Level of curation self-reported by 100 CoreTrustSeal certified repositories (2017-2019)
No full textThis dataset extracts and makes machine-actionable the responses to the "Level of curation performed" component of the CoreTrustSeal application v01 (2017-2019). The author reviewed 100 applications in pdf file format and compiled the responses into one spreadsheet for further analysis. Additionally, the CTS application instructions for v01 were parsed in order to analyze the completed applications and included here in a spreadsheet.Alfred P Sloan FoundationJohnston, Lisa R. (2021).

Sol-gel fabrication of thin-film electrolyte in an oxygen generator, U.S. Patent 7,790,221
No full textAn electrochemical cell that receives an inlet stream of air and produces an outlet stream of a high oxygen concentration of gas. The cell is made up of a plurality of layers and preferably a porous electrolyte comprised of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) that allows only oxygen ions to pass therethrough and which is covered on its sides with electrodes comprised of lanthanum strontium manganate (LSM) which in turn are coated with a layer of platinum to aid in the even distribution of the electrical current. An electrical current is passed through the electrodes to produce a voltage difference therebetween. The layers of YSZ and LSM are formed by a sol-gel process

Spacecraft and interplanetary contributions to the magnetic environment on-board LISA pathfinder

The version of record Armano, Michele, et al. "Spacecraft and interplanetary contributions to the magnetic environment on-board LISA Pathfinder." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 494.2 (2020): 3014-3027. is available online at: https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article-abstract/494/2/3014/5822062?redirectedFrom=fulltextLISA Pathfinder (LPF) has been a space-based mission designed to test new technologies that will be required for a gravitational wave observatory in space. Magnetically driven forces play a key role in the instrument sensitivity in the low-frequency regime (mHz and below), the measurement band of interest for a space-based observatory. The magnetic field can couple to the magnetic susceptibility and remanent magnetic moment from the test masses and disturb them from their geodesic movement. LPF carried on-board a dedicated magnetic measurement subsystem with noise levels of 10 nT Hz-1/2 from 1 Hz down to 1 mHz. In this paper we report on the magnetic measurements throughout LPF operations. We characterize the magnetic environment within the spacecraft, study the time evolution of the magnetic field and its stability down to 20 µHz, where we measure values around 200 nT Hz-1/2¿, and identify two different frequency regimes, one related to the interplanetary magnetic field and the other to the magnetic field originating inside the spacecraft. Finally, we characterize the non-stationary component of the fluctuations of the magnetic field below the mHz and relate them to the dynamics of the solar wind.This work has been made possible by the LISA Pathfindermission, which is part of the space-science program ofthe European Space Agency.

Network rebuilding after disaster: a communication theory of transitional space
No full textThis dissertation develops a communication theory of transitional space. The focus of this theory is on how business leaders use communication to rebuild interorganizational networks following a large-scale disruption. The premise of a communication theory of transitional space is that a large-scale disruption creates a space in which conditions are neither what they were before the disruption nor where they need to be in order for business to resume with a sense of normalcy. The way business leaders communicate in this space leads to the creation of transitional networks, or networks that enable business leaders to navigate this space. Propositions are tested in the field and with an online survey of New Orleans’ business and organizational leaders whose businesses and professional networks, and physical environments, were affected by Hurricane Katrina. The dissertation begins by establishing crisis as a context for transitional space. Next, an examination of social network theory and constitutive communication using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) provide the theoretical framework for the study. Data were analyzed using a combination of grounded theory and social network analysis. Patterns of communication and social structure emerged that reflect a two-stage transitional space, which is marked by an altered macro-structure and dysfunctional communication infrastructure. Resource exchange and reconnecting with previous network members drives initial communication in a transitional space. This communication is facilitated by an alternative communication infrastructure developed by business leaders through the use of ICTs. Findings from this study further understanding of the lifecycle of networks by providing a longitudinal view of network development, as well as further network research in areas such as disaster recovery and organizational crisis. Theoretical implications include an emphasis on the importance of drawing a distinction between interaction and communication in social networks, as well as a theoretical context for the interplay of communication and structure following a disaster. The importance of ICTs in repairing communication infrastructures, as well as the importance of “helping” organizations in facilitating trust and collective action, both have theoretical and applied implications for social networks and disaster recovery.Ph.D.Includes abstractVitaIncludes bibliographical referencesby Lisa Volk Chewnin
