description: That the American Protestant missionaries created an image of China has been generally accepted; what they said precisely that created that image is not so well known. This dissertation surveys the picture of China's day-to-day life as observed, experienced and reported by approximately seventy long-term American Protestant missionaries in ninety of their books published between 1927 and 1950, their final years in China. The authors who made up the research sample were missionary churchmen, educators, and physicians and nurses. They represented several denominations, from mainline churches to the smaller sects. The authors, from a variety of backgrounds, wrote to a varied group of constituencies.
The missionary writers recorded a special piece of American history worked out in an alien land. They wrote out of who they were, and who they had become after long years in China. They wrote out of their roles in China and according to their purposes which, for some, changed over the years. They wrote of China's needs and of the obligation of Christian Americans to respond to those needs. They wrote of their dilemmas which grew as forces swirled around them beyond their control.

description: Swarms of autonomous agents are useful in many applications due to their ability to accomplish tasks in a decentralized manner, making them more robust to failures. Due to the difficulty in running experiments with large numbers of hardware agents, researchers often make simplifying assumptions and remove constraints that might be present in a real swarm deployment. While simplifying away some constraints is tolerable, we feel that two in particular have been overlooked: one, that agents in a swarm take up physical space, and two, that agents might be damaged in collisions. Many existing works assume agents have negligible size or pass through each other with no added penalty. It seems possible to ignore these constraints using collision avoidance, but we show using an illustrative example that this is easier said than done. In particular, we show that collision avoidance can interfere with the intended swarming behavior and significant parameter tuning is necessary to ensure the behavior emerges as best as possible while collisions are avoided. We compare four different collision avoidance algorithms, two of which we consider to be the best decentralized collision avoidance algorithms available. Despite putting significant effort into tuning each algorithm to perform at its best, we believe our results show that further research is necessary to develop swarming behaviors that can achieve their goal while avoiding collisions with agents of non-negligible volume.

Beyond Polythiophenes: Exploring the Impact of Precisely Controlled Microstructure of Group 16 Conjugated Polymers on their Supramolecular Organization and Properties

description: Well-defined, regio-regular conjugated polymers such as P3HT have been extensively explored over the past few decades for applications in the field of organic electronics. Methods to explore the microstructure of this benchmark material (such as atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray scattering techniques (i.e. grazing incidence X-ray scattering (GIWAXS)) have enabled the scientific community to discern how atomic-scale periodicity and nanoscale organization can influence the polymer’s physical properties such as its thermal, photo and electronic response. The development of novel conjugated polymers with various heteroatom sequence and side-chain architecture is of particular interest as a way to tune the physical properties and enhance
photo-stability in light and air. Correlation between polymer microstructure and the resulting macroscopic properties is paramount to develop next generation materials. Therefore, the scope of this work entails an overview of conjugated polymers (Chapter 1) with insights to examining
structure-property relationships of Group 16 family homopolymers (Chapter 2), including a ‘model’ fitting of solid-state UV-vis spectra inspired by Spano and co-workers. Beyond polythiophenes, assessment of periodic and random copolymers with similar composition of thiophene and selenophene units (Chapter 3) revealed that regular placement of selenophene improved polymer organization with enhanced charge delocalization (characterized by ‘model’ fitting of UV-vis spectra). And finally, ester side-chain substitution in polyfurans not
only showed improved photo-stability in the presence of light and air (Chapter 4), but also favored an all-cis conformation resulting in a helical packing arrangement. This favored conformational structure was also shown to extend to alternating copolymers containing ester substituted furan
rings. In contrast, ester substituted polythiophene exhibited extended configurations with higher degrees of disorder. In the alternating copolymer, the placement of ester groups along the polymer backbone, resulted in the low band-gap structures.

