description: The frequency scale for the symptoms of GERD (FSSG) questionnaire, which originally consists of acid-reflux and dysmotility symptom domains, is a succinct questionnaire to evaluate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms. To evaluate the utility of subjective questionnaire of GERD for the diagnosis of GERD-related cough by using FSSG questionnaire. We recruited 256 patients with subacute/chronic cough between April 2012 and March 2018, who were analyzed using FSSG questionnaire and blood eosinophil counts. GERD-related cough was inferred through the presence of classic reflux symptoms including heartburn and/or typical coughing trigger (e.g. phonation, rising, lying, eating, and intake of certain food). The diagnosis was confirmed by response to specific treatments for GERD. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to determine the cutoff score for the diagnosis. One-hundred ten patients (43%) were diagnosed as having GERD-related cough. FSSG questionnaire was relevant for diagnosing GERD-related cough, with the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.70 (p p The subjective questionnaire of GERD (FSSG) would be helpful in diagnosing GERD-related cough, particularly in patients with low blood or sputum eosinophil counts.
A new renormalization group approach for systems with strong electron correlation

description: The anomalous low energy behaviour observed in metals with strong electron correlation, such as in the heavy fermion materials, is believed to arise from the scattering of the itinerant electrons with low energy spin fluctuations. In systems with magnetic impurities this scattering leads to the Kondo effect and a low energy renormalized energy scale, the Kondo temperature $T_{\rm K}$. It has been generally assumed that these low energy scales can only be accessed by a non-perturbative approach due to the strength of the local inter-electron interactions. Here we show that it is possible to circumvent this difficulty by first suppressing the spin fluctuations with a large magnetic field. As a first step field-dependent renormalized parameters are calculated using standard perturbation theory. A renormalized perturbation theory is then used to calculate the renormalized parameters for a reduced magnetic field strength. The process can be repeated and the flow of the renormalized parameters continued to zero magnetic field. We illustrate the viability of this approach for the single impurity Anderson model. The results for the renormalized parameters, which flow as a function of magnetic field, can be checked with those from numerical renormalization group and Bethe ansatz calculations.

A striking correspondence between the dynamics generated by the vector fields and by the scalar parabolic equations

description: The purpose of this paper is to enhance a correspondence between the dynamics of the differential equations $\dot y(t)=g(y(t))$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and those of the parabolic equations $\dot u=Δu +f(x,u,\nabla u)$ on a bounded domain $Ω$. We give details on the similarities of these dynamics in the cases $d=1$, $d=2$ and $d\geq 3$ and in the corresponding cases $Ω=(0,1)$, $Ω=\mathbb{T}^1$ and dim($Ω$)$\geq 2$ respectively. In addition to the beauty of such a correspondence, this could serve as a guideline for future research on the dynamics of parabolic equations.
Intermediality and the incommunicable : musical memory in Willa Cather's My Àntonia
Creators: name: Frim, Christine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: In My Ántonia’s final sentence, narrator Jim Burden describes the past as “precious” and “incommunicable,” suggesting that the novel confronts the problem of communicating memory and its subjective value (MÀ 196). One critical paradigm simply asks, “How does one share what cannot be communicated?” (Tellefsen 232). This thesis refocuses My Àntonia’s paradox of “communicating the incommunicable” to the limitations of what literature can communicate as a medium. It considers music as an alternative mode of communication in Jim’s memoir. The permanence of literature, combined with the temporality of music, enables him to capture his memories while conveying their transience. Therefore, analyzing My Àntonia’s intermedial form offers insight into how Jim addresses paradoxes of time, memory, and communication. I reconsider My Àntonia as a work of art or affect, giving special attention to Jim’s artistic process. Building upon Jeffrey Swenson’s assertion that Jim takes “memories of his immigrant friends and set[s] them into […] classical modes,” I demonstrate how Jim uses intertextuality and intermediality as artistic tools to aggrandize his memories (25). He maps Ántonia onto Vergil’s Muse: a method to instill symbolic value. Through intertextuality, she becomes a timeless inspirational figure. Additionally, many of Jim’s memories are described through musical metaphors or occur alongside dances, shows, or plays. Intermediality in the form of musicalized prose is a hyperbolic strategy to communicate incommunicable emotion. Levinasian and Deleuzoguattarian aesthetic theory provide the conceptual framework to explain how Jim makes his art objectively moving. His memoir, an image, is more impactful than reality because it is crafted with what I argue is “rhythm,” an aesthetic force that occurs “in the in-between,” permeates the reader’s senses, and affects their emotions (Levinas 4, ATP 313). By combining multisensory imagery and intermediality, his memoir forces interaction between the five senses and two media, thereby generating rhythm. Through a critical lens combining intermedial studies and aesthetic theory, I argue that My Ántonia is a musical-literary memoir that communicates Jim’s axiological beliefs regarding ephemeral beauty and value. Ultimately, this thesis claims that Jim uses technical intermediality to convert subjective emotional significance into an objectively moving piece of art.

