description: A series of new hyaluronan derivatives was synthesized and tested as an antibiotic release system by antibacterial and osseointegration assays. Specifically, partially sulphated hyaluronic acid (sHA) was functionalized with dopamine (DA). The DA moiety guarantees good performance as a binding agent for coating a titanium alloy surface; furthermore, the negatively charged sHA has bone regenerative effects and a high binding affinity for positively charged antibiotics. A sHA scaffold with a defined degree of sulphation (DS =2) was selected as a good compromise between a high negative charge density and poor heparin-like anticoagulant activity, while the degree of DA derivatization (17.1%mol) was chosen based on the absence of cytotoxic activity and the promotion of osteoblast proliferation. The titanium alloy coating was investigated indirectly using a fluorescent probe and directly by environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) analysis. Long-duration antibiotic release was demonstrated in vitro, and antibacterial efficacy against a Staphylococcus aureus culture was shown.

On the characterisation of shock-induced sliding along multi-material interfaces
Creators: name: Collinson, Mark
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Experimental results utilising novel diagnostic techniques focussing on spatial resolution of shock-induced sliding phenomena at multi-material aluminium - stainless steel dry metallic contact interfaces are presented. Relative particle velocities of 50 m s⁻¹ are generated at the sliding interface via an intrinsic impedance mismatch between the material components, driven by gas gun flyer plate impact. Results are first presented for the metallography of recovered target samples from shock-induced sliding contact interfaces where the intrinsic grain structure is utilised as a fiducial marker to provide a measure of the sub-surface deformation experienced. Two distinct mutually exclusive scales of deformation were identified extending over millimetre and micrometre depths with relatively low and high free surface sliding velocities measured for these respectively using optical velocimetry. Further experimental results are presented for spatially resolved velocimetry of shock-induced sliding at planar material interfaces utilising a line-VISAR diagnostic. Experiments are conducted over 3 mm and 15 mm interface length scales with the contact interface orientated at 0.0° and 5.0° relative to the direction of loading. Specific material pairings of aluminium 1050 and aluminium 7068 paired independently with stainless steel 316 were utilised. An initial large scale experiment was found to be suggestive of the role of gaps at the contact interface, estimated to be 35 μm in size via comparison of the velocimetry data with hydrocode models. Further mesoscale experiments are suggestive of the role of re-shock and release waves generated at the contact face co-incident with the breakout of the elastic and plastic shock fronts, defining the velocimetry profile in close vicinity of the contact face over the timescales measured.

description: Analysis of several recent ROSAT HRI observations of the gravitationally lensed system Q0957+561 has led to the detection at the 3sigma level of the cluster lens containing the primary galaxy G1. The total mass was estimated by applying the equation of hydrostatic equilibrium to the detected hot intracluster gas for a range of cluster core radii, cluster sizes and for different values of the Hubble constant. X-ray estimates of the lensing cluster mass provide a means to determine the cluster contribution to the deflection of rays originating from the quasar Q0957+561. The present mass estimates were used to evaluate the convergence parameter kappa, the ratio of the local surface mass density of the cluster to the critical surface mass density for lensing. The convergence parameter, kappa, calculated in the vicinity of the lensed images, was found to range between 0.07 and 0.21, depending on the assumed cluster core radius and cluster extent. This range of uncertainty in kappa does not include possible systematic errors arising from the estimation of the cluster temperature through the use of the cluster luminosity-temperature relation and the assumption of spherical symmetry of the cluster gas. Applying this range of values of kappa to the lensing model of Grogin & Narayan (1996) for Q0957+561 but not accounting for uncertainties in that model yields a range of values for the Hubble constant:67

