Shear stress
Microtubule-organizing center (MTOC)

description: Endothelial cells form the lining of the walls of blood vessels and are continuously subjected to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow. Microtubule-organizing center (MTOC), also known as centrosome is a structure found in eukaryotic cells close to the nucleus. MTOC relocates relative to the nucleus when endothelial cells are exposed to shear stress which determines their polarization, thus it plays a critical role in cell migration and wound healing. The nuclear lamina, a mesh-like network that lies underneath the nuclear membrane, is composed of lamins, type V intermediate filament proteins. Mutations in LMNA gene that encodes A-type lamins cause the production of a mutant form of lamin A called progerin and leads to a rare premature aging disease known as Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS). The goal of this study is to investigate how fluid flow affects the cytoskeleton of endothelial cells. This thesis consists of two main sections; computational mechanical modeling and laboratory experimental work. The mechanical model was implemented using Ansys Workbench software as a tensegrity-based cellular model in order to simulate the state of an endothelial cell under the effects of induced shear stress from the blood fluid flow. This tensegrity-based cellular model - composed of a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, microtubules, and actin filaments - aims to understand the effects of the fluid flow on the mechanics of the cytoskeleton. In addition, the laboratory experiments conducted in this study examined the MTOC-nuclear orientation of endothelial cells under shear stress with the presence of wound healing. Wild-type lamin A and progerin-expressing BAECs were studied under static and sheared conditions. Moreover, a custom MATLAB code was utilized to measure the MTOC-nuclear orientation angle and classification. Results demonstrate that shear stress leads to different responses of the MTOC orientation between the wild-type and progerin-expressing cells around the vertical wound edge. Future directions for this study involve additional experimental work together with the improved simulation results to confirm the MTOC orientation relative to the nucleus under shear stress.

description: By carefully analyzing the low temperature density dependence of 2D conductivity in undoped high mobility n-GaAs heterostructures, we conclude that the 2D metal-insulator transition in this system is a density inhomogeneity driven percolation transition due to the breakdown of screening in the random charged impurity disorder background. In particular, our measured conductivity exponent of $\sim 1.4$ approaches the 2D percolation exponent value of 4/3 at low temperatures and our experimental data are inconsistent with there being a zero-temperature quantum critical point in our system.

description: The present study investigates the partial substitutions of Mn and Cu for Fe in the TiFe-system to gain better understanding of the role of elemental substitution on its hydrogen storage properties. The TiFe0.88-xMn0.02Cux (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04) compositions were studied. From X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Electron Probe Micro-Analysis (EPMA), it was found that all alloys are multi-phase, with TiFe as a major phase, together with \b{eta}-Ti and Ti4Fe2O-type as secondary precipitates, of all them containing also Mn and Cu. Increasing the Cu content augments the secondary phase amounts. Low quantity of secondary phases helps the activation of the main TiFe phase for the first hydrogen absorption, but on increasing their amounts, harsher activation occurs. Both Mn and Cu substitutions increase the cell parameter of TiFe, thus decreasing the first plateau pressure. However, Cu substitution rises the second plateau pressure revealing the predominancy of electronic effects associated to this substitution. All samples have fast kinetics and high hydrogen capacity making these substituted compounds promising for large scale stationary applications.

description: The use of disease-specific signatures of microRNAs (miRNAs) in exosomes has become promising for clinical applications, either as biomarkers or direct therapeutic targets. However, a new approach for exosome enrichment and quantification of miRNAs is urgently needed for its clinical application, since the commercial techniques have shortcomings in quantity and quality. To overcome these deficiencies, we developed a new method for purification of exosomes with subsequent miRNA extraction, followed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and compared our assays with commercial techniques. For the establishment of these methods, numerous reagents, parameters, and combinations thereof were examined. Our new technique for exosome extraction is based on a mannuronate-guluronate polymer (MGP) which avoids co-precipitating plasma proteins. Quality, concentration and biological activity of the isolated exosomes were examined by Western blot, Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA), and confocal microscopy. A combination of chaotropic and non-chaotropic salts was used to extract miRNAs from plasma, serum, and exosomes, allowing the exclusion of hazardous components, such as phenol/chloroform. The performance of the miRNAs extraction was verified by RT-qPCR. The chemistry and TaqMan probe were also optimized for RT-qPCR. Sensitivity, efficiency, and linearity of RT-qPCR were tested on serial dilutions of synthetic miR-16 and miR-142. Our established procedure covers all steps of miRNA analyses, and measures the levels of either cell-free and exosomal miRNAs in plasma, serum and other body fluids with high performance.

