Texte intégralRésumé :
Les chocs thermiques provoquent, en général, l’endommagement et la fissuration des matériaux. Ces phénomènes sont observés, par exemple, dans le revêtement de barrière thermique pour les moteurs des turbines, le traitement des surfaces ou la soudure par laser etc. Plusieurs travaux de recherche ont été réalisés au cours des dernières décennies dans l’objectif d’améliorer les performances thermiques et/ou mécaniques des matériaux sous chargement thermique. L’étude des dommages et de la fissuration des matériaux provoqués par les chocs thermiques, tels que le décollement des interfaces et de décohésion de revêtements, a reçu également une attention considérable par les chercheurs. La majorité de ces travaux utilisent les théories classiques, tels que la loi de Fourier de conduction thermique et l'hypothèse de quasi-statique. Malheureusement ces théories ne sont pas adaptées dans le cas de charges extrêmes provoqués par le choc thermique et dans le cas des matériaux micro-fissurés. En conséquence, les théories conventionnelles doivent être enrichies.L'objectif de la thèse est de montrer le rôle crucial des termes non Fourier et les termes inertiels dans le cas de choc thermique sous conditions sévères et dans le cas où les fissures sont petites. Pour cela nous avons mené des études sur deux structures particulières soumises à des chocs thermiques. Chaque structure contient une fissure parallèle au bord libre de la structure située au voisinage de ce dernier. L’influence de la présence de fissure sur la conductivité thermique est prise en compte. Nous avons utilisé la théorie Hyperbolique de transfert de chaleur par conduction pour les champs thermique et mécanique à la place de la théorie traditionnelle classique de Fourier. Pour mener cette étude, nous avons utilisé les Transformées de Laplace et de Fourier aux équations de mouvement et à l’équation de transfert de chaleur. En s’intéressant en particulier aux champs de contrainte au voisinage de la pointe de fissure et aux facteurs d'intensité de contrainte dynamiques. Le problème se ramène à la résolution d’un système d'équations intégrales singulières dans l'espace de Laplace-Fourier. On utilise une méthode d'intégration numérique pour obtenir les différents champs. Nous résolvons ensuite un système d'équations algébriques linéaires. En effectuant des inversions numériques des transformées, nous obtenons les champs de contrainte de température et les facteurs d'intensité de contrainte dynamiques dans le domaine temporel.Les résultats numériques montrent que la conductivité thermique du milieu est affectée par l’ouverture de la fissure ce qui perturberait fortement le champ de température ainsi que l'amplitude des facteurs d'intensité de contrainte dynamiques. Les amplitudes sont supérieures à celles obtenues à partir de la théorie classique de Fourier ainsi que dans le cadre de l'hypothèse quasi-statique. On constate également qu’elles oscillent au cours du temps. La prise en compte simultanément de l’influence de la fissure sur la conductivité thermique, de l'effet non-Fourier ainsi que les effetsIVd'inertie induit un couplage entre les trois phénomènes qui rendrait le problème de choc thermique très complexe. L'effet de barrière thermique induit par la fissure affecte d’une manière significative les champs de température et des contraintes. Les effets d’inertie, et des termes non-Fourier joueraient également un rôle non négligeable lorsque la longueur de la fissure est petite. Comme dans de nombreux problèmes d'ingénierie, l'initiation et la propagation des micro-fissures sont des mécanismes dont il faut tenir compte dans les prévisions de la rupture des structures. Ces effets non conventionnels ne sont plus négligeables et doivent être inclus dans l'analyse de la fracture des structures soumises à des chocs thermiquesThermal shock problems occur in many engineering materials and elements, which are used in high temperature applications such as thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), solid propellant of rocket-engine, pulsed-laser processing of materials, and so on. The thermal shock resistance performances and the thermal shock damages of materials, especially the interface debonding and spallation of coatings, have received considerable attention in both analysis and design. Some conventional theories, such as the Fourier’s law of thermal conduction and the quasi-static assumption of the thermoelastic body, may no longer be appropriate because of the extreme loads provoked by the thermal shock. Therefore, these conventional theories need to be enriched or revised.The objective of this thesis is to develop the solutions of the transient temperature field and thermal stresses around a partially insulated crack in a thermoelastic strip under thermal shock loading. The crack lies parallel to the heated traction free surface. The thermal conductivity of the crack gap is taken into account. Hyperbolic heat conduction theory is used in solving the temperature field instead of the traditional Fourier thermal conduction theory. Equations of motion are applied to obtain the stress fields and the dynamic stress intensity factors of the crack. The Laplace and Fourier transforms are applied to solve the thermal-elastic governing equations such that the mixed boundary value problems are reduced to solving a singular integral equations system in Laplace-Fourier space. The numerical integration method is applied to get the temperature field and stress fields, respectively. The problems are then solved numerically by converting the singular integral equations to a linear algebraic equations system. Finally, numerical inversions of the Laplace transform are performed to obtain the temperature field and dynamic stress intensity factors in the time domain.Numerical results show that the thermal conductivity of the crack gap strongly affects the uniformity of the temperature field and consequently, the magnitude of the dynamic stress intensity factors of the crack. The stress intensity factors would have higher amplitude and oscillating feature comparing to those obtained under the conventional Fourier thermal conduction and quasi-static hypotheses. It is also observed that the interactions of the thermal conductivity of the crack gap, the non-Fourier effect and the inertia effects would make the dynamic thermal shock problem more complex. The magnitude of the thermal barrier, non-Fourier and inertia effects is estimated for some practical cases

