description: Optical bistability provides a simple way to control light with light. We demonstrate low-power thermo-optical bistability caused by the Joule heating mechanism in a one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) nanobeam resonator with a moderate quality factor (Q ~ 8900) with an embedded reverse-biased pn-junction. We show that the photocurrent induced by the linear absorption in this compact resonator considerably reduces the threshold optical power. The proposed approach substantially relaxes the requirements on the input optical power for achieving optical bistability and provides a reliable way to stabilize the bistable features of the device.
The Effects of Prolonged Sitting on Arterial Stiffness and Circulating Angiogenic Cells in Healthy Adults
Creators: name: Evans, William
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: To assess the effects of prolonged sitting on measures of arterial stiffness (AS) and circulating angiogenic cells (CAC), healthy but sedentary subjects completed 3 hours of sitting in a randomized crossover design with 10 calf raises every ten minutes (CALF) or a control condition (CON). Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and pulse wave analysis (PWA) and blood draws were performed pre and post to assess AS. CACs were isolated from venous blood for analysis. PWV significantly increased (Mean Difference [MD]0.30 m/s (0.46), p<0.01) and augmentation index (AIx) from PWA significantly decreased from pre-to post (MD=-9.14% (11.09), p<0.001). There was no significant change in CAC counts per 500,000 events or gene expression in either condition across time. In conclusion, aortic AS increases during sitting despite decreases in arterial wave reflection, and local changes observed previously with physical activity do not persist systemically.

description: In dieser Masterarbeit wird das Singen mit Unterstützter Kommunikation (UK) im Rahmen der Heilpädagogischen Früherziehung (HFE) untersucht. Dafür wurde eigens ein Liederheft mit Gebärden und Piktogrammen konzipiert, welches im Rahmen einer Studie über einen Zeitraum von vier Wochen sowohl in Familien als auch in der Kita zum Einsatz kam. Auf diese Weise wurde analysiert, inwiefern das Singen mit UK die Sprach- und Gesamtentwicklung der Kinder anregt. Die Fortschritte in der Entwicklung der Kinder wurden mithilfe einer Sprachstanderfassung und einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse von Leitfadeninterviews mit den Eltern, Fachpersonen der Kita und einer Expertin analysiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen auf, dass bei den Kindern aus der HFE Fortschritte in der Sprach- und Gesamtentwicklung sichtbar sind, nicht aber bei allen Kindern aus der Kita. Diese Resultate müssen in einem nächsten Schritt differenzierter betrachtet werden.

description: We report the observation of the de Haas-van Alphen effect in IrTe2 measured using torque magnetometry at low temperatures down to 0.4 K and in high magnetic fields up to 33T. IrTe2 undergoes a major structural transition around 283 K due to the formation of planes of Ir and Te dimers that cut diagonally through the lattice planes, with its electronic structure predicted to change significantly from a layered system with predominantly three-dimensional character to a tilted quasi-two dimensional Fermi surface. Quantum oscillations provide direct confirmation of this unusual tilted Fermi surface and also reveal very light quasiparticle masses (less than 1 me), with no significant enhancement due to electronic correlations. We find good agreement between the angular dependence of the observed and calculated de Haas-van Alphen frequencies, taking into account the contribution of different structural domains that form while cooling IrTe2.

description: It is shown that the initial conditions in the quasi-Heisenberg quantization scheme can be set at the initial cosmological singularity per se. This possibility is provided by finiteness of some quantities, namely momentums of the dynamical variables, at a singularity, in spite of infinity of the dynamical variables themselves. The uncertainty principle allows avoiding a necessity to set values of the dynamical variables at singularity, as a wave packet can be expressed through the finite momentums. Influence of the initial condition set in the singularity in such a way to a number of gravitons under a vacuum state, arising during later evolution, is investigated. It is shown that, even choosing of some special state at the singularity minimizing late time expansion rate, some amount of gravitons still appear in the late time evolution.

