Monitoring of Traffic Anomalies using Microscopic Traffic Variables in Vehicular Transportation Networks
Creators: name: Thajchayapong, Suttipong
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: This thesis proposes methodologies to monitor traffic anomalies using microscopic traffic variables measured by equipped vehicles sharing information with one another and/or localized road-side infrastructure. The proposed methodologies can identify not only traffic anomalies that lead to traffic incidents, but also small transient deviations that are usually difficult to detect. Firstly, the thesis addresses the issue of anomaly detection where novel supervised and unsupervised algorithms are proposed. The unsupervised algorithm uses the change in variability of microscopic traffic variables to detect traffic anomalies, which is also shown to outperform previous algorithms monitoring ideally placed loop detectors. The supervised algorithm can identify anomalies under different traffic regimes with 100% detection rate and low false alarm rate when applied to real-world data, which presents a signi cant improvement over the unsupervised algorithm. It is also shown that the proposed algorithms can detect anomalies even when the microscopic traffic variables are aggregated and missing. Secondly, three classification algorithms are proposed, which can be integrated with the previously proposed detection algorithms. The first algorithm identifies a lane-blocking, which is a well-known type of anomaly that often leads to traffic incidents, and is shown to outperform existing algorithms. The second algorithm identifies real-world cases of transient anomalies as well as incident precursors by assessing spatial-temporal changes of microscopic traffic variables. The third algorithm addresses the problem of misclassifications under different traffic regimes by employing a certainty-based decision function, and it is shown to successfully classify all anomaly cases in the real-world data set. Finally, the study is extended to the inference of traffic anomalies at a location where traffic variables could not be measured directly. The key contributions of the proposed algorithm are the ability to infer both normal and anomalous traffic conditions at a target location by assessing only microscopic traffic variables from adjacent locations, and the ability to estimate lane-level traffic flow, time occupancy and inter-arrival time. Based on real-world data, it is shown that the proposed algorithm outperforms a Kalman filter-based approach.

description: The San Francisco Canal was one of the first few operating irrigation ditches in the Salt River Valley. It was the only privately owned canal south of the Salt and after 1901, it was the principal water source for the seven thousand acre Bartlett-Heard Land and Cattle Company. The canal continues to serve residential Tempe. The San Francisco Canal originally had its head constructed on the south side of the Salt River approximately 1 mile below the milling town of Tempe, Arizona. The canal flowed 3.25 miles in a southerly direction, and then divided into the North and South branches. The North Branch extended along the Salt River in a westerly direction, and the South Branch extended in a southwesterly direction.

description: In this theoretical work, we calculate potential energy curves, spectroscopic pa- rameters and transition dipole moments of molecular ions BeX^+ (X=Na, K, Rb) composed of alkaline ion Be and alkali atom X with a quantum chemistry approach based on the pseudopotential model, Gaussian basis sets, effective core polarization potentials, and full configuration interaction (CI). We study in detail collisions of the alkaline ion and alkali atom in quantum regime. Besides, we study the possibility of the formation of molecular ions from the ion-atom colliding systems by stimu- lated Raman adiabatic process and discuss the parameters regime under which the population transfer is feasible. Our results are important for ion-atom cold collisions and experimental realization of cold molecular ion formation.

description: Multicomplex numbers of order n have an associated trigonometry (multisine functions with (n-1) parameters) leading to a natural extension of the sine-Gordon model. The parameters are constrained from the requirement of local current conservation. In two dimensions for n < 6 known integrable models (deformed Toda and non-linear sigma, pure affine Toda...) with dual counterparts are obtained in this way from the multicomplex space MC itself and from the natural embedding $\MC_n \subset \MMC_m, n < m$. For $ n \ge 6$ a generic constraint on the space of parametersis obtained from current conservation at first order in the interaction Lagragien.