Texte intégralRésumé :
This study aims to investigate the effects of the &ldquoPLEASE&rdquo
(a general paragraph writing strategy ) writing strategy instruction through the Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) model on descriptive writing of fifth grade English language learners studying in a private primary school in Istanbul. The current study specifically focuses on if instruction on pre-writing planning through the SRSD model results in improvements in students&rsquo
written products, planning behaviors and self-beliefs as writers. For the study, eight fifth grade students participated in a writing club activity offered by the researcher at school. They were taught strategies for planning and drafting descriptive paragraphs, and the procedures for regulating the use of these strategies and the writing process itself. The data collection tools included comparison of students&rsquo
final pieces of writing in terms of overall quality and length, retrospective verbal protocols, individual interviews, and questionnaires all of which were conducted both at the pre-intervention and the post-intervention phases. As a result, the pre-test and the post-test writing scores indicated that each student experienced improvement in terms of overall quality and length of the written products. The strategy training helped students become more aware of the need for pre-writing planning and they started to engage in planning prior to writing in real practice. After the treatment, the students also experienced increased self-confidence.

My work explores the gray area and the shifting border between "us" and "other." It investigates the helplessness and the submissiveness on both sides of this spectrum and one's passivity that makes the "pain of others" inevitable. Moreover, it examines the individual and collective experiences of guilt and complicity in relation to world events. I am interested in the selective and repressed memories of individuals and nations, the reluctance to look and the ability to forget.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The main goal of this project was to write a review about different quantum Hall effects. This review focuses on the integer and relativistic quantum Hall effect in graphene. The quantum Hall effect is a newly discovered phenomena that was experimentally observed in 1980 and relativistic quantum Hall effect in graphene was observed in 2005. This project takes a theoretical approach to describe the quantum Hall effects and graphene itself. Experiments has shown that for very strong magnetic fields applied to 2D systems, the Hall resistance becomes quantized, RH=h/ne2 and only depends on the charge of the electron and Planck's constant, two fundamental constants of nature. This sets a new standard on how to define resistance, and gives a good tool for precise measurements of the fine structure constant.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This work is a contribution to the theory of the quantum tunneling effect. In the literature at least two barriers are studied, for which the third-order contribution to the phase - integral asymptotic approximation of the transmission coefficient do not contribute. These are the parabolic barrier and the inverse Morse barrier. In the present work we will show that with a proper choice of the so called base function there is at least one more barrier in this category namely the Eckart-Epstein potential. The fact that the third - order contribution vanishes is a good indication that we have found an optimal choice of the base function, and the treatment to find an optimal base function may be possible to generalize to other classes of potential barriers. For particles of a low energy compared to the energy near the top of the barrier we obtain a vary low transmission coefficient, which means that the probability for tunneling to occur is very low. There exist some cases, for example that with a double barrier which is transparent, even for certain relatively low energies but no evidence for this kind of transparency for a single barrier has been found. The present work does not give any such evidence. At the same time there are still speculations on cold fusion like effects, which would demand a higher probability for tunneling through for a single barrier.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In 1948, Hendrick Brugt Gerhard Casimir predicted that two closely spaced uncharged conducting plates in vacuum would be mutually attracted. This attractive force is an indirect manifestation of the quantum electromagnetic zero point field (ZPF). When the indirect manifestations of the ZPF are interpreted as due to radiation pressure, acoustic noise can provide an excellent analog to investigate the Casimir effect as well as other effects due to the ZPF. Force measurements between two parallel plates are performed in an acoustic chamber with a broadband noise spectrum within a 5-15 kHz band and an intensity of 133 dB (re 20 %Pa). When the results are compared with the appropriate theory, very good agreement is obtained. Applications of the acoustic Casimir effect to noise transduction can provide new means to measure background noise. Because attractive or repulsive forces can be obtained by adjusting the noise spectrum or the plate geometry, a non-resonant method of acoustic levitation is also suggested

Holmboe, R. D. « The Ubu effect ». Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2016. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1485833/.
Texte intégralRésumé :
This thesis considers the works of contemporary visual artists through the lens of Alfred Jarry’s Ubu Roi (1896). I begin by arguing that the play marked a founding moment in the history of abstraction, one that cuts against the grain of convention and common sense. I relate this mode of abstraction to what Jarry calls phynance and argue that this category emerges in Ubu Roi as a material process that can be understood in psychic, physiological and economic terms. It is with this possibility in mind that the following chapters seek to challenge previous understandings of abstraction in the visual arts. In order to do so I analyse a condensed range of artistic practices from the contemporary moment. By paying close attention to the formal properties of the artwork, I attempt to demonstrate how the artwork can be understood as both an economic and pathological object, either neurotic, psychotic, perverted, paranoiac or hypochondriac.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Uncertainties in aerosol radiative forcings, especially those associated with clouds, contribute to a large extent to uncertainties in the total anthropogenic forcing. The interaction of aerosols with clouds and radiation introduces feedbacks which can affect the rate of precipitation
formation. In former assessments of aerosol radiative forcings, these effects have not been quantified. Also, with global aerosol-climate models simulating interactively aerosols and cloud microphysical properties, a quantification of the aerosol forcings in the traditional way is difficult to
define properly. Here we argue that fast feedbacks should be included because they act quickly compared with the time scale of global warming. We show that for different forcing agents (aerosols and greenhouse gases) the radiative forcings as traditionally defined agree rather well with estimates from a method, here referred to as radiative flux perturbations
(RFP), that takes these fast feedbacks and interactions into account. Based on our results, we recommend RFP as a valid option to compare different forcing agents, and to compare the effects of particular forcing agents in different models.

