The case for a reclamation designer of record
Creators: name: Straker, J.
name: McKenna, G.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: The term “engineer of record” (EOR) refers to the engineer responsible for design and construction of a project. Use of an EOR has spread to tailings storage facilities (TSFs). The 2014 failure of the Mount Polley TSF resulted in reviews and adjustment to practice at the site, provincial, national, and international levels. In 2017, the Mining Association of Canada released its third edition of A Guide to the Management of Tailings Facilities, which introduced the concept of designation of EORs for TSFs to verify that facilities have been designed to applicable objectives, guidelines, standards, and legal requirements, and constructed throughout their lifecycles in accordance with the design intent and performance objectives. This adoption of the EOR model for TSFs is due to the occurrence of high-profile/high-consequence TSF failures. However, this application is complex, in that TSFs are often built over many decades, have many phases (e.g., ongoing construction, operations, and closure), and have many opportunities for construction and operations to deviate from design. We argue the need for a parallel adoption of a “reclamation designer of record” (RDOR) for reclamation of mine sites or individual facilities within mine sites. Although reclamation “failure” is not associated with the high-consequence off-site/downstream effects of TSF failures, there are significant public commitments by government and industry related to reclamation, and reclamation liabilities are generally substantial and growing. Reclamation projects share many of the complexities of TSFs, e.g., they are conducted over decades, are first designed during permitting but are completed during operations and closure, and require change-management processes to adjust for operations deviating from designs. The RDOR would be employed or retained by mine operators and have the authority and accountability to design a reclamation project to applicable objectives and requirements, and to provide oversight to ensure that project completion conforms to design intent.
Reproductive Politics, Religion and State Governance in the Philippines

description: Reproductive controversies are never only about reproduction and health. They serve as proxies for more fundamental questions about citizenship, the state, national identity, class and gender. In a post-colonial context such as the Philippines, where a particular historical relationship between the Church and the state has developed, policymaking on reproduction, sexuality and health answers to both development goals and religious norms. At the same time, women's everyday frameworks of (reproductive) meanings are also inextricably bound with state policies and popular culture. My ethnographic study examines the relationship between state governance, religion, reproductive politics, and competing understandings of embodied sexual morality. My study argues that at the heart of the complex politics involved in policymaking on reproductive health in the Philippines is the entanglement of national and religious identities. Reproductive policy then operates as a frame through which the politics of the nation, religion and the state get filtered and played out. Taking the Philippines as a case study, I focus on women's `lived religion' and practices; the local, national and international institutions and actors that exert influence on reproductive policy and popular sentiment; and how these shape women's reproductive practices in the context of everyday life. Through the women's narratives, I show how class, gender and religion work in tension with one another. Lastly, the study also investigates how the historical entanglement between religion and the state configures practices of governance, such as policymaking, in postcolonial contexts.

description: In this paper, we study a system of three evolutionary operator equations involving fractional powers of selfadjoint, monotone, unbounded, linear operators having compact resolvents. This system constitutes a generalized and relaxed version of a phase field system of Cahn--Hilliard type modelling tumor growth that has originally been proposed in Hawkins-Daarud et al. (Int. J. Numer. Math. Biomed. Eng. 28 (2012), 3--24). The original phase field system and certain relaxed versions thereof have been studied in recent papers co-authored by the present authors and E. Rocca. The model consists of a Cahn--Hilliard equation for the tumor cell fraction φ, coupled to a reaction-diffusion equation for a function S representing the nutrient-rich extracellular water volume fraction. Effects due to fluid motion are neglected. Motivated by the possibility that the diffusional regimes governing the evolution of the different constituents of the model may be of different (e.g., fractional) type, the present authors studied in a recent note a generalization of the systems investigated in the abovementioned works. Under rather general assumptions, well-posedness and regularity results have been shown. In particular, by writing the equation governing the evolution of the chemical potential in the form of a general variational inequality, also singular or nonsmooth contributions of logarithmic or of double obstacle type to the energy density could be admitted. In this note, we perform an asymptotic analysis of the governing system as two (small) relaxation parameters approach zero separately and simultaneously. Corresponding well-posedness and regularity results are established for the respective cases; in particular, we give a detailed discussion which assumptions on the admissible nonlinearities have to be postulated in each of the occurring cases.

