Evaluating Determinants of Participation in Voluntary Riparian Buffer Programs: A Case Study of Maryland's Buffer Incentive Program
Creators: name: Hagan, Patrick Thomas
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 1996

description: Forest or grass buffers planted along streams or other waterbodies are receiving considerable attention by policy makers as a way of providing a range of environmental benefits for society, especially prevention of non-point source water pollution from agricultural land. The current emphasis of riparian buffer discussions focuses on voluntary rather than regulatory initiatives, both nationally and in the Chesapeake Bay region. This is not a project about the behavior of buffers; rather, it is about the behavior of people. Why would a landowner plant a riparian buffer on his land if he bears many of the costs, while the benefits might occur largely downstream? This project compares the decision-making process of a sample of landowners who are participating in Maryland's voluntary Buffer Incentive Program and a sample of farmers who are not in the program. More than 600 telephone interviews were conducted to gather original data about the landowners' demographic characteristics, their awareness of the riparian buffer concept, and the weight they gave to various economic and attitudinal factors during their riparian buffer adoption decision-making process. Water quality or other environmental benefits to the community, creation of fish and wildlife habitat, control of erosion, and the grant from the Buffer Incentive Program were the most important factors in the adoption decision for Buffer Incentive Program participants interviewed. Non-participating farmers cited most often erosion control, water quality or other environmental benefit to the community, compliance with current or future land use regulations, and the grant payment from the Buffer Incentive Program.

description: Production by foreign-owned automotive firms in the United States provides an opportunity to investigate the co-location of technological advance and manufacturing. While some scholars report that certain foreign firms are transplanting both of these activities to the United States, others are more circumspect. We first identify automotive patents across American metropolitan areas to develop a new taxonomy of automotive invention. Patent ownership is then traced, showing a clear gap between foreign-owned firms’ production in the United States and formation of invention capital. The findings support a hypothesis that globalization of manufacturing noticeably outpaces the spread of invention assets.

description: Diagnostic and prognostic models are increasingly important in medicine and inform many clinical decisions. Recently, machine learning approaches have shown improvement over conventional modeling techniques by better capturing complex interactions between patient covariates in a data-driven manner. However, the use of machine learning introduces a number of technical and practical challenges that have thus far restricted widespread adoption of such techniques in clinical settings. To address these challenges and empower healthcare professionals, we present a machine learning framework, AutoPrognosis 2.0, to develop diagnostic and prognostic models. AutoPrognosis leverages state-of-the-art advances in automated machine learning to develop optimized machine learning pipelines, incorporates model explainability tools, and enables deployment of clinical demonstrators, without requiring significant technical expertise. Our framework eliminates the major technical obstacles to predictive modeling with machine learning that currently impede clinical adoption. To demonstrate AutoPrognosis 2.0, we provide an illustrative application where we construct a prognostic risk score for diabetes using the UK Biobank, a prospective study of 502,467 individuals. The models produced by our automated framework achieve greater discrimination for diabetes than expert clinical risk scores. Our risk score has been implemented as a web-based decision support tool and can be publicly accessed by patients and clinicians worldwide. In addition, AutoPrognosis 2.0 is provided as an open-source python package. By open-sourcing our framework as a tool for the community, clinicians and other medical practitioners will be able to readily develop new risk scores, personalized diagnostics, and prognostics using modern machine learning techniques.

description: Quantum geometry, which encompasses both Berry curvature and the quantum metric, plays a key role in multi-band interacting electron systems. We study the entanglement entropy of a region of linear size $\ell$ in fermion systems with nontrivial quantum geometry, i.e. whose Bloch states have nontrivial $k$ dependence. We show that the entanglement entropy scales as $S = α\ell^{d-1} \ln\ell + β\ell^{d-1} + \cdots$ where the first term is the well-known area-law violating term for fermions and $β$ contains the leading contribution from quantum geometry. We compute this for the case of uniform quantum geometry and cubic domains and provide numerical results for the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model, 2D massive Dirac cone, and 2D Chern bands. An experimental probe of the quantum geometric entanglement entropy is proposed using particle number fluctuations. We offer an intuitive account of the area-law entanglement related to the spread of maximally localized Wannier functions.