Anisotropic thermoelectric effects can be measured in certain materials. Anisotropy can also be simulated using a repeated, layered structure of two materials cut at an angle. Various aspect ratios and angles of inclination are investigated in device geometry in order to maximize the thermopower. Eddy currents have been shown to occur in thermoelectric devices, and evidence of these currents are revealed in finite element analysis of the artificially synthesized anisotropic Peltier effect.

This thesis examines an experimental and theoretical investigation into the dynamics of the reaction
HZCO (v, J, K8, K) + hv -—> HCO (v, J, N, K3, K) + H (2H). Formaldehyde molecules were cooled in a
supersonic free-jet expansion, dissociated with a laser and the ensuing formyl (HCO) fragments were probed
by laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy.
The initial experiments were carried out near the energetic threshold where very little energy is
available to the product fragments. Subsequent experiments were carried out in three higher vibrational bands
in the A( IAz) state. At these energies the dissociative surface is the formaldehyde ground state So, and the
formyl and H fragments are formed in their ground electronic and vibrational states. Formaldehyde was
prepared in numerous rotational states, characterised by J = 0 to 5, K8 = 0 to 3 and Kc = 0 to 5. The ensuing
distribution of rotational energy in the HCO fragment was measured as a function of the N, K“, K and
J = N i S quantum numbers of the fragment, and also the initial v, J, K“, Kr quantum numbers of the parent.
The results found a dependence on both N and K2, in the fragment that could be modelled well using statistical
analysis (phase space theory). This is consistent with statistical dynamics on a bound, barrierless surface.
Within le cm‘1 of the energetic threshold, a centrifugal barrier affected the populations by inhibiting product
states that require large orbital angular momentum. No dependence on the spin states, S = il/z, has been
observed.
The results also show a strong dependence on the quantum number, Kc, of both the parent and the
product. When the Kc is resolved in both the parent and product, there are large deviations from the phase
space theory model. We find that in the HCO K,l = l manifold there is always a preference (up to 5:1) for
HCO to be produced in either the higher energy Kr state (NW—1) or the lower energy state (N1,N)- This
preference is consistent over all N for any particular initial HZCO state, but may vary for different initial states.
A correlation between this Kr preference and the initial state was observed: odd Kr formaldehyde states
produce preferentially KC (lower) of HC0 and vice versa for initially even Kr states.
A “Kr—effect” has been observed previously in the photodissociation of acetaldehyde and
propionaldehyde to produce HCO. These experiments saw a strong preference for the upper energy
component of the KC doublet, irrespective of the initial parent rotational state. The other system where Kc has
been seen to play a role is the photodissociation of water. When H20 is photodissociated from a variety of
rotational states with full KC resolution, different Kr states produced different A doublet states in the OH
fragment. The similarities with these previous studies and the “Kc—effect” in formaldehyde are discussed and
used as the starting point to develop a theory to explain the “Kr-effect” observations.

The aim of this research is to determine the extent to which the framing of information can reduce the persistence of misinformation. The overall research consists of two experiments of which the first has been conducted and is described in this paper. It investigates the strength of differently framed statements and the degree to which the regulatory focus fit the participants experienced influenced their preference for certain statements. 52 participants have completed the survey in which they were presented several statements containing the same facts but framed differently based on the principles of valence message framing. The research found the positive goal frame, positive valence frame and the company s original statement to be most effective. These statements will form the basis for the second experiment which aims to combine the different frames in such a manner that the continued influence effect will be reduced.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The mixed state of type II superconductors is an ideal medium for the study of correlated systems since the density of vortices which penetrate the sample, as well as the driving force, can be tuned such as to measure their effects on correlations. The weak pinning character of the Fe xNi1-xZr2 metal glasses permits vortex phases to be probed by dissipative transport (longitudinal and Hall) measurements. The complete phase diagram in this regime is mapped out as a function of magnetic field, driving current and temperature using results from longitudinal resistance measurements. The longitudinal measurements show a huge peak effect with a driving force induced pinning phase known to arise from a disordering transition. The Hall resistance measurements lead to remarkable new results: a critical angle dependence of the vortex flow direction when entering or leaving the disordered phase is revealed, which suggests the existence of orientational phase transitions.

