Year: 2025

description: An increase in human activities and high population growth have significantly increased the world’senergy source of demands. The major source of energy for the world today is from fossil fuels, which arepolluting and degrading the environment due to the emission of greenhouse gases. Usage of Gaseous fuelssuch as acetylene and hydrogen in an IC engines with the methods and production is going to be analyzedin this paper.Acetylene and hydrogen gas is an identified efficient energy carrier and can be obtainedthrough various renewable sources. An overview of acetylene and hydrogen production by variousmethods and its usage in the Compression ignition engine is going to be reviewed. In the review, theanalysis of properties such as density, Cetane number, calorific value, stoichiometric air fuel ratio, Autoignition temperature, Flammability limits, ignition energy, and maximum deflagration speed differs forboth the fuels. In addition to that, the method of inducting both the gaseous fuels in CI engines is to befocused in its usage. Both the gaseous fuels are very hazardous in its usage and implementation in CIEngines. Also the safety method of inducting gaseous fuels such as flame trap, flame arrestors to resistthe back fire is also analyzed. The various analysis such as performance, emission and combustioncharacteristics by implementing / inducting this gaseous fuel in CI engines is focused in this review.

description: We show that the cosmological moduli problem is solved, without relying on huge late-time entropy production, if the universal cutoff scale of the theory is a few orders of magnitude smaller than the Planck scale. We obtain a general estimate of the modulus abundance in terms of the inflationary scale and the reheating temperature, and find in particular that the reheating temperature can be high enough for the non-thermal leptogenesis to work.

Tōkeiji's business : the agency of nuns in the early modern period
Creators: name: Lee, Nicolette
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: This thesis explores the agency of nuns at elite convents by focusing on how they successfully acted within the constraints of social regulations during the early modern period. I use agency as a tool to examine issues of representation and authority of the nuns in response to arguments that stress nuns are marginalized in the broader study of Japanese Buddhism. This thesis explores that the study of nuns is not about uncovering marginalized representations, but evaluating the agency and authority of nuns as relative to their contemporaries, such as other monks and public authorities. I primarily focus on Tōkeiji, the famous divorce temple (enkiridera 縁切寺), supplemented by examples from imperial convents (bikuni gosho 比丘尼御所) of the early modern period. Chapter 1 focuses on divorce as a pivotal issue to discuss agency, representation, and authority of the wife who requested divorce and of the abbess who guaranteed the divorce by temple code law. Chapter 2 reexamines the theoretical and actual the power relations within the personnel structure especially in regard to the temple hierarchy. Chapter 3 reviews the significant connection between financial management and influential familial patrons. Chapter 4 explores the multifaceted nature of the temple. I reach the conclusion that a different perspective on approaching the study of nuns at elite convents enables us to move away from the repetitive debate on whether nuns are considered independent. Instead, the approach to assess how the nuns used their resources in their network as ritual specialists, politicians, and businesspeople presents a comprehensive examination of an Edo period nun.

description: Smart premise selection is essential when using automated reasoning as a tool for large-theory formal proof development. A good method for premise selection in complex mathematical libraries is the application of machine learning to large corpora of proofs. This work develops learning-based premise selection in two ways. First, a newly available minimal dependency analysis of existing high-level formal mathematical proofs is used to build a large knowledge base of proof dependencies, providing precise data for ATP-based re-verification and for training premise selection algorithms. Second, a new machine learning algorithm for premise selection based on kernel methods is proposed and implemented. To evaluate the impact of both techniques, a benchmark consisting of 2078 large-theory mathematical problems is constructed,extending the older MPTP Challenge benchmark. The combined effect of the techniques results in a 50% improvement on the benchmark over the Vampire/SInE state-of-the-art system for automated reasoning in large theories.

description: Earthquake network is known to be complex in the sense that it is scale-free, small-world, hierarchically organized and assortatively mixed. Here, the time evolution of earthquake network is analyzed around main shocks in the context of the community structure. It is found that the maximum of the modularity measure quantifying existence of communities exhibits a peculiar behavior: its maximum value stays at a large value before a main shock, suddenly drops to a small value at the main shock, and then increases to relax to a large value again relatively slowly. Thus, a main shock absorbs and merges communities to create a larger community, showing how a main shock can be characterized in the complex-network representation of seismicity.

