THE WARM NUCLEAR ROTATION IN 174W:CONSERVATION OF THE K QUANTUM NUMBERIN THE ORDER TO CHAOS REGION
Creators: name: VANDONE, VALERIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: The transition between order and chaos is a fascinating subject which is currently investigated in different research fields from solid state to nuclear physics.
At very low excitation energy, the nucleus behaves as an ordered system with well-defined quantum numbers and associated selection rules. As the internal energy increases, there is a gradual loss of selection rules and quantum numbers lose their meaning. The extreme regime is the chaotic region of the compound nucleus, where only energy, spin and parity survive. A useful probe to study the evolution of the selection rules with temperature is the K-quantum number. By studying the ?-decay flow in coincidence with low-K and high-K states, information on the order-to-chaos transition can be obtained.
An interesting physics case is 174W which is characterized by two high-K bands (K=8 and K=12) built on isomeric states, with lifetimes longer than 120 ns.
This nucleus has been populated by the fusion-evaporation reaction of 50Ti (at 217 MeV) on 128Te. The experiment was performed at Legnaro National Laboratories, using the AGATA Demonstrator, coupled to the HELENA array.
To probe the gradual weakening of the selection rules on the K-quantum number with temperature, ?-? matrices selecting low-K and high-K structures have been analysed by statistical fluctuation techniques, allowing to estimate the number of low-K and high-K bands and their correlations.
The interpretation of the data has been based on a Monte Carlo simulation code that reproduces the ?-decay flux of 174W, using as input microscopic Cranked Shell Model calculations at finite temperature.
The study of the warm rotation in 174W has evidenced the importance of introducing a quenching factor in the E1 decay between low-K and high-K bands, which gives reduced hindrance values f? similar to the ones extracted from standard discrete spectroscopy studies of high-K isomers.
For the first time, it is demonstrated that K-mixing is a general mechanism which well explains the hindrance to the ?-decay between low- and high-K states for both regular excited bands and isomeric states, as a function of temperature.

description: We analyse the parallel hybrid texture structures in the charged lepton and the neutrino sector. These parallel hybrid texture structures have physical implications as they cannot be obtained from arbitrary lepton mass matrices through weak basis transformations. The total sixty parallel hybrid texture structures can be grouped into twelve classes, and all the hybrid textures in the same class have identical physical implications. We examine all the twelve classes under the assumption of non-factorizable phases in the neutrino mass matrix. Five out of the total twelve classes are found to be phenomenologically disallowed. We study the phenomenological implications of the allowed classes for 1-3 mixing angle, Majorana and Dirac-type $CP$ violating phases. Interesting constraints on effective Majorana mass are obtained for all the allowed classes.

RIDOTTA ATTIVITA' DEL SISTEMA OSSIDO NITRICO/GMP CICLICO PIASTRINICO NELL'IPERALDOSTERONISMO PRIMARIO
Creators: name: RESCALDANI, MARTA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: Rationale: Nitric oxide (NO) exerts a vasodilating effect and inhibits platelet aggregation via the second messenger cyclic GMP (cGMP). Oxidative stress associated with hypertension and major cardiovascular risk factors inhibits NO/cGMP activity. Aldosterone (Aldo) exerts a potent pressor effect via its mineralocorticoid activity; moreover, Aldo increases oxidative stress and impairs endothelial NO availability in experimental and clinical conditions.
Aim:To evaluate whether also platelet NO/cGMP activity is impaired by chronic Aldo excess, we compared platelet cGMP levels in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and in a control group of essential hypertensives (EH).
Methods: In patients with PA (n=12 males) and in EH (n=32) matched for sex, age and clinic systolic and diastolic blood pressure values (SBP, DBP), venous blood was sampled for plasma renin activity (PRA), Aldo, aldo-renin ratio (ARR), potassium (K+) and platelet cGMP (RIA on acid extracts of washed platelets) after a 60 minute supine rest.
Results: PRA was lower and Aldo was higher in PA than in EH (0.1� 0.1 vs 0.4�0.1 and 25.5�8.8 vs 8.1�0.7, respectively, p<0.05), with similar SBP and DBP values. Potassium was lower in IPA than in EH (3.5�0.2 vs 4.1�.05, p<0.05)
Platelet cGMP, marker of NO activity, was lower in hypokalemic patients with PA than in EH (5.1�0.4 vs 7.1�0.5 pM/10^9 platelets, p<0.05).
Conclusions: These data are compatible with an impairment of the platelet NO/cGMP system in primary aldosteronism as compared to essential hypertension. To the extent that this defect is associated with an increased platelet aggregability, these data may provide a pathogenetic mechanism for the prevalence of thrombotic events in patients with primary aldosteronism.