Gadkari, Parag. « EFFECT OF ANNEALING ON COPPER THIN FILMS:THE CLASSICAL SIZE EFFECT AND AGGLOMERATION ». Master's thesis, University of Central Florida, 2005. http://digital.library.ucf.edu/cdm/ref/collection/ETD/id/2937.
Texte intégralRésumé :
With continued shrinking of CMOS technology to reduce the gate delay times, an increase in the resistivity of the metal corresponding to the wire dimension is a concern. This phenomenon of increase in resistivity with decreasing dimension of the thin metallic film or interconnect is known as the "classical size effect". Various theories have been postulated to explain the phenomenon of classical size effect; these theories can be broadly classified as resistivity due to scattering arising from surface and grain boundaries. The total resistivity of metals depends on the electron scattering due to impurities, phonons, surfaces, grain boundaries, and other crystal defects. Managing the size effect in a practical and manufacturing way is of major concern to the microelectronics industry. Since each of the processes (phonon, surface and grain boundary scattering) adds to the resistivity and are interrelated, it further complicates managing the size effect. However, these effects have been separately studied. In this work, the effect of annealing on the classical size effect in Cu thin films deposited on SiO2 substrate is investigated. Polycrystalline Cu thin films having thicknesses in the range of 10nm to 200nm were ultra high vacuum sputter deposited on thermally grown SiO2 surfaces. The films were annealed at temperatures in the range of 150°C to 800°C in argon and argon+3% hydrogen gases. The un-annealed Cu thin films exhibit higher resistivity than the annealed films. The resistivities of un-annealed films were in good agreement with Mayadas and Shatzkes model. When annealed the films undergoes grain growth resulting in lowering the resistivities by about 20%-30% thereby confirming the role of grain size on resistivity of the film. However, there is a limit to annealing, i.e. agglomeration phenomenon. Agglomeration is a thermally activated process resulting in a reduction of the free energy of the film–substrate system and can occur well below the melting point of the material by surface and interfacial diffusion. The reduction of film-substrate interfacial energy, film-surface interfacial energy and stresses within the film are possible driving forces for agglomeration. This work also includes the study of agglomeration phenomenon. The agglomeration behavior of Cu is investigated and compared with that of Ru, Au and Pt thin films with thicknesses in the range of 10 nm to 100 nm UHV deposited on thermally grown SiO2 substrate. The films were annealed at temperatures in the range of 150°C to 800°C in argon and argon+3% hydrogen gases. Scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the agglomeration behavior, and transmission electron microscopy was used to characterize the microstructure of the as-deposited and annealed films. The agglomeration sequence in all the films is found to follow a two step process of void nucleation and void growth. However, void growth in Au and Pt thin films is different from Cu and Ru thin films. Residual stress and adhesion were observed to play important part in deciding the mode of void growth in Au and Pt thin films. Lastly, it is also observed that the tendency for agglomeration can be reduced by encapsulating the metal film with an oxide overlayer, which in turn improves the resistivity of the thin film due to prolonged grain growth without film breakup.M.S.E.E.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This thesis is a study of the size effect. Improvements on both theoretical work and experimental design are involved in this thesis. The theoretical section focuses on the grain size effect, while the experimental section is related to the micro-foil bending test. Both classic experimental data and theories for the Hall-Petch relationship are reviewed comprehensively. The fitting of the datasets show that the inverse square-root dependence and simple inverse expressions are equally good. The fully Bayesian analysis strongly suggests that the latter is correct. Since the physical mechanism underlying the simple inverse dependence is a general size effect, the precise description of the Hall-Petch effect is that it is a manifestation of the general size effect, instead of having its own special character. Improvements on the classic Stolken and Evans' micro-foil bending experiments are also carried out in this thesis. The smart design of the new equipment eliminates the big risk of error in the classic experiment. By using the new device, precise datasets from the elastic region through the yield point and to high plastic strain area can be obtained. The initial results correspond well with the old published data.

Engenharia Química e BioquímicaThe main goal of this work is to optimize the performance of the PDLC films with the introduction of an additive, in this case the triton X100. The polymer matrix of the PDLC is based on monomers, such as Tri(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate and poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate with molecular weight of 875 which were thermal polymerized using α,α-azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator. Different aspects were investigated, such as the study of the dynamics of the transition ON/OFF state using a high-frequency alternate voltage and the attempt to minimize the liquid crystal anchorage force to the polymer matrix observed. The polymer morphology and the composites synthesized were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The PDLC films were also analyzed resorting to additional studies of differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy and Fourier transform Infrared spectroscopy . Finally, the kinetic behavior of the PDLC films was studied. This part of the work was done with the goal to understand what was the impact of the increase amount of TX100 on the orientation and disorientation time of the LC molecules. Additionally, a fitting model was developed in order to describe the orientation and disorientation kinetic of the system. It was verified that the increase amount of TX100 modifies the initial anchorage force of the LC molecules to the polymeric matrix, decreasing it. This reflects on the increase of the permanent memory effect and decrease of the E90 of the PDLC films, verified also with the decrease of the average elastic constant, K, of the PDLC film. On this work, the best value for the permanent memory effect was 96% with an E90 of 2V/μm. However, this work also demonstrates that the kinetic of the system is independent of the amount of TX100, which means that the LC molecules orientate and disorientate at practically the same time with or without additive.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether there is a flypaper effect on the municipality’s welfare service expenditures, that is, if increased government grants will accelerate the welfare service expenditures more than increased tax revenues. The empirical analysis was made using a fixed effect model with data from all 290 municipalities in Sweden between 2011-2018. The results from the empirical model show that there is a flypaper the municipality’s welfare service expenditure, which is in line with the theoretical framework and previous literature. This result imply that the future welfare services will become more expensive if they are funded by increased government grants, rather than by increased tax revenues.