description: This paper examines whether computer-assisted instruction has a positive impact on the literacy and numeracy skills of early grade students. An educational intervention implemented in Zambia integrated technology into classroom activity in order to mitigate weaknesses in teaching skills and address specific unmet student needs. Using a difference-in-difference combined with inverse propensity weights, results show that students’ numeracy and literacy skills are not significantly different from untreated community or government school students. At a third of the cost, the programme is the most cost-effective means of educating children in this poor region of Zambia.
A MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND MATERIALS DESIGN ADVISOR
Creators: name: Kunchithapatham, Arun
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 1996

description: A computer assisted tool, called the DESIGN ADVISOR, has been developed to help obtain a compatible set of candidate materials and manufacturing processes in a fast and straightforward manner. Information for seventeen manufacturing processes includes animations, written descriptions, still pictures and geometric design rules; information for forty-two materials includes written information and data. The DESIGN ADVISOR determines candidate manufacturing processes based on user-specified levels of one or more of seven manufacturing attributes; namely, surface condition, dimensional accuracy, complexity of shape, size, production run or production rate, and cost. The determination of candidate materials is based on the user-specified levels of one or more of eleven material attributes; namely, yield strength/density, fracture toughness/density, elastic modulus/density, high temperature strength/density, density, magnetic properties, electrical resistivity, thermal distortion, thermal insulation, solvent resistance, and cost. It also determines the suitability of candidate manufacturing processes with the candidate materials, and ranks the suitability of each candidate material within each candidate manufacturing process.

description: Complex engineering models are typically computationally demanding and defined by a high-dimensional parameter space challenging the comprehensive exploration of parameter effects and design optimization. To overcome this curse of dimensionality and to minimize computational resource requirements, this research demonstrates a user-friendly approach to formulating a reduced-dimension surrogate model that represents a high-dimensional, high-fidelity source model. This approach was developed specifically for a non-expert using commercially available tools. In this approach, the complex physical behavior of the high-fidelity source model is separated into individual, interacting physical behaviors. A separate reduced-dimension surrogate model is created for each behavior and then all are summed to formulate the reduced-dimension surrogate model representing the source model. In addition to a substantial reduction in computational resources and comparable accuracy, this method also provides a characterization of each individual behavior providing additional insight into the source model behavior. The approach encompasses experimental testing, finite element analysis, surrogate modeling, and sensitivity analysis and is demonstrated by formulating a reduced-dimension surrogate model for the damage tolerance of an aluminum plate reinforced with a co-cured bonded E-glass/epoxy composite laminate under four-point bending.

Studies on the Physiology of Hemolymph Coagulation in Perioplaneta Americana (L.)
Creators: name: Wheeler, Ronald Earl
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 1964

description: In the cockroach, Periplaneta americana (L.), hemolymph coagulation (a) is inhibited for as long as 30 minut es at 0° to 4°c, (b) is initiated at 5°c, (c) is permanently inhibited at 60°c, and (d) takes place in 6 distinct stages. Hemocyte agglutination and transformation is inhibited at 0° to 4°C, is permanently prevented at 55°c, and is independent of plasmal factors. Live plasmatocytes, granular hemocytes, and cystocytes are structurally identical, but differ functionally in their capacity to phagocytize and in their fragility. The cystocyte's primary function is the initiation of coagulation and/or precipitation of the plasma by ejecting cytoplasmic material, including mitochondria, into the surrounding plasma. Hemocyte-free plasma will not spontaneously precipitate, but requires either ionic calcium released from transforming hemocytes, and/or material from exploded cystocyte mitochondria . Substances inside mitochondria may well be t he source of a coagulation-inducing substance that initiates plasma precipitation and veil formation. Substances involved in P. americana coagulation are present in the plasma of 9 other species of cockroach which react to P. americana cystocytes. Substances in the plasma of Tenebrio molitor, Galleria mellonella, or Rhodnius prolixus do not precipitate in the presence of P. americana cystocytes. The amount and/or effectiveness of a coagulation-inducing substance released from cystocytes presumably determines the degree of plasma precipitation. Physiologically active substances contained in and/or released from the corpora allata and c. cardiaca, but lacking in the brain, may regulate the percentage of circulating cystocytes, thereby influencing the coagulability of the hemolymph.

