Abstract:
Past research has indicated that nearly half of college-aged women who experience forced, nonconsensual sexual intercourse, do not label their experience as rape. We found evidence that these unacknowledged rape victims possess more violent, stranger rape scripts than do acknowledged rape victims, who are more likely to have an acquaintance rape script. The difference in rape scripts between acknowledged and unacknowledged rape victims was not due to different demographics or actual rape experience. However, unacknowledged victims did have a sexual history which involved less force than did acknowledged victims. Apparently, most unacknowledged victims do not define their rape experience as rape because they have a rape script of a violent, stranger, blitz rape which does not match their experience of being raped in a less forceful manner by someone with whom they were acquainted. The extent to which their less forceful sexual histories is related to their more violent rape scripts remains to be investigated.

Abstract:
Previous research has shown that rape judgments can be influenced by several variables; however, it is not known whether these variables appear in rape scripts. Moreover, although the script concept has been applied to sexual behavior (e.g., Gagnon & Simon, 1973; Laws & Schwartz, 1977), researchers have only just begun to explore the content of sexual scripts. The present study explored college students' rape and seduction scripts. Twenty introductory psychology students were asked to write about the “typical” rape and the “typical” seduction. These scripts were coded on 20 common dimensions. Results showed that the rape and seduction scripts were very different. Most subjects described a blitz rape: a woman who was outdoors was attacked by a male stranger who was mentally or socially unfit. The assailant was very angry and aggressive and the victim, very afraid. In contrast, the seduction was more frequently indoors and often involved alcohol. The participants were sometimes strangers and both sexes could initiate the event. Nevertheless, subjects disagreed as to the outcome. Finally, two interesting sex differences emerged in the current study. Implications of the current results for rape education were drawn.

Abstract:
Scripts are influential in shaping sexual behaviors. Prior studies have examined the influence of individuals’ rape scripts. However, these scripts have not been evaluated among diverse groups. The current study examined the rape scripts of African American ( n = 72) and European American ( n = 99) college women. Results supported three rape scripts: the “real rape,” the “party rape,” and the mismatched intentions rape, that were equally common. However, there were some differences, with African Americans’ narratives more often including active victim resistance and less often containing victim vulnerability themes. Societal and cultural influences on rape scripts are discussed.

Abstract:
This article compares U.S. and Kenyan media representations of an incident at a Kenyan boarding school during which many young women were raped and several killed by their male schoolmates. The author's analysis of print media accounts reveals that how the press constructed the identities of “rapists” and “victims” relied on nationally specific stereotypes, myths, and scripts of rape and its relation to differences of culture, race, and rationality. U.S. accounts simultaneously explain the rapes by emphasizing difference and foreground legal constructions of rape identities that meat experiences of rape as essentially similar. The tension over difference and law in the U.S. accounts parallels the highly visible, though largely unproductive, debate among feminists pitting cultural relativism against legal universalism, and such dichotomized approaches preclude the development of politically useful conceptions of rape and rape identities. The analysis suggests that issues raised in the Kenyan press-the relation between sexual practices and rape and the state's role in furthering sexual violence-directed attention to complexities of rape and power elided by the m o w legal models pervasive in U. S . media and scholarly representations of rape. She concludes that fighting rape more effectively entails exposing limited representational practices and also attending to a broader range of understandings of rape and rape identities in various contexts

Abstract:
Bringing rape stories into popular discussion was a crucial success of the Second Wave Women’s Liberation movement. Popular culture is now inundated with rape stories. However, the repetitive scripts and schemas that dominate these are often informed by neoliberal individualism that is antithetical to feminism. The contradictions that characterize the tensions between feminism and neoliberalism in these texts are typically postfeminist, combining often inconsistent feminist rhetoric with neoliberal ideology. By examining the use of the silent victim script in young adult rape fiction, in this article I argue that most young adult rape fiction presents rape as an individual, pathological defect and a precondition to be managed by girls on an individual basis, rather than an act of violence committed against them.

