description: The present invention relates to a method of preparing glasses from metal alkoxides. Glasses are crack-free and prepared rapidly in a single step. Optically clear polysiloxane glasses as thin films may be prepared in a matter of minutes. A glow discharge curing method is disclosed which rapidly cures a wide range of condensation polymers, including polyamide resins and polymethylsiloxane glass films. Fracture-free films up to 100 .mu.m have been prepared. The glass films may be used as waveguides and to incorporate metals, donor-acceptor molecules and dyes. Stable, crack-free multiple-layered films may be prepared by the disclosed method which can be modified according to desired properties of the glasses.

description: Optimizing the injection process in particle accelerators is crucial for enhancing beam quality and operational efficiency. This paper presents a framework for utilizing Reinforcement Learning (RL) to optimize the injection process at accelerator facilities. By framing the optimization challenge as an RL problem, we developed an agent capable of dynamically aligning the beam's transverse space with desired targets. Our methodology leverages the Soft Actor-Critic algorithm, enhanced with domain randomization and dense neural networks, to train the agent in simulated environments with varying dynamics promoting it to learn a generalized robust policy. The agent was evaluated in live runs at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY and it has successfully optimized the beam cross-section reaching human operator level but in notably less time. An empirical study further validated the importance of each architecture component in achieving a robust and generalized optimization strategy. The results demonstrate the potential of RL in automating and improving optimization tasks at particle acceleration facilities.

description: A method of producing high temperature parts by way of relatively low temperature sintering is disclosed. A powder is produced, for example by spray drying a slurry, in which particles of a high temperature material such as a ceramic are partially coated with a low temperature material such as a polymer. The powder is subjected to selective laser sintering, or another heat-based layerwise additive process, to form a green part where the ceramic particles are bound by the polymer. The green part is permeated with a cementing agent having high temperature properties when cured; the cementing agent binds the exposed ceramic surfaces in the green part. The polymer is then removed, leaving the high temperature part. Additional cementing agent, or another high temperature material, may then be added to the part after removal of the polymer.
Modelling of Flexibility-Centric Energy Systems: Operation, Planning and Policymaking
Creators: name: Schledorn, Amos
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The climate crisis, caused by air pollution through fossil fuel combustion, is an existential threat to billions of people. The global energy sector is responsible for a substantial share of this pollution, making its decarbonisation essential in stopping the climate crisis.

Decarbonised energy systems are supplied by renewable energy sources, which are largely variable and uncertain. To maintain the balance of demand and supply in these systems, flexibility across time, space and sectors must be utilised.

Such flexibility must be adequately represented in all stages of energy system analysis. Thus, this dissertation addresses the mathematical modelling and optimisation of flexibility-centric energy systems across their operation, planning and policymaking. This is done across different geographical scopes ranging from small-scale to large-scale studies.

Residential energy system operation is addressed in introducing a novel home energy management system model that optimises the operation of home battery systems under uncertain electric load. It allows smart home residents to make a trade-off between cost and emission minimisation without expressing their preferences a-priori. District heating systems constitute a substantial source of energy flexibility. I propose an optimisation model for stochastic block bidding for combined heat-and power generation. Through that model, district heating systems can participate in electricity markets more efficiently.

Flexibility from energy end-use must also be considered in the planning stage. Yet, the existing body of research does not account for end-user characteristics in modelling demand response. Hence, Frigg, a modelling approach for integrating pricebased, non-linear demand response models into energy system planning, is introduced. This approach allows for better representation of end-user flexibility in energy system planning. It is applied in a case study on flexibility from electrified heating in a future Danish electricity system. Study results suggest both heat storage and demand response yield substantial cost savings.Finally, ongoing research on cross-border energy flexibility is presented. Here, Ukrainian hydrogen exports to the EU are analysed. Main questions regard the competitiveness of such hydrogen exports in terms of their costs, as well as the impact of hydrogen exports on Ukrainian post-war energy system recovery and decarbonisation. Preliminary results suggest hydrogen exports to significantly impact the Ukrainian energy system, depending on their volume.