description: We carry out lattice calculations of the spectrum of confining flux tubes that wind around a spatial torus of variable length l, in 2+1 dimensions. We compare the energies of the lowest c.30 states to the free string Nambu-Goto model and to recent results on the universal properties of effective string actions. Our most useful calculations are in SU(6) at a small lattice spacing, which we check is very close to the large-N continuum limit. We find that the energies, En(l), are remarkably close to the predictions of the free string Nambu-Goto model, even well below the critical length at which the expansion of the Nambu-Goto energy in powers of 1/l diverges and the series needs to be resummed. Our analysis of the ground state supports the universality of the O(1/l) and the O(1/l^3) corrections to l.sigma, and we find that the deviations from Nambu-Goto at small l prefer a leading correction that is O(1/l^7), consistent with theoretical expectations. We find that the low-lying states that contain a single phonon excitation are also consistent with the leading O(1/l^7) correction dominating down to the smallest values of l. By contrast our analysis of the other light excited states clearly shows that for these states the corrections at smaller l resum to a much smaller effective power. Finally, and in contrast to our recent calculations in D=3+1, we find no evidence for the presence of any non-stringy states that could indicate the excitation of massive flux tube modes.

Modeling of agglomerate abrasion in fluidized beds
Creators: name: Palanisamy, Karthikeyan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Agglomeration occurs in fluidized beds in many industrial processes. It can be a desirable phenomenon, for instance in the pharmaceutical industries, or undesirable, as when it occurs in the Fluid Cokers used in bitumen processing. Excessive agglomerate growth can lead to a reduced efficiency of the process and ultimately to defluidization. Mathematical modeling can provide insights into agglomerate formation and breakage. Modeling the physics of agglomerate breakage is complicated since the breakage model needs to account for a number of processes occurring inside the fluidized bed. Breakage of agglomerates can happen due to fragmentation (high energy based) or abrasion (low energy based), or a combination of both. Abrasion is the process of losing one or a few of the particles from the surface of the agglomerate. It occurs continuously inside the fluidized beds and cannot be neglected for Fluid Cokers. Fragmentation, on the other hand, is the fracture of an agglomerate into pieces due to the breakage of multiple bonds inside it. In this work, a physical model that describes abrasion is derived utilizing the concepts of Kinetic Theory of Granular Flows (KTGF). The model considers the collisions between the different solid phases—particles and agglomerates to obtain the frequency of abrasion and mass transfer between the phases. A Eulerian-Eulerian formulation along with KTGF is used to simulate abrasion of a large agglomerate inside a fluidized bed. All the simulations were performed with commercial CFD code ANSYS Fluent 16, which was augmented by user-defined functions for different experimental conditions and different bed materials using published experimental data. The comparison between the modeling predictions and experimental results demonstrated a good qualitative agreement with some quantitative variations. It was found that the model tends to underestimate the amount of abrasion for capillary dominant system possibly due to neglecting the fragmentation phenomenon in the model. Also the model over predicts abrasion for viscous dominant set up. At the end, a mechanistic approach is suggested for future modeling of agglomerate fragmentation.
THE ROLE OF MIR199A IN BREAST CANCER PROGRESSION AND METASTASIS
Creators: name: MARTINO, VALENTINA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: Metastasis remains one of the leading causes of death in cancer patients. The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is proposed as a preliminary event underlying the metastatic process, allowing tumor cells to migrate and colonize new tissues and organs. EMT is a trans-differentiation program active during embryonic development that produces mesechymal-like cells from epithelial sheets by loss of cell adhesion and leading to increased cell motility. Dissecting molecular pathways associated to EMT and to its metastasis-promoting potential is essential to develop therapeutic strategies against cancer metastasis.
