description: Current research on qualitative spatial representation and reasoning mainly focuses on one single aspect of space. In real world applications, however, multiple spatial aspects are often involved simultaneously. This paper investigates problems arising in reasoning with combined topological and directional information. We use the RCC8 algebra and the Rectangle Algebra (RA) for expressing topological and directional information respectively. We give examples to show that the bipath-consistency algorithm BIPATH is incomplete for solving even basic RCC8 and RA constraints. If topological constraints are taken from some maximal tractable subclasses of RCC8, and directional constraints are taken from a subalgebra, termed DIR49, of RA, then we show that BIPATH is able to separate topological constraints from directional ones. This means, given a set of hybrid topological and directional constraints from the above subclasses of RCC8 and RA, we can transfer the joint satisfaction problem in polynomial time to two independent satisfaction problems in RCC8 and RA. For general RA constraints, we give a method to compute solutions that satisfy all topological constraints and approximately satisfy each RA constraint to any prescribed precision.

description: Gasturbinen und Flugtriebwerke haben im Energie- und Mobilitätssektor eine große Bedeutung, welche in Zukunft noch weiter zunehmen wird. Um bei dieser Zunahme die Klimaziele einhalten zu können, sind eine weitere Steigerung des Wirkungsgrades sowie eine Senkung der Emissionen unumgänglich. Eine Steigerung des Wirkungsgrades lässt sich unter anderem durch die Erhöhung der Turbineneintrittstemperatur erreichen. Durch fortschrittliche Verbrennungskonzepte können die Stickoxidemissionen reduziert werden. Beide Maßnahmen führen jedoch zu einer deutlichen Zunahme der thermischen Belastung im seitenwandnahen Bereich der Turbine. Dies erfordert eine Intensivierung der Kühlung um ein Versagen der Bauteile auszuschließen. Um die Kühlwirkung ohne den zusätzlichen Einsatz von Kühlluft effizient zu steigern, rückt eine gezielte Nutzung der aus fertigungsbedingten Spalten ausgeblasenen Sperrluft zu Kühlzwecken mehr und mehr in den Fokus der Forschung. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde der fertigungsbedingte Spalt zwischen zwei Schaufelsegmenten, welcher auch als Midpassage-Gap bezeichnet wird, experimentell unter maschinenähnlichen Bedingungen thermisch untersucht. Um das Kühlpotential im kompletten seitenwandnahen Bereich untersuchen zu können, wurde im Rahmen der Arbeit die Weiterentwicklung eines Kalibrierverfahrens für Infrarotaufnahmen erforderlich. Damit sind nun verwertbare Messungen auch bei sehr großen Sichtwinkeln von bis zu 75° möglich. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit zeigen, dass die aus besagtem Spalt ausgeblasene Sperrluft das Potential hat, neben dem saugseitigen Bereich der Seitenwand auch den seitenwandnahen Bereich der Schaufelsaugseite zu kühlen. Eine Variation der Spaltgeometrie hebt das Potential aber auch die Grenzen der Kühlwirkung der aus dem Midpassage-Gap ausgeblasenen Sperrluft hervor und gibt einen Einblick in die komplexe Interaktion zwischen Heißgas und Sperrluft. Die Daten stellen eine wertvolle Basis für die Auslegung und Optimierung des Kühlkonzepts zukünftiger Maschinen dar.

Understanding healthcare access experiences of people with mental health and/or substance use-related high use of healthcare
Creators: name: Giesbrecht, Allison (Ally)
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Background: Mental health and/or substance use (MHSU) challenges often reach a point of crisis and result in frequent use of health services with high-costs to the healthcare system. The term “high use of healthcare” (HUH) describes both the frequent and high-cost aspects of this healthcare use. Research in this area has largely been quantitative and has repeatedly identified MHSU challenges and social determinants of health (SDH) as key factors that contribute to HUH. Proposed solutions have frequently been generic and have failed to address MHSU or SDH, rendering them ineffective. This research collaborated directly with people with MHSU HUH to understand lived experiences and perspectives around contexts, challenges, and other factors that relate to MHSU HUH, and identify recommendations for systems change. Methods: This qualitative interview study utilized an interpretive description methodology informed by critical participatory action research values. Three peer-advisors were involved in designing the interview guide. In-depth qualitative semi-structured interviews with adults with MHSU HUH living in British Columbia took place in 2021 and data was analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Sixteen people participated in the study. Data indicated that people with MHSU HUH often found themselves with no place to go where health needs could be met. Experiences of trauma were also found to be widespread and complex as participants noted personal, intergenerational, and vicarious experiences of trauma all impacted MHSU HUH. Participants also described a strong sense of personal responsibility for maintaining their health within their means. To adequately address MHSU HUH, however, it was noted that a service orientation and upstream reconstructions of health and social systems are needed. Significance: The study provides understanding of MHSU HUH as a symptom of multiple interrelated health and social inequities, and distrust held towards health and institutional systems. It supports greater lived experience leadership and inclusion in system design, implementation and delivery, and reconsideration of the biomedical model as the guiding framework for health, in favour of health equity.

