description: We present a boundary integral formulation of electromagnetic scattering by homogeneous bodies that are characterized by linear constitutive equations in the frequency domain. By working with the Cartesian components of the electric, E and magnetic, H fields and with the scalar functions (r*E) and (r*H), the problem is cast as solving a set of scalar Helmholtz equations for the field components that are coupled by the usual electromagnetic boundary conditions at material boundaries. This facilitates a direct solution for E and H rather than working with surface currents as intermediate quantities in existing methods. Consequently, our formulation is free of the well-known numerical instability that occurs in the zero frequency or long wavelength limit in traditional surface integral solutions of Maxwell's equations and our numerical results converge uniformly to the static results in the long wavelength limit. Furthermore, we use a formulation of the scalar Helmholtz equation that is expressed as classically convergent integrals and does not require the evaluation of principal value integrals or any knowledge of the solid angle. Therefore, standard quadrature and higher order surface elements can readily be used to improve numerical precision. In addition, near and far field values can be calculated with equal precision and multiscale problems in which the scatterers possess characteristic length scales that are both large and small relative to the wavelength can be easily accommodated. From this we obtain results for the scattering and transmission of electromagnetic waves at dielectric boundaries that are valid for any ratio of the local surface curvature to the wave number. This is a generalization of the familiar Fresnel formula and Snell's law, valid at planar dielectric boundaries, for the scattering and transmission of electromagnetic waves at surfaces of arbitrary curvature.

description: We revisit the formulations and simulations of angular distributions in polarization-dependent core-level photoemission spectra of strongly correlated electron systems, in order to explain the recently discovered linear dichroism (LD) in the core-level photoemission of 4f-based rare-earth compounds. Owing to the selection rules for the optical process of core-level excitations, the LD originating from the anisotropic outer localized charge distributions determined by the ground-state orbital symmetry can be observed. Our simulations show that core d-level excitations are essential for the LD in localized ions having a cubic symmetry, which is absent in the p-orbital excitations.

description: Many biological systems form colonies at high density. Passive granular systems will be jammed at such densities, yet for the survival of biological systems it is crucial that they are dynamic. We construct a phase diagram for a system of active particles interacting via Vicsek alignment, and vary the density, self-propulsion force, and orientational noise. We find that the system exhibits four different phases, characterized by transitions in the effective diffusion constant and in the orientational order parameter. Our simulations show that there exists an optimal noise such that particles require a minimal force to unjam, allowing for rearrangements.

Survival of stroke patients according to hypertension status in northern Ethiopia
Creators: name: Hagos, Zenawi
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Background: Globally, stroke appears as a major cause of preventable death and disability. In Ethiopia, the intra-hospital mortality of stroke is significant and there is scarcity of epidemiologic data whether there is a difference in the overall survival time between hypertensive and non-hypertensive adult stroke patients admitted in specialized hospitals. Objectives: To determine the survival of stroke patients according to their hypertension status admitted in Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northern Ethiopia from March 1, 2012 to February 28, 2019. Methods: A facility-based retrospective cohort study conducted among all cohorts of confirmed first-ever stroke patients admitted in Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northern Ethiopia. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis applied to estimate the survival probability of hypertensive and non-hypertensive first ever stroke patients. Cox proportional hazards regression model used to determine the adjusted hazard ratio of death for each main baseline predictor variable, with 95% CI and P-value <0.05 was used to declare statistical significance. The assumptions of Cox proportional hazards regression model assessed by the global test, Schoenfeld residuals. Results: There were 503 (323 were hypertensive, 180 Non-hypertensive) confirmed first, ever stroke patients, the overall median age of the patients was 65 years, IQR (53-75) years. Seventy-five (14.91%) of them were dead, with median survival time of 48 days and 428 (85.09%) of them were censored. At any particular point in time the hazard of death among hypertensive patients was two times higher than non-hypertensive patients but this was not found to be a statistically significant (adjusted HR=2.13: 95% CI 0.66-6.81). Glasgow coma scale 3-8 at admission (adjusted HR=10.12; 95% CI 2.58-40.68), presence of stroke complications (adjusted HR=7.23; 95% CI 1.86-28.26) and borderline high total cholesterol level (adjusted HR=3.57; 95% CI 1.15-11.1), were the only independent predictors of intrahospital patient mortality. Conclusion and recommendations: There was a non-significant difference in the overall survival time between hypertensive and non-hypertensive first-ever stroke patients. Early identification and treatment of stroke complications, co-morbidities along with strict follow up of comatose patients may improve intrahospital survival of stroke patients and we recommend community based studies using large sample size.

