description: Herein we present a study on polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide (SiOC)/graphite composites for a potential application as an electrode in high power energy storage devices, such as Lithium-Ion Capacitor (LIC). The composites were processed using high power ultrasound-assisted sol-gel synthesis followed by pyrolysis. The intensive sonication enhances gelation and drying process, improving the homogenous distribution of the graphitic flakes in the preceramic blends. The physicochemical investigation of SiOC/graphite composites using X-ray diffraction, ²⁹Si solid state NMR and Raman spectroscopy indicated no reaction occurring between the components. The electrochemical measurements revealed enhanced capacity (by up to 63%) at high current rates (1.86 A g⁻¹) recorded for SiOC/graphite composite compared to the pure components. Moreover, the addition of graphite to the SiOC matrix decreased the value of delithiation potential, which is a desirable feature for anodes in LIC.

description: Let $N > 1$ be a fixed integer and $(C_1,..., C_N,Q)$ a random element of $GL(d, \R)^N x \R^d$. We consider solutions of multivariate smoothing transforms, i.e. random variables $R$ satisfying $$R \eqdist \sum_{i=1}^N C_i R_i +Q $$ where $\eqdist$ denotes equality in distribution, and $R, R_1,..., R_N$ are independent identically distributed $\R^d$-valued random variables, and independent of $(C_1,..., C_N, Q)$. We briefly review conditions for the existence of solutions, and then study their asymptotic behaviour. We show that under natural conditions, these solutions exhibit heavy tails. Our results also cover the case of complex valued weights $(C_1,..., C_N)$.

description: Understanding the molecular machinery involved in transcriptional regulation is central to improving our knowledge of an organism’s development, disease, and evolution. The building blocks of this complex molecular machinery are an organism’s genomic DNA sequence and transcription factor proteins. Despite the vast amount of sequence data now available for many model organisms, predicting where transcription factors bind, often referred to as ‘motif detection’ is still incredibly challenging. In this study, we develop a novel bioinformatic approach to binding site prediction. We do this by extending pre-existing SVM approaches in an unbiased way to include all possible gapped k-mers, representing different combinations of complex nucleotide dependencies within binding sites. We show the advantages of this new approach when compared to existing SVM approaches, through a rigorous set of cross-validation experiments. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of our new approach by reporting on its improved performance on a set of 127 genomic regions known to regulate gene expression along the anterio-posterior axis in early Drosophila embryos.

