Full textDetta är en reflekterande uppsats som behandlar ett verk som skapats inom ramen för examensarbete i medier: dataspelsutveckling vid Högskolan i Skövde. Själva verket består av en spelbar nivå till spelet SWAT4 (Sierra, 2007) med stöd för upp till 16 spelare i spelläget ”Barricaded Suspects”. Uppsatsen inleds med att presentera idén, frågeställningen och målet med verket. Detta följs av en kort del om spelet SWAT4: s ramverk innan den nivådesignsmässiga teorin som använts vid verkets skapande förklaras. Efter detta följer en utförlig beskrivning om arbetsprocessen som använts vid skapandet av verket. Därefter beskrivs de områden som nivån består av utifrån deras utformning. Detta följs av en diskussion där reflektioner, tankar och problem som uppstått under arbetet tas upp, innan resultatet redovisas. Slutsatsen som dras är att nivån som producerats är balanserad och har samma visuella representation som originalnivåerna till SWAT4, trots att det fortfarande finns förbättringar att göra i avseende på ljud och detaljrikedom.

The motion responses of unconventional Small Water-plane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) vessels are unique in the sense that viscosity has significant non-linear effects on their hydrodynamic parameters. The parametric optimization of the hull shape of these vessels to reduce the total resistance in waves yields an interesting hull form where viscous effects become significant and this kind of problem is generally more difficult to solve. This study aims to investigate the motion response of these special kind of ships in waves using both numerical and experimental approach with some theoretical simplifications to better understand the hydrodynamics of the ship. The two modes of motion of interest in this study are heave and pitch motions which were chosen in order to focus on the degrees of freedom which significantly contributes to the resistance of the ship in head waves. The vessel under investigation is an unmanned surface vessel (USV) proposed to be used to monitor a team of autonomous underwater vehicles. A scaled version of this model is built and some experiments were conducted at the MIT towing tank at zero speed. Additionally, the numerical methods are implemented using 2D and 3D potential flow solvers. As this is an ongoing project, the results obtained so far including the study of the effects of the inertial characteristics of the ship on the response amplitude operator (RAO) are presented.

High-speed semi-displacement vessels have enjoyed rapid development and widespread use over the past 25 years. Concurrent with their growth as viable commercial and naval platforms, has been the advancement of three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics codes that simulate steady and unsteady free surface potential flows around ships. The most promising of these computer-based simulations employ a variation of the Rankine Panel Method, or R.P.M. R.P.M.'s offer greater prediction accuracy than industry standard two-dimensional strip and slender-body methods, and are enjoying increased use in practical vessel design due to their reliability and low relative cost. This study uses one such code to examine the high-speed hydrodynamic performance of a slender, semi-SWATH, prototype catamaran with variable demi-hull separation. Hull separation's influence on vessel performance was studied in terms of calm water resistance and seakeeping response in a bare-hull state, and when equipped with quasi-active lifting appendage control. Analysis was performed on a 10.5m, 10,000kg reduced waterplane area catamaran designed by Lockheed Martin Maritime Systems & Sensors.
(cont.) In accordance with a non-disclosure agreement, specific hull geometry has been deemed proprietary and is not revealed. Principle vessel dimensions, body, and free surface meshing however, are discussed. The hydrodynamic characteristics of each hull separation and lifting appendage configuration were analyzed by the general purpose, potential flow, time domain, Rankine Panel Method, software package, SWAN2 2002. An acronym for Ship Wave ANalysis, SWAN2 2002 is a state-of-the-art computational fluid dynamics code developed in MIT in recent years, and is utilized principally as a numerical towing tank.

