description: When modelling discontinuities (interfaces) using the finite element method, the standard approach is to use a conforming finite-element mesh in which the mesh matches the interfaces. However, this approach can prove cumbersome if the geometry is complex, in particular in 3D. In this work, we develop an efficient technique for a non-conforming finite-element treatment of weak discontinuities by using laminated microstructures. The approach is inspired by the so-called composite voxel technique that has been developed for FFT-based spectral solvers in computational homogenization. The idea behind the method is rather simple. Each finite element that is cut by an interface is treated as a simple laminate with the volume fraction of the phases and the lamination orientation determined in terms of the actual geometrical arrangement of the interface within the element. The approach is illustrated by several computational examples relevant to the micromechanics of heterogeneous materials. Elastic and elastic-plastic materials at small and finite strain are considered in the examples. The performance of the proposed method is compared to two alternative, simple methods showing that the new approach is in most cases superior to them while maintaining the simplicity.
A study of the composition and function of telomeric chromatin in drosophila melanogaster.
Creators: name: Doheny, James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The telomeres of most organisms are characterized by a protein-capping complex that protects chromosome ends, a series of repetitive subtelomeric sequences known as Telomere-Associated Sequences (TAS), and a behavioral phenomenon known as Telomere Position Effect (TPE). TPE is a phenomenon whereby normally active genes become repressed and silenced if relocated near to telomeres, and is thought to be a property of the proteins that constitute telomeric heterochromatin. Genetic dissection was used to exploit this phenomenon in order to identify components of telomeric heterochromatin in Drosophila melanogaster. Using genetic dissection, followed by a chromatin analysis technique known as Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation (ChIP) I was able to identify three proteins, HDAC1, SU(VAR)3-9, and HP1c, as integral components of telomeric heterochromatin in Drosophila. HDAC1 and SU(VAR)3-9 are both believed to be involved in the gene-silencing process, and thus, their presence at telomeres could explain the phenomenon of TPE. Furthermore, I found that these proteins were specifically associated with the TAS region on the centromere-proximal side of the HeTA transposable elements that maintain telomere length in Drosophila. As a result of this, I proposed a model, which I call the ‘pairing-sliding model of telomere length control in Drosophila,’ which proposes that temporary incorrect pairing of Drosophila telomeres results in the deacetylation and subsequent methylation of the nucleosomes associated with the HeT-A and TART elements by TAS-associated HDAC1 and SU(VAR)3-9, resulting in these elements being transcriptionally silent. Thus, I propose that the TAS region, and the HDAC1 and SU(VAR)3-9 associated with it play a role in the negative regulation of telomere length in Drosophila.

description: Despite the remarkable advances in language modeling, current mainstream decoding methods still struggle to generate texts that align with human texts across different aspects. In particular, sampling-based methods produce less-repetitive texts which are often disjunctive in discourse, while search-based methods maintain topic coherence at the cost of increased repetition. Overall, these methods fall short in achieving holistic alignment across a broad range of aspects. In this work, we frame decoding from a language model as an optimization problem with the goal of strictly matching the expected performance with human texts measured by multiple metrics of desired aspects simultaneously. The resulting decoding distribution enjoys an analytical solution that scales the input language model distribution via a sequence-level energy function defined by these metrics. And most importantly, we prove that this induced distribution is guaranteed to improve the perplexity on human texts, which suggests a better approximation to the underlying distribution of human texts. To facilitate tractable sampling from this globally normalized distribution, we adopt the Sampling-Importance-Resampling technique. Experiments on various domains and model scales demonstrate the superiority of our method in metrics alignment with human texts and human evaluation over strong baselines.