description: In this paper, we study an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted communication system with single-antenna transmitter and receiver, under imperfect channel state information (CSI). More specifically, we deal with the robust selection of binary (on/off) states of the IRS elements in order to maximize the worst-case energy efficiency (EE), given a bounded CSI uncertainty, while satisfying a minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The IRS phase shifts are adjusted so as to maximize the ideal SNR (i.e., without CSI error), based only on the estimated channels. First, we derive a closed-form expression of the worst-case SNR, and then formulate the robust (discrete) optimization problem. Moreover, we design and analyze a dynamic programming (DP) algorithm that is theoretically guaranteed to achieve the global maximum with polynomial complexity $O(L \log L)$, where $L$ is the number of IRS elements. Finally, numerical simulations confirm the theoretical results. In particular, the proposed algorithm shows identical performance with the exhaustive search, and significantly outperforms a baseline scheme, namely, the activation of all IRS elements.

description: From the aerial parts of Salvia barrelieri Etl. (Lamiaceae), 12 compounds including a new triterpene, 3β-acetoxy-olean-18-ene-2α-ol, were isolated. Their structures were established by the combination analyses of spectroscopy including 1D-, 2D-NMR and HRESIMS and in comparison with the reported data in the literature. The antibacterial activity of these compounds was evaluated by bioautography on Staphylococcus aureus followed by the determination of MIC values by serial dilution technique against five bacteria. Three compounds were active against Enterococcus faecalis, S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC 15.1 to 125 μg/mL). Two compounds showed moderate DPPH radical scavenging activity (IC50 79.1 and 21.2 μg/mL). These compounds did not show significant tyrosinase inhibitory activities (IC50> 1.5 mg/mL). Their cytotoxic activity was evaluated against promyelocytic leukaemia (HL60), human erythromyeloblastoid leukaemia (K562) and fibrosarcoma (HT1080) cell lines and four compounds exhibited a moderate cytotoxic activity (IC50 28.75 to 85.0 μM).

description: The practically unlimited high-dimensional composition space of high-entropy materials (HEMs) has emerged as an exciting platform for functional materials design and discovery. However, the identification of stable and synthesizable HEMs and robust design rules remains a daunting challenge due to the difficulty in determining composition/structure-specific enthalpy and entropy contributions to the stability and formation of HEMs. In this work, using first-principles calculations, we find that (i) the stability and miscibility of HEMs strongly depend on the formation enthalpy of the HEM relative to the most stable completing phase rather than on the conventionally-viewed enthalpies of mixing over all possible competing phases, and (ii) the entropy forming ability of a HEM can be measured from the defect formation energy spectrum of tens of substitutional defects in ordered binary compounds, involving no sampling over numerous alloy configurations. Based on these findings, we propose a highly predictive Mixed Enthalpy-Entropy Descriptor (MEED), which enables the rational high-throughput first-principles design and screening of new HEMs over large chemical spaces. Applying the MEED to two structurally distinct material systems (i.e., 3D rocksalt carbides and 2D layered sulfides), not only all experimentally reported HEMs within each system are successfully identified, but a universal cutoff criterion for assessing their relative synthesizability also revealed. In addition, tens of new high entropy carbides and 2D high-entropy sulfides are also predicted. They have the potential for a wide variety of applications such as coating in aerospace devices, energy conversion and storage, and flexible electronics.