From the past until now, many scholars have been studied about performance of IPO, but few scholars put date of IPO into discussion. There are 191 IPO firms in our sample from March 2005 to December 2014 excluding TDR, F-Stock and financial industry. The main of our study discusses whether the date of IPO will influence the long term or short term return, take Weekend Effect, Monthly Effect and Financial Tsunami Effect to research, it’s different from the previous research of Weekend Effect and Monthly Effect, scholars only make research on stock for one day. Take Taiwan for example, since 2005 IPOs stock has not been limited up and down for the fifth day and three months as short term return and after six months and year IPOs become long term. According to the result, IPOs of Taiwan exist Weekend Effect. The IPO on Thursday of return is higher on that date. However, the IPO on Thursday of cumulative abnormal return is lower. That indicate the IPO on Thursday of return is Overly optimistic. The return of IPO on February, March, and April is higher than other months, but the return of IPO on November and December is lower than other months. With regard to Financial Tsunami result, the return of IPO before financial tsunami is lower than the IPO after Financial Tsunami of return, and the long term return of IPO after Financial Tsunami is higher than other period. It can be seen that the date of IPO has a notable influence on stock return indeed.

B 係數( 系統風險) 為投資學上衡量風險的重要方法之一。根據現代投資組合理論可 知，證卷過去的報酬率可用來估計B 係數。但現代投資組合理論並未說明報酬率應以 何種期間長度之觀察值來計算，而國外已有多位學者研究證明以不同期之報酬率所求 出B 係數值會不相同。另外，由於B 係數是來自夏普單一指數模式，因此若以不同的 股價指數及不同的報酬率計算方式來求算B 係數，是否亦會使得B 係數值產生差異？ 本研究以民國七十六年元月六日至八十牛十二月二十八日為研究期間，並根據有價講 券上市審查準則規定中，第一類股之實收資本額較第二類股為充裕，而以第一類股股 價指數來捕捉、大型股，以第二類股股價指數來掌握小型股。並藉由配對t 檢定及相 關分析等方法來探討B 係數是否存在期別效果、指數效果與計算效果？另外，由於B 係數之估計是採用時序資料，故本研究亦將考量自我相關問題，且以修正自我相關後 的B 係數再驗證此三種效果。並嘗試以B 係數兩個構成項目：相關係數及標準差之相 對比值來探討造成B 係數三種效果的主要來源。研究結果顯示： 1.考慮自我相關後之B 係數的各項效果與未考量自我相關時相比較，僅在顯著性與影 響來源上略有差別，但並不會影響B 值的變動方向。 2.我國股市第一類股之B 值皆低於第二類股之B 值，但以不含日資料時之表現較佳。 另外，不論是何種效果，第一類股與第二類股B 值之變動方向會完全相反。 3.期別效果確實存在，但此效果只有在二類股才顯著。至於不同期別B 值變動方向， 第一類股為隨期別縮短，B 值會增加；第二類股為隨期別縮短，B 值會增加；第二股 為隨期別縮短，B 值會減少。造成不同期別對B 值產生影響的原因除可歸之於標準差 之相對比值外，亦可以觀察對象之「市場價值相對於平均市場價值大小」來加以解釋 。 4.不同股價指數之選用的確會影響B 值之大小，亦即存在指數效果。該效果主要是受 相關係數影響。 5.若將顯著水準放寬，以10% 顯著水準，則本研究亦可得出"B 係數在計算效果"之結論 。該效果主要是受標準差之相對比值影響。

In the past decades, applications of the Internet, especially blogs, have become more and more popular to everyone who use the Internet. This research is based on the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) to investigate how people deal with product information. The intent is to explore whether blog persuasion effect continues and diffuses when consumers perceive initial persuasion and are exposed to a second persuasion context, described as Halo Effect in this research. This research designed a two-phase experiment with a blog context. In phase one, the researcher used the ELM to discuss how the people deal with information. In phase two, the researcher intended to know whether Halo effect exists. This research implemented a blog and used the experiments to collect data. A total of 410 participants, among which 385 were valid, participated in the experiment. Smart PLS 2.0 was used for reliability and validity assessment, and SPSS 17 was used for descriptive analysis and hypotheses testing. Result showed that in the first phase, source credibility had no effect on first persuasion, while argument quality did. Moreover, issue relevance had a moderating effect on the association between argument quality and first persuasion. In the second phase, it was found that website usability and first persuasion affected attitude toward the site, which further determined second persuasion. It was also found that user evaluation moderated the association between first persuasion and second persuasion. As past studies lack the discussion on the integration of ELM and halo effect, this research is believed to shed light for future research as well as provide blog marketers. Research limitations and suggested future directions for research were also provided.