description: Maps depicting different types of standardized data densities, general ratios/rates, and proportions/percentages are displayed as planimetric projections of continuous or discrete surfaces. However, these standardized data often have sub-layers that are used in compiling a final surface being mapped such as sub-layers stacked on top of one another, or sub-layers used to compute rates and percentages. In this study, we propose an interactive transect tool that allows the user to explore beneath the final surface to describe the patterns of these sub-layers. The tool was developed as a Python add-in for ArcGIS. This package provides two different representations of the cross-sections, a stacked profile tool and a line graph tool, for users to choose based on the type of surface and the purpose of the exploratory analysis. The illustrated applications of the transect tool include exploring the constituent layers of density surfaces, comparing different probability density surfaces, resolving the visual equalization issue for ratio surfaces, and interpreting the spatial patterns of areal classes. An empirical test finds that the transect tool is somewhat more time-efficient than when making visual comparison of values and more accurate in detecting the rank orderings of these values. Overall, it has potential as a visualization tool for multivariate spatial exploratory analysis.

description: We report on theoretical study of second harmonic generation in graphene. Phenomenological analysis based on symmetry arguments is carried out. It is demontrated, that in ideal graphene samples second harmonic generation is possible only if the radiation wave vector or its magnetic field is taken into account. Microscopic theory is developed for the classical regime of radiation interaction with electrons, where photon energy is much smaller than the charge carriers characteristic energy. It is demonstrated, that the emitted radiation can be strongly circularly polarized for the linearly polarized incident wave.

Combinatorial properties of maps on finite posets
Creators: name: Chan, Brian Tianyao
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: In this thesis, we make progress on the problem of enumerating tableaux on non-classical shapes by introducing a general family of P-partitions that we call periodic P-partitions. Such a family of P-partitions generalizes the parallelogramic shapes, which were analysed by L´opez, Mart´ınez, P´erez, P´erez, Basova, Sun, Tewari, and van Willigenburg, and certain truncated shifted shapes, where truncated shifted shapes were investigated by Adin, King, Roichman, and Panova. By introducing a separation property for posets and by proving a relationship between this property and P-partitions, we prove that periodic P-partitions can be enumerated with a homogeneous first-order matrix difference equation. Afterwards, we consider families of finite sets that we call shellable and that have been characterized by Chang and by Hirst and Hughes as being the families of sets that admit unique solutions to Hall’s marriage problem. By introducing constructions on families of sets that satisfy Hall’s Marriage Condition, and by using a combinatorial analogue of a shelling order, we prove that shellable families can be characterized by using a generalized notion of hook-lengths. Then, we introduce a natural generalization of standard skew tableaux and Edelman and Greene’s balanced tableaux, then prove an existence result about such a generalization using our characterization of shellable families.

description: Consumer behavior in white goods purchases has evolved significantly with the rise of digital marketing. This study analyzes the influence of social media, online advertisements, and influencer marketing on consumer decisions in Coimbatore City. The research examines key factors such as brand awareness, promotional offers, and digital engagement that drive purchase behavior. A structured questionnaire was used to collect responses from 100 consumers, and statistical tools like the Friedman ranking test and chi-square analysis were applied to interpret the findings. The results indicate that social media promotions and online ads play a crucial role in shaping consumer preferences, while influencer marketing has a relatively lower impact. The study highlights the importance of targeted marketing strategies and personalized promotions in influencing purchasing decisions. The findings provide valuable insights for businesses to optimize their digital marketing efforts and enhance customer engagement.
An optimal path to transition in a duct

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper is concerned with the transition of the laminar flow in a duct of square cross-section. Like in the similar case of the pipe flow, the motion is linearly stable for all Reynolds numbers, rendering this flow a suitable candidate for a study of the 'bypass' path to turbulence. It has already been shown \citep{Biau_JFM_2008} that the classical linear optimal perturbation problem, yielding optimal disturbances in the form of longitudinal vortices, fails to provide an 'optimal' path to turbulence, i.e. optimal perturbations do not elicit a significant nonlinear response from the flow. Previous simulations have also indicated that a pair of travelling waves generates immediately, by nonlinear quadratic interactions, an unstable mean flow distortion, responsible for rapid breakdown. By the use of functions quantifying the sensitivity of the motion to deviations in the base flow, the 'optimal' travelling wave associated to its specific defect is found by a variational approach. This optimal solution is then integrated in time and shown to display a qualitative similarity to the so-called 'minimal defect', for the same parameters. Finally, numerical simulations of a 'edge state' are conducted, to identify an unstable solution which mediates laminar-turbulent transition and relate it to results of the optimisation procedure.

