description: There are mutually contradictory views in the literature of the kinematics and structure of high-ionization line (e.g. CIV) emitting regions in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Two kinds of broad emission line region (BELR) models have been proposed, outflow and gravitationally bound BELR, which are supported respectively by blueshift of the CIV line and reverberation mapping observations. To reconcile these two apparently different models, we present a detailed comparison study between the CIV and MgII lines using a sample of AGNs selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We find that the kinematics of the CIV region is different from that of MgII, which is thought to be controlled by gravity. A strong correlation is found between the blueshift and asymmetry of the CIV profile and the Eddington ratio. This provides strong observational support for the postulation that the outflow is driven by radiation pressure. In particular, we find robust evidence that the CIV line region is largely dominated by outflow at high Eddington ratios, while it is primarily gravitationally bounded at low Eddington ratios. Our results indicate that these two emitting regions coexist in most of AGNs. The emission strength from these two gases varies smoothly with Eddington ratio in opposite ways. This explanation naturally reconciles the apparently contradictory views proposed in previous studies. Finally, candidate models are discussed which can account for both, the enhancement of outflow emission and suppression of normal BEL, in AGN with high Eddington ratios.

description: Non-invasive right ventricular (RV) myocardial work (RVMW) is the latest indicator used to assess RV function. Nevertheless, the physiological determinants of RVMW have not been studied, and reference ranges for normal RVMW indices have yet to be established. A total of 263 healthy volunteers (median age: 34 years, males: 38%) were prospectively enrolled. RVMW indices were analysed by an RV pressure-strain loop (RVPSL) in specific software. The lowest values of the RVMW indices in males and females were 133 mmHg% and 206 mmHg% for RV global work index (RVGWI), 165 mmHg% and 241 mmHg% for RV global constructive work (RVGCW) and 78% and 83% for RV global work efficiency (RVGWE), respectively. The highest values for RV global wasted work (RVGWW) in males and females were 67 mmHg% and 69 mmHg%, respectively. RVGWI and RVGCW were significantly lower in males than those in females. RVGWW significantly increased with age in males and females. RVGWE significantly decreased with age in females. Multivariable analysis revealed that RVGWI, RVGCW and RVGWE increased as pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) increased. Normal reference values of non-invasive RVMW were obtained by echocardiography. Quantitative data on RVMW could be essential in clinical work and clinical experiments.

description: Micromagnetic simulations are used to examine the effects of cubic and axial anisotropy, magnetostatic interactions and temperature on M-H loops for a collection of magnetic dipoles on fcc and sc lattices. We employ a simple model of interacting dipoles that represent single-domain particles in an attempt to explain recent experimental data on ordered arrays of magnetoferritin nanoparticles that demonstrate the crucial role of interactions between particles in a fcc lattice. Significant agreement between the simulation and experimental results is achieved, and the impact of intra-particle degrees of freedom and surface effects on thermal fluctuations are investigated.

The choice theory and the right to life: capital punishment, abortion and euthanasia

Subjects: classificationCode: 399999
subject: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis deals with debate about the legitimacy of capital punishment, abortion and euthanasia. It adopts the two competing theories of rights - the will and the interest- to examine existing arguments, for the purpose of finding a fresh argument that can provide a legally robust answer to such debate. The thesis highlights the modern version of the will approach, namely the Choice Theory, which defines a right as a choice held by the right holder over the performance of the duty bearer.
 This thesis contends that all existing arguments regarding the debate can be interpreted as resting on certain accounts of the right to life, via the concept of a will, a choice, a benefit or an interest. When conceived in this way, weaknesses and strengths of the arguments, namely their ability or inability to reach definite, consistent and acceptable conclusions to the three practices in question, can be critiqued usefully. The best argument is therefore one that possesses merits of certainty, conclusiveness, consistency and acceptability; the thesis finds this to be one raised on the grounds of rights that implies a concept of the right to life as a choice. This leads to the conclusion that capital punishment, abortion and euthanasia all ought to be permitted, unless the law has otherwise incorporated a duty to the contrary. The Choice Theory proves to be the most reliable interpretation of the right to life as regards the legitimacy of the three issues.