The influence of zinc dialkyldithiophosphate and other lubricant additives on soot-induced wear
Creators: name: Olomolehin, Yewande
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: Diesel engines are becoming increasingly popular in both passenger and commercial vehicles because they offer better fuel efficiency than their gasoline counterparts. However, a disadvantage of this type of engine is the high volumes of soot it produces, which can contribute to an increase in wear of the engine components. A number of wear mechanisms have been proposed to explain wear by soot, of which the abrasive mechanism is still the most widely accepted. Lubricant additives such as zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP) are frequently used as antiwear (AW) agents but the combined effect of soot and additives such as ZDDP on wear is not well understood. The aim of the work described in this thesis is to explore the impact of soot on wear both in the absence and presence of lubricant additives, of particular interest is the additive ZDDP. A unidirectional sliding/rolling test is used to explore the impact of film-thickness on wear while a reciprocating wear tester enables accurate wear measurements for individual test lubricants. The AW additives studied, most especially ZDDP, show excellent antiwear behaviour in the absence of carbon black (CB) – used as a substitute for soot. However, once CB is combined with AW additives, an unusual wear pattern emerges and an increase in wear is observed. A new mechanism of wear by soot is therefore suggested and discussed to explain this effect.

description: We consider the cosmological models based on Palatini f(R)-theory for the function f(R)=aR-2bR^2-3c/R, which, when only dust visible matter is considered, is called dune cosmology in view of the shape of the function f(R(a)) (being a the scale factor). We discuss about the meaning of solving the model, and interpret it according to Ehlers-Pirani-Schild framework as defining a Weyl geometry on spacetime. Accordingly, we extend the definitions of luminosity distance, proper distance, and redshift to Weyl geometries and fit the values of parameters to SNIa data. Since the theoretical prediction is model-dependent, we argue that the it is affected by an extra choice, namely a model for atomic clocks, which, in principle, produces observable effects. To the best of our knowledge, these effects have not being considered in the literature before.

description: We present a comparative study of the application of modern eigenvalue algorithms to an eigenvalue problem arising in quantum physics, namely, the computation of a few interior eigenvalues and their associated eigenvectors for the large, sparse, real, symmetric, and indefinite matrices of the Anderson model of localization. We compare the Lanczos algorithm in the 1987 implementation of Cullum and Willoughby with the implicitly restarted Arnoldi method coupled with polynomial and several shift-and-invert convergence accelerators as well as with a sparse hybrid tridiagonalization method. We demonstrate that for our problem the Lanczos implementation is faster and more memory efficient than the other approaches. This seemingly innocuous problem presents a major challenge for all modern eigenvalue algorithms.

Morphological properties of galaxies in different Local Volume environments

description: We consider an all-sky sample of 1029 Local Volume (LV) galaxies situated within a distance of 11 Mpc. Their majority have precise distances, estimates of hydrogen mass fraction and star-formation rate derived from far-ultraviolet or Halpha fluxes. To describe an environment, we attribute two dimensionless values: the density contrast created by the most significant neighbour and the local density contrast produced by all neighbours within a separation of 1 Mpc. The hydrogen mass fraction exhibits a weak effect of HI deficiency being the most pronounced for dwarf irregular galaxies. The specific star-formation rate (sSFR) is more sensitive to the environment than the hydrogen mass fraction. Almost all (99 per cent) LV galaxies have their sSFR below -9.4 dex (1/yr). We notice that irregular dwarfs as well as late-type bulgeless galaxies are capable to reproduce their stellar mass with the observed sSFR over the cosmic time. Thus, the transformation of gas into stars in dIrs and spiral disks is rather sluggish unlike that in E, S0, dSph galaxies, whose star-formation history has been stormy and short. Scatter of SFR(Halpha)-to-SFR(FUV) ratio increases from Sc, Sd, Sm galaxies towards BCD, Im, Ir types that favours the idea of bursty star formations in low-mass galaxies. However, this bursty activity is caused rather by internal processes than by an external tidal action. A fraction of quenched E, S0, dSph galaxies increases from ~5 per cent in the field up to ~50 per cent in the densest regions.

description: We address the dephasing dynamics of a qubit as an effective process to estimate the temperature of its environment. Our scheme is inherently quantum, since it exploits the sensitivity of the qubit to decoherence, and does not require thermalization with the system under investigation. We optimize the quantum Fisher information with respect to the interaction time and the temperature in the case of Ohmic-like environments. We also find explicitly the qubit measurement achieving the quantum Cramer- Rao bound to precision. Our results show that the conditions for optimal estimation originate from a non-trivial interplay between the dephasing dynamics and the Ohmic structure of the environment. In general, optimal estimation is achieved neither when the qubit approaches the stationary state, nor for full dephasing.

