characteristics also affected the optimization of the power cycle. The simulation results and the results from the prototype investigation will be important in the optimization and control procedures of the assembled prototype power production system.

Abstract:
SummaryThis Master Thesis is a conclusion on work done as part of the Resource Optimizationand recovery in the Materials industry project (Roma). This project is involved in thedevelopment of a new technology for power production from low temperature heat sourcesfor off gases from aluminum production cells. The technology is based on an transcriticalRankine cycle with CO2 as a working fluid, as the work recovery circuit. The center ofthe test facility is the expander, a prototype provided by Obrist Engineering . 81 testswere perfomed to investigate the behavoir of the expander cycle. Effect of three mainparameters were investigated:• Effect CO2 massflow rate• Effect of heat source temperature• Effect of CO2 condensation pressureFor each parameter combination, the high pressure side of the expander cycle was variedin order to find the maximum power output.This study clearly showed limitation of the turbine which cannot maintain large pressuredifference probably due to large internal leakages. As a result, turbine outlet is highlysuperheated. This superheat is lost energy for the power cycle, and is simply dumpedinto the heat sink. One possible improvement would be to include a recuperator thatrecovers superheat after the pump.The results also indicate that the fan of the air loop is too small: increasing the CO2 flowrate to limit superheat at turbine outlet leads to turbine inlet temperature reduction.Last, for large CO2 mass flow rate (3.5 kgmin) which is required for proper operation ofthe turbine, the power generated is too large for the generator installed on the loop. Itstemperature reached 120 °C for some conditions. A new solution should be seeked.Based on experimental results, a mode of the power cycle was implemented in Pro/IIand simulations were run in order to find an improved design. The main goal is to beable to run the cycle at high CO2 mass flow rate: 3.5 kgmin. It was found that the airloop fan should be able to deliver up to 1 260 m3h . The new generator or braking systemshould be able to absorb up to 297 W.

Abstract:
In order to reach targets on reducing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil resources it is necessary to reduce energy losses in production processes. In polygeneration, several processes are combined to complement each other to avoid sub-optimization of the standalone processes. This thesis addresses polygeneration with focus on Combined Heat and Power (CHP) production integrated with other processes. Biomass-fired CHP plants are commonly dimensioned to have surplus heat production capacity during periods with lower heat demand. At the same time, production of biomass based vehicle fuels and fuel upgrading are heat demanding processes. The opportunity to combine CHP with ethanol production from lignocellulosic feedstock and torrefaction with the aim of replacing fossil fuels are used as cases during the evaluation of polygeneration. Simulation models are used to investigate the performance of CHP integrated with production of ethanol and torrefaction. Measured data from commercial CHP plants have been used to reflect the operation boundaries. The findings show that polygeneration can compete with stand-alone production in both energy and economic performance. Polygeneration offers a wider operating range where reduced minimum load gives increased annual operating time. Therefore, under limited heat demand more renewable electricity production is possible due to increased operating hours and steam extraction from the turbine during part-load operation. Resource availability and fluctuations in fuel price have the largest impact on the profit of polygeneration. Other aspects that have substantial effects on the economy in polygeneration are the electricity spot price and subsidies. Furthermore, it has been proven that the yield of each product in a multiproduct process plant, the size of the plant and the heat demand have a large impact on the economy. Polygeneration turns by-products into buy-products.

Novel methods to convert waste metabolic heat into useful and useable amounts of electricity were studied. Thermoelectric, magneto hydrodynamic, and piezo-electric energy conversions at the desired scope were evaluated to understand their role and utility in the efficient conversion of waste body heat. The piezo-electric generator holds the most promise for the efficient conversion of waste body heat into electricity. In the future, this same device could be easily extended into a combustion based power plant. An experimental apparatus investigating the use of magneto hydrodynamics was designed, built, and tested. A room temperature liquid inetal was propelled through a magneto hydrodynamic channel of 4 inches by 0.1875 inches at a rate of 10 mL/s. A 2 T induction field was applied within the channel. However, the results of the analysis did not find the magneto hydrodynamic device to be an effective electric generator at the scale tested.

