description: Controlling soft robots with precision is a challenge due in large part to the difficulty of constructing models that are amenable to model-based control design techniques. Koopman Operator Theory offers a way to construct explicit linear dynamical models of soft robots and to control them using established model-based linear control methods. This method is data-driven, yet unlike other data-driven models such as neural networks, it yields an explicit control-oriented linear model rather than just a "black-box" input-output mapping. This work describes this Koopman-based system identification method and its application to model predictive controller design. A model and MPC controller of a pneumatic soft robot arm was constructed via the method, and its performance was evaluated over several trajectory following tasks in the real-world. On all of the tasks, the Koopman-based MPC controller outperformed a benchmark MPC controller based on a linear state-space model of the same system.
Transition to Long Range Magnetic Order in the Highly Frustrated Insulating Pyrochlore Antiferromagnet Gd_2Ti_2O_7

description: Experimental evidence from measurements of the a.c. and d.c. susceptibility, and heat capacity data show that the pyrochlore structure oxide, Gd_2Ti_2O_7, exhibits short range order that starts developing at 30K, as well as long range magnetic order at $T\sim 1$K. The Curie-Weiss temperature, $θ_{CW}$ = -9.6K, is largely due to exchange interactions. Deviations from the Curie-Weiss law occur below $\sim$10K while magnetic heat capacity contributions are found at temperatures above 20K. A sharp maximum in the heat capacity at $T_c=0.97$K signals a transition to a long range ordered state, with the magnetic specific accounting for only $\sim$ 50% of the magnetic entropy. The heat capacity above the phase transition can be modeled by assuming that a distribution of random fields acts on the $^8S_{7/2}$ ground state for Gd$^{3+}$. There is no frequency dependence to the a.c. susceptibility in either the short range or long range ordered regimes, hence suggesting the absence of any spin-glassy behavior. Mean field theoretical calculations show that no long range ordered ground state exists for the conditions of nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic exchange and long range dipolar couplings. At the mean-field level, long range order at various commensurate or incommensurate wave vectors is found only upon inclusion of exchange interactions beyond nearest-neighbor exchange and dipolar coupling. The properties of Gd$_2Ti_2O_7 are compared with other geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets such as the Gd_3Ga_5O_{12} gadolinium gallium garnet, RE_2Ti_2O_7 pyrochlores where RE = Tb, Ho and Tm, and Heisenberg-type pyrochlore such as Y_2Mo_2O_7, Tb_2Mo_2O_7, and spinels such as ZnFe_2O_4

description: Implant-related infections are a significant concern in orthopedic surgery. A novel anti-infective implant coating made of bioresorbable polymer with silver nitrate was developed. A controlled release of silver ions into the vicinity of the prosthesis can be triggered on-demand by extracorporeal shock waves to effectively combat all clinically relevant microorganisms. Microscopy techniques were used to examine the effects of shock wave application on coated titanium discs. Cytotoxicity was measured using a fibroblast proliferation assay. The anti-infective effect was assessed by monitoring the growth curves of three bacterial strains and by conventional culture. Microscopic analysis confirmed surface disruption of the coatings, with a complete release of silver in the focus area after shock wave application. Spectrometry detected an increase in silver concentration in the surrounding of the discs that surpassed the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for both 'S. epidermidis' RP62A and 'E. coli' ATCC 25922. The released silver demonstrated an anti-infective effect, significantly inhibiting bacterial growth, especially at 6% and 8% silver concentrations. Cytotoxicity testing showed decreasing fibroblast viability with increasing silver concentration in the coating, with 6% silver maintaining viability above 25%. Compared to a commonly used electroplated silver coating on the market, the new coating demonstrated superior antimicrobial efficacy and lower cytotoxicity.

description: The prediction of the long-term impact of a scientific article is challenging task, addressed by the bibliometrician through resorting to a proxy whose reliability increases with the breadth of the citation window. In the national research assessment exercises using metrics the citation window is necessarily short, but in some cases is sufficient to advise the use of simple citations. For the Italian VQR 2011-2014, the choice was instead made to adopt a linear weighted combination of citations and journal metric percentiles, with weights differentiated by discipline and year. Given the strategic importance of the exercise, whose results inform the allocation of a significant share of resources for the national academic system, we examined whether the predictive power of the proposed indicator is stronger than the simple citation count. The results show the opposite, for all discipline in the sciences and a citation window above two years.