description: The scattering of an incident plane wave on two Aharonov-Bohm vortices with opposite fluxes is considered in detail. The presence of the vortices imposes non-trivial boundary conditions for the partial waves on a cut joining the two vortices. These conditions result in an infinite system of equations for scattering amplitudes between incoming and outgoing partial waves, which can be solved numerically. The main focus of the paper is the analytic determination of the scattering amplitude in two limits, the small flux limit and the limit of small vortex separation. In the latter limit the dominant contribution comes from the S-wave amplitude. Calculating it, however, still requires solving an infinite system of equations, which is achieved by the Riemann-Hilbert method. The results agree well with the numerical calculations.

description: We calculate the binding energy, root-mean-square radius and quadrupole deformation parameter for the recent, possibly discovered superheavey element Z=122, using the axially deformed relativistic mean field (RMF) and non-relativistic Skyrme Hartree-Fock (SHF) formalisms. The calculation is extended to include various isotopes of Z=122 element, strarting from A=282 to A=320. We predict highly deformed structures in the ground state for all the isotopes. A shape transition appears at about A=290 from a highly oblate to a large prolate shape, which may be considered as the superdeformed and hyperdeformed structures of Z=122 nucleus in the mean field approaches. The most stable isotope (largest binding energy per nucleon) is found to be $^{302}$122, instead of the experimentally observed $^{292}$122.

Year: 2023

description: Objective—Extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) angioplasty and intracranial thrombectomy may be a safe and efficacious therapeutic option for recanalization of a subset of arterial occlusions termed tandem occlusions of Internal carotid artery and Middle cerebral artery (TIM). Background—Approximately 25% of patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion will have a concomitant ICA occlusion and 50% of patients with an ICA occlusion will have a proximal MCA occlusion. Cervical ICA occlusion with MCA embolic occlusion is associated with a low rate of recanalization and poor outcome after intravenous thrombolysis. We report our experience on acute ischemic stroke patients with TIM occlusion treated with extracranial ICA angioplasty/stenting and intracranial thrombectomy and/or standard intravenous thrombolysis. Design/Methods—A retrospective analysis of 7 patients from our stroke database was done. 6 patients of the 7 patients were treated with extracranial ICA angioplasty and intracranial thrombectomy and/or intravenous thrombolysis. We examined early neurological improvement (defined by a reduction of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) > 8 points). We also evaluated the rate of successful recanalization based on thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) score of 2b or 3. Results—All but one of the 6 treated patients achieved a TICI score of 2b or 3 signifying successful recanalization. In addition, treated patients had an early reduction of their NIHSS by greater than 8 points. The 1 patient who did not to achieve TICI 2b or 3 also failed to show early neurological improvement. Four of the treated patients had a follow up NIHSS at 90 days of 1 or less and mRS at 90 days of 0. Conclusions—In cases of tandem occlusions of ICA and MCA, multimodal therapy consistent of intravenous thrombolysis and/or extracranial ICA stenting and intracranial thrombectomy to achieve recanalization may be a safe and efficacious therapeutic option for recanalization. Further prospective studies are warranted.

description: For the first time in binary mixtures of solid rare gases exciton-impurity luminescence is observed from a xenon-argon system containing argon as impurity. An exciton-impurity emission band is registered for binary clusters with the structure of multilayer icosahedron. The optical transition occurs from an energy level lying very close to the lowest level of volume excitons in bulk xenon samples. The results demonstrate the possibility of probing excitonic levels in noncrystalline condensed media.

