Intrinsic and dopant enhanced solid phase epitaxy in amorphous germanium

description: The kinetics of intrinsic and dopant-enhanced solid phase epitaxy (SPE) is stud- ied in amorphous germanium (a-Ge) layers formed by ion implantation on <100> Ge substrates. The SPE rates were measured with a time-resolved reflectivity (TRR) system between 300 and 540 degC and found to have an activation energy of (2.15 +/- 0.04) eV. To interpret the TRR measurements the refractive indices of the a-Ge layers were measured at the two wavelengths used, 1.152 and 1.532 μm. For the first time, SPE rate measurements on thick a-Ge layers (>3 μm) have also been performed to distinguish between bulk and near-surface SPE growth rate behavior. Possible effects of explosive crystallization on thick a-Ge layers are considered. When H is present in a-Ge it is found to have a considerably greater retarding affect on the SPE rate than for similar concentrations in a-Si layers. Hydrogen is found to reduce the pre-exponential SPE velocity factor but not the activation energy of SPE. However, the extent of H indiffusion into a-Ge surface layers during SPE is about one order of magnitude less that that observed for a-Si layers. This is thought to be due to the lack of a stable surface oxide on a-Ge. Dopant enhanced kinetics were measured in a-Ge layers containing uniform concentration profiles of implanted As or Al spanning the concentration regime 1-10 x1019 /cm-3. Dopant compensation effects are also observed in a-Ge layers containing equal concentrations of As and Al, where the SPE rate is similar to the intrinsic rate. Various SPE models are considered in light of these data.

description: In this article, we explore the interrelationships between the University of British Columbia’s (UBC) cold-beverage contract with the Coca-Cola Bottling Company and the removal or disabling of forty-four percent (44%) of the drinking fountains on campus.  The details of this turn of events provide a distressing glimpse of the impact of corporate sponsorships, and corporate values in general, on educational institutions (Cook, 2004).  At the very least, this case demonstrates the extent to which UBC’s increasing commitment to maximizing revenue distorts the always tenuous ties between higher education and the public interest.

Hygrothermal performance of log walls in a building of 18th century and prediction of climate change impact on biological deterioration

description: Several studies underline the dramatic changes that are expected to take place in nature and environment due to climate change. The latter is also expected to affect the built environment. Particular emphasis is currently given to the impact of climate change on historical structures. Within this context, it is important to use simple methods and novel tools in order to investigate specific case studies. In this study, the climate change impact on the hygrothermal performance of the log walls in a historic timber building is presented. The building under investigation is the Fadum storehouse, also known as ‘the coated house’, located in Tønsberg, Norway. The storehouse dates to the late 18 th century. It has a particular design with the main features of stumps or piles up to which it stands and the ‘coating’ that covers its outer walls. The main damage of the construction is related to the biological degradation of the wood. The hygrothermal performance of the log walls, as well as the exterior and interior climate, have been monitored and the results have been used to validate a Heat, Air and Moisture transport (HAM) model. The validated HAM model is then used to examine the performance of the log walls for both current and potential future climate conditions. The transient hygrothermal boundary conditions serve as the input parameters to a biohygrothermal model that is used to investigate the biological deterioration of the building components. The findings reveal that currently there is no mould risk for the main body of the construction, which is in accordance with the visual inspection. The passive systems of the building are highly conducive to these results, since they protect it from driving rain and other sources of moisture and eliminate the potential impact of future climate change risk scenarios.

description: Il lavoro da me svolto è una ricerca-azione basata su un progetto culinario in classe di Francese lingua straniera affrontato con la mia classe di quarta media durante lo scorso mese di dicembre. Mediante l’ausilio di questionari sociolinguistici cui gli allievi hanno dovuto rispondere e che io ho analizzato in funzione qualitativa, ho cercato di stabilire delle eventuali implicazioni che l’itinerario didattico proposto potesse avere a livello di motivazione dei discenti e del loro sentimento di autoefficacia. Come indicato dai risultati, la modalità esposta risulta efficace sia a livello motivazionale che a livello di autoefficacia. Ciò pare essere dovuto a molteplici fattori, quali l’interesse per le novità tematiche e di attività, i numerosi collegamenti fra il processo di insegnamento/apprendimento e la realtà del progetto (con le reali esigenze comunicative scaturitevi), e l’utilità unita al piacere scaturiti dal lavoro a gruppi di discenti; lo sviluppo positivo di un sentimento di autoefficacia nato dalla consapevolezza dell’essere riusciti a svolgere correttamente tutta una serie di compiti e di attività concorre altresì all’accrescimento della motivazione degli allievi.