Abstract:
The central purpose of this thesis is to study the familiar processes of quantum information theory from a thermodynamic point of view. Chapter 1 introduces equilibrium thermodynamics and its laws. The laws are then motivated in a statistical mechanics approach which explicitly employs the language of quantum information theory. Chapter 2 is dedicated to the concept of work extraction, in particular in non- equilibrium scenarios. In this context a generalised notion of equilibrium called passivity is introduced. The chapter's final section gives an introduction and an overview of various approaches to work extraction ranging from classical to explicitly quantum scenarios. Chapter 3 considers the question of powerful unitary operations. Focussing on the case of qubits (or rather wits, short for 'work bits') the chapter's first result is an explicit protocol for maximally powerful driving for any given initial state. Building onto this, the chapter's second main result is a proof that the evolution time (and hence the power of the corresponding work deposition process) can be decreased by a factor of 1/N for an array of N wits if global driving is permitted (rather than individual driving in parallel). Lastly, the thermodynamics of completely-positive and trace-preserving (CPTP) maps is considered in Chapter 4. It is shown that the energy change during such a process can be split into three parts: a work-like equilibrium contribution, a heat-like equilibrium contribution, and a third genuinely non-equilibrium energy difference. All three terms obtain their meaning when considering how much work can be extracted from the input and output state of the CPTP process, respectively. Furthermore, the identification of work and heat in this manner complies with a recently published version of the second law, which applies to the same class of processes. This is demonstrated by considering unital and thermal maps.

Abstract:
AbstractRecent work on clinical communication has highlighted the possibility that vulnerable young people may experience epistemic injustice and have their sense of agency undermined in encounters with mental healthcare providers. In particular, five dimensions of agency have been studied: validation of the person’s perspective; legitimisation of the person’s concerns; acknowledgement that the person may have complex interests and needs; affirmation of the person’s capacity to contribute to change; and inclusion of the person in shared decision-making processes. Building on previous work in this area, and utilising the illustrative power of Aesop-style fables, we identify three potential areas where empirical investigation could help advance the study of epistemic injustice in interactions involving young people who hear voices.

Abstract:
AbstractA philosophical approach to musical expression as not necessary but desirable. Pure music as philosophical and instrumental (F. Schlegel). Philosophy and art fulfilling the same mission—to bring a person face to face with the mystery of transcendence (A. Šliogeris). The “secret” and “public” sides of philosophy described by A. Šliogeris: comparison with the inner form and text of music. The philosophical and everyday view of things; Plato’s allegory of the cave; paideia (A. Šliogeris). The concept of beauty as articulated by Aristotle (kalokagathia), St Augustine (unity, proportionality), I. Kant (purposiveness), J. Maritain (brilliance of form). The ability to apply philosophical ideas can deepen an understanding of the subject of music: the ability to hear the voice of the spirit of the being, that is, the creative work (M. Heiddeger), stimulates the possibility of expression. Knowledge works as a tool of power (A. Mickevičius; F. Nietzsche).

Abstract:
Based on the single blow technique, experimental research was conducted for the performance of heat transfer and flow drop for six test cores with cross corrugated (CC) or corrugated undulated (CU) primary surfaces for different geometries. After the mathematical model was established for heat transfer under the condition of single blow, a matching numerical solution was obtained for different NTU. The correlations of hear transfer factor j and friction factor f were obtained for three types of cross corrugated primary surfaces (crossed angle 45∼75°) with a range of Re = 120∼800 and three types of corrugated undulated primary surfaces (crossed angle 52.5∼67.5°) with a range of Re = 200∼1200. Hydraulic diameters of all heat transfer surfaces are from 1.2∼1.48mm. Analysis on the flow and heat transfer for cross corrugated and corrugated undulated primary surfaces was made based on the comprehensive evaluating factor j/f. The experimental results were compared to references with good consistency. The regressive errors of correlations were less than 16%.

