In this thesis, exponentially swept sine technique for measuring the impulse response are developed. This method provides an accurate way to measure the linear response and delineate it from harmonic distortions. Different impulse response measurement techniques are reviewed. as a comparison to the exponential sine sweep measurement method. Soundfield reconstruction systems designed to faithfully reproduce a sound event always suffer from spatial distortions due to different local acoustic environments and loudspeaker misconfiguration. Accurate determination of spatio-temporal response at arbitrary acoustic environments is essential to compensate for these spatial distortions. The strategy of incorporating the exponential sine sweep measurement method into the spatio-temporal response acquisition process is introduced. The Loudspeaker Radiation Pattern modeling method as an alternative way to acquire spatio-temporal response is also discussed.

My paintings are abstractions of the repeated patterns, shapes and structure I see and experience every day. My inspiration comes in many forms: found objects dropped or discarded by others, plowed and planted acres of soil, fence posts along edges of fields, blasts of train whistles and the silent spaces between them. All share similarities of repetition-the positive/negative relationship of reoccurrences with a cadence of structure and order but which never can be fully captured or contained.

Within this supporting paper, the artist discusses Generative Response, her Master of Fine Arts exhibition. This paper is a narrative of the artist's development, philosophies, and methodologies. Further, it illustrates how her work and development have been affected by studies in humanity, social activism, human responsibility, and environmental consciousness. Generative Response communicated the artist's ideology of process as metaphor for living life, involving the viewer in an "unfinished dialogue" wherein works of art undergo processes translating their role as part of a generative cycle. Generative Response was composed of seven sculptural components called "stations" depicting the processes of growth, habitation, consumption, erosion, and filtration. Each station operated as a micro-ecology that embodied these processes by using water literally and/or metaphorically as an agent of change. Materials included water from a local creek, found objects, glass, ceramics, copper, live organisms, and unique clay water filters.

As fragile and receptive beings, the past builds up and manifests itself through our daily actions and repetitive tendencies. There is a strong desire to control our appearance and physical signs of well-being.

Streszczenie:

The current classroom environment is filled with expectations for both teacher and student but is often lacking in time. Skolverket (2011) outlines ambitious goals such as developing students’ critical thinking abilities, adapting teaching to each student’s individual needs, and encouraging students to actively take part in the development of their own educational process, to name just a few. It is crucial to develop and use techniques that aid in attaining these objectives. Peer response could be such a tool. There is an abundance of research which demonstrates how effective it is, but there is also a great reluctance on the part of teachers and students alike to employ it in the classroom. This could be due in part to the idea that learners lack the necessary knowledge to correct and give feedback. However, this and other criticisms directed against peer feedback could be alleviated through deliberate formal peerresponse training. Most of today’s research on this topic seems to focus on English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) classrooms in the U.S.A and Asia, with little work having been done in the Swedish context. Also lacking are investigations regarding peer response in grammar testing, since most of the research emphasizes essay writing. This paper aims to add to the body of existing research on prompted peer response by examining its application in English classrooms in Sweden. To do so, two secondary school English classes in Sweden are tested by means of an abbreviated version of Gan’s (2011) prompted peer response model. More specifically, this paper’s objective is to explore if prompted peer response leads to improvements in grammar (operationalized in this case as reducing grammatical errors in a grammar test) when compared to unprompted peer response. In addition, this paper intends to explore whether peer response can possibly produce any additional rewards and what those could be. The results for this study seem promising. The primary results of this paper support the existing research in this area that prompted peer response leads to a reduction in student’s grammatical errors. Perhaps more importantly, the results suggest that it also aids students in developing a progressive approach to peer response which ultimately can lead to students developing learning strategies and self-reflection over their own learning process.