description: High-Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnets offer a novel pathway to magnetically confined fusion energy generation. Reactor-scale fusion devices require tens of kA of current to generate large toroidal fields for magnetic confinement. Operating HTS magnets at kA-current levels is difficult due to unavoidable joint resistances that require active driving of current. The large footprint and energy demand of a solid-state power supply and multi-kA current leads present significant constraints on the size, cost and efficiency of a fusion tokamak. An alternative approach is to use an HTS Flux Pump, which can generate and sustain persistent currents in HTS coils at the kA-levels required by fusion magnet systems. Here, we outline the design of a 60 kA transformer-rectifier flux pump for energizing and sustaining an 80 mH HTS fusion magnet. The flux pump is driven by an iron-core transformer with copper primary and HTS secondary windings. This is rectified by switching elements in the superconducting circuit into a unidirectional dc voltage output which charges the inductive load. To charge the load coil to 60 kA in 24 hours, an output dc voltage of 55 mV is needed. However, only 6 mV is required to maintain a long-term steady current of 60 kA. Such a device can significantly reduce the cost and footprint of future fusion reactor designs.

description: We analyze the trade-off between model complexity and accuracy for random forests by breaking the trees up into individual classification rules and selecting a subset of them. We show experimentally that already a few rules are sufficient to achieve an acceptable accuracy close to that of the original model. Moreover, our results indicate that in many cases, this can lead to simpler models that clearly outperform the original ones.

description: Agricultural ecosystems deliver food, fibre, pharmaceuticals, bioenergy and are fundamental to human wellbeing. In Hungary main measures targeting the sustainable use of agricultural land in New Hungary Rural Development Programme (NHRDP) are: Agri-Environment Payments and payments to Less Favoured Areas. Based on theoretical assumptions, the delivery of different ecosystem services (e.g. soil fertility, pest control) may be typical of one product–product connection, but farms can deliver multiple services which by themselves are produced in non-separable packages. In this study we employ a transformation function with multiple outputs and inputs, representing the maximum output producing possibility from a given input and with given conditions using generalised linear regression. Given the limited options to implement the overall policy coherence of ecosystem conservation, the presented work contributes to knowledge of decisionmakers, whose need to take into account the heterogeneity of farms and corresponding ecosystem services on farm territory.

description: This paper studies the role of market driven structural changes, and changes in agricultural policy in reconversion of permanent grassland to cropland in Estonia. Data on parcels of agricultural land and beneficiaries of direct payments in Estonia, from 2013 to 2016, and logistic regression is used in the analysis. It is argued that as a result of crisis in milk market in 2015 and 2016 some of the dairy farms changed their specialisation to cereals, oilseeds and protein crops and reconverted some of their permanent grasslands to cropland. At the same time, dairy farms who quit milk production and became specialised in cattle, sheep and goats preserved their permanent grasslands. In 2015 and 2016 the cheapest maintenance practice of permanent grassland, grass chopping, was restricted on a beneficiary’s permanent grasslands that exceeded 10 ha. This stimulated changes in land market. Some of the permanent grasslands that were preserved by passive land owners were transferred to cereals, oilseeds and protein crops farms, and cattle farms. As an adverse effect, this increased likelihood that permanent grasslands were reconverted to cropland. It is concluded that since passive land owners and cereal, oilseeds and protein crops farmers also contribute to maintenance of permanent grasslands, the cheapest maintenance practices should not be restricted. At the same time, it is crucial to improve resilience of grassland farms that contribute the most to permanent grasslands preservation.

description: Combined heat and power (CHP) generation is a competent configuration for simultaneous production of thermal and electric energy. The interdependency of heat and power outputs of CHP units presents complications and non-convexities in modelling and optimization. The nonlinear constrained economic dispatch optimization problem becomes more complex when one considers the pollution produced by generating units, transmission losses and valve-point effects of thermal units. This article uses the stochastic fractal search algorithm to solve the bi-objective combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem. The CHPED problem has bounded feasible operating regions and many local minima. The compromise programming method is used to transform the two objective functions into an aggregated objective function. The results are compared with previous results obtained by many different methods reported in the literature. The results reveal that the proposed algorithm achieves a better near-global solution and compares favourably with other commonly used global optimization techniques.