Statistical Evidence for Contributions of Flares and Coronal Mass Ejections to Major Solar Energetic Particle Events

description: Solar energetic particle (SEP) events are related to flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). This work is a new investigation of statistical relationships between SEP peak intensities - deka-MeV protons and near-relativistic electrons - and characteristic quantities of the associated solar activity. We consider the speed of the CME and quantities describing the flare-related energy release: peak flux and fluence of soft X-ray (SXR) emission, fluence of microwave emission. The sample comprises 38 SEP events associated with strong SXR bursts (classes M and X) in the western solar hemisphere between 1997 and 2006, and where the flare-related particle acceleration is accompanied by radio bursts indicating electron escape to the interplanetary space. The main distinction of the present statistical analysis from earlier work is that besides the classical Pearson correlation coefficient the partial correlation coefficients are calculated in order to disentangle the effects of correlations between the solar parameters themselves. The classical correlation analysis shows the usual picture of correlations with broad scatter between SEP peak intensities and the different parameters of solar activity, and strong correlations between the solar activity parameters themselves. The partial correlation analysis shows that the only parameters that affect significantly the SEP intensity are the CME speed and the SXR fluence. The SXR peak flux and the microwave fluence have no additional contribution. We conclude that these findings bring statistical evidence that both flare acceleration and CME shock acceleration contribute to the deka-MeV proton and near-relativistic electron populations in large SEP events.

title: Stability and recharging of aprotic Li-O₂ batteries
Creators: name: Chen, Yuhui
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2014

description: Non-aqueous rechargeable lithium-air (O₂) batteries are receiving intense interest because of their high theoretical specific energy, which are several times greater than that of lithium-ion batteries. To achieve it, the highly reversible formation/decomposition of Li₂O₂ is required to occur in the cathode during cycling. Due to the reactivity of reduced O₂ species, the aprotic electrolyte and carbon electrode substrate would be attacked and then decomposed. The organic carbonate decomposed on discharge, forming C₃H₆(OCO₂Li)₂, Li₂CO₃, HCO₂Li, CH₃CO₂Li, CO₂ and H₂O. Part of these by-products decomposed on the subsequent charge process and the rest remained and blocked the electrode surface. Finally, the cell cycling stopped because of the depletion of electrolyte and the passivation of the electrode surface. Possible mechanisms are proposed for reactions on discharge and charge. Some other types of aprotic solvents were investigated in the same way. Ethers, amides, sulfones, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), etc reveal better stability than organic carbonates. Reversible formation/decomposition was observed together with minor side-reactions. Besides electrolytes, carbon substrate of electrode also slightly decomposed. Several other substrate materials were studied. If the carbon electrodes were replaced with the nanoporous gold electrodes, less side-reaction was observed in the cells, and the cell sustained 100 cycles without severe polarisation and capacity fading. The charge performance of a Li-O₂ cell remains a challenge. Great voltage polarisation even at modest rate was observed because of the difficulty of charge transfer between solid electrode surface and solid Li₂O₂. Redox mediators were used in a Li-O₂ cell, which transported the charge between electrode surface and solid Li₂O₂, acting as an electron-hole transfer agent. The oxidation of solid Li₂O₂ was facilitated and the cell with mediator demonstrated 100 charge/discharge cycles.

description: Large-scale earthquake simulation requires source datasets which describe the highly heterogeneous physical characteristics of the earth in the region under simulation. Physical characteristic datasets are the first stage in a simulation pipeline which includes mesh generation, partitioning, solving, and visualization. In practice, the data is produced in an ad-hoc fashion for each set of experiments, which has several significant shortcomings including lower performance, decreased repeatability and comparability, and a longer time to science, an increasingly important metric. As a solution to these problems, we propose a new approach for providing scientific data to ground motion simulations, in which ground model datasets are fully materialized into octress stored on disk, which can be more efficiently queried (by up to two orders of magnitude) than the underlying community velocity model programs. While octrees have long been used to store spatial datasets, they have not yet been used at the scale we propose. We further propose that these datasets can be provided as a service, either over the Internet or, more likely, in a data center or supercomputing center in which the simulations take place. Since constructing these octrees is itself a challenge, we present three data-parallel techniques for efficiently building them, which can significantly decrease the build time from days or weeks to hours using commodity clusters. This approach typifies a broader shift toward science as a service techniques in which scientific computation and storage services become more tightly intertwined.

