Some parabolic and elliptic problems in complex Riemannian geometry
Creators: name: Guo, Bin
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: This dissertation consists of three parts, the first one is on the blow-up behavior of K"ahler Ricci flow on $cp^n$ blown-up at one point, and the second one on the convergence of K"ahler Ricci flow on minimal projective manifolds of general type, and the last one is on the existence of canonical conical K"ahler metrics on toric manifolds.    In the first part, we consider the Ricci flow on $cp^n$ blown-up at one point starting with any rotationally symmetric K"ahler metric. We show that if the total volume does not go to zero at the singular time, then any parabolic blow-up limit of the Ricci flow along the exceptional divisor is a non-compact complete shrinking K"ahler Ricci soliton with rotational symmetry on $mathbb C^n$ blown-up at one point, hence the FIK soliton constructed in cite{FIK}.    In the second part, we consider the K"ahler Ricci flow on a smooth minimal model of general type, following the ideas of Song (cite{S1,S2}), we show that if the Ricci curvature is uniformly bounded below along the K"ahler-Ricci flow, then the diameter is uniformly bounded. As a corollary we show that under the Ricci curvature lower bound assumption, the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of the flow is homeomorphic to the canonical model of the manifold. Moreover, we will give a purely analytic proof of a recent result of Tosatti-Zhang (cite{TZ}) that if the canonical line bundle $K_X$ is big and nef, but not ample, then the Ricci flow is of Type IIb.    In the last part, we give criterion for the existence of toric conical K"ahler-Einstein and K"ahler-Ricci soliton metrics on any toric manifold in relation to the greatest Ricci lower bound and Bakry-Emery-Ricci lower bound. It is shown that any two toric manifolds with the same dimension can be joined by a continuous path of toric manifolds with conical K"ahler-Einstein metrics in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology.

Contenders and Learning

description: In Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky, 1993), the effect of running an input form through the phonological grammar is typically illustrated with a tableau showing that a particular output is more harmonic than a set of alternative candidates. But could a finite set of losing candidates ever suffice to prove that one candidate was optimal among the infinite range of possible competitors? The answer is yes, if the candidates under consideration are the set of contenders: those that could win under some permutation of the constraints in the grammar. This is so because, as Samek-Lodovici and Prince (1999) have shown, if a candidate is more harmonic than all non-harmonically-bounded competitors (the contenders) it is more harmonic than all possible competitors.I present here an algorithm that takes an input and a set of constraints and generates the set of contenders. This algorithm brings together Ellison’s (1994) finite state approach to optimization and the inconsistency detecting capability of Tesar’s (1995) recursive constraint demotion algorithm thereby making it possible to generate the entire set of contenders in a single derivation without needing to perform factorially many checks of the range of possible constraint rankings.The ability to generate the contenders has important ramifications for learning in OT, for they are exactly the candidates whose failure the learner must account for. Access to the set of contenders allows significant improvements over error driven learning algorithms because the learner is able to compare an observed datum with all of the alternative contenders rather than just the single hypothetical candidate generated by the learner’s current ranking. In this sense, access to the contenders makes each datum maximally informative. Moreover, because the set of contenders does not depend on the learner’s current ranking hypothesis, the learner cannot get stuck in a loop and return to an incorrect hypothesis after it has been eliminated. With the contenders, learning can proceed by simply taking the union of the ranking entailments for observed data rather than by the piece by piece reranking of constraints. This makes it unnecessary to call on an independent mechanism to identify more ‘restrictive’ rankings in cases where multiple rerankings would derive the observed datum.

