Abstract:
When forces are applied to matter, the distribution of mass changes. Similarly, when an electric field is applied to matter with charge, the distribution of charge changes. The change in the distribution of charge (when a local electric field is applied) might in general be called the induced charge. When the change in charge is simply related to the applied local electric field, the polarization field P is widely used to describe the induced charge. This approach does not allow electrical measurements (in themselves) to determine the structure of the polarization fields. Many polarization fields will produce the same electrical forces because only the divergence of polarization enters Maxwell’s first equation, relating charge and electric forces and field. The curl of any function can be added to a polarization field P without changing the electric field at all. The divergence of the curl is always zero. Additional information is needed to specify the curl and thus the structure of the P field. When the structure of charge changes substantially with the local electric field, the induced charge is a nonlinear and time dependent function of the field and P is not a useful framework to describe either the electrical or structural basis-induced charge. In the nonlinear, time dependent case, models must describe the charge distribution and how it varies as the field changes. One class of models has been used widely in biophysics to describe field dependent charge, i.e., the phenomenon of nonlinear time dependent induced charge, called ‘gating current’ in the biophysical literature. The operational definition of gating current has worked well in biophysics for fifty years, where it has been found to makes neurons respond sensitively to voltage. Theoretical estimates of polarization computed with this definition fit experimental data. I propose that the operational definition of gating current be used to define voltage and time dependent induced charge, although other definitions may be needed as well, for example if the induced charge is fundamentally current dependent. Gating currents involve substantial changes in structure and so need to be computed from a combination of electrodynamics and mechanics because everything charged interacts with everything charged as well as most things mechanical. It may be useful to separate the classical polarization field as a component of the total induced charge, as it is in biophysics. When nothing is known about polarization, it is necessary to use an approximate representation of polarization with a dielectric constant that is a single real positive number. This approximation allows important results in some cases, e.g., design of integrated circuits in silicon semiconductors, but can be seriously misleading in other cases, e.g., ionic solutions.

Abstract:
In this paper, the concept of Casimir charge is introduced, which is defined to be the characteristic quantity that describes an elementary particle. From the viewpoint of Casimir charge, the definition of charge conjugation is analyzed. As a result we find that the definition is not self-consistent, perhaps this is responsible for C violation.

Abstract:
Use of the electron amplitude (i.e., the square root of the electron density) in place of the electron density in Bader's topological theory of atoms in molecules, is shown to lead to identical definitions of bond paths and interatomic surfaces. The concepts of regions of charge concentration and depletion, derived from the Laplacian of the electron density, become the concepts of classically allowed and forbidden regions of space when derived from the Laplacian of the electron amplitude, because the latter is the wave function in the exact Schrödinger equation for (any) one electron in the many-electron molecule. However, the domains of corresponding regions are different, the size and depth of a classically allowed region always being larger than the corresponding region of charge concentration; in some cases there is no region of charge concentration corresponding to a classically allowed region. The surface between the outermost allowed and forbidden regions of space provides a definition of the size and shape of the molecule. This definition of the outermost surface of the electronic charge cloud (the molecular envelope) is exact apart from quantum mechanical tunelling. Hence it is proposed as a basis for molecular graphics; i.e., as the unique, non-arbitrary, and, in principle, exact definition of the size and shape of a molecule. Key words: electron density, quantum chemistry, molecular graphics.