Furthermore, we show that the maximal Poisson subalgebra of P containing {1,S_1,S_2,S_3} that can be so quantized is just that generated by {1,S_1,S_2,S_3}.

description: Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate different feed types collected from two districts (Ada’a and Adama zuria) of two production systems (urban and peri-urban) based on season’s (dry and wet) in East Shoa Zone, for their macro and micro mineral concentrations. Feeds in the selected districts comprised of roughages, concentrates, and non-conventional feeds. All feed samples were taken directly from the field supplied by the farmers. The feed samples were analyzed for the macro and micro minerals namely Ca, P, Mg, Cu, Fe, Zn, and Co, using atomic absorption flame emission spectrometer and P concentration was measured by the spectrophotometer. The critical level (CL) used in this article is defined as the concentration of minerals below the level considering the requirements for dairy cows. The mean calcium concentrations in roughage varied from (0.13 to 0.55%); concentrate (0.14 to 0.64%) and non-conventional feed (0.34 to 0.69%) DM respectively.

description: Supersymmetric theories with the same bosonic content but different fermions, aka \emph{twins}, were thought to exist only for supergravity. Here we show that pairs of super conformal field theories, for example exotic $\mathcal{N}=3$ and $\mathcal{N}=1$ theories in $D=4$ spacetime dimensions, can also be twin. We provide evidence from three different perspectives: (i) a twin S-fold construction, (ii) a double-copy argument and (iii) by identifying candidate twin holographically dual gauged supergravity theories. Furthermore, twin W-supergravity theories then follow by applying the double-copy prescription to exotic super conformal field theories.

description: Several possible statistical interpretations of the null result of the KARMEN 2 neutrino oscillation experiment are discussed with the aim of clarifying the implications of the fact that KARMEN 2 did not observe any of the expected background events. The formalism that allows to take into account the error of the expected mean background in a Poisson process with background is presented and applied to the statistical analysis of the KARMEN 2 null result. The possibility of ignoring the expected mean background calculated for the KARMEN 2 experiment is discussed and it is shown that the resulting exclusion curves are ultra-conservative, but may be a safe choice in such a controversial case. It is also shown that the sensitivity curves of neutrino oscillation experiments cannot be considered as exclusion curves. The implications of the different statistical analyses of the KARMEN 2 null result for the compatibility of the results of the KARMEN 2 and LSND experiments is discussed.

description: We study the spin--boson model with a sub--Ohmic bath using infinitesimal unitary transformations. Contrary to some results reported in the literature we find a zero temperature transition from an untrapped state for small coupling to a trapped state for strong coupling. We obtain an explicit expression for the renormalized level spacing as a function of the bare papameters of the system. Furthermore we show that typical dynamical equilibrium correlation functions exhibit an algebaric decay at zero temperature.

description: Magnolol (MG) and Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. oil (BJO) possess synergetic anti-tumor effects, but have poor water solubility and stability, which results in low oral bioavailability. The MG loaded self-microemulsion drug delivery system (MG-SMDDS) with BJO as oil phase component was utilized to improve the cellular uptake and synergetic anti-tumor effects. Compatibility study and pseudoternary phase diagram (PTPD) were respectively employed to screen for the composition and proportion of oil phase in the formulation. Central composite design-effect surface method was applied to optimize proportion of each formulation condition. The droplet size, ζ-potential, colloid stability, encapsulation rate (ER) and in vitro dissolution rate of MG-SMDDS were evaluated. Furthermore, cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of the microemulsion on HepG2 cells were assessed. The optimal composition of MG-SMDDS was: MG (9.09%), castor oil (7.40%), BJO (2.47%), Cremophor EL 35 (54.04%) and 1, 2-propanediol (27.01%). The MG-SMDDS exhibited satisfactory droplet size, ζ-potential, colloid stability and ER, as well as faster dissolution rate than free MG. More importantly, SMEDDS containing BJO could enhance the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of free BJO and free MG on tumor cells. The BJO self-microemulsion delivery technique can provide an idea for design of oral delivery vehicles based on BJO.