Abstract:
Numerical calculations are performed to simulate the tip leakage flow and heat transfer on the GE-E3 High-Pressure-Turbine (HPT) rotor blade. The calculations are performed for a single blade with periodic conditions imposed along the two boundaries in the circumferential-pitch direction. Cases considered are a flat blade tip at three different tip gap clearances of 1%, 1.5% and 2.5% of the blade span. The numerical results are obtained for two different pressure ratios (ratio of inlet total pressure to exit static pressure) of 1.2 and 1.32 and an inlet turbulence level of 6.1%. To explore the effect of turbulence models on the heat transfer results, three different models of increasing complexity and computational effort (standard high Re k-ε model, RNG k-ε and Reynolds Stress Model) are investigated. The predicted tip heat transfer results are compared with the experimental data of Azad [1], and show satisfactory agreement with the data. Hear transfer predictions for all three turbulence models are comparable, and no significant improvements are obtained with the Reynolds-stress model.

Abstract:
For electric energy generation, the design organizations of China have developed variants of floating nuclear plants. Depending on the customer requirement one or more power plants could operating in the same sea area at a time. To achieve a high degree of reactor safety, the passive core cooling subsystems is utilized widely on the floating nuclear plants. This paper conducted a preliminary design of the passive residual heat removal system (PRHRS), which is very important for decay hear removal under the ship blackout accident, used on floating nuclear plants. The limitations due to ocean environment including condition of sea wave and wind, space availability and weight limitations have be considered in the design stage. The computation model of PRHRS was established by use RELAP program. The transient behaviors of PRHRS are simulated. The results showed that PRHRS of floating nuclear plants could achieve the function of remove decay heat and keep reactor core safe under the ship blackout accident with the impact of ocean environment.

Full text
Abstract:
Plant-based proteins have been on the rise over the past few years, with U.S. retail sales of plant-based proteins hitting $7 billion in 2020. Sustainability is at the forefront of this shift, especially as Gen Z and Millennials continue to gain purchasing power. Today, 42 percent of Americans believe their individual food or beverage purchases can have moderate to significant impact on the environment. And of those who view this as significant, 67 percent say environmental sustainability is a key purchase driver in their food choices, according to IFICF. As plant-based protein options become increasingly popular, it is important for companies to find new, effective ways to market not only the nutritional benefits, but also the sustainability of the ingredients to meet growing consumer preferences. This creates an ongoing challenge for companies that now have to balance differentiating themselves from other brands in the growing market, while also highlighting the benefits of individual sources of plant-based proteins to consumers. In this presentation, we'll take a deep dive into why companies are turning toward plant-based proteins and how they are marketing the sustainability of product ingredients to consumers to help drive industry growth and accountability. Hear from plant-based protein expert and consultant, Jean Heggie, on 1) the growing consumer demand for sustainable ingredients and product traceability, 2) how food companies are adapting to this industry shift and 3) why sustainability marketing plays a key role in plant-based product growth. Jean will share information on the recently launched on-package Sustainable U.S. Soy Mark as a powerful case study example. Attendees will also hear about research that illuminates sustainability food trends, as well as new information on the sustainability and nutrition of plant-based proteins, like soy.

