1997 Northern Territory Very Very Very Remote Allied Health Professionals Workshop : Mandorah, May 12-16, 1997
No full textThis is the 6th Very Very Very Remote Allied Health Professional (VVV Remote AHP) Workshop to be held in the NT. This gathering of like minded AHPs working in remote Aboriginal communities provides a welcome chance to discuss issues of common concern and to hear from people with innovative ideas in the work area
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Proceedings of the 1993 Very Very Very Remote Allied Health Professionals Conference : Alice Springs, Feb 1-5, 1993.
No full textThese are the proceedings of the SECOND Annual Conference of the Very, Very Very Remote Allied Health Professionals Group.They have been written in full, to provide a resource for those Very, Very, Very Remote Allied Health professionals who were unable to attend and for those who will be working in the field in the future.
This group was previously called the NT Rural Allied Health Professional Group. It was during this conference that we realised our name did not truly represent our group and our issues. Firstly, we are not limited to the N.T. Secondly, the term Rural and Remote (as used nationally) barely begins to define our work area or the issues we must deal with. We work in Remote Aboriginal Communities of Australia in areas that are geographically and culturally isolated and marginalised. Our work is highly unique, challenging and difficult. We therefore felt that we could only be defined as Very, Very, Very.Remote Allied Health Professionals

No full textResearch Background
Professor of Creative Writing, Jen Webb (UCan), refers to prose poetry as, among other things, an acting of ‘bearing witness’ (2012, 8). As she and other scholar-writers suggest, the prose poem has a particular facility for articulating the confrontation between the shock of materiality and the sensitivity of imaginative apprehension that characterises my aims. The underlying question of this seemingly small piece of work is, how can we express the unrepentant traces of horror left by loss.
Research Contribution.
The claims of this work lie in the realm of engagement with the elusivity and viscera of being, and the interplay between them. This prose poem extends my track record in the field of the prose poem. In part, it reflects on personal grief after a death, a memory triggered by the shock of bush and wildlife destruction at the time of the 2019 national bushfire disaster.
Research Significance
The piece was written in response to a call for contributions to the literary journal Not Very Quiet and published in March 2020. In this publication context, it speaks to the conversation that the contributors and editors about what writing can do to express suffering and hope for change. Its significance also lies in its extension of my own research theory practice as a writer-scholar as a performative investigation of prose poetry as an highly particularised form of engagement with the elusivity and viscera of being.No Full Tex
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Very high cycle fatigue of copper: Evolution, morphology and locations of surface slip markings
Get PDFThe surfaces of commercially pure polycrystalline copper specimens subjected to interrupted 20 kHz fatigue tests in the very high cycle fatigue regime were investigated. The stress amplitude needed to form the early slip markings was found twice lower than the stress amplitude required to fracture which confirmed the results obtained by Stanzl-Tschegg et al. (2007). Three types of slip markings were classified according to their morphology and their location in the polycrystalline material. They are compared to slip markings observed during fatigue tests at frequencies lower than 100 Hz and numbers of cycles lower than 107. For 20 kHz fatigue tests, stress amplitudes ranging from 45 MPa to 65 MPa produce straight and long early persistent slip markings located along twin boundaries. Stress amplitudes lower than 45 MPa produce clusters of fine early persistent slip markings mainly located at triple junctions

Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