description: We apply a recursive approach to the continuity equation of the Madelung fluid resulting in a propagation equation for particle probability densities. This propagation equation can be used to propagate particle distributions in the presence of a Madelung pressure field. We show that the derived propagation equation goes over into the guidance equation of the de Broglie-Bohm theory in the limit of well located single particles. As an example, we propagate particles that enter the lower slit of a double-slit experiment, while the Madelung fluid enters both slits.

Biochemical analysis: capillarity, fluorescence and optical microscopy in small liquid volume measurement
Creators: name: Cheong, Brandon Huey-Ping
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Biochemical Analysis deals with a number of techniques used to analyse substances within living cells and the chemical processes that are associated with it. Technologies that stem from biochemical analysis include the engineering of microfluidic devices and other instrumentation that enable scientists to obtain information from assays in a laboratory environment. These methods however, involve the use of complex and precise machinery in their manufacturing, and are not always available in a resource-limited laboratory. This thesis comprises an extensive study in small liquid volume measurement specifically in the context of capillarity, fluorescence and optical microscopy. Robust novel designs, methods and concepts have been researched and are presented here for their viable use. Dynamic flow was investigated through coverslip fluidics under a controlled environment and through the generation of a squeeze flow. A microfluidic channel was constructed to be used in conjunction with an optical microscope for the viewing of flagellate algal cells, and a squeeze flow generation between a microscope slide and circular coverslip was found to be effective for collection of various preconcentrated samples. Additionally, a simple method to measure the contact angle in a capillary tube was developed by lighting up its corresponding meniscus with an LED. Fluorescent liquid sensing and detecting was done through the use of the capillary wells microplate and optical fibre light guide approaches. Standard wells of a microplate were substituted for capillary tubes enabling meniscus and bubble formation errors to be eliminated, and the use of light guide optical fibres placed in very close proximity to a fluorescent droplet, enhanced measurement sensitivity. Microplate technology was also studied and a transparency based microplate was developed. This design resulted in higher fluorescent intensity readings to a standard microplate and was due to liquids contained in incised wells adopting a convex meniscus form. Mixing was also accomplished in a microplate well by inserting a superhydrophobic rod at the centre of a droplet. Finally, a liquid between two glass rods microplate was established with the added benefits of mixing, fluorescent measuring and integration on to lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices. Two glass rods were placed in parallel with one another and a fluorescent liquid was dispensed between them and held in place by capillary forces. By inserting an optical fibre (attached to an LED) into one of the capillary tubes, fluorescent readings were obtained with an optical microscope and through mechanical actuation, complete homogeneous mixing was achieved through the coalescence of droplets. Additionally, an open analyte system and prospects of a dynamic system suggested potential for integration on to LOC devices.

description: Software for mixed-integer linear programming can return incorrect results for a number of reasons, one being the use of inexact floating-point arithmetic. Even solvers that employ exact arithmetic may suffer from programming or algorithmic errors, motivating the desire for a way to produce independently verifiable certificates of claimed results. Due to the complex nature of state-of-the-art MILP solution algorithms, the ideal form of such a certificate is not entirely clear. This paper proposes such a certificate format, illustrating its capabilities and structure through examples. The certificate format is designed with simplicity in mind and is composed of a list of statements that can be sequentially verified using a limited number of simple yet powerful inference rules. We present a supplementary verification tool for compressing and checking these certificates independently of how they were created. We report computational results on a selection of mixed-integer linear programming instances from the literature. To this end, we have extended the exact rational version of the MIP solver SCIP to produce such certificates.