description: A novel toolbox named FLOreS is presented for intuitive design of fractional order controllers (FOC) using industry standard loop shaping technique. This will allow control engineers to use frequency response data (FRD) of the plant to design FOCs by shaping the open loop to meet the necessary specifications of stability, robustness, tracking, precision and bandwidth. FLOreS provides a graphical approach using closed-loop sensitivity functions for overall insight into system performance. The main advantage over existing optimization toolboxes for FOC is that the engineer can use prior knowledge and expertise of plant during design of FOC. Different approximation methods for fractional order filters are also included for greater freedom of final implementation. This combined with the included example plants enables additionally to be used as an educational tool. FLOreS has been used for design and implementation of both integer and fractional order controllers on a precision stage to prove industry readiness.

description: In this note, we consider particle falling in the black hole with an additional potential. Following the proposal by Susskind \cite{Susskind:2018tei}, we study the growth rate of the particle's Rindler momentum, which corresponds to the growth rate of the operator size in the dual chaotic system. A general analysis near the horizon shows that the growth rate of the particle's Rindler momentum of the particle falling with a regular potential is as the same as that of the particle free falling, which saturates the chaos bound. However, when the potential is singular, the growth rate is suppressed such that it is below the Lyapunov exponent. It implies that the chaos suppression may be captured by an additional singular potential in the gravity side. We further explicitly study a particle falling in hyperscaling violating spacetime to confirm the general analysis results. Finally we study the particle falling in AdS soliton geometry. It also exhibits a suppression of the growth of the Rindler momentum. It is attributed to that when the repulsive potential is introduced or the black hole horizon is absent, the particle is slowed down and its trajectory seen by a comoving observer is timelike, which corresponds a weak chaos system.

description: Soil Systems, Inc. has recently completed data recovery investigations at 30 Hohokam, Protohistoric and Historic sites on the Ak-Chin Indian Reservation south of Maricopa, Arizona. Fieldwork was conducted between April and October of 1985 on the west half of the reservation prior to development of farm lands by the Ak-Chin Indian Community. The work was sponsored by the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation as part of the Central Arizona Project Indian Distribution System authorized by Congress to allot Central Arizona Project waters for Indian farm development. Soil Systems is under contract to the Ak-Chin Farms, an enterprise owned and operated by the Ak-Chin Indian Community. Funding for the project was provided by a grant to the Ak-Chin Farms under the Federal Small Loans Program, Reclamation Small Loans Act. This project is the first archaeological data recovery program authorized in Arizona by this federal grant program. The farm development project is being designed and managed by Franzoy-Corey Engineers and Architects. The Bureau of Reclamation, Arizona Projects Office serves in an official government review capacity and the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office oversees archaeological compliance for the agency. We are pleased to report that the cooperation between the private sector, various agencies and the Ak-Chin Indian Community has been excellent and has contributed to a very successful program. SSI is currently in the process of analyzing the mass of data recovered from the 30 sites investigated last summer and writing site reports. At this time none of the analyses are complete. Therefore, the preliminary results reported here today are subject to refinement in the coming months as these data are synthesized into the final report. The research design is currently at the printers and will be available for distribution in the next two weeks. Our first annual report is scheduled to be delivered to Franzoy-Corey on May 15th and should be available for distribution shortly thereafter. We would like to take the opportunity today to review the four problem domains presented in the original research design and assess these research themes against the results of the fieldwork and the analyses conducted to date.

description: The purpose of this study was to verify and correct the information in Reclamation’s Resource Information System (RIS, previously called LAPS) data base on Reclamation-owned buildings in the Lower Colorado Region that are more than forty years old. An additional aim of the study was to identify through research and fieldwork other forty-plus year old buildings that are Reclamation-owned that have never been entered in the data base. The survey covered buildings only; structures are listed separately in RIS and were not within the scope of this study. Information on all buildings surveyed has been entered on inventory forms that are designed to be compatible with the RIS data forms. The level of survey completed is considered reconnaisance although for certain buildings more comprehensive information was readily available through research and has been included. The study was completed between April 1996 and January 1997.