Inter-core locality aware memory access scheduling
Creators: name: Li, Dongdong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) run thousands of parallel threads and achieve high Memory Level Parallelism (MLP). To support high MLP, a structure called a Miss-Status Holding Register (MSHR) handles multiple in-flight miss requests. When multiple cores send requests to the same cache line, the requests are merged into one last level cache MSHR entry and only one memory request is sent to the Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM). We call this inter-core locality. The main reason for inter-core locality is that multiple cores access shared read-only data within the same cache line. By prioritizing memory requests that have high inter-core locality, more threads resume execution. Many memory access scheduling policies have been proposed for general-purpose multi-core processors and GPUs. However, some of these policies do not consider the characteristic of GPUs and others do not utilize inter-core locality information. In this thesis, we analyze the reasons that inter-core locality exists and show that requests with more inter-core locality have a higher impact performance. To exploit inter-core locality, we enable the GPU DRAM controller to be aware of inter-core locality by using Level 2 (L2) cache MSHR information. We propose a memory scheduling policy to coordinate the last level cache MSHR and the DRAM controller. 1) We introduce a structure to enable the DRAM to be aware of L2 cache MSHR information. 2) We propose a memory scheduling policy to use L2 cache MSHR information. 3) To prevent starvation, we introduce age information to the scheduling policy. Our evaluation shows a 28% memory request latency reduction and an 11% performance improvement on the average for high inter-core locality benchmarks.

description: Micromagnetic simulation results on Co-based recording media are presented which examine the impact of a modified near-neighbor exchange interaction between grains of the form Jz(MizMjz), reflecting the hexagonal crystal symmetry. Both out-of-plane and in-plane M-H loops are calculated, with an emphasis on a model fit to data reported by Wang et al. [IEEE Trans. Magn. vol. 43, 682 (2007)] on exchange coupled composite perpendicular media. The principle effect of Jz is to increase the coercivity and slope of both hard and soft layers. Improved agreement with experimental data for the in-plane loops is achieved by assuming a substantial value for Jz. Possibilities for measurement of Jz through spin-wave excitations are discussed. Thermal fluctuation effects are also examined through simulations of the magnetization vs temperature.

Ground penetrating radar applied : a model for quantifying interpretation of human burials in historical contexts
Creators: name: Daniel, Stephen Edward
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This thesis explores the applied use of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology in conducting comprehensive burial survey work in historic period, post-contact cemeteries. These results are based on research conducted from 2008 to 2011 within several First Nations post-contact cemeteries along with work done in other less-defined burial sites in Southwestern British Columbia. My research has been informed by other types of GPR surveys conducted during that period and through 2015, that have added experience in GPR project management, data collection, trace signal analysis, interpretation and reporting. I have developed a recursive, interpretive model that creates a simple, direct and more objective process for evaluating any single or group of potential burial locations situated in a variety of physical contexts. The basic analysis is done by linking GPR signal results obtained from over 300 cases with either prior historical or field-work based knowledge of related ground surface, physical, ethnographic and documentary evidence. The model developed here quantifies the interpretative analysis of these data and develops what I refer to as a Burial Confidence Index (BCI) from a set of parameters or variables that reflects the full extent of our knowledge of any specific location. This allows for testing and statistical comparison of known versus previously unknown locations where GPR evidence is recovered. Other important aspects of GPR-related work in the community are also addressed in brief to provide more complete coverage of the many contexts involved, including professional, academic and social considerations.

description: It is shown that substitution of C or N for O recently proposed as a way to create ferromagnetism in otherwise nonmagnetic oxide insulators is curtailed by formation of impurity pairs, and the resultant C2 spin=1 dimers as well as the isoelectronic N2^{2+} interact antiferromagneticallly in p-type MgO. For C-doped ZnO, however, we demonstrate using the HSE hybrid functional that a resonance of the spin-polarized C2 ppπ* states with the host conduction band results in a long-range ferromagnetic interaction. Magnetism of open-shell impurity molecules is proposed as a possible route to d0-ferromagnetism in oxide spintronic materials.

description: Although an increasing number of protein complex structures have been determined using experimental methods, relatively fewer studies have been performed to determine the assembly order of complexes. Assembly order is practically useful for constructing subcomplexes as a step toward solving the entire complex experimentally, designing artificial protein complexes, and developing drugs that interrupt a critical step in the complex assembly. There are several experimental methods for determining the assembly order of complexes; however, these techniques are resource-intensive. Here, we present a computational method that predicts the assembly order of protein complexes by building the complex structure. The method, named Path-LzerD, uses a multimeric protein docking algorithm that assembles a protein complex structure from individual subunit structures and predicts assembly order by observing the simulated assembly process of the complex. As the first method of its kind, Path-LZerD opens a new area of computational protein structure modelling and will be an indispensable approach for studying protein complexes.