Abstract:
This article offers an analysis of the construction of female bodies in adolescent fiction about rape, arguing that the absence of a developed rapist character results in a focus on and pathologising of female characters. This positions female bodies as the cause of rape, rather than societal problems or rapists themselves, creating ‘rape spaces’. The positioning of female bodies as the cause of rape sanctions public and state control of those bodies, removing a female's subjective agency and right to manage her own body. I demonstrate how the depiction of psychological relationships to bodies as they develop sexually during puberty and attract unwanted male attention can function within the narrative to undermine a girl's ability to manage her own body, and how female sexual desire can either undermine or reinforce a girl's ability to manage her own body. I analyse how fraught relationships to clothing and food can be either accepted and interpolated to reinforce the construction of female bodies as rape spaces within these texts, or problematised to portray empowered female characters as they recognise and reject them as potential tools of patriarchal control.

Abstract:
We developed measures assessing personal and normative attitudes toward two types of behaviors that are symptomatic of rape culture. We conceptualize sexual violence as existing on a continuum and argue that two types of behaviors may be potential antecedents to (and consequences of) sexual violence: attempts to pressure, which mimic the power dynamics of rape in a less aggressive fashion, and benevolent dating behaviors, which are accepted dating scripts in which men initiate action. We examined individuals’ acceptance of these behaviors in relation to their attitudes toward rape victims and among men to rape proclivity. This initial work suggests that these constructs and measures may be useful to investigate in future research.

Abstract:
Accompanying the high prevalence of rape among college women is a high prevalence of unacknowledged rape, or women who have been raped who do not label it as such. The current studies explore one theory which may help account for unacknowledged rape, script theory. Specifically, it may be that individuals have scripts for rape and seduction which overlap on a number dimensions, which may lead certain incidents of rape to be labeled seduction. Three studies were conducted to test the possible role of scripts in labeling an incident rape or not. In study 1, unique and overlapping elements of undergraduates' rape and seduction scripts were identified using a free-writing task and a questionnaire. In study 2, an ambiguous sexual scenario was developed. In study 3, script salience was manipulated by labeling the ambiguous scenario as either rape or seduction. This manipulation had little effect on participants' characterization of the scenario. However, results of internal analyses suggested that what script was activated affected participants' beliefs about the outcome of the scenario for the woman as well as their recall for the elements of the scenario. Implications of the results for the phenomenon of unacknowledged rape are discussed.

Abstract:
This essay discusses rape and silence in J.M. Coetzee’s novel Disgrace, with focus on how and why the characters Melanie and Lucy are silenced after being raped. Paying special attention to gender and race, as well as the novel’s South African context, an attempt is made to consider how rape is represented in Disgrace, and how this representation is related to the silence of Melanie and Lucy. The discussion’s theoretical framework is based on feminist theories on sexual violence and rape, as well as theory on cultural scripts, sexual scripts, and rape myths. This essay finds that the rapes in J.M. Coetzee’s Disgrace are representations of South Africa’s inverted racial power structures, and its traditional gender structures; structures that contribute to silencing Melanie and Lucy. This essay argues that Coetzee has deliberately activated South African cultural scripts in the text in an attempt to expose problematic viewpoints regarding gender and race in society, as well as in the reader.