description: We show how Noether conservation laws can be obtained from the particle relabelling symmetries in the Euler-Poincaré theory of ideal fluids with advected quantities. All calculations can be performed without Lagrangian variables, by using the Eulerian vector fields that generate the symmetries, and we identify the time-evolution equation that these vector fields satisfy. When advected quantities (such as advected scalars or densities) are present, there is an additional constraint that the vector fields must leave the advected quantities invariant. We show that if this constraint is satisfied initially then it will be satisfied for all times. We then show how to solve these constraint equations in various examples to obtain evolution equations from the conservation laws. We also discuss some fluid conservation laws in the Euler-Poincaré theory that do not arise from Noether symmetries, and explain the relationship between the conservation laws obtained here, and the Kelvin-Noether theorem given in Section 4 of Holm, Marsden and Ratiu, {\it Adv. in Math.}, 1998.

description: We consider an extended theory of Horava-Lifshitz gravity with the detailed balance condition softly breaking, but without the projectability condition. With the former, the number of independent coupling constants is significantly reduced. With the latter and by extending the original foliation-preserving diffeomorphism symmetry $ {Diff}(M, {\cal{F}})$ to include a local U(1) symmetry, the spin-0 gravitons are eliminated. Thus, all the problems related to them disappear, including the instability, strong coupling, and different speeds in the gravitational sector. When the theory couples to a scalar field, we find that the scalar field is not only stable in both the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR), but also free of the strong coupling problem, because of the presence of high-order spatial derivative terms of the scalar field. Furthermore, applying the theory to cosmology, we find that due to the additional U(1) symmetry, the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe is necessarily flat. We also investigate the scalar, vector, and tensor perturbations of the flat FRW universe, and derive the general linearized field equations for each kind of the perturbations.

description: We explore how to extract effective dynamics from loop quantum gravity and spinfoams truncated to a finite fixed graph, with the hope of modeling symmetry-reduced gravitational systems. We particularize our study to the 2-vertex graph with N links. We describe the canonical data using the recent formulation of the phase space in terms of spinors, and implement a symmetry-reduction to the homogeneous and isotropic sector. From the canonical point of view, we construct a consistent Hamiltonian for the model and discuss its relation with Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies. Then, we analyze the dynamics from the spinfoam approach. We compute exactly the transition amplitude between initial and final coherent spin networks states with support on the 2-vertex graph, for the choice of the simplest two-complex (with a single space-time vertex). The transition amplitude verifies an exact differential equation that agrees with the Hamiltonian constructed previously. Thus, in our simple setting we clarify the link between the canonical and the covariant formalisms.

description: We analytically compute the Renyi entropies for the RSOS models, representing a wide class of exactly solvable models with multicritical conformal points described by unitary minimal models and $\mathbb{Z}_n$ parafermions. The exact expressions allow for an explicit comparison of the expansions around the critical points with the predictions coming from field theory. In this way it is possible to point out the nature of the so-called "unusual corrections", clarifying the link with the operator content, the role of the symmetries and the boundary conditions. By choosing different boundary conditions, we can single out the ground states as well as certain combinations of high energy states. We find that the {\it entanglement spectrum} is given by operators that are not present in the bulk Hamiltonian, although they belong to the same representation of a Virasoro Algebra. In the parafermionic case we observe unexpected logarithmic corrections.

We find that the total number of the Majorana zero energy bound states is governed not only by the gapless helical mode but also by the massive modes localized at the junction interface. The result implies that the topological protection for Majorana zero modes in class D heterostructure junctions may be broken down under a particular but realistic condition.

Exact equivalence between one-dimensional Bose gases interacting via hard-sphere and zero-range potentials

description: We prove the equivalence between the hard-sphere Bose gas and a system with momentum-dependent zero-range interactions in one spatial dimension, which we call extended hard-sphere Bose gas. The two-body interaction in the latter model has the advantage of being a regular pseudopotential. The most immediate consequence is the existence of its Fourier transform, permitting the formulation of the problem in momentum space, not possible with the original hard-core interaction. In addition, in the extended system, interactions are defined in terms of the scattering length, positive or negative, identified with the hard-sphere diameter only when it is positive. We are then able to obtain, directly in the thermodynamic limit, the ground state energy of the strongly repulsive Lieb-Liniger gas and, more importantly, the energy of the lowest-lying super Tonks-Girardeau gas state with finite, strongly attractive interactions, in perturbation theory from the novel extended hard-sphere Bose gas. Tan relations involving the large-momentum behavior of the Lieb-Liniger gas are also derived, and then applied to the super Tonks-Girardeau gas within our perturbative approach.