Abstract:
Abstract : In this thesis, I explore the kids-take-charge (KTC) motif within recent school stories produced for young adult audiences, situated in terms of a genealogy of school stories. The corpus of school stories includes English- and French-language works produced as fiction, film, or life-writing, both for teens and adults in Canada, the US, and the UK. This thesis identifies the historical and ideological shifts that may have given rise to the motif. School stories lend themselves to the identification of some of the distinct models of selfhood and ‘coming into one’s own’ that have figured prominently in works about and for adolescents in various sociocultural contexts. The research question that is asked is: Why is this type of story emerging now, and what social purposes might it serve? The question is inspired by the possible impact of power relations on youth in society, discussed in Disturbing the Universe: Power and Repression in Adolescent Literature by Roberta Trites, who suggests that power is everywhere in young adult literature because power is the key category of the adolescent experience. The thesis also draws on the work of theorists such as Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, Beverly Lyon Clark, Henry Giroux, George Herbert Mead and Charles Horton Cooley, among others. The corpus includes the following works: The Lightning Thief, part of the Percy Jackson series by American author Rick Riordan; Schooled, by Canadian-born author Gordon Korman; the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling; High School Musical, a film that appeared in movie theatres and was shown on the Disney Channel; Harriet’s Daughter by M. NourbeSe Philip; and variations on the classic residential and early school stories as they travelled to the New World, such as Louisa May Alcott's Jo's Boys; Thomas Hughes' Tom Brown School Days, LM Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables, and Ralph Connor's Glengarry School Days, among other works. iv Chapter One establishes the contours of the KTC motif via a variety of contemporary fictional works for young adults through contrasting the stories of change-making by young adults in these works with patterns found both in classic British school stories of the 19th century and in early Canadian and American variations on the theme. The chapter explores what it means for young people to achieve an adult sense of self, and what resources they are expected to engage in the process. The chapter also examines the kinds of models of youth selfhood and emerging adulthood that can be linked to the KTC motif. In Chapter Two, I argue that a qualitatively new motif concerning power and agency has emerged within a number of school stories produced over the past two decades. As I identify it, the KTC motif is characterized by three defining features, whether it appears in works of fantasy or realism. First, the central protagonist must confront a problem or crisis of systemic importance; how this challenge is resolved will affect an entire school, community, or even—in works of fantasy—the fate of entire worlds. Second, stories that feature the KTC motif generally de-emphasize the importance of adult mentors in preparing young people for, and guiding them through, these challenges. Third, the KTC motif enshrines a particular notion of the ‘authentic self’ as the source of personal power and agency: victory is assured only insofar as the central protagonist becomes and remains ‘true’ to himself or herself. Finally, I ask what the vision of power and agency implicit in the KTC motif could mean for young people as they move toward becoming adult actors in a complex and globalizing world. In Chapter Three, I examine questions that enable me to access the model of social change, comparing these accounts to a narrative of social change in the broader world. I also assess how adolescents are liable to view and interpret their own experiences through a global v lens as prodigious consumers of narratives produced in a global culture. This chapter assesses the extent to which social forms of difference and inequality, such as gender, race, and class, are integrated into presentation of the problem and strategy/solution within the KTC motif, and how social changes are encouraged by young protagonists. In the KTC motif, I find that self-actualization brings power—and power from within trumps power from without, at least within cultures based on Western individualism. Exceptions are discussed through the examples of narratives based on Caribbean-Canadian identities (Norbese-Philip) and on indigenous identities. Contemporary school stories that follow the KTC motif continue to have a moralizing or didactic bent, in keeping with a trend in YA literature that underlines the agency of youth protagonists over that of adults. Where the classic school story ultimately affirms the existing order, the KTC motif suggests that the existing power order is corrupt. I suggest that the KTC motif may in part reflect the needs of a post-industrial, knowledge-based economy, in which people are flexible, self-motivated, and willing to believe that whether they succeed or fail depends not on the soundness of institutions, but on the strength of their own unique talents and even their personal 'authenticity.'<br>Résumé : Dans cette thèse, j’explore le modèle de l’enfant qui prend charge "kids-take-charge (KTC)", à travers des récits produits pour des audiences de jeunes adultes, en termes de généalogie de récits scolaires. Le corpus des récits scolaires inclut des travaux en anglais et en français produits comme science-fiction, film ou faits vécus, pour les adolescents et les adultes du Canada, des États-Unis et le Royaume-Uni. Cette thèse identifie les changements historiques et idéologiques qui ont pu causer la naissance de ce modèle. Les récits scolaires ont mené à l’identification de certains modèles distincts d’individualité et "coming into one’s own" qui ont figurés principalement dans les travaux sur et pour les adolescents dans des contextes socioculturels variés. La questionrecherche qui est posée est : pourquoi ce genre d’histoire émerge maintenant, et quel but social peut-il servir ? La question est inspirée par l’impact possible du pouvoir des relations sur la jeunesse dans la société, examiné dans Disturbing the Universe : Power and Repression in Adolescent Literature par Roberta Trites, qui suggère que le pouvoir est partout et la littérature de jeunes adultes parce que le pouvoir est la catégorie clé de l’expérience des adolescents. Cette thèse nous amène aussi au travail des théoriciens comme Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, Beverly Lyon Clark, Henry Giroux, George Herbert Mead et Charles Horton Cooley parmi tant d’autres. Le corpus inclut les travaux suivants : The Lightning Thief, partie de la série Percy Jackson des auteurs américains Rick Riordan; Schooled, de l’auteur canadien Gordon Korman; la série des Harry Potter de JK Rowling; High School Musical, un film qui est apparu sur les écrans de cinéma et qui a été diffusé sur la chaine Disney ; Harriet’s Daughter de M. NourbeSe Philip; et variations des classiques sur les pensionnats et récits scolaires qui ont voyagé dans le temps, comme Louisa May Alcott's Jo's Boys; Thomas Hughes' Tom Brown School Days, LM Montgomery's Anne of vii Green Gables, and Ralph Connor's Glengarry School Days, pour ne nommer que ceux-là. Le chapitre 1 établit les contours du motif "KTC” à travers une variété d’œuvres de fiction contemporaines pour jeunes adultes en contrastant les histoires des changements faits par les jeunes adultes dans ces travaux avec des modèles trouvés dans les classiques récits scolaires britanniques du 19e siècle et dans les premières variations canadiennes et américaines sur le sujet. Le chapitre examine également les types de modèles d’individualité des adolescents et jeunes adultes qui peuvent être liés au motif “KTC”. Au chapitre 2, je soutiens qu’un relativement nouveau concept concernant le pouvoir et l’agence est apparu dans un certain nombre de récits scolaires produits dans les deux dernières décennies. Comme je conceptualise le motive KTC, 3 fonctions bien définies que ce soit dans les ouvres de fantaisie ou le réalisme. Premièrement, le personnage central doit confronter un problème ou une crise d’importance systémique ; comment ce défi est résolu affectera une école entière, une communauté ou même – dans les œuvres de fantaisie – le destin du monde entier. Deuxièmement, les récits qui représentent le concept KTC insistent généralement moins de l’importance de mentors adultes dans la préparation et la supervision des jeunes à affronter ces défis. Troisièmement, le concept KTC conserve la notion particulière du "soi authentique" comme source du pouvoir personnel et agentivité : la victoire est assurée seulement dans la mesure où le protagoniste central devient et demeure "vrai" pour lui et elle-même. Finalement, je demande qu’est-ce que la vision du pouvoir et de l’agentivité du concept du KTC implique pour les jeunes lorsqu’ils deviennent des acteurs adultes dans un monde complexe et globalisé. Au chapitre 3, j’examine les questions qui me permettent d’accéder au modèle du changement social en comparant les explications du changement social dans un monde plus large. J’évalue aussi comment les adolescents sont susceptibles de voir et d’interpréter leur propre expérience à viii travers une lentille globale comme consommateurs prodigieux de récits produits dans une culture mondiale. Ce chapitre évalue la mesure dans laquelle les différentes formes sociales et l’inégalité, comme le sexe, la race et la classe sociale sont intégrés dans la présentation du problème et la stratégie/solution dans le motif KTC et comment les changements sociaux sont encouragés par les jeunes protagonistes. Dans le motif KTC, je constate que le développement personnel apporte le pouvoir – et le pouvoir de l’intérieur est un atout du pouvoir de l’extérieur, au moins dans les cultures basées sur l’individualisme occidental. Les exceptions sont traitées dans les exemples de récits basés sur les identités Cara𝑖𝑖𝑖bes-canadiennes (Norbèse-Philip) et sur les identités indigènes. Les récits scolaires contemporains qui suivent le motif KTC continuent d’avoir un penchant moralisateur ou didactique, conformément à une tendance dans la littérature jeunesse qui souligne l’agentivité des jeunes protagonistes sur celui des adultes. Où l’histoire scolaire classique affirme en fin de compte l’ordre établi, le motif KTC suggère que le pouvoir établi est corrompu. Je suggère que le motif KTC peut en partie refléter les besoins d’une économie post-industrielle basée sur la connaissance dans laquelle les gens sont flexibles, motivés et décidés à croire que s’ils réussissent ou non de dépend pas de la force des institutions, mais de leur force de caractère et même de leur propre "authenticité".