description:  The present invention involves a novel tripyrrole dimethine-derived "expanded porphyrin" (texaphyrin), the synthesis of such compounds, their analogs or derivatives and their uses. These expanded porphyrin-like macrocycles are efficient chelators of divalent and trivalent metal ions. Metal complexes of these compounds are active as photosensitizers for the generation of singlet oxygen and thus potentially for inactivation or destruction of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1), mononuclear or other cells infected with such virus and tumor cells as well. A variety of texaphyrin derivatives have been produced and many more are readily obtainable. Various metal (e.g., transition, main group, and lanthanide) complexes with the texaphyrin and texaphyrin derivatives of the present invention have unusual water solubility and stability which render them particularly useful. These metallotexaphyrin complexes have optical properties making them unique as compared to existing porphyrin-like or other macrocycles. For example, they absorb light strongly in a physiologically important region (i.e. 690-880 nm). These complexes also form long-lived triplet states in high yield and act as efficient photosensitizers for the formation of singlet oxygen. These properties, coupled with their high chemical stability and appreciable solubility in polar media such as water, add to their usefulness.

description: We consider a dark photon model in which the dark U(1) gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken by a vacuum expectation value of a new scalar boson. We focus on the ForwArd Search ExpeRiment (FASER) and calculate its sensitivity to the dark photon produced from the off-shell decay of the new scalar boson. It is found that the off-shell production extends the sensitivity region beyond the kinematical threshold of the on-shell decay of the scalar boson, and that the sensitivity region can be spanned to unexplored region. We also show the parameter space in which perturbative calculation is valid for the unitarity of an S matrix.

title: A Review of Economic Policies to Reduce and Prevent Child Maltreatment and Other Adverse Childhood Experiences
Creators: name: Farmer, Kaila
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2022

description: Economic policies that influence rates of child maltreatment and other ACEs are potential macro-level interventions that can support safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments, a core component of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s Essentials for Childhood Framework. Macro-level interventions have the potential to reach many more families affected by child maltreatment and ACEs in comparison to community or interpersonal-level interventions alone. While recent research points towards promising federal and state-level economic interventions that can improve population health and promote resiliency in families, there is a lack of reviews that evaluate some of the larger economic policies and their impact on ACEs and child maltreatment rates. The purpose of this review is to evaluate and discuss potential policy levers, both at the federal and state level, that have the potential to reduce ACEs and child maltreatment by providing increased economic support for families.

description: Deep learning (DL) techniques have been widely used in prestack three-parameter inversion to address its ill-posed problems. Among these DL techniques, Multi-task learning (MTL) methods can simultaneously train multiple tasks, thereby enhancing model generalization and predictive performance. However, existing MTL methods typically adopt heuristic or non-heuristic approaches to jointly update the gradient of each task, leading to gradient conflicts between different tasks and reducing inversion accuracy. To address this issue, we propose a semi-supervised temporal convolutional network (STCN) based on Nash equilibrium (Nash-MTL-STCN). Firstly, temporal convolutional networks (TCN) with non-causal convolution and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used as multi-task layers to extract the shared features from partial angle stack seismic data, with CNNs serving as the single-task layer. Subsequently, the feature mechanism is utilized to extract shared features in the multi-task layer through hierarchical processing, and the gradient combination of these shared features is treated as a Nash game for strategy optimization and joint updates. Ultimately, the overall utility of the three-parameter is maximized, and gradient conflicts are alleviated. In addition, to enhance the network's generalization and stability, we have incorporated geophysical forward modeling and low-frequency models into the network. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method overcomes the gradient conflict issue of the conventional MTL methods with constant weights (CW) and achieves higher precision than four widely used non-heuristic MTL methods. Further field data experiments also validate the method's effectiveness.