Year: 2018

description: The purpose of this study is to assess the challenges of indirect sales channel management in ethio telecom. Channel management is about selecting and motivating the intermediaries and to evaluate their achievements (Kotler & Armstrong, 1999; Jobber, 2001), further complements with the issues of training and managing conflicts between producer and intermediaries is important. Ethio telecom distribute it products through indirect channel, although the distribution channel plays an important role in the company the distribution channel management has challenges. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the core distribution management challenges in practicing distribution management elements: Selection process, motivation, training, evaluation and conflict management. The study utilizes both quantitative and qualitative research approaches and descriptive research design. For selecting sample simple random sampling technique is used, in that ethio distribution related staffs and distributors staffs are participated. The total sample size is 141. In terms of questionnaires administered, 141 respondents have received the questionnaire, and 123 (87%) have returned the filled out questionnaire. Data analysis is performed by using descriptive statistics. IBM SPSS statistical software version 20 is used. In addition, to fill the questionnaires gap, data was collected by conducting interview research. The result of the research identified that the distributor selection process lacks contract that convince partners, motivating partners with bonuses, rewards, support on trade fairs are shortage of the channel, there is improper handling on conflict management and the training investment has less attention, from identified challenges improper handling of conflict can damage the company since the collusion bring malfunction of both the principal and the partner. Hence as the distribution channel is significant contributors for the company revenue and sales it needs to work on identified gaps. The study finding can have implications for further research and policy.

description: Outflows in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are crucial to understand in investigating the co-evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies since outflows may play an important role as an AGN feedback mechanism. Based on the archival UV spectra obtained with HST and IUE, we investigate outflows in the broad-line region (BLR) in low-redshift AGNs (z < 0.4) through the detailed analysis of the velocity profile of the CIV emission line. We find a dependence of the outflow strength on the Eddington ratio and the BLR metallicity in our low-redshift AGN sample, which is consistent with the earlier results obtained for high-redshift quasars. These results suggest that the BLR outflows, gas accretion onto SMBH, and past star-formation activity in the host galaxies are physically related in low-redshift AGNs as in powerful high-redshift quasars.

Production of biohydrogen by rhodobacter sphaeroides in pulp and paper mill effluent through photofermentation
Creators: name: Hay, Jacqueline Xiao Wen
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Worldwide industrial development during the past century has led to the depletion of fossil fuel as global energy requirements are mostly dependent on fossil. These concerns have drawn significant attention and effort around the globe to develop renewable biofuel to replace the existing non-renewable fossil fuel. In relation to this matter, photofermentative biohydrogen production provides opportunities for sustainable energy (biohydrogen) from reutilizing industrial effluent via photosynthetic microorganisms. Technologies in producing biohydrogen from industrial effluent through photofermentation are well developed. However, there have been limited studies of applying ultrasonication as a pretreatment method on wastewater and the cells prior to photofermentative biohydrogen production process. Ultrasonication on lignocellulosic type of wastewater as a pretreatment could remove or weaken the structure of lignin and increase the surface area of the material, which helps the photosynthetic bacteria to digest the substrate more effectively. Ultrasonication on cells could modify the bacterial membrane structure, improve cell activities and the release of intracellular enzymes. The enzymes help to degrade large molecules into smaller molecules which facilitate the diffusion of molecules into the cell. The ultrasonication pretreatment effect on photofermentative biohydrogen production using pulp and paper mill effluent (PPME) as a substrate remains unknown. Thus, the main aim of this project was to investigate the feasibility of reutilizing PPME as a substrate for photofermentative biohydrogen production. In the present study, ultrasonication method was also applied as a pretreatment process for both PPME and Rhodobacter sphaeroides NCIMB8253 prior to biohydrogen production process.

