Tasks and methodology. This project will provide the link between the thermo- and electro- acoustic version of the laminar dump combustor. The flame will be modelled as a monopole sound source, given by a numerical solution of the G-equation (a nonlinear PDE for the position of the flame front). The coupling between the hydrodynamic and acoustic fields will be simulated using an in-house linearized Navier-Xxxxxx solver. This task will provide important information for ESR 1.1 regarding the properties that the electro-acoustic system needs to have in order to mimic a real flame.

Tasks and methodology. The Contractor shall use a mixed method design in considering adoption disruptions post-Order. Adoptees shall be defined as previously looked after children adopted out of care. Inter-country adoptions and step-parent adoptions are excluded. Breakdown shall be defined as an adopted child who is no longer living with their adoptive parent(s). The child may have returned to care, be living with the adoptive extended family, the birth family, independently, or in some other arrangement. The Contractor shall use the following methodology: · Statistical analysis of the SSDA903 return database to compare placements that have disrupted with those that are continuing ( Phase 1 and 2) · Surveys of adoption managers, adult adoptees, and adoptive parents (Phase 1 and 2) · In-depth case file analysis to identify risks and protective factors in a matched sample of disrupted and continuing adoptions (Phase 1 and 2) · Interviews with adopters, children, agency staff, and other professionals to understand more about the experience and impact of disruption ( Phase 2) Phase 1: Feasibility study The feasibility study has two main aims. First, to ascertain whether it is possible to use the SSDA903 returns to establish overall breakdown rates of different types of Orders. Second, to test in one Local Authority the methodology for in-depth case file analysis, the availability of data on ‘permanent’ xxxxxx care, and the best ways of tracing and contacting adoptive parents, adult adoptees, and children who have experienced an adoption breakdown. (a) creation of A new database to establish breakdown rates The Contractor shall make a request to the Department to access SSDA903 data. This is the best available data to calculate national breakdown rates on Residence Order (ROs), Special Guardianship Orders (SGOs) and long-term xxxxxx care. The Contractor shall create a new SSDA903 subset that only includes children who were long-term fostered (in placements 2 years or more), or where a RO or SGO or Adoption Order were made during a thirteen year period (year ending March 31st 1998-2010). This will demand great care, as a number of codes have changed over the years, particularly placement codes, and a further request for consent will be made to include a LA identifier. From this dataset, the Contractor shall track the stability of ROs, SGOs and long term xxxxxx placements over time, as the ‘new episode’ variable on the 903 returns identifies placement and legal changes. SGOs only beca...

Tasks and methodology. The research shall include a sample of 8 local authorities. The sample shall capture local authorities with a high proportion of academies to compare with those with lower proportions of academies and those which have growing numbers of other types of schools including Free Schools and Teaching Schools, to explore how the role of local authorities is changing in the context of a more diverse school landscape. Consideration in the sample shall also be given to how long individual local authorities have been working in a context in which the majority of schools are academies. Some local authorities took a decision some years ago to move towards multiple secondary academies and shall therefore have had more time to adapt their ways of working. For other local authorities the change is very recent, and it shall be important to capture both ends of this spectrum. Within the sample of eight local authorities there shall also be a spread of local authorities in terms of: · Geography, including rural versus urban · The type of local authority, for example unitary, London Borough, county council · Local authority education performance, in terms of school inspection outcomes, school attainment and school improvement · The political leadership of the local authority The final sample selection shall be agreed with the project steering group. There are five phases of work, each local authority involved shall have a single consistent point of contact with the Contractor and lead researcher throughout their engagement in the research.

Tasks and methodology. 1st phase of training and familiarization - 2nd phase of validation: ESR will proceed first with the mechanical studies of the quadrupole and BPM support. He/she will optimize numerically the mating surfaces of the magnet yoke and collaborate with the mechanical workshop at CERN to produce a working prototype. He/she will then start to define and build the common prototype alignment bench for global alignment of all the components compatible with the CLIC existing module. This should include initially the mechanical support, the wire and optical targets associated to it as well as the motor parts. Ultimately, this prototype bench should take care of precise positioning of components and ancillary systems used during measurements, taking into account the thermal effects and stabilization, which should be simulated accordingly. - 3rd phase of integration, the prototype alignment bench built by ESR will be equipped with the systems needed. A particular attention will be brought to the quadrupole/BPM assembly in this bench in order to minimize the original displacement of the BPM with respect to the magnetic field of the quadrupole. - 4th phase of analysis and preparation of the system for industrialization Results: - M3-1: quadrupole magnets assembly re-engineered / D3-1: quadrupole magnets - M3-2: all technical solutions integrated in the FPAB / D3-2: Final Prototype Alignment Bench (FPAB) Dissemination: - Conferences: EUSPEN, MT, IPAC, LCWS - Outreach activities: University ambassador, school exhibition, CERN visits, researchers nights, PACMAN open day, Women at CERN event Risk assessment: from the scheduling point of view, delays in the development of sensors and components could have an impact on the other technical systems and consequently on the final multidisciplinary prototype alignment bench, but in no circumstances on the individual ESR research, as the different technologies will be validated on smaller dedicated test setup first. Objectives: - To determine the technological barriers that exist for resisting to radiation (could reach kGy) and to stray magnetic fields. - To upgrade or develop sensors with a large bandwidth covering the whole frequency region of interest (0.1-100 Hz) and presenting sufficiently low noise to measure quiet ground motion. The sensors also need to be compact to fit in the crowded space of the prototype alignment bench and light-weight (typically less than a few kg) to avoid disturbing the measured structures. This will b...

Tasks and methodology. 1st phase of training and familiarization - 2nd phase of validation: ESR will simulate the accelerating cavity to understand the transmission of waves generated by an off-axis excitation and compare it with an on-axis excitation. He/she will then propose an excitation mode based in a stretched wire, a laser, or direct transmission through the damping waveguides. After a scientific review, the researcher will design and build the acquisition electronics and software to either install it in the test set-up used by ESR4.1 and/or in a new set-up based on a laser source. - 3rd phase of integration: ESR will integrate (if compatible) the solution in the prototype alignment bench - 4th phase of analysis of measurements and preparation of the system for beam measurements. Results: - M4-4: structure experimental programme proposed / Report on structure experimental programme - M4-5: acquisition electronics and software designed / Acquisition electronics and software Dissemination: - Conferences: IBIC, IPAC, LCWS, LINAC, NI Days - Outreach activities: University ambassador, school exhibition, CERN visits, researchers nights, PACMAN open day, Women at CERN event Planned secondments: NI will host ESR4.2 in its internship program in Debrecen, Hu (3 months). ESR will receive practical training on LabView software, PXI technology, high speed digitizers, timing and syncing modules [M13-M33]. Risk assessment: the excitation mode based in a stretched wire could be hardly detectable, and other solutions will be studied in parallel (laser or direct transmission)