Investigation of physico-chemical properties of lipid-based excipients in a hot-melt fluid bed coating process
Creators: name: Hate, Siddhi Santosh

description: Fluidized bed coating process is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. In the case of lipid-based excipients as a coating material, the coating process requires an additional operation of melting the coating material prior to its application. Thus the process is said to be a hot melt fluid bed coating process. The objective of this study is to understand the hot-melt fluid bed coating process for coating of lipid-based excipients onto drug crystals to produce orally disintegrating granules. Orally disintegrating granules are a ‘direct to mouth’ dosage form and offers better patient compliance by making it easier to swallow the medication in the form of granules. However, for such dosage form, it is imperative to have a drug product with an immediate release profile and a good taste masking to mask the unpleasant taste of the active ingredient. In this work, a parametric study using a fractional factorial design of experiments was carried out to understand the influence of process parameters on thickness of the coating layer, dissolution rate of the API and taste masking ability of the coating material. With the help of analysis of the factorial design, an optimal design space to achieve desired quality of the drug product was found. In this work, in addition to the parametric study, an experimental study to understand polymorphism of the coating layer was also performed. Lipids tend to exhibit polymorphism. The presence of an unstable crystal form in the product may result in storage instabilities and in turn affect the dissolution rate of the drug. Therefore, the influence of fluidization air temperature and emulsifier content on polymorphism of the coating layer was studied in detail. Thermal analysis of the coated granules helped understand the melting and crystallization behavior of different polymorphs exhibited by the coating layer. The results of this work suggests that a more detailed investigation of kinetics of crystallization and phase transformation of lipids is required for its application as a coating material for pharmaceutical products.

A cost-effectiveness framework to evaluate a predictive companion diagnostics of selecting men with high risk localized prostate cancer for neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy in the u.s.
Creators: name: He, Jimmy
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer (HRLPC) are difficult to manage. They are at high risk of recurrence, metastasis, or even early death. The standard of care (SOC) has been the same for many years.  Chemotherapy is being actively tested in clinical trials for HRLPC patients. Since chemotherapy is associated with cytotoxicity, a treatment strategy with companion diagnostics (CDX) is needed to choose chemo respondents. The objective of this study is to build a cost-effectiveness framework to analyze the economic value of CDX to select HRLPC patients for chemotherapy.  An area under the curve cost-effectiveness model, which considers three treatment strategies, i.e., treating all patients with SOC, treating all patients with chemo, or selectively treating with chemotherapy with assistance of a CDX (personalized medicine), was constructed. Data inputs were drawn primarily from a database analysis based on the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)-Medicare Database in conjunction with secondary data based on literature reviews. Overall, 24,094 HRLPC patients receiving active treatments between 1990 and 2011 were identified. Metastasis-free survival, overall survival, and cost patterns were analyzed for the entire cohort as well as subgroups. Cost-effectiveness measures including incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were calculated. Both one-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were conducted to understand the effect of data inputs on cost-effectiveness results.   If a generic chemotherapy provided meaningful clinical benefits and was administrated for only 6-month treatment, and if the companion diagnostics test was given free of charge, it was cost-effective to treat HRLPC patients using both strategies, including treating all with chemotherapy and personalized medicine versus SOC. The personalized treatment strategy was the most cost-effective choice. The result was highly sensitive to treatment duration, effectiveness, treatment costs, as well as assumptions of CDX (prevalence, sensitivity, and specificity). A diagnostic manufacturer could charge a reasonable price for the companion diagnostics test consistent with current pricing practice.  This study provides an analytical tool to understand the economic value of an effective treatment and its companion diagnostics. Various simulations indicated that personalized treatment strategy is always preferred. The model can be extended to analyze the value of CDX in broader cancer diseases settings.
Stability results in additive combinatorics and graph theory
Creators: name: Herdade, Simao
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: A general problem in Extremal Combinatorics asks about the maximum size of a collection of finite objects satisfying certain restrictions, and an ideal solution to it presents to you the objects which attain the maximum size.     In several problems, it is the case that any large set satisfying the given property must be similar to  one of the few extremal examples.    Such stability results give us a complete understanding of the problem, and also make the result more flexible to be applied as a tool in other mathematical problems.      Stability results in additive combinatorics and graph theory constitute the main topic of this thesis, in which  we solve a question of  Erdös and Sarközy on sums of integers, and reprove a conjecture of Posa and Seymour on powers of hamiltonian cycles.     Along the way we prove stronger structural statements that have as a corollary the optimal solution to these problems. We also introduce a counting technique  and two graph theory tools which we believe to be of great interest in their own right.  Namely the Shifting Method, the Connecting Lemma, and a robust version of the classic Erdos-Stone Simonovits theorem.
Luminescent metal-organic frameworks for chemical sensing and solid-state lighting
Creators: name: Hu, Zhichao
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) are crystalline solids constructed via self-assembly of metal cations and organic ligands. The organic ligands often contain aromatic moieties that are subject to excitation, giving rise to optical emission upon irradiation. Utilizing this ligand-based emission, the applications of LMOFs to chemical sensing and solid-state lighting are explored.     LMOFs’ tunable porosity (non-porous LMOFs are not the focus of this study) and easy-to-functionalize surface enable them to selectively capture targeted analytes. By monitoring the changes in their optical emission profiles caused by strong guest-host interactions, the accurate identification of analytes is achieved. The electron and energy transfer mechanisms which govern the fluorescence signal transduction are also studied by a combination of experimental and computational (density functional theory or DFT) approaches.    LMOFs are also strong candidates as rare-earth-free phosphors for solid-state lighting. The immobilization of molecular chromophores into rigid LMOF backbones inhibits the non-radiative decay caused by ligand rotation, vibration, and torsion, therefore enhances the quantum efficiency of the resulting compounds. The prescreening of the electronic properties of molecular chromophores through a computational (DFT) method facilitates the design of LMOF phosphors with desired emissions.    Overall, LMOFs’ applications to chemical sensing and solid-state lighting are studied; the sensing mechanisms and principles of designing LMOF phosphors are also addressed.