Imagination and mediation: eighteenth-century British novels and moral philosophy.
Creators: name: Wells, Michael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: This study provides a new account of the evolution of the eighteenth-century British novel by reading it as a response to contemporary interest in, and self-consciousness about, print communication. During the eighteenth century, print went from being a marginal technology to being one with an increasingly wide circulation and a diverse range of applications. The pervasive adoption of print generated anxiety about its positive and negative effects, prompting a series of responses from writers. Examining the work of five British novelists from across the long eighteenth century, this dissertation investigates the influence of eighteenth-century philosophical thinking about human understanding and social interaction on the assumptions that these novelists made about the way their work would be received. In particular, this thesis explores the ways in which these novelists respond to contemporary philosophical ideas about the cognitive functions of the imagination by experimenting with the form of their work in order to generate new kinds of reception. But this study also shows that, while these five novelists drew on the tenets of eighteenth-century moral philosophy, their work exposed a number of the limitations of that philosophy by putting it into practice. Each chapter in this study focuses on a different aspect of the intersection of mediation and imagination. Chapter One considers the ways in which Locke's understanding of probability informed Richardson's attempts to promote specific affective reading practices with his epistolary fictions and editorial commentary. Chapter Two reads Sterne's manipulations of the material page in Tristram Shandy as an attempt to expose the limitations of print communication and to suggest new ways of reading that could overcome those limitations. Chapter Three examines the writing of Smith, Kames, Mackenzie, Reeve and Godwin in order to illustrate both the promise and the danger that these authors attribute to imaginative sympathy and to the reading practices that promote sympathetic reactions. Chapter Four explores Scott's experiments with a form of fiction that could collapse the distance between writing and orality in order to force readers to reevaluate the complex relationship of sound and writing in the establishment of communities in an age of print.
Application of a land use planning decision support tool in a public participatory process for sustainable forest management
Creators: name: Cavill, Jacqueline
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Persistent conflicts between stakeholders and complex trade offs among forest values have created a difficult decision environment for sustainable forest management. Tools developed for decision support in land use planning are essential for managing these challenges. This research study is an interactive assessment of a land use planning Decision Support Tool (DST) in the Invermere Timber Supply Area (TSA), located in the East Kootenay area of British Columbia. The aim of this study is to explore whether stakeholders' initial stated preferences change and whether trade-offs are made between various forest values upon observation of a long-term forecast of these values using a DST. Representatives from various stakeholder groups in the area were assembled for individual sessions to interact with the multi-criteria DST. Participants were required to state their preferences for six forest values using a weighting scheme. The DST developed an output for each forest value based on the participants' preferences. Upon review of the DST output, the participant had the opportunity to alter their initial preferences iteratively until a desirable output was found. The results indicate that participants' preferences changed after reviewing the DST outputs and that participants are willing to make trade-offs between various forest values using a DST to find a desirable solution. However, the preference order of the forest values changed only slightly from the participants' initial to preferred scenarios; instead participants made drastic changes to the weighting of each value to find a desirable output. Participants also stated their willingness to use DSTs for land use planning decision-making, although underlying assumptions built into the model must be improved before stakeholders can trust the tool as an aid for decision-making. Studies such as this can further the development of DSTs to help find desirable decisions for sustainable resource management and to help create a productive and engaging process.

description: In this work, we present a complete theoretical framework for analyzing the distribution of polarized hadrons within jets, with and without measuring the transverse momentum relative to the standard jet axis. Using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), we derive the factorization and provide the theoretical calculation of both semi-inclusive and exclusive fragmenting jet functions (FJFs) under longitudinal and transverse polarization. With the polarized FJFs, one gains access to a variety of new observables that can be used for extracting both collinear and transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs). As examples, we provide numerical results for the spin asymmetry $A_{TU,T}^{\cos(ϕ_S - \hatϕ_{S_h})}$ from polarized semi-inclusive hadron-in-jet production in polarized $pp$ collisions at RHIC kinematics, where a transversely polarized quark would lead to the transverse spin of the final-state hadron inside the jet and is thus sensitive to the transversity fragmentation functions. Similarly, another spin asymmetry, $A_{TU, L}^{\cos(ϕ_q - ϕ_{S})}$ from polarized exclusive hadron-in-jet production in polarized $ep$ collisions at EIC kinematics would allow us to access the helicity fragmentation functions. These observables demonstrate promising potential in investigating transverse momentum dependent PDFs and FFs and are worthwhile for further measurements.

description: While companies used to advertise primarily via mass media, marketing (in particular online) is becoming increasingly personalised. Personalised marketing offers benefits to consumers, but can also exploit their vulnerabilities. For example, personalised marketing enables companies to specifically target psychological weaknesses in consumers. This threatens their autonomy and increases the power asymmetry between companies and consumers. EU marketing law, and in particular the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive, aims at protecting consumers against economic harm by reducing power asymmetries between companies and consumers. This Article will discuss to what extent EU marketing law is future-proof in terms of its fitness to effectively protect consumers against personalised marketing techniques. It will be argued that the law is currently unfit to effectively protect consumers, and that recent legislative changes and proposals only address this problem to a limited extent. It is argued that a “quick fix” to make EU marketing law future-proof is not available, and that an overall redesign of EU marketing law is necessary to protect consumers against the personalised marketing techniques of today and tomorrow.