Basu (1983) propose the P/E ratios effect, research proves there is higher rate of returns to the high P/E ratios in the low P/E ratio, for get rid of surplus as zero company, research this adopt E/P ratios than reference indicator that select stocks. E/P produced by two main parameters, one is earning per share (EPS), another one is the price. And high E/P ratios (Low P/E ratios) there is high return in the company, the reason may be the price very low or the earning per share is very high. Kross (1985) said that the stock price is the E/P ratios the main drive factor on the effect. And Stoll and Whaley (1983), Tseng (1988), Bhardwaj and Brooks(1992), Conrad and Kaul(1993), Loughran and Ritter(1996), Elfakhani and Wei(2003) find the effect of the low price stocks again, so, this text mainly probes into this E/P ratios the relation on the effect and effect of low price stocks. Finally we find that E/P ratios effect and effect of low price stocks exist on the stock market of Taiwan, after controlling the stock price, still there is E/P ratios effect. In addition analyze that find E/P ratios exist more alone than the effect from coming back.

This study aimed to explore whether the compromise effect will happen when consumers using the recommendation agent. By the experimental method, we investigate the impact of the recommendation agent for consumers’ decision-making behavior, whether the compromise effect will be significant. In this study, we review the literature that is about the compromise effect and recommendation agent first, and then designing the experimental. After the experiments, we analyzed the result, there is still compromise effect in consumers’ decision-making results in the traditional mode of shopping. In this experiment, the recommendation agent was affected by consumers’ trust, so the probability of the compromise effect didn't reduce, even with the help from recommendation agent.

Most research of the compromise effect focuses on making decision with complete information, but in the most situation, consumer have no enough information when they make choices. Hence, the purpose of the research is to explore the compromise effect with incomplete information. In this study, four experiments are conducted to determine: first whether consumers tend to choose the middle option more often when they choosing with incomplete information than complete information. Second, whether the choice uncertainty is the main reason when consumers choice the middle option with incomplete information. Third, if consumers can choose not to make a decision in an incomplete information situation, the compromise effect will decrease. The last, whether the compromise effect will decrease when consumers were asked to infer the missing value without enough information.

The process of moral judgment is usually made by adopting two clues of intention and consequence, however, intention and consequence are not mutually independent. Knobe (2003a) found that in moral judgment, consequence will actually affect an individual’s judgment on the intention of an actor., Given that the actor has clear initial intention to make certain behavior which will trigger a side effect that is already foreseen by the actor, when the side effect is positive, people tend to judge that the actor does not have the intention to cause the occurrence of the side effect, on the contrary, when the side effect is negative, people tend to judge that the actor originally has the intention to cause the occurrence of negative side effect. This asymmetric judgment phenomenon is called side-effect effect. Researchers attribute the psycholological causes of such phenomenon to : (1) mental capabaility: Leslie et al. thought that such phenomenon is highly related to whether a person can understand others’ mental state or not, therefore, such phenomenon could not be found in children with immature mental and intellectual state; (2) psychology of moral obligation: Knobe et al. thought that the phenomenon reflects people’s moral requirement and thinking in the daily life, for example, people are used to treat others’ moral behavior as obligation; (3) problem of experimental method: Adam &; Steadman thought that such phenomenon was caused by suggestions of experimental process, and it could cause answering inconsistency in different situations among the participants. This research has investigated firstly if such phenomenon has cultural universals, then the subsequent three experiments investigated in depth the mechanism behind such phenomenon. In experiment 1, the author replicated Knobe’s experiment, and it was confirmed that in Chinese culture, side-effect effect was also observed in moral judgment. In experiment 2, the influence of the extent of consequences (benefit or damage) on side-effect effect was studied. It was found that when the side effect is positive, the larger the extent of benefit, the larger the tendency to judge that the actor has the intention to let the positive side-effect result happen, however, when it is of negative result, then the extent of damage does not have effect on the intention judgment. In experiment 3, the influence of the occurrence probability forseen on the side–effect effect was studied. The result found that the occurrence probability will not affect the participant’s judgment on behavior intention, but in the mean time, it was found that the subjective anticipation of the participant on the difference of probability was larger than we expected. Hence, Experiment 4 is designed to display “very impossible” occurrence probability to manipulate the subjective accidental feeling. The result shows that probability anticipation will reduce the occurrence of side-effect. The research results have offered new perspective on the mechanism of the side-effect effect. There is different mechanism for the positive and negative side-effect result. In positive result, the extent of the benefit will adjust the tendency of intention judgment, and in negative result, the occurrence probability of the result is the moderator instead. The research findings have verified the argument of Knobe, that is, people’s intention judgment in moral situation, between positive or negative results, is done through different thinking process. In short, when there is positive result, people tend to see others’ behavior as obligatory, that is, high standard is used to judge whether other people’s behavior is virtue or not; however, when there is negative result, , people tend to consider the actor is bad-intented based on the scapegoat psychology.