description: Seekamp, Professor and University Faculty Scholar in the Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism Management, discussed building adaptive capacity in coastal areas and resource management agencies. Seekamp started the presentation discussing a study she conducted on how tourists will respond to climate change and coastal hazards, and what informs recovery decisions. Seekamp went on to discuss how to help more vulnerable rural communities become more resilient through federal and state responses (subsidized resilience in tourist destinations, buy-outs, relocation) and coastal commons (ecosystem integrity common pool resource). Seekamp also focused on adaptation planning for historic buildings, measurement frameworks for historic buildings, how to maximize conservation under fiscal “constraints”, and transformative continuity.

Non-Uniform Cosmological Birefringence and Active Galactic Nuclei

description: Cosmological birefringence, a rotation by an angle $α$ of the polarization of photons as they propagate over cosmological distances, is constrained by the cosmic microwave background (CMB) to be $|α|\lesssim1^\circ$ ($1σ$) out to redshifts $z\simeq1100$ for a rotation that is uniform across the sky. However, the rotation angle $α(θ,ϕ)$ may vary as a function of position $(θ,ϕ)$ on the sky. Here I discuss how a position-dependent rotation can be sought in current and future AGN data. An upper limit $\VEV{α^2}^{1/2} \lesssim 3.7^\circ$ to the scatter in the position-angle--polarization offsets in a sample of only N=9 AGN already constrains the rotation spherical-harmonic coefficients to $(4π)^{-1/2} α_{lm}\lesssim 3.7^\circ$ and constrains the power spectrum for $α$ in models where it is a stochastic field. Future constraints can be improved with more sources and by analyzing well-mapped sources with a tensor-harmonic decomposition of the polarization analogous to that used in CMB polarization and weak gravitational lensing.

description: Full control over the spatio-temporal structure of quantum states of light is an important goal in quantum optics, to generate for instance single-mode quantum pulses or to encode information on multiple modes, enhancing channel capacities. Quantum light pulses feature an inherent, rich spectral broadband-mode structure. In recent years, exploring the use of integrated optics as well as source-engineering has led to a deep understanding of the pulse-mode structure of guided quantum states of light. In addition, several groups have started to investigate the manipulation of quantum states by means of single-photon frequency conversion. In this paper we explore new routes towards complete control of the inherent pulse-modes of ultrafast pulsed quantum states by employing specifically designed nonlinear waveguides with adapted dispersion properties. Starting from our recently proposed quantum pulse gate (QPG) we further generalize the concept of spatio-spectral engineering for arbitrary $\chitwo$-based quantum processes. We analyse the sum-frequency generation based QPG and introduce the difference-frequency generation based quantum pulse shaper (QPS). Together, these versatile and robust integrated optics devices allow for arbitrary manipulations of the pulse-mode structure of ultrafast pulsed quantum states. The QPG can be utilized to select an arbitrary pulse mode from a multimode input state, whereas the QPS enables the generation of specific pulse modes from an input wavepacket with Gaussian-shaped spectrum.

EXPLOITING AVAILABLE URBAN TRANSPORTATION RESOURCES WITH TAXI SHARING AND RAPID TRANSPORTATION NETWORKS: A CASE STUDY FOR MILAN
Creators: name: GIOVANNINI, ALESSANDRO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2016

description: We assess a bimodal transportation system based on a massive urban on-demand transportation service, named Taxi Sharing, and a rapid Local Public Transportation optimized for users without movement impairments, according to users' traveling and walking time. The aim is to increase, qualitatively and quantitatively, public mobility services by exploiting available urban transportation resources, in order to reduce private motorized mobility and related externalities in urban context. We developed a new technique to optimize a high quality Taxi Sharing service starting from state-of-the-art DARP optimization algorithms. In Taxi Sharing, time windows on pick-up and delivery times are narrow and the service is provided by many small vehicles, taxis. These features allow an enumeration of all possible subsets of incoming users' requests for each vehicle and to compute in real time an optimal set of routes by solving a large set partitioning problem with state-of-the-art integer linear programming solvers. Owing to this fast global optimization capability, the system allows for a high quality service without any need of booking the ride in advance. We present three development scenarios according to demand level, we discuss the performance of the service in terms of number of requests serviced per hour, average travel time and waiting time, number of taxis simultaneously on duty, ride fare and taxi revenue. We explored the possibility of planning, in presence of Taxi Sharing, a rapid LPT optimized for users without movement impairments according to users' traveling and walking time. We based the optimization process on data collected in the field. We evaluated the effects of optimal stops spacing on commercial speed, in relation also to traffic light priority. Obtained results indicate a huge potential increase in efficiency related both to taxi service and to local public transportation.