Associations of DNA methylation with individual differences in Parkinson's disease susceptibility
Creators: name: Schaffner, Samantha Lynn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder with increasing worldwide prevalence. Although a number of genes and environmental factors influencing PD susceptibility have been identified, the mechanisms underpinning their joint contributions to disease pathogenesis are not fully understood. DNA methylation (DNAm) is an epigenetic mark that is sensitive to genetics and environment and can influence gene transcription. Due to these properties, DNAm has been proposed as a contributor to PD etiology and also as a potential early-stage biomarker. However, the complex interindividual etiology of PD and the inability to its study progression in human brain tissue present challenges in researching the role of DNAm in PD pathogenesis. In this dissertation, I investigated the associations of DNAm with genetic and environmental factors influencing PD susceptibility and with early-stage PD in human populations. Using a human dopaminergic neuron cell line, I found that overexpressing the wild type or A30P mutant form of the SNCA gene induced thousands of site-specific DNAm changes. These DNAm changes were associated with altered DNA hydroxymethylation (DNAhm) and transcription of glutamate signaling genes. Additionally, I investigated the impacts of overexpressing wild type SNCA in mice housed in a standard or enriched environment paradigm by profiling hippocampal DNAm and DNAhm, and integrating these results with previously generated RNA-seq and ChIP-seq (H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac). SNCA overexpression was associated with similar DNAhm and H3K27ac alterations when mice were housed in a standard or enriched environment, and with environment-dependent changes to H3K4 and DNA methylation. In particular, environment prevented some SNCA-induced changes to H3K4me1, a select few of which correlated with gene expression. Finally, I investigated the contributions of sex, genetic background, and pesticide exposure to blood DNAm signatures of early-stage PD in a sample of 218 agricultural workers and their spouses. Differentially methylated regions associated with early-stage PD differed by sex and were influenced by genetic background to a greater degree than pesticide exposure. Altogether, I have enhanced our understanding of the impacts of PD-associated genotypes and environments on the brain and blood epigenome, and laid a foundation for further studies of the role of the epigenome in PD etiology.

description:
Disposable facemasks are a primary tool to prevent the transmission of SARS-COV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, plastic waste generated from their disposal represents a significant environmental problem that can be reduced by maximizing the service life of disposable masks. We evaluated the effect of repeated wearing on the fitted filtration efficiency (FFE) of N95, KF94, KN95, and procedure/surgical masks. The FFEs of masks were compared following extended wearing with and without washing. Results reveal that most disposable facemasks can retain a high level of their baseline FFE after extended wearing, even after 40 h of wearing. Laundering disposable masks degraded FFE in some instances. We conclude that the durability of disposable facemask performance is considerably longer than their intended single use indication, suggesting that reusing disposable masks is a safe means of reducing plastic waste in the environment.

description: We investigate the probability distributions of the recurrence intervals $τ$ between consecutive 1-min returns above a positive threshold $q>0$ or below a negative threshold $q<0$ of two indices and 20 individual stocks in China's stock market. The distributions of recurrence intervals for positive and negative thresholds are symmetric, and display power-law tails tested by three goodness-of-fit measures including the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) statistic, the weighted KS statistic and the Cramér-von Mises criterion. Both long-term and shot-term memory effects are observed in the recurrence intervals for positive and negative thresholds $q$. We further apply the recurrence interval analysis to the risk estimation for the Chinese stock markets based on the probability $W_q(Δ{t},t)$, Value-at-Risk (VaR) analysis and VaR analysis conditioned on preceding recurrence intervals.

description: The global market for real estate is quite large. Over thelast several decades, there has been a notable increase in thisdomain. Consumers and other decision-makers may make betterchoices if an accurate forecast is made. Nonetheless, it remainsdifficult to create a model that can accurately forecast home valuesin such situations. This study paper suggests a house price predictionmodel based on ML that can better guess house prices. A mix of datapre-processing methods and ML algorithms are used at the sametime in the suggested model. Using the Real Estate Dataset to testhow well the proposed model works, the results show that it is muchbetter than the current methods. The research highlights howimportant it is to handle null values and remove outliers from datain order to get better results. This study has attempted to implementvarious machine learning algorithms like XGB, GB, and LGBMalgorithms. The models' performance is evaluated employing metricslike MSE, MAE, Mean, RMSE, and standard deviation on the testdataset. From the experimental outcomes, the XGB model achievedRMSE= 2.45, MSE= 6.03, MAE=1.32, Mean=21.04, and standarddeviation = 3.77. Based on these findings, advocate employing theDL technique for evaluating property values in future study