description: The protective effects of lower body subcutaneous adiposity are linked to the depot functioning as a ”metabolic sink” receiving and sequestering excess lipid. This postulate, however, is based on indirect evidence. Mechanisms that mediate this protection are unknown. Here we directly examined this with progressive subcutaneous adipose tissue removal. Ad libitum chow fed mice underwent sham surgery, unilateral or bilateral removal of inguinal adipose tissue or bilateral removal of both inguinal and dorsal adipose tissue. Subsequently mice were separated into 5 week chow or 5 or 13 week HFD groups (N = 10 per group). Primary outcome measures included adipocyte distribution, muscle and liver triglycerides, glucose tolerance, circulating adipocytokines and muscle insulin sensitivity. Subcutaneous adipose tissue removal caused lipid accumulation in femoral muscle proximal to excision, however, lipid accumulation was not proportionally inverse to adipose tissue quantity excised. Accumulative adipose removal was associated with an incremental reduction in systemic glucose tolerance in 13 week HFD mice. Although insulin-stimulated pAkt/Akt did not progressively decrease among surgery groups following 13 weeks of HFD, there was a suppressed pAkt/Akt response in the non-insulin stimulated (saline-injected) 13 week HFD mice. Hence, increases in lower body subcutaneous adipose removal resulted in incremental decreases in the effectiveness of basal insulin sensitivity of femoral muscle. The current data supports that the subcutaneous depot protects systemic glucose homeostasis while also protecting proximal muscle from metabolic dysregulation and lipid accumulation. Removal of the “metabolic sink” likely leads to glucose intolerance because of decreased storage space for glucose and/or lipids.

On the valuation of barrier and American options in local volatility models with jumps
Creators: name: Eriksson, Bjorn
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: In this thesis two novel approaches to pricing of barrier and American options are developed in the setting of local volatility models with jumps: the moments method and the Markov chain method. The moments method is a valuation approach for barrier options that is based on a characterisation of the exit location measure and the expected occupation measure of the price process of the underlying in terms of the corresponding moments. It is shown how the value of barrier-type derivatives can be expressed using these moments, which are in turn shown to be characterised by an infinite-dimensional linear system. By solving finite-dimensional linear programming problems, which are obtained by restricting to moments of a finite degree, upper and lower-bounds are found for the values of the options in question. The Markov chain method for the valuation of American options is based on an approximation of the underlying price process by a continuous-time Markov chain. The value-function of the American option driven by the approximating chain is identified by solving the associated optimal stopping problem. In particular, a novel explicit characterisation of the optimal exercise boundary is derived in terms of the generator of the Markov chain. Using this characterisation it is shown that the optimal exercise boundary and the corresponding value-function can be evaluated efficiently. For both of the presented methods convergence results are established. The methods are implemented for a range of local volatility models with jumps, and a number of numerical examples are discussed in detail to illustrate the scope of the methods.
Novel imaging targets in inflammation
Creators: name: Cheong, Poh Yue
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Over the last two decades, research into the imaging of inflammation has been thoroughly investigated as it presents a promising therapeutic target for many diseases, including neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. There are only a few radiopharmaceuticals which are currently in general use for imaging inflammation, e.g. 18F-FDG, nuclear labelled autologous white blood cells, 67Ga-citrate etc. However, none is specific for inflammation thus there is a need to investigate novel imaging agents for distinguishing sterile inflammation from infection. Formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) were originally identified as chemoattractant receptors, which have been shown to be implicated with potential therapeutic benefits for inflammatory diseases. Highly specific hexapeptides, cFLFLFK (cinnamoyl-Phe-D-Leu-Phe-D-Leu-Phe-Lys-NH2) and WKYMVm (Trp-Lys-Tyr-Met-Val-D-Met-NH2), which are selective antagonist and agonist for FPR1 and FPR2 respectively, have been modified by conjugating to a cyclen based chelate for metal ions, allowing for specific imaging of inflammation using non-invasive imaging techniques such as MRI, PET and SPECT. This thesis depicts the synthesis of a bifunctional chelate, DOTAGA containing five acetate arms. Ln.DOTAGA-conjugates were prepared by coupling the Ln(III) complexes of DOTAGA onto the desired peptides without a protection step as the four pendant acetate arms were involved in coordination. Their binding affinities and biological functions were assessed by various in vitro assays such as radioligand binding assays, chemotaxis and TNF-α induced cytokine release. In vivo imaging of inflammation using the synthesised compounds and a mu-rine model of inflammation was performed. Further to this, the DOTAGA was further modified to an anhydride analogue, which allows for post radiolabelling after conjugation to the peptides. Subsequent complexation with Cu(II) and Ga(III) ions indicated their potential use in nuclear imaging. Two organic chromophores based on Cy5 bearing two orthogonal functional groups have been synthesised. Successive conjugation with cFLFLFK and confocal microscopy indicated their potential use in optical imaging. Multimodal imaging agents featuring a Cy5 chromophore and a DOTAGA for inflammation have been designed and synthesised. Subsequent complexation with Gd(III) and Tb(III) resulted in MRI/optical and dual luminescent imaging agents, respectively.