Allergic manifestations are increasingly common in infants and children. Accumulating evidence suggests that the ‘epidemic’ increase of childhood allergy may be associated with environmental factors such as stress. Although the impact of stress on the manifestation and exacerbation of allergy has been demonstrated, the underlying mechanisms of stress-induced exacerbation are still obscure. A growing number of studies have suggested an altered hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function to stress in allergic children. It is speculated that a dysfunctional HPA axis in response to stress may facilitate and/or consolidate immunological aberrations and thus, may increase the risk for allergic sensitization and exacerbation especially under stressful conditions. In the present review the potential impact of a hyporesponsive as well as a hyperresponsive HPA axis on the onset and chronification of childhood allergy is summarized. Moreover, potential factors that may contribute to the development of an aberrant HPA axis responsiveness in allergy are discussed

Streszczenie:

Response inhibition, which refers to the ability to cancel an already initiated motor response, is often considered to be a hallmark of Executive Control. The popular view conceptualises these control processes as deliberate and top-down. How- ever, what if you have cancelled the same response (say stopping at a pedestrian crossing) to a given stimulus (in this example the red do not cross pictogram) many times before? Does the resulting action cancellation remain an exclusively top down act of control, or does it become bottom-up with practise. Research suggests that repeatedly pairing a stimulus with withholding a response results in slowed reaction times and a decreased probability of responding, even when no longer appropriate (a phenomenon first reported by Verbruggen & Logan, 2008a). This thesis attempts to answer this question from an associative learning per- spective: Asking if repeatedly pairing a stimulus with action cancellation results in stimulus-stop associations. Chapter One introduces current perspectives on response inhibition, the dual- process model of associative learning, and a theoretical framework that attempts to integrate these areas. Chapters Two and Three ask what is learnt when a stimulus is repeatedly paired with stopping in response inhibition task: Specif- ically, Chapter Two investigate the contribution of stimulus detection. Chapter Three asks whether subjects are learning not to respond or withhold and pro- vides evidence for the feature-positive effect in stimulus-stop learning. Chapter Four investigates the role of explicit expectancies and incidental associations in this form of learning, whilst also exploring whether transcranial direct cur- rent stimulation can enhance the acquisition of stimulus-stop associations. Both Chapters Five and Six investigate how stimulus-stop training may transfer to other tasks and behaviours with a specific focus on why stimuli tend to be devalued after stimulus-stop training. Finally, Chapter Seven relates the findings of each respective chapter back to the theoretical model introduced in Chapter One.

Because of environmental pollution, forces the automotive industry constantly reduced emissions requirements legislated by the authorities. Improved techniques for engine control are a must for bringing down emissions. The use of an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) reduces NOx emissions significantly. Faulty EGR valves affect the emissions negative and therefore needs to be eliminated. It is possible to create malfunctions on the EGR valve by modifying the software of the control unit (ECU), but it does not create realistic malfunctions. The problem by modifying the software is that flags and various parameters are set to confirm the malfunction of the ECU. To create actual failure of the EGR valve an external tool to modify the control signal is needed. The project's main objective is on a flexible way creating malfunctions on the EGR valve in a truck engine. By investigating engine behavior in a realistic and credible way, one can eliminate malfunctions on the EGR valve. The aim was achieved by a model that has been developed that can, using electronics and a microprocessor read and create a control signal. The electronic circuit is controlled by the microprocessor, which can modify the signal and create malfunctions in the form of a slow valve "slow-response". A graphical user interface is used to change and influence the error signal. The circuit with the microprocessor is placed safely in a box to both protect and preserve the components. Simulation of Slow response has resulted in an incorrect operated valve being created. Using two different methods a Slow-response can be created. One method is a delay in time, which occurs when the new position is given, the second method is a ramp function when the control signal is gradually increasing. The software can also create an error that mimics a stuck valve of a fixed value. With the above listed methods it is possible in theory to find unknown malfunctions on the EGR valve that influence emissions negatively.