title: “a Doula Is Not a Visitor...a Birth Doula Is an Essential Part of the Birth Team”: Interprofessional Dynamics among Doulas, Doctors, and Nurses
Creators: name: Williamson, Kaniya
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2022

description: Introduction: Studies have shown that poor birth outcomes are more prevalent among Black birthing people and their babies. Evidence shows that doula care, during labor and delivery, improves maternal and child health outcomes. However there are varying attitudes among doctors and nurses towards doulas regarding taking a collaborative approach with birthing people in labor. Conflict and tension due to doulas may occur in some intrapartum settings in the United States, however this capstone examines these attitudes within the state of Georgia. 
Methods: Between November 2020 and January 2021, 17 surveys and in-depth interviews were conducted with doulas in Georgia as part of the community-based participatory Georgia Doula Study, co-led by Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Coalition of Georgia and academic researchers. The objective of this sub-study was to describe the interprofessional challenges and facilitators of providing doula care in healthcare settings in Georgia.
Results: Doula participants were diverse in age (41% 25-35, 35% 36-45, and 24% 46+) and race/ethnicity (53% white, 41% Black, 6% Latinx). About half (45%) of the participants had a negative encounter with doctors and/or nurses, yet the respondents described positive benefits of when doulas, doctors, and nurses work together. The main themes found were: 1) interprofessional dynamics are unique to each doula and medical care team; 2) doulas are and should be treated as important members of the birth team; and 3) partnerships between doulas and medical/midwifery providers are mutually beneficial but require bidirectional learning and respect. 
Conclusion: More research is needed about how doulas, doctors, and nurses can effectively collaborate on the birthing team. It is important to understand that doulas have a specific scope of work and are not meant to overstep into medical care, but they are an essential member of the birthing team providing support to the birthing person. Education for doctors and nurses on the role of doulas and their scope of work is crucial to improve interprofessional dynamics and optimize birth outcomes. To improve maternal and child health especially amongst low-income Black birthing people in Georgia, doula care plays a vital role. Effective integration of doula care—particularly for Black communities in relatively high-mortality regions like the Southeast—has the potential to saves lives, improve equity, and empower birthing people.

description: We show how many-body effects associated with background spin dynamics control the high-harmonic generation (HHG) in Mott insulators by analyzing the two-leg ladder Hubbard model. Spin dynamics activated by the interchain hopping $t_y$ drastically modifies the HHG features. When two chains are decoupled ($t_y=0$), HHG originates from the dynamics of coherent doublon-holon pairs because of spin-charge separation. With increasing $t_y$, the doublon-holon pairs lose their coherence due to their interchain hopping and resultant spin-strings. Furthermore, the HHG signal from spin-polarons -- charges dressed by spin clouds -- leads to an additional plateau in the HHG spectrum. For large $t_y$, we identify unconventional HHG processes involving $three$ elementary excitations -- two polarons and one magnon. Our results demonstrate the nontrivial nature of HHG in strongly correlated systems, and its qualitative differences to conventional semiconductors.

description: Vaccines are by far the most significant achievement in public health over the last century, saving millions of lives. Vaccination provides immunity as well as protection against certain infectious diseases, and the majority of vaccines contain a weakened version of a disease-causing microorganism. But why do people continue to be skeptical of vaccines and what they can do to improve their health? Vaccines, in general, can evoke strong biological, cultural, social, and political reactions all over the world, not just in the United States.
Vaccine history is extremely complex, and it is still ongoing today as new diseases emerge. The anti-vaccine movement has existed since the development of vaccines by Edward Jenner in 1796. It is critical to understand the past and continue building on what we know today through new vaccine research & technology. Diseases today are far more complex than in the past, but advances in technology have enabled us to combat diseases in ways we could never have imagined. The war on diseases is never-ending and will continue as long as humans exist. But why are people becoming more hesitant to get vaccinated than ever before, or refusing to get vaccinated at all?
Today, the ongoing pandemic and the new COVID-19 vaccine are the main topics on which vaccines are being discussed in major news outlets. Many people have turned to the vaccine to protect themselves from the virus, but many are still skeptical that the vaccine is safe or effective. This has pushed vaccine hesitancy to the forefront of the pandemic, and it has become a hot topic not only in the United States but in countries all over the world.