Our group developed a model of mammary carcinogenesis based on the rat cancer stem cell line LA7, that when engrafted at the single cell level in immuno-compromised mice, recapitulates the entire process of tumor development including the EMT process that lead to metastasis formation, through the generation of fibroblast-like cells (LA7-Elongated cells). Using the LA7 system we found miR-199a up regulated during in vivo EMT transition. Ectopic expression of the miR-199a in LA7 induced cell shape modification and changes in marker expression coherent with an epithelial to mesenchymal trans-differentiation, recapitulating the fibroblast-like LA7 counterpart phenotype (LA7-Elongated). These results suggest that miR-199a is an effective inducer of EMT. We demonstrate that the action of miR-199a is directed on adherens junction proteins such as E-Cadherin and ?-Catenin, gatekeepers of EMT, through leukocyte antigen-related tyrosine phosphatase (LAR or PTPRF) protein down-regulation. Furthermore, the induction of EMT in LA7 by TGF-? treatment resulted in miR-199a up-regulation through TWIST1 induction, while the down-regulation of miR-199a abrogated the invasion capacity of the LA7-Elongated fibroblast-like cells in 3D cell culture assays.
Moreover when injected in NOD/SCID mice, LA7 cells in which we induced modulation of miR-199a were unable to form metastasis, even if their tumor seeding ability was not affected.
Taken together our results support that miR-199a is a component of the pathway that commits epithelial cells to the EMT program and an important factor in the metastatic cascade engagement. Research concerning miRs identified using the LA7 model system and their possible use as therapeutic agents is ongoing in our lab and will provide new useful tools for cancer therapy.
The role of exercise in the treatment and management of eating disorders

description: The purpose of this study was to explore health professional’s opinions concerning the role of exercise in the treatment of eating disorders (EDs) and to introduce recommendations for incorporating exercise into ED treatment. Exercise abuse is a behaviour often displayed by those with EDs. Given the low success rates of current treatment methods, exercise has been postulated as a method to help manage exercise abuse and improve overall prognosis, however, little research exists that examines exercise as a supportive treatment for EDs. To explore the role of exercise in ED treatment, semi-structured interviews were conducted with a panel of international health professionals (n=13) with expertise in ED treatment and management. Expertise was determined through educational training specific to the field, published scholarly research on exercise and EDs, and/or by current clinical work and interest in the role of exercise within ED treatment. Verbatim interview transcripts were analysed using thematic analysis and four main themes emerged, including: 1) Understanding the Current State; highlighted the historical negative views and common practise of abstaining from exercise during treatment, yet also indicated that these views and practises are changing, 2) Gaining Perspectives; outlined the gap in ED research and practice which is compounded by a lack of knowledge surrounding exercise and EDs and a fear of incorporating exercise into ED treatment, 3) Barriers and Benefits; presented attitudinal (e.g., negative views of exercise) and practical (e.g., funding) barriers, yet also identified physical (e.g. increased muscular-skeletal), and psycho-social (e.g., greater self-esteem) benefits, and 4) One size Does Not Fit All; suggested that the exercise prescription must be progressive and tailored to individual needs, include a mix of exercise modalities and be undertaken in a supportive environment not focused on body shape or image. These results provide a foundation for understanding the complex issues and challenges surrounding the utilisation of exercise as an ED treatment method and provides recommendations for moving this topic area forward.

