Abstract (sommario):

Increasing numbers of gender-nonconforming children are socially transitioning—changing pronouns to live as their identified genders. We studied a cohort of gender-nonconforming children ( n = 85) and contacted them again approximately 2 years later. When recontacted, 36 of the children had socially transitioned. We found that stronger cross-sex identification and preferences expressed by gender-nonconforming children at initial testing predicted whether they later socially transitioned. We then compared the gender-nonconforming children with groups of transitioned transgender children ( n = 84) and gender-conforming controls ( n = 85). Children from our longitudinal cohort who would later transition were highly similar to transgender children (children who had already socially transitioned) and to control children of the gender to which they would eventually transition. Gender-nonconforming children who would not go on to transition were different from these groups. These results suggest that (a) social transitions may be predictable from gender identification and preferences and (b) gender identification and preferences may not meaningfully differ before and after social transitions.

Abstract (sommario):

Three guardrail-to-bridge rail transitions were developed and subjected to full-scale crash tests. The transitions were ( a) a nested W-beam with W-beam rub rail that transitioned from a W-beam guardrail to a vertical concrete parapet bridge rail, ( b) a nested thrie-beam that transitioned from a W-beam guardrail to a tubular steel bridge rail, and ( c) a tubular steel transition that transitioned from a weak-post box-beam guardrail to a tubular steel bridge rail. The nested W-beam and the tubular steel transitions were tested and met NCHRP Report 350 Test Level (TL)-3 requirements. The nested thrie-beam transition was tested and met TL-4 requirements.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract During their life course, many older adults encounter a transition between care settings, for example, a permanent move into long-term residential care. This care transition is a complex and often fragmented process, which is associated with an increased risk of negative health outcomes, rehospitalisation, and even mortality. Therefore, care transitions should be avoided where possible and the process for necessary transitions should be optimised to ensure continuity of care. Transitional care is therefore a key research topic. The TRANS-SENIOR European Joint Doctorate (EJD) network builds capacity for tackling a major challenge facing European long-term care systems: the need to improve care for an increasing number of care-dependent older adults by avoiding unnecessary transitions and optimising necessary care transitions. During this symposium, four presenters from the Netherlands and Switzerland will present different aspects of transitions into long-term residential care. The first speaker presents the results of a co-creation approach in developing an intervention aimed at preventing unnecessary care transitions. The second speaker presents an overview of interventions aiming to improve a transition from home to a nursing home, highlighting the clear mismatch between theory and practice. The third speaker presents the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on transitions into long-term residential care using an ethnographic study in a long-term residential care facility in Switzerland. The final speaker discusses the results of a recent Delphi study on key factors influencing implementing innovations in transitional care. The discussant will relate previous findings on transitional care with a U.S. perspective.

Abstract (sommario):

Transitional words make any piece of writing flow logically. If properly applied, they give writing cohesion and coherence. The use of proper transitions may be difficult for non-native speakers, particularly for second and foreign language learners. This study examines how frequently students use transitional phrases in their paragraphs. Thirty-six paragraphs written by students of the Department of English-College of Education at Salahaddin University in a writing course serve as the sample of the study. Knowing how frequently transitional words appear in student-written paragraphs is the main goal of the study. Depending on the research goal, the following questions are addressed by this study: How often do students use transitional words? What kinds of transitions do they typically use? The study can help teachers guide their students toward writing more effectively by suggesting appropriate transitions. The study uses quantitative content analysis to determine the frequency of transition words in paragraphs written by first-year students. Using JASP software that recognized and recorded the frequency of transition words, the paragraphs were examined. The outcomes reveal that students employ a range of transitional words, with “and” being the most popular transition. The results imply that students know how crucial transition words are for linking ideas in their writing. To learn more about how transition words and expressions affect the general coherence and clarity of students’ writing, more research is required

Abstract (sommario):