The hybrid hydrofoil/SWATH, designed and patented by Stefano Brizzolara, is a novel vehicle design that is optimized to operate in both a high speed foilborne mode and a displacement mode. The retractable hydrofoils on the vehicle take on a unique four surface piercing anhedral foil configuration. This foilborne design is previously unassessed for stability and maneuvering characteristics. A six degree of freedom model of the foilborne vehicle dynamics is introduced as a framework to study vehicle stability and maneuvering. Linearized models of the vehicle dynamics are compared to the six degree of freedom results in both the vertical and horizontal planes. Foil configuration design criteria are derived for pitch equilibrium as well as pitch and directional stability. A method for turning the vehicle by rotationally actuating the foil dihedral angles is introduced, and the vehicle state in the unsteady and steady portion of the turn is simulated.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Adolescents belonging to lower socio economic groups, seem to be at risk for teenage pregnancies as well as the contraction of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV/AIDS. It is therefore important to study the sexual behaviour of these adolescents. This study focussed on the sexual behaviour of coloured and black female adolescents from working class communities. The respondents consisted of all the coloured and black female adolescents in a traditional coloured and a traditional black school in a semi-rural area. A self-administrative questionnaire was used. The questionnaire focussed on biographical details, the language adolescents use when they talk about sex as well as their sexual and contraceptive behaviour. The goals of the study were to describe the sexual behaviour of the black adolescents and to compare the sexual behaviour of the coloured and the black respondents. A quantitative methodology was used to examine the black respondents' range of sexual behaviour, communication about sex, sexual force and molestation as well as high risk sexual behaviour. According to the results a high percentage of black adolescents used Western and medical terms when they talk about sex. The sexually active black adolescents had coitus at an early age which could have implications for the incidence of teenage pregnancies and HIV/AIDS. A large percentage of the black adolescents indicated that they did not masturbate. Most of the black adolescents also indicated that they did not talk about sex with other people. A small percentage of the black adolescents reported that they were sexually molested or raped. A comparison with the coloured adolescents indicated that: more of the black adolescents reported that they had had coitus; more black adolescents reported pregnancies, more black respondents reported that they masturbated and fewer black adolescents reported that they smoked and used alcohol.

Dit is dus belangrik dat hierdie adalessente se seksuele gedrag nagevars ward. Hierdie studie het gefakus ap die seksuele gedrag van bruin en swart vroulike adolessente afkamstig uit werkersklas gemeenskappe. Die respandente het bestaan uit alle vroulike adolessente by 'n tradisianele bruin skaal en 'n tradisionele swart skaal in 'n semilandelike area. 'n Self-geadministreerde vraelys wat gefakus het ap biagrafiese gegewens, die taal wat adolessente gebruik wanneer hulle van seks praat asook seksuele en kantraseptiewe gedrag is in die studie gebruik. Die dael van die studie is eerstens om 'n beskrywing te bied van die swart adolessente se seksuele gedrag en tweedens om die seksuele gedrag van die bruin en swart adolessente met mekaar te vergelyk. "n Kwantitatiewe metadalagie is gebruik om die spektrum van seksuele gedrag, kommunikasie aar seks, seksuele dwang en malestering asook haë risiko seksuele gedrag van die swart respandente te ondersoek, Die resultate het daarop gedui dat "n graot persentasie van die swart adolessente gebruik maak van Westerse en mediese terme wanneer hulle van seks praat. Die aanvang van koïtus vir die seksueel aktiewe swart adolessente was ap "n vroeë ouderdom , wat implikasies kan hê vir die voorkoms van tienerswangerskappe en MIV/VIGS. 'n Graat persentasie van die swart adolessente het gerapparteer dat hulle nie masturbeer nie. Dit het verder geblyk dat hierdie graep swart adolessente selde verbaal aar seks kammunikeer met ander persone. "n Klein persentasie van die swart adolessente het qerapporteer dat hulle seksueel gemalesteer af verkrag is. "n Vergelyking met die bruin adolessente het aangedui dat meer swart adolessente kaitus gehad het, meer swart adalessente swangerskappe gerapparteer het, meer swart adalessente aangedui het dat hulle gemasturbeer het en dat minder swart adolessente raak en alkahalgebruik gerapparteer het.