Abstract:
Ce travail analyse le contenu et les transformations du modèle suédois d'Etat-providence à travers l'étude de deux secteurs : les politiques de prise en charge des personnes âgées dépendantes et les politiques de prise en charge des jeunes enfants - soit les politiques de care - de 1930 à 2005. L'objectif a été dans un premier temps d'analyser et d'expliquer la teneur institutionnelle et idéologique spécifique de l'Etat-providence suédois, notamment dans le domaine du care, qui est central au modèle suédois et participe largement de sa spécificité. Pour ce faire, nous avons considéré l'Etat-providence suédois comme un contrat social spécifique entre l'Etat et ses citoyens et regardé comment se sont définies les "frontières" de l'Etat-providence, c'est-à-dire comment se sont peu à peu définis les domaines légitimes et les modalités d'intervention de l'Etat. Le deuxième objectif a été d'analyser les transformations de l'Etat-providence suédois non pas - ou pas seulement - d'un point de vue politico-économique comme cela est généralement le cas dans la plupart des travaux concernant les réformes de l'Etat-providence, mais d'un point de vue plus sociologique, en retraçant les évolutions du rapport entre l'Etat et la société qu'induisent ces transformations. Nous avons alors analysé les réformes successives des deux domaines qui nous intéressent, les logiques qui les ont guidées, les facteurs qui les ont déterminées (notamment idéologiques, économiques et politiques). Nous nous sommes également attachée à saisir l'impact des nouvelles mesures mises en place. C'est à partir de cette analyse des réformes, de leur logique et de leur impact que nous avons pu tester l'hypothèse d'une éventuelle remise en cause de ce contrat social spécifique. Notre analyse des réformes a montré des évolutions contrastées entre les deux domaines : focalisation des ressources sur les plus gros besoins dans le domaine de la prise en charge des personnes âgées et dilution des ressources de façon à couvrir un plus grand nombre d'enfants dans le domaine de la prise en charge des enfants, chacune de ces stratégies ayant posé des problèmes de légitimité spécifiques pour ces politiques. Les résultats de notre travail montrent néanmoins une grande stabilité des principes et des institutions de l'Etat-providence suédois, qui a su susciter auprès de la population suédoise le soutien et les attentes qui participent de la solidité normative mais aussi des capacités d'adaptation du modèle.