description: Quantum computation by the adiabatic theorem requires a slowly varying Hamiltonian with respect to the spectral gap. We show that the Landau-Zener-Stückelberg oscillation phenomenon, that naturally occurs in quantum two level systems under non-adiabatic periodic drive, can be exploited to find the ground state of an N dimensional Grover Hamiltonian. The total runtime of this method is $O(\sqrt{2^n})$ which is equal to the computational time of the Grover algorithm in the quantum circuit model. An additional periodic drive can suppress a large subset of Hamiltonian control errors using coherent destruction of tunneling, providing superior performance compared to standard algorithms.

description: It has been shown recently that there exist analytical solutions of the Yang-Mills equations for non-Abelian Weizsäcker-Williams fields which describe the distribution of gluons in large nuclei at small x. These solutions however depend on the color charge distribution at large rapidities. We here construct a model of the color charge distribution of partons in the fragmentation region and use it to compute the boost covariant momentum distributions of wee gluons. The phenomenological applications of our results are discussed.

description: The dynamics of polymeric salt solutions are presented. The salt consists of chains $\rm A$ and $\rm B$, which are chemically different and interact with a Flory-interaction parameter $χ$, the $\rm A$ chain ends carry a positive charge whereas the $\rm B$ chain ends are modified by negative charges. The static structure factor shows a peak corresponding to a micro phase separation. At low momentum transfer, the interdiffusion mode is driven by electrostatics and is of the plasmon-type, but with an unusually low frequency, easily accessible by experiments. This is due to the polymer connectivity that introduces high friction and amplifies the charge scattering thus allowing for low charge densities. The interdiffusion mode shows a minimum (critical slowing down) at finite $k$ when the interaction parameter increases we find then a low $k$ frequency quasi-plateau.

description: We experimentally realize cavity cooling of all three translational degrees of motion of a levitated nanoparticle in vacuum. The particle is trapped by a cavity-independent optical tweezer and coherently scatters tweezer light into the blue detuned cavity mode. For vacuum pressures around $10^{-5}\,{\rm mbar}$, minimal temperatures along the cavity axis in the mK regime are observed. Simultaneously, the center-of-mass (COM) motion along the other two spatial directions is cooled to minimal temperatures of a few hundred $\rm mK$. Measuring temperatures and damping rates as the pressure is varied, we find that the cooling efficiencies depend on the particle position within the intracavity standing wave. This data and the behaviour of the COM temperatures as functions of cavity detuning and tweezer power are consistent with a theoretical analysis of the experiment. Experimental limits and opportunities of our approach are outlined.

description: The effect of the patterning process on the nonlinearity of the microwave surface resistance $R_S$ of YBCO thin films is investigated. With the use of a sapphire dielectric resonator and a stripline resonator, the microwave $R_S$ of YBCO thin films was measured before and after the patterning process, as a function of temperature and the rf peak magnetic field in the film. The microwave loss was also modeled, assuming a $J_{rf}^2$ dependence of $Z_S(J_{rf})$ on current density $J_{rf}$. Experimental and modeled results show that the patterning has no observable effect on the microwave residual $R_S$ or on the power dependence of $R_S$.