Imagining armies

description: This dissertation presents a study of the reconstruction (and subsequent partial disintegration) of the armed forces of Iraq after 2003 as it relates to the larger problematic of state formation and legitimation in contested spaces.  The national army, as opposed to paramilitary and police forces, emerged over time as an institution of singular importance in the struggle for Iraq after 2003.  Iraq’s new rulers, who otherwise lacked prestige and deeply rooted political support within their own country, sought to appropriate the memory of the old Iraqi Army in order to claim their place as the rightful inheritors of state power.  With this inheritance, they claimed, came the legitimate authority to use military force in defense of the new Iraqi state.    I traced the development of Iraq’s new armed forces using interviews, archival sources, mass media reports, and photographs, to show how the symbols of Iraq’s militarist past were used by a new regime to bestow a reimagined Iraqi national identity upon military forces raised under foreign occupation and tutelage.  My findings challenge the conventional wisdom that state formation in conflict zones of the developing world proceeds directly from a massive military buildup of government forces.   Rather, it is the capacity of rulers to credibly sustain claims that their forces represent the nation and the state, which is most important to establishing a monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory.

Green infrastructure practices

description: As global urbanization continues to expand cities, the systems that operate in the background to allow cities to function are being stressed.  Water management systems in particular are a growing concern in the United States.  Water quality and quantity are becoming increasingly significant issues as global climate change is producing unprecedented drought and flood periods across the world.  The nation’s traditional combined sewer overflow (CSO) systems for storm and wastewater are aging, outdated, and overburdened due to rapid urbanization and vast impervious surface coverage.  The alternative to traditional “hard, gray” infrastructure systems engineered by humans are known as “soft” or “green” infrastructure, which instead integrates plants and landscapes into built environments for a variety of structural, aesthetic, and community services and benefits.  Studies continue to prove that using green infrastructure systems to help manage stormwater runoff is a viable, long-term, cost-effective solution for communities that suffer from frequent flood, rainfall, or combined sewer overflow events.  The following research focuses on New Brunswick, New Jersey, a colonial-era city that  experiences frequent flooding as a result of the nearby Raritan River.  Target sites for green infrastructure intervention are determined through geographic information system (GIS) analyses, historical data, and direct observation of water-related problems.  A variety of best management practices (BMPs) are proposed for each target site, followed by conceptual designs and estimated evaluations of the proposed best management practice’s impact.  This document will serve as a book and model for similar cities to help address their stormwater management issues in a sustainable, efficient manner.
Addressing challenges and gaps in the hand hygiene literature using novel quantitative approaches