Abstract:
The objective of this study is to analyse the impact of the change in the definition of bank capital according to Basel 3. The 2008 financial crisis exposed the flaws in the global regulatory and supervision framework and also showed that Basel 2 could not fully protect against bank failures. In order to address the gaps, loopholes and deficiencies of Basel 2 and to guard against any future crises, the Basel 3 accord was implemented in 2013. The key change introduced by Basel 3 is the requirement that banks hold more capital. However, the Basel 3 accord also changed the definition of bank capital and the definition of risk-weighted assets (RWAs). In comparing Basel 2 with Basel 3, several changes in the definition of capital appear. It is therefore important to analyse the impact of the capital definition change introduced in Basel 3 excluding the changes in the definition of RWAs. The study used a sample of the fifty largest commercial and investment banks by asset size from the USA and the Europe region. The study calculated the Basel 2 Tier 1 capital ratio and Basel 3 Tier 1 capital ratio at the same point in time by only changing the reported capital under Basel 2 and Basel 3 but keeping the RWAs the same at Basel 2 level. This is to isolate the capital definition change and exclude changes to the RWAs definition. The change in the regulatory Tier 1 capital ratio is the estimated impact of the change in the definition of bank capital according to Basel 3. The data sample shows that the banks in the Europe region are larger in size than the USA banks on average. The results show that the change in the Basel 3 capital definition had a positive impact on the European banks' capital ratios and in contrast there was a negative impact on the USA banks' capital ratios. The limitations of the study include the use of a small sample size of fifty banks, the omission of Asian banks from the sample size even though these include some of the largest banks in the world, and the selection of banks with December year ends only. This study contributes to the literature because it is the first study to examine the capital definition change in Basel 3.