AbstractPhase transitions connect different states of matter and are often concomitant with the spontaneous breaking of symmetries. An important category of phase transitions is mobility transitions, among which is the well known Anderson localization1, where increasing the randomness induces a metal–insulator transition. The introduction of topology in condensed-matter physics2–4 lead to the discovery of topological phase transitions and materials as topological insulators5. Phase transitions in the symmetry of non-Hermitian systems describe the transition to on-average conserved energy6 and new topological phases7–9. Bulk conductivity, topology and non-Hermitian symmetry breaking seemingly emerge from different physics and, thus, may appear as separable phenomena. However, in non-Hermitian quasicrystals, such transitions can be mutually interlinked by forming a triple phase transition10. Here we report the experimental observation of a triple phase transition, where changing a single parameter simultaneously gives rise to a localization (metal–insulator), a topological and parity–time symmetry-breaking (energy) phase transition. The physics is manifested in a temporally driven (Floquet) dissipative quasicrystal. We implement our ideas via photonic quantum walks in coupled optical fibre loops11. Our study highlights the intertwinement of topology, symmetry breaking and mobility phase transitions in non-Hermitian quasicrystalline synthetic matter. Our results may be applied in phase-change devices, in which the bulk and edge transport and the energy or particle exchange with the environment can be predicted and controlled.

Abstract (sommario):

Background Transition to home after hospitalization involves the potential risk of adverse patient events, such as knowledge deficits related to self-care, medication errors, and readmissions. Despite broad organizational efforts to provide better care transitions for patients, there are challenges in implementing interventions that effectively improve care transition outcomes, as evidenced by readmission rates. Collaborative efforts that require health care professionals, patients, and caregivers to work together are necessary to identify gaps associated with transitions of care and generate effective transitional care interventions. Objective This study aims to understand the usefulness of participatory design approaches in identifying the design implications of transition of care interventions in health care settings. Through a series of participatory design workshops, we have brought stakeholders of the health care system together. With a shared understanding of care transition and patient experience, we have provided participants with opportunities to generate possible design implications for care transitions. Methods We selected field observations in clinical settings and participatory design workshops to develop transitional care interventions that serve each hospital’s unique situation and context. Patient journey maps were created and functioned as tools for creating a shared understanding of the discharge process across different stakeholders in the health care environment. The intervention sustainability was also assessed. By applying thematic analysis methods, we analyzed the problem statements and proposed interventions collected from participatory design workshops. The findings showed patterns of major discussion during the workshop. Results On the basis of the workshop results, we formalized the transition of care model—the socioeconomic, active engagement, follow-up, education, discharge readiness tool, and consistency (Integrated Michigan Patient-centered Alliance in Care Transitions transition of care model)—which other organizations can apply to improve patient experiences in care transition. This model highlights the most significant themes that should necessarily be considered to improve the transition of care. Conclusions Our study presents the benefits of the participatory design approach in defining the challenges associated with transitions of care related to patient discharge and generating sustainable interventions to improve care transitions.

Abstract (sommario):

In recent decades, global social and economic development has resulted in substantial land-use transitions. This was first observed with respect to losses of forested land, attracting worldwide concern. Forest transitions have an important impact on global ecology, whilst farmland transitions are key in terms of global food security. However, research into farmland transitions is lacking, particularly with respect to mechanistic analysis. Using data on China’s farmland areas between 1950 and 2017, we investigated the transitional characteristics, and triggers, of farmland change through linear regression analysis. Furthermore, based on the Advocacy Coalition Framework, we reveal the internal mechanism of these transitions. Our main findings are as follows: (1) between 1950 and 2017, China’s farmland area exhibited significant growth, and there were two transitions, namely in 1984 and 2004; (2) macroscopic economic and social changes determine the overall evolution of the farmland area; (3) there were two advocacy coalitions in the farmland transition policy subsystem—the farmland supplement and farmland consumption coalitions; (4) under the influence of macroscopic economic and social development, external events play a catalytic role in the transitions, and relatively stable parameters have an indirect but lasting effect in terms of transition outcomes.