Abstract:
Previous authors have suggested that reducing rape and sexual assault will require dismantling the rape culture that exists in the U.S. that supports and condones sexual violence against women (e.g., Brownmiller, 1975; Burt, 1980). Sexual media maintain rape culture by frequently portraying rape myths and sexual stereotypes (e.g., Cuklanz, 1999; Ward, 1995), like traditional heterosexual scripts. These portrayals then increase acceptance of these myths and stereotypes in viewers (e.g., Emmers-Sommer, Pauley, Hanzal,& Triplett, 2006; Kahlor & Eastin, 2011). A two-month longitudinal panel survey was conducted to better understand the theoretical mechanisms that may explain how college students' sexual media use may indirectly influence their propensity for engaging in unwanted hookups through their endorsement of traditional heterosexual scripts, sexual self-efficacy, and perceived peer norms. The results were different for men and women. For women, the results suggested that their sexual media diet at Time 1 increased their endorsement of traditional heterosexual scripts at Time 2, their endorsement of traditional heterosexual scripts at Time 1 increased their propensity for engaging in unwanted hookups at Time 2, and their propensity for engaging in unwanted hookups at Time 1 decreased their sexual self-efficacy at Time 2. For men, the results suggested that their sexual media diet at Time 1 decreased their sexual self-efficacy at Time 2 and their perceived peer norms regarding hookups at Time 1 increased their propensity for engaging in unwanted hookups at Time 2. Together the results suggest sexual media may be negatively impacting college students' sexual attitudes and beliefs and their sexual self-efficacy, which may lead them to be more likely to engage in unwanted hookups. Limitations and future directions are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
The pervasiveness of sexual violence on college campuses poses a significant problem for students and administrations that seek to promote healthy, safe, and equitable access to higher education. Although federal legislation under Title IX prohibits sexual violence as a form of gender discrimination, cultural climates that promote sexual violence—or rape cultures - continue to inform student experiences on college campuses. This thesis roots the discourse on campus sexual violence in the specific localized context at Scripps College. As a women’s college situated in a small, interconnected consortium of co-ed liberal arts colleges, the case of Scripps College raises critical questions about the ways in which gender and sexism play out on women’s bodies, and influence students’ experiences with embodiment on campus. In this thesis, I present a feminist analysis of the current institutional policies that address sexual violence on campus, in addition to the perspectives of eight student activists currently involved in gender justice work at Scripps College. Due to the fact that each of the Claremont Colleges, including Scripps, is currently in the process of re-evaluating their policies and grievance procedures that address sexual violence on campus, now is a key time to reflect on the past, present, and future of the Claremont Colleges and the role that these institutions play in either deconstructing or reinforcing patriarchal structures of power.

Abstract:
In this thesis, I trace my personal journey and the precursors of unlearning and conversation necessary to start to move towards anti-racism. With a focused look on specific aspects of feminist history, Scripps College as a place was historically contextualized. This allowed for an exploration of its student body, a look at the ways in which traditional gender meanings and expectations necessarily operate within that space. White students who claim the label feminist add complexity to that space, though their reactions to conversations of race can be traced back to the historic and gender over-determined systems of domination and victimhood that produce caustic white feminist tears. Finally, different ways of having difficult conversations are discussed, along with detailed understandings of why those conversations are necessary. In conclusion, I try to envision a kind of feminism that I would like myself and my peers to continue to work for, and emphasize again the sort of education that one must undergo in order to continue their awareness and work.

Abstract:
Dielectrophoresis (DEP), an electrokinetic force, is the motion of a polarizable particle in a non-uniform electric field. Contactless DEP (cDEP) is a recently developed cell sorting and isolation technique that uses the DEP force by capacitavely coupling the electrodes across the channel. The cDEP platform sorts cells based on intrinsic biophysical properties, is inexpensive, maintains a sterile environment by using disposable chips, is a rapid process with minimal sample preparation, and allows for immediate downstream recovery. This platform is highly competitive compared to other cell sorting techniques and is one of the only platforms to sort cells based on phenotype, allowing for the isolation of unique cell populations not possible in other systems. The original purpose of this work was to determine differences in the bioelectrical fingerprint between several critical cancer types. Results demonstrate a difference between Tumor Initiating Cells, Multiple Drug Resistant Cells, and their bulk populations for experiments conducted on three prostate cancer cell lines and treated and untreated MOSE cells. However, three significant issues confounded these experiments and challenged the use of the cDEP platform. The purpose of this work then became the development of solutions to these barriers and presenting a more commercializable cDEP platform. An improved analysis script was first developed that performs whole cell detection and cell tracking with an accuracy of 93.5%. Second, a loading system for doing smart sample handling, specifically cell focusing, was developed using a new in-house system and validated. Experimental results validated the model and showed that cells were successfully focused into a tight band in the middle of the channel. Finally, a proof of concept for an on-chip micropump is presented and achieved 4.5% in-plane deformation. When bonded over a microchannel, fluid flow was induced and measured. These solutions present a stronger, more versatile cDEP platform and make for a more competitive commercial product. However, these solutions are not just limited to the cDEP platform and may be applicable to multitudes of other microfluidic devices and applications.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the continuance of the MeToo movement in the Swedish context via the digitalplatform Instagram, collective action and feminist organizations that are engaged to end sexual violence.It illuminates how the sisterhood impacted by the practice of challenging the rape script a conceptused to describe the discourse on how sexual violence should be like, and how victim-survivors should behave, how the engagement is made among the activists that engage to challenge the rape script and lastly, how since the MeToo movement started a discourse of rightlessness have been exposed through the sharing of experiences that the MeToo movement initiated. The ethnographic study is based on participant observation of feminist actions in real life and on Instagram as well as interviews with 13 activists from feminist organizations and with background as organisers of collective actions. It is found that the MeToo movement in Sweden is commonly practiced through an engagement in Feminist organizations that serve to keep the movement alive through continuous work to keep sexual violence on the agenda by keeping it visible, and that the engagement is driven by an experience of anger towards the societal discourse that sets the discourse on rape which affects the possibility to be recognized by the legal system. The thesis will overall suggest that there is a sisterhood built on a collective identity, and that the shared identity and oppression between non-men with an aspiration to support one another in the experience of oppression as well as organize safety nets for those who are sentenced for defamation as a consequence of speaking out.