description: Two sterols and seven triterpenoids were isolated and identified from Ganoderma lucidum by silica gel column chromatography, preparative high-performance liquid chromatography and spectra analysis. Then, the multidrug resistance reversal activities of these compounds were assessed using MTT assay. Among these compounds, ganoderol B (3), ganoderone A (4), ganodermanondiol (6) and ganoderiol F (8) were shown to reverse the resistance of human oral epidermoid carcinoma cell line KBv200 to doxorubicin, and the reversal folds were 6.59, 4.70, 4.01 and 7.09, respectively. Ganoderiol F could increase the intracellular accumulation of doxorubicin in KBv200 cells through inhibiting P-glycoprotein transport function. Further mechanistic investigation found that ganoderiol F did not alter P-glycoprotein expression. In conclusion, ganoderiol F has potent effect in reversing P-glycoprotein mediated tumor multidrug resistance. Potential reversal agents against multidrug resistance in tumor may be found in triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum.

description: Perennial, no-food grasses have been proposed as the most efficient species for biomass production due to their natural resource use efficiency, agronomic, environmental and social benefits. Nitrogen requirement is a significant issue in intensive agriculture and greatly affects the energetic balance of crops. Hence, reduced nitrogen fertilizer by means of low input cropping systems could directly mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. In the present study long-term plantations of two perennial grasses (Arundo donax and Miscanthus x giganteus) grown in rainfed conditions under two nitrogen regimes were compared in terms of biomass yield and nitrogen use efficiency.

description: This study was on time management and teachers’ job performance in public secondary schools in Calabar Education Zone, Cross River State. The study adopted correlational survey research design and tested one hypothesis. The population of the study consists of all the public secondary schools principals in Calabar Education Zone, Cross River State. Census sampling technique was used. The instruments used for collection of data were a questionnaire titled “Time Management Questionnaire (TMQ)” and “Teachers’ Job Performance Questionnaire (TJPQ).” Validity of the instruments was determined by two experts in Measurement and Evaluation. They had reliability estimate of 0.73-0.93. The collected data were analysed using Pearson Product Moment Correlational analysis. The study revealed that time management correlates positively and significantly with teachers’ work performance. It was recommended among others that the school managers should supervise or delegate their vice and heads of department to supervise the teachers from time to time in order to ensure proper management of their time for effective job performance.

description: Additional file 6: Scoring of fibrinosuppurative lesions of piglets challenged with S. suis cps14. Fourteen days after prime-booster immunization with multicomponent vaccine or placebo, sixteen growing piglets (n = 8 per group) were infected intranasally with 5 × 109 CFU of S. suis cps14 V3117/2. Five vaccinated animals and four placebo animals demonstrated clinical signs of severe disease. In both groups two piglets had to be euthanized for animal welfare reasons because of signs of polyarthritis. One vaccinated animal showed additional signs of central nervous system dysfunction (opisthotonus, generalized tremor, ataxia) and had to be euthanized as well. Surviving piglets were sacrificed fourteen days post-infection. Necropsies and histopathological screenings of the indicated tissues were conducted with all 16 piglets as described previously [10].

description: Objective of the study was to analyze benefits of the EEG theta rhythm tests for competitive performance rating purposes in some sports disciplines, with the EEG theta-activity rates applicable as the competitive progress biomarkers. Results and conclusion. Subject to the study was a correlation of the EEG theta rhythm amplitude with the individual attention control; plus a clear correlation between the frontal-medial theta rhythm amplitude and competitive progress found by a few studies. Some studies found the theta rhythm amplitudes for the sports professionals and beginners showing expressed differences that may be interpreted as indicative of the skills levels, with the theta rhythm rates applicable for the skill set rating purposes. Of special interest were analyses of the theta rhythm amplitude fluctuation profiles as biomarkers of the skill difficulty levels and state anxiety in sports. Subject to the studies were also transcranial magnetic stimulation (with the theta packing protocols) methods used to correct the psycho-emotional control, optimize attention and motor memorizing mechanisms for a faster progress in the athletic skills mastering and excellence process. Of special importance in this context was the finding that transcranial magnetic stimulation of motor cortex improves the anaerobic performance. It should be emphasized, however, that the fast progress of the transcranial magnetic stimulation methods is associated with some risks as steps up the pre-competitive mental and physical fitness and, hence, may be interpreted as a sort of "neural doping". The study data and analyses give the grounds to conclude that the theta-rhythm-harmonized frequencies may be beneficial for precompetitive mental conditioning, with the EEG theta rhythm amplitude applicable as promising biomarkers for the training system improvements and competitive progress.