description: A general method for solving the so-called quantum inverse scattering problem (namely the reconstruction of local quantum (field) operators in term of the quantum monodromy matrix satisfying a Yang-Baxter quadratic algebra governed by an R-matrix) for a large class of lattice quantum integrable models is given. The principal requirement being the initial condition (R(0) = P, the permutation operator) for the quantum R-matrix solving the Yang-Baxter equation, it applies not only to most known integrable fundamental lattice models (such as Heisenberg spin chains) but also to lattice models with arbitrary number of impurities and to the so-called fused lattice models (including integrable higher spin generalizations of Heisenberg chains). Our method is then applied to several important examples like the sl(n) XXZ model, the XYZ spin-1/2 chain and also to the spin-s Heisenberg chains.

description: Teck Resources operates four active coal mines in southeast B.C., and is in the process of closing and reclaiming a fifth. There is a strong emphasis on reclamation in the operations and closure of these mines, to support achievement of Teck’s biodiversity net positive impact and nature-positive commitments. Teck measures progress towards these commitments in part using a Vegetation Quality Assessment framework, which compares area and quality of different ecosystem types in the current and future reclaimed landscape to those of reference (benchmark or pre-mining) conditions. Delineating and identifying ecosystem types in reference conditions is straightforward, and based on a robust knowledge base of ecosystem mapping and classification in B.C., but ecosystem delineation and identification is challenging in the reclaimed landscape, as its materials and ecosystems are not addressed by approaches developed for less disturbed systems. To support this task, Teck has adopted the use of an ecohydrological modelling tool for reclamation planning and implementation. This tool uses input data on climate, topography, and rooting-zone materials of reclaimed sites to estimate edaphic conditions—and probable associated ecosystems—based primarily on soil moisture regime, and secondarily on soil nutrient regime. This approach is first deployed in the planning phase—using designed topography and a database of known properties of surficial materials—to estimate ecosystem occurrence and to develop corresponding revegetation treatments. It is subsequently used after resloping, site preparation, and placement of any additional cover materials to verify as-built conditions and to confirm or adjust the design-level ecosystem estimate. Data collected through Teck’s monitoring programs allows assessment of reclamation performance for different ecosystem types. This paper describes Teck’s current ecohydrological planning, implementation, and monitoring process for reclaimed sites, and suggests next steps for further development of a more comprehensive reclamation framework.

description: Burgers turbulence supported by white-in-time random forcing at low wavenumbers is studied analytically and by computer simulation. It is concluded that the probability density Q of velocity gradient displays four asymptotic regimes at very large Reynolds number: (A) a region of large positive gradient where Q decays rapidly (reduction of gradient by stretching); (B) an intermediate region of negative gradient where Q falls off as the inverse third power of gradient (transient inviscid steepening of negative gradient); (C) an outer power-law region of negative gradient where Q falls off as the reciprocal of gradient (shoulders of mature shocks); (D) a final region of large gradient where Q decays very rapidly (interior of mature shocks). The probability density of velocity difference across an interval r, divided by r, lies on Q throughout regions A and B and into the middle of C, for small enough inertial-range r.

description: Although many studies in Kenya have focused on the elderly windows and their physical health, limited studies have investigated their mental challenges. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between loneliness and depression among the elderly in Kajiado County, Kenya. The study employed correlational research design. The target population was the elderly widows aged 60 years and above. The census method was utilized to obtain the sample size of 162 participants. Loneliness was measured using revised University of California, Los Angelo’s loneliness scale while the Center for epidemiological studies depression scale was employed to measure depression. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Person correlation analysis with SPSS version 23. Results obtained from correlational analysis showed positive correlation between loneliness and depression among the elderly windows in Kajiado West Sub- County (p < 0.05, r = 262). The study recommends to counsellors and psychologists to come up with programmes that help the elderly windows to cope with stress that brings loneliness and depression. There is need of counsellors and psychologists to sensitize the families on the need of helping the elderly people to seek counselling services in order to curb them from experiencing loneliness and depression.