We propose a general maximum likelihood framework which allows us to estimate simultaneously the parameters of the model and the density of the innovations. This framework can be easily adapted to many well-known models, including ARMA, GARCH and ARMA-GARCH. Furthermore, we show that the estimator under our new framework is consistent in both ARMA and ARMA-GARCH settings. We demonstrate its finite sample performance via a thorough simulation study and apply it to model the daily log-return of FTSE 100 index and the rabbit population.

"Living the dream" atop Whistler Mountain : the malaise of modernity and Vancouver's leisure culture
Creators: name: Johns, Samuel Gregory
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Our modern age is purportedly like a mountain; high and mighty, worthy in stature and significance. Perhaps we live in the Everest era, atop the summit of achievements in science, technology, and innovation. If so, then modernity should be viewed as untroubled progress. Yet Charles Taylor's malaise of modernity presents us with a rather different view. Given the pervasive logics of individualism, instrumental reason, and a loss of freedom, the onward march of modernity should perhaps be met with more resistance. Taylor charges us to recognize such inherent contestation. The case study of a leisure culture in Vancouver, British Columbia, sheds light on this tension. An elite class of young urban professionals is observed to respond to Taylor's malaise by escaping and returning to nature, notably the Coast Mountains. Twenty in-depth interviews were conducted to examine their refusals of the metropolitan auspices of the malaise, manifest in the pursuit of heroism, awe and wonder, and vitality, all of which reify mountain culture. Yet the call and response are far from simple. Rather, a riddle of sorts emerges. Given the logics, technologies, and terrain of escape, the grip of the malaise seems as tight on the mountainside as in the metropolis. Taylor serves as a valuable guide in this fraught terrain. His 'work of retrieval' informs a pursuit of the richer sources feeding this culture. Logics of social atomism, fragmentation, and instrumentalism are examined. In doing so, a critique of radical anthropocentrism is mounted, challenging the young professionals’ attitudes towards fulfillment. Does this quest for meaning negate nature, society, history, tradition, and even God? These questions reveal potential limits to the modern frame, in its individualized, secularized, and subjectivized versions. The mountain emerges as a powerful conceptual image amidst this analysis. In times of clarity and confusion, the permanence and perspective of the mountain are to be treasured. Whilst Leopold's call of 'Thinking like a Mountain' is considered, the limitations of a mountainous group, in the Coast Mountains, atop the 21st Century informational mountain are duly noted. The hope is that Taylor's 'work of retrieval' can, after all, enlarge the frame.

description: We study the computational content of the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem in the Weihrauch lattice. Connected choice is the operation that finds a point in a non-empty connected closed set given by negative information. One of our main results is that for any fixed dimension the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem of that dimension is computably equivalent to connected choice of the Euclidean unit cube of the same dimension. Another main result is that connected choice is complete for dimension greater than or equal to two in the sense that it is computably equivalent to Weak Kőnig's Lemma. While we can present two independent proofs for dimension three and upwards that are either based on a simple geometric construction or a combinatorial argument, the proof for dimension two is based on a more involved inverse limit construction. The connected choice operation in dimension one is known to be equivalent to the Intermediate Value Theorem; we prove that this problem is not idempotent in contrast to the case of dimension two and upwards. We also prove that Lipschitz continuity with Lipschitz constants strictly larger than one does not simplify finding fixed points. Finally, we prove that finding a connectedness component of a closed subset of the Euclidean unit cube of any dimension greater or equal to one is equivalent to Weak Kőnig's Lemma. In order to describe these results, we introduce a representation of closed subsets of the unit cube by trees of rational complexes.