description: This study uses a combination of stochastic optimization, statistical mechanical theory, and molecular simulation to test the extent to which the long-time dynamics of a single tracer particle can be enhanced by rationally modifying its interactions--and hence static correlations--with the other particles of a dense fluid. Specifically, a simulated annealing strategy is introduced that, when coupled with test-particle calculations from an accurate density functional theory, finds interactions that maximize either the tracer's partial molar excess entropy or a related pair-correlation measure (i.e., two quantities known to correlate with tracer diffusivity in other contexts). The optimized interactions have soft, Yukawa-like repulsions, which extend beyond the hard-sphere interaction and disrupt the coordination-shell cage structure surrounding the tracer. Molecular and Brownian dynamics simulations find that tracers with these additional soft repulsions can diffuse more than three times faster than bare hard spheres in a moderately supercooled fluid, despite the fact that the former appear considerably larger than the latter by conventional definitions of particle size.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A two-year acoustic tagging experiment was conducted in the Plymouth Bay estuary to examine seasonal movement patterns of adult winter flounder. During the first year of the study, 47 individuals were fitted with acoustic transmitters and tracked using an array of 15 Vemco receivers. During the second year of the study, the passive array was expanded from 15 to 30 receivers and an additional 25 flounder were tagged within the array, allowing more direct tests of alternative hypotheses about spawning migrations. Telemetry data suggests that seasonal movements within the estuary were strongly associated with water temperature. A proportion of tagged flounder migrated into the estuary in the spring as water temperature increased, while others remained in coastal waters. Of those individuals that entered the estuary in the spring, the majority emigrated to coastal waters in June, when water temperatures in the estuary exceeded 15o C. A small portion (n=5) of tagged fish were detected reentering the estuary in autumn, as water temperatures decreased to less than 15 oC. Tagged flounder exhibited spatially and temporally diverse movements, and it appears that sympatric, contingent spawning groups of winter flounder may occur within this relatively small geographic area.
An experimental study of the surface distribution of filler material in paper
Creators: name: Serles, Andrew
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: A series of experiments were conducted to observe the effect of different pulp suspension and formation characteristics on the variation in filler concentration on the surface of paper. Hand sheet samples were formed in a laboratory apparatus. The surface distribution of two types of filler material was investigated: Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃) and Kaolin Clay (Al₂Si₂O₅(OH)₄). The effect of retention aids, dewatering rate, and forming fabric geometry on filler distribution was tested. The analysis was focused on the variation in surface filler concentrations on the scale of individual strands of the forming fabric. The procedure involved locating areas of interest in the samples, particularly the area of paper formed over knuckles, threads, and openings in the fabric, at which point the sample was analysed with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy and image analysis techniques to determine relative filler concentrations. In samples formed by gravity and vacuum drainage, Kaolin displayed a significantly greater variation in local surface filler concentration than PCC, though the difference was reduced under vacuum drainage conditions. This effect is attributed to the electrostatic attraction between PCC and pulp fibres in contrast with the repulsion felt by Kaolin filler. The attraction resists the distributing forces of the flow at low drainage velocities but the bonds are broken by large shear forces. The distribution on the top side of the paper was comparable between the filler types, due to the more uniform flow field at a distance from the forming fabric. Vacuum drainage increased the spatial variation of both fillers by a similar amount. It was found that under vacuum drainage, retention aids did not improve filler uniformity on the wire side. However, on the top side of the paper, a moderate reduction in spatial variation was observed. Additionally, on the wire side of samples made with gravity drainage, it was found that the addition of retention aids produced a significant improvement in the uniformity of the filler material. Finally, it was found that a finer forming fabric improved the uniformity of filler distribution.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Today’s EMF can be described through satellite measurement derived field models (IGRF - International Geomagnetic Reference Field, Figure 1.) The EMF is described by the magnetic elements, visualized in Figure 2. By choosing appropriate elements observed at a given locality, it is in principle possible to determine the geographic position of this locality by comparing these values with the IGRF (see Figure 1). By measuring and storing magnetic element-readings from a registration tag attached to a fish, recovering the tag will potentially enable tracking the migration pattern. The earth is immersed in its EMF – consequently the proposed concept may be applied globally. Limitations of the concept: The EMF varies in a broad range of time-scales. For the present purpose, only short time variations are important (Figure 3). Registered magnetic element-readings must hence be corrected for these variations. For the north Atlantic, time variations of magnetic elements can be obtained from numerous magnetic observatories (Iceland, Norway, etc). The proposed concept will only be applicable in regions where isolines of magnetic elements are close to orthogonal. We have used Z and H, which are “suitable” off the coast of northern Norway/Barents Sea, but less so off the western coast of Norway (Fig. 1).

description: We study the covering of the plane by non-overlapping rhombus tiles, a problem well-studied only in the limiting case of dimer coverings of regular lattices. We go beyond this limit by allowing tiles to take any position and orientation on the plane, to be of irregular shape, and to possess different types of attractive interactions. Using extensive numerical simulations we show that at large tile densities there is a phase transition from a fluid of rhombus tiles to a solid packing with broken rotational symmetry. We observe self-assembly of broken-symmetry phases, even at low densities, in the presence of attractive tile-tile interactions. Depending on tile shape and interactions the solid phase can be random, possessing critical orientational fluctuations, or crystalline. Our results suggest strategies for controlling tiling order in experiments involving `molecular rhombi'.

description: An analytic extension of the Reissner-Nordstrom solution at and beyond the singularity is presented. The extension is obtained by using new coordinates in which the metric becomes degenerate at $r=0$. The metric is still singular in the new coordinates, but its components become finite and smooth. Using this extension it is shown that the charged and non-rotating black hole singularities are compatible with the global hyperbolicity and with the conservation of the initial value data. Geometric models for electrically charged particles are obtained.