Abstract (sommario):

Although numerous healthcare organizations have transitioned from one electronic health record (EHR) to another or are currently planning a transition, there are few documented artifacts, such as published studies or operationalizable resources, that offer guidance on such transitions. This panel seeks to begin a conversation about human factors considerations in EHR transitions from a legacy system. Panel members will discuss current literature and research on the topic as well as experiences with and lessons learned from transitions within their organizations. Panel discussion can be expected to identify new research opportunities, needed resources, and guidance for EHR vendors or healthcare facilities in the midst of or preparing for an EHR transition. Panelists will also lay out systemic issues that need to be addressed at the national policy and regulatory level. This topic is relevant not only to full-scale EHR transitions, but also has applicability for significant EHR version changes.

Abstract (sommario):

Background and Objectives The scope of interventions offered to infants with trisomy 13 (T13) or trisomy 18 (T18) is increasing. We describe the spectrum of care provided, highlighting transitions in care for individual patients. Patients and Methods This is a single-center, retrospective cohort of infants with T13 or T18 born between 2004 and 2015. Initial care was classified as comfort care or intervention using prenatal counseling notes. Transitions in care were identified in the medical record. Results In this study, 25 infants were divided into two groups based on their care: neonates who experienced no transition in care and neonates who experienced at least one transition. Eleven neonates experienced no transition in care with 10 receiving comfort care. Fourteen neonates experienced at least one transition: three transitioned from comfort care to intervention and 11 from intervention to comfort care. The three initially provided comfort care were discharged home with hospice and readmitted. Among the 11 cases who transitioned from intervention to comfort care, 9 transitioned during the birth hospitalization, 6 had no prenatal suspicion for T13 or T18, and 5 experienced elective withdrawal of intensive care. Conclusion The spectrum of care for infants with T13 or T18 illustrates the need for individualized counseling that is on-going, goal directed, collaborative, and responsive.

Abstract (sommario):