Full text
Abstract:
This 11-month study examined rates of encountering dung pellet groups, dung piles and ungulates in gallery forests and non-gallery forests during diurnal surveys in the Loma Mountains Non-Hunting Forest Reserve (LMNHFR) in Sierra Leone, West Africa. These indices of relative abundance were then used to infer relative habitat use by the seven ungulate species on which data were collected. This study also examined the differences in rates of encountering duikers during nocturnal surveys with rates of encountering duikers during diurnal surveys to determine which time of day produces higher rates of encounter, and thereby a more accurate estimate of duiker abundance. The dung of four of the seven species, namely Cephalophus niger, Philantomba maxwelli, Tragelaphus scriptus, and Potamochoerus porcus is encountered at a higher rate in gallery forest than in non-gallery forest. Rates of encountering the dung of three species, C. silvicultor, C. dorsalis and Syncerus caffer nanus, do not differ between forest types. Rates of encountering four species, namely C. niger, P. maxwelli, T. scriptus, and C. silvicultor are higher in gallery forest than in non-gallery forest. Rates of encountering three species, namely C. dorsalis, S. caffer nanus, and P. porcus do not differ between forest types. Rates of encountering duikers ranged from three to six times higher during nocturnal surveys than during diurnal surveys for C. niger and P. maxwelli and 20 times higher for C. dorsalis. Survey timing did not affect the rate of encounter for C. silvicultor. Forest ungulates in the LMNHFR utilize gallery forests regularly. Possible reasons for the higher rates of encounter for six of the species in gallery forests compared with non-gallery forests are access to water, readily available browse resulting from annual fire damage on the periphery and interior of gallery forests, and easy access to cover for ungulates when foraging in adjacent grassland. Given the current rate of forest loss in West Africa, studies examining how forest mammals are able to persist in small forest fragments should be high priority for both government and conservation groups. The findings here give evidence that forest ungulates can and do use small areas of forest. Most importantly, the findings from this study show the global value of the LMNHFR for the conservation of large mammals endemic to the Upper Guinea Forests.

Full text
Abstract:
Drawing on a rich array of textual and visual primary sources, including medicine, satires, play scripts, dictionaries, natural philosophy, and texts on collecting wonders, this book provides a fresh perspective on monstrosity in early modern European culture. The essays explore how exceptional bodies challenged social, religious, sexual and natural structures and hierarchies in the sixteenth, seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries and contributed to its knowledge, moral and emotional repertoire. Prodigious births, maternal imagination, hermaphrodites, collections of extraordinary things, powerful women, disabilities, controversial exercise, shapeshifting phenomena and hybrids are examined in a period before all varieties and differences became normalized to a homogenous standard. The historicizing of exceptional bodies is central in the volume since it expands our understanding of early modern culture and deepens our knowledge of its specific ways of conceptualizing singularities, rare examples, paradoxes, rules and conventions in nature and society.