description: Remote sensing is an innovative science and technology that is aiding in numerous modes of transportation. Almost every aspect of transportation can benefit from utilizing imagery and data. Specifically, these technologies can be applied to planning, environmental impact assessment, hazard and disaster response, infrastructure management, traffic assessment, and homeland security planning (“Transportation and Remote Sensing,” 1999). The United States transportation system is a critical component of our economy and mobility (Williamson, Morain, Budge, & Hepner, 2002). There are millions of miles of roadways and bridges to monitor and maintain. In addition, remote sensing can be utilized towards the development and planning of new infrastructure and transportation systems. Remote sensing provides the unique ability to detect changes in our transportation system on a real-time basis. Imagery can be collected from multiple platforms, including satellite, aircraft-based, and ground-based, which allows data collection to be tailored to a particular transportation application. This paper will provide an overview of some of the potential applications of remote sensing in transportation. Due to the broad scope of this topic, several modes will not be discussed including aviation and marine. The main focus will be on ground transportation, infrastructure, and homeland security as it relates to transportation applications. Emerging technologies, such as hyperspectral remote sensing and LIDAR, will also be discussed. In addition, the Nebraska Airborne Remote Sensing Facility, one of only a few operating in the United States will be described. Two tribal communities in Nebraska are utilizing the data collected from the facility to address transportation issues. An Assessment of Remote Sensing Applications in Transportation

description: The transition from the near to the far field of the fundamental mode radiating out of a photonic crystal fiber is investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is observed that the hexagonal shape of the near field rotates two times by pi/6 when moving into the far field, and eventually six satellites form around a nearly gaussian far-field pattern. A semi-empirical model is proposed, based on describing the near field as a sum of seven gaussian distributions, which qualitatively explains all the observed phenomena and quantitatively predicts the relative intensity of the six satellites in the far field.

description: Theory of the firm suggests that firms should maximize profit by investing in safety until the marginal cost is equal to the marginal benefit. This paper tests the relationship between firm safety performance and safety practices, safety technologies, and firm marketing strategies. By testing the impact of the safety performance marketing strategy on carrier crash rates, it can be shown that firm managers have control over the safety performance of their firm through management decisions.

description: We present a generalisation of the flavour-ordering method applied to the chiral nonlinear sigma model with any number of flavours. We use an extended Lagrangian with terms containing any number of derivatives, organised in a power-counting hierarchy. The method allows diagrammatic computations at tree-level with any number of legs at any order in the power-counting. Using an automated implementation of the method, we calculate amplitudes ranging from 12 legs at leading order, $\mathcal{O}(p^2)$, to 6 legs at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order, $\mathcal{O}(p^8)$. In addition to this, we generalise several properties of amplitudes in the nonlinear sigma model to higher orders. These include the double soft limit and the uniqueness of stripped amplitudes.

description: Sharing data between GIS software (Arc/Info) and Traffic Demand Modeling Software (EMME/2) has long been an issue of interest to traffic engineers. A literature review and evaluation of current efforts on the data exchange is given in this paper. The authors also developed their own economical method to realize the data transform through Matlab programming. As an example, the road network of Lyon County, Minnesota is constructed by the integrated use of Arc/Info, EMME/2, Enif, and the Matlab program. The combined use of these programs achieved the expected objectives through a practical and economical way. The method can be utilized by other EMME/2 users who have a similar need.

description: The effect of thermal annealing on the properties of Al-AlOx-Al single electron tunneling transistors is reported. After treatment of the devices by annealing processes in forming gas atmosphere at different temperatures and for different times, distinct and reproducible changes of their resistance and capacitance values were found. According to the temperature regime, we observed different behaviors as regards the resistance changes, namely the tendency to decrease the resistance by annealing at T = 200 degree C, but to increase the resistance by annealing at T = 400 degree C. We attribute this behavior to changes in the aluminum oxide barriers of the tunnel junctions. The good reproducibility of these effects with respect to the changes observed allows the proper annealing treatment to be used for post-process tuning of tunnel junction parameters. Also, the influence of the annealing treatment on the noise properties of the transistors at low frequency was investigated. In no case did the noise figures in the 1/f-regime show significant changes.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We theoretically determine the magnetic exchange interaction between two ferromagnets coupled by a superconductor using a tight-binding lattice model. The main purpose of this study is to determine how the self-consistently determined superconducting state influences the exchange interaction and the preferred ground-state of the system, including the role of impurity scattering. We find that the superconducting state eliminates RKKY-like oscillations for a sufficiently large superconducting gap, making the anti-parallel orientation the ground state of the system. Interestingly, the superconducting gap is larger in the parallel configuration than in the anti-parallel configuration, giving a larger superconducting condensation energy, even when the preferred ground state is anti-parallel. We also show that increasing the impurity concentration in the superconductor causes the exchange interaction to decrease, likely due to an increasing localization of the mediating quasiparticles in the superconductor.