Transitions developed after experiencing one of the largest transitions of my life from an autonomous being and business owner to a pregnant woman to a mother, all during my three year Masters of Fine Art program at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. The first section of the show follows my emotional progression throughout pregnancy, as well as physical form, highlighting inner conflict. An emotional conflict and progression is illustrated through the use of emotional landscapes on the exterior walls of the space. Each emotional landscape is created from 25 canvas prints that I photographed on my mobile devices. The interior walls showcase my growing pregnant torso and separated oversized heads. The second section of Transitions deals with the issues of motherhood, specifically the working mother. As a working mother and graduate student, I have had to spend a large amount of time away from my daughter, and because of this I have felt a large amount of guilt and sadness. To illustrate these feelings I created installations from empty rocking chairs and all of the milk storage bags that have been used to feed my daughter in my absence. These two sculptures bookend a 10 minute long projection of my drive home taken on my iPhone. Around the exterior walls of this space, images of my daughter sleeping, and personal affects of her room are shown on large 36"x24" digital inkjet prints.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Low-dimensional materials are known to undergo phase transitions to differently or- dered states, when cooled to lower temperatures. These phases often show a periodic modulation of the charge density (called a charge density wave – CDW) coupled with a periodic perturbation of the crystal lattice (called a periodic lattice distortion – PLD). Although many experiments have been performed and much has been learnt about CDW phases in low-dimensional materials, the reasons for their existence are still not fully understood yet. Many processes, involving either strong electron–electron or electron–lattice coupling, have been observed which all might play a role in explaining the formation of different phases under different conditions. With the availability of femtosecond lasers it has become possible to study materials under highly nonequilibrium conditions. By suddenly introducing a known amount of energy into the system, the equilibrium state is disturbed and the subsequent relax- ation processes are then observed on timescales of structural and electronic responses. These experiments can deliver valuable information about the complex interactions between the different constituents of condensed matter, which would be inaccessible under equilibrium conditions. We use time resolved electron diffraction to investigate the behaviour of a CDW system perturbed by a short laser pulse. From the observed changes in the diffraction patterns we can directly deduce changes in the lattice structure of our sample. A femtosecond electron diffraction setup was developed at the Laser Research In- stitute in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Short laser pulses produce photo electrons which are accelerated to an energy of 30 keV. Despite space charge broadening effects, elec- tron pulses shorter than 500 fs at sample position can be achieved. Technical details of this system and its characterisation as well as sample preparation techniques and analysis methods are described in detail in this work. Measurements on two members of the quasi-two-dimensional transition metal di- chalcogenides, namely 4Hb-TaSe2 and 1T-TaS2, are shown and discussed. Both show fast (subpicosecond) changes due to the suppression of the PLD and a rapid heating of the lattice. When the induced temperature rise heats the sample above a phase tran- sition temperature, a complete transformation into the new phase was observed. For 4Hb-TaSe2 we found that the recovery to the original state is significantly slower if the PLD was completely suppressed compared to only disturbing it. On 1T-TaS2 we could not only study the suppression of the original phase but also the formation of the higher energetic CDW phase. Long (100 ps) time constants were found for the tran- sition between the two phases. These suggest the presence of an energy barrier which has to be overcome in order to change the CDW phase. Pinning of the CDW by de- fects in the crystal structure result in such an energy barrier and consequently lead to a phase of domain growth which is considerably slower than pure electron or lattice dynamics.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit is bekend dat lae-dimensionele materie fase oorgange ondergaan na anders ge- ori¨enteerde toestande wanneer afgekoel word tot laer temperature. Hierdie fases toon dikwels ’n periodiese modulasie van die elektron digtheid (genoem ’n “charge density wave” – CDW), tesame met ’n periodiese effek op die kristalrooster (genoem ’n “peri- odic lattice distortion” – PLD). Alhoewel baie eksperimente al uitgevoer is en al baie geleer is oor hierdie CDW fase, is die redes vir hul bestaan nog steeds nie ten volle verstaan nie. Baie prosesse, wat of sterk elektron–elektron of elektron–fonon interaksie toon, is al waargeneem en kan ’n rol speel in die verduideliking van die vorming van die verskillende fases onder verskillende omstandighede. Met die beskikbaarheid van femtosekonde lasers is dit nou moontlik om materie onder hoogs nie-ewewig voorwaardes te bestudeer. Deur skielik ’n bekende hoeveel- heid energie in die stelsel in te voer, word die ewewigstaat versteur en word die daar- opvolgende ontspanning prosesse waargeneem op die tydskaal van atomies struktu- rele en elektroniese bewiging. Hierdie eksperimente kan waardevolle inligting lewer oor die komplekse interaksies tussen die verskillende atomiese komponente van ge- kondenseerde materie, wat ontoeganklik sou wees onder ewewig voorwaardes. Ons gebruik elektrondiffraksie met tyd resolusie van onder ’n pikosekonde om die gedrag van ’n CDW stelsel te ondersoek nadat dit versteur is deur ’n kort laser puls. Van die waargenome veranderinge in die diffraksie patrone kan ons direk aflei watse veranderinge die kristalstruktuur van ons monster ondergaan. ’n Femtosekonde elektronendiffraksie opstelling is ontwikkel by die Lasernavors- ingsinstituut in Stellenbosch, Suid-Afrika. Kort laser pulse produseer foto-elektrone wat dan na ’n energie van 30 keV versnel word. Ten spyte van Coulomb afstoting ef- fekte, kan elektron pulse korter as 500 fs by die monster posisie bereik word. Tegniese besonderhede van hierdie opstelling, tegnieke van die voorbereiding van monsters asook analise metodes word volledig in hierdie tesis beskryf. Metings op twee voorbeelde van kwasi-tweedimensionele semi-metale, naamlik 4Hb-TaSe2 en 1T-TaS2, word gewys en bespreek. Beide wys ’n vinnige (subpikosekon- de) verandering as gevolg van die versteuring van die PLD en ’n vinnige verhitting van die kristalrooster. Wanneer die ge¨ınduseerde temperatuur bo die fase oorgang tempe- ratuur styg, is ’n volledige transformasie na die nuwe fase waargeneem. Vir 4Hb-TaSe2 het ons gevind dat die herstelling na die oorspronklike toestand aansienlik stadiger is as die PLD heeltemal viernietig is in vergelyking met as die PLD net versteur is. Met 1T-TaS2 kon ons nie net alleenlik die vernietiging van die oorspronklike fase sien nie, maar ook die vorming van ’n ho¨er energie CDW fase. Lang (100 ps) tydkonstante is gevind vir die oorgang tussen die twee fases. Hierdie dui op die teenwoordigheid van ’n energie-versperring wat eers oorkom moet word om die CDW fase voledig te ver- ander. Vaspenning van die CDW deur defekte in die kristalstruktuur veroorsaak so’n energie versperring en gevolglik lei dit tot ’n fase van groeiende CDW gebiede wat heelwat stadiger as pure elektron of kritalrooster dinamika is.