Abstract:
AbstractGenomic prediction can be a powerful tool to achieve greater rates of genetic gain for quantitative traits if thoroughly integrated into a breeding strategy. In rice as in other crops, the interest in genomic prediction is very strong with a number of studies addressing multiple aspects of its use, ranging from the more conceptual to the more practical. In this chapter, we review the literature on rice (Oryza sativa) and summarize important considerations for the integration of genomic prediction in breeding programs. The irrigated breeding program at the International Rice Research Institute is used as a concrete example on which we provide data and R scripts to reproduce the analysis but also to highlight practical challenges regarding the use of predictions. The adage “To someone with a hammer, everything looks like a nail” describes a common psychological pitfall that sometimes plagues the integration and application of new technologies to a discipline. We have designed this chapter to help rice breeders avoid that pitfall and appreciate the benefits and limitations of applying genomic prediction, as it is not always the best approach nor the first step to increasing the rate of genetic gain in every context.

AbstractThis paper is going to carve out to what extent the use of morpho-syntactical as well as lexico-conceptual archaisms is frequent or salient in the Game of Thrones series dialogue transcripts and what kind of (pseudo-)archaisms the screenplay writers were working with in order to add a ‘pseudo-medieval feel’ to the discourse on screen. By making use of the corpus tool Sketch Engine, I shall demonstrate that archaisms and particularly pseudo-archaisms in Game of Thrones may not be particularly frequent token-wise, but are highly salient, despite their presence being subtle and impalpable. Their function as pseudo-medieval landmarks, however, will be shown to be cohesive throughout the scripted dialogues in the Game of Thrones series.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents a practical methodology of optimizing and building a detailed field surface network system by using the high-resolution reservoir simulator driven custom-made Python scripts to efficiently predict the future performance of the vast oil and gas-condensate carbonate field. All existing surface hydraulic tables are quality checked and lifting issue constraints corrected. Pressure losses at the wellhead chokes incorporated into the high-resolution reservoir simulator in the form of equation by using the custom scripts instead of a table format to calculate gas rate dependent pressure losses more precisely. Consequently, all 400+ surface production system manifolds, pipes and well chokes Horizontal Flow Performance (HFP) tables are updated and coupled to the reservoir simulator through Field Management (FM) controller which in turn generates Inflow Performance Relationship (IPR) tables for the coupled wells and passes them to solve the network. The methodology described in this paper applied for a complex field development planning of the Karachaganak. At present, reservoir management strategy requires constant balancing effort to uniformly spread gas re-injection into the lower Voidage Replacement Ratio areas in the Upper Gas-Condensate part of the reservoir due to reservoir heterogeneity. Additionally, an increase in field and wells gas-oil ratio and water-cut creates bottlenecks in the surface gathering system and requires robust solutions to decongest the surface network. Current simulation tools are not always effective due longer run times and simulation instability due to complex network system. As a solution, project-specific network balancing challenges are resolved by incorporating custom-made scripts into the high-resolution simulator. Faster and flexible integrated model based on hydraulic tables reproduced the historical pressure losses of the surface pipelines at similar resolution and generated accurate prediction profiles in a twice-quicker time than existing reservoir simulator. Overall, this approach helped to generate more stable production profiles by identifying bottlenecks in the surface network and evaluate future projects with more confidence by achieving a significant CAPEX cost savings. The comprehensive guidelines provided in this paper can aid reservoir modeling by setting up flexible integrated models to account for surface network effects. The value of incorporating Python scripts demonstrated to implement non-standard and project specific network balancing solutions leveraging on the flexibility and the openness of the modelling tool.

Abstract:
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is widely used to simulate machining processes. However, in general, it is time consuming, error-prone, and requires repeated efforts to establish a verified successful Finite Element (FE) model. To rapidly investigate the effects of parameters such as tool angle, feed rate, cutting speed, and temperatures generated during the machining process, an efficient approach is proposed in this paper. The technique has been used to achieve rapid FF simulation during turning and milling processes using Python language programming of Abaqus. Sub-model 1 is programmed to simulate the chip formation process in Abaqus/Explicit. Sub-model 2 is programmed to simulate the cooling spring-back process by importing the machined surface into Abaqus/Implicit. The proposed method is capable of simulating the chip morphology, stress, strain and temperature of the machining process with different parameters immediately. The established FE models are automatically solved in batch by programming script. Post-processing is programmed by Abaqus script to easily achieve and evaluate the simulation results. The Programmed FE models are validated in terms of the predicted chip morphology, cutting forces and residual stresses. This method is extraordinarily efficient saving more than 33% simulation time in comparison to existing FEA approach used for machining processes. Moreover, the script is concise, easy to debug, and effectively avoiding interactive mistakes. The rapid programming model provides a novel, efficiency and convenient approach to thoroughly investigate the effects of a large number of parameters on machining processes.

