Dataset for unsteady lift on high-amplitude aerofoils
No full textThis dataset provides the results of the time-resolved force and particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiments for a NACA 0018 aerofoil undergoing symmetric and asymmetric pitching kinematics at Re = 32,000. These experiments are conducted at the water channel facility of UNFoLD laboratory at EPFL. The aerofoil has a chord of c = 0.1 m and a span of 0.6 m. The pitching axis is located at the quarter-chord from the leading-edge. The tested kinematics include the pitching amplitudes of 32 degrees and 64 degrees. The reduced frequency is fixed at k = 0.22. This dataset is used for the following two publications:

Abuse Directed at Teachers: Survey of Scottish School 2022/2023 academic year
No full textThis report is a review of Abuse Directed at Teachers (ADT) occurrence rates within Scotland. It is the first of its kind that specifically looked at only ADT with Scotland and/or the UK. Dividing the entire sample into two smaller data sets, primary or secondary teachers, the data reviews their response to questions relating to ADT victimization by their students and/or the parent/legal guardian of pupils. This report only reflects self-reported, known as direct acts of ADT, occurrence rates and does not reflect any indirect, observed acts of ADT, events. Only a small fraction of the survey questions were addressed within the report and as these questions were a direct reflect of the EIS request for a smaller grouping of results than what the full survey would reflect. The raw data is not included within the DataShare file as it is part of a doctoral program that is expected to conclude in 2024. Survey questions included in this work examine the occurrence rate of direct ADT, most common form of ADT experience by teachers, the work satisfaction levels of victims of ADT, and how victims of ADT interact with pupils that have shown abusive tendencies in the past. The full sample size was broken into the smaller data sets by the grade in school taught by the participants. Each data set has its own statistical analysis and comparison of one to the other is included in the report.README contains three sections: survey methodology, data creation and terms used. Survey methodology is comprised of a description of different sections within the survey, and the dissemination method for the survey. Data creation outlines which questions from the survey this report analyses, the way in which the total sample was broken down into two separate data sets, and the different analysis techniques used to find the statistics within the report. Terms used throughout the report are defined in the final section of this file.

Scottish Young People's Survey Cohort 1989-88, Sweep 1 (SYPS1989)
No full textThis dataset refers to the 3rd SYPS cohort of young people, who completed compulsory schooling (the S4 year stage) in the 1987-88 school year. They were first surveyed (sweep 1) in spring 1989 when most were aged about 16-17: some young people were still at school, while others had entered further education, training or jobs. The survey included questions about family background, experiences of school and subsequent destinations. 77% of the cohort responded to the survey, giving an achieved sample size of 5581. There was a second survey sweep in autumn 1991 at age 18-19
Data from: Virulence is associated with daily rhythms in the within-host replication of the malaria parasite Plasmodium chabaudi
Get PDFMost malaria (Plasmodium spp.) parasite species undergo asexual replication synchronously within the red blood cells of their vertebrate host. Rhythmicity in this intraerythrocytic developmental cycle (IDC) enables parasites to maximise exploitation of the host and align transmission activities with the time of day that mosquito vectors blood feed. The IDC is also responsible for the major pathologies associated with malaria, and plasticity in the parasite’s rhythm can confer tolerance to antimalarial drugs. Both the severity of infection (virulence) and synchrony of the IDC vary across species and between genotypes of Plasmodium, yet this variation is poorly understood. Theory predicts that virulence and IDC synchrony are negatively correlated and we tested this hypothesis using two closely related genotypes of the rodent malaria model Plasmodium chabaudi that differ markedly in virulence. We also test the predictions that in response to perturbations to the timing (phase) of the IDC schedule relative to the phase of host rhythms (misalignment), the virulent parasite genotype recovers the correct phase relationship faster, incurs less fitness losses, and so, hosts benefit less from misalignment when infected with a virulent genotype. Our predictions are partially supported with results suggesting the virulent parasite genotype is less synchronous in some circumstances and recovers faster from misalignment. While hosts were less anaemic when infected by misaligned parasites, the extent of this benefit did not depend on parasite virulence. Overall, our results suggest that interventions to perturb the alignment between the IDC schedule and host rhythms, and increase synchrony between parasites within each IDC, could alleviate disease symptoms. However, virulent parasites, which are better at withstanding conventional antimalarial treatment, would also be intrinsically better able to tolerate such interventions.ReadMe_Owolabi_Vir_2024.docx