Gamma-ray Burst 080319B: Evidence for Relativistic Turbulence, Not Internal Shocks

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that the excellent optical and gamma-ray data available for GRB 080319B rule out the internal shock model for the prompt emission. The data instead point to a model in which the observed radiation was produced close to the deceleration radius ($\sim10^{17}$ cm) by a turbulent source with random Lorentz factors $\sim10$ in the comoving frame. The optical radiation was produced by synchrotron emission from relativistic electrons, and the gamma-rays by inverse Compton scattering of the synchrotron photons. The gamma-ray emission originated both in eddies and in an inter-eddy medium, whereas the optical radiation was mostly from the latter. Therefore, the gamma-ray emission was highly variable whereas the optical was much less variable. The model explains all the observed features in the prompt optical and gamma-ray data of GRB 080319B. We are unable to determine with confidence whether the energy of the explosion was carried outward primarily by particles (kinetic energy) or magnetic fields. Consequently, we cannot tell whether the turbulent medium was located in the reverse shock (we can rule out the forward shock) or in a Poynting-dominated jet.

description: The study looked at the role of corporate social responsibility in mediating the link between corporate governance and financial performance. Data obtained from secondary sources were analyzed using the partial least square techniques employing an ex-post facto research approach. The structural equation modeling approach was adopted and the results revealed that corporate social responsibility has an insignificant effect on corporate governance. It also revealed that corporate social responsibility has a significant effect on financial performance. Additionally, the results showed that corporate governance has a significant effect on financial performance. Furthermore, the research found that corporate social responsibility has no role in mediating the relationship between corporate governance and financial performance. Conclusively, the study suggests that corporate social responsibility does not play any role in mediating the link between corporate governance and financial performance. The study suggests that a unified corporate organization be established with the purpose of collecting and compiling corporate governance-related data and developing relevant indices to aid corporate governance investigation in Nigeria. Corporate social responsibility initiatives should be recognized using acceptable methods. Banks should plan carefully in order to fulfill their corporate responsibility obligations, ensuring that their lending and investment strategies do not encourage environmentally perilous business activity or waste pollution. Banks financial performance does not improve solely as a result of corporate governance and corporate social responsibility. There is still a slew of other things to keep an eye on. As a result, if the banks wish to increase their financial performance, other techniques such as sustainability modernization and incessant enhancement must be implemented.

description: Los Principios FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) son directrices diseñadas para mejorar la gestión y el uso de datos científicos, asegurando que sean fáciles de encontrar, accesibles para todos, compatibles con otros datos y reutilizables en diversos contextos. En el ámbito de la Geología y las Ciencias de la Tierra, estos principios deben aplicarse en todas las fases de una investigación científica, desde la recolección de muestras hasta la publicación de los resultados en revistas científicas.

Las redes GNSS son una de las herramientas más poderosas en la observación de los movimientos de la placa. El procesamiento con un software y procedimiento adecuado de los datos RINEX permite la obtención de series temporales de coordenadas a largo plazo con precisiones milimétricas, lo cual permite una monitorización continua de la geodinámica y comportamiento de las ubicaciones donde se encuentran estas estaciones.

Este documento proporciona una guía sobre la gestión de datos GNSS en el marco de los principios FAIR. Se describen los pasos clave para asegurar la trazabilidad, accesibilidad y reutilización de los datos GNSS, incluyendo:

Acceder a nodo de datos GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) o portal de productos.

Seleccionar estaciones GNSS de interés.

Visualizar datos y generar fichero de descargas (ficheros RINEX, series temporales, velocidades).

Citar los datos del proveedor en nuestros artículos.