description: Purpose: Those travelling overseas for work or leisure including male expatriates, longer-term and frequent travellers (ELoFTs) may be at heightened risk for a range of health and wellbeing issues. Social support may mediate this risk. However, from a public health perspective, little is written about how ELoFTs access health information and support and the role of their social networks in facilitating health and wellbeing outcomes. This research was part of a study examining social network processes of Australian male ELoFTs travelling, living, or working in Southeast Asia (SEA). Methods: Symbolic Interactionism and Grounded Theory were the conceptual framework and methodology supporting semi-structured, in-depth interviews (n = 25) conducted in Australia and Thailand with Australian male ELoFTs to SEA, aged 18 years or older. Results: Findings highlight supports that assist ELoFT transition and adjustment to country of destination or manage their transnational experience. Influential places, people, and points in the migration journey mediated engagement with social support. Conclusions: ELoFT social networks and the support provided within them may provide a mechanism for intervention across a range of public health issues. Findings may support the development of policy and practice across industries charged with supporting successful ELoFT adjustment.

description: We compute cross sections for incoherent diffractive J/Psi production in lepton-nucleus deep inelastic scattering. The cross section is proportional to A in the dilute limit and to A^(1/3) in the black disc limit, with a large nuclear suppression due to saturation effects. The t-dependence of the cross section, if it can be measured accurately enough, is sensitive to the impact parameter profile of the gluons in the nucleus and their fluctuations, a quantity that determines the initial conditions of a relativistic heavy ion collision. The nuclear suppression in incoherent diffraction shows how the transverse spatial distribution of the gluons in the nucleus gradually becomes smoother at high energy. Since the values of the momentum transfer |t| involved are relatively large, this process should be easier to measure in future nuclear DIS experiments than coherent diffraction.

description: We apply the Thermal Field Theory (TFT) methods to study the propagation of photons in a plasma wire, that is, a system in which the electrons are confined to a one-dimensional tube or wire, but are otherwise free. We find the appropriate expression for the photon \emph{free-field} propagator in such a medium, and write down the dispersion relation in terms of the free-field propagator and the photon self-energy. The self-energy is then calculated in the one-loop approximation and the corresponding dispersion relation is determined and studied in some detail. Our work differs from previous work on this subject in that we do not adopt any specific electronic wave functions in the coordinates that are transverse to the idealized wire, or rely on particular features of the electronic structure. We treat the electrons as a free gas of particles, constrained to move in one dimension, but otherwise in a model-independent way only following the rules of TFT adapted to the situation at hand. For the appropriate conditions of the plasma the \emph{static approximation} can be employed and the dispersion relation reduces to the results obtained in previous works, but the formula that we obtain is valid under more general conditions, including those in which the static approximation is not valid. In particular, the dispersion relation has several branches, which are not revealed if the static approximation is used. The dispersion relations obtained reproduce several unique features of these systems that have been observed in recent experiments.

description: Semiclassical methods are used to study the nonlinear interaction of light in vacuum in the context of four wave mixing. This study is motivated by a desire to investigate the possibility of using recently developed powerful ultrashort (femtosecond) laser pulses to demonstrate the existence of nonlinear effects in vacuum, predicted by quantum electrodynamics (QED). An approach, similar to classical nonlinear optics in a medium, is developed in this article. A third-order nonlinear effective susceptibility of vacuum is then introduced.

description: È stata svolta l’analisi e la valutazione del sistema di produzione e rilavorazione aziendale, al fine di ottimizzare le risorse, diminuire le tempistiche di lavorazione e sfruttare al meglio le capacità del personale, ottimizzando così l’intero processo produttivo, con lo scopo ultimo di abbassare i costi di produzione e smaltimento ed aumentare la produttività ed eventualmente la qualità del prodotto diminuendo le non conformità. L’analisi ha riportato un aumento di produttività notevole rispetto alla situazione precedente, tuttavia ha rilevato quelle che sono le tipologie di problematiche attuali. Per ovviare queste problematiche sono state proposte alcune modifiche: la prima legata ad una rivisitazione completa del layout e la seconda riguarda un nuovo tipo di protocollo e valutazione della metodica operativa. Di questa seconda modifica è già stato fatto uno studio preliminare su un particolare prodotto, il Deo roll-on 2x50 ml, che ha portato ad una diminuzione del tempo di produzione del 10%.

description: We explore the superhorizon generation of large fnl of the local form in two field inflation. We calculate the two- and three-point observables in a general class of potentials which allow for an analytic treatment using the delta N formalism. Motivated by the conservation of the curvature perturbation outside the horizon in the adiabatic mode and also by the observed adiabaticity of the power spectrum, we follow the evolution of fnl^{local} until it is driven into the adibatic solution by passing through a phase of effectively single field inflation. We find that although large fnl^{local} may be generated during inflation, such non-gaussianities are transitory and will be exponentially damped as the cosmological fluctuations approach adiabaticity.