Streszczenie:

Early Growth Response Genes (EGR) is a family of four transcription factors containing a unique zinc finger domain. EGR-2 and EGR-3 are important for hindbrain development and myelination. These transcription factors are also necessary for lymphocyte function however, the mechanisms are still unclear. Previous findings have shown that EGR-2cKO mice develop lupus-like autoimmune disease with high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines despite showing normal T and B cell proliferation after mitogenic stimulation. Therefore we established the CD2-EGR-2-/-EGR-3-/- mouse model to explore the phenotype, susceptibility to autoimmune disease and relevant lymphocyte function. We discovered that CD2-EGR-2-/-EGR-3-/- mice developed severe systemic autoimmune disease and expressed high levels of inflammatory cytokines. More importantly we discovered a novel finding that CD2-EGR-2-/-EGR-3-/- T and B cells had impaired cell proliferation after mitogenic stimulation. Further investigations revealed that the molecular mechanism defected in the T cell receptor signalling pathway is due to a dysfunction in Activator Protein-1 (AP-1). AP-1 is a heterodimeric protein composed of AP-1 family members including Jun, Atf and Fos. Our data shows that EGR-2 and EGR-3 directly bind with the Atf family member Batf, which prevents Batf’s inhibitory function on AP-1 activation. This research demonstrates that EGR-2 and EGR-3 intrinsically regulate chronic inflammation and also positively regulate antigen receptor activation. In conclusion EGR-2 and EGR-3 are essential for providing optimal immune responses, whilst limiting inflammatory immunopathology. We propose that this new model could be used for studying autoimmune disease.

Previous studies on Kvitebjørn jacket have shown that there are discrepancies between the response obtained from numerical simulations and field measurement record. For some cases, numerical simulations under predict the response of the structure when measured wave elevation is used as input. The reason for these discrepancies is so far still in question. In this study, the following efforts were done to asses other possibilities of discrepancy of the the response: Modification of wave height. Impact assessment due to breaking waves. Observation on NORSOK N-003 recommended hydrodynamic coefficients. The analyses include the following combinations of kinematics and surface properties: Airy kinematics combined with second order surface Wheeler stretching kinematics combined with second order surface Second order kinematics combined with linear surface The simulation is done by using the latest updated model developed by MARINTEK (Økland O. D., 2009). The simulation results have shown that the wave crest at platform location is under predicted approximately for 3m. One possible cause for this is the occurrence of pyramid-shaped wave. The impact assessments in this study are using the wave impact model proposed by Wienke & Oumeraci and by Campbell & Weynberg. Simulations then show that impact profile as proposed by Wienke and Oumeraci may not be suitable for assessing the response. By using this impact profile, the response of the structure is still under predicted. The quasi-static response resulted from this impact profile seems to have under predicted the real response at the estimated impact time. The dynamic response is under predicted too even though the behavior can be modeled pretty well. Impact model as proposed by Campbell and Weynberg was able to approximate the measured response better than the previous impact profile in this case. Total response and dynamic response can be represented pretty well and if the presence of caissons/riser between the legs of the platform is considered, the quasi-static response may be able to be approximated well too. For the case of slender drag dominated structure like Kvitebjørn, simulations show that a bigger drag coefficient than the one proposed by NORSOK N-003 should be used to approximate the impact load on the structure.

Streszczenie:

Analysis and perceived severity of risk influences organizational decisions to anticipated threats. As economic development and technology improve our standards of living, they also create new challenges to conceptualizing concrete and abstract threats. Organizations that face new threats, along with agencies that oversee these organizations, produce tightly coupled systems that increase risks for direct, indirect, and future stakeholders (Perrow, 1999). Natural disasters, political misbehavior, organizational corruption, financial collapse, food and water contaminations, chemical or nuclear accidents, international tension, to name a few, all present risks and challenges. Unfortunately, many of these situations endanger the lives and well-being of persons. The ability of individuals to conceptualize, prioritize, and respond to myriad threats ultimately determines their risk perception and intention to act accordingly. Individuals often exaggerate some risks, while failing to acknowledge the severity of others (Sandman, 1989; Lachlan & Spence, 2007). This study will contribute to the understanding of subjectively constructed threats by examining three specific perceptual crises: A hoax, near miss, and risk misconstrual event. Each of these cases relies on robust newspaper descriptions, content analysis of media, and confirmatory organizational interviews. They are documented through a level of legislative action to determine real and structural changes incurred from perceptual crises. From these investigations this dissertation articulates how perceptual crises challenge organizations and governments, ascertains the viability of actional legitimacy theory, and observes variance in communication challenges between differing crisis contexts. These expectations encompass both applied and theoretical contributions.