MOI - Moi (ISO 369-3: mxn, Glottocode moii1235) segmented files
No full textThis dataset contains segmented audio files from one of the raw recordings in the Moi (ISO 369-3: mxn, Glottocode moii1235) collection. The full collection is available here: https://datashare.ed.ac.uk/handle/10283/8694. These segmented files are designed to facilitate searches for a particular word or construction in the Moi collection. Full information on how to navigate these segmented files using the filenames is given in the Documentation file. The audio files in this dataset come from a recording that was made on 9 January 2020, in Asbaken village (Sorong regency, Southwest Papua province, Indonesia). This dataset relates to the British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship 'Synchronic and diachronic investigations in Raja Ampat-South Halmahera, a little-known subbranch of Austronesian' (PF19\100004); additional fieldwork funds were provided by a Moray Endowment Fund from the University of Edinburgh. Further deposits are available in the related DataShare sub-community (https://datashare.ed.ac.uk/handle/10283/8573)
Rapid Evolution of Colistin Resistance in a Bioreactor Model of Infection of Klebsiella pneumoniae
No full textColistin resistance remains an important antibiotic for the therapeutic management of drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Despite the numerous reports of colistin resistance in clinical strains, it remains unclear exactly when and how different mutational events arise resulting in reduced colistin susceptibility. Using a bioreactor model of infection, we modelled the emergence of colistin resistance in a susceptible isolate of K. pneumoniae. Genotypic, phenotypic and mathematical analyses of the antibiotic challenged and un-challenged population indicates that after an initial decline, the population recovers within 24h due to a small number of “founder cells” which have single point mutations mainly in the regulatory genes encoding crrB and pmrB and whose phenotype exhibits colistin MICs up to 100-fold higher than the parental strain. Our work underlines that development of colistin resistance during treatment of susceptible K. pneumoniae infections is readily achieved having implications for the use of cationic antimicrobial peptides as a monotherapy
Global English-language Corpus of Humanitarian News
No full textA document-feature matrix (DFM) with word frequencies of 1,118,397 news articles that mention the term "humanitarian*" published in English language media between January 1, 2010 and 15 August, 2020. Features in the DFM have not been lowercased, but the following elements have been removed: punctuation, symbols, numbers, separators, commonly used stopwords and words with two or fewer characters. To remove stopwords,Porter's Snowball list of 175 common English-language words was used. The DFM includes 79,229 features.
For each news article in the DFM, the following metadata are included: news organisation where it was published (news_source_name), country of the news organisation in ISO-3 format (country_iso3), continent of the news organisation in ISO-2 format (continent_iso2), reach of the news organisation (media_reach) and publication date in YYYYMMDD format (publication_date).
The file format is RDS, which needs to be read using the R programming language. It includes one single object called humanitarian_dfm, which has been created using R's quanteda package. This object can be easily converted to other formats commonly used for text mining, NLP and computational text analysis using quanteda's "convert" function.A description of the process used to collect data to build this dataset can be found in the same collection as this file (SummaryDataRetrieval.docx). We also provide a codebook for the variables included as metadata (Codebook.docx) and a spreadsheet with additional metadata at the level of each news organisation (FullCorpusMetadata.xlsx)
Shilluk Lexicography With Audio Data (2nd edition)
Get PDFThis archive represents a resource on the lexicon of Shilluk, a Nilo-Saharan language spoken in South Sudan. It includes a table of 2853 lexicographic items, plus 10082 sound clips. The table is included in pdf and MS Word formats; the sound clips are in wav format (recorded with Shure SM10A headset mounted microphone and and Marantz PMD 660/661 solid state recorder, at a sampling frequency of 48kHz and a bit depth of 16). For each entry, we present: (a) the entry form (different for each word class, as explained below); (b) the orthographic representation of the entry form; (c) the paradigm forms and/or example(s); and (d) a description of the meaning. This collection was built up from 2013 onwards. The majority of entries were added between 2015 and 2018, in the context of the project “A descriptive analysis of the Shilluk language”, funded by the Leverhulme Trust (RPG-2015-055), at the end of which the 1st edition was made archived, with 2530 entires. This second edition, which has 323 entries more than the first edition and a wide range of detail-level corrections and improvements, is published after the completion of the project “Suprasegmentals in three West Nilotic languages, again funded by the Leverhulme Trust (RPG-2020-040). A detailed description appears in the introduction to the dataset document.Table in MS Word (docx) and pdf formats, with sound clips (non-compressed wav format).