description: Two different types of shear bands generate in ultrafine-grained (UFG) CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloys deformed at 77 K, i.e. commonly-observed low angle grain boundary (LAGB) type and unusual twin-coupled type. Twin-coupled shear bands exhibit a misorientation of 56–67° with the matrix, in contrast to the LAGB shear band with a misorientation of 6–12°. Both annealing twins and deformation twins can act as precursor for twin-coupled shear bands, where dislocation accumulation along twin boundaries can tune the orientation of twin lamella. These observations suggest that twin-coupled shear bands can act as an important plastic carrier in materials deformed under extreme conditions. Atomic structure of twin-coupled shear band is unveiled in an UFG CoCrFeMnNi HEA deformed at 77 K, which involves in dislocation-twin boundary coupled mechanism, based on delicate structural characterization via high resolution transmission electron microscopy.

description: This thesis disserts the art. 2467 of the Civil Code and analyses its reception into the Italian legal system, with peculiar emphasis on the financing of the shareholders within a company. Its impact and relevance are then compared to analogous rules of other Countries, such as the North American, the German, the Spanish, the Portuguese and the French ones. At the end, an evaluation of the signs of anomaly ex art. 2467 c.c. through solvency tests is proposed. The major achievement of this thesis, to the Author's point of view, is that the italian rule is perfectible and might achieve different connotations and interpretations on the basis of the foreign examined legal systems.

Sviluppo di un plugin Moodle per la creazione di questionari adattivi
Creators: name: Ambrosio, Luca
Publisher: name: Scuola Universitaria della Svizzera Italiana (SUPSI)
Year: 2019

description: Moodle rappresenta la piattaforma più utilizzata nel mondo per la gestione dei corsi universitari. In questo progetto è stato sviluppato un plugin per Moodle grazie al quale è possibile creare dei questionari adattivi. Questo tipo di test permette di selezionare le domande da porre allo studente in base alle sue abilità. Le domande successive che verranno poste al soggetto saranno dunque diverse a seconda delle sue abilità e delle risposte date alle domande precedenti. L'obiettivo è valutare con precisione il livello di preparazione dell'esaminato mantenendo il numero di domande il più piccolo possibile. Per poter realizzare ciò, la conoscenza dell’esaminato può essere modellata attraverso una variabile aleatoria, la cui distribuzione di probabilità identificherà qual è il livello di conoscenza dello studente. Lo scopo del progetto è quello di creare un modello probabilistico che descriva le relazioni tra la preparazione dello studente e le risposte date. Il modello sviluppato si basa su una rete bayesiana. È stato necessario integrare la caratterizzazione delle domande in base alla loro difficoltà. Per lo sviluppo di questo plugin ci si è basato sul progetto realizzato da Adam Franco(professore all’università Middelbury college), il quale aveva già sviluppato una prima versione del plugin, grazie a cui era possibile creare dei questionari adattivi su Moodle. Questa versione è stata modificata introducendo le reti bayesiane per la descrizione della conoscenza dello studente. L’adozione di test adattivi permette la valutazione di uno studente in maniera più accurata rispetto ai test standard. Viene dunque in questo progetto rilasciato un Plugin per la versione attuale di Moodle che implementa questa funzionalità.
Reaping the rewards of democracy : a mixed-methods study of donor reaction to democratization (or lack thereof) in aid recipient countries
Creators: name: Ahmed, Murad
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The study examines how foreign aid donors react to changes in levels of democracy in recipient countries. After observation a variation in behavior among developed countries, the thesis explains such patterns through a twofold theory. We theorize that the major donors such as the UK, US, the Nordic countries, Germany, Japan and France diverge in their reaction to democracy because of two key factors: variations in their respective political economies and degree of foreign aid independence from foreign policy. The political economy analysis shows that aid priorities are part structurally determined: donors with liberal market-economies will not tolerate bad governance in aid recipients and will look for the more efficient recipients to provide aid; however, donors with coordinated market-economies may tolerate governance weakness in recipient countries to help with state-building. Second, a high degree of foreign aid independence from larger foreign policy makes it more likely that foreign aid is disbursed in pursuit of good governance outcomes in recipient countries rather than to fulfill the strategic priorities of donors. Donors with liberal market-economies who have relatively independent foreign aid agencies like the US, UK and the Nordics are more reactive to democratization (or lack thereof) in recipient countries. Countries like France and Japan that are coordinated market-economies and do not have a fully independent aid disbursing agency do not react to democratization. Germany that is a coordinated market-economy but has an independent foreign aid agency reacts moderately to changes in democracy among recipient countries. We theorize that smaller regional donors purse strategic interests and thus provide aid as a “reward” for democracy only when it is convenient. We utilize a Tunisian as a case study to show the differences among donor disbursement before and after its democratization in 2011. We bolster that case study through a regression analysis. The case study and the regression analysis support our theoretical arguments.