description: We have initiated a spectral line survey, at a wavelength of 3 millimeters, toward the hot molecular core Sagittarius B2(N-LMH). This is the first spectral line survey of the Sgr B2(N) region utilizing data from both an interferometer (BIMA Array) and a single-element radio telescope (NRAO 12 meter). In this survey, covering 3.6 GHz in bandwidth, we detected 218 lines (97 identified molecular transitions, 1 recombination line, and 120 unidentified transitions). This yields a spectral line density (lines per 100 MHz) of 6.06, which is much larger than any previous 3 mm line survey. We also present maps from the BIMA Array that indicate that most highly saturated species (3 or more H atoms) are products of grain chemistry or warm gas phase chemistry. Due to the nature of this survey we are able to probe each spectral line on multiple spatial scales, yielding information that could not be obtained by either instrument alone.

description: The Common Agricultural Policy post 2020 will address an increasing set of objectives, including contributing to the sustainable development goals and the Paris climate agreement. Current monitoring systems are focussed on structural and economic data and hardly cover performance indicators on the sustainability performance of farms. The EU financed FLINT project demonstrated that it is feasible to collect these sustainability data at farm level and illustrated the added value of having this type of data in a range of case studies. In this paper the costs and benefits of collecting sustainability indicators are described. Collecting the sustainability data on all farms included in FADN would increase the costs with about 40%. Large differences between countries can be observed depending on the current costs of data collection and the expected additional work to include sustainability indicators. Given the pressing need for these data a scenario is developed where sustainability data is collected on a sub-sample of 15.000 farms. This can be achieved within current budget limits if the current FADN sample would be reduced from 85 to 75 thousand farms.
Longitudinal Relationships Between Depressive Symptom Clusters and Inflammatory Biomarkers Implicated in Cardiovascular Disease in People with Depression

description: Systemic inflammation is one potential mechanism underlying the depression to cardiovascular disease (CVD) relationship. In addition, somatic rather than cognitive/affective symptoms of depression may be more predictive of poorer CVD outcomes due to systemic inflammation. However, the small existing literature in this area has yielded mixed results. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine longitudinal associations between depressive symptom clusters and inflammatory biomarkers implicated in CVD (i.e., interleukin-6, IL-6; and C-reactive protein, CRP) using data from the eIMPACT trial. In addition, race was examined as a moderator given findings from two previous studies. The eIMPACT trial was a phase II, single-center randomized controlled trial comparing 12 months of the eIMPACT intervention to usual primary care for depression. Participants were 216 primary care patients aged ≥ 50 years with a depressive disorder and CVD risk factors but no clinical CVD from a safety net healthcare system (Mage = 58.7 years, 78% female, 50% Black, Meducation = 12.8 years). Depressive symptoms clusters (i.e., somatic and cognitive/affective clusters) were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). IL-6 and high-sensitivity CRP were assessed by the local clinical research laboratory using R&D Systems ELISA kits. Change variables were modeled in MPlus using a latent difference score approach. The results of this study were largely null. Very few associations between depressive symptom clusters and inflammatory biomarkers implicated in CVD were observed, and the detected relationships may be due to type I error. Similarly, only one association was observed for race as a moderator, and the detected relationship may be due to type I error. The present findings do not provide strong support for the longitudinal associations between depressive symptom clusters and inflammatory biomarkers implicated in CVD nor the moderating effects of race. However, the present findings do not rule out the possibility of these relationships given important study limitations, such as study design and power. Future prospective cohort studies with multiple waves of data collection are needed to determine the longitudinal associations between depression facets and various inflammatory biomarkers implicated in CVD. In addition, a biologically-based approach to identifying facets of depression – e.g., the endophenotype model – may provide a clearer understanding of the depression-inflammation relationship.

description: We report on the study of the impact of the finite resolution of the chirp rate applied on the frequency difference between the Raman lasers beamsplitters onto the phase of a free fall atom gravimeter. This chirp induces a phase shift that compensates the one due to gravity acceleration, allowing for its precise determination in terms of frequencies. In practice, it is most often generated by a direct digital synthesizer (DDS). Besides the effect of eventual truncation errors, we evaluate here the bias on the g measurement due to the finite time and frequency resolution of the chirp generated by the DDS, and show that it can compromise the measurement accuracy. However, this effect can be mitigated by an adequate choice of the DDS chirp parameters resulting from a trade-off between interferometer phase resolution and induced bias.