OBSERVATIONAL TESTS ON THE DYNAMICS OF GLOBULAR CLUSTERS
Creators: name: ZOCCHI, ALICE
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2014

description: Galactic globular clusters are nearly gas-free, self-gravitating stellar systems characterized by an apparently simple geometry, with finite size probably determined by tidal truncation. These unique properties make them excellent laboratories for studies of stellar dynamics, and ideal targets for N-body simulations. For a long time, they have been treated as spherically symmetric, nonrotating, isotropic systems. The spherical King (1966) models, constructed to match this physical picture, are usually considered as the correct zeroth-order dynamical reference model, and are sometimes successful in representing the observed characteristics of these systems.

In reality, this simple physical picture suffers from a number of limitations, which become more evident now that much improved observations have become available. In particular, deviations from sphericity have been observed and should be explained. Three physical ingredients are expected to affect the observed morphologies of stellar systems: internal rotation, pressure anisotropy, and external tides. A proper identification of the physical ingredients that shape the internal dynamics of globular clusters will lead to draw conclusions on their origin, and on the origin of their host systems.
In particular, a detailed characterization of the role played by internal rotation and pressure anisotropy in present-day globular clusters would be a crucial element to discriminate among different formation scenarios for this class of stellar systems; indeed, the main goal of this Thesis is to clarify the role of these two important dynamical factors.

For the purpose of giving a detailed and more realistic description of globular clusters, dynamical studies are an important counterpart to the stellar populations analyses often carried out for these systems. Dynamical studies are meaningful only when both photometric and kinematic data are taken into account, but unfortunately for globular clusters the application of dynamical models is frequently carried out only in relation to the available photometric profiles. This Thesis addresses this issue, and strongly supports the view that accurate kinematic data are crucial to provide a satisfactory description of these systems.
SYNTHESIS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY EVALUATION OF NATURALANTIFUNGALS AND THEIR ANALOGUES
Creators: name: AIWALE, SACHIN TANAJI
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: Abstract of the work
The need to develop new fungicides remains a major driving force, as fungal plant pathogens continue to develop resistance against existing fungicides at great speed, and also because new disease situations continually arise. The science of natural products has advanced significantly in recent times, and many compounds derived from nature have found a use in crop protection. Natural products, with their tremendous structural diversity, are an important source of new toxophores. If their properties allow and if sufficient quantities can be obtained from natural sources or by synthesis, such compounds may be used directly as agricultural chemicals. Alternatively, they may constitute useful starting points for the synthesis of analogues with improved biological and physical properties. The aim of this PhD work was to synthesize naturally occurring antifungal compounds and to test their biological activity. Three compounds were chosen in the literature: Farinomalein, Epicoccamide and Harzianic acid, as their biological activity and novel chemical structure made them attractive targets for chemical synthesis. Thus, during the PhD work, efforts were made to synthesize the natural compounds and their analogues.
First, a practical and convenient synthesis of the fungicidal natural compound Farinomalein was carried out starting from readily available ethyl 3-methyl-2-oxobutyrate and triethyl phosphonoacetate, employing a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons condensation as the key step. The antifungal activity of a series of analogues of farinomalein was evaluated against Cladosporium cladosporioides. Changing the linear side chain into a branched one seemed not to be crucial for the activity, whereas increasing the number of side chain carbons significantly affected the antifungal activity.
Efforts towards the first total synthesis of Epicoccamide D were also made. Epicoccamide D exhibits antifungal activity; moreover, it shows weak to moderate cytotoxicity towards HeLa a cell lines (CC50 17.0�M) and good antiproliferative effects on mouse fibroblast (L-929) and human leukaemia cell lines (K-562) with inhibition of growth (GI50) of 50.5 and 33.3�M, respectively.
Finally, a synthetic strategy of Harzianic acid was developed. Harzianic acid has significant antifungal and plant growth promotion effect, which makes it a potential lead for the design of new antifungals. The evaluation of the biological activity of this intermediates and completion of total synthesis of harzianic acid is in progress.
During the PhD an expedient synthesis of 3,7-diaryl-1,4-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines was also developed. It was carried out in three steps from 3,5-dibromo-1H-1,2,4-triazole.The reactions were conducted under easy-to-perform, mild conditions with moderate to good yields. The synthesis affords easy entry to previously unreported heterocyclic compounds of potential pharmacological and agrochemical interest.