Les Soins de Support sont apparus en France dans les années 90. Héritiers du mouvement des Soins Palliatifs et de la médecine des maladies chroniques, ils occupent une place singulière dans les services de cancérologie.

L’enjeu de ce travail est de poser ce constat, d’en analyser les causes puis de proposer des perspectives menant à un positionnement commun dans le paysage médical contemporain.Il s’agira ainsi de démontrer qu’une définition des Soins de Support est souhaitable et qu’un socle de convictions propres la permet. Méthodes : Une revue de littérature par mots clés a été menée afin de décrire l’utilisation de la définition de Soins de Support dans les études les concernant. Des axes récurrents ont, ensuite, été dégagés. Les Soins de Support sont définis en tant qu’amélioration de la qualité de vie, prise en charge des effets secondaires, modèle d’organisation des soins ou bien à partir de la durée de prise en charge. Cette revue de littérature donne lieu à une restitution par thématiques. Un travail de terrain, fondé sur l’observation et des entretiens auprès de 32 professionnels, patients, proches et associations a été réalisé au sein de quatre établissements de soin : l’Institut Curie, l’Institut Curie Saint Cloud, l’Hôpital Kremlin Bicêtre, l’hôpital Henri Mondor. Il a permis de tester les axes issus de la revue de littérature et d’en mettre en lumière de nouveaux. Le temps, les projets, le corps et la notion de collectif se sont révélés au cœur des discours des acteurs des Soins de Support.Ce travail est qualitatif et non représentatif. Analyse et discussion : Un premier temps dévoile les références auxquelles se rattachent les Soins de Support et les tensions qu’elles produisent les unes par rapport aux autres. Les Soins de Support sont partagés entre des philosophies de l’action définissant la maladie comme réduction des capacités, et des philosophies du soin refoulant les notions telles que l’autonomie en étudiant la relation à l’autre. Un second temps permet de condenser en trois axes unanimes le positionnement des Soins de Support. Tout d’abord, les Soins de Support appuient leurs actions sur une compréhension du temps comme épaisseur vécue. Il s’agit d’accompagner le patient dans un cheminement propre, et d’inscrire le temps des horloges, des techniques et de la physiologie dans le temps de celui qui vit l’événement de la maladie. Ensuite, les Soins de Support mettent en œuvre une compréhension du soin en tant qu’acte collectif. L’équipe de soin se constitue avec le malade au cours de sa maladie. Elle comprend des professionnels soignants et non soignants, ainsi que des membres de la société civile. Elle se forme aux grés des besoins et en fonction des enjeux qui jalonnent le parcours du patient. Enfin, les Soins de Support brisent le monopole médical du savoir sur la maladie. Chaque situation exige la construction collective de la compréhension de la maladie. Il s’agit de comprendre la maladie en tant que carrefour des connaissances médicales, techniques, sociales, culturelles, psychologiques, mais aussi comme questionnement existentiel et affectif. La conviction profonde des Soins de Support est que la pluralité des approches et des regards permet par l’échange de tracer avec le patient ses possibilités et de l’y aider<br>Description : Support Cares appeared in France in the 90s. Heirs of Palliative Care Mouvement and chronic diseases medicine take a singular place in cancer departments. Nevertheless, the definition of Support Cares is not harmonized within studies, practices and speeches.The stake in this work is to put this report, to analyze the causes then to propose perspectives leading to a common positioning in the contemporary medical landscape. It will so be a question of demonstrating that a definition of Support Cares is advisable and that a base of appropriate convictions allows it. Methods : A literature review by keywords was led to describe the use of Support Cares definition in the studies concerning them. Then, Recurring axes were cleared. The Support cares are defined as the quality of life improvement, treating the side effects, the care organization model or from the care duration. This literature review gives rise to a return by themes.A field work, based on the observation and interviews with 32 professionals, patients, relatives and associations was conducted within four Care establishments : Curie institute, Saint Cloud Curie Institue, Kremlin Bicêtre Institute, Henri Mondor Hospital. It allowed to test axes stemming from the literature review and to highlight new ones. Time, projects, body and notion of collective proved to be in the heart of the Care Actors speeches.This work is qualitative and not representative.Analysis and discussion : A first time reveals the references with which Support Cares are connected and the tensions they produce in relation to each other. The Support Cares are shared between philosophies of the action defining the disease as reduction of capacities, and Care philosophies repressing notions such as autonomy by studying the relationship. A second time allows to condense in three unanimous axes the Support cares positioning. First of all, Support Cares opress their actions an understanding time as real-life thickness. It is a question of accompanying the patient in a unique path progress, and registering the time of clocks, techniques and physiology in the time of the one who lives the disease event. Then, the Support Cares implement an understanding of the care as a collective act. The Care team establishes with the ill person during his disease. It understands nursing and not nursing professionals, as well as members of the civil society. It forms in the wills of needs and according to the stakes which mark out the route of the patient. Finally, the Support Cares break the knowledge medical monopoly on the disease. Every situation requires the collective construction of the desease understanding. It is a question of understanding the disease as crossroads of medical, technical, social, cultural, pasychological knowledge, but also as existential and emotional questioning.The deep conviction of the Support Cares is that the plurality of the approaches and the looks enable by exchanging to draw with the patient his possibilities and to bring that about