description: In this paper we analyze the problem of glow discharge in low pressure plasma in industrial plant, for chambers of different shapes and various working parameters, like pressure and electric potential. The model described is based upon a static approximation of the AC configuration with two electrodes and a drift diffusion approximation for the current density of positive ions and electrons. A detailed discussion of the boundary conditions imposed is given, as well as the full description of the mathematical model. Numerical simulations were performed for a simple 1D model and two different 2D models, corresponding to two different settings of the industrial plant. The simpler case consists of a radially symmetric chamber, with one central electrode (cathode), based upon a DC generator. In this case, the steel chamber acts as the anode. The second model concerns a two dimensional horizontal cut of the most common plant configuration, with two electrodes connected to an AC generator. The case is treated in a "quasi-static" approximation. The three models show some common behaviours, particularly including the main expected features, such as dark spaces, glow regions and a wide "plasma region". Furthermore, the three shown models show some similarities with previously published results concerning 1D and simplified 2D models, as well as with some preliminary results of the full 3D case.

description: The behavior of suspensions of rigid particles in a non-Newtonian fluid is studied in the framework of a nonlinear homogenization method. Estimates for the overall properties of the composite material are obtained. In the case of a Herschel-Bulkley suspending fluid, it is shown that the properties of a suspension with overall isotropy can be satisfactory modeled as that of a Herschel-Bulkley fluid with an exponent equal to that of the suspending fluid. Estimates for the yield stress and the consistency at large strain rate levels are proposed. These estimates compare well to both experimental data obtained by Mahaut et al [J. Rheol. 52, 287-313 (2008)] and to experimental data found in the literature.

Cultural naturalization and the Church of the East in China : using interreligious iconography and inscriptions to investigate identity in Yuan China
Creators: name: Becklin, Eric Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: For well over a century, the Church of the East in China (also known as Nestorian Christianity or Jingjiao) has been commonly regarded as a syncretic sect of Christianity, possibly even adapting itself into oblivion. However, while the original basis for such an assessment is unclear, the actual evidence indicative of syncretism pales in comparison to the evidence that argues against it. For this reason, this essay makes use of the relative paucity of sources to lean into the question of what a better alternative, envisioned as cultural naturalization, could contribute. Cultural naturalization, as outlined in this paper, entails an analysis of interaction after initial contact between differing groups and posits a transition between contact and the final results of interaction. In effecting this, naturalization focuses on observing the evidence of how groups preserve or shed their identities as they negotiate the effects of contact. In the context of Jingjiao in the port city of Quanzhou, China, applying the ideas of naturalization allows us to interpret the religious group in a transitory state of interaction. The evidentiary support for more exact and final results of interaction does not currently exist to make a substantiated assessment. However, as the essay constructs naturalization as an analytic tool for explaining the evidence of interaction, the concept lends itself well to circumventing this problem of evidence that limits the use of syncretism by treating interaction as a necessary process of groups in contact—either in the positive or negative or a mix of both. In doing so, the concept of cultural naturalization acts as a tool to examine the identity of the Church of the East in China—and other groups—through the evidence of their interaction.

Semiclassical theory of energy diffusive escape in a Duffing oscillator

description: Motivated by recent experimental progress to read out quantum bits implemented in superconducting circuits via the phenomenon of dynamical bifurcation, transitions between steady orbits in a driven anharmonic oscillator, the Duffing oscillator, are analyzed. In the regime of weak dissipation a consistent master equation in the semiclassical limit is derived to capture the intimate relation between finite tunneling and reflection and bath induced quantum fluctuations. From the corresponding steady state distributions analytical expressions for the switching probabilities are obtained. It is shown that a reduction of the transition rate due to finite reflection at the phase-space barrier is overcompensated by an increase due to environmental quantum fluctuations that are specific for diffusion processes over dynamical barriers. Moreover, it is revealed that close to the bifurcation threshold the escape dynamics enters an overdamped domain such that the quantum mechanical energy scale associated with friction even exceeds the thermal energy scale.
Onset of Secular Chaos in Planetary Systems: Period Doubling & Strange Attractors

description: As a result of resonance overlap, planetary systems can exhibit chaotic motion. Planetary chaos has been studied extensively in the Hamiltonian framework, however, the presence of chaotic motion in systems where dissipative effects are important, has not been thoroughly investigated. Here, we study the onset of stochastic motion in presence of dissipation, in the context of classical perturbation theory, and show that planetary systems approach chaos via a period-doubling route as dissipation is gradually reduced. Furthermore, we demonstrate that chaotic strange attractors can exist in mildly damped systems. The results presented here are of interest for understanding the early dynamical evolution of chaotic planetary systems, as they may have transitioned to chaos from a quasi-periodic state, dominated by dissipative interactions with the birth nebula.