We perform a direct simulation at the masses of the strange and the charm quarks at four different lattice spacings from approximately 0.1 fm to 0.05 fm. Fully non perturbative O(a)-improvement is employed. After taking the continuum limit we arrive at a value of f_D_s=252(9) MeV, when setting the scale with the Kaon decay constant f_K=160 MeV. Setting the scale with the nucleon mass instead leads to a decrease of about 20 MeV of f_D_s.

description: Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is pivotal for probing the microstructure of the rapidly-developing fetal brain. However, fetal motion during scans and its interaction with magnetic field inhomogeneities result in artifacts and data scattering across spatial and angular domains. The effects of those artifacts are more pronounced in high-angular resolution fetal dMRI, where signal-to-noise ratio is very low. Those effects lead to biased estimates and compromise the consistency and reliability of dMRI analysis. This work presents HAITCH, the first and the only publicly available tool to correct and reconstruct multi-shell high-angular resolution fetal dMRI data. HAITCH offers several technical advances that include a blip-reversed dual-echo acquisition for dynamic distortion correction, advanced motion correction for model-free and robust reconstruction, optimized multi-shell design for enhanced information capture and increased tolerance to motion, and outlier detection for improved reconstruction fidelity. The framework is open-source, flexible, and can be used to process any type of fetal dMRI data including single-echo or single-shell acquisitions, but is most effective when used with multi-shell multi-echo fetal dMRI data that cannot be processed with any of the existing tools. Validation experiments on real fetal dMRI scans demonstrate significant improvements and accurate correction across diverse fetal ages and motion levels. HAITCH successfully removes artifacts and reconstructs high-fidelity fetal dMRI data suitable for advanced diffusion modeling, including fiber orientation distribution function estimation. These advancements pave the way for more reliable analysis of the fetal brain microstructure and tractography under challenging imaging conditions.

description: We study topological and integrable aspects of $\hat{c}=1$ strings. We consider the circle line theories 0A and 0B at particular radii, and the super affine theories at their self-dual radii. We construct their ground rings, identify them with certain quotients of the conifold, and suggest topological B-model descriptions. We consider the partition functions, correlators and Ward identities, and construct a Kontsevich-like matrix model. We then study all these aspects via the topological B-model description. Finally, we analyse the corresponding Dijkgraaf-Vafa type matrix models and quiver gauge theories.

description: This study examines the relationship between yields of modern rice varieties and three major weather variables | maximum temperature, minimum temperature, and precipitation. Data from a long-running farm-level survey in the Philippines, with rich information on planted rice varieties, allows us to estimate fixed effect econometric models of rice yields. We find that increases in temperature, especially minimum temperatures, have substantial negative impacts on rice yields. Yield response to temperatures vary across different varietal groups. Early modern varieties, bred primarily for higher yields, pest resistance, and/or grain quality traits, demonstrate improved heat-stress resistance relative to traditional varieties. Moreover, the most recent varietal group bred for better tolerance to abiotic stresses are even more resilient to warming temperatures. These results provide some evidence that public investments in breeding rice varieties more tolerant to warming temperatures have been successful, and continued investments in these breeding efforts are warranted.

description: In practice, engineering optimization problems come in various complexities that are different from the usual problem formulations used in a single academic study. To solve such unconventional description of problems, optimization experts must use different tools and tricks first to reformulate the problems as structured optimization problems and then to use an appropriate adaptation of existing optimization algorithms to solve them. In this article, a design optimization case study from the automobile industry is narrated, stating three different problem solving scenarios arising sequentially after each problem is solved. The article shows how each problem description can be formulated as a suitable optimization problem and how a suitable and existing optimization algorithm can be modified to find the respective solutions of interest to the engineer. The sequential reformulation of problems and their solutions not only allow engineers eventually to discover the final solutions of interest, the whole process is extremely rewarding to them in terms of knowledge gathered about alternative potential solutions of the problem. Although applied to a single automotive design problem in this article, the philosophy and methods described here are generic and should motivate both engineering optimization researchers and the industry to pursue more such studies.