description: Sayao, Associate Professor in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Resources, discussed how wetlands and streams respond to climate change and if they can be restored by using structure and function as a way to mitigate climate change. His lab conducts frequent monitoring and uses that information to forecast how these systems will respond in the short term. Sayao talked about his lab's work in Costa Rica investigating how stream water chemistry and food webs are being affected by changes in precipitation. Sayao also discussed the research being done in North Carolina on wetland restoration, and concluded by discussing using regional and global scales to look at ecosystem metabolism across the tropics, and a global scale meta-analysis focused on nutrient enrichment.

How (and why) Digital Diploma Mills (don't) Work:  Academic Freedom, Intellectual Property Rights, Automation and UBC's Master of Educational Technology Program
Creators: name: Petrina, Stephen

description: In the early 21st century, an expansion of educational markets implies automation, social polarization or stratification, and corporatization. These processes, among others, govern initiatives to exploit the economics of the corporate university. Within are three compelling issues facing higher education: academic freedom, intellectual property rights (IPRs), and revenues. In Digital Diploma Mills, David Noble describes two practices underwriting these issues. The first is commercialization via corporate exploitation of research, licensing and the reassignment of IPRs (i.e., copyrights, patents and trade secrets). The second is commodification via the automation of curriculum and instruction (C&I) and the unbundling of IPRs (i.e., copyrights). This article provides detailed insights into the machinations of a digital diploma mill and, like Noble, explains its operation through the political economy of automation. What is an automated course author? How do digital diploma mills work?

Nonlinear time series anaysis of the light curves from the black hole system GRS1915+105

description: GRS 1915+105 is a prominent black hole system exhibiting variability over a wide range of time scales and its observed light curves have been classified into 12 temporal states. Here we undertake a complete analysis of these light curves from all the states using various quantifiers from nonlinear time series analysis, such as, the correlation dimension (D_2), the correlation entropy (K_2), singular value decomposition (SVD) and the multifractal spectrum ($f(α)$ spectrum). An important aspect of our analysis is that, for estimating these quantifiers, we use algorithmic schemes which we have proposed recently and tested successfully on synthetic as well as practical time series from various fields. Though the schemes are based on the conventional delay embedding technique, they are automated so that the above quantitative measures can be computed using conditions prescribed by the algorithm and without any intermediate subjective analysis. We show that nearly half of the 12 temporal states exhibit deviation from randomness and their complex temporal behavior could be approximated by a few (3 or 4) coupled ordinary nonlinear differential equations. These results could be important for a better understanding of the processes that generate the light curves and hence for modelling the temporal behavior of such complex systems. To our knowledge, this is the first complete analysis of an astrophysical object (let alone a black hole system) using various techniques from nonlinear dynamics.