Exclusive $pp \to pp π^{+}π^{-}$ reaction: from the threshold to LHC
Creators: name: Lebiedowicz, Piotr

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We evaluate differential distributions for the four-body $p p \to p p π^+ π^-$ reaction which constitutes a irreducible background to three-body processes $p p \to p p M$, where $M$ are a broad resonances in the $π^+ π^-$ channel, e.g. $M=σ, ρ^{0}, f_{0}(980), f_{2}(1275), f_{0}(1500)$. We include both double-diffractive contribution (both pomeron and reggeon exchanges) as well as the pion-pion rescattering contribution. The first process dominates at higher energies and small pion-pion invariant masses while the second becomes important at lower energies and higher pion-pion invariant masses. The amplitude(s) is(are) calculated in the Regge approach. We compare our results with measured cross sections for the ISR experiments at CERN. We make predictions for future experiments at PANDA, RHIC, Tevatron and LHC energies. Differential distributions in effective two-pion mass, pion rapidities and transverse momenta of pions are presented. The two-dimensional distribution in $(y_{π^+}, y_{π^-})$ is particularly interesting. The higher the incident energy, the higher preference for the same-hemisphere emission of pions. The processes considered constitute a sizeable contribution to the total nucleon-nucleon cross section as well as to pion inclusive cross section.

description: Current fluctuations can provide additional insight into quantum transport in mesoscopic systems. The present work is carried out for the fluctuation properties of transport through a pair of coupled quantum dots which are connected with ferromagnetic electrodes. Based on an efficient particle-number-resolved master equation approach, we are concerned with not only fluctuations of the total charge and spin currents, but also of each individual spin-dependent component. As a result of competition among the spin polarization, Coulomb interaction, and dot-dot tunnel coupling, rich behaviors are found for the self- and mutual-correlation functions of the spin-dependent currents.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: This publication reports the organization, investment, production, costs, and expenses from 1930 to 1950 on commercial family-operated sheep ranches in the Intermountain region. The western range sheep industry has changed greatly during the 21-year period included in the study. Total sheep numbers declined drastically, a disastrous drought occurred, prices received reached the lowest and highest points in history, experienced herders became scarce, and the Taylor Grazing Act became law. These and other forces are reflected in the costs and returns here reported. The objectives of the study upon which this report is based were to measure and describe the changes in organization of sheep ranches, the costs and returns, ranch size, investment, and other items for the 21-year period.

description: The discoveries of superconductivity in heavily boron-doped diamond, silicon and silicon carbide renewed the interest in the ground states of charge-carrier doped wide-gap semiconductors. Recently, aluminium doping in silicon carbide successfully yielded a metallic phase from which at high aluminium concentrations superconductivity emerges. Here, we present a specific-heat study on superconducting aluminium-doped silicon carbide. We observe a clear jump anomaly at the superconducting transition temperature 1.5 K indicating that aluminium-doped silicon carbide is a bulk superconductor. An analysis of the jump anomaly suggests BCS-like phonon-mediated superconductivity in this system.

description: The objectives of this study were to evaluate physical therapists’ shared-decision-making behaviour in a rehabilitation centre and a private practice, to determine agreement between patients’ preferred levels of involvement in shared-decision-making and therapists’ assumptions of patients’ preferences, and to examine predictors of shared-decision-making behaviour. Thirty initial physical therapy consultations were audio-recorded. Shared-decision-making behaviour was observed using the observing patient involvement (OPTION) instrument. A pre-defined threshold of ≥35/100 points was considered to represent good shared-decision-making behaviour. The Control Preferences Scale was used to measure patients’ preferred levels of involvement in shared-decision-making and therapists’ assumptions. Shared-decision-making behaviour was analysed using descriptive statistics. Predictors of shared-decision-making behaviour were analysed by multiple regression. Shared-decision-making OPTION ratings were a median of 50.5/100 (25th, 75th percentiles 44.0, 66.0). Agreement between patients and physical therapists regarding shared-decision-making was poor (weighted kappa −0.26 (95% confidence interval −0.51 to −0.01). Therapy settings, education and the interaction of education and work experience predicted shared-decision-making behaviour (b = 15.76, p b = 8.05, p b = −0.33, p Shared-decision-making behaviour was good, and predicted by therapy setting, education and the interaction of education with work experience. Because of the limited number of institutions and therapists with MSc or PhD qualifications in this study, further research is required into the relationship between education and communication skills.