description: This research was undertaken to develop a cause and effect understanding of the variables that affect hand washing, a critical facet in food safety and public health. Many regulations appear to have been made without sufficient scientific foundational evidence to back up justify these regulations, because of this, many basic aspects of handwashing are still being debated.  The studies in this dissertation attempted to clarify several main concepts in hand washing.  Specifically, which parts of a hand wash are most important, is soap necessary for a hand wash, handwash communication consistent, what characteristics of the surfactant are important for soap formulation, and what is the current state of hand sanitizer published literature.      Chapter II main finding was that handwash techniques communicated by signs and posters varies greatly.  Chapter III is a meta-analysis of the published hand sanitizer literature, and had several key findings. First, a significant difference between ethanol and isopropanol based hand sanitizer effectiveness for bacteria (p=<0.05), but not for viruses (p>0.05) was observed. Second, alcohol-based hand sanitizers were more effective (p<0.05) than those based on other antimicrobials for bacteria, but the same statistical difference was not observed for viruses (p>0.05).  Finally, different experimental protocols return significantly different results (p<0.05), and care must be taken when comparing hand sanitizer studies.  Chapters IV and V focused on handwash technique and soap use, which found that hand lathering time, soap volume, and water temperature did not significantly change the microbial reduction from the handwash (p>0.05), but that drying method, use of soap, and total wash time did (p<0.05).  Lastly, Chapter VI results suggest that soap formulations, specifically the type and concentration of surfactant used, has a significant influence (p<0.05) on the effectiveness of a soap product.  These results from these studies will be used in future risk modeling and soap product development to ideally promote better formulation, better hand wash compliance, and evidenced based hand hygiene regulations.

Cognitive resources of physics experts

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: One important goal of physics education is to help students develop reasoning patterns similar to those of expert physicists. To achieve this goal, physics educators must know what makes physics experts so successful at solving challenging physics problems. However, this dimension of physics expertise has not been fully explored by the physics education research (PER) community. In this dissertation, I describe several studies I have conducted that further the PER community’s understanding of physics expertise. In these studies, I investigate how expert physicists reason as they solve unfamiliar, challenging physics problems by using a resource-based model of cognition to analyze videotaped recordings of problem solving sessions. By developing a way to determine when experts are making conceptual breakthroughs I analyze what resources experts use during conceptual breakthroughs. In the first study, I show that physics conceptual breakthroughs are characterized by reasoning which combines resources related to intuitive knowledge, higher level physics based conceptual knowledge, and epistemological knowledge. In the second study, I develop a way to reliably code for epistemological resources and determine what epistemological resources experts rely on most during conceptual breakthroughs. My findings show that experts rely on contrasting cases more often than any other epistemological resource. In the third study, I use variation theory to investigate how experts use contrasting cases. I look for patterns across all instances when experts use contrasting cases to make a conceptual breakthrough and show how scientific epistemology can be used to better understand experts’ use of contrasting cases. I discuss how the findings of each study can be used to inform physics education.

Earthquake loss estimation study for Monmouth County, New Jersey: geologic component