description: We study anisotropic solutions for the pure $R^2$ gravity model with a scalar field in the Bianchi I metric. The evolution equations have a singularity at zero value of the Ricci scalar $R$ for anisotropic solutions, whereas these equations are smooth for isotropic solutions. So, there is no anisotropic solution with the Ricci scalar smoothly changing its sign during evolution. We have found anisotropic solutions using the conformal transformation of the metric and the Einstein frame. The general solution in the Einstein frame has been found explicitly. The corresponding solution in the Jordan frame has been constructed in quadratures.

description: A phase proper orthogonal decomposition (Phase POD) method is demonstrated, utilizing phase averaging for the decomposition of spatio-temporal behaviour of statistically non-stationary turbulent flows in an optimized manner. The proposed Phase POD method is herein applied to a periodically forced statistically non-stationary lid-driven cavity flow, implemented using the snapshot proper orthogonal decomposition algorithm. Space-phase modes are extracted to describe the dynamics of the chaotic flow, in which four central flow patterns are identified for describing the evolution of the energetic structures as a function of phase. The modal building blocks of the energy transport equation are demonstrated as a function of the phase. The triadic interaction term can here be interpreted as the convective transport of bi-modal interactions. Non-local energy transfer is observed as a result of the non-stationarity of the dynamical processes inducing triadic interactions spanning across a wide range of mode numbers.

description: Background: Environmental and genetic factors possibly trigger thyroid autoimmunity. Studies on perinatal risk factors for childhood thyroid autoimmunity are sparse. Objectives: The aim was to investigate if perinatal factors, family history of autoimmune diseases, and HLA-DQ genotypes contribute to thyroid autoimmunity in the Diabetes Prediction in Skåne (DiPiS) study. Methods: Samples from 1,874 ten-year-old children were analyzed for autoantibodies to thyroid peroxidase (TPOAb), thyroglobulin (TGAb), and HLA-DQ genotypes. Information on perinatal events and family history of autoimmunity was gathered prospectively in questionnaires. Results: Thyroid autoimmunity was found in 6.9% of the children (TPOAb 4.4%, TGAb 5.8%, both autoantibodies 3.3%) and was overrepresented in girls. Prematurity was positively related to TGAb (OR: 2.4, p = 0.003, pc = 0.021). Autoimmune diseases in the family increased the risk of thyroid autoimmunity: TPOAb (OR: 2.2, p = 0.012), any autoantibody (OR: 1.7, p = 0.04), and both autoantibodies (OR: 2.2, p = 0.024). A first-degree relative (FDR) with thyroid disease increased the risk for TPOAb (OR: 2.4, p = 0.03) and both autoantibodies (OR: 2.6, p = 0.03), a FDR or sibling with celiac disease increased the risk for both autoantibodies (OR: 3.7, p = 0.03, and OR: 4.8, p = 0.003), a FDR or sibling with diabetes increased the risk for thyroid autoantibody (OR: 3.0, p = 0.01, and OR: 5.4, p = 0.032), and a father with rheumatic disease increased the risk for TPOAb (OR: 15.2, p = 0.017), TGAb (OR: 11.3, p = 0.029), any autoantibody (OR: 9.6, p = 0.038), and both autoantibodies (OR: 20, p = 0.01). Conclusions: Thyroid autoimmunity was found in 6.9% of the 10-year-old children who were being followed for their risk of type 1 diabetes. No relation to perinatal factors was found, with the exception of a possible association between prematurity and TGAb. Family history of autoimmune diseases increased the risk of thyroid autoimmunity.
On Richard III's Y-DNA and the Need for Time-Asymmetric Mutation Rates