Wifall, Timothy Curtis. "Reaching into response selection: stimulus and response similarity influence central operations". Diss., University of Iowa, 2014. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/1418.

Pełny tekst źródła

Streszczenie:

This dissertation examines the impact of stimulus and response similarity on response selection. Traditional models of response selection invoke a central processor that operates like a look-up table by matching the perceptually classified stimulus (e.g., green square) to the specified response (e.g., right button press). The look-up property of response selection affords the system the ability to map any stimulus onto any response, even if that stimulus-response has never been paired before. Under such an approach, the degree of perceptual similarity or dissimilarity that exists among stimuli in the environment should have little effect on central operations, the similarity or dissimilarity of the motor response executed in response to a stimulus should not influence response selection, and no interaction between stimulus and response features is permitted, given that stimulus features affect the encoding process, and response features affect the output process, but not response selection itself. Eight studies examine the influence of stimulus and response similarity during response selection. The first two experiments establish the interaction across different task demands between stimulus and response similarity. The interaction was not the result of perceptual difficulty (Experiment 3) and was extended to a new set of stimuli (Experiment 4). A consequence of the design in Experiments 1 - 4 was that response condition was confounded with response configuration. In one of the response conditions the target location had three competitors on one side of it compared to the other condition where the target had one competitor on one side and two others on the other side. Experiments 5 and 6 examined the separate roles that response configuration and response metrics had on the interaction between stimulus and response similarity. The mechanism that produced the interaction was the result of competition between partially activated stimulus-response alternatives. Experiments 7 and 8 further explored the role of competition during response selection by turning to traditional response selection methodologies that introduce competition through either the presentation of irrelevant stimulus information or through presenting the stimulus along an irrelevant spatial dimension. These data have broad implications for models of RS. To account for the ability to pair any stimulus modality with any response modality dominant accounts of RS assume that central operations are performed by a generic set of processes that operate over representations that are stripped of metric information (amodal representations). Response selection works as a look-up table that receives a categorized stimulus as an input and returns an abstract response code as output. This type of model cannot produce an interaction between stimulus and response similarity and thus, the present data provide a serious challenge to these types of models. Finally, the data provide evidence that the metric relationship between stimuli and response matter and influence response selection. The co-activation of stimulus-response alternatives are at a level of representation that includes both stimulus and response properties. A framework is presented that captures key aspects of the data.

Abstract Culturally Relevant Instruction integrated with Responsiveness to Intervention is considered a framework for creating equitable learning environments that engage and educate all students within the classroom. Creating equitable learning environments has been a problem for American educators for over forty years. Historically, the curriculum and instruction methods employed in most American classrooms centered in cultural paradigms that appealed to European American students and ignored the cultural significance of African Americans and other culturally diverse student populations. As a result, most African American students experience academic challenges in the classroom.

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) revealed that since the 1970’s, the academic achievement gap between African American and European American students’ averages between 20 to 30 points on standardized Math and Reading examinations. With such a significant gap in academic performance, professional development teacher training and schools of education programs have attempted dramatic changes in their approaches to curriculum and instruction. The purpose of this basic qualitative research study is to explore what twelve teacher participants consider the best practices for creating equitable learning environments in their classrooms. Data collection included interviews with teachers about what strategies are most effective for integrating Responsiveness to Intervention with Culturally Responsive Instruction and how to identify and implement evidence-based instruction that enhances learning. Future studies should focus on the impact of Re-normed tests on student performance and full implementation of all components of CRI.