description: The dual parametrization and the Mellin-Barnes integral approach represent two frameworks for handling the double partial wave expansion of generalized parton distributions (GPDs) in the conformal partial waves and in the $t$-channel ${\rm SO}(3)$ partial waves. Within the dual parametrization framework, GPDs are represented as integral convolutions of forward-like functions whose Mellin moments generate the conformal moments of GPDs. The Mellin-Barnes integral approach is based on the analytic continuation of the GPD conformal moments to the complex values of the conformal spin. GPDs are then represented as the Mellin-Barnes-type integrals in the complex conformal spin plane. In this paper we explicitly show the equivalence of these two independently developed GPD representations. Furthermore, we clarify the notions of the $J=0$ fixed pole and the $D$-form factor. We also provide some insight into GPD modeling and map the phenomenologically successful Kumerički-Müller GPD model to the dual parametrization framework by presenting the set of the corresponding forward-like functions. We also build up the reparametrization procedure allowing to recast the double distribution representation of GPDs in the Mellin-Barnes integral framework and present the explicit formula for mapping double distributions into the space of double partial wave amplitudes with complex conformal spin.

description: Transversal oscillations of spicules axes may be related to the propagation of magnetohydrodynamic waves along them. These waves may become unstable and the instability can be of the Kelvin-Helmholtz type. We use the dispersion relation of kink mode derived from linearized magnetohydrodynamic equations. The input parameters of the derived dispersion equation, namely, spicules and their ambient medium densities ratios as well as their corresponding magnetic fields ratios, are considered to be within the range $0-1$. By solving the dispersion equation numerically, we show that for higher densities and lower magnetic fields ratios within the range mentioned, the KHI onset in type II spicules conditions is possible. This possibility decreases with an increase in Alfven velocity inside spicules. A rough criterion for appearing of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is obtained. We also drive a more reliable and exact criterion for KHI onset of kink waves.

Assessing the Convergence of Self-Report and Informant Measures for Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Creators: name: Sandercock, Rachel
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Self-report measures are widely used for research and clinical assessment of adults with ASD, though there has been little research examining the convergence of self- and informant-report in this population. The present study examined agreement between reporters on measures of symptom severity, daily living skills, and quality of life, as well as predictive value of each reporter for independent living and employment outcomes. Results indicated no significant differences between caregiver and self-report ratings of symptom severity, though there were significant differences between reporters on ratings of daily living skills and quality of life. Despite discrepancies, caregiver and self-report scores were significantly positively correlated on all measures. Additionally, combining caregiver-report and self-report measures provided significantly higher predictive value of objective outcomes than did measures from a single reporter. These results indicate that self-report is valid for this population, but emphasizes the importance of a multi-informant approach in assessment and treatment planning.

Dazu wird folgende Forschungsfrage gestellt: Was sind die Gelingensbedingungen, damit Kinder und Jugendliche aus asylsuchenden Familien in Graubünden in der Volksschule lernen und in die Gesellschaft integriert werden können? Der Untersuchung liegt ein qualitatives Forschungsdesign zugrunde. Mittels Leitfadeninterviews mit betroffenen Personen werden Daten erhoben, kategorisiert und anhand einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse der Befragung zeigen, dass alle Beteiligten im Grunde das gleiche Ziel verfolgen: Einen gut vorbereiteten Übertritt und damit die Chance auf Integration, Bildung und Teilhabe in unserer Gesellschaft. Aus der Untersuchung geht hervor, dass die Gelingensbedingungen primär von der Haltung der Gesellschaft, von der Sicherstellung von Fördergeldern sowie von der Zusammenarbeit der Beteiligten abhängig sind. Die Prozesse, welche auf Kantonsebene bezüglich der Beschulung von Kindern mit Asylhintergrund in Gang gesetzt wurden, deuten auf eine Verbesserung hin, sofern sie wirklich weiterverfolgt werden.
A note on forecasting demand using the multivariate exponential smoothing framework

description: Simple exponential smoothing is widely used in forecasting economic time series. This is because it is quick to compute and it generally delivers accurate forecasts. On the other hand, its multivariate version has received little attention due to the complications arising with the estimation. Indeed, standard multivariate maximum likelihood methods are affected by numerical convergence issues and bad complexity, growing with the dimensionality of the model. In this paper, we introduce a new estimation strategy for multivariate exponential smoothing, based on aggregating its observations into scalar models and estimating them. The original high-dimensional maximum likelihood problem is broken down into several univariate ones, which are easier to solve. Contrary to the multivariate maximum likelihood approach, the suggested algorithm does not suffer heavily from the dimensionality of the model. The method can be used for time series forecasting. In addition, simulation results show that our approach performs at least as well as a maximum likelihood estimator on the underlying VMA(1) representation, at least in our test problems.