Subjects: subject: Genetics
subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: A skeleton excavated in 2012 is almost certainly that of the English king, Richard III (1452 -1485), and mtDNA (which is passed from mother to child) extracted from the skeleton matches mtDNA taken from descendants of Richard's sister Anne of York. However Y-DNA (which is passed from father to son) extracted from the skeleton apparently doesn't match Y-DNA taken from descendants of Henry Somerset the 5th Duke of Beaufort, who according to history descended from Richard's 2nd great grand father Edward III (1312 - 1377). The implication according to geneticists, and the media, is that there is a "false paternity event" somewhere between Edward and the Somersets. In this note, a formula for calculating the time of the most recent common ancestor is introduced, and some of its consequences outlined. This formula is attached to a mathematical framework within which it is possible that the traditional genealogy is correct. If this framework is the right framework for understanding of genetic inheritance, then it has been wrongly assumed that Y-DNA mutation rates are line-like, constant and smooth - in reality they are wave-like and decrease erratically in the direction of the future, and the contrary impression is is an illusion created by an over-focus on the relatively constant and smooth nature of genetic change in the present and the near-present.

description: We examine the equilibrium configurations of a nematic liquid crystal with an immersed body in two-dimensions. A complex variables formulation provides a means for finding analytical solutions in the case of strong anchoring. Local tractions, forces, and torques on the body are discussed in a general setting. For weak (finite) anchoring strengths, an effective boundary technique is proposed which is used to determine asymptotic solutions. The energy-minimizing locations of topological defects on the body surface are also discussed. A number of examples are provided, including circular and triangular bodies, and a Janus particle with hybrid anchoring conditions. Analogues to classical results in fluid dynamics are identified, including d'Alembert's paradox, Stokes' paradox, and the Kutta condition for circulation selection.

description: New lactic acid derivatives have been prepared and studied and found that they form cholesteric phase with the helix pitch length in interval 120–200 nm within a broad temperature range. Due to the positive dielectric anisotropy and the short pitch, the applied electric field causes reversible optical changes in planar cell, in which the applied electric field reorients the long molecular axis. Presence of short pitch and possibility to effectively affect electro-optical properties are promising from the point of view of specific applications.

description: Light-field microscopy (LFM) is a 3D microscopy technique whereby volumetric information of a sample is gained by simultaneously capturing both the position and momentum (angular) information of light illuminating a scene. Conventional LFM designs generally require a trade-off between position and momentum resolution, requiring one to sacrifice resolving power for increased depth of field (DOF) or vice versa. In this work, we demonstrate a LFM design that does not require this trade-off by utilizing the inherent correlations between spatial-temporal entangled photon pairs. Here, one photon from the pair is used to illuminate a sample from which the position information of the photon is captured directly by a camera. By virtue of the strong momentum anti-correlation between the two photons, the momentum information of the illumination photon can then be inferred by measuring the angle of its entangled partner on a different camera. By using a combination of ray-tracing and a Gerchberg-Saxton type algorithm for the light field reconstruction, we demonstrate that a resolving power of 5 $μ$m can be maintained with a DOF of $\sim500$ $μ$m, approximately 3 times of the latest LFM designs or $>100$ time that of a conventional microscope. In the extreme, at a resolving power of 100 $μ$m, it is possible to achieve near infinite DOF.

description: Uvaria narum has been used for gastrointestinal problems, jaundice, fever and skin diseases in traditional and ethnomedical practices. Our preliminary antifungal screening of various leaf extracts of U. narum revealed very good antifungal activity for its acetone extract. Active principle of U. narum leaf acetone extract was isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation and characterised as a new molecule, 2-E-(2″-oxo-5″-acetoxy cyclopent-3″-en-1″-ylidene) ethyl benzoate, by NMR, IR and mass spectroscopic analyses. This active isolate showed very good activity against the fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides.

Formation of dark excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides by a vortex beam: optical selection rules

description: Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides host tightly-bound excitons, which dominate their optoelectronic response even at room temperatures. Light beams are often used to study these materials with the polarization - often termed as the spin angular momentum of the light - providing the mechanism for exciting excitonic states. Light beams, however, can also carry an orbital angular momentum by creating helical structures of their phase front. In this work, we consider a Laguerre-Gaussian beam possessing an orbital angular momentum in addition to the spin angular momentum to create excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides. We derive optical selection rules that govern the allowed transitions to various exciton series using symmetry arguments. Our symmetry considerations show that we can create dark excitons using these high-order optical beams opening up new avenues for creating long-lived dark excitons with the potential of exploiting them in quantum information processing and storage.

