    The paper presents the Hellenic fulltext database on Librarianship and Information Science E-VIVA (Ellinike Vivliothikonomike Vase), developed by the Library of the University of Cyprus. The objectives of E-VIVA is to identify, gather, organize, digitize and promote the research, conducted in Greece and Cyprus in the scientific fields of Archival, Library and Infor-mation Sciences. Data are provided concerning the cov-erage, the content, the format and the environment of the database as well as the steps that have been fol-lowed for the development. The legal framework related with the copyright issues that are raised is also dis-cussed. Furthermore a comparison is attempted be-tween E-VIVA, eLIS, LISA and LISTA. Finally the next plans of the Library of the University of Cyprus for the project are presented

    CONSTRUCTION EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS FOR ACHIEVING LEVEL 2 AND 3 BIM

    The Architecture Engineering Construction (AEC) Industry is well noted for its fragmented nature, leading to several flaws in communication and information processing, which have led to a proliferation of adversarial relationships amongst project participants, thereby affecting the integrity of design information throughout the project life cycle. Likewise, Construction Education is bedevilled by multitudinous issues due to its practice-based, interdisciplinary nature of the industry, its professional and institutional history, and its evolving context and composition. These challenges have influenced the purpose of construction as well as the requirements or strategies needed to achieve it. The purpose of this paper is to examine the nature of Construction Education and learning requirements for successful training and implementation of Level 2 (with the aid of a process map) and also of Level 3, to meeting the ever-changing nature of the AEC industry. This process map seeks to identify the educational requirements for existing industry practitioners and for fresh graduates entering into the industry. In order to achieve this aim, a case study methodology was adopted using semi-structured interviews with BIM experts in purposively selected organisations in the UK, which were further analysed using single case narrative and cross-case synthesis techniques. The BIM sub-processes at each project phase of the construction process were extracted from the interviews conducted. Then the process map linking all the BIM activities in the project was developed. In conclusion, the process map formalises the knowledge and skills set required to successfully implement Level 2 and 3 BIM, facilitating project collaboration, communication flow and agreement amongst project participants on construction processes throughout the project lifecycle. The finding of this research are highly aligned with the seminal literature which argued that new skills required for the creation and management of a BIM model fall into the three categories of technological tools, organisational processes, and project team roles and responsibilities, and that these three skill sets contribute to the success of the entire BIM project and adoption in any organisation

    Spectral properties from Matsubara Green's function approach - application to molecules

    Get PDF
    We present results for many-body perturbation theory for the one-body Green's function at finite temperatures using the Matsubara formalism. Our method relies on the accurate representation of the single-particle states in standard Gaussian basis sets, allowing to efficiently compute, among other observables, quasiparticle energies and Dyson orbitals of atoms and molecules. In particular, we challenge the second-order treatment of the Coulomb interaction by benchmarking its accuracy for a well-established test set of small molecules, which includes also systems where the usual Hartree-Fock treatment encounters difficulties. We discuss different schemes how to extract quasiparticle properties and assess their range of applicability. With an accurate solution and compact representation, our method is an ideal starting point to study electron dynamics in time-resolved experiments by the propagation of the Kadanoff-Baym equations.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figure

    锗磷酸盐作为锗酸盐和磷酸盐研究方向的交叉,是一个新兴的研究领域,与其他金属磷酸盐相比数量有限。然而,在这些数量有限的锗磷酸盐化合物中却发现了诸多有趣的结构化学。比如,以GeO6作为“粘结剂”,使结构从二维磷酸盐到三维锗磷酸盐的结构自组装现象;具有沸石分子筛结构基元的锌锗磷酸盐(DABCO)•ZnGe(HPO4)3;在锗磷酸盐中引入F–离子使结构从高维到低维的结构裁剪现象等。同时锗磷酸盐也具有许多优异的物理化学性能,比如NASICON结构化合物MⅠGe(PO4)3(MⅠ=Na,K,Ag)被广泛运用于快离子导体材料;具有KTiOPO4结构的Rb2(Ge0.35Ti1.65)O2(PO4...As the intersection of germanate and phosphate, germanophosphates is an emerging field compared with other metal phosphates. However, a number of interesting structural chemistry has been found in such a limited number of germanophosphates, for instance, structural assembly from two dimensional layer structure to three dimensional network structure via the addition of germanium to the reaction sys...学位:工学硕士院系专业:材料学院_工程硕士(材料工程)学号:2072014115009