description: Geologic, topographic, and test-boring data were acquired and analyzed in order to map seismic soil class, liquefaction susceptibility, and landslide susceptibility for Monmouth County (see map plates at end of document). The soil class, liquefaction susceptibility, and landslide susceptibility data were entered into the HAZUS earthquake-simulation model for each census tract in the county (Appendix A). The HAZUS model was run with these upgraded geologic data for earthquakes with magnitudes of 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, and 7, with epicenters at the county centroid. As a comparison, the HAZUS model was run with its prepackaged geologic data (referred to henceforth as default data) at magnitudes of 5.5 and 6. The HAZUS model was also run for expected ground motion with return periods of 500, 1000, and 2500 years, based on probabilistic analysis of regional earthquake history. Each of these runs was made with both upgraded and default geologic data. Selected outputs from these runs are attached in Appendices B through T.Soils over most of Monmouth County are equal to or weaker than the default classification, so damage estimates from runs using upgraded geology are greater than from runs using default geology. In a few census tracts damage is greater with the upgraded geology because soils are more prone to liquefaction, and hillslopes are more prone to landslides, than indicated by default data. Total economic loss ranges from a low of $0.6B at M5 to a high of $53B at M7. Damage and economic loss for an M5 earthquake at the county centroid are similar to those from the 1000-year return period probabilistic run, indicating that there is a 5% chance of an M5 earthquake occurring in the county in any 50 year period, based on the history of known earthquakes in the region.In addition to the HAZUS data upgrades and runs, shear-wave velocity was measured on five soil types (Cape May Formation, Cohansey Formation, Kirkwood Formation, sand bedrock, and clay bedrock) at a total of 15 locations (Appendix U). These measurements were made to check the soil-class assignments, which use test-drilling data as a proxy for shear-wave velocity. The measured velocities generally confirmed the assignments.

Geologic component of the earthquake loss estimation study for Morris County, New Jersey

description: Geologic, topographic, and test-boring data were acquired and analyzed in order to map seismic soil class, liquefaction susceptibility, and landslide susceptibility for Morris County (maps folded in pocket). The soil class, liquefaction susceptibility, and landslide susceptibility data were entered into the HAZUS earthquake-simulation model for each census tract in the county (Appendix A). The HAZUS model was run with these upgraded geologic data for earthquake magnitudes of 5.5 and 6. As a comparison, the HAZUS model was run with its prepackaged geologic data (referred to henceforth as default data) at the same magnitudes. To assess the effect of landslides, runs were also made with full upgraded geology and with upgraded geology without landslide hazard for magnitudes 5.5, 6, and 7. Selected outputs from these runs are attached in Appendices B through K. The upgraded geology changed both the spatial distribution of damage and the total damage estimates compared to default geology. The upgraded geology produced greater building damage in the eastern part of the county, where glacial-lake and alluvial soils are more liquefiable, and, in places, more prone to shaking, than the default, and less building damage in most other areas, where till, bedrock, weathered bedrock, and hillslope deposits are stronger than the default and have low liquefaction susceptibility. Landslide susceptibility has no effect on damage at any magnitude at the censustract level of analysis, but is a potential hazard on certain hillslopes.In addition to the HAZUS data upgrades and runs, shear-wave velocity was measured on four soil types (weathered gneiss, gneiss colluvium, till of Illinoian age, and till of pre-Illinoian age) at a total of 12 locations. These measurements were made to check the soil-class assignments, which use test-drilling data as a proxy for shear-wave velocity. The measured velocities confirmed the assignments.

description: The City of Elizabeth is an 11.6 square-mile urban community located in eastern Union County. It is the seat of County government and contains Union County College, Newark Liberty International Airport and the Port Elizabeth/Newark Marine Terminal. The length of the City is traversed by the NJ Turnpike and US Routes 1&9. New Jersey Routes 27, 28 and 81 provide intra-regional access to and from the City.The City of Elizabeth was incorporated in 1855. At the time of its incorporation, the City’s population was 8,978. Since then, the City has grown to 123,215 residents (2003). The City is grouped by informal historic districts, including but not limited to, The Port, Peterstown, Keighry Head, Elmora, and the North End. The City is nearly fully developed, and mainly comprised of high density residential neighborhoods, central business and neighborhood business districts, and industrial development mainly located near the airport and marine terminal and the I-278 area.This Master Plan seeks to update planning information in the City with regard to demographics, land use, housing, circulation and the Plan’s relationship to other applicable plans, and contains a Land Use Plan Element, Housing Plan Element, Circulation Plan Element, Recycling Plan Element and a comparison of this Master Plan to those of adjacent municipalities, the County and the State Development and Redevelopment Plan (SDRP). The current City of Elizabeth Master Plan was adopted in 1990 and was reexamined in 2003. This document serves as an update of the required portions of the municipal Master Plan.