Anomalous spin Josephson effect in spin superconductors

description: The spin superconductor state is the spin-polarized triplet exciton condensate, which can be viewed as a counterpart of the charge superconductor state. As an analogy of the charge Josephson effect, the spin Josephson effect can be generated in the spin superconductor/normal metal/spin superconductor junctions. Here we study the spin supercurrent in the Josephson junctions consisting of two spin superconductors with noncollinear spin polarizations. For the Josephson junctions with out-of-plane spin polarizations, the possible $π$-state spin supercurrent appears due to the Fermi momentum-splitting Andreev-like reflections at the normal metal/spin superconductor interfaces. For the Josephson junctions with in-plane spin polarizations, the anomalous spin supercurrent appears and is driven by the misorientation angle of the in-plane polarizations. The symmetry analysis shows that the appearance of the anomalous spin Josephson current is possible when the combined symmetry of the spin rotation and the time reversal is broken.

description: Risk factors portending poor outcome following elective spine deformity fusion remain in need of characterization and stratification in the elderly population. Cases aged ≥60 years who underwent elective posterior or anterior-posterior (‘combined’) fusion were extracted from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program years 2007–2013 and analyzed by surgical cohort (posterior vs. combined). The 30-day outcomes included operation time, hospital length of stay (HLOS), perioperative complications, and discharge destination. Multivariable regressions controlling for demographic/clinical variables were performed. Odds ratios (OR) and mean differences (B) were reported with 95% confidence intervals (CI). A total of 881 cases (18.2% combined; 81.8% posterior) aged 70 ± 6.2 years, 32.8% male, and 87.2% Caucasian were included. Posterior fusions associated with extreme body habitus (obese class II/III and underweight; P = 0.027), functional independence (97.5% vs. 91.8%; P = 0.010), and multi-level fusions (7–12 levels: 24.8% vs. 18.1%; ≥13 levels: 8.9% vs. 3.1%; P = 0.004). Overall operation time was 338.0 ± 150.2-min and HLOS 7.4 ± 6.6-days; 17.1% suffered early complications and 54.5% were discharged home. On multivariable analysis, combined (B = 63.8-min; P P p P = 0.012; ≥13 levels: 2.2-days; P = 0.008). Overall complications did not differ by cohort or levels; on post hoc analysis combined fusions associated with pneumonia (OR = 3.05; P = 0.008). Multi-level fusions showed decreased odds of discharge home (7–12 levels: OR = 0.57; P = 0.003; ≥13-levels: OR = 0.41; P = 0.003). The 30-day outcomes and early perioperative complications are comparable for posterior vs. combined approaches to correct deformity in the elderly. Multi-level fusions are associated with increased operation time, HLOS, and discharge to higher level of care.

description: A sequence $a=(a_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ of non-negative integers is called realizable if there is a self-map $T:X\to X$ on a set $X$ such that $a_n$ is equal to the number of periodic points of $T$ in $X$ of (not necessarily exact) period $n$, for all $n\geq1$. The sequence $a$ is called almost realizable if there exists a positive integer $m$ such that $(ma_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is realizable. In this article, we show that certain wide classes of integer sequences are realizable, which contain many famous combinatorial sequences, such as the sequences of Apéry numbers of both kinds, central Delannoy numbers, Franel numbers, Domb numbers, Zagier numbers, and central trinomial coefficients. We also show that the sequences of Catalan numbers, Motzkin numbers, and large and small Schröder numbers are not almost realizable.

description: In this paper we present the theorem on Lie integrability by quadratures for time-independent Hamiltonian systems on symplectic and contact manifolds, and for time-dependent Hamiltonian systems on cosymplectic and cocontact manifolds. We show that having a solvable Lie algebra of constants of motion for a Hamiltonian system is equivalent to having a solvable Lie algebra of symmetries of the vector field defining the dynamics of the system, which allows us to find the solutions of the equations of motion by quadratures.