The generalized Newton's law of gravitation versus the general theory of relativity
Creators: name: Arbab, A. I.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Einstein general theory of relativity (GTR) accounted well for the precession of the perihelion of planets and binary pulsars. While the ordinary Newton law of gravitation failed, a generalized version yields similar results. We have shown here that these effects can be accounted for as due to the existence of gravitomagnetism only, and not necessarily due to the curvature of space time. Or alternatively, gravitomagnetism is equivalent to a curved space-time. The precession of the perihelion of planets and binary pulsars may be interpreted as due to the spin of the orbiting planet ($m$) about the Sun ($M$)\,. The spin ($S$) of planets is found to be related to their orbital angular momentum ($L$) by a simple formula, \emph{viz}., $S\propto \,\frac{m}{M}L$\,.

description: In a trapped atomic Fermi gas, one can tune continuously via a Feshbach resonance the effective pairing interaction between fermionic atoms from very weak to very strong. As a consequence, the low temperature superfluidity evolves continuously from the BCS type in the weak interaction limit to that of Bose-Einstein condensation in the strong pairing limit, exhibiting a BCS-BEC crossover. In this paper, we review recent experimental progress in atomic Fermi gases which elucidates the nature of the superfluid phase as the interaction is continuously tuned. Of particular interest is the intermediate or crossover regime where the $s$-wave scattering length diverges. We will present an intuitive pairing fluctuation theory, and show that this theory is in quantitative agreement with existing experiments in cold atomic Fermi gases.

description: To identify the coping strategies used by family caregivers of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) in Switzerland in order to develop tailored support programs. Purposive sample of >18 years participants, speaking an official Swiss language fluently, being family caregivers of persons with SCI for at least 4 years, and perceiving either a high or low burden in relation to caregiving. Data were collected through face-to-face semi-structured interviews (N = 22). Thematic analysis was performed. Four main coping strategies were identified: reappraisal, active acceptance, setting limits to the caregiver role, and seeking support. These strategies can be used one at a time or combined, and at different times of a caregiver pathway. Our analysis highlighted that caregivers need skills to implement these strategies (e.g., self-evaluation skills). Caregivers of persons with SCI develop cognitive coping strategies to make sense of the situation and establish a “new normal” and problem-focused coping strategies to deal with their new tasks and role. These strategies do not seem to be typical only of SCI caregivers. Hence, interventions that worked for caregivers in other fields could be adapted. Rehabilitation centers should systematically integrate programs targeted to caregivers into their offerings.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONHealthcare systems need to develop educational and support measures for both persons with a health condition and their caregivers.Caregivers should become long-term partners in rehabilitation and a regular and structured needs assessment should be offered.Interventions that worked for caregivers in other fields can be adapted to support also caregivers in SCI.Educational and support programs dedicated to caregivers should teach not only how to perform caregiving tasks but also how to balance between responding to the care recipient’s needs and their own needs.

Effect of pulp mill fly ash and calcium bentonite on the mechanical and microstructural behavior of organic soil from Alberta, Canada
Creators: name: Pokharel, Bigul
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The high compressibility and low shear strength characteristics of organic soil are significant challenges for the infrastructure development in Canada and across the world as well. This research investigated the use of pulp mill fly ash (PFA), alkaline activator and calcium bentonite (Ca-bentonite) to improve the engineering behaviour of the organic soil consisting of 26% organic matter, obtained from the wetlands in Wabasca region, Northern Alberta, Canada. Cementitious materials such as lime, and Portland cement have been successfully used to improve the engineering properties of problematic mineral soils having low organic content. However, limited studies have been devoted to stabilization of organic soils commonly encountered in forested regions of Canada. Series of fall cone tests and one dimensional oedometer tests were carried out to evaluate the effect of PFA, alkaline activator and Ca-bentonite on the engineering behaviour of the stabilized organic soil. In addition to fall cone and oedometer tests, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) test were conducted on regular and stabilized organic soil to analysis the change in microstructure and chemical components of the soil after stabilization. The results showed that the strength and compressibility behavior of the organic soil can be improved when treated with PFA and Ca-bentonite. Moreover, a potential large settlement of the organic soil can be reduced by adding PFA and Ca-bentonite to the organic soil. The amount of secondary compression index (Cα) was decreased significantly when compared to untreated organic soil, indicating that the PFA and Ca-bentonite stabilizer can effectively improve the creep behavior of organic soil. However, within the scope of this work, use of alkaline activator did not show any improvement in engineering behavior of the stabilized organic soil. This study implies that beneficial utilization of PFA and Ca- bentonite for stabilization of soil organic matter in forests and lowlands could be a practical step towards environmentally sound management of this waste byproduct.