Optimal minimum capital requirement : a profitability and risk management approach
Creators: name: Campos, Luisa Braga
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: World banking operations shook during the Subprime Mortgage Crisis of 2008. This financial turmoil demonstrated that the international banking regulation, Basel II, had serious shortcomings and was not powerful enough to prevent a banking crisis. Researchers agree that Basel II underestimated the minimum capital requirement (MCR), requiring banks to hold insufficient capital to prevent the last crisis. The present research proposes a risk management framework for MCR calculations. The methodology has three stages: first, the development of a bank profit function (formulated following accounting principles and Profit Function Theory); second, the application of the previous function to derive the bank risk function(following the guidance of Modern Portfolio Theory); finally, the insertion of the latter function as the objective function into a constrained optimization (return on equity constraint). This framework is tested with aggregate data from Canadian banks from the period 2000 to 2010. The optimized capital (KO) is compared to the Basel II Standardized Approach MCR. The findings show that the profit function satisfactorily predicts bank profits, and it is useful development for future work. The risk function, however, does not properly represent the variance of profits. This together with the use of a linear constraint produced KO smaller than Basel II requirements, meaning that, as implemented, this framework cannot replace Basel II. Potential improvements to this framework are identified and proposed for further research. The most important contributions of this research are the development of the bank profit function and a preliminary exploration of this optimization framework to MCR determination. Although, in the current stage of its development, this framework cannot replace Basel II, it presents a new approach to MCR calculations that has the potential to strengthen international banking regulation.

A sequential Monte Carlo approach to gene expression deconvolution

description: High-throughput gene expression data are often obtained from pure or complex (heterogeneous) biological samples. In the latter case, data obtained are a mixture of different cell types and the heterogeneity imposes some difficulties in the analysis of such data. In order to make conclusions on gene expresssion data obtained from heterogeneous samples, methods such as microdissection and flow cytometry have been employed to physically separate the constituting cell types. However, these manual approaches are time consuming when measuring the responses of multiple cell types simultaneously. In addition, exposed samples, on many occasions, end up being contaminated with external perturbations and this may result in an altered yield of molecular content. In this paper, we model the heterogeneous gene expression data using a Bayesian framework, treating the cell type proportions and the cell-type specific expressions as the parameters of the model. Specifically, we present a novel sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) sampler for estimating the model parameters by approximating their posterior distributions with a set of weighted samples. The SMC framework is a robust and efficient approach where we construct a sequence of artificial target (posterior) distributions on spaces of increasing dimensions which admit the distributions of interest as marginals. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on simulated datasets and publicly available real datasets, including Affymetrix oligonucleotide arrays and national center for biotechnology information (NCBI) gene expression omnibus (GEO), with varying number of cell types. The results obtained on all datasets show a superior performance with an improved accuracy in the estimation of cell type proportions and the cell-type specific expressions, and in addition, more accurate identification of differentially expressed genes when compared to other widely known methods for blind decomposition of heterogeneous gene expression data such as Dsection and the nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) algorithms. MATLAB implementation of the proposed SMC algorithm is available to download at https://github.com/moyanre/smcgenedeconv.git.