FIGURATIVE THINKING

description: For young learners the development of creativity plays an essential role in the world exploration. Figurative thinking at the primary school age is the turning point: moving from a visual-figurative type of thinking to a conceptual one. To solve this problem the method of modelling with plasticine is used in foreign language lessons which improves kids’ motor and cognitive skills simultaneously. From childhood through adulthood, modelling plays a key role in the acquisition and development of cognitive and meta-cognitive skills, fine motor skills, interpersonal skills, and later professional abilities. Each of these is gained primarily through the process of observation.The given article deals with the effectiveness of the «Modelling in English» method in English lessons at primary school. Through the experimental learning the authors confirm that the use of this method helps to increase motivation in learning a foreign language, develop the schoolchildren’s creativity, improve speaking skills and create a comfortable psychological atmosphere in the classroom.

description: The article tackles several psychological, cognitive and linguistic issues that reflect the problems of Italian language acquisition by foreign students. The present study is based on contemporary interpretation of language contact and the particular features of cross-cultural communication and multilingualism. The article is focused on the theoretical grounds in interlanguage interference of Italian and English languages whereas special attention is paid to contrastive analysis and error analysis, the basic ways for overcoming interference mistakes. The authors present corrective strategies for approaching interlanguage interference with the purpose to improve the quality of language knowledge and its transformation into language competence.
Examination of Balance Using Laboratory-Based and Clinical Measures in Female Survivors of Breast Cancer
Creators: name: Shatten, Charlotte
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2012

description: This study compared laboratory-based and clinical measures of balance between 10 breast cancer survivors (BCS) and 10 healthy, age, weight, and physical activity level matched controls (CNT). The single leg stance (SLS) and force plate parameters (sway speed (SS) and sway path (SP)) were the main outcome variables. No statistically significant differences were found on the clinical SLS with either eyes open or closed between the BCS and CNT groups (p=0.38, p=0.37; respectively). Additionally, no significant differences between groups were found on the laboratory-based measures SS or SP during any test condition (p>0.05). In conclusion, no significant differences in balance using either clinical or laboratory-based tests between BCS and CNT were observed in this study. It appears that the age differences in BCS enrolled in this study compared to other studies and the amount of time off cancer therapy, may explain in part the non-significant differences between groups.

description: Studying the orbital stability of multi-planet systems is essential to understand planet formation, estimate the stable time of an observed planetary system, and advance population synthesis models. Although previous studies have primarily focused on ideal systems characterized by uniform orbital separations, in reality a diverse range of orbital separations exists among planets within the same system. This study focuses on investigating the dynamical stability of systems with non-uniform separation. We considered a system with 10 planets with masses of $10^{-7}$ solar masses around a central star with a mass of $1$ solar mass. We performed more than 100,000 runs of N-body simulations with different parameters. Results demonstrate that reducing merely one pair of planetary spacing leads to an order of magnitude shorter orbital crossing times that could be formulated based on the Keplerian periods of the closest separation pair. Furthermore, the first collisions are found to be closely associated with the first encounter pair that is likely to be the closest separation pair initially. We conclude that when estimating the orbital crossing time and colliding pairs in a realistic situation, updating the formula derived for evenly spaced systems would be necessary.

description: Multimedia corpora increasingly consist of data from multiple sources, with different characteristics that can be exploited by specialized applications. This paper focuses on video classification over multiple-source collections, and addresses the question whether classifiers should train from individual sources or from a full data set across all sources. If training separately, how can rank lists from different sources be merged effectively? We formulate the problem of merging ranked lists as learning a function mapping from local scores to global scores, and propose a learning method based on logistic regression. In our experiments we find that source characteristics are very important for video classification. Moreover, our method of learning mapping functions performs significantly better than merging methods without explicitly learning the mapping junctions