Thus, they are useful for inactivation or destruction of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1), mononuclear or other cells infected with such virus as well as tumor cells. They are water soluble, yet they retain sufficient lipophilicity so as to have greater affinity for lipid rich areas such as atheroma and tumors. They may be used for magnetic resonance imaging followed by photodynamic tumor therapy in the treatment of atheroma and tumors. These properties, coupled with their high chemical stability and appreciable solubility in water, add to their usefulness.

title: Invasion speed determinacy for wave propagations in partial differential equation models arising from population biology
Creators: name: Huang, Zhe
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2021

description: This thesis aims at developing the study of invasion speed determinacy for wave propagation in partial differential equations arising from population biology. Along this direction, we first investigate a reaction-diffusion-advection equation in a cylindrical domain with a Fisher-KPP type nonlinearity. Using the upper and/or lower solutions method, we obtain sufficient conditions under which the linear or nonlinear selection is realized when the model is prescribed with Neumann boundary conditions and Dirichlet boundary conditions, respectively. To study the invasion speed determinacy of a system, we investigate a reaction-diffusion-advection population model arising in stream ecology. We concentrate on how the spreading speed (the minimal wave speed) is impacted by the Allee effect in the model. Linear and nonlinear selection mechanisms for the spreading speed are first defined, and the determinacy is further established by way of the upper and lower solution method. It is found that the nonlinear determinacy is realized if there exists a lower solution with a faster decay. For a multiple species population system having diffusion, individual species possibly invade into the far end with different spreading speeds. Predicting or determining them (the fast and slow-spreading speeds) becomes challenging. Hence, we first analyze a cooperative Lotka-Volterra system, which admits a single or multiple spreading speeds (co-speed or fast-slow speeds). We successfully derive a necessary and sufficient condition for this particular model to determine whether the system has a single spreading speed or multiple spreading speeds. We define the linear and nonlinear speed selection mechanism for each case and derive new conditions to classify the speed selection. After studying the former three particular models arising from population biology, we further, in the last part, present the speed selection mechanism for an abstract time-periodic monotone semi ow. At the end of this thesis, we present our future work.

description: Machine Learning (ML) models integrated with in-situ sensing offer transformative solutions for defect detection in Additive Manufacturing (AM), but this integration brings critical challenges in safeguarding sensitive data, such as part designs and material compositions. Differential Privacy (DP), which introduces mathematically controlled noise, provides a balance between data utility and privacy. However, black-box Artificial Intelligence (AI) models often obscure how this noise impacts model accuracy, complicating the optimization of privacy-accuracy trade-offs. This study introduces the Differential Privacy-Hyperdimensional Computing (DP-HD) framework, a novel approach combining Explainable AI (XAI) and vector symbolic paradigms to quantify and predict noise effects on accuracy using a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) metric. DP-HD enables precise tuning of DP noise levels, ensuring an optimal balance between privacy and performance. The framework has been validated using real-world AM data, demonstrating its applicability to industrial environments. Experimental results demonstrate DP-HD's capability to achieve state-of-the-art accuracy (94.43%) with robust privacy protections in anomaly detection for AM, even under significant noise conditions. Beyond AM, DP-HD holds substantial promise for broader applications in privacy-sensitive domains such as healthcare, financial services, and government data management, where securing sensitive data while maintaining high ML performance is paramount.

description: A bead having an exterior surface which is at least partially coated with a material that under illumination and in the presence of air is capable of accelerating the oxidation of organic compounds floating on water. The coated bead is water floatable and has an equivalent diameter of less than about 2 mm, preferably on the order of 10-30 microns. These coated beads can be used to accelerate under illumination oxidation of a floating oil film (e.g. from an oil spill) by dispersing the coated beads in the film and allowing them to be exposed to solar illumination and oxygen.