Abstract:
Pipelines are widely used in energy power system including thermal power plants and nuclear power plants. In the power system, especially nuclear power plants, as thermal stratification characteristic of nonuniform temperature distribution in the pipe and thermal fatigue such as the low cycle thermal fatigue due to existence of the cycle thermal stress are inevitable, the pipe line system can be destroyed easily and thus affect the normal operation of the power plants. In order to study the pipeline thermal fatigue, the pipeline thermal stress needs to be calculated and therefore the temperature distributions especially the inner wall temperature was needed. The outer wall temperature and working fluid temperature can be obtained with installing measuring tools. The key and difficult point is the estimation of the inner temperature distribution of the pipe. At the same time, in the practical engineering, the pipeline structure with special safety requirements or higher requirements for structural completeness are not allowed to be destroyed by the measuring equipment. Based on the consideration above, this paper presents a method of solving the inverse heat conduction problem, which means the inner temperature distributions can be derived by the outer wall temperature distributions. For the pipe inverse heat conduction problem, this paper applies numerical analysis as the main way. Firstly, the method for transient inverse heat conduction problems applying separation of variables and Duhamel’s theorem is established. As the effects of the random error on the measured outer wall temperature are inevitable, the measured data need to be smoothed before used as an input. The Gram orthogonal polynomial method based on the digital filtering theory is applied in this paper to accomplish the smoothing process. The inverse process is accomplished by using MATLAB programming. Then this method is verified in the experiment with high temperature and high pressure. In order to directly validate the accuracy of the inverse analysis, for the test section, not only the transient outer wall temperature and fluid temperature were measured, but also the time dependent middle layer temperature were measured. Then the middle layer temperature obtained from inverse calculation was compared with the measured data from the experiment. The calculated results show that the accuracy of this method is high. The temperature distributions along the radical direction can be obtained quickly and accurate instantaneous heat load for the structural stress analysis and thermal fatigue analysis can be provided using this method.

Abstract:
In response to the technical challenges faced by aging plant systems and components at nuclear power plants (NPP), the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has a product entitled Integrated Life Cycle Management (ILCM). The ILCM software is a quantitative tool that supports capital asset and component replacement decision-making at NPPs. ILCM is comprised of models that predict the probability of failure (PoF) over time for various high-value components such as steam generators, turbines, generators, etc. The PoF models allow the user to schedule replacements at the optimum time, thereby reducing unplanned equipment shutdowns and costs. This paper describes a mathematical model that was developed for critical heat exchangers in a power plant. The heat exchanger model calculates the probability of the tubes, shell, or internals failing individually, and then accumulates the failures across the heat exchanger sub-components. The dominant degradation mechanisms addressed by the model include stress corrosion cracking, wear, microbiologically influenced corrosion, flow accelerated corrosion, and particle-induced erosion. The heat exchanger model combines physics-based algorithms and operating experience distributions to predict the cumulative PoF over time. The model is applicable to shell and tube heat exchangers and air-to-water heat exchangers. Many different types of fluids including open cycle fresh water, closed cycle fresh water, sea water, brackish water, air, closed cooling water, steam, oil, primary water, and condensate are included. Examples of PoF over time plots are also provided for different fluid types and operating conditions.

Abstract:
Effects of the tube array, such as in-line and staggered, on void-fraction distribution and heat transfer coefficient around a tube were experimentally investigated. The test section was vertical duct with inner size of 90 × 90 mm2. Diameter of the tubes was 15 mm, and the pitch-to-diameter ratio was 1.5 for both tube bundles. Working fluids were air and water. Experiments were carried out at superficial gas velocity defined at minimum area section, Jg, of 0.10 to 0.89 m/s, superficial liquid velocity, Jl, of 0.1 to 0.3 m/s, under the atmospheric condition. Measurements of void-fraction distribution were carried out using X-ray radiography. In addition, heat transfer coefficient around a tube was measured and the heat transfer coefficients in association with the flow regime and the void-fraction distribution were evaluated. Time-average void-fraction was higher around upstream of a tube than that of downstream at bubbly flow condition for both bundles. Under intermittent flow condition, time-average void fraction at the maximum gap were higher than that around the other points in both tube bundles. For in-line tube bundle, enhancement of the heat transfer clearly appeared between ±90 to 180°. For staggered tube bundle, the heat transfer increased all over the pipe.