description: Two-dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theory is endowed with a non-trivial vacuum structure (k-sectors). The presence of k-sectors modifies the energy spectrum of the theory and its instanton content, the (Euclidean) space-time being compactified on a sphere. For the exact solution, in the limit in which the sphere is decompactified, a k-sector can be mimicked by the presence of k-fundamental charges at infinity, according to a Witten's suggestion. However, this property neither holds before decompactification nor for the genuine perturbative solution which corresponds to the zero-instanton contribution on the sphere.

description: Pancreatic cancer leads as the most lethal malignant neoplasm in the developing world [1]. The two main types are adenocarcinoma and endocrine tumors, accounting for 85% and 5% of pancreatic cancers respectively [1]. Multiple risk factors are associated with pancreatic cancer such as recreational drug use, smoking, alcohol, genetics, diabetes, physical exercise and age. The disease affects men slightly more than women (~5% more) as age increases [1]. Research on the origins of this cancer has been eluded due to the absence of experimental procedures on humans that violate ethical standards in the U.S and Canada. Experiments on mouse models may serve as a guide but are limited. Firstly, cross-cultural correlational data collected on patients are inadequate due to confounding demographic variables that are inconsistent between different groups such as socioeconomic status, social networks, and access to healthcare. Prevention and Future Goals: Due to lack of screening procedures for prevention it may be beneficial in identifying risk factors to help reduce chances of getting pancreatic cancer. Also, community and state-wide fundraising programs can help incapable families obtain access to expensive chemotherapeutic drugs, such as COX-inhibitors that have reported potential activity against pancreatic cancer [1] Facts & Figures [1,2,3] - Pancreatic cancer is the 7th leading cause of death globally and accounting for 4% of all deaths due to cancer. - Occurrence in men: 1 in 74 will develop pancreatic cancer and 1 in 72 will die due pancreatic cancer. - Occurrence in Women: 1 in 72 will develop pancreatic cancer and 1 in 66 will die due to pancreatic cancer. - 5-year survival rate is <5%.

Design and synthesis of novel compounds to inhibit CSF-1R & evaluation of novel substrates and reactivities in NHC catalysis
Creators: name: Davidson, Robert Wen Ming
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Chapter I describes work undertaken on a Medicinal Chemistry project studying the small molecule inhibition of the protein CSF-1R. Initial computational work, using the Cresset software package, involved modeling the key steric and electrostatic properties of compounds known to bind to the active site of the target enzyme, CSF-1R. The subsequent use of a virtual (computational) screen, provided new chemotypic scaffolds, which were used as starting points for structure activity relationship (SAR) exploration. Synthetic chemistry routes were designed and optimised towards analogues of promising compound “hits” focusing on the potential to introduce diversified structural features and the diminution of synthetic steps. This included the construction of an uncommon heterocyclic core motif and efforts to understand and control the regioselectivity of its formation. Chapter II concerns a synthetic methodology project in the area of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis. Work on this project included the development of a novel methodology for the formation of amide bonds using an internal redox approach. This involved the activation of an α-reducible aldehyde with an NHC to form an acyl azolium and subsequent trapping of this intermediate with amine nucleophiles. The hypothesis to be studied was that previous attempts at performing similar transformations with these substrates had been hampered by incompatibility of the aldehyde and amine reagents leading to unwanted condensation side reactivity; thus the main focus of this work was to provide an in situ slow release of the amine nucleophile by masking it as a carbamate that would gradually extrude CO2 under the reaction conditions releasing the amine. The other project discussed in this chapter involves the use of hemiacetals as masked aldehydes, in particular within carbohydrates, due to their natural abundance, making them a cheap source of fixed stereocentres.