description: There is a growing awareness that catastrophic phenomena in biology and medicine can be mathematically represented in terms of saddle-node bifurcations. In particular, the term `tipping', or critical transition has in recent years entered the discourse of the general public in relation to ecology, medicine, and public health. The saddle-node bifurcation and its associated theory of catastrophe as put forth by Thom and Zeeman has seen applications in a wide range of fields including molecular biophysics, mesoscopic physics, and climate science. In this paper, we investigate a simple model of a non-autonomous system with a time-dependent parameter $p(τ)$ and its corresponding `dynamic' (time-dependent) saddle-node bifurcation by the modern theory of non-autonomous dynamical systems. We show that the actual point of no return for a system undergoing tipping can be significantly delayed in comparison to the {\em breaking time} $\hatτ$ at which the corresponding autonomous system with a time-independent parameter $p_{a}= p(\hatτ)$ undergoes a bifurcation. A dimensionless parameter $α=λp_0^3V^{-2}$ is introduced, in which $λ$ is the curvature of the autonomous saddle-node bifurcation according to parameter $p(τ)$, which has an initial value of $p_{0}$ and a constant rate of change $V$. We find that the breaking time $\hatτ$ is always less than the actual point of no return $τ^*$ after which the critical transition is irreversible; specifically, the relation $τ^*-\hatτ\simeq 2.338(λV)^{-\frac{1}{3}}$ is analytically obtained. For a system with a small $λV$, there exists a significant window of opportunity $(\hatτ,τ^*)$ during which rapid reversal of the environment can save the system from catastrophe.

description: This thesis explores the development of functional state estimation schemes using sliding mode observers. In many practical situations, the internal state of a system cannot be determined by direct measurement, and an observer may be use to estimate the unavailable states based on the measured outputs and control inputs. Existing work has shown that the functional observer (which estimates only a subset of the states) can be used to eliminate the redundancy possessed in full-state estimation, and also reduce computational burden. The sliding mode observer has been shown to have excellent performance in robust state estimation, and also has the extra ability of estimating the unknown input. Its use for functional state estimation is still very much in its infancy with no significant works being reported. This thesis combines the theories of functional state estimation and sliding mode observer to reduce the observer complexity as well as improve the overall performance of the observer. The first contribution of this thesis is the reformulation of the system such that the sliding mode observer can be implemented directly to achieve functional state estimation. The next contribution is the development of a two-observer scheme (which uses two observers in cascade) for functional state estimation and the investigation of its existence conditions, which were found to be weaker and more general than previous work. Following that, the work of cascading observers was extended to multiple sliding mode observers is explored, together with the investigation of its existence conditions in terms of the original system matrices; these conditions enable the user to know at the outset whether the observer scheme is applicable to their system or not, and also systematically calculates the number of observers necessary and sufficient. Following that, a new functional state estimation method is introduced, where the functional state is modeled as an unknown input, and then estimated using the ability of the sliding mode observer to estimate unknown inputs. Finally, the functional observer is implemented on the a class of descriptor systems, and the necessary and sufficient conditions are investigated. The efficiency of the functional observer schemes presented in this thesis are demonstrated by simulation examples.

Essential Signatures and Monomial Bases for $B_n$ and $D_n$
Creators: name: Gornitskii, A. A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Representation Theory (math.RT)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In the representation theory of simple Lie algebras, we consider the problem of constructing a monomial basis in an arbitrary irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight module. We construct a PBW-type basis in every finite-dimensional representation of $B_n$ and $D_n$ and we describe the associated semigroup of essential signatures. These bases are parameterized by integer points in some polytopes. We give the inequalities defining these polytopes.