Streszczenie:

Play in the school setting is a highly contested issue in today's restrictive academic environment. Although many early childhood educators advocate the use of play in their classrooms and emphasize the importance of play for children's learning and development, children beyond the preschool and kindergarten years are not often afforded opportunities to learn through play in their classrooms. This eight-month study, conducted in a first grade classroom in the outskirts of the Phoenix Metropolitan area of Arizona, analyzed young children's playful responses to literature as they read various books together in the classroom context. The purpose of this study was to develop deep understandings about the affordances of play in response to text within a first grade classroom and to investigate the ways that children utilize play to respond to literature and to construct meaning. This dissertation is informed by these guiding research questions: What are the affordances of play for responding to text in a first grade classroom? 1. What are the sociocultural resources that children use to respond to text? 2. In what ways do first graders incorporate and utilize play to make meaning with texts and each other in the classroom? In order to answer these research questions, I utilized several theoretical frameworks including: sociocultural theories of learning and literacy, the role of play and imagination in development, funds of knowledge, and reader response theories. This study was also informed by recent research findings in the areas of play and culture and play and literacy. I implemented a classroom Reading Center wherein I studied children's cooperative reading transactions and play as reader response. I collected data through classroom observations and field notes, videotaped and transcribed transactions, audiotaped and transcribed conversations and interviews, artifact collection, teacher observations of responsive play, family home visits and interviews, and the use of family story backpacks. This data, analyzed through thematic analysis, the constant comparative method, and grounded theory, revealed rich information about the ways that children utilize play to respond to literature in the classroom setting. The findings of this study provide evidence to suggest that through their play as reader response, their responsive play, children create a social space in the classroom which connects official school literacy practices and academic instruction with their social play practices. In this new space, children's play and talk take central roles in their explorations and uses of literacy. Findings further suggest that play can be seen as a generative source of academic learning, that the notion of response in research and practice be reconceived in the field to include play as a valid and valued form of reader response, and suggest that further research be conducted on children's responsive play.

Streszczenie:

Residential demand-side response (DSR) is a key strategy for meeting the challenges facing the UK electricity system. Leveraging residential flexibility should help to enhance system reliability, reduce carbon emissions, support the integration of renewables into the energy mix and deliver a lower-cost electricity system. However, the viability of residential DSR hinges on two critical factors: consumers will first need to switch to DSR programmes in sufficient numbers and then successfully respond by adjusting their consumption patterns accordingly. This thesis explores how to optimise the impact of residential DSR by examining the enablers and constraints of uptake and response. While participation is primarily encouraged through financial incentives, studies suggest that some consumers may be willing to participate for nonfinancial reasons. As such, this thesis also explores how environmental and pro-social motivations could be leveraged to help promote uptake and response. The thesis contributes to the knowledge on DSR by testing UK consumer preferences for different programme models through a large-scale online survey and identifying measures which could help to maximise uptake. It also explores the potential afforded by dynamic information-only programmes through a trial based on available wind generation. The thesis further makes a theoretical contribution by exploring how the Fogg Behaviour Model (FBM) can be used to conceptualise the enablers and constraints of uptake and response. By mapping these factors to the FBM's core components of ability, motivation and trigger, the model is refined as a tool for understanding how to optimise the impact of residential DSR. The research reveals that information-only DSR programmes may represent a significant untapped resource. Approximately 8% of a representative sample of UK consumers indicated a preference for this model over more conventional price-based programmes; while trial households succeeded in reducing electricity consumption by 9.9% on average when asked to consume less and increasing consumption by 4.4% on average when asked to consume more. These promising findings may help to inform policy and programme design as the UK energy system evolves towards a renewables-based future.

