Intermediate phase retention during the solid state synthesis of complex materials is a widespread problem that increases energy consumption, is detrimental to properties and has often proven intractable. We have developed a method for synthesising layered carbide ceramics by direct insertion of atoms into suitably engineered solid precursors, assisted by in situ neutron diffraction monitoring. This project will discover the underlying atom-scale mechanism and develop systematic crystallographic methods for engineering solid precursors in layered oxides, nitrides and additional carbides. It will enable the ready synthesis of a range of strategic materials of interest in manufacturing, conventional and renewable power generation.

To remain efficient in real-world decisions, people must dynamically monitor and adjust their cognitive processes. Previous research on human dynamics has focused on internal fluctuations, without regard to environmental causes. We aim for a new dynamic research paradigm for psychology, using standard paradigms in which task parameters are dynamically manipulated. Our direct induction of changes in cognitive processes allows for the study of cognitive dynamics and individual differences in cognitive dynamics. Our research also constructs a new type of experimental psychology paradigm: dynamic designs are common, and dynamic analyses are becoming common, but the two are never brought together, even though their combination is natural.

Complex dynamic systems are an inescapable feature of the world we live in. Modelling, analysing and optimizing complex behaviour is crucial for environment, process industry, biomedical, energy distribution, transportation and other applications. The Centre for Complex Dynamic Systems and Control will become an international authority in the analysis, design and optimization of complex dynamic systems, pursuing both outstanding fundamental and cutting edge applied research outcomes. These outcomes will be of specific benefit to partner organizations including minerals, process, metal forming, and automotive industries.

The Centre will create a multidisciplinary research team focusing on the molecular mechanisms that drive the specification and differentiation of male germ cells. This research will improve our fundamental understanding of how complex regulatory networks control the expression of a complex phenotype, the spermatozoon. It will also create a platform of knowledge from which we can stimulate the growth of the Australian Biotechnology industry, the protection of the Australian Environment and the well-being of the Australian people. Key issues for this Centre include testicular cancer, male infertility, contraception, pest animal control, environmental impacts on human health and gene pharming.

Absolute identification has fascinated researchers for over 50 years, because of the theoretically challenging and counter-intuitive phenomena that are regularly observed. Recent developments have stressed differences between relative (short-term) and absolute (long-term) processes. We have developed the first model integrating both approaches in a principled manner. Our work has suggested interesting avenues for further experimentation and theoretical development, which we explore here. We propose some experiments that test the model, and others that test general classes of models. We also propose extensions of theory and experiments into fields related to absolute identification (ie, categorisation, confidence, magnitude production).

Researchers examine important turning points over Platonism's history, and identify factors that best equipped it to survive various social and intellectual challenges that it faced, both internal and external. This was antiquity's most enduring philosophy, taught at some location for nearly a millennium, sometimes offering the only available higher education in the Greek tradition. It survived through subtle changes in ideology and doctrine, choosing new allies, and adapting to students' needs. The project will produce history concentrating on challenges and responses, highlighting the versatility of a successful movement, and will examine the developing role of one Platonic dialogue as a basis for ideology.

This research program will combine basic fundamental and applied research to develop high performance controllers for ultra-fast nanoscale imaging and manipulation systems with ultra-high resolutions. The ability to control matter with sub-nanometer precision is crucial to future progress in nanotechnology. The fundamental focus in this research program will be to develop new and innovative controller design methodologies to address open problems in this field. The research will result in ultra-fast atomic force microscopes capable of generating high-resolution real-time 3D videos, and extremely fast and highly-accurate automated nanoscale automation systems.

ABS Census data is disseminated according to an administratively-based geography which may not reflect economic behaviour (eg, local labour markets). Subsequent socio-economic analysis may then be misleading due to incorrect spatial aggregation. This Project creates a new spatial unit (Commuting Area) based on commuting patterns to address these issues and provides a robust geography to conduct spatial research on nationally significant socio-economic issues. The outcomes will include various (occupation-based) geographies, new maps (shape files), revised Census-based datasets and case study analysis of the evolving spatial imbalance between housing and jobs using the new geographies. The Project is highly relevant for regional policy.