description: We perform direct numerical simulations (DNS) of an advected scalar field which diffuses and reacts according to a nonlinear reaction law. The objective is to study how the bulk burning rate of the reaction is affected by an imposed flow. In particular, we are interested in comparing the numerical results with recently predicted analytical upper and lower bounds. We focus on reaction enhancement and quenching phenomena for two classes of imposed model flows with different geometries: periodic shear flow and cellular flow. We are primarily interested in the fast advection regime. We find that the bulk burning rate v in a shear flow satisfies v ~ a*U+b where U is the typical flow velocity and a is a constant depending on the relationship between the oscillation length scale of the flow and laminar front thickness. For cellular flow, we obtain v ~ U^{1/4}. We also study flame extinction (quenching) for an ignition-type reaction law and compactly supported initial data for the scalar field. We find that in a shear flow the flame of the size W can be typically quenched by a flow with amplitude U ~ alpha*W. The constant alpha depends on the geometry of the flow and tends to infinity if the flow profile has a plateau larger than a critical size. In a cellular flow, we find that the advection strength required for quenching is U ~ W^4 if the cell size is smaller than a critical value.

description: Lévy walk is a practical model and has wide applications in various fields. Here we focus on the effect of an external constant force on the Lévy walk with the exponent of the power-law distributed flight time $α\in(0,2)$. We add the term $Fη(s)$ ($η(s)$ is the Lévy noise) on a subordinated Langevin system to characterize such a constant force, being effective on the velocity process for all physical time after the subordination. We clearly show the effect of the constant force $F$ on this Langevin system and find this system is like the continuous limit of the collision model. The first moments of velocity processes for these two models are consistent. In particular, based on the velocity correlation function derived from our subordinated Langevin equation, we investigate more interesting statistical quantities, such as the ensemble- and time-averaged mean squared displacements. Under the influence of constant force, the diffusion of particles becomes faster. Finally, the super-ballistic diffusion and the non-ergodic behavior are verified by the simulations with different $α$.

description: This study provides empirical evidence on the link between population density and agricultural intensification and other strategies that rural communities use to adapt to increasing population density. The qualitative data used in this study were collected through Focus group discussions (FGDs) among experienced community members who provided historical accounts on the dynamics of rural communities and transitions in agriculture that can be linked to scarcity of land associated with population density growth. The results generated by this study offer some insights on the link between population density growth and agricultural development. The study finds evidence of a Boserupian type of agricultural transformation in rural Kenya. Rural communities mainly responded to scarcity of land through agricultural intensification, migration and off farm diversification. Unsustainable land fragmentation, decline in agricultural outputs and incomes and deterioration in soil quality were cited as key phenomena accompanying the strategies adopted in response to population density growth. From the results we draw some policy implications that can provide insights to policy makers to guide sustainable agricultural development in the densely populated areas which include reversal of land fragmentation, improved market access, proper use of fertilizers and land policies that encourage migration into scarcely populated areas.

description: We define a random model for the moments of the new eigenfunctions of a point scat-terer on a 2-dimensional rectangular flat torus. In the deterministic setting,Seba conjectured these moments to be asymptotically Gaussian, in the semi-classical limit. This conjecture was disproved by Kurlberg-Uebersch{ä}r on Diophantine tori. In our model, we describe the accumulation points in distribution of the randomized moments, in the semi-classical limit. We prove that asymptotic Gaussianity holds if and only if some function, modeling the multiplicities of the Laplace eigenfunctions, diverges to +$\infty$.

description: We present a comprehensive construction of scalar, vector and tensor harmonics on maximally symmetric three-dimensional spaces. Our formalism relies on the introduction of spin-weighted spherical harmonics and a generalized helicity basis which, together, are ideal tools to decompose harmonics into their radial and angular dependencies. We provide a thorough and self-contained set of expressions and relations for these harmonics. Being general, our formalism also allows to build harmonics of higher tensor type by recursion among radial functions, and we collect the complete set of recursive relations which can be used. While the formalism is readily adapted to computation of CMB transfer functions, we also collect explicit forms of the radial harmonics which are needed for other cosmological observables. Finally, we show that in curved spaces, normal modes cannot be factorized into a local angular dependence and a unit norm function encoding the orbital dependence of the harmonics, contrary to previous statements in the literature.