description: Desert Archaeology, Inc., has completed archaeological testing of a 2.2-acre site for the proposed Salt River Project (SRP) McReynolds Substation located in southern Phoenix, Maricopa County, Arizona. The work was initiated due to the possibility that archaeological remains associated with the Lombeye Ruin, AZ T:12:109 (ASM), a National Register-eligible site, may be present in the project area. Testing began on 25 May 2004, under the direction of Tiffany Clark, and was completed on 2 June 2004. A total of 150 person-hours was expended in this effort. Fieldwork was conducted in accordance with the testing plan prepared by Desert Archaeology (Henderson and Clark 2004a). The objective of the testing program was to determine if buried archaeological remains were present within the substation site and, if found, to assess their extent, integrity, and significance. A total of 464 linear m (1,522 ft) of trench was cut during testing. This work resulted in the discovery of two possible pithouse features in the northcentral portion of the project area. Limited test excavations in one of the features revealed the remains of an insubstantial and poorly preserved fieldhouse structure. The findings of this study suggested that additional data recovery efforts are not warranted as such excavations were not expected to yield information that will significantly contribute to the current understanding of Lombeye Ruin. Background information on the project, descriptions of field methods, the results of the testing program, and a recommendation that construction activities proceed as planned are presented in this report.

description: Topological edge states exist at the interfaces between two topologically-distinct materials. The presence and number of such modes are deterministically predicted from the bulk-band topologies, known as the bulk-edge correspondence. This principle is highly useful for predictably controlling optical modes in resonators made of photonic crystals (PhCs), leading to the recent demonstrations of micro-scale topological lasers. Meanwhile, zero-dimensional topological trapped states in the nanoscale remained unexplored, despite its importance for enhancing light-matter interactions and for wide applications including single-mode nanolasers. Here, we report a topological PhC nanocavity with a near-diffraction-limited mode volume and its application to single-mode lasing. The topological origin of the nanocavity, formed at the interface between two topologically-distinct PhCs, guarantees the existence of only one mode within its photonic bandgap. The observed lasing accompanies a high spontaneous emission coupling factor stemming from the nanoscale confinement. These results encompass a way to greatly downscale topological photonics.

The ZEPLIN dark matter search: two phase xenon as a WIMP target
Creators: name: Edwards, Blair Nicholas Victor
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: The existence of a significant non-baryonic component to the universe is widely accepted, with worldwide efforts underway trying to detect this so-called dark matter. The ZEPLIN detectors utilise liquid xenon as a target medium in the search of the expected rare interactions of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, or WIMPs, with ordinary baryonic matter. The neutralino, arising in supersymmetric extensions to the standard model of particle physics, provides a particularly well-motivated candidate. The ZEPLIN-II and ZEPLIN-III experiments, operate in two-phase mode (liquid/gas), measuring both the scintillation and ionisation signatures produced during an interaction. These instruments form the basis of this thesis. The ZEPLIN-II experiment was operated underground at the Boulby Underground Laboratory, culminating in a WIMP search run lasting 57 days. Some key operational aspects are discussed, and a full description of the data analysis is given, which yielded a competitive upper limit on the spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering crosssection with a minimum of 6.6×10−7 pb for a 65 GeV/c2 WIMP with 90% confidence. Subsequently, a smaller collaboration proceeded with the commissioning and operation of ZEPLIN-III at Boulby. The detector was operated stably for 12 months, culminating in the first science run, which excluded a cross-section above 7.7 × 10−8 pb for a 55 GeV/c2 WIMP. This placed ZEPLIN-III as one of the world’s leading WIMP search experiments. Along with the WIMP search results, the data collected from these instruments have been exploited to extract information about the underlying xenon physics processes, which will play an important role in design of future systems. This includes the first quantitative measurements of single electron emission in a two-phase noble gas detector, studies of the field dependence of their response and of the anti-correlation between the scintillation and ionisation channels.

description: We develop exact field theoretic methods to treat turbulence when the effect of pressure is negligible. We find explicit forms of certain probability distributions, demonstrate that the breakdown of Galilean invariance is responsible for intermittency and establish the operator product expansion. We also indicate how the effects of pressure can be turned on perturbatively.