description: Geospatial technology is still a growth area and knowledge of these technologies remains essential for a skilled workforce. In higher education, geospatial curriculum design is predominantly determined by educators and is influenced by what educators believe should be taught. Knowledge of national or regional provision can support a richer understanding of expected provision and areas of over or under-provision to better support the needs of varied geospatial roles and identify possible programme specialisations. In this paper, we describe an approach for evaluating Aotearoa New Zealand’s provision of geospatial education in the tertiary education sector. First, we examine and compare current course offerings in New Zealand’s tertiary sector against selected institutions in five countries using the GIS&T Body of Knowledge and Geospatial Technology Competency Model as a framework for comparison. Second, we evaluate the results of a focus-group workshop of geospatial education providers and geospatial industry stakeholders about perceived needs in geospatial education in New Zealand. We find this approach works well to support a better understanding of what is provided for both educators and industry. By including industry geospatial professionals in identifying perceived gaps, educators’ knowledge of industry needs will grow as well as industry’s understanding of current provision.
Casimir amplitudes and capillary condensation of near-critical fluids between parallel plates: Renormalized local functional theory

description: We investigate the critical behavior of a near-critical fluid confined between two parallel plates in contact with a reservoir by calculating the order parameter profile and the Casimir amplitudes (for the force density and for the grand potential). Our results are applicable to one-component fluids and binary mixtures. We assume that the walls absorb one of the fluid components selectively for binary mixtures. We propose a renormalized local functional theory accounting for the fluctuation effects. Analysis is performed in the plane of the temperature T and the order parameter in the reservoir ψ_{\infty} . Our theory is universal if the physical quantities are scaled appropriately. If the component favored by the walls is slightly poor in the reservoir, there appears a line of first-order phase transition of capillary condensation outside the bulk coexistence curve. The excess adsorp- tion changes discontinuously between condensed and noncondensed states at the transition. With increasing T, the transition line ends at a capillary critical point T = T_c^{ca} slightly lower than the bulk critical temperature T_c. The Casimir amplitudes are larger than their critical-point values by 10-100 times between the transition line and the bulk coexistence curve and slightly above the capillary critical point.

description: This study aims to evaluate the anti-Leishmania major and the lung adenocarcinoma (A549) cytotoxicity of Withania somnifera root and fruit. The total extracts were obtained by homogenisation in aqueous MeOH, and the sub-extracts [n-hexane, ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butanol (n-BuOH), and methanol (MeOH)] were obtained by flash chromatography. The activity evaluation showed that n-BuOH sub-extracts from root and fruit exhibited noticeable antileishmanial promastigote properties. The n-hexane and EtOAc sub-extracts from both organs, and the MeOH sub-extract from the fruit exerted mild to moderate effects on the promastigotes. In-vitro growth-inhibitory test results on axenic amastigote and cytotoxicity testing on macrophages (RAW264.7), the parasite-host at the amastigote stage, revealed that the activity was mainly concentrated in the root EtOAc and n-BuOH sub-extracts and to a lesser extent the fruit MeOH and EtOAc, and the root n-hexane sub-extracts. Only the roots' EtOAc and n-BuOH sub-extracts demonstrated low cytotoxicity on the A549 cell line.

description: Optical Hall conductivity, as directly related to Faraday rotation, is theoretically studied for bilayer and trilayer graphene. In bilayer graphene, the trigonal warping of the band dispersion greatly affects the resonance structures in Faraday rotation not only in the low-energy region where small Dirac cones emerge, but also in the higher-energy parabolic bands as a sequence of satellite resonances. In ABA-stacked trilayer, the resonance spectrum is a superposition of effective monolayer and bilayer contributions with band gaps, while ABC trilayer exhibits a distinct spectrum peculiar to the cubic-dispersed bands with a strong trigonal warping, where the signals associated with low-energy Dirac cones should be directly observable owing to a large Lifshitz transition energy ($\sim 10 meV$).

description: In this article, we engage with undergraduate geography students’ reflections on their geography education. We begin by examining the position of geography within education across the British Isles. Following this, we critically consider how geography education is shaped by “the gap” between school and university geography and geographies of education, before reporting on the findings from a survey of 333 undergraduate students studying geography across the British Isles conducted in late 2020. We examine the complex question of who is studying geography at undergraduate level, students’ journeys through their geography degree, and their experiences of personal and disciplinary frontiers in education. We conclude by arguing the importance of educators engaging with students’ “everyday” geographies, and for further research into progress across education phases in geography to co-construct a rich and rounded geographic education.

description: Using first-principles calculations we show that the band gap of bilayer sheets of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can be reduced smoothly by applying vertical compressive pressure. These materials undergo a universal reversible semiconductor to metal (S-M) transition at a critical pressure. S-M transition is attributed to lifting the degeneracy of the bands at fermi level caused by inter-layer interactions via charge transfer from metal to chalcogens. The S-M transition can be reproduced even after incorporating the band gap corrections using hybrid functionals and GW method. The ability to tune the band gap of TMDs in a controlled fashion over a wide range of energy, opens-up possibility for its usage in a range of applications.

