Abstract:

<p>The understanding and practice of leadership in Sub-Saharan Africa, in all spheres, is at the heart beat of this work. Questions and concerns over the quality of leadership in most countries in this particular region are reasons which have led to revisit and investigate the formative training of the current cohort of African leadership with a special focus on the ethical aspect of leadership. It is an assumption, in this thesis, that the contemporary cohort of African leadership received their formative training especially in the 1960s and 1970s and that they were deeply influenced by the b

Abstract:

Particle shape is a parameter which has been largely neglected in the study of sediment transport by wind. Many methods of measuring shape have been published. Those which characterize shape in pebble and sand sized sediments are reviewed here. In order to test the influence of shape on aspects of particle movement and on sediment transport rate, two very differently shaped populations were used, (a) a reasonably equant quartz dune sand and (b) a platy dune sand composed largely of shell fragments. Recommendations are made for reasonably fast and accurate methods of shape measurement, includin

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the use of problem specific information to enhance a local search approach to the irregular shape packing problem. It shows that such information can significantly enhance performance, but that the choice of information and the way it is included are important factors. The problem is that of arranging a given set of simple polygons in a rectangular stock sheet of fixed width so as to minimise length. A survey of the literature reveals room for further research into good generic approaches to the problem. Local search heuristics and Linear programming based local optimi

Abstract:

The search for onshore oil and gas in Britain has had an erratic pattern of historical development but since the discovery of the Wytch Farm field in Dorset, during 1973, the industry has undergone a marked revival. Over the past ten years one of the highest levels of exploration ever experienced has been achieved and this has raised a number of interesting new questions in relation to planning for these developments. One of the main problems is that although the drilling of an exploratory borehole requires planning permission the work itself is only a temporary operation and on the basis of t

The effects of groundgear, sweep length, buoyancy and net taper rate on the drag and shape were examined. Four experiments were then carried out to improve knowledge of the hydrodynamic characteristics of trawls. 1) Groundgear friction drag was measured for

Abstract:

The ATLAS experiment is used to observe the √s=7 TeV proton-proton collisions produced by the LHC at CERN. This gives an unprecedented opportunity to search for physics beyond the Standard Model at hitherto unexplored kinematic regimes. Supersymmetry (SUSY) provides interesting solutions to a variety of theoretical problems that may be encountered in the Standard Model at high energy scales, while providing signatures that may be observed at the LHC. However, in order to produce a search that is sensitive to SUSY it is vital to understand how the physics that has been discovered to date may pr

Abstract:

The experimental evidence of neutrino oscillations clearly showed that the neutrino is a finite-mass particle. Anyway, two big questions concerning the neutrino are still unsolved: its nature (Dirac or Majorana) and the absolute value of its mass. The Double Beta Decay without emission of neutrinos (0nDBD) is at present the most sensitive method to answer the two questions. Bolometers, together with germanium diodes, have provided so far the best results within this kind of research. The choice of the so-called calorimetric approach, where the detector is made of the 0nDBD material, allows the

Does visual search involve a serial inspection of individual display items (Feature Integration Theory) or are there perceptual processes that group and segregate items from one another prior to their consideration as a possible target (Resemblance Theory)? For example, for targets defined by motion and shape, there is strong support for grouping processes (Kingstone & Bischof, 1999). The present study looked for evidence of grouping based on shape symmetry. Participants searched for target shapes among distractors that were mirror images over either the vertical or horizontal axis. The

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>電機工程系<br>107<br>Partial shading is a common and difficult problem to be solved in a photovoltaic (PV) system. Numerous efforts have been introduced to mitigate this problem. Some commonly used approaches are deploying some meta-heuristic (MH) algorithm to track the multiple peak P - V curve of partially shaded PV system. Cuckoo Search (CS) is a new optimization algorithm based on MH approach. It has been used to solve optimization problems in many applications including Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) problem. CS algorithm performs well in tracking the Global Maximum Powe

Many engineering structures are subjected to dynamic excitation, which may lead to undesirable vibrations. The multiple natural frequency bounds in truss optimization problems can improve dynamic behaviour of structures. However, natural frequencies and constraints of the foregoing optimization problems are highly nonlinear, nonconvex and greatly sensitive to shape changes and member sizes of truss structures. Vibration modes and corresponding obtained frequencies may switch during t

Abstract:

Staging a Shared Future argues that theatre provides vital insight into the construction and use of narratives in the Northern Ireland since the 1998 Good Friday Agreement (GFA). This document signaled the end of thirty years of violent conflict between Protestants and Catholics, but could not heal the distrust that remained. Thus, one of the goals of the ongoing peace process has been to replace old sectarian narratives emphasizing differences and grievances between the communities with newer narratives emphasizing similarity and shared purpose. I examine nine plays staged in Belfast since th

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>土木工程系所<br>106<br>Mass optimization on shape and sizing with dynamic constraints are a highly nonlinear problem. Since truss structure mass reducing contradict frequency constraint, multiple natural frequency constraints are difficult for dynamic sensitivity analysis, besides, shape modifications may easily cause vibration modes switch. Thus the choice of the appropriated method is important. Therefore, this paper presents a New Harmony Search (NHS) algorithm, this algorithm is a hybridization of the Improved Harmony Search (IHS) algorithm and the Global-best Harmony Search (GHS

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>資訊工程學系碩博士班<br>101<br>Understanding human action is one of the most important issues of computer vision. In recent years, non-contact human action analysis system using camera has become more and more popular because the price of camera devices are getting lower. In human action analysis systems, facial feature points can tell a lot about the motion of human head such as gazing direction, drowsy and facial expression. In this thesis, a real-time system is proposed to detect the facial feature points and track these points with high accuracy and low computational cost. In the fea

Abstract:

Dissimilarity plays a very important role in object recognition. But, finding perceptual dissimilarity between objects is non-trivial as it is not equivalent to the pixel dissimilarity between the objects (For example, two white noise images appear very similar even when they have different intensity values at every corresponding pixel). However, visual search allows us to reliably measure perceptual dissimilarity between a pair of objects. When the target object is dissimilar to the distracter, visual search becomes easy and it will be difficult otherwise. Even though we can measure perceptua

Abstract:

Throughout the last years technologic improvements have enabled internet users to analyze and retrieve data regarding Internet searches. In several fields of study this data has been used. Some authors have been using search engine query data to forecast economic variables, to detect influenza areas or to demonstrate that it is possible to capture some patterns in stock markets indexes. In this paper one investment strategy is presented using Google Trends’ weekly query data from major global stock market indexes’ constituents. The results suggest that it is indeed possible to achieve higher I