Full textThis thesis, co-directed by Jean-Marc Boucher and Ronan Fablet (IMT Atlantique) and co-supervised by Didier Charlot (iXBlue), Gilles Le Chenadec and Michel Legris (ENSTA Bretagne), was realized in the context of a convention CIFRE with the company iXBlue.iXblue develops and commercializes a multibeam echosounder (MBES) SEAPIX primarily dedicated to the fishery market. The system is optimized to offer the best compromise between performances capabilities and cost. In addition to the classical characteristics of an MBES, it offers the unique feature of scanning the seafloor (and the water column volume) by electronical beamform multiple the emission swaths from port to starboard, as well as from forward to backward. The objective of the thesis is to study the contribution of these new multi-swath capacities in the analysis and classification of the seafloor.The first part of the work consisted in carrying out a detailed analysis of the measurement chain. This study evaluated the consistency in acquiring the backscattering strength from different insonification modes. The second part investigated the discriminant characteristics of the backscattered signal while taking into account the acquisition geometry of each insonification mode. The last stage of the work involved to methods of fusing the acquired data. This study was carried out in two approaches; the first considers data from the same insonification mode (intra-mode) and the second from different modes (inter-mode), for the seafloor classification. The obtained experimental results highlight the interest of the proposed processing chain and a multi-mode architecture on the real datasets

Full textThe role of indigenous healers in managing various conditions of ill-health has been studied and debated. Studies have revealed that the majority of the population in South Africa use traditional health care to treat various mental conditions. Studies have also revealed that traditional medicine plays an important role in primary health care in many countries. The aim of the study was to explore Swati traditional healers’ conceptualization of the causes and treatment methods of mental illness in Kanyamazane Township in Mpumalanga Province, South Africa. A phenomenological research method was used in the present study. Ten (10) traditional healers, six (6) female and four (4) male, who were selected through purposive sampling method participated in the study. Semi structured personal interviews were conducted with the traditional healers. The interviews were conducted in siSwati and later translated to English. The main themes that emerged were grouped under the following 3 main topics: conceptualisation and types of mental illness; causes of mental illness; and, treatment of mental illness. The traditional healers identified and described a number of mental illnesses that could be identified by their behavioural symptoms and thought disruptions. These include: depressive conditions, addictions, psychotic illnesses, adjustment disorders and genetic mental illnesses. Mental illness was perceived to be caused by a number of factors that, among others, include the following: supernatural powers such as witchcraft, spirit possession, intrusion of objects, evil mechanisation, improper use of traditional medicine, disregarding ancestors and cultural customs as well invitation by ancestors to become a traditional healer, substance abuse, genetic predisposition, life stressors, social conditions, and injuries to the head, Cleansing the patient of evil spirits through washing, steaming, induced vomiting, casting out evil and herbal medication were some of the methods that were found to be commonly used to treat mental illness. The study found that the theory underlying traditional healing is essentially similar, and that traditional healers utilise a culturally coherent and holistic approach in dealing with health and illness.

Full textThe aim of this thesis was to evaluate the impacts of changes in land use and climate variability on water resources (discharge and sediment fluxes), into mesoscale (Piracicaba River basin) and small-scale (watershed Ribeirão das Posses) processes throughout a study of numerical modeling with SWAT model (Soil and Water Assessment Tool). Data of numerical model of terrain, soil maps and land use, temperature, precipitation, wind speed, solar radiation and relative humidity forced the SWAT model. The model showed a satisfactory performance in comparison with the observed data, as showed by the statistical indices of the Piracicaba River Basin (COE between 0.97 and 0.99 to 0.90 for flow and sediment fluxes) and Ribeirão das Posses (COE of 0.53 to 0.7 for flow and sediment fluxes). In simulations of changes in land use the results indicate that in both basins larger flows occur in the case of deforestation scenarios, being the scene of the pasture the highest values. The model corresponded to the evidence that peak flows, for example the events of flooding can be mitigated with reforestation and the scenario of anthropogenic with grasses for grazing land and sugar cane, extreme events tend to be further enhanced too. In assessing the simulation of sediment flows, the scenario of reforestation with eucalyptus shows reduction in soil loss, but still below the scenario reforestation with native vegetation, which presented the lowest values of sediment flux in both basins. In the simulation taking into account climate change, the results show increased flow to the future (2078-2098) and consequent increase in stream sediment, with an average 12% increase in the flows of Piracicaba and 19 % in the flow sediment. In Ribeirão das Posses this response pattern also occurred with a 46% increase in throughput and 40 % in the stream sediments.