description: The UK's Digital Curation Centre has recently developed DMPOnline, a web-based service that guides researchers through the process of writing a structured and standardised data management plan, mapped to a wide range of major research funding agencies. Our project seeks to augment the DMPOnline tool with an information risk management tool that would assist data managers in the development and maintenance of formal Information Security Management Systems in line with the ISO-27001:2005 international standard for information security. Since the DMPOnline is currently a simple checklist of questions we aim to refine this model. This project will assess the viability of creating an extensible architecture for data management planning through the use of DDI (an established metadata standard) and related tooling. A pre-existing open source DDI 3.1 registry and editors will be extended, allowing for the creation of semantically rich project-specific representations of data management plans through a DDI broker, providing the basis of interoperability with a set of data management services. We hope to demonstrate the value of data management planning in the provision and maintainance of effective information security.

description: The aim of this study was to investigate human erythrocytes as a carrier for targeted drug delivery of primaquine (PQ). The process of PQ loading in human erythrocytes, as well as the effect of PQ loading on the oxidative status of erythrocytes, was also studied. At PQ concentrations of 2, 4, 6, and 8 mg/mL and an incubation time of 2 h, the ratios of the concentrations of PQ entrapped in erythrocytes to that in the incubation medium were 0.515, 0.688, 0.697 and 0.788, respectively. The maximal decline of erythrocyte reduced glutathione content was observed at 8 mg/mL of PQ compared with native erythrocytes p < 0.001. In contrast, malondialdehyde and protein carbonyl were significantly increased in cells loaded with PQ (p < 0.001). Furthermore, osmotic fragility of PQ carrier erythrocytes was increased in comparison with unloaded cells. Electron microscopy revealed spherocyte formation with PQ carrier erythrocytes. PQ-loaded cells showed sustained drug release over a 48 h period. Erythrocytes were loaded with PQ successfully, but there were some biochemical as well as physiological changes that resulted from the effect of PQ on the oxidative status of drug-loaded erythrocytes. These changes may result in favorable targeting of PQ-loaded cells to reticulo-endothelial organs. The relative impact of these changes remains to be explored in ongoing animal studies.

description: With many Hamiltonians one can naturally associate a |Psi|^2-distributed Markov process. For nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, this process is in fact deterministic, and is known as Bohmian mechanics. For the Hamiltonian of a quantum field theory, it is typically a jump process on the configuration space of a variable number of particles. We define these processes for regularized quantum field theories, thereby generalizing previous work of John S. Bell [Phys. Rep. 137, 49 (1986)] and of ourselves [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 36, 4143 (2003)]. We introduce a formula expressing the jump rates in terms of the interaction Hamiltonian, and establish a condition for finiteness of the rates.

Credit Market Imperfections, Urban Land Rents and the Henry George Theorem

description: This paper investigates the credit market impact on urban land rents and the tax policy implications. We introduce a borrowing cost and a down-payment requirement in the canonical urban land use model. We first show that both imperfections lower equilibrium land prices in the most attractive city locations. This downward effect is more likely to occur when land is scarce and cities are large and endowed with inefficient transport infrastructures. Only the down-payment requirement generates utility differentials among homogeneous households (symmetry-breaking). We further show that the Henry George Theorem, which posits that a confiscatory tax on land rents is sufficient to finance public goods, needs to be amended as aggregate land rents are lower than public expenditures. Depending on the nature of mortgage market imperfections, we derive optimal tax schedules.
Nonlocality and the Correlation of Measurement Bases

description: Nonlocal nature apparently shown in entanglement is one of the most striking features of quantum theory. We examine the locality assumption in Bell-type proofs for entangled qubits, i.e. the outcome of a qubit at one end is independent of the basis choice at the other end. It has recently been claimed that in order to properly incorporate the phenomenon of self-observation, the Heisenberg picture with time going backwards provides a consistent description. We show that, if this claim holds true, the assumption in nonlocality proofs that basis choices at two ends are independent of each other may no longer be true, and may pose a threat to the validity of Bell-type proofs.