description: Questo articolo presenta l’edizione critica dell’inedita Commedia di Ippolito e Lionora, tradita dal manoscritto 1612 della Biblioteca di Treviso. Si tratta di un testo teatrale in ottava rima, caratterizzato da un lungo prologo in forma di cantare, ed è un rimaneggiamento in versi della novella quattrocente­sca nota come Istorietta amorosa fra Leonora de’ Bardi e Ippolito Buondelmonti. L’edizione del testo è preceduta da uno studio introduttivo che dimostra l’identificazione di quest’opera con una commedia, ricordata da fonti storiche ma ritenuta perduta, messa in scena nel 1492 alla corte di Ercole I d’Este; essa è particolarmente interessante per la natura privata della rappresentazione: spettatori ed attori, infatti, erano membri della corte stessa.

This article presents the critical edition of the unpublished Comedy of Ippolito and Lionora, contained in manuscript 1612 from Treviso pu­blic library. It is a dramatic text written in ottava rima, prefaced by a long pro­logue having the features of a cantare, and it is a poetry adaptation of the fifte­enth-century novella known as Istorietta amorosa fra Leonora de’ Bardi e Ippolito Buondelmonti. The critical edition is introduced by a study that demonstrates the identification of this work with a play, which is mentioned in historical sources but was considered lost. It was put on stage in 1492 in the court of Ercole I d’Este and is particularly interesting because its performance was pri­vate: spectators and actors, in fact, were members of the court.

description: È noto che la lingua di Apuleio sia ricchissima di effetti anfibologici e paronomastici. Come tradurre? In questo saggio si esaminano due diverse traduzioni, quella emulativa di Alessandro Fo e quella ‘servile’ di Lara Nicolini. In alcuni dei copiosissimi loci bollati come ‘intraducibili’, l’autrice di questo saggio offre proposte e soluzioni che limitino l’ineluttabilità di tale sconfitta, valorizzando in traduzione la dominante ludica dello stile delle Metamorfosi di Apuleio.

Apuleius’ language is well-known for its wealth of amphibological and paronomastic effects. How should it be translated? This essay examines two different solutions: Alessando Fo’s translation, which seeks to produce similar effects, and Lara Nicolini’s one, aimed at formal equivalence. For a few of the many 'untranslatable' text passages, the author of this essay offers possible solution to limit the ineluctability of this defeat and to best render the ludic dominant of Apuleius’s style in the Metamorphoses.

PROFIT FROM JUSTICE: COMPARATIVE LEGAL AND REGULATORY APPROACHES TO THIRD-PARTY LITIGATION FINANCING
Creators: name: DE MORPURGO, MARCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2014

description: Third-party litigation funding (TPLF) consists of the practice where an independent third party offers financial support to a claimant in order to cover his litigation expenses, in return for a share of damages if the claim is successful, or nothing if the case is lost. TPLF is subject to apparently very different legal and regulatory regimes in the common law and civil law world, respectively. While in the common law ancient doctrines may apply and prohibit TPLF, in the civil law this practice is unregulated. However, while TPLF has been rapidly developing in the common law world, in the civil law world its existence is very limited. On both sides of the Ocean, a heated debate is dividing supporters and critics of TPLF, regarding its legality and desirability. This work uses the tools of comparative law in order to address two key questions: (i) should TPLF be permitted?; and, if so, (ii) should it be regulated? First, the dissertation reviews the law of TPLF in both the common law and civil law worlds. In particular, a comparative analysis of the law governing TPLF, carried out through an observation of the interplay of different legal formants, leads to the conclusion that both traditions share common problems and similar operative rules. Second, the comparative analysis also explains the counterintuitive fact that TPLF is more developed in the common law than in the civil law world. In particular, the reasons for this state of facts may be found in the context in which TPLF operates, including both structural features and cultural characteristics (cryptotypes) of the two legal traditions. Thereafter, the work analyzes the political debate that stands behind the evolution of the law of TPLF, identifying the key actors involved and the real driving forces that steer the law in the area. The last chapter lifts the veil on the political debate on TPLF, using economic and sociological analysis in order to test the main policy arguments raised in favor and against this practice, and reveal which are genuine policy arguments and which are false rhetoric narratives. The work comes to the conclusion that TPLF should be permitted, as a further liberalization of TPLF would be socially beneficial, while some form of regulation may be appropriate in order to ensure the proper functioning of the industry. Finally, challenging the common perception that litigation funding stands in a competitive relationship with justice, this work argues that TPLF makes it possible to ?profit from justice.?