description: We present results for the spectrum of light and strange mesons on configurations with two flavors of mass-degenerate Chirally Improved sea quarks. The calculations are performed on seven ensembles of lattice size 16^3x32 at three different gauge couplings and with pion masses ranging from 250 to 600 MeV. To reliably extract excited states, we use the variational method with an interpolator basis containing both gaussian and derivative quark sources. Both conventional and exotic channels up to spin 2 are considered. Strange quarks are treated within the partially quenched approximation. For kaons we investigate the mixing of interpolating fields corresponding to definite C-parity in the SU(3) limit. This enlarged basis allows for an improved determination of the low-lying kaon spectrum. In addition to masses we also extract the ratio of the pseudoscalar decay constants of the kaon and pion and obtain F_K/F_π=1.215(41). The results presented here include some ensembles from previous publications and the corresponding results supersede the previously published values.

Bacterial cyclooxygenase homologs might be associated with multicellularity

description: This research continues our project on oxylipin signalling evolution. In our previous research, we found that lipoxygenases are associated with multicellularity and host-pathogen interactions. In this poster, we present the preliminary results of similar bioinformatic studies on cyclooxygenase homologs. Using phylogenetic methods, we have found that human and mammal cyclooxygenases are a part of a group including bacterial enzymes with putative fatty acid-oxidizing functions (we called it "Our cluster"). In contrast, plant alpha-dioxygenases have probably emerged as lipid-oxidizing enzymes independently. Finally, we have revealed that "Our cluster" enzymes show statistical association with multicellular forms, which could be considered as the same trend as with lipoxygenases — the link between oxylipins and multicellularity.

description: We study the quantum phases of one-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures in optical lattices. Assuming repulsive interparticle interactions, equal mass, and unit total filling, we calculate the ground-state phase diagram by means of both Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory and time-evolving block decimation method. We demonstrate the existence of a counterflow superfluid (CFSF) phase of polaron pairs, which are composite particles consisting of two fermions and two bosonic holes, in a broad range of the parameter space. We find that this phase naturally emerges in $^{174}$Yb-$^{173}$Yb mixtures, realized in recent experiments, at low temperatures.

description: Background:
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have emerged as an urgent public health threat. Intestinal colonization with CRE has been identified as a risk factor for the development of systemic CRE infection, but has not been compared to colonization with third and/or fourth generation cephalosporin-resistant (Ceph-R) Enterobacteriaceae. Moreover, the risk conferred by colonization on adverse outcomes is less clear, particularly in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods:
We carried out a cohort study of consecutive adult patients screened for rectal colonization with CRE or Ceph-R upon ICU entry between April and July 2013. We identified clinical variables and assessed the relationship between CRE or Ceph-R colonization and subsequent systemic CRE infection within 30 days (primary outcome) and all-cause mortality within 90 days (secondary outcome).

Results:
Among 338 ICU patients, 94 (28%) were colonized with either Ceph-R or CRE. 26 patients developed CRE infection within 30 days of swab collection; 47% (N = 17/36) of CRE-colonized and 3% (N = 2/58) of Ceph-R colonized patients. 36% (N = 13/36) of CRE-colonized patients died within 90 days compared to 31% (N = 18/58) of Ceph-R-colonized and 15% (N = 37/244) of non-colonized patients. In a multivariable analysis, CRE colonization independently predicted development of a systemic CRE infection at 30 days (aOR 10.8, 95% CI2.8–41.9, p = 0.0006); Ceph-R colonization did not (aOR 0.5, 95% CI0.1–3.3, p = 0.5). CRE colonization was associated with increased 90-day mortality in a univariable analysis (p-value 0.001), in a multivariable model, previous hospitalization and medical ICU admission were independent predictors of 90-day mortality whereas CRE colonization approached significance (aOR 2.3, 95% CI1.0–5.3, p = 0.056).

Conclusions:
Our study highlights the increased risk of CRE infection and mortality in patients with CRE colonization at the time of ICU admission. Future studies are needed to assess how CRE colonization can guide empiric antibiotic choices and to develop novel decolonization strategies.