Streszczenie:

Prairie response to Canada thistle invasion was evaluated by comparison of forage yield between aminopyralid treated and non-treated infestations in North Dakota. In general, forage production was unaffected by Canada thistle in both grazed and wildland locations. The economic threshold was 37 stems m-2 for a treatment to be cost-effective. Canada thistle should still be controlled to improve overall flora quality. The susceptibility of 10 prairie forbs to aminocyclopyrachlor at 0, 35, 70, and 105 g ha-1 was evaluated in the greenhouse. Blue flag iris was tolerant and harebell was moderately tolerant to aminocyclopyrachlor. American licorice, prairie rose, purple prairie clover, and wild bergamot were moderately susceptible; however, plants may regrow in the field as some survived at 105 g ha-1. Azure aster, Canada goldenrod, great blue lobelia, and purple coneflower were very susceptible to aminocyclopyrachlor and likely would be eliminated in the field.

Streszczenie:

The topographical distribution of the early components of the flash visual evoked response (VER) were investigated using a twenty channel brain mapping system. Thirty subjects, ranging in age from 21 to 84 years, had flash VERs recorded using the standard 10-20 electrode system to a balanced non-cephalic reference. The subjects were divided into three age groups: a young group, a middle group and an older group. The P2 component (positive component around 100-120 msec) of the flash VER was recorded consistently over the occipital region throughout the age range, as was a frontal negative component (N120) of about the same latency. Only the young age group had this single negative component on the frontage channels, whilst the middle age group showed an additional negative component at around 75 msec (N75). Neither group had a recordable P1 component (positive component around 60-75 msec) over the occipital region. The older age group showed both P1 and P2 components over the occipital region with the distribution of the P1 component being more widespread anteriorly. The frontal channels showed both the negative N75 and the later N120 components. The frontal negative components were shown not to be related to the electroretinogram or the balanced non-cephalic reference, but were affected by the type of stimulation. Responses recorded to both pattern reversal and onset/offset stimulation did not show the frontal negative potentials seen with flash stimulation. It was shown that the P1 component is more readily recordable in the elderly and is preceded during middle age by the development of a frontal negative component at around the same latency. The changing morphology of the negative activity in the frontal region across the age range suggests that the use of an Fz reference would produce an artificial P1 component in the middle age group and an enhancement of this component in the elderly, as well as enhance the P2 component in all ages.

In this thesis, the ocean was modeled as a waveguide with an ideal pressure - release surface, and an ideal rigid bottom. The ocean waveguide was then treated as a linear, time - invariant, space - variant (TISV) filter or communication channel. The filter is time - invariant because no motion was modeled and because the properties of the ocean were assumed to be constant. The filter is space - variant because of the presence of the two boundaries, that is, the ocean surface and ocean bottom. This thesis investigates the ocean as a linear TISV filter by evaluating 1) the complex frequency response, 2) the impulse response, and 3) the transfer function of the ocean with respect to depth. It is shown that the TISV impulse response of the ocean contains information that can be used to help localize a target in range and whether the target is above or below the receiver. Computer simulation results were obtained by evaluating the three filter functions for several different test cases.