description: The most relevant phenomena always find their expression in language. In 2022 such an expression was the word permacrisis, reflecting the current situation of instability and uncertainty. In this article, the author conducts a semantic analysis of frequently used lexical co-occurrences with the word permacrisis and its contextual synonyms polycrisis and metacrisis in order to differentiate the spheres of use of these concepts. The author’s hypothesis is based on the fact that these concepts, although they have a similar nature, differ in their meaning. For the analysis, representative samples were retrieved using the Google Scholar database, as well as the newspaper articles from reliable and open media sources, namely The Economist, The Guardian, The Financial Times, The Times. The author selected the most frequently used lexical co-occurrences, classified and marked them by characteristic features and conduct the semantic analysis of selected samples.As a result of the study, the low use of the word permacrisis was revealed, due to the non-lacunar character of this definition, the ambiguity and interference of the terms perma-, poly- and metacrisis, as well as the unusual usage and unpopularity of the word-forming unit perma-. Semantic analysis of the co-occurrences helped differentiate the terms and defined permacrisis as a crisis state of an individual or society as a whole, metacrisis as an abstract concept, a super-idea of a crisis, and polycrisis as a set of concurrent crisis situations.

description: This article is an attempt to (a) analyze the history of foreign language teaching at Russian engineering universities, (b) compare present-day foreign language courses offered to students of engineering, and (c) prognosticate their further development patterns. In the course of the research, the authors analyzed the history of foreign language studies at Russian universities since the days of Peter the Great. The authors also studied the impact of electronic gadgets, language learning and translation software on foreign language teaching at the Russian engineering universities.The authors examined several works on the study of foreign languages at Russian universities and applied comparative and analytical approaches to prognosticate the future concept of foreign language studies there.Engineering universities tend to offer more foreign language programmes, meaning that employers prefer engineers with an excellent command of foreign languages. Hence, foreign languages need more class hours. Advanced technologies are a new reality for foreign language teachers, whose objective is to turn novel devices into aides rather than advanced cheat sheets.

title: Factors impacting on the integration of digital technology in learning and teaching in educational establishments

Subjects: subject: Digital technology, education, teachers, digital learning and teaching.

description: Digital technology is seen as a way of transforming conventional education. However, this transformation has not happened: digital technology is mainly used to support traditional learning and teaching. In order to transform, digital technology needs to be integrated into pedagogy. I research factors (enablers and inhibitors) that impact the integration of digital technology in learning and teaching in educational establishments. Interviews were carried out with two sets of people: first, staff including teachers, in two Scottish local authorities who had undertaken professional learning on the implementation of Google G Suite, and second, those who developed and implemented the Scottish Government’s (2016) Digital Learning and Teaching Strategy on Enhancing Learning and Teaching Through the Use of Digital Technology. The findings indicate that two sets of factors, professional and institutional, impact the implementation of digital technology. The professional sub factors are teacher’s perceptions and attitudes, curriculum and assessment and the impact of professional development on teachers’ digital literacy skills. The institutional sub factors are connectivity, cybersecurity and hardware and ecological issues. Professional and institutional factors are not mutually exclusive and can be enablers or inhibitors in the integration of digital technology in learning and teaching in educational establishments. This complex picture is best examined through an ecological perspective. The study outlines a series of recommendations to improve the integration, and, therefore, transformation, of digital technology in learning and teaching.
Message routing on irregular 2D-meshes and tori

description: Abstract: "Wormhole message routing is supported by the communication hardware of several distributed memory machines. This particular method of message routing has numerous advantages but creates the problem of a routing deadlock. When long messages compete for the same channels in the network, some messages will be blocked until the first message is fully consumed by the processor at the destination of the message. A deadlock occurs if a set of messages mutually blocks, and no message can progress towards its destination. Most deadlock free routing schemes previously known are designed to work on regular binary hypercubes, a very special case of multicomputer interconnection networks.However, these routing schemes do not provide enough flexibility to deal with the irregular 2-D-tori and attached auxiliary cells found on many newer parallel systems. To handle irregular topologies elegantly, a simple proof is necessary to verify the router code. The new proof given in this report is carried out directly on the network graph. It is constructive in the sense that it reveals the design options to deal with irregularities and shows how additional flexibility can be used to achieve better load balancing. Based on the modified routing model, a set of deadlock free router functions relevant to the iWarp system configurations are described and proven to be correct."