Abstract (sommario):

The reported multiferroic perovskite series Sr1-xAxTi1/2Mn1/2O3 has been the subject of numerous structural studies, without reaching consensus. In the current work, the cubic Pm3 ̅m is confirmed for end member SrTi1/2Mn1/2O3 in the Sr1-xAxTi1/2Mn1/2O3 ( A= Ca, La; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) series. The Pm3 ̅m  I4/mcm  Pbnm structural evolution was observed with increased doping level of Ca. A cubic Pm3 ̅m  rhombohedral R3 ̅c transition occurred when La is substituted instead of Ca. Interesting magnetic behaviours were observed and the major contribution to this was concluded to be the mixed Mn4+/Mn3+ ratio. Ru and Ir have almost identical ionic radii and behave similarly in many ways. Remarkably the structure and properties of SrRuO3 and SrIrO3 are different. The current study revealed that the divalent transition metal doped materials of the type SrR1-xMxO3 (R = Ru, Ir, and M = 3d transition metals) are isostructural. This was achieved by the synthesis of a number of new materials of the type SrIr1-xMxO3. Therefore, these two series are comparatively described in the thesis. The structure and physical properties of the iron doped series SrIr1-xFexO3 are found to be different from those of the divalent doped ones, and this was even true for Ru analogues. Therefore, Fe-doped SrRuO3 and SrIrO3, based on the results of the same level doped materials are presented in a separate chapter. In the final chapter, the impact of Cu2+ doping on the structure and electronic properties of LaCrO3 is described. In order to understand structure property relationships, all the materials structurally characterised have had magnetic and resistivity measurements conducted. Special attention is given to realise the correlations between structure, magnetism, and conductivity.

Abstract (sommario):

A city is a structure of single elements that has grown in time and is characterized by political, economical, aesthetic and topographical influences. Looked at it historically, a city is a logical structure, whereas all the single elements add up to a big structure and for each individual city typical overall character. Except for some special and important buildings (mostly churches) the individual buildings interacted with the general city structure and often even with each other. It is my contention that contemporary urban design should work toward the reconstruction of sympathetic interrelationships in urban spaces and buildings. Transitions should be used for interaction to make the pieces work together as a whole. This we experience mainly spatially. But transitions can be achieved in many different layers (social, spatial, thermal...). My research shall help to find out about these different layers individually and how they work together, to define them and finally apply them to a design. The site I chose for the design is the new civic plaza in Tucson, Arizona. The plaza, as part of the Rio Nuevo project, is planned to be the new main plaza for the city with its 800.000 people (year 2000). The site is an empty lot right now; all buildings are roughly laid out in size and function, but not defined in detail. This allows starting the design with the plaza and letting the buildings react to it. Mainly public buildings are supposed to border the plaza. A hotel is located to the east, a parking structure with retail on the north and different museum buildings to the west and south. My goal for the plaza is to create several activity zones of different sizes (spaces for large (outdoor concerts) and small gatherings (private spots within the public space) and different activities (walking, sitting, resting and watching). Different things may happen simultaneously, but also change during a day's or even a year's period of time. Big events like open -air concerts should be possible as well as small events of interaction between few people at the same spot during different times. All these different elements should tie together spatially supported by transitions of material, thermal comfort, light and social aspects and form a big stage of events in a continuous scene. Transitions of different kinds could achieve a change of space without losing the connection to the greater scale. As a person for example is walking from the plaza into a building (museum), he might experience transitions thermally (sun - shade - cooled air and shade - enclosed air - conditioned space) as well as spatially (same floor material inside and outside) or socially as space becomes more and more private (plaza - café area in front of museum - museum lobby - exhibition). As the change of space happens in little steps and each step connects to the previous, a change of space can be achieved without losing the overall gesture. As the plaza is located in the desert, it is important to research the climate as well to be able to establish a good comfort level at specific spaces for people to rest outside within the plaza throughout the year and at different times of day.