description: Field data collected from two samples of 101 pure owner-operators and 100 part-tenant farmers were analysed and interpreted for assessing effect of farm size and tenurial status of land on production efficiency. Medium farms (0.75--2.00 hectares) appeared to achieve the highest efficiency followed by small farms (below 0.75 hectare) and large farms (above 2.00 hectares) revealing that the relationship between farm size and efficiency is neither positive nor negative throughout. If one moves from small farms to medium farms, the relationship is positive ; and if o ie moves from medium farms to large farms, it is negative. Production efficiency tended to be the highest on owned land followed by cash rented land crop share rented land with input coat-shaving and crop-share rented land without input cost-sharing suggesting that, irrespective of rental arrangements, the mechanism of land tenancy acts acts as a hindrance to higher production efficiency. Inter-rental system comparison reveals that cash renting system is a better mechanism than crop-share renting even with input-cost sharing. However, input cost-sharing practice accelerated production performance on crop-share rented land.

Subjects: Research and Development/Tech Change/Emerging Technologies

description: The paper analyzes certain characteristics of foodgrains production technology in North-West Bangladesh. A comparison of regional with national data reveals that the region lags behind the national average in the use of yield raising inputs. The growth of irrigation in the region is also seen to be biased toward high cost technology. Despite these unfavourable conditions, the performance of food-grains production sector is encouraging in the area. The rich potential of the sector in the region is, however, constrained by various socio-cultural and technological factors including non availability of irrigation water during dry season. It is argued that the realisation of the potentials requires appropriate policy measures encompassing several dimensions.
Bianchi spacetimes as super-curvature modes around isotropic cosmologies

description: A powerful result in theoretical cosmology states that a subset of anisotropic Bianchi models can be seen as the homogeneous limit of (standard) linear cosmological perturbations. Such models are precisely those leading to Friedmann spacetimes in the limit of zero anisotropy. Building on previous works, we give a comprehensive exposition of this result, and perform the detailed identification between anisotropic degrees of freedom and their corresponding scalar, vector, and tensor perturbations of standard perturbation theory. In particular, we find that anisotropic models very close to open (i.e., negatively curved) Friedmann spaces correspond to some type of super-curvature perturbations. As a consequence, provided anisotropy is mild, its effects on all types of cosmological observables can always be computed as simple extensions of the standard techniques used in relativistic perturbation theory around Friedmann models. This fact opens the possibility to consistently constrain, for all cosmological observables, the presence of large scale anisotropies on the top of the stochastic fluctuations.

description: We observed the 2001 November superoutburst of CC Cnc. This observation makes the first detailed coverage of a superoutburst of this object. The best-determined mean superhump period is 0.075518 +/- 0.000018 d, which is 2.7% longer than the reported orbital period. This fractional superhump excess is a quite typical value for a normal SU UMa-type dwarf nova, excluding the previously raised possibility that CC Cnc may have an anomalously large fractional superhump excess. During the superoutburst plateau, the object showed a decrease of the superhump period at dot(P)/P = -10.2(1.3) x 10^(-5), which is one of the largest negative period derivative known in all SU UMa-type dwarf novae.

description: The unphysical solutions of the periodic Anderson model obtained by H. Keiter and T. Leuders [Europhys. Lett. 49, 801(2000)] in dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) are shown to result from the author's restricted choice of the functional form of the solution, leading to a violation of the analytic properties of the exact solution. By contrast, iterative solutions of the self-consistency condition within the DMFT obtained by techniques which preserve the correct analytic properties of the exact solution (e.g., quantum Monte-Carlo simulations or the numerical renormalization group) always lead to physical solutions.