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the highest flowrate through a client's existing flowline without top-of-line condensation rates exceeding a critical value of 0.25 g/m2.s. Automation of the workflow allowed a large combination of operating conditions to be analysed within a shorter timeframe than a traditional flow assurance analysis process. A multiparameter case matrix was developed to analyse the full range of process and environmental variables. A proprietary multiphase flow assurance software in the cloud was used to develop a reference case model. Then a software script was developed to read in the reference case model's code and produce input files for 1,080 cases. All cases were run within 30 minutes in the cloud. Another software script then extracted key data from the 1,080 output files into a single Excel spreadsheet to enable data visualisation and identification of a simple and effective flow rate criterion to limit condensation rates. Automation of the workflow allowed all combinations of variables to be analysed within a shorter timeframe compared to the traditional flow assurance analysis process, which usually analyses a somewhat limited number of suspected worst-case scenarios selected based on engineering judgement. The bulk data resulting from the automated workflow enabled a single integrity limit criterion to be applied with a high level of confidence, namely the fluid temperature measured at a subsea corrosion probe. This simplified integrity limit allows the operators to easily maximise production for any combination of process and environmental conditions, whilst maintaining confidence that they are not exceeding the critical condensation rate.

Abstract:
In Spring 2021, an interdisciplinary team of researchers at Florida International University (FIU) designed a virtual reality (VR) training prototype for novices to learn how to work with industrial robots. Developed with the support of a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) by a team of architecture and computer science faculty, the Robotics Academy immersive learning environment prototype leverages advanced technologies to teach robotics in a fully immersive VR environment. This paper will describe the learning environment, the introductory lesson prototype, the learning evaluation tools, and the comparative outcomes of testing this learning prototype with a test group and a control group.As robotic automation continues to transform manufacturing, construction, and other industries, VR may offer a solution for training the labor force for more technically demanding jobs. VR provides computer-generated simulations of the real or an imagined environment that can serve as a rich and engaging space for learning (Mantovani et al., 2003). Recent research demonstrates that immersive environments can facilitate learning (and the assessment of learning) by providing a safe and low-cost setting for practice and rehearsal (Beck, 2019). Training workers to operate robots in a traditional classroom setting often relies on low teacher to student ratios as a means for accommodating individualized or small group coaching using a dedicated training robot. This pedagogical method can be both costly and time consuming. Meanwhile, on-the-job training can both slow down production and expose inexperienced trainers and trainees to potentially hazardous conditions. Immersive virtual learning environments offer a potential solution to reduce the cost of traditional training and mitigate exposure to hazardous conditions while learning how to operate industrial robots.The design team for the Robotics Academy created an immersive learning environment with simulated robots and input devices while the curriculum team developed both a script introducing the fundamentals of industrial robotic safety and a series of self-directed activities for learning how to operate an industrial robot. To measure the effectiveness of our VR learning tool the evaluation team offered 45 minutes of self-directed learning using a VR headset to a test group of twenty-one second year architecture students with no prior knowledge or experience working with industrial robots. A control group of twenty-one second year architecture students with similar background received training using the same script paired with an image-based slide lecture in a traditional classroom setting, but they were not provided access to the VR training tool or practice time to work with a robot. Both groups were tested with a short quiz to assess their retention of key concepts from the script and a practicum test using a teach pendant input device for controlling an industrial robot. Finally, students were asked to rate their own level of confidence, self-reliance, and readiness to proceed to the next level of training. On the written test students showed similar rates of retention of key concepts from the training script with a modestly higher average score for in-person training over the VR training tool. However, in a series of timed exercises, students who used the VR training tool demonstrated higher levels of task accomplishment with fewer errors and faster completion times for practicum testing. Finally, those who used the VR training tool reported higher levels of self-confidence. While more learning outcome testing is necessary, these initial results indicate that immersive learning environments like our VR tool may be an effective method for educating the labor force for jobs that involve automation with technology such as industrial robots.