STATISTICS ON MULTITYPE GALTON-WATSON TREES

description: In this work is proposed a statistical study of the multitype Galton-Watson trees in order to obtain data on their offspring distribution. The investigation is motivated by some parametric simplified models, based on particular two-type Galton-Watson trees, that we propose for the biological process called angiogenesis, i.e. the growth of new blood vessels. The basic idea of the models is to simplify the structure of a blood vessel as an union of its head and the body of the vessel itself. Moreover, the body of the vessel is conceived as an union of essential units, all with the same size. Then, we apply the structure of certain two-type Galton-Watson trees to the growth of a blood vessel, where the two-type particles are the heads and the essential units of a blood vessel respectively.

description: Transport is one of the most important infrastructural branches of material production, which provides the production and non-production needs of the national economy and the population in all types of transportation. The transport system is one of the basic branches of the economy, the stable functioning of which provides the necessary conditions for defense, national security, state integrity, improving living standards. Today, the transport sector of Ukraine is a significant and important segment for the country's economy, because the efficient and coordinated operation of the entire transport system is a driving force for the overall development of the country. The development of integration processes and the growth of competition in the market of transport services requires new approaches to the development of transport relations, the creation of new technologies and improving the quality of services [1]. Over the last century, there has been a huge leap in the development of transport. Moreover, it is projected that transport industry will undergo dramatic changes in the coming decades. The fact that the level of the development of the transport industry is one of the most important signs of technological progress and civilization does not need to be proved. This fact is confirmed by the report on Global Competitiveness, which was provided by the World Economic Forum (Schwab, 2019). The leading countries in the development of transport infrastructure have already created models of transport for the future. The transport sector of Ukraine, unfortunately, remains in a stagnant state and needs reforms and investment, as well as the revival of innovation and research processes in this area for further development and overcoming the crisis. The improvement of the transport system and its individual components is needed. Thus, current paper is aimed at determining the factors that influence the choice of a particular mode of transport. We have researched the main modes of transport that are in demand in Ukraine by importance and satisfaction criterion, using the results of a survey conducted by us [2]. Various aspects of personnel analysis, including the transport industry, have been considered by the authors in previous research [2-23].

description: Public capital investment (both investment in infrastructure and investment in human capital) is assumed to be one of the most important determinants of economic growth in theoretical literature. While the effects of public investment on GDP growth and other macroeconomic indicators vary across different countries. Thus, from policymaker’s point of view, it is important to estimate the size, transmission mechanism and character of impact of public investment in short and long horizons, in order to be able to design relevant and effective fiscal policy. Thus, this paper analyzes the developments of public investment in Armenia, and implements estimation of the macroeconomic effects of public investment. The estimation has been done using two approaches: first, an empirical analysis has been performed using a simple OLS regression model and a structural VAR model, to show the historical effects between public investment and GDP based on information contained in actual data. Then, using a DSGE model, the effects of public investment and its transmission channels were analyzed based on the structure of Armenian economy. Both empirical analysis and estimation with a structural model showed, that public investment has significant positive impact on RA GDP and other macroeconomic variables. Based on the estimation results, the paper end with recommendations about directions of fiscal policy in Armenia.