description: Axions and axion-like particles are compelling candidates for the missing dark matter of the universe. As they undergo gravitational collapse, they can form compact objects such as axion stars or even black holes. In this paper, we study the formation and distribution of such objects. First, we simulate the formation of compact axion stars using numerical relativity with aspherical initial conditions that could represent the final stages of axion dark matter structure formation. We show that the final states of such collapse closely follow the known relationship of initial mass and axion decay constant $f_a$. Second, we demonstrate with a toy model how this information can be used to scan a model density field to predict the number densities and masses of such compact objects. In addition to being detectable by the LIGO/VIRGO gravitational wave interferometer network for axion mass of $10^{-9} < m_a < 10^{-11}$ eV, we show using peak statistics that for $f_a < 0.2M_{pl}$, there exists a "mass gap" between the masses of axion stars and black holes formed from collapse.

description: In the search for two-dimensional (2D) materials, transition-metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs) have emerged as promising candidates for optoelectronic applications. Here, we show a very long-lasting persistent photoconductivity (PPC) over several hours in thin films of the TMTC zirconium trisulfide (ZrS3) at room temperature when illuminated with a 470 nm LED. ZrS3 crystals were grown using chemical vapor transport. UV-vis spectroscopy showed an indirect band gap of 1.81 eV and an Urbach energy of 83 meV, indicating that the system has a large number of defects. Transistor measurements on thin layers with thicknesses varying between 19 and 50 nm showed ZrS3 to be an n-type semiconductor. The conductivity increases under illumination, and it only reaches the original state several hours after switching off the illumination. This PPC can be described by using a stretched exponential function. On top of that, the sum of three exponential functions with tree different relaxation times fits the observed PPC nearly equally well. This shows that three processes dominate the relaxation. The three observed processes can be differentiated with respect to their origin by their dependence on the thickness of the thin layers.

description: We analytically as well as numerically study the effects of Born-Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics on the properties of $(1+1)$-dimensional s-wave holographic superconductors. We relax the probe limit and further assume the scalar and gauge fields affect on the background spacetime. We thus explore the effects of backreaction on the condensation of the scalar hair. For the analytical method, we employ the Sturm-Liouville eigen value problem and for the numerical method, we employ the shooting method. We show that these methods are powerful enough to analyze the critical temperature and phase transition of the one dimensional holographic superconductor. We find out that increasing the backreaction as well as nonlinearity makes the condensation harder to form. In addition, this one-dimensional holographic superconductor faces with second order phase transition and their critical exponent has the mean field value $β={1}/{2}$.

description: Displacement estimation is very important in ultrasound elastography and failing to estimate displacement correctly results in failure in generating strain images. As conventional ultrasound elastography techniques suffer from decorrelation noise, they are prone to fail in estimating displacement between echo signals obtained during tissue distortions. This study proposes a novel elastography technique which addresses the decorrelation in estimating displacement field. We call our method GLUENet (GLobal Ultrasound Elastography Network) which uses deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to get a coarse time-delay estimation between two ultrasound images. This displacement is later used for formulating a nonlinear cost function which incorporates similarity of RF data intensity and prior information of estimated displacement. By optimizing this cost function, we calculate the finer displacement by exploiting all the information of all the samples of RF data simultaneously. The Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of the strain images from our technique is very much close to that of strain images from GLUE. While most elastography algorithms are sensitive to parameter tuning, our robust algorithm is substantially less sensitive to parameter tuning.