title: Investigating the direct derivation of device identity from low-level hardware devices
Creators: name: Khanna, Pooja Rajesh
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2024

description: The security and privacy are one of the top priorities in the growing field of Internet of Things (IoT), as industries are expanding to incorporate wireless technology to generate valuable data. Adversaries attack the vulnerable node in the system to gain a wider access into the network. This thesis utilises the premise of ICMetrics technology to introduce a novel technique to secure low - level hardware used to build IoT applications. Previously, the technique has been used on off - the shelf IoT devices to generate keys and use it for authentication.
Building on the work of ICMetrics technology, this thesis aims to cover a research gap by using cost - effective, low - resource embedded devices like Raspberry Pi and the basis of the ICMetrics technology i.e., using internal characteristics of the devices and utilise it to identify the devices uniquely. The work performed in this thesis aims to explore the operational features (memory - based) from the devices to generate the device identity. 
Based on the Literature Review, Raspberry Pi has served as a gateway for several large - scale attacks by using its vulnerabilities. Hence, we aim to exploit the uniqueness shown by these devices based on the working, environment where these devices are deployed and the application/processes running on the devices by exploiting dynamic operational features from them. The key contribution of this thesis is exploring features that are multimodal in nature and by utilizing the relationship between the modes, a novel classification technique is built which takes in account the multimodal nature of the features to gain higher accuracy in identifying devices.
Hence, making the widely used Raspberry Pi devices more secure and in case of any attacks, the characteristics of the devices change prevents the critical data leak from the devices & network.

description: The Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino data suggest existence of the large lepton-flavor violating (LFV) interaction in the higher energy scale. If the minimal supersymmetric standard model is extended to have right-handed neutrinos, the left-handed sleptons in the second and third generations are expected to have the LFV masses in the minimal supergravity scenario. In this article we study the LFV signals in the left-handed slepton production at $μ^+μ^-$ colliders and $\e^+\e^-$ linear colliders (LC's), $μ^+μ^-(\e^+\e^-)\toτμ+4jets + \E$ and $μ^+μ^-(\e^+\e^-)\toτμl+ 2jets+ \E$. The main background comes from decay of a tau lepton into a muon in the lepton-flavor conserving slepton pair production. They are significantly reduced by the energy and the impact parameter cuts for the muon. At $μ^+μ^-$ colliders (LC's) it may be possible to reach the mixing angle $\sin 2θ_{\tildeν} \gsim 0.1(0.5)$ and the mass difference $Δm_{\tildeν}\gsim 0.1(0.4)$ GeV for the sneutrinos in the second and third generations at the statistical significance of $3σ$. Such small mass difference and a mixing angle may be induced radiatively even if the Yukawa coupling constant for the tau neutrino is of the order of 0.1.

description: We examine the low energy structure of N=1 supersymmetric SO(10) gauge theory with matter chiral superfields in N_Q spinor and N_f vector representations. We construct a dual to this model based upon an SU(N_f+2N_Q-7) x Sp(2N_Q-2) gauge group without utilizing deconfinement methods. This product theory generalizes all previously known Pouliot-type duals to SO(N_c) models with spinor and vector matter. It also yields large numbers of new dual pairs along various flat directions. The dual description of the SO(10) theory satisfies multiple consistency checks including an intricate renormalization group flow analysis which links it with Seiberg's duality transformations. We discuss its implications for building grand unified theories that contain all Standard Model fields as composite degrees of freedom.

description: We obtain the pion and the kaon parton distribution functions from the eigenstates of a light front effective Hamiltonian in the constituent quark-antiquark representation suitable for low-momentum scale applications. By taking these scales as the only free parameters, the valence quark distribution functions of the pion, after QCD evolution, are consistent with the data from the FNAL-E615 experiment. The ratio of the up quark distribution of the kaon to that of the pion also agrees with the CERN-NA3 experiment. Supplemented by known parton distribution functions for the nucleons, we further obtain the cross section consistent with experimental data for the ${π^-\rm{nucleus}}\rightarrow{μ^+μ^-X}$ Drell-Yan process.