Find full textEste estudo foi realizado em uma floresta explorada seletivamente, no Campo Experimental da EMBRAPA Amazônia Oriental, Moju – PA. O objetivo do trabalho foi estudar o comportamento da regeneração natural e das mudas transplantadas de Tetragastris altíssima (Aubl.) Swart, conhecida popularmente como breu almescla, através da taxa de sobrevivência e incremento médio anual. Foram selecionadas nove clareiras, as quais foram agrupadas em classes de tamanho, onde foram implantadas uma parcela de 2 m x 2 m e outra de 5 m x 5 m no centro e quatro outras parcelas para cada posição: borda, 20 m e 40 m da clareira para dentro da floresta, nas direções: Norte, Sul, Leste e Oeste. As mudas foram avaliadas através da sobrevivência e crescimento de T. altissima (Aubl.) Swart, durante nove anos de observação. Para a sobrevivência no centro das clareiras, o plantio apresentou os melhores resultados (33,89%) em comparação à regeneração natural (11,11%). Para as distâncias e direções, a sobrevivência da regeneração natural foi melhor ao Sul a 40 m distantes do centro das clareiras, em relação à bordadura, com 11,11% e ao Oeste a 20 m apresentou 7,41%. Para o plantio a espécie apresentou 16,67% de sobrevivência a Leste na Borda e a 40 m ao Sul, os melhores resultados para essa análise. O crescimento da espécie em relação ao centro foi mais significativo no plantio (7,3 cm/ano) do que na regeneração natural (0,28 cm/ano). Nas distâncias e direções o crescimento foi maior ao Leste a 40 m e ao Oeste na Borda, 0,28 cm/ano, na regeneração natural, e o maior para as mudas transplantadas foi na Borda ao Leste, onde o crescimento foi de 3,14 cm/ano. A espécie se estabeleceu melhor em ambiente de mudas transplantadas do que na regeneração natural, tanto para a sobrevivência, quanto para o crescimento, tendenciando que o primeiro seria um método silvicultural viável para enriquecimento de florestas. É coerente plantar a espécie em ambientes de radiação direta, devido aos melhores resultados no centro das clareiras para as duas análises. A sobrevivência e o crescimento da espécie em relação aos gradientes Norte-Sul, Leste-Oeste, foi indiferente para essa análise, tanto para a regeneração natural, quanto para o plantio, demonstrando o caráter de espécie com características do grupo ecológico das tolerantes a sombra.