Mestrado em Biologia Molecular e Celular
A personalidade animal está ligada aos processos fisiológicos e bioquímicos do organismo. É definida como um conjunto individual de padrões comportamentais que se mantêm ao longo de um determinado período de vida. Estudos recentes mostraram a capacidade de muitos compostos, incluindo fármacos, interferirem no comportamento e em traços da personalidade. No entanto, o conhecimento sobre este fenómeno é ainda limitado. Sabendo-se que os fármacos podem interferir na personalidade, coloca-se a questão: qual será o papel da personalidade no efeito dos fármacos? Neste trabalho foi utilizado o peixe zebra (Danio rerio) como modelo biológico. Os organismos foram avaliados segundo parâmetros comportamentais e classificados e separados em dois grupos (bold e shy), com base no seu estilo de coping face a um novo ambiente. Como fármaco foi selecionada a carbamazepina, medicamento com elevada taxa de prescrição, detetado no ambiente e com uma reduzida taxa de degradação. Os organismos com os dois estilos de coping foram submetidos durante 96h a diferentes concentrações de carbamazepina (0.0044, 0.067, 1 e 15 mg/L). O estudo avaliou parâmetros comportamentais (e.g., distância total nadada e tigmotaxia) face a estímulos de luz (ciclos de luz e escuro) e biomarcadores bioquímicos. A aprendizagem e memória foram igualmente avaliadas com recurso a medições comportamentais diárias. Os dados obtidos revelaram diferenças nas respostas dos dois grupos de peixes, havendo um maior nível de atividade nos peixes reativos. As respostas aos períodos de luz/escuro foram diferenciadas. No escuro, a distância total nadada e a percentagem de distância nadada na área de fora são mais elevadas e a percentagem de tempo passado na área de fora foi menor. A carbamazepina por si só não influenciou as respostas analisadas. No entanto, as respostas dos peixes de diferentes personalidades dependeram das concentrações de carbamazepina a que estiveram expostos e do estímulo luz/escuro aplicado. Dos biomarcadores bioquímicos avaliados, LPO (peroxidação lipídica) variou de acordo com a personalidade, tendo os peixes proativos níveis mais elevados, e GST (glutationa-s-transferase) foi significativamente inibida nos peixes reativos pela maior concentração de carbamazepina. De uma forma geral os resultados mostram que estilos de coping influenciam a resposta a fármacos.
Animal personality is linked to physiological and biochemical processes of the organism. It is defined as individual behavioural patterns that are constant throughout a certain phase of life. Recent studies have shown compounds capacity, including pharmaceuticals, to interfere with behaviour and personality traits. However, knowledge about this phenomenon is still limited. Knowing that pharmaceuticals can interfere with personality, one question arises: what may be personality’s role on pharmaceutical’s effects? In this experiment, zebrafish (Danio rerio) was chosen as biological model. Individuals were evaluated by behavioural patterns and classified and separated in two groups (bold and shy) based on their stress coping strategy as a reaction to a novel environment. Carbamazepine was selected as pharmaceutical to study, due to its high prescription rate, detection in the environment and reduced degradation rate. Individuals with both coping styles were exposed for 96h to different concentrations of carbamazepine (0.0044, 0.067, 1 e 15 mg/L). The experiment evaluated behavioural parameters (e.g., total distance swam and thigmotaxis) in response to light stimuli (light and dark cycles) and biochemical biomarkers. Learning and memory were also evaluated resorting to daily behavioural measures. Data obtained revealed differences in responses between both groups of individuals. Behavioural data showed a higher activity level in shy fish. Responses to light and dark were also differentiated. In darkness, total distance swam and percentage of distance swam in the outside area increased comparing to light periods, whilst percentage of time spent in the outside area decreased. Carbamazepine alone did not influence responses analysed. However, responses from bold and shy fish depended on the concentration of carbamazepine and stimulus light/dark. From the biochemical biomarkers assessed, LPO (lipid peroxidation) varied according to personality, with bold fish having higher levels, and GST’s (glutathione-s-transferase) levels were significantly inhibited in shy fish exposed to the highest concentration of carbamazepine. Overall, results showed that coping styles influence response to pharmaceuticals.

This project presents the work performed within the aerodynamics department of Airbus Operation SAS inToulouse through a ve months master thesis. This department works with the industrialization and the use of tools developed by laboratories to perform CFD aerodynamic simulations. The primary purpose of the present work was to support the development of gust analysis methods based on CFD. A new gust model has been developed and integrated to the aerodynamic solver elsA.This solver has been used in order to compute the unsteady aerodynamic simulations for both gust loads and forced motions with CFD. The results were then compared with those from a Doublet Lattice Method computation for validation. Once the validation phase was ended with good agreement between the two methods, a Chimera simulation has been carried out.