A triflate-bound species could be generated in organic solvents using stoichiometric amounts of triflic acid and was shown to be synthetically viable for hydride abstraction from Et SiH. It was demonstrated that the para-position on the -C F rings is the primary point of attack for decomposition of the cation. 3 6 5
How school principals understand and respond to homophobia : a study of one B.C. public school district using ethnodrama
Creators: name: Perkins, Christine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: This research focuses on educational leadership and social justice in British Columbia public schools. Specifically, the study looks at how principals and vice-principals understand and respond to homophobia in one school district. The researcher examines six administrators’ understandings of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirited, intersex, queer, and questioning (LGBTTIQQ) issues following a critical approach and using ethnodrama to present and analyze the data. The researcher is an insider as she is a principal in the district being examined. The resulting tensions, confusion, and reflective practices all assist in the exploration of the research. The study makes connections from the general to the particular, from the personal to the institutional, and from the page to the stage all the while examining and spotlighting thoughts, values, beliefs, and opinions around LGBTTIQQ issues in our public schools. The research uncovers a lack of catalytic leadership in support of social justice. Ethnodrama proves to be an imaginative and powerful tool not only in highlighting the “truth” in the data collected but in revealing people’s inner understandings and, sadly, lack of responses, to the needs of the LGBTTIQQ community. Not only is socially just leadership faltering, but principals are not supported at the district and provincial levels by explicit policies, adequate postsecondary education, or professional development around LGBTTIQQ issues. This research aims to make visible the invisible and help lead the way toward more socially just schools.

description: Wave propagation in a stratified fluid / porous medium is studied here using analytical and numerical methods. The semi-analytical method is based on an exact stiffness matrix method coupled with a matrix conditioning procedure, preventing the occurrence of poorly conditioned numerical systems. Special attention is paid to calculating the Fourier integrals. The numerical method is based on a high order finite-difference time-domain scheme. Mesh refinement is applied near the interfaces to discretize the slow compressional diffusive wave predicted by Biot's theory. Lastly, an immersed interface method is used to discretize the boundary conditions. The numerical benchmarks are based on realistic soil parameters and on various degrees of hydraulic contact at the fluid / porous boundary. The time evolution of the acoustic pressure and the porous velocity is plotted in the case of one and four interfaces. The excellent level of agreement found to exist between the two approaches confirms the validity of both methods, which cross-checks them and provides useful tools for future researches.

description: Tropical deforestation contributes to the build-up of atmospheric carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Within the deforestation process, fire is frequently used to eliminate biomass in preparation for agricultural use. Quantifying these deforestation-induced fire emissions represents a challenge, and current estimates are only available at coarse spatial resolution with large uncertainty. Here we developed a biogeochemical model using remote sensing observations of plant productivity, fire activity, and deforestation rates to estimate emissions for the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso during 2001–2005. Our model of DEforestation CArbon Fluxes (DECAF) runs at 250-m spatial resolution with a monthly time step to capture spatial and temporal heterogeneity in fire dynamics in our study area within the ''arc of deforestation'', the southern and eastern fringe of the Amazon tropical forest where agricultural expansion is most concentrated. Fire emissions estimates from our modelling framework were on average 90 Tg C year−1, mostly stemming from fires associated with deforestation (74%) with smaller contributions from fires from conversions of Cerrado or pastures to cropland (19%) and pasture fires (7%). In terms of carbon dynamics, about 80% of the aboveground living biomass and litter was combusted when forests were converted to pasture, and 89% when converted to cropland because of the highly mechanized nature of the deforestation process in Mato Grosso. The trajectory of land use change from forest to other land uses often takes more than one year, and part of the biomass that was not burned in the dry season following deforestation burned in consecutive years. This led to a partial decoupling of annual deforestation rates and fire emissions, and lowered interannual variability in fire emissions. Interannual variability in the region was somewhat dampened as well because annual emissions from fires following deforestation and from maintenance fires did not covary, although the effect was small due to the minor contribution of maintenance fires. Our results demonstrate how the DECAF model can be used to model deforestation fire emissions at relatively high spatial and temporal resolutions. Detailed model output is suitable for policy applications concerned with annual emissions estimates distributed among post-clearing land uses and science applications in combination with atmospheric emissions modelling to provide constrained global deforestation fire emissions estimates. DECAF currently estimates emissions from fire; future efforts can incorporate other aspects of net carbon emissions from deforestation including soil respiration and regrowth.