description: A recent study unveiled the potential of acrylamide-based stimulus-responsive hydrogels for volatile organic compound detection in gaseous environments. However, for gas sensing, a large surface area, that is, a highly porous material, offering many adsorption sites is crucial. The large humidity variation in the gaseous environment constitutes a significant challenge for preserving an initially porous structure, as the pores tend to be unstable and irreversibly collapse. Therefore, the present investigation focuses on enhancing the porosity of smart PNiPAAm hydrogels under the conditions of a gaseous environment and the preservation of the structural integrity for long-term use. We have studied the influence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a porogen and the application of different drying methods and posttreatment. The investigations lead to the conclusion that only the combination of PEG addition, freeze-drying, and subsequent conditioning in high relative humidity enables a long-term stable formation of a porous surface and inner structure of the material. The significantly enhanced swelling response in a gaseous environment and in the test gas acetone is confirmed by gravimetric experiments of bulk samples and continuous measurements of thin films on piezoresistive pressure sensor chips. These measurements are furthermore complemented by an in-depth analysis of the morphology and microstructure. While the study was conducted for PNiPAAm, the insights and developed processes are general in nature and can be applied for porosity engineering of other smart hydrogel materials for VOC detection in gaseous environments.

description: ASCA observations of NGC 4636 and a southern region have revealed extended X-ray emission to a radius of about 300 kpc from the galaxy. The symmetric nature of the observed surface brightness around NGC 4636 indicates its association to this galaxy rather than to the Virgo cluster. Model independent estimation of the gravitational mass profile shows a flattening at a radius of $20 \sim 35$ kpc, where the total mass reaches $\sim 6\times 10^{11} M_\odot$ and a mass-to-light ratio of 23. The mass still increases to larger radii, reaching $9\times10^{12} M_\odot$ with a mass-to-light ratio of 300 at $\sim$ 300 kpc from NGC 4636. These features suggest presence of a galaxy group surrounding NGC 4636. If such optically dark groups are common among X-ray bright ellipticals, it would explain the very large scatter in their X-ray luminosities with similar optical luminosities.

A Critical Analysis of the Applications of Anti-Stalking Legislation in Victoria, Australia

description: This research critically analyses the application of Victorian anti-stalking legislation and its efficacy in addressing stalking. A quantitative and qualitative content analysis of stalking cases heard in the County Court of Victoria was employed to identify the nature of behaviours being addressed as stalking crimes. Case analysis highlights a legislative framework that results in a blanket definition of stalking, where its malleable application is responding to both stalking victimisation and is stretched beyond the meaning of stalking. This highlights a highly discretionary and versatile law that is too broad and is applied inconsistently.
Synchrotron maser from weakly magnetised neutron stars as the emission mechanism of fast radio bursts

description: The origin of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) is still mysterious. All FRBs to date show extremely high brightness temperatures, requiring a coherent emission mechanism. Using constraints derived from the physics of one of these mechanisms, the synchrotron maser, as well as observations, we show that accretion induced explosions of neutron stars with surface magnetic fields of $B_*\lesssim10^{11}$ G are favoured as FRB progenitors.

description: We have considered the formation of the luminescent subordinate HeI lines by the absorption of continuum radiation from a source in the lines of the main HeI series in the expanding Universe. It is suggested that at some moment of time, corresponding to the redshift $z_{0}$, a burst of superequilibrium blackbody radiation with a temperature $ T+ΔT $ occurs. This radiation is partially absorbed at different $z
Basis for the role of NF-kB in Inflammation & Cancer