description: The low temperature magnetic properties of pyrochlore compound Dy2Ti2O7 in magnetic fields applied along the [111] direction are reported. Below 1 K, a clear plateau has been observed in the magnetization process in the field range 2~9 kOe, followed by a sharp moment jump at around 10 kOe that corresponds to a breaking of the spin ice state. We found that the plateau state is disordered with the residual entropy of nearly half the value of the zero-field state, whose macroscopic degeneracy comes from a frustration of the spins on the kagome layers perpendicular to the magnetic field.

description: The housing crisis that New York City is facing today needs the attention of all stakeholders in society. Lack of affordable housing is affecting everyone. It has a far reaching impact on every tier of our community, not just the economically distressed. This thesis is a small yet, hopefully, significant effort in understanding how the city can use its stock of underutilized abandoned residential infrastructure to house the homeless better. In places like New York, where real estate prices are skyrocketing and available land is scarce, vacant properties become a liability. It is our responsibility as planners and policy makers to identify underutilized resources and revitalize them so that they are an asset for the community. To arrive at the various proposals and recommendations at the end of this thesis, experts from different organizations and city government agencies have been interviewed. Articles in journals and newspapers were studied to better understand the magnitude and scale of the homelessness issue in New York. In addition, publications on housing policies and historical studies of homelessness have been reviewed in detail. This thesis finds that repurposing abandoned houses can be a successful housing model for the homeless, given certain amendments and changes to the way these structures are governed. The four major recommendations this thesis makes are: stakeholder engagement, gaining community support, flexing existing policy frameworks and enhancing government support systems. Innovative mechanisms are required to fully utilize the potential of these structures and alleviate this issue of homelessness. This will not only increase the options available to city agencies to house the homeless but also revive neighborhoods in which these houses are present.

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: A new method is presented here for evaluating approximately the pulsation modes of relativistic stellar models. This approximation relies on the fact that gravitational radiation influences these modes only on timescales that are much longer than the basic hydrodynamic timescale of the system. This makes it possible to impose the boundary conditions on the gravitational potentials at the surface of the star rather than in the asymptotic wave zone of the gravitational field. This approximation is tested here by predicting the frequencies of the outgoing non-radial hydrodynamic modes of non-rotating stars. The real parts of the frequencies are determined with an accuracy that is better than our knowledge of the exact frequencies (about 0.01%) except in the most relativistic models where it decreases to about 0.1%. The imaginary parts of the frequencies are determined with an accuracy of approximately M/R, where M is the mass and R is the radius of the star in question.

description: The human visual system is an intricate network of brain regions that enables us to recognize the world around us. Despite its abundant lateral and feedback connections, object processing is commonly viewed and studied as a feedforward process. Here, we measure and model the rapid representational dynamics across multiple stages of the human ventral stream using time-resolved brain imaging and deep learning. We observe substantial representational transformations during the first 300 ms of processing within and across ventral-stream regions. Categorical divisions emerge in sequence, cascading forward and in reverse across regions, and Granger causality analysis suggests bidirectional information flow between regions. Finally, recurrent deep neural network models clearly outperform parameter-matched feedforward models in terms of their ability to capture the multi-region cortical dynamics. Targeted virtual cooling experiments on the recurrent deep network models further substantiate the importance of their lateral and top-down connections. These results establish that recurrent models are required to understand information processing in the human ventral stream.

description: To achieve universal quantum computation via general fault-tolerant schemes, stabilizer operations must be supplemented with other non-stabilizer quantum resources. Motivated by this necessity, we develop a resource theory for magic quantum channels to characterize and quantify the quantum "magic" or non-stabilizerness of noisy quantum circuits. For qudit quantum computing with odd dimension $d$, it is known that quantum states with non-negative Wigner function can be efficiently simulated classically. First, inspired by this observation, we introduce a resource theory based on completely positive-Wigner-preserving quantum operations as free operations, and we show that they can be efficiently simulated via a classical algorithm. Second, we introduce two efficiently computable magic measures for quantum channels, called the mana and thauma of a quantum channel. As applications, we show that these measures not only provide fundamental limits on the distillable magic of quantum channels, but they also lead to lower bounds for the task of synthesizing non-Clifford gates. Third, we propose a classical algorithm for simulating noisy quantum circuits, whose sample complexity can be quantified by the mana of a quantum channel. We further show that this algorithm can outperform another approach for simulating noisy quantum circuits, based on channel robustness. Finally, we explore the threshold of non-stabilizerness for basic quantum circuits under depolarizing noise.