Abstract:
This paper defines an analytical model, based on results of simulations, for the description of the actual behaviour of a particular load sensing valve. The component considered for the analysis is typically applied in steering systems, with a load sensing control strategy, in presence of other actuators. Controlling the primary port flow rate is the valve's scope, the exceeding flow being discharged to the secondary port. A simple analytical model of the valve is commonly used in the industrial field and is useful for the understanding of its operation in a generic hydraulic system. However, experiments show that the actual behaviour is strongly influenced by the flow rate through the valve, and depends also on many geometrical parameters (i.e. shape of spool grooves, spool edges distance, etc.). The simple empirical model presented in this paper is defined considering only parameters primarily affecting the valve operation. As it often happens in searching for new models, the discovery of the most influencing factors presents several difficulties, because of their large number and, mainly, because it is difficult to consider all possible mutual interactions. Therefore, in this analysis, a stochastic-based method has been chosen, according to a technique known as "Design of Experiments" (DOE). In the first part of the paper, the author presents a screening analysis of the valve, under all the possible operating conditions. This procedure allows the identification of the most influencing parameters, for the development of the enhanced model of the valve. The configurations examined were chosen defining an optimal experimental plan, that allows an high significance of results with a restricted number of tests, through fractional factorial strategies. Further, this analysis gives a lot of useful information for the improvement of the valve design. In the remaining section of this paper, the author presents a correlative model of actual valve behaviour. This is generalized to a wide range of possible spool geometries, and is characterized by a simple formulation, accounting for only a few parameters, highlighted by the screening analysis. All results processed by DOE algorithms, implemented with MATLAB® scripts, are evaluated through simulations, instead of experiments. For this purpose, a previously developed AMESim® model of the valve (validated on the basis of laboratory tests) has been utilized.

Abstract:
Providing effective and quality feedback to students in higher education has been identified as an integral part of quality teaching by many researchers in the field of education. However, student perceptions vary drastically as to what they perceive academic feedback to really be. Therefore, this paper aims to present freshman engineering student perceptions of academic feedback from an African perspective. The reason for targeting this group is due to their high dropout rate in higher education in South Africa (around 60%). Quantitative data was collected from freshman engineering students enrolled for a module termed Digital Systems 1 at the Central University of Technology in South Africa. A questionnaire was used as the main data collection instrument featuring 21 close ended questions. The results presented in this paper indicate that almost two-thirds (65%) of the respondents believe that a “grade” written on a test script does not constitute academic feedback. The majority of the respondents (76%) expect some kind of academic feedback regarding their work, either in writing or orally from their lecturer. A good majority (86%) of students perceived that getting written comments on their assessments would encourage them to approach the lecturer to seek further clarification. A key recommendation of this study is to find a mechanism or technique of providing constructive feedback to all enrolled students, even in large classes. This needs to be done from the outset of the module in order to reduce the current high dropout rates among freshman engineering students.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper demonstrates the modelling of a novel power cycle for coal-fired indirect supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2). and thermal energy storage (TES). TES integrated with coal fired power plant can improve the efficiency, making the power generator responsive to ramp rate. The parallel models were developed in IDAES, an open-source code developed by the Department of Energy (DOE), and Aspen Plus V.10 by Aspen Technology, Inc., which is used in many industries to model and optimize a variety of chemical processes. The benefit of using Aspen Plus for coal combustion is its ability to model solids and multiphase fluids that will be present in the various coal and sCO2 power cycles. The property database and equations of state (EOS) available in the Aspen and IDAES software provide accurate results for the process conditions present in the cycles involved in this project. A baseline model was selected from DOE studies and compared against results from the system modelling. Current results from the model are close to those found using Aspen and those in the baseline model. The system model was also connected to a dual-media thermocline thermal energy storage system (DMTES) that uses a Python script to determine temperatures of molten salt provided by the DMTES. The code uses variables of heat flow, mass flow, and temperature to determine the performance of the sCO2 power block IDAES model. From this, the power block output is determined for steady state and quasi steady state conditions. The DMTES system is modeled for dynamic situations and is shown to have near-constant temperature during charge or discharge, depending on the position of the DMTES system thermal transition zone. The results show how temperature is maintained across a large range of state-of-charge.