On Global attraction to solitary waves for Klein-Gordon equation with concentrated nonlinearity

Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The global attraction is proved for the nonlinear 3D Klein-Gordon equation with a nonlinearity concentrated at one point. Our main result is the convergence of each "finite energy solution" to the manifold of all solitary waves as $t\to\pm\infty$. This global attraction is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersion radiation. We justify this mechanism by the following strategy based on inflation of spectrum by the nonlinearity. We show that any omega-limit trajectory has the time-spectrum in the spectral gap $[-m,m]$ and satisfies the original equation. Then the application of the Titchmarsh Convolution Theorem reduces the spectrum of each omega-limit trajectory to a single frequency $ω\in[-m,m]$.

description: The compound ZrTe$_5$ has recently been connected to a charge-density-wave (CDW) state with intriguing transport properties. Here, we investigate quantum oscillations in ultrasound measurements that microscopically originate from electron-phonon coupling and analyze how these would be affected by the presence or absence of a CDW. We calculate the phonon self-energy due to electron-phonon coupling, and from there deduce the sound-velocity renormalization and sound attenuation. We find that the theoretical predictions for a metallic Dirac model resemble the experimental data on a quantitative level for magnetic fields up to the quantum-limit regime.

description: In the traditional view, the magnetic moment appearing in the superconducting region is induced by equal-spin triplet superconducting correlations in superconductor ($S$) ferromagnet ($F$) heterostructure with noncollinear magnetization. In this paper, we represent that in $NSF_1F_2$ ($N$--normal-metal) spin-valve structure the induced magnetic moment emerging in both the $S$ and $N$ regions can also be generated by Cooper pair splitting: one electron coherently tunnels from the $S$ layer into the $F_1$ layer, and the other one stays in the $S$ layer or tunnels into the $N$ layer. Two electrons are spatially separated from each other but their total spin ground state is entangled in this process. In contrast, the magnetic moment induced by the equal-spin triplet correlations hardly penetrates from the $S$ layer into the $N$ layer. In particular, by tuning the size of the exchange field and the thickness of the $F_1$ layer, one may control the direction of the induced magnetic moment in the $N$ layer. This interesting phenomenon can be attributed to the phase-shift obtained by the spin-entangled electrons. Our theoretical proposal will offer an effective way to control the entanglement of the nonlocal electrons, and also may provide possible explanations for previous and recent experimental observations [Stamopoulos et al 2005 Phys. Rev. B 72 212514; Ovsyannikov et al 2016 J. Exp. Theor. Phys. 122 738; Flokstra et al 2016 Nat. Phys. 12 57].

description: Introduction - Measles is a highly contagious, acute, viral illness caused by a member of the genus morbilli virus of the Paramyxoviridae.. In Africa, 450 000 cases were reported and in Sub Saharan Africa with 250, 000 deaths in 2009. In Ethiopia, measles cases usually come late to health facilities and often after they have developed complications. Investigation was done to verify the existence of an outbreak, to determine the magnitude and identify associated risk factors contributing for the occurrence of the outbreak. Methods - A cross-sectional descriptive study followed by a one to two unmatched case control study was conducted from January 7 to February 3, 2019. Interview using structured questionnaire was used to collect data from cases and controls. Data were managed and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2007 and Epi-Info 7.2.1.0. Results - Over the period of the outbreak, 23 measles cases were identified. The age of cases ranged from 1 to 12 years old, with median age of 5 years. Of the total cases, 13(57%) were under five years and 10(43 %) of them were above five years. The overall attack rate of the disease was 7 per 1000 inhabitants of the kebele, with no death. Having contact with a person suspected to have measles during the last weeks OR: 6.4 (95% CI, 12. 6 – 44.3) and presence of measles case in the family OR: 6.5 (95% CI, 4.4 – 13.22) were significantly associated with contracting measles. Moreover, absence of measles vaccination was a risk factor for developing measles (OR: 2.53, (95% CI 1.7 – 14.67). Conclusion and Recommendations- The outbreak occurred in a remote pocket Kebele of the Sewena District with extremely low immunization coverage. Multiple factors contributed for the occurrence of the outbreak. We recommend enhanced routine immunization service, and awareness creation to the community on mode of transmission, prevention and health seeking behavior.