Find full textSoil and water assessment tool model (SWAT model) is a widely used model when dealing with large and complex watershed simulations. To correctly predict runoff of a watershed, auto-calibration methods are applied. Among all the platforms, SWAT CUP is widely used in the SWAT model community. The new web-based calibration platform: SWATShare is also gaining its popularity due to the benefits of user-friendly interface, access to high-performance computing resources, and collaborative interface. While the algorithm implemented in SWAT CUP is Sequential Uncertainty Fitting version 2 (SUFI2), Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is the algorithm employed by SWATShare. There is a limited amount of research comparing the model performance between these two calibration algorithms and platforms.
This study aims to examine whether the performances of calibrated models are providing equally reliable results. Thirty US watersheds are studied in this research, SWAT models were calibrated using seven years of rainfall data and outflow observations from 2001 to 2007, and then the models were validated using three years of historical records from 2008 to 2010. Inconsistency exists between different algorithms calibrated parameter sets, and the percentage difference between parameter values ranges from 8.7% to 331.5%. However, in two-thirds of the study basins, there is no significant difference between objective function values in two algorithms calibrated models. Correlations are examined using values of parameters and watershed features. Among all the features and parameters, Length of reach and GW_DELAY, CH_N2 and ALPHA_BF, climate zone and GWQMN, SFTMP and NSE have medium correlation exist in both SWATShare and SWAT CUP calibrated models among 30 watersheds. The correlation coefficient difference between them are less than 0.1. When visualizing results by Ecoregions, KGE and NSE are similar in calibrated models from both tools.
The initial parameter range used for SWAT CUP calibration could lead to satisfactory results with greater than 0.5 objective function values. However, the parameter values of the calibrated model might not be presenting a real physical condition since they are out of the realistic range. The inaccurate parameter values might lead to lower objective function values in the validation. The objective function values can be improved by setting the range of parameter values to match the realistic values.
By comparing two tools, SWATShare accurately calibrates parameter values to a realistic range using default range in most cases. For those models with an unsatisfactory result from SWATShare, the objective function values could be improved after specifying the parameters to the best-fit range given by SWAT CUP results. Also, for those watersheds which have similar satisfactory calibrated objective values from both tools, constraining the parameter to a reasonable range could generate a new calibrated model that performs as well as the original one. Using the approach to constrain parameter values to a realistic range gradually can exclude some statistically satisfactory but physically meaningless models. Comparing two auto-calibration software, SWATShare accurately calibrates parameter values to a realistic range using default range in most cases. Also, in some of the ecoregions, the best parameter sets in SWATShare fall in a more physically meaningful range. Overall, the newly emerged platform, SWATShare, is found to have the capability of conducting good SWAT model calibration.

Full textMotivated teachers are essential for effe~~ive teaching to take place. As a result of trauma experienced by the black teacher, especially after 1976, when their authority was. undermined and the slogan "Liberation before education" was the theme of the day, teachers were unmotivated to teach. Furthermore the existing forms used to "inspect" the teachers were unacceptable for the ANC government and teachers. The researcher, out of his experience as subject advisor, identified and addressed the shortcomings in the existing evaluation practices by developing a motivation strategy where a motivation form is used. In this way a learning culture could again be established in the schools. As a grounding for above mentioned strategy a literature study was done on motivation, the motivation theories as well as ways in which adults are motivated. Goal setting, what it entials, existing theories as well as the errors made when setting goals, were also researched by means of literature studies. A motivation form is developed in this research, in which the purpose, development and structuring of the form is discussed. Finally research is undertaken to determine the didactic principles relevant to this study were researched to determine what the purpose and value of each principle were, and how these could simultaneously contribute towards the mastering of the work by the pupils.

Full textSouth Africa is a country richly blessed with natural and human resources. Optimal utilization of human resources is of great importance for economic development, but a number 9f factors with specific reference to the South African situation restrain this development, i.e; A shortage-of skilled labour 2. A small white population that has to satisfy the demand for skilled labour, and 3. A shortage of supervisory and middle management. By means of training, the shortage of skilled labour can be reduced and by placing Blacks in supervisory positions the demand on the white population can be eased. One of the first levels of management is that of the first line supervisor. The position of the Black first line supervisor is receiving more and more attention from industrialists who realise the importance of these supervisors for the healthy functioning of an organisation. Black supervisors can be effective, but they have to be selected and trained correctly. The focus of this study is placed on the selection of Black first line supervisors. Two selection instruments, The Work Preference Questionnaire (WPQ) and the Picture Situation Test (PST) were specifically developed for this purpose, but the metric qualities of the tests were not known until now. The aim of this study is to determine the validity of these two selection instruments. The model for concurrent validity is used.