The attentional repulsion effect is influenced by non-perceptual manipulations
Creators: name: DiGiacomo, Alessandra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The Attentional Repulsion Effect (ARE) refers to the phenomenon whereby a central target consisting of two aligned lines is misperceived to be offset in the direction opposite a preceding peripheral visual event. The prevailing explanation is that the ARE results from a transient change in the visual receptive fields. In a series of three experiments, the present investigation tests and lends initial support to a different explanation: that the ARE arises from a comparison between different spatial reference frames. Without altering the task, we found that the ARE can be eliminated by simply introducing some trials where the top line is unambiguously located to the left or right of the bottom line. Changing the task from a directional to a non-directional one caused the classic ARE to disappear as well, although a new form of the ARE was discovered.

description: Minkowski Functionals (MFs) are topological statistics that have become one of many standard tools used for investigating the statistical properties of cosmological random fields. They have found regular use in studies of departures from Gaussianity in a number of important cosmological scenarios. Important examples include the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), weak lensing studies, 21cm surveys and large scale structure (LSS). To lowest order the MFs depend on three generalised skewness parameters that can be shown to probe the bispectrum with differing weights. Recent studies have advocated the use of a power spectrum associated with the bispectrum, called the skew-spectrum, that has more power to distinguish between various contributions to the bispectrum than the conventional formalism adopted when using the Minkowski Functionals. In this article we review the motivations for studying non-Gaussianity and emphasize the importance of the momentum dependence of higher order correlators in investigating both inflationary and early Universe models as well as analytical models for gravitational instability. We then introduce the skew-spectra, applied to galaxy surveys, as a tool for investigating various models for primordial and gravitationally induced non-Gaussianities. We present analytical expressions for the skew-spectra for the density field and divergence of the velocity field in 3D and for projected surveys as a function of redshift and a smoothing angular scale. A Gaussian window function is assumed throughout this paper. Analytical results are derived for the case of gravitationally induced non-Gaussianity. These results can be generalised to incorporate redshift space effects. This will be useful in probing primordial and gravitationally induced non-Gaussianity from ongoing and future galaxy surveys.

description: Recent observations for a non-zero $θ_{13}$ have come from various experiments. We study a model of lepton mixing with a 2-3 flavor symmetry to accommodate the sizable $θ_{13}$ measurement. In this work, we derive deviations from the tri-bimaximal (TBM) pattern arising from breaking the flavor symmetry in the neutrino sector, while the charged leptons contribution has been discussed in a previous work. Contributions from both sectors towards accommodating the non-zero $θ_{13}$ measurement are presented.

Effect of fatigue on torsional failure of nickel-titanium controlled memory instruments
Creators: name: Campbell, Les
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Abstract Introduction: This study was undertaken to understand how fatigue affects the torsional properties of both traditional nickel-titanium (NiTi) and nickel-titanium controlled memory (CM) files. Methods: Typhoon (TYP) 25.04 and 40.04 rotary files, in both NiTi and CM, were tested using a three-point bending apparatus to obtain the mean number of cycles to failure (mNCF). New files were precycled to four conditions (i.e., 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% of the mNCF) before torsional resistance tests were performed. Each file was exposed to torsional stress until failure, and at that point the torque and distortion angles were measured. The fracture surface of each fragment was examined with a scanning electron microscope. Results: The TYP CM files yielded a seven-fold improvement in mNCF over the TYP NiTi files (P ≤ 0.05). In both file sizes there was no difference in torque between the CM files and the conventional Ni-Ti files (P > 0.05). The torque of the size 40.04 files was significantly higher than the torque of the size 25/.04 files (P ≤ 0.05). In the 40.04 TYP files group, the 75% precycling group had a significantly lower torque to failure than the no precycling group (P ≤ 0.05). The CM files of both sizes had significantly higher distortion angles than the Ni-Ti files of both sizes (P ≤ 0.05). The 40.04 TYP CM files that were not precycled showed a significantly higher distortion angle than the precycled groups. The fractured files in the precycling groups showed the typical pattern of torsional failure. Conclusions: Cyclic fatigue has an effect on torsional fracture resistance of TYP and TYP CM files on size 40.04. TYP CM files displayed a similar torque value to TYP files but rotated a greater angle before fracture in both preloading and no preloading groups.