description: This report presents the results of a Class III cultural resources survey of 60 acres of privately owned land on the flats north of Haley Hills, Pinal County, Arizona. The work was requested by Salt River Project (SRP) to determine if significant cultural resources were present within the surveyed property. SRP recently purchased the land and is planning to construct an electrical substation (Pinal West) on the property. The Pinal West Substation will be part of the proposed Palo Verde to Pinal West 500 kV Transmission Line project. SRP indicates that all federal and state lands that may be affected by this project have been surveyed (Class III); the survey of private land is pending. This report will be included as part of compliance documentation for the larger transmission project (see NEPA Environmental Assessment No. BLM EA AZ-020-2003-0045; Arizona Corporation Commission Certificate of Environmental Compatibility Case No. 124; Docket No. L00000B-03-0124; SHPO File No. SHPO-2003-0184 [19089]). The cultural resources survey was conducted on 13 May 2005, by Dr. Kathy Henderson and Tiffany Clark of Desert Archaeology, Inc. Dr. Henderson also served as Principal Investigator for the project. Although the surveyed land is private and no archaeological permit is required, Desert Archaeology does hold a current Arizona Antiquities blanket permit (Permit No. 2005-007bl) for conducting non-collection surveys within the state. Two isolated occurrences of prehistoric artifacts were recorded by the survey, but no archaeological sites or other significant cultural resources were found.

description: We report on the detection of a stellar halo around NGC 1560, a 10^9 Mo spiral galaxy member of the Maffei group. We obtained deep images in the r and i bands using the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias in a field centered at ~ 3.7 arcmin (projected distance of 3.5 kpc) from the center of this galaxy. The luminosity function and the CMD show a clear excess of stars with respect to the expected foreground level at magnitudes fainter than the RGB tip at the distance of NGC 1560. The color of the halo stars implies a metallicity of Z ~ Zo/50, while their counts correspond to a stellar mass of ~ 10^7 Mo in the sampled region. Assuming a power law profile for the surface mass density of the halo, our data suggest a total stellar mass of 10^8 Mo for the halo of NGC 1560.

Investigation of photoelectrons from molecules in a strong field
Creators: name: Darios, Delphine
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: When intense and few-cycle laser pulses interact with an atomic/molecular beam highorder Above Threshold Ionisation (HATI) can take place. The resulting electrons can be re-scattered from the parent atoms/molecules and gain kinetic energy. The HATI electrons contain information about the atomic/molecular structure thus providing a method to probe atomic and molecular dynamics with sub-fs temporal and sub-angström spatial resolution. In this thesis the development of a Velocity Map Imaging apparatus capable of measuring the two-dimensional (2D) projection of the velocity distribution of electrons with energies up to 400 eV is described. This device was implemented with a molecular beam apparatus to study the electron re-scattering process that occurs when atoms/molecules are subjected to strong laser fields. Time-of-fight measurements were carried out to find the molecular beam. To perform the experiments a method to generate intense and few-cycle pulses based on hollow fibre pulse compression has been implemented. Pulses of 14 fs with energies of 500 μJ have been measured in a differentially pumped fibre set-up, with input pulses of 42 fs and 700 μJ using a home-made Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating device. The performance of the VMI apparatus was investigated by first studying the ATI rings formed by low energy electrons. Then, a study of the high energy electrons was carried out in different gases and re-scattered electrons with energies up to 100 eV were measured. The photoelectron spectra recorded with linearly polarised laser exhibit a plateau with a cut-off at 10 UP that is a characteristic of the re-scattering process. The observation of rescattered electrons was confirmed by two techniques: comparison of the data obtained with vertical polarisation (re-scattering) and circular polarisation (no re-scattering) and analysis of the structure in the angular distribution obtained in Xenon.

description: Increasingly stringent performance requirements for motion control necessitate the use of increasingly detailed models of the system behavior. Motion systems inherently move, therefore, spatio-temporal models of the flexible dynamics are essential. In this paper, a two-step approach for the identification of the spatio-temporal behavior of mechanical systems is developed and applied to a lightweight prototype industrial wafer stage. The proposed approach exploits a modal modeling framework and combines recently developed powerful linear time invariant (LTI) identification tools with a spline-based mode-shape interpolation approach to estimate the spatial system behavior. The experimental results for the wafer stage application confirm the suitability of the proposed approach for the identification of complex position-dependent mechanical systems, and its potential for motion control performance improvements.