Abstract (sommario):

This dissertation argues that the just transition policy framework may not vivify labor internationalism or erode support for right-wing populists if just transitions are not part of left-wing populist projects. Labor internationalism, which involves labor unions cooperating across borders to pursue common goals, is increasingly important as unions strive to work with their foreign counterparts to influence the international community's urgent efforts to address climate change. Right-wing populism is a growing threat to organized labor and climate protection efforts. Some labor activists hope that advocacy for the just transition policy framework, a set of guidelines for compensating workers in polluting industries who are laid-off as a result of environmental protections, will unite labor organizations from around the world and improve their approaches to international solidarity. Progressives hope that just transition policies will discourage voters from supporting right-wing populist candidates, who are often climate skeptics, out of fear of the job losses that accompany environmentalist reforms. However, I question the assumption that just transition policies, in and of themselves, can serve as solutions to the challenges posed by right-wing populism or overcome divisions within the global labor movement. It is possible for economic nationalism at the expense of global solidarity to continue and for right-wing populists to maintain support in decarbonizing areas where policy makers have indemnified laid-off fossil fuel workers. Integrating just transition policies into left-wing populist politics could potentially make just transitions more useful for countering the far-right and promoting labor internationalism. This dissertation looks to the political theorist Antonio Gramsci's thoughts regarding the "national popular," which Gramsci's readers often associate with left-wing populism. The national popular entails intellectuals from different fields (such as the academy, journalism, and manufacturing) coming together to modernize patriotism and strip it of chauvinistic nationalism. I point out that the original proposals for just transitions prioritized providing free higher education for the workers laid-off from polluting industries. The just transition framework's stress on higher education has populistic implications. Educators, particularly members of teachers' unions, may practice populism throughout the implementation of a just transition for laid-off coal workers by encouraging the displaced workers to cooperate with knowledge workers to rethink nationalism. If workers displaced from polluting industries rethink nationalism in university settings while maintaining their connections to the labor movement, then these workers may in turn reject far-right politicians and discourage organized labor from supporting trade nationalism.
Doctor of Philosophy
This dissertation argues that the just transition policy framework may not vivify labor internationalism or erode support for right-wing populists if just transitions are not part of left-wing populist projects. Labor internationalism, which involves labor unions cooperating across borders to pursue common goals, is increasingly important as unions strive to work with their foreign counterparts to influence the international community's urgent efforts to address climate change. Right-wing populism is a growing threat to organized labor and climate protection efforts. Some labor activists hope that advocacy for the just transition policy framework, a set of guidelines for compensating workers in polluting industries who are laid-off as a result of environmental protections, will unite labor organizations from around the world and improve their approaches to international solidarity. Progressives hope that just transition policies will discourage voters from supporting right-wing populist candidates, who are often climate skeptics, out of fear of the job losses that accompany environmentalist reforms. However, I question the assumption that just transition policies, in and of themselves, can serve as solutions to the challenges posed by right-wing populism or overcome divisions within the global labor movement. It is possible for economic nationalism at the expense of global solidarity to continue and for right-wing populists to maintain support in decarbonizing areas where policy makers have indemnified laid-off fossil fuel workers. Integrating just transition policies into left-wing populist politics could potentially make just transitions more useful for countering the far-right and promoting labor internationalism. This dissertation looks to the political theorist Antonio Gramsci's thoughts regarding the "national popular," which Gramsci's readers often associate with left-wing populism. The national popular entails intellectuals from different fields (such as the academy, journalism, and manufacturing) coming together to modernize patriotism and strip it of chauvinistic nationalism. I point out that the original proposals for just transitions prioritized providing free higher education for the workers laid-off from polluting industries. The just transition framework's stress on higher education has populistic implications. Educators, particularly members of teachers' unions, may practice populism throughout the implementation of a just transition for laid-off coal workers by encouraging the displaced workers to cooperate with knowledge workers to rethink nationalism. If workers displaced from polluting industries rethink nationalism in university settings while maintaining their connections to the labor movement, then these workers may in turn reject far-right politicians and discourage organized labor from supporting trade nationalism.