description: OBJECTIVES:
The present study wanted to investigate the influence of the biomaterials used in GBR procedures for the treatment of horizontal bone defects in dogs. Different healing times (4 days, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months) were considered to analyze the variations in tissue composition at different time points. A multivariate/multilevel analysis was used to answer the question whether factors other than the treatment group and the healing time can be correlated to the GBR treatment outcomes.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In this in vivo experimental study three horizontal defects were shaped in each lower hemi-mandible of eighteen beagle dogs. After 3 months of healing, the atrophic ridges were laterally augmented through the use of a bone xenogeneic graft (T1), a collagen membrane (T2) or a combination of both biomaterials (T3). After the scheduled healing time points, dissected blocks were processed for qualitative and quantitative analysis.
RESULTS.
All animals experienced uneventful healing during the whole study period.
A statistically significant correlation was found between greater augmented volume and the combined treatment group (T3), whereas T2 presented the higher percentage of mineralized tissue within the augmented area. The percentage of mineralized tissue was also correlated with longer healing time points. In all groups the treatment outcome were statistically influenced by the ridge morphology (horizontal ridge width and defect depth, p<0,01).
CONCLUSIONS
Bone regeneration in non-contained horizontal bone defects may be achieved by means of the three selected treatment strategies, although several factors seems to be involved in the final outcome of the procedure.
Third and fifth harmonics generation by tightly focused femtosecond pulses at 2.2 μm wavelength in air

description: We report experiments on the generation of third and fifth harmonics of millijoule-level, tightly focused, femtosecond laser pulses at 2.2 μm wavelength in air. The measured ratio of yields of the third and fifth harmonics in our setup is about 2 \cdot 10-4. This result contradicts the recent suggestion that the Kerr effect in air saturates and changes sign in ultra-intense optical fields.

Elastic stress modelling and prediction of ground class using a Bayesian Belief Network at the Kemano tunnels
Creators: name: Morgenroth, Josephine S.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The Kemano hydroelectric facility was constructed in the 1950s to supply power to the aluminum smelter in Kitimat, on the west coast of British Columbia. The Kemano project includes a 16 km long water conveyance tunnel that set world record advance rates in the 1950s, and 8 km of a partially completed tunnel. A risk management strategy was developed in the late 1980s in case of collapse of the first water conveyance tunnel, and by 1990 the excavation of a second tunnel parallel to the first had begun. Work halted in 1991 due to environmental litigation and change in political climate. In 2011 the owner of the Kitimat smelter and the Kemano hydroelectric facility announced plans to continue work on the tunnel that was left unfinished. This thesis is a collaboration with Hatch Ltd., a consultant to the owner, to determine the ground conditions and support requirements that should be anticipated in completing the backup tunnel. Three dimensional finite element elastic stress modelling was completed in order to determine the in-situ stress conditions as well as the boundary stresses around the tunnel. The modelling results were used to estimate where stress-induced problem areas should be expected, for example at chainages 10+700 to 12+700 in the backup tunnel. The results of the stress modelling were incorporated into a Bayesian Belief Network that was developed for the Kemano tunnels. It was built using widely accepted empirical relationships in rock mechanics, expert judgement and conditional relationships between inputs. This network predicts the ground class at a user-defined chainage, based on a database that was developed from project literature. The user is also able to input new data as it becomes available, for example during the tunnel advance. The predictions from the network align with what can be seen in the excavated portion of the backup tunnel, for example accurately predicting the need for steel sets at chainage 8+510. The predicted ground class was plotted as a function of chainage, and may be used as a comparison to the support requirements that have been determined thus far.

description: The agile market engineering process model (AMEP) is built on the insight, that market design and development is a wicked problem. Electronic markets are too complex to be completely designed upfront. Instead, AMEP tries to bridge the gap between theoretic market design and practical electronic market platform development using an agile, iterative approach that relies on early customer feedback and continuous improvement.  The AMEP model is complemented by several supporting software artifacts.