Abstract:
Physical activity has been demonstrated in the literature as an effective way to reduce the risk for development of chronic disease. The Transtheoretical Model (TTM) of behavior change has been developed as a means to predict and facilitate movement into healthier lifestyle behaviors. The model is centered on "stages of change", which describe a continuum of readiness to engage in a health behavior change. Stages contain temporal, qualitative, and quantitative characteristics. This was a six-month study that evaluated the effectiveness of stage-matched (theorized to be pertaining only to the maintenance stage of change) vs. generic (theorized to be pertaining to anyone, regardless of stage) newsletters in assisting subjects to attain the Maintenance stage of change. It also sought to identify further qualitative characteristics that can differentiate between the Action and Maintenance stages of change. Results indicated that monthly stage-matched newsletters were no more effective in helping subjects reaching Maintenance than were the generic newsletters. Exerciser self-schema was related to stages of change, but those relationships differed from baseline to six-month follow-up, indicating development of exerciser self-schema during the study period. Implications of this are discussed. Other concepts discussed included "structure" of change process, in that three new scores were developed and correlated with self-efficacy as well as intercorrelated. Motivation was also evaluated and compared across levels of success at adhering to exercise during a three-month period. Limitations of the study and implications are discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract One of the products included in USER-CHI project is the definition of the charging stations that not only EVs and LEVs require, but also fulfil the needs and expectations of the end users. A qualitative and quantitative user research following the user experience principles have been performed, achieving a deep knowledge of EV drivers’ charging preferences and patterns in order to increase their acceptance. As a result of this research, we have identified basic requirements, increasing value and desirable features that are related to the charging process of an EV, that should be included in a charging station aimed to achieve end users’ expectations. Taking these features, we have defined four different concepts of stations of the future, namely: Intermodal Station, Highway Station, LEV Charger and Urban Station. Concepts are presented in a handbook, following a composition that includes: a colored realistic sketch of the concept, a presentation of its main features organized in three topics (Technologies-Services-Location), and business models related to the concept. These business models were generated with the five demo-cities that are part of the USER-CHI consortium. The business model related to each concept, is a combination of the seven business models defined with the cities -Logistics Hubs, Citizen e-mobility Station, City Centre (Park&amp;Charge), e-Trucks, e-Taxi Stops, Special Events, Mobile Charging Stations. The most relevant features of the resultant business model related to each conceptual station are presented in a new reduced format, including four topics: The Value, The Business, The Market and The Flow.