Recently, more literature is discussing idiosyncratic volatility. The role of idiosyncratic volatility in asset pricing has become increasingly important because investors are limited by wealth, transaction costs, or the influence of trading systems, making it impossible to hold market portfolio to disperse idiosyncratic volatility. This paper base on Wei and Zhang(2006). By using the company's fundamental factors, the source of the impact of detection is from newly-listed companies or existing companies. The empirical results show that the volatility of stock returns mainly comes from newly-listed small companies.

The disposition effect is the tendency to sell winners too early and keep losers too long, commonly happened to investors. However, when investors use a high-leverage way, like margin trading, to trade, their disposition behavior might change. In this paper, I separate the two forms of transactions included in margin trading and observe their impact on disposition effect. Besides, when the government executes a policy reform related to margin trading, this could also affect the disposition effect. By observing listed companies in Taiwan from 1992 to 2018, we adopt Grinblatt and Han’s (2005) methodology and observe how margin trading interact with the disposition effect’s implication on the relationship between unrealized gains/losses and future stock return. The results show that with more margin purchasing (securities lending) balance, disposition effect’s implication on the relationship of unrealized gains/losses and future stock return is significantly stronger (weaker) and that these two opposing forces may be asymmetric. Accordingly, the association between the power of leverage, margin call, and margin requirement could be our explanation. Furthermore, I select two recent policy changes in Taiwan (“releasing short sales Restriction in 2013” and “further releasing of margin trading restriction in 2015”) and discover that both changes have significant negative influences on the disposition effect. Overall, the trading mechanism could be one of the factors affecting disposition effect and the government could change the trading mechanism through policies to refrain investors’ disposition behavior.

Abstract First of all, we discuss whether frame effect (investing gains or losses) affects investment intention when investors make new investing decisions；Framing refers to the phenomena that two logically equivalent questions lead to different responses because information is processed in different ways. And then, we involve anchoring (including externally generated anchoring and internally generated anchoring) to analyze the influence on investment intention. In our research, we found that： 1. H1A: The investors would have significantly higher investing intentions in certain return than uncertain return. 2. H2A: Under the positive framing effect, the investors with considering externally generated anchors would have significantly higher investing intentions than the ones without considering. 3. H3A: Under the positive framing effect frame, the investors with considering internally generated anchor wouldn’t have significantly higher intentions than the ones with considering externally generated anchors. 4. H4A: Under the externally generated anchors, the investors who know the certain return would have significantly higher intentions. 5. H1B: The investors would have significantly higher investing intentions in uncertain loss than certain loss. 6. H2B: Under the negative framing effect frame, the investors without considering externally generated anchors would have significantly higher investing intentions than the ones with considering. 7. H3B: Under the negative framing effect frame, the investors with considering internally generated anchor would have significantly higher intentions than the ones with considering externally generated anchors. 8. H4B: Under the externally generated anchors, the investors who know the uncertain loss would have significantly higher intentions.

With the development of behavioral finance, many studies explore whether individual investors and institutional investors exhibit behavioral bias.At present, there are literatures revealing that some mutual fund managers exhibit 'the disposition effect'.Therefore, this paper believes that mutual fund managers may have other behavioral bias.This paper examines whether mutual fund managers exhibit the house money effect, break-even effect or snake bite effect. By examining whether the prior profits/ losses affect managers’ subsequent risk-taking, we study the above three biases simultaneously. When a prior gain is present, investors tend to take more risks in the subsequent period--the so-called 'the house money effect'. And when in the presence of a prior loss, there are two possible outcomes may occur. First, in order to recover the prior loss, investors may take higher risk. That is, 'the break-even effect'. Instead, investor may retreat and do not invest to avoid risk, that is, 'the snake bite effect'. We calculate funds' realized gains (losses) as the independent variable, and use manger’s intended risk as the dependent variable. We also explore the effect of magnitude of prior profit/loss on risk-taking behavior, by splitting the whole sample into four subsamples of big gains, small gains, big losses, and small losses. The empirical results of this paper support the existence of 'the snake bite effect' of fund managers. However, this paper finds that the attitude of risk taking on the big gains (big losses) is higher than the small gains (small losses). Showing that fund managers are not completely rational. We expect that the empirical results of this study can enable mutual fund managers to be aware of the possible psychological biases and avoid them when making decisions. So as to maximize the fund performance with a rational and objective perspective. In this way, the results of this study will contribute to the analytical process of the decision-making of mutual fund managers.

Electric control magnetic of materials is a vision which raises intense due to it can dropped energy consumption. Some studies have shown that amorphous carbon (a-C) coating ferromagnetic material will generate interesting magneto-optic effect. In this study, The Au/C/Co/Au multilayers structures were grown by radio-frequency sputtering system. We investigate the magneto-optic properties of Co/C heterostructures by magnetic circular dichroism (MCD). Afterwards we observe the MCD of Co/C heterostructures changed as electric field was applied and value of MCD was shown to enhance with increasing incidence angles. After the Raman measurements, we observe electric field influence sp2/sp3 ratio in Co/C heterostructures. These results show that field effect may impact the magneto-optic effect at the Co/C interface.