Task-driven single-image super-resolution reconstruction of document scans

description: Super-resolution reconstruction is aimed at generating images of high spatial resolution from low-resolution observations. State-of-the-art super-resolution techniques underpinned with deep learning allow for obtaining results of outstanding visual quality, but it is seldom verified whether they constitute a valuable source for specific computer vision applications. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of employing super-resolution as a preprocessing step to improve optical character recognition from document scans. To achieve that, we propose to train deep networks for single-image super-resolution in a task-driven way to make them better adapted for the purpose of text detection. As problems limited to a specific task are heavily ill-posed, we introduce a multi-task loss function that embraces components related with text detection coupled with those guided by image similarity. The obtained results reported in this paper are encouraging and they constitute an important step towards real-world super-resolution of document images.

Plane-parallel waves as Jacobi-Lie models

description: T-duality and its generalizations are widely recognized either as symmetries or solution-generating techniques in string theory. Recently introduced Jacobi-Lie T-plurality is based on Leibniz algebras whose structure constants ${f_{ab}}^c, {f_c}^{ab}, Z_a, Z^a$ satisfy further conditions. Low dimensional Jacobi-Lie bialgebras were classified a few years ago. We study four- and six-dimensional algebras with structure constants ${f_b}^{ba} = Z^a = 0$ and show that there are several classes consisting of mutually isomorphic algebras.
 Using isomorphisms between Jacobi-Lie bialgebras we investigate three- and four-dimensional sigma models related by Jacobi-Lie T-plurality with and without spectators. In the Double Field Theory formulation constant generalized fluxes $F_A$ are used in the literature to transform dilaton field. We extend the procedure to non-constant fluxes and verify that obtained backgrounds and dilatons solve Supergravity Equations. Most of the resulting backgrounds have vanishing curvature scalars and, as can be seen by finding Brinkmann coordinates, represent plane-parallel waves solving Supergravity Equations.

title: Examining the Association of Intergenerational Relationships and Living Arrangement on Depression Prevalence in Home Health and Hospice Patients Age 65 and Older
Creators: name: Hayde, Lauren
Publisher: name: Georgia State University

description: INTRODUCTION:  Geriatric depression affects millions of aging adults aged 65 and older every year and is not a normal part of aging. Relationship with family members and living arrangements are among independent predictors for geriatric depression (Venkatachalam et al., 2018). Elderly suffering from depression have higher in-patient health care costs than non-depressed elderly patients (Katon, 2003). To improve quality of life among the rapidly expanding aging population and alleviate health care costs through the development of cost-effective prevention methods, further understanding of   predictors for geriatric depression is needed. 
AIM: To examine the effect of living arrangement and intergenerational relationships on depression prevalence among elderly home health and hospice patients. 
METHODS: A cross sectional study was performed using data from the 2007 National Home and Hospice Care Survey. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the association between the independent variables of interest and depression in elderly home health and hospice patients.
RESULTS:  Living with others was determined to be a protective factor against depression in elderly home health and hospice patients. Those who lived alone reported 1.9 times the adjusted odds of having depression than those who lived with others. Participants who had a non-family member caregiver had greater depression prevalence than those who had a family member caregiver. This study did not find that intergenerational relationships were a protective factor against depression in elderly home health and hospice patients. 
DISCUSSION: Due to the increased odds of depression in elderly who live alone versus those who live with others, it may be beneficial to further explore low-cost preventative and treatment measures that involve greater interaction with others such as weekly classes and group events. Additionally, it should be stressed to both health care providers and adults age 65 and older that depression is not a normal part of aging.

description: Being the most commonly known neurodegeneration, Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is annually diagnosed in millions of patients. The present medical scenario still finds the exact diagnosis and classification of AD through neuroimaging data as a challenging task. Traditional CNNs can extract a good amount of low-level information in an image while failing to extract high-level minuscule particles, which is a significant challenge in detecting AD from MRI scans. To overcome this, we propose a novel Granular Feature Integration method to combine information extraction at different scales along with an efficient information flow, enabling the model to capture both broad and fine-grained features simultaneously. We also propose a Bi-Focal Perspective mechanism to highlight the subtle neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques in the MRI scans, ensuring that critical pathological markers are accurately identified. Our model achieved an F1-Score of 99.31%, precision of 99.24%, and recall of 99.51%. These scores prove that our model is significantly better than the state-of-the-art (SOTA) CNNs in existence.