description: We discuss the possibility of self-hybridisation in high-index dielectric nanoparticles, where Mie modes of electric or magnetic type can couple to the interband transitions of the material, leading to spectral anticrossings. Starting with an idealised system described by moderately high constant permittivity with a narrow Lorentzian, in which self-hybridisation is visible for both plane-wave and electron-beam excitation, we embark on a quest for realistic systems where this effect should be visible. We explore a variety of spherical particles made of traditional semiconductors such as Si, GaAs, and GaP. With the effect hardly discernible, we identify two major causes hindering observation of self-hybridisation: the very broad spectral fingerprints of interband transitions in most candidate materials, and the significant overlap between electric and magnetic Mie modes in nanospheres. We thus depart from the spherical shape, and show that interband--Mie hybridisation is indeed feasible in the example of GaAs cylinders, even with a simple plane-wave source. This so-far unreported kind of polariton has to be considered when interpreting experimental spectra of Mie-resonant nanoparticles and assigning modal characters to specific features. On the other hand, it has the potential to be useful for the characterisation of the optical properties of dielectric materials, through control of the hybridisation strength via nanoparticle size and shape.

On the effect of competition and strategic consumer behavior in revenue management
Creators: name: Mantin, Binyamin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: In this thesis we investigate important issues in the area of dynamic pricing for revenue management. Studying the effect of competition and strategic consumer behavior, we characterize the dynamic pricing policies for retailers who sell homogeneous goods in multi-period, discrete time, ﬁnite horizon settings. In the ﬁrst essay an impatient consumer visits only one of two competing retailers in each period. If he does not purchase the good, he visits the competing retailer in the ensuing period. Compared to the corresponding single store monopoly, when the consumer’s valuation is uniformly distributed, prices decline exponentially rather than linearly, with a dramatically lower initial price, and a substantially lower system proﬁt. The model is extended to accommodate many consumers, who may be either identical or similar, a more general valuation distribution, and situations wherein capacities are limited. The base case of a centralized two-store monopoly is also examined. In the second essay the consumer may return to the same retailer with some certain probability. This probability is either affected by market structure characteristics, or it may depend on the consumer’s experience at the last store visited. The robustness of the exponential decline of prices is reinforced. It occurs even when a strong retailer faces competition from a relatively much weaker retailer. We investigate the impact of the return probabilities on prices, proﬁts, and consumer surplus. The model is extended to an oligopoly, and to situations with many similar consumers. The effect of strategic consumer behavior on prices and proﬁts is revealed in the third essay. Characterizing the pricing policies arising in a two-period monopoly and duopoly settings, we find that strategic consumer behavior inflicts larger losses to a duopoly than to a monopoly. A lower strategic consumers’ discounting factor, which is beneficial to a monopoly, may be harmful to a duopoly. Ignoring strategic consumer behaviour is costly to a monopoly, but may, on the other hand, be beneficial to a duopoly. An extension to three periods is studied, and with longer horizons the model is analyzed for the case when all the consumers are strategic.

description: The most massive galaxy clusters in the Universe host hundreds of massive satellite galaxies~$\mstar\sim10^{10-12.5} msun$, but it is unclear if these satellites are able to retain their own gaseous halos. We analyze the evolution of $\approx90,000$ satellites of stellar mass $\sim10^{9-12.5} msun$ around 352 galaxy clusters of mass $\mvir\sim10^{14.3-15.4} msun$ at $z=0$ from the new TNG-Cluster suite of cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical galaxy cluster simulations. The number of massive satellites per host increases with host mass, and the mass--richness relation broadly agrees with observations. A halo of mass $\mvirhost\sim10^{14.5} (10^{15}) msun$ hosts $\sim100 (300)$ satellites today. Only a minority of satellites retain some gas, hot or cold, and this fraction increases with stellar mass. Lower-mass satellites $\sim10^{9-10} msun$ are more likely to retain part of their cold interstellar medium, consistent with ram pressure preferentially removing hot extended gas first. At higher stellar masses $\sim10^{10.5-12.5} msun$, the fraction of gas-rich satellites increases to unity, and nearly all satellites retain a portion of their hot, spatially extended circumgalactic medium (CGM), despite the ejective activity of their supermassive black holes. According to TNG-Cluster, the CGM of these gaseous satellites can be seen in soft X-ray emission (0.5-2.0 keV) that is $\gtrsim10$~times brighter than the local background. This X-ray surface brightness excess around satellites extends to $\approx30-100$ kpc, and is strongest for galaxies with higher stellar masses and larger host-centric distances. Approximately $10$~percent of the soft X-ray emission in cluster outskirts $\approx0.75-1.5\rvir$ originates from satellites. The CGM of member galaxies reflects the dynamics of cluster-satellite interactions and contributes to the observationally inferred properties of the intracluster medium.
