Community Domain Name Policy Development, Alison Norris, Mark Freeman Dec 2006

Community Domain Name Policy Development, Alison Norris, Mark Freeman

Dr Mark Freeman

In August 2006, auDA launched a new domain name space designed specifically for community groups to develop community websites for the benefit of the local community. This paper presents an overview of the scheme, and identifies the changes made to the governing policies since they were initially proposed. A comparison of the proposed and implemented policies is presented, and the potential effects of these changes on a ‘world first’ community website scheme are considered. The changes made by the administrators to the scheme were in the following areas: local focus; sale of geographic .com.au and .net.au domains; management and licensing; …


The Amplitude Equation For Rotating Rayleigh–Bénard Convection, Janet Scheel Dec 2006

The Amplitude Equation For Rotating Rayleigh–Bénard Convection, Janet Scheel

Janet D. Scheel

The amplitude equation for rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection is derived from the Boussinesq equations with the Coriolis force included. The vertical boundary conditions are no-slip, and the lateral boundary conditions are either periodic or rigid. In order to keep track of the mean flow, the full system of equations is considered, instead of a potential formulation. A multiple scales perturbation expansion in the control parameter ϵ is performed, and appropriate solvability conditions are imposed. This leads to the usual amplitude equation at order ϵ3/2, but a new rotation term enters at order ϵ7/4. This rotation term will cause a change of …