Abstract (sommario):

We study dynamic phase transitions in the constant-volume and constant- pressure ensembles of two different systems: a one-dimensional system of diffusive hard particles and a three-dimensional glass-former of nearly-hard repulsive particles. The dynamic transitions are observed using ensembles of trajectories biased with respect to their dynamic activity, biasing to greater or lower activities than equilibrium allows us to sample different dynamic phases. We perform finite-size scaling of the transitions with respect to sys- tem size and observation time, and compare them to first-order phase tran- sitions. The two ensembles are not equivalent in the one-dimensional model. We compare our results to analytic predictions for diffusive systems in both the active and inactive phases, there are structural signatures for both dy- namic regimes. The active phases show hyperuniform ordering and the inac- tive regimes show jamming behaviour, local jamming in the constant-volume ensemble is achieved through phase separation. In the three-dimensional sys- tem we observe a dynamic transition to a glassy inactive phase, there is no obvious structural change and the structural relaxation time increases sig- nificantly. We take configurations from the active and inactive phases and subject them to a jamming protocol in order to compare the final density of the jammed packings. Previous work shows that the inactive phase of glass-forming systems have a different distribution of vibrational modes and a higher compressibility, this suggests that the jamming behaviour should differ between the two phases. We show that jammed packings generated from inactive configurations are denser than those generated from active configurations.

Abstract (sommario):

AbstractThis chapter focuses on the fertility transitions of individual countries. Countries are the entities that make policy decisions and implement family planning programs. Each country has a special set of economic, political, social and cultural conditions that influence fertility trends and related policies. We describe levels and trends in fertility in 97 developing countries between 1950 and 2020. Measures related to successive phases of the transitions are provided, including pre-transitional fertility, the timing of the onset, the pace of fertility decline, the timing of the transition’s end and post-transitional fertility. A special section discusses countries that have experienced a “stall” in their fertility transition. Transition patterns varied widely among developing countries over the past seven decades. Countries such as Singapore, Mauritius, Korea, Taiwan, and China experienced early, rapid, and complete transitions. In contrast, transitions in all but one country (South Africa) in sub-Saharan Africa have been late and slow, and fertility today remains well above replacement. Among the 97 countries examined, only 42 have reached the end of the transition, which is defined as having reached a TFR below 2.5 in 2020. The majority of countries are still in transition, and some have barely started a fertility decline.

Abstract (sommario):

Four classes of shape representation are dominating nowadays in computer-supported design and modeling of products, (1) point clouds, (2) surface meshes, (3) solid/surface models and (4) design/styling models. To support applications such as high-level shape design, feature-based design, shape modeling, shape analysis, rapid prototyping, feature recognition and shape presentation, it is required that transitions among and within the four representation classes take place. Transitions from a “lower” representation class to “higher” class are far from trivial, and at the same time highly demanded for reverse design purposes. New methods and algorithms are needed to accomplish new transitions. A characterization of the four classes is presented, the most relevant transitions are reviewed and a relatively new transition, from point cloud directly to design/styling model is proposed and experimented. The importance of this transition for new methods of shape reuse and redesign is pointed out and demonstrated.

Abstract (sommario):

To address the pressing challenge of climate change, there is an urgent need for transitions in energy, food, transportation and other systems. Meanwhile, there are groups of people, including workers in carbon-intensive sectors, who lose out in the transition process and are impacted negatively, socially and economically. At its core, the idea of just transitions reflects the notion that transitions need to fully consider their needs, including the creation of new opportunities in the greener and lower-carbon economies built to replace carbon-intensive sectors.