Abstract:
Abstract Many oil and gas operators have challenges in deepwater turbidite gas asset's reservoir management plan (RMP) readiness due to lack of experience and very limited analog field data. The objective of this article is to demonstrate how data analytics workflow, comprising of data mining and machine learning-based global deepwater turbidite gas field benchmarking and lessons learned, to identify field performance and mitigate subsurface challenges in developing and managing deepwater turbidite gas assets. To mine turbidite field data from around the world, a customized R script was constructed using optical character recognition, regular expression (regex), rule-based logic to extract subsurface and surface data attributes from unstructured data sources. All extracted contents were transformed into a properly structured query language (SQL) database relational format for the cleansing process. Having established the turbidite assets repository, exploratory data analysis (EDA) was then employed to discover insight datasets. To analyze the field performance, the number of wells needed to deplete the field was identified using support vector regression, subsequently, K-means clustering was used to classify the reservoirs productivity. The results of field benchmarking analysis from EDA are deployed in a fit-for-purpose dashboard application, which provides an elegant and powerful framework for data management and analytics purposes. The analytic dashboard which was developed to visualize EDA findings will be presented in this article. The productivity of deepwater turbidite gas reservoirs has been classified based on the maximum gas flow rate and estimated ultimate recovery per well. This result help in identifying the high-rate, high-ultimate-recovery (HRHU) reservoirs of a deepwater turbidite gas field. The regex pattern for subsurface challenges specifically as related to reservoir uncertainties and associated risks, including operational challenges in developing and managing deepwater turbidite gas fields were identified through word cloud recognition. Key subsurface challenges were then categorized and statistically ranked, finally, a decomposition tree was used to identify the issues, impacts, and mitigation plan for dealing with identified risks based on best practices from a global project point of view. Deployment of this novel workflow provides insight for better decision-making and can be a prudent complementary tool for de-risking subsurface uncertainties in developing and managing deepwater turbidite gas assets. The findings from this study can be used to develop the framework that captures current best-practices in the formulation and execution of a RMP including monitoring and benchmark of asset performance in deepwater turbidite gas fields.

Abstract:
Injection of high-momentum air into the tip-gap region of rotor stages is a measure of active aerodynamic stabilization of turbo compression systems. The Institute of Jet Propulsion at the University of the German Federal Armed Forces Munich advanced the concept of conventional tip air injection by deliberately deploying the ejector effect in order to increase the mass flow rate of the air injected. A novel Ejector Injection System (EIS) has been developed for the Larzac 04 jet engine and its intended ejector performance was proven in experimental pre-investigations. In addition to that, the corresponding CFD setup has been validated and an approach for highly efficient CFD simulations of the EIS ejector aerodynamics (node number reduction > 90%) was developed, verified, and validated. Thus, optimization of the ejector geometry in order to enhance the ejector aerodynamics and subsequently the stabilization performance of the EIS comes into focus now. Within this paper, a parametric CFD study is conducted to determine the influence of three main geometry parameters of the EIS ejector design on the ejector’s performance. The parameters, namely the injection nozzle spacing, the mixing duct length, and the ejector nozzle height, are introduced in the context of the overall EIS design and functionality. For efficiency purposes, a script-based procedure which deploys ANSYS ICEM CFD and ANSYS CFX has been developed in order to conduct the CFD parameter study covering 205 simulations fully automated. Each ejector geometry is thereby simulated with five different primary air mass flow rates supplied to the EIS covering a range from low-speed to transonic operation. It is revealed that all three geometry parameters investigated show partially significant impact on the ejector performance in terms of the entrainment ratio μ. In order to get a detailed insight into the inner EIS aerodynamics, also primary air Mach and Reynolds numbers, the state of mixing between primary and secondary air, and velocity profiles in the LPC’s tip region are subjects of investigation. Based on these findings and the general aerodynamic coherences discovered, recommendations for optimizing the current EIS ejector design are presented.