The intersection of No Child Left Behind (2002) and the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (2004) made it necessary for educators to examine achievement trends within their schools and implement a Response to Intervention (RTI) program. This study examines the achievement trends in one school district since its implementation of a RTI program. To provide a clear perspective, this mixed-methods study includes both quantitative and qualitative data for analysis. The student data and teacher focus group responses indicate that while RTI efforts are having a positive impact on student achievement, it would appear that RTI alone is not sufficient to close the achievement gap in this particular school. An action plan for moving the school district forward in its RTI efforts is provided.

Utnarm is an employment fair and is held once every year in November and is always striving towards a better and meaningful fair. Last year they took a step towards that goal. An application for Android and IPhone were developed and released. It had the basic functions that could be used that year. This year Utnarm wants to improve the applications and fulfill the students’ experience. An audience response system could result in companies getting a closer connection to the students during lectures. The apps are easy accessible for students. This thesis describes the implementation of a system on two different platforms and the similarities and differences between them. This is accomplished by, using the model-view-controller design pattern in object-oriented programming, the help of the human interface guidelines and with a focus on usability and user experience. The result showed that there are differences and similarities and that it is easy to forget about them when focusing on an application. The functionality should be the same but the user interface should be different to make the user feel at home.

CHDS State/Local
From the events of September 11, 2011, the United States learned a large-scale disaster can strike without warning. President Bush issued a series of Homeland Security Presidential Directives (HSPD) intended to increase coordination among response agencies. However, despite the enactment of the HSPDs, coordination and collaboration among response agencies is significantly lacking with respect to radiological emergency planning and preparedness activities. Planning for nuclear/radiological events is unique in that they often occur with no notice, with great complexity, and require broad scenario planning to cover the important potential contingencies. Radiological events demand that actions be taken by responsible organizations, in a timely and effective manner to mitigate consequences on populations, infrastructure and environment. This thesis is intended to help officials better understand the many factors that impact coordination and collaboration. These factors range from information sharing to multidisciplinary participation. This thesis will also assist officials in better understanding the Capabilities Based Planning Model and how it may be implemented to enhance radiological emergency planning and preparedness. The elements included in this paper are intended to enhance the planning and associated decisions made by all partners involved in local radiological planning efforts. In conclusion, the thesis recommends enhancing radiological emergency planning and preparedness at the local level, through integrating the jurisdictions approach with the use of the Capabilities Based Planning Model to encourage performance partnership and collaborative methods.

Streszczenie:

Cyber-Incident Response (or, as it was initially called, Computer Incident response) has traditionally followed cyclic models such as the SEI Incident Response Cycle and SANS models, which aim to detect and identify incidents, stop, contain and eradicate them. Using the knowledge gained from the incidents, these models then advocate improving the capabilities to defend against subsequent attacks of the same nature. Although some later versions of these models, including the NIST model proposed in 2012, have nested the cycles to provide a more reactive response, they are neither demonstrably empirically founded nor do they represent the interests of all stakeholders within an organisation. This research addresses cyber-incident response from a broader perspective, looking from the viewpoint of a cross-functional set of stakeholders and ensures that incident response decisions are sensitive to temporal priorities, taken from an organisation-wide perspective and provide a range of responses rather than only containing and eradicating an incident. During this research, principal component analysis and structural equation modelling were used to develop the Dynamic Cyber Incident Response Model (DCIRM) which resulted in the development of a fielded prototype tool, the Cyber Operations Support Tool (COST). COST was then subjected to both controlled experimentation and operational validation. Empirical analysis of both of these activities confirmed the utility and effectiveness of the COST and the underlying DCIRM. The COST has since been used to train military cyber operational planners. The novel areas of this research are the dynamic nature of DCIRM which takes account of the changing asset values based on the point in the business/mission cycle, the trade-off between risk to the organisation and gathering intelligence during an incident, the flexibility in response options within organisational constraints and the abstraction of the information to allow a non-cyber specialist to make an appropriate incident response decision.