description: The off-diagonal disorder caused by random spin orientations in the paramagnetic (PM) state of the double exchange (DE) model is described by using the coherent-potential-approximation (CPA), which is combined with the variational mean-field approach for the Curie temperature (T_C). Our CPA approach is essentially non-local and based on the perturbation theory expansion for the T-matrix with respect to the fluctuations of hoppings from the ''mean values'' specified by matrix elements of the self energy, so that in the first order it becomes identical to the DE theory by de Gennes. The second-order effects, considered in the present work, can be viewed as an extension of this theory. They are not negligible, and lead to a substantial reduction of T_C in the one-orbital case. Even more dramatic changes are expected in the case of orbital degeneracy, when each site of the cubic lattice is represented by two e_g orbitals, which also specify the form of interatomic transfer integrals. Particularly, the existence of two Van Hove singularities in the spectrum of degenerate DE model may lead to the branching of CPA solutions, when the Green function and the self energy become double-valued functions in certain region of the complex plane. Such a behavior can be interpreted as an intrinsic inhomogeneity of the PM state, which consists of two phases characterized by different electronic densities. The phase separation occurs below certain transition temperature, T_P, and naturally explains the appearance of several magnetic transition points, which are frequently seen in manganites.

description: We discuss aspects of the algebraic geometry of compact non-commutative Calabi-Yau manifolds. In this setting, it is appropriate to consider local holomorphic algebras which can be glued together into a compact Calabi-Yau algebra. We consider two examples: a toroidal orbifold T^6/Z_2 x Z_2, and an orbifold of the quintic in CP_4, each with discrete torsion. The non-commutative geometry tools are enough to describe various properties of the orbifolds. First, one describes correctly the fractionation of branes at singularities. Secondly, for the first example we show that one can recover explicitly a large slice of the moduli space of complex structures which deform the orbifold. For this example we also show that we get the correct counting of complex structure deformations at the orbifold point by using traces of non-commutative differential forms (cyclic homology).

description: Der vorliegende Aufsatz befasst sich mit der Thematik von Technik und Technikentwicklung in der Allgemeinbildung vor dem Hintergrund der Omnipräsenz von Wissenschaft und Technik.
Bei der Untersuchung didaktischer Bezugsgrößen werden Paradigmenwechsel in dreifacher Hinsicht herausgearbeitet: Wandel der Technosphäre, Wandel der Wissenschaftskultur (Technoscience) und Wandel im pädagogischen Denken und Handeln. Daraus wird die Notwendigkeit einer interdisziplinär fachdidaktischen Forschung abgeleitet und die Entwicklung von Ansätzen zur Technoscience Education als eine Perspektive diskutiert.
Dieser Aufsatz leistet damit einen Beitrag zu der in den Fachdidaktiken zu führenden Diskussion zur Verschmelzung von Wissenschaft und Technik sowie zu deren fachdidaktischer Reflektion und notwendiger Forschungsausrichtung. Wenn Inter- und Transdisziplinarität als neue Schlüsselqualifikationen gelten, dann muss das nicht nur für die Zielgruppen des Bildungssystems gelten, sondern auch für diejenigen, die dazu didaktische Modelle und Konzepte entwickeln.
Beneficial use of municipal biosolids in mine reclamation to achieve a narrative of layered co-benefits for mines and municipal biosolids generators