Master’s Thesis International M.Sc. in Performance Analysis of Sport (IMPAS)This historical analysis aims to evaluate (1) the presence of relative age effects for the draft players in the National Basketball Association (NBA); (2) the presence of birthplace effects for the draft players; (3) the relationship between the draft order of players and their career performance; (4) the relationship between the relative age of draft players and their career performance; and (5) the relationship between the birth place of draft players and their career performance. To fulfilled that, we involved 1391 USA players and 237 European players in the most recent 30-years (1990–2019) of NBA drafts, firstly chi-square test was chosen to examine the existence of RAE and Birthplace Effect, secondly the USA player and European players were classified into three clusters according to their career performance, Kruskal-Wallis H test was conducted to determine the distribution of performance groups across different categories of the relative age, the birthplace and selection order. The results showed that the RAE and Birthplace Effect existed in the drafted USA players and drafted European players in NBA, and the RAEs for USA players changed to grander overtimes. The proportion of USA players born in medium cities of 5,000-999,999 and very small cities (< 50,000) are over-represented; the proportion of USA players from very large cities (> 50,000,000) are mismatch the larger scale of big city inhabitants of USA; European athletes born in cities with populations of 2,500,000- 4,999,999 and 100,000-249,999 have a higher chance of becoming a draft player, particularly in cities with populations of 50,000-99,999, whereas European athletes born in very small cities (5,000,000) have a lower chance of becoming NBA draft players. There are no relationships between the relative age, birthplace and career performance of players, while higher draft pick order is relative to better career performance of players were investigated. Those findings provide support for the sport- and culture-specific explanation that basketball should be carefully considered when analyzing the RAE and the Birthplace Effect. In addition, the different progressive systems of basketball in the USA and Europe should also be taken into consideration.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been discovered for over a century, but its origin is still highly controversial theoretically and experimentally. In this study, we investigated the scattering effect on the AHE for both exploring the underlying physics and technical applications.
We prepared Cox(MgO)100-x granular thin films with different Co volume fraction (34≤x≤100) and studied the interfacial scattering effect on the AHE. The STEM HAADF images confirmed the inhomogeneous granular structure of the samples. As x decreases from 100 to 34, the values of longitudinal resistivity (pxx) and anomalous Hall resistivity (pAHE) respectively increase by about four and three orders in magnitude. The linear scaling relation between the anomalous Hall coefficient (Rs) and the pxx measured at 5 K holds in both the as-prepared and annealed samples, which suggests a skew scattering dominated mechanism in Cox(MgO)100-x granular thin films.
We prepared (Fe36/n/Au12/n)n, (Ni36/n/Au12/n)n and (Ta12/n/Fe36/n)n multilayers to study the interfacial scattering effect on the AHE. The multilayer structures were characterized by the XRR spectra and TEM images of cross-sections. For the three serials of multilayers, both the pxx and pAHE increase with n, which clearly shows interfacial scattering effect. The intrinsic contribution decreases with n increases in the three serials of samples, which may be due to the crystallinity decaying or the finite size effect. In the (Fe36/n/Au12/n)n samples, the side-jump contribution increases with nn, which suggests an interfacial scattering-enhanced side jump. In the (Ni36/n/Au12/n)n samples, the side-jump contribution decreases with n increases, which could be explained by the opposite sign of the interfacial scattering and grain boundary scattering contributed side jump. In the (Ta12/n/Fe36/n)n multilayers, the side-jump contribution changed from negative to positive, which is also because of the opposite sign of the interfacial scattering and grain boundary scattering contributed side jump. The interfacial scattering effect on the AHE is much more complicated than surface scattering in thin films or scattering by delta-impurities in bulk-like samples.

Today, diversity means the performance of advertising messages, in order to attract the attention of consumers to advertising metaphors presented in the last 10 years become the most commonly used method.Because the metaphor can find advertising on behalf of something to convey the product concept, so that consumers understand the product characteristics so that resonate with consumers, increase consumer interest in the advertisement, further rising desire to buy. The main purpose of the present study intended confusing effect and attitude toward the advertisement of metaphor advertising and nonmetaphor advertising to consumers effects. This study uses the experimental design , the analyses were conducted in terms of attitude toward the advertisement (Aad). The effects of confusing effect, were using utilitarian products, hedonic products explored under the application of metaphor advertising and nonmetaphor advertising. The results indicate:1.The effects of confusing effect to consumers, metaphorical advertising more than nonmetaphorical advertising;2.Confusing effect of advertising attitudes have negative impact, the higher the confusing effect the evaluation of lower advertising;3.Hedonic product use metaphor advertising than of nonmetaphor advertising higher advertisement attitudes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Seurat’s contemporaries regarded his work as cold and mechanical, in the most pejorative way. Viewers in the late nineteenth century were inclined to chastise him and his impersonal touch and mechanical figures. By the early decades of the next century that view had been almost entirely replaced, and a new understanding of Seurat had blossomed: far from representing the threat of a mechanical world, he came to embody its promise. To these critics, Seurat’s technique was perfectly suited to their own era’s embrace of technology. Yet, as the modern era has begun to take shape, a third view of the artist has become more common. Although some viewers still regard his work as mechanical or formulaic in respects, an increasing number of scholars and artists reject the idea that his work is cold and mechanical at all. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore why these varying perceptions of Seurat were formed and how each reflects on the time in which it was embraced.text
