Social housing strategies, financing mechanisms and outcomes
No full textThis review provides a brief update of developments in social housing policies and national strategies in a cross‐section of developed countries since 2007. The countries included in the review are: Austria, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland, Sweden (described collectively as European countries) and the United States of America. The time‐frame for this exercise is largely influenced by timing of the global economic downturn and credit crisis which has, in many countries, prompted fundamental policy shifts. With this in mind, the next part of this introductory chapter highlights some of the key features of the post‐2007 economic context for housing policy.
In selecting countries for inclusion in the review we have aimed to encompass a diversity of national social housing systems in countries with broadly similar economic and social profiles to Australia. Jurisdictions included are those where one or more of the contributing authors have direct knowledge of the social housing system and have recently conducted research on aspects of housing policy.
The review has been commissioned by Housing NSW to provide background information for the ongoing development of The Housing Strategy for New South Wales. It builds on and extends research funded by the City Futures Research Centre (UNSW), the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) and OTB TU Delft which is published in the following conference papers and reports: Lawson, Gilmour and Milligan (2010); Lawson (2009); Lawson and Milligan (2007); Milligan and Lawson (2008); Lawson and Nieboer (2009); Lawson, Berry, Yates and Milligan (2009); Milligan, Gurran, Lawson, Phibbs and Phillips (2009); and Hulse, Milligan and Easthope (2011). The report also draws on the UK Housing Review (Pawson & Wilcox, 2011 and forthcoming 2012) and on recently published material available online compiled by various research and sector organisations in a range of countries.
The report was prepared for Housing NSW, Department of Families and Communities, NSW Government in December 2011 and has been recently release
Hyperbolic Bundles and the Gromov-Lawson-Thurston Conjec-ture.
No full textUm importante problema em aberto em geometria hiperbólica é saber quando um fibrado de discos sobre uma superfície orientável possui métrica completa de curvatura constante negativa. A conjectura Gromov-Lawson-Thurston diz que um fibrado de discos M → S sobre uma superfície fechada conexa orientável S de gênero g ≥ 2 admite tal métrica se, e somente se, ΙeM/XSΙ ≤1. No artigo (ANANIN; CHIOVETTO, 2018), construímos novos exemplos nos quais ΙeM/XSΙ = ⅗, melhorando assim a maior cota superior conhecida anteriormente (ΙeM/XSΙ = ½, devida a Feng Luo (LUO, 1992) e obtida em 1992). Nesta dissertação, apresentamos o artigo (ANANIN; CHIOVETTO, 2018An important open problem in hyperbolic geometry is to decide whether a disc bundle over an orientable surface can be equipped with a complete metric of constant negative curvature. The Gromov-Lawson-Thurston Conjecture says that a disk bundle M → S over a closed orientable surface S of genus g ≥ 2 admits such metric if, and only if, ΙeM/XSΙ ≤ 1. On the article (ANANIN; CHIOVETTO, 2018), we build new bundles M → S satisfying ΙeM/XSΙ = ⅗, thus improving the former maximum known bound ΙeM/XSΙ - ½, due to Feng Luo (LUO, 1992) and obtained in 1992). In this thesis, we present the paper (ANANIN; CHIOVETTO, 2018)
Mining e-mail content for author identification forensics
No full textWe describe an investigation into e-mail content mining for author identification, or authorship attribution, for the purpose of forensic investigation. We focus our discussion on the ability to discriminate between authors for the case of both aggregated e-mail topics as well as across different email topics. An extended set of e-mail document features including structural characteristics and linguistic patterns were derived and, together with a Support Vector Machine learning algorithm, were used for mining the e-mail content. Experiments using a number of e-mail documents generated by different authors on a set of topics gave promising results for both aggregated and multi-topic author categorisation
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Mass transfer from small spheroids suspended in a turbulent fluid
No full textBy coupling direct numerical simulation of homogeneous isotropic turbulence with a localised solution of the convection-diffusion equation, we model the rate of transfer of a solute (mass transfer) from the surface of small, neutrally buoyant, axisymmetric, ellipsoidal particles (spheroids) in dilute suspension within a turbulent fluid at large Péclet number,. We observe that, at, the average transfer rate for prolate spheroids is larger than that of spheres with equivalent surface area, whereas oblate spheroids experience a lower average transfer rate. However, as the Péclet number is increased, oblate spheroids can experience an enhancement in mass transfer relative to spheres near an optimal aspect ratio. Furthermore, we observe that, for spherical particles, the Sherwood number scales approximately as over to, which is below the scaling observed for inertial particles but consistent with available experimental data for tracer-like particles. The discrepancy is attributed to the diffusion-limited temporal response of the concentration boundary layer to turbulent strain fluctuations. A simple model, the quasi-steady flux model, captures both of these phenomena and shows good quantitative agreement with our numerical simulations.</p