description: There have been several expert opinions expressed recently suggesting that few land application options for municipal biosolids have as much benefit as mine reclamation. As our understanding of biosolids evolves, a re-assessment of how they can solve mine reclamation challenges and meet societal needs is a worthwhile endeavour. The use of biosolids and other organic residuals in reclamation views the residuals as both amendments, improving soil productivity, and as feedstocks in topsoil fabrication, which increases total topsoil quantity. Their use also offers the opportunity to reconsider reclamation through the lens of economic growth, with reclamation leading to a new economy, supplementing the previous mining economy. Improved soils used in reclamation enable a range of opportunities for mines. Vegetation development is rapid, and can accommodate reclamation mixture grasses, productive agriculture, or even native forest species in the reclamation plan. The opportunity also exists to develop a highly productive biomass agroforestry system, which has the added potential of economic development on the land base. The BIOSALIX project was developed by SYLVIS to mitigate the stresses of energy transition through innovative mine reclamation practices at Westmoreland Mining’s Paintearth Mine. EPCOR Water Services (Edmonton) biosolids are used as a key tool to achieve climate change mitigation, economic renewal, and environmental enhancement in a broad narrative of change and evolution. The project involves establishment of large-scale willow plantations across mine land requiring reclamation. Biosolids improve willow establishment by amending and augmenting the marginally productive soils. These systems generate a sustainable crop which can be harvested on a continuous basis and used as a carbon source for ongoing reclamation, and as feedstock for composting, bioenergy, and bioproducts. The BIOSALIX project demonstrates the achievement of mine reclamation and realization of co-benefits provided by biosolids use to the mine, the biosolids generator, and the community.

description: Display resolution is frequently exceeded by available image resolution. Recently, apparent display resolution enhancement techniques (ADRE) have demonstrated how characteristics of the human visual system can be exploited to provide super-resolution on high refresh rate displays. In this paper we address the problem of generalizing the apparent display resolution enhancement technique to conventional videos of arbitrary content. We propose an optimization-based approach to continuously translate the video frames in such a way that the added motion enables apparent resolution enhancement for the salient image region. The optimization takes the optimal velocity, smoothness and similarity into account to compute an appropriate trajectory. Additionally, we provide an intuitive user interface which allows to guide the algorithm interactively and preserve important compositions within the video. We present a user study evaluating apparent rendering quality and demonstrate versatility of our method on a variety of general test scenes.
description: Aktuelle Kameras sind in der Lage, Videos mit sehr hoher Auflösung aufzunehmen (> 4K Pixel). Monitore, Fernseher und Projektoren haben jedoch meist eine deutlich niedrigere Auflösung (FullHD). Bei der Darstellung hochaufgelöster Videos auf diesen Geräten gehen durch das nötige Herrunterrechnen der Videodaten feine Details verloren, z.B. Haare oder die Pigmentierung von Oberflächenmaterialien. Es wird ein Verfahren präsentiert, welches die Darstellung eines beliebigen Videos mit einer Auflösung ermöglicht, die perzeptuell höher ist als die Auflösung des Ausgabegerätes.

description: How long does it take a quantum particle to return to its origin? As shown previously under repeated projective measurements aimed to detect the return, the closed cycle yields a geometrical phase which shows that the average first detected return time is quantized. For critical sampling times or when parameters of the Hamiltonian are tuned this winding number is modified. These discontinuous transitions exhibit gigantic fluctuations of the return time. While the general formalism of this problem was studied at length, the magnitude of the fluctuations, which is quantitatively essential, remains poorly characterized. Here, we derive explicit expressions for the variance of the return time, for quantum walks in finite Hilbert space. A classification scheme of the diverging variance is presented, for four different physical effects: the Zeno regime, when the overlap of an energy eigenstate and the detected state is small and when two or three phases of the problem merge. These scenarios present distinct physical effects which can be analyzed with the fluctuations of return times investigated here, leading to a topology-dependent time-energy uncertainty principle.

description: The coupling of space-time torsion to the Dirac equation leads to effects on the energy levels of atoms which can be tested by Hughes-Drever type experiments. Reanalysis of these experiments carried out for testing the anisotropy of mass and anomalous spin couplings can lead to the till now tightest constraint on the axial torsion by $K \leq 1.5 . 10^{-15} m^{-1}$.