AbstractDefinitions are key elements of the scientific undertaken (journey) (Swedberg, Eur J Soc Theor 23(3):431–445, 2016). Definition consists of the tracing of a boundary of meaning, in order to distinguish what is inside and outside a specific research field. Definitions change along space and time.In the field of civil society organizations internationally many definitions have been developed world, recently there has been the tendency to gather the studies and research concerning the organized part of Civil Society under the label Third Sector. That seems to be more neutral and more easily recognized worldwide.The chapter is structured as follows. The first section introduces the topic of definition in social sciences. The second section deals with epistemological issues arising when dealing with the tough question of definitions. In the third section we will illustrate and comment on four main approaches to defining this research field. Finally, the fourth and last section presents concluding remarks.

Abstract:
AbstractIncreasing the number of people who complete higher education is among the highest political priorities agreed upon within the European Higher Education Area. The measures to meet the objective can be addressed in secondary education or by reducing the dropout at higher education level. Even if the policy objective is reflected in multiple official documents, little has been done to assess the dropout rate at the national level. The accurate estimation of the dropout phenomenon within tertiary education is more complex than it seems at first glance. It must take into account the very diverse processes that can occur throughout the academic student path. These are defined, regulated, and especially registered differently from one university to another: temporary interruption of studies, transfer between or within universities, pursuing two study programs at the same time or delayed graduation. The current research presented in this article is based on the analysis of available data from the National Student Enrolment Registry (RMUR), and it is part of a larger strategic project carried on by the executive institution in charge (UEFISCDI) together with the Ministry of Education in Romania. In this context, this paper aims to provide a definition of the dropout rate in the Romanian context, envisages the whole range of international approaches analyses the dropout rate through different variables in order to better highlight equity problems that need to be addressed.

It discusses the definition of public place, owner, permitting, highway, causing, driver, driving, and in charge, while also considering the provisions that affect their respective definitions, such as the Road Traffic Act 1988. Additionally, there is no statutory definition for the term vehicle, so the ordinary meaning of a carriage or conveyance applies in correlation with section 185 of the Road Traffic Act 1988. Moreover, the term accident is given an ordinary meaning, but the de minimis principle applies. The chapter considers the definition of road under section 142 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

This chapter documents the Civil Rights Congress and its strategy of legal antifascism. Deploying the United Nations’ definition of genocide, extensive legal organizing, a Marxist orientation to law and racial capitalism, the Congress between 1946 and 1956 enumerated the American dual state as the purveyor of genocide against Black (and other) oppressed domestic groups. The Congress also faced stiff Cold War legal maneuverings by the state which put its own work in constant jeopardy and made Congress lawyers “anti-nation” enemies susceptible to the most egregious dual state practices they sought to challenge.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The results from the first phase of research to quantify the relationship of laboratory fluid flow corrosion test techniques to field applications and the parameters required to effectively apply laboratory data to plant operations are presented. Single phase, aqueous, sweet corrosion of steel in turbulent pipe flow (12.7 and 25.4 mm diameter) is correlated to corrosion in jet impingement and rotating cylinder tests. All tests were simultaneously conducted using the same test fluid (3.0% NaCl + 1000 ppm HCO3− solution at pH 6.0 with 20-30 ppb O2 and 1.3 bar (20 psia) CO2 at 50°C) to minimize environmental variables and allow a realistic comparison of test methods. The results demonstrate that, for this environment, the rotating cylinder electrode corrosion rates do not correlate with pipe flow based on the commonly accepted wall shear stress, while jet impingement corrosion rates at r/ro=3 do correlate. The general equation for flow induced carbon steel corrosion in this environment is: RCOR=aτwb,where "RCOR" is the carbon steel corrosion rate in mm/y and "τw" is the wall shear stress in N/m2. For the environment tested, the coefficient "a" is 12.5 ± 0.5, "b" is 0.10 ± 0.02. The effect of solution chemistry (PCO2, pH, Fe++, HCO3–, Cl–, etc.) is contained in the equation coefficient and exponent, and requires further experimental definition. The fluid parameters (ρ, μ, e, etc.) are included in the wall shear stress. The generally accepted wall shear stress calculation for the rotating cylinder is apparently incorrect when applied to the effect on corrosion. The equation for rotating cylinder wall shear stress that correlates the rotating cylinder corrosion rate with pipe flow corrosion rate is expressed as: τw=1.8×10−8ϖ1.7,where "τw" is the wall shear stress in N/m2 and “ϖ” is the rotation speed in rad/s. The electrochemical impedance data indicate the corrosion of carbon steel is under charge transfer control in this environment and the increase in corrosion rate with shear stress is related to a decrease in charge transfer resistance in all three fluid flow methods.