ISOGEOMETRIC OVERLAPPING ADDITIVE SCHWARZ PRECONDITIONERS IN COMPUTATIONAL ELECTROCARDIOLOGY
Creators: name: CHARAWI, LARA  ANTONELLA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2014

description: In this thesis we present and study overlapping additive Schwarz preconditioner for the isogeometric discretization of reaction-diffusion systems modeling the heart bioelectrical activity, known as the Bidomain and Monodomain models. The cardiac Bidomain model consists of a degenerate system of parabolic and elliptic PDE, whereas the simplified Monodomain model consists of a single parabolic equation. These models include intramural fiber rotation, anisotropic conductivity coefficients and are coupled through the reaction term with a system of ODEs, which models the ionic currents of the cellular membrane. The overlapping Schwarz preconditioner is applied with a PCG accelerator to solve the linear system arising at each time step from the isogeometric discretization in space and a semi-implicit adaptive method in time. A theoretical convergence rate analysis shows that the resulting solver is scalable, optimal in the ratio of subdomain/element size and the convergence rate improves with increasing overlap size. Numerical tests in three-dimensional ellipsoidal domains confirm the theoretical estimates and additionally show the robustness with respect to jump discontinuities of the orthotropic conductivity coefficients.
Predicted and Verified Deviations from Zipf's law in Ecology of Competing Products

description: Zipf's power-law distribution is a generic empirical statistical regularity found in many complex systems. However, rather than universality with a single power-law exponent (equal to 1 for Zipf's law), there are many reported deviations that remain unexplained. A recently developed theory finds that the interplay between (i) one of the most universal ingredients, namely stochastic proportional growth, and (ii) birth and death processes, leads to a generic power-law distribution with an exponent that depends on the characteristics of each ingredient. Here, we report the first complete empirical test of the theory and its application, based on the empirical analysis of the dynamics of market shares in the product market. We estimate directly the average growth rate of market shares and its standard deviation, the birth rates and the "death" (hazard) rate of products. We find that temporal variations and product differences of the observed power-law exponents can be fully captured by the theory with no adjustable parameters. Our results can be generalized to many systems for which the statistical properties revealed by power law exponents are directly linked to the underlying generating mechanism.
ERHARD WEIGEL AND HIS INFLUENCE ON LEIBNIZ'S PHILOSOPHY OF MATHEMATICS
Creators: name: BRANCATO, MATTIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2016

description: In this thesis I argue that Erhard Weigel, professor of mathematics at the University of Jena in the 17th century, had a significant impact on the development of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz's philosophy of mathematics. Unlike the generally accepted idea that Weigel's influence lasted only until Leibniz's Parisian stay, it can be proved that they exchanged ideas throughout their lives. In the early years, Weigel influenced Leibniz with his syncretistic interpretation of Hobbes' philosophy and in the revaluation of Euclid's Elements and Aristotle's logic. The analysis of the dissertations written in Jena under Weigel's tutoring show that Leibniz wrote the Hypothesis Physica Nova in the same fashion, following a precise style and focusing on the same topics. This influence led to the revaluation of some universal principles, such as the principle of contradiction and the principle by which the whole is greater than its part, that constitute at a later time Leibniz?s foundation of mathematics. Leibniz?s focus on the concept of homogeneity reveal Weigel?s importance in the following years, especially on the topic of analysis situs and the definition of number. Even more, I argue that Leibniz?s binary arithmetics was developed in the light of Weigel?s mathematical idea of changing the number base, supported by the metaphysical distinction between unity and nothingness. The final outcome of this research is that Leibniz?s philosophy of mathematics could be seen as the rational realization of Weigel?s intuitions, deprived of their dangerous theological consequences.

From the 2D graphene honeycomb lattice to 1D nanoribbons: dimensional crossover signals in the structural thermal fluctuations

description: We study the dimensional crossover from 2D to 1D type behavior, which takes place in the thermal excited rippling of a graphene honeycomb lattice, when one of the dimensions of the layer is reduced. Through a joint study, by Monte Carlo (MC) atomistic simulations using a quasi-harmonic potential and analytical calculations, we find that the normal-normal correlation function does not change its power law behavior in the long wavelength limit. However the system size dependency of the square of out of plane displacement $ $ changes its scaling behavior when going from a layer to a nanoribbon. We show that a new scaling law appears which corresponds to a truly 1D behavior and we estimate the ratio of the sample dimensions where the crossover takes place as $R_{2D \leftrightarrow 1D}\approx 1.609$. Having explored a wide number of realistic systems sizes, we conclude that narrow ribbons present stronger corrugations than the square graphene sheets and we discuss the implications for the electronic properties of freestanding graphene systems.