description: Graphene oxide (GO) materials have been extensively employed in mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) research due to its unique nanotopography. Herein, various concentrations of GO flakes were used to fabricate different thickness of multilayer graphene oxide (m-GO) films using a simple drop-casting method and characterized by FTIR and AFM. The biocompatibility of m-GO films in culturing WJ-MSCs was investigated based on cell morphology, cell viability and osteogenic differentiation ability. Importantly, WJ-MSCs adhered and proliferated successfully on the m-GO films (6.25 µg, 12.5 µg and 25 µg) and showed no difference in cell morphology and viability after 5 days culture. Moreover, the WJ-MSCs growth on GO films (6.25 µg, 12.5 µg and 25 µg) enhanced the osteogenic differentiation as compared to the control (glass coverslip). Hence, the simple and inexpensive drop-casted fabrication strategy could provide biocompatible m-GO films to unlock the wider potential of WJ-MCSs in tissue engineering application.
Diachronic Cross-modal Embeddings

description: Understanding the semantic shifts of multimodal information is only possible with models that capture cross-modal interactions over time. Under this paradigm, a new embedding is needed that structures visual-textual interactions according to the temporal dimension, thus, preserving data's original temporal organisation. This paper introduces a novel diachronic cross-modal embedding (DCM), where cross-modal correlations are represented in embedding space, throughout the temporal dimension, preserving semantic similarity at each instant t. To achieve this, we trained a neural cross-modal architecture, under a novel ranking loss strategy, that for each multimodal instance, enforces neighbour instances' temporal alignment, through subspace structuring constraints based on a temporal alignment window. Experimental results show that our DCM embedding successfully organises instances over time. Quantitative experiments, confirm that DCM is able to preserve semantic cross-modal correlations at each instant t while also providing better alignment capabilities. Qualitative experiments unveil new ways to browse multimodal content and hint that multimodal understanding tasks can benefit from this new embedding.

Macroscopic Car Condensation in a Parking Garage

description: An asymmetric exclusion process type process, where cars move forward along a closed road that starts and terminates at a parking garage, displays dynamic phase transitions into two types of condensate phases where the garage becomes macroscopically occupied. The total car density $ρ_o$ and the exit probability $α$ are the two control parameters. At the transition, the number of parked cars $N_p$ diverges in both cases, with the length of the road $N_s$, as $N_p\sim N_s^{y_p}$ with $y_p=1/2$. Towards the transition, the number of parked cars vanishes as $N_p\sim ε^β$ with $β=1$, $ε=|α-α^*|$ or $ε=|ρ^*_o -ρ_o|$ being the distance from the transition. The transition into the normal phase represents also the onset of transmission of information through the garage. This gives rise to unusual parked car autocorrelations and car density profiles near the garage, which depend strongly on the group velocity of the fluctuations along the road.

The 2-D structure of dusty disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars, I. Models with grey opacities
Creators: name: Dullemond, C. P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: In this paper the two-dimensional structure of protoplanetary disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars is studied. This is done by constructing a self-consistent model based on 2-D radiative transfer coupled to the equation of vertical hydrostatics. As a simplifying assumption a grey opacity is used. It is found that the disk can adopt four different structures, dependent on the surface density distribution Sigma(R) as a function of radius, i.e. on radial- and vertical optical depth of the disk. For the case of high to intermediate vertical optical depth, the temperature and density structures are in agreement with the simple ``disk with inner hole'' model of Dullemond, Dominik & Natta (2001, henceforth DDN01). At large radii the disk adopts a flaring shape as expected, and near the dust destruction radius (located at about 0.5 AU for most Herbig Ae stars) the disk is superheated and puffs up. The region directly behind this ``puffed-up inner dust wall'' is shadowed, as predicted by DDN01. For the case of intermediate to low vertical optical depth, but still high radial optical depth, the 2-D models show that the shadow can cover the entire disk. The disk is then no longer flaring. When the disk is optically thin even in radial direction, it becomes unshadowed again because the inner rim can no longer block the stellar light. Finally, for disks that flare at intermediate radii, but become too optically thin at large radii, the outer parts once again become shadowed. But this time the shadowing is caused by the flaring part of the disk instead of the inner rim. Observational consequences of these four geometries are discussed.

description: We review the application of dynamical mean-field theory to Josephson junctions and study how to maximize the characteristic voltage IcRn which determines the width of a rapid single flux quantum pulse, and thereby the operating speed in digital electronics. We study a wide class of junctions ranging from SNS, SCmS (where Cm stands for correlated metal), SINIS (where the insulating layer is formed from a screened dipole layer), and SNSNS structures. Our review is focused on a survey of the physical results; the formalism has been developed elsewhere.