description: Objective: The objective of our research and this paper is to provide a sufficient treatment, mainly symptomatic, of autism spectrum disorders which remain terra incognita to contemporary neural science. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) require a comprehensive multimodal approach. Approach: In our experiment, we used the ‘cavity structure effect’ and the pharmacochemical effects of plant-derived metabolites to stimulate and ‘functionally correct’, as much as possible, the nerve system of children up to 7 years of age, diagnosed with autistic disorders. Main Results: Under the beneficial impact of the above-mentioned physical and chemical phenomena, an improvement in the overall performance of the examined patients was observed. Significance: This paper should serve as an initial theoretical and, to a certain extent, practical basis for more extensive research and appropriately designed clinical studies.

In particular it analyzed their role to empower democracy due to their capacity to encourage the constituents to engage in public debates on political issues and to make informed voting decisions. Incorporating theories on mediapolis, celebrity, and intermedia agenda setting as well as employing content analysis as analytical tools, it explored the coexistence and interactions of social media, celebrity, and traditional media power in the election and how such accounts had implications on the capacity of social media to empower democracy in the country.

description: Within the Kubo-Greenwood formalism we use the fully relativistic, spin-polarized, screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method together with the coherent-potential approximation for layered systems to calculate the resistivity for the permalloy series Ni$_{c}$Fe$_{1-c}$. We are able to reproduce the variation of the resistivity across the entire series; notably the discontinuous behavior in the vicinity of the structural phase transition from bcc to fcc. The absolute values for the resistivity are within a factor of two of the experimental data. Also the giant magnetoresistance of a series of permalloy-based spin-valve structures is estimated; we are able to reproduce the trends and values observed on prototypical spin-valve structures.

description: In Projekten der Gesundheitsförderung nimmt die Partizipation von Jugendlichen einen zunehmenden Stellenwert ein, verbunden mit der Zielsetzung, gesundheitsförderliche Lebenswelten zu schaffen. Der Anspruch, dass Jugendliche an der Gesundheitsförderung partizipieren, lässt sich ebenfalls aus der Ottawa-Charta ableiten (WHO, 1986). Wie die Partizipation Jugendlicher bei der Ideenentwicklung, Planung, Umsetzung und Auswertung von Projekten im Bereich der Gesundheitsförderung erfolgreich gelingen kann, wird im Leitfaden zu Partizipation von Jugendlichen in Projekten der Gesundheitsförderung (DOJ/FHNW/HETSL, 2023) aufgezeigt. Der Leitfaden bietet praxisnahe Unterstützung für KAP-Verantwortliche, Fachstellen und Projektleitungen im Bereich der Gesundheitsförderung. Eine kurze Zusammenfassung, worauf es bei der Partizipation von Jugendlichen zu achten gilt und wie Partizipation am besten gelingt, bietet zudem diese Checkliste.

Distribution of overlap profiles in the one-dimensional Kac-Hopfield model

description: We study a one-dimensional version of the Hopfield model with long, but finite range interactions below the critical temperature. In the thermodynamic limit we obtain large deviation estimates for the distribution of the ``local'' overlaps, the range of the interaction, $γ^{-1}$, being the large parameter. We show in particular that the local overlaps in a typical Gibbs configuration are constant and equal to one of the mean-field equilibrium values on a scale $o(\g^{-2})$. We also give estimates on the size of typical ``jumps''. i.e. the regions where transitions from one equilibrium value to another take place. Contrary to the situation in the ferromagnetic Kac-model, the structure of the profiles is found to be governed by the quenched disorder rather than by entropy.

Optimal designs for $K$-factor two-level models with first-order interactions on a symmetrically restricted design region

description: We develop $D$-optimal designs for linear models with first-order interactions on a subset of the $2^K$ full factorial design region, when both the number of factors set to the higher level and the number of factors set to the lower level are simultaneously bounded by the same threshold. It turns out that in the case of narrow margins the optimal design is concentrated only on those design points, for which either the threshold is attained or the numbers of high and low levels are as equal as possible. In the case of wider margins the settings are more spread and the resulting optimal designs are as efficient as a full factorial design. These findings also apply to other optimality criteria.