Abstract:
Coal-fired power generation will continue to be the cornerstone of China’s energy sources in the coming decades and advanced ultra-supercritical technology is the future of coal-fired power generation. This paper selects double reheat cycle design for study and incorporates back pressure extraction steam turbine (BEST) into current cycle design, which used to drive boiler feed water pump and feed regenerative heaters. This design prevailed in US in 1960s and gradually was replaced by condensing turbine due to less efficiency benefits at subcritical steam condition. Reinvention of BEST design in current double reheat cycle is an evitable choice, because the efficiency advantage is improved at USC steam condition. BEST configuration incorporated into current double reheat cycle and advanced cycle is developed to compare with other two conventional systems in this study. Thermodynamic simulation at design and off-design condition shows that BEST configuration has an obvious efficiency advantage at design load, but the advantage decreases at partial load. BEST expansion line and reheat pressure is integrated in cycle heat rate optimization. Genetic algorithm is chosen to implement the optimization and exergy analysis method is utilized to evaluate BEST expansion line optimization results. Finally, BEST design limitation and future work is practically concluded.

Abstract:
Workplace spirituality has been defined as a framework for organizational values that is part of the culture, connection, and future. AKA is a small woman-owned, spirit-led business. Our mission and vision direct us toward programs, research, evaluation, and communities that match our values, theories, and interests. Because spirituality is essential for wellness, well teams, and well communities, we designed this study to explore AKA team member views about spirituality and how they incorporate spirituality in their work. The following research questions to guide this study: 1) What are some spiritual practices of AKA team members? and 2) How do spiritual practices influence the inner self, outer self, and team/clients? Methods: Data for this study were collected from AKA Associates with Zoom interviews from May 2023 to July 2023. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed using Otter.ai, cleaned, and coded using thematic analysis. Results: The research team contacted twelve AKA associates; nine were eligible to participate. Two were male, and seven were female. The thematic analysis revealed three major workplace spirituality themes: beliefs, practices, and experiences. Spiritual beliefs varied among the team. Many cited a belief in God or a higher power. Others mentioned goodness, altruism, and a Divine connection to the path they are on. Practices have to do with the outer self and what we do, what we see, and what we hear. AKA associates’ practices vary from prayer, journaling, forgiveness, burning sage, being in nature, attending church, having joy, gratitude, and involvement in church/faith communities. AKA associates talked about their varied experiences, including service, generosity, empowerment, grounding, integrity/accountability, advocacy, and authenticity. Discussion: This qualitative study found that beliefs, practices, and experiences create connections and enduring relationships. Within the AKA team, beliefs varied about spirituality. Some believed in a Creator or God; others talked about a higher power, goodness, or nothing. Spirituality in the workplace has the potential to improve the health and well-being of employees and clients served. Spiritual beliefs vary within individuals and organizations; what is most important is the experiences that result from a spiritual orientation. When personal, organizational, and spiritual values align, growth, creativity, and innovation happen.

Abstract:
When humans engage with video, their brain and body interact in response to sensory input. To investigate these interactions, we recorded and are releasing a dataset from N=178 participants across five experiments featuring short online educational videos. This dataset comprises approximately 110 hours of multimodal data including electrocardiogram (ECG), heart rate, respiration, breathing rate, pupil size, electrooculogram (EOG), gaze position, saccades, blinks, fixations, head movement, and electroencephalogram (EEG). Participants viewed 3-6 videos (mean total duration: 28±5 min) to test attentional states (attentive vs. distracted), memory retention (multiple-choice questions), learning scenarios (incidental vs. intentional), and an intervention (monetary incentive). Demographic data, ADHD self-report (ASRS), and working memory assessments (digit span) were collected. Basic statistics and noteworthy effects: increased alpha power in a distracted condition, broadband EEG power increases from posterior to anterior scalp, increased blink-rate, and decreased saccade-rate in distracted and intervention conditions. All modalities are time-aligned with stimuli and standardized using BIDS, making the dataset valuable for researchers investigating attention, memory, and learning in naturalistic settings.

Abstract:
Geothermal energy is a source of low-carbon, homegrown, renewable energy. It is available throughout the UK and can provide heat or power all year long independent of weather conditions. It currently delivers less than 0.3% of the UK's annual heat demand, using only a fraction of the estimated available geothermal heat resource. There is the potential to increase this proportion significantly, but this will require long-term government support to develop a route to market and overcome high upfront capital costs and geological development risks.