Abstract:
We focus on explaining image classifiers, taking the work of Mothilal et al. 2021 (MMTS) as our point of departure. We observe that, although MMTS claim to be using the definition of explanation proposed by Halpern 2016, they do not quite do so. Roughly speaking, Halpern’s definition has a necessity clause and a sufficiency clause. MMTS replace the necessity clause by a requirement that, as we show, implies it. Halpern’s definition also allows agents to restrict the set of options considered. While these difference may seem minor, as we show, they can have a nontrivial impact on explanations. We also show that, essentially without change, Halpern’s definition can handle two issues that have proved difficult for other approaches: explanations of absence (when, for example, an image classifier for tumors outputs “no tumor”) and explanations of rare events (such as tumors).

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Corrosion by definition is the gradual destruction of a material, usually metals, by chemical reaction with its environment. During this reaction, metal is dissolved into an electrolyte, and oxygen from the atmosphere is reduced in the solution. Also, contaminants such as H2S, SO2, Cl2 can often accelerate this reaction. In recent years, the miniaturization of electronic components and the elimination of lead-based solder via restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS) have made the corrosion of electronics a matter of increasing concern. Corrosion causes failures in electronics by creating a bridge between the electronic connections, thus destroying the electrical component. Because of these changes to electronics and the adoption of RoHS, there has been a concerted effort to update existing standards and to issue new guidelines. For over 25 years, Standard 74.01 of the International Society of Automation (ISA) has been the definitive source for corrosion guidelines Building off of the ISA standard and RoHS legislation, a recommended procedure is discussed to identify problem areas in paper mill control rooms along with the actions to take to prevent corrosion of critical electrical equipment.

Abstract:
The auto-ignition process plays a major role in the combustion, performance, fuel economy and emission in diesel engines. The auto-ignition quality of different fuels has been rated by its cetane number (CN) determined in the CFR engine, according to ASTM D613. More recently, the Ignition Quality Tester (IQT), a constant volume vessel, has been used to determine the derived cetane number (DCN) to avoid the elaborate, time consuming and costly engine tests, according to ASTM D6890. The ignition delay period in these two standard tests and many investigations has been considered to be the time period between start of injection (SOI) and start of combustion (SOC). The ignition delay (ID) values determined in different investigations can vary due to differences in instrumentation and definitions. This paper examines the different definitions and the parameters that effect ID period. In addition the activation energy dependence on the ID definition is investigated. Furthermore, results of an experimental investigation in a single-cylinder research diesel engine will be presented while the charge density is kept constant during the ID period. The global activation energy is determined and its sensitivity to the charge temperature is examined.

What is regenerative agriculture? Although this concept is frequently used in discussions about food systems transformation, and is starting to attract the attention of corporates and the mainstream, it lacks a formal definition, and what counts as "regenerative" can vary based on the individual asked, or the context. In this explainer, we explore ways of thinking about regenerative agriculture in relation to its various definitions, the stakeholders using the term, its knowledge practices and knowledge base, and how it fits in with wider goals for food system change.

As climate change impacts grow more frequent and intense, it is critical that journalists, in particular, are equipped with the right information when they report. This set of open-access multilingual glossaries aim to bridge the gap between research and the general public by compiling this comprehensive list of most frequently-used terms related to climate change. A majority of these terms have been sourced from the different IPCC reports as well as public platforms such as the BBC and the Climate Reality Project.