However, it holds the potential to transform lives, making it crucial for policymakers and regulatory authorities to take action. The Human Microbiome Action project aims to illuminate the complexities and uncertainties in human microbiome research. By tackling intricate questions in this field, the project seeks to provide a clearer understanding and insights into human microbiomes. This EU-funded project is striving to provide consensus and recommendations about the future of this evolving field across Europe and beyond.
Supersymmetry breaking in M-theory and gaugino condensation

description: We argue that supersymmetry breaking by gaugino condensation in the strongly coupled heterotic string can be described by an analogue of Scherk-Schwarz compactification on the eleventh dimension in M-theory. The M-theory scale is identified with the gauge coupling unification mass, whereas the radius of the eleventh dimension $ρ$ is at an intermediate scale $ρ^{-1}\sim 10^{12}$ GeV. At the lowest order, supersymmetry is broken only in the gravitational and moduli sector at a scale $m_{3/2}\simρ^{-1}$, while it is mediated by gravitational interactions to the observable world. Computation of the mass splittings yields in general a hierarchy of soft masses at the TeV scale $(\simρ^{-2}/M_p)$ with matter scalars much heavier than gauginos.

The dispersion of the citation distribution of top scientists' publications

description: This work explores the distribution of citations for the publications of top scientists. A first objective is to find out whether the 80-20 Pareto rule applies, that is if 80% of the citations to a top scientist's work concern 20% of their publications. Observing that the rule does not apply, we also measure the dispersion of the citation distribution by means of the Gini coefficient. Further, we investigate the question of what share of a top scientist' publications go uncited. Finally, we study the relation between the dispersion of the citation distribution and the share of uncited publications. As well as the overall level, the analyses are carried out at the field and discipline level, to assess differences across them.
A sharp upper bound on the spectral gap for graphene quantum dots

description: The main result of this paper is a sharp upper bound on the first positive eigenvalue of Dirac operators in two dimensional simply connected $C^3$-domains with infinite mass boundary conditions. This bound is given in terms of a conformal variation, explicit geometric quantities and of the first eigenvalue for the disk. Its proof relies on the min-max principle applied to the squares of these Dirac operators. A suitable test function is constructed by means of a conformal map. This general upper bound involves the norm of the derivative of the underlying conformal map in the Hardy space $\mathcal{H}^2(\mathbb{D})$. Then, we apply known estimates of this norm for convex and for nearly circular, star-shaped domains in order to get explicit geometric upper bounds on the eigenvalue. These bounds can be re-interpreted as reverse Faber-Krahn-type inequalities under adequate geometric constraints.

description: It is well known that the space of invariant probability measures for transitive sub-shifts of finite type is a Poulsen simplex. In this article we prove that in the non-compact setting, for a large family of transitive countable Markov shifts, the space of invariant sub-probability measures is a Poulsen simplex and that its extreme points are the ergodic invariant probability measures together with the zero measure. In particular we obtain that the space of invariant probability measures is a Poulsen simplex minus a vertex and the corresponding convex combinations. Our results apply to finite entropy non-locally compact transitive countable Markov shifts and to every locally compact transitive countable Markov shift. In order to prove these results we introduce a topology on the space of measures that generalizes the vague topology to a class of non-locally compact spaces, the topology of convergence on cylinders. We also prove analogous results for suspension flows defined over countable Markov shifts.

description: The density matrix renormalization group method is generalized to one dimensional random systems. Using this method, the energy gap distribution of the spin-1/2 random antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain is calculated. The results are consistent with the predictions of the renormalization group theory demonstrating the effectiveness of the present method in random systems. The possible application of the present method to other random systems is discussed.