description: The 19th-century pathologist Virchow noted an association between inflammation and cancer. This initial observation has been supported by recent epidemiological data, which has lead to the estimation that 20% of cancers are linked to chronic infections and persistent inflammation. Primary examples are gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), viral hepatitis and colitis- associated cancer. The NF-κB signalling pathway has particular relevance for several liver diseases including hepatitis, liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Constitutive NF-κB activation is a hallmark for many cancers and a major link between inflammation and cancer is provided by NF-κB transcription factor. Inhibition of apoptosis is perhaps the most obvious way through which NF-κB signalling promotes the development of cancer. Numerous NF-κB target genes, such as Gadd45β, prevent apoptosis and have been shown to be required for liver regeneration post-partial hepatectomy. The precise mechanism by which NF-κB regulates the inflammatory mechanisms that drive tumourigenesis, however are poorly understood. In order to elucidate these mechanisms, we propose to examine the role of Gadd45β in the NF-κB mediated link between inflammation and cancer. This study reports that Gadd45β deficient mice are more resistant to diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced hepatocellular carcinogenesis. Gadd45β knockout (KO) mice developed HCC approximately four-fold lower than in control mice. Tumour number and maximum tumour size were also markedly reduced in KO mice. To further investigate in which cell types Gadd45β exerts its tumourigenic action we used bone marrow chimeric mice. Results have demonstrated that Gadd45β exerts its tumourigenic action primarily within the bone marrow derived cells but not in hepatocytes specifically during tumour progression stage than in tumour initiation stage. Furthermore, bone marrow-derived macrophages from KO mice preferentially polarised more towards macrophage M1 like phenotype that promotes anti-tumour immunity and inflammation. Thus, here we report a previously unidentified mechanism by which NF-κB linked inflammation to cancer and identified Gadd45β as a putative mediator of the NF-κB’s tumourigenic activity.

description: Pancreatic cancer leads as the most lethal malignant neoplasm in the developing world [1]. The two main types are adenocarcinoma and endocrine tumors, accounting for 85% and 5% of pancreatic cancers respectively [1]. Multiple risk factors are associated with pancreatic cancer such as recreational drug use, smoking, alcohol, genetics, diabetes, physical exercise and age. The disease affects men slightly more than women (~5% more) as age increases [1]. Research on the origins of this cancer has been eluded due to the absence of experimental procedures on humans that violate ethical standards in the U.S and Canada. Experiments on mouse models may serve as a guide but are limited. Firstly, cross-cultural correlational data collected on patients are inadequate due to confounding demographic variables that are inconsistent between different groups such as socioeconomic status, social networks, and access to healthcare. Prevention and Future Goals: Due to lack of screening procedures for prevention it may be beneficial in identifying risk factors to help reduce chances of getting pancreatic cancer. Also, community and state-wide fundraising programs can help incapable families obtain access to expensive chemotherapeutic drugs, such as COX-inhibitors that have reported potential activity against pancreatic cancer [1] Facts & Figures [1,2,3] - Pancreatic cancer is the 7th leading cause of death globally and accounting for 4% of all deaths due to cancer. - Occurrence in men: 1 in 74 will develop pancreatic cancer and 1 in 72 will die due pancreatic cancer. - Occurrence in Women: 1 in 72 will develop pancreatic cancer and 1 in 66 will die due to pancreatic cancer. - 5-year survival rate is <5%.

description: Considering the current demands for resource conservation and energy efficiency, innovative machining concepts and increased process reliability have a significant role to play. A combination of martensitic hardening of the subsurface and near-net-shape manufacturing represent a great potential to produce components with wear-resistant subsurfaces in an energy- and time-saving way. Within the scope of the present study, the influence of cryogenic machining of metastable austenitic steel on the martensitic transformation and surface quality was investigated. Different cooling strategies were used. A soft sensor based on eddy current in-process measurements was used to determine and subsequently affect the martensitic transformation of the subsurface. The feed rate and component temperature were identified as significant factors influencing the martensitic transformation. However, a high feed rate leads to an increase in surface roughness, and thus to a reduction in component quality. For this reason, a roughing process for achieving maximum martensitic transformation was carried out first in the present study and then a reduction in the surface roughness by maintaining the martensitic subsurface content was aimed for by a subsequent finishing process. With the knowledge generated, a dynamic process control was finally set up for designing the turning process of a required subsurface condition and surface quality.

description: We discuss a class of saddle-point configurations in SU(2) lattice gauge theory in three Euclidean dimensions. These configurations are smooth on the scale of the lattice and have an action density exhibiting localized peaks, as has been seen in cooled and extremized Monte Carlo generated lattices. Large Wilson loops centered on the action peaks show a unit of Z(2) flux. We discuss the generation of these configurations and measurements of the Creutz ratios on them.