description: Power point presentation given at the 12th International meeting for phytolith research on the 08/09/2021 for the session #256 -"Phytoliths biogeochemistry - From phytoliths formation and role in modern plants to new proxies for archaeology and palaeoecology". Phytolith formation is related to the plant’s transpiration stream which in turn depends on water availability. As such, phytolith analysis have previously been used to explore past water regimes in archaeolobotanical samples. For crops of agricultural interest, like some C4 grasses, the mechanisms of phytolith formation are not yet completely understood and there is debate whether genetically and environmentally controlled morphotypes are informative about water availability. The aim of our research, conducted within the framework of the project RAINDROPS (9ERC-Stg 759800), was to test if phytoliths from C4 crops could be used to identify different water regimes in archaeological contexts. Therefore, we carried out an experimental cultivation of ten traditional landraces each of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.Moench), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.R.Br.) and finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.Gaertn.), simulating irrigated and rain-fed scenarios. Experiments were conducted in lysimeters, which allowed us to keep a tight control on water regimes while plants grew in field-like conditions. Our first set of analysis concentrated on leaf samples, being the site of most transpiration, and consequently were assumed to produce the strongest variability among the different phytolith morphotypes. In this paper we presentation the first results of analyses on phytolith concentration and morphotype assemblages. We found that millets presented similar patterns, producing more phytoliths in well-water conditions, whereas sorghum response was independent of the water regime. The ratio between fixed and sensitive morphotypes discriminated water availability only for some landraces. Within the same species, not all landraces responded equally to water treatments, suggesting that silica accumulation and morphotypes production might also be influenced by genetics. Future steps will include the analysis of stems and chaffs to construct a complete picture of how water availability affects phytolith production and to better assess the potential use of C4phytoliths for archaeological studies on past agricultural systems.

description: We investigate four-dimensional, self-dual gravitational instantons endowed with a product structure RxM_3, where M_3 is homogeneous of Bianchi type. We analyze the general conditions under which Euclidean-time evolution in the gravitational instanton can be identified with a geometric flow of a metric on M_3. This includes both unimodular and non-unimodular groups, and the corresponding geometric flow is a general Ricci plus Yang-Mills flow accompanied by a diffeomorphism.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Understanding the impact of environmental stress in fish is a main topic in the present research within the discussions about good welfare and the examination of fish health. The present work reflects the scientific research on an innovative telemetric system for non-invasive simultaneous monitoring of multiple physiological and behavioural parameters of free swimming fish. The miniaturization of the system allows the integrated measurment of the temperature, heart rate, breathing rate, electrical potential and resistance of the skin as well as the three-dimensional swimming acceleration. Based on an on-line analysis, informations about physiology and behaviour suffer a automatically solid analysis about health and physiological fitness for questions of behavioural ecological and/ or ecophysiological approaches.

description: We consider the multi-Regge limit for N=4 SYM NMHV leading color amplitudes in two different formulations: the BFKL formalism for multi-Regge amplitudes in leading logarithm approximation, and superconformal N=4 SYM amplitudes. It is shown that the two approaches agree to two-loops for the 2->4 and 3->3 six-point amplitudes. Predictions are made for the multi-Regge limit of three loop 2->4 and 3->3 NMHV amplitudes, as well as a particular sub-set of two loop 2 ->2 +n N^kMHV amplitudes in the multi-Regge limit in the leading logarithm approximation from the BFKL point of view.
