description: The transient thermocapillary migration of drops with nontrivial deformation is studied. The finite difference method is employed to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the energy equation; the front-tracking method is adopted to track the moving deformable drop interface. In the hot region, deformations of drops increase with the decrease of interfacial tensions. In order to indicate the temperature impact on the interfacial tension, a local capillary number ($Ca_l$) is introduced. It is found that, when the drop density is smaller/larger than that of the bulk fluid, the drop velocity decreases/increases with the increase of the drop deformation.

Developing an automated analysis of fish migration video using computer vision algorithms
Creators: name: Engdahl, Julia
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Dams, fishways, and other hydropower structures have been utilized for centuries and have largely been unevaluated regarding their effects on the surrounding fish populations. Conventional methods (seining and angling) used for such evaluation are often costly and time consuming. The aim of this project is to decrease analysis time by automating fish detection with the use of video monitoring and evaluating two computer vision algorithms: background subtraction and machine learning algorithm You Only Look Once (YOLO). We evaluated these algorithms on video data collected from the Island Farm Weir on the Raritan River in New Jersey. Our results indicate that background subtraction models need to be adaptive with respect to time due to the dynamic aquatic environment, and YOLO needs to be trained and tested on the user’s specific case study dataset for optimal results.

description: We review the literature on what classical physics has to say about the Meissner effect and the London equations. We first discuss the relevance of the Bohr-van Leeuwen theorem for the perfect diamagnetism of superconductors. The conclusion is that the theorem is based on assumptions that are not valid. We also point out results in the literature which prove that the magnetic flux expulsion from a sample cooled to superconductivity can be simply understood as an approach to the magnetostatic energy minimum. These results have been published several times but still many textbooks on magnetism claim that there is no classical diamagnetism, and virtually all books on superconductivity repeat Meissner's 1933 statement that flux expulsion has no classical explanation.

“Courts Have Twisted Themselves into Knots”: U.S. Copyright Protection for Applied Art

subject: Decorative arts--Law and legislation

description: In copyright law, the marriage of beauty and utility often proves fraught. Domestic and international lawmakers have struggled to determine whether, and to what extent, copyright should cover works that are both artistic and functional. The U.S. Copyright Act protects a work of applied art “only if, and only to the extent that, its design incorporates pictorial, graphic, or sculptural features that can be identified separately from, and are capable of existing independently of, the utilitarian aspects of the article.” While the policy goal to separate the aesthetic from the functional is clear, courts’ application of the statutory “separability” standard has become so complex and incoherent that the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal from a case in which the appellate court, echoing sister Circuits, expressed the lament quoted in the title of this Article. The Article will review the genesis and application of the statutory standard, with illustrations from several of the cases, and will offer two conclusions and a legislative proposal.

First, the controversy before the Court does not concern the “design of a useful article,” and therefore does not require the Court to resolve the meaning of “separability.” The Varsity Brands case nonetheless reveals the importance of ascertaining whether the contested design is in fact the design of a “useful article.” A pre-existing pictorial, graphic or sculptural work applied to a useful article is not itself a useful article, and courts need not “twist themselves into knots” endeavoring to parse the meaning of the statutory separability standard. Were the Supreme Court to decline to reach separability on the ground that resolution of the Varsity Brands dispute does not in fact require it, some might be disappointed that the Court would fail to tidy the disarray in the lower courts over separability. But the predicate issue—what is the design of a “useful article”—also warrants more attention than lower courts have given it. Thus, were the Court to leave separability to a case that in fact poses that issue, the Court would still contribute to clarifying this area of copyright law.

Second, the statutory requirements of separate identifiability and independent existence apply to “features” of the design, not to the entire shape of a useful article; attempts (including those ventured by this Article) to extend separability analysis to the useful article’s form as a whole prove unworkable. Accordingly, rather than continuing to struggle with an intractable statutory copyrightability standard, this Article proposes the enlargement of Title 17’s sui generis design protection regime to cover original designs of most useful articles.

description: The Bardeen model describes a regular space-time, i.e. a singularity-free black hole space-time. In this paper, by analyzing the behavior of the effective potential for the particles and photons, we investigate the time-like and null geodesic structures in the space-time of Bardeen model. At the same time, all kinds of orbits, which are allowed according to the energy level corresponding to the effective potentials, are numerically simulated in detail. We find many-world bound orbits, two-world escape orbits and escape orbits in this spacetime. We also find that bound orbits precession directions are opposite and their precession velocities are different, the inner bound orbits shift along counter-clockwise with high velocity while the exterior bound orbits shift along clockwise with low velocity.

Acclimatisation, de-acclimatisation and re-acclimatisation to hypoxia
Creators: name: MacNutt, Meaghan J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: World-wide, increasing numbers of individuals repeatedly alternate between low and high altitude for work and play. There is a general impression that acquired acclimatisation status persists for some time following return to sea level and that subsequent altitude tolerance is improved by previous hypoxic experience. However, it is unknown whether previous exposure to high altitude fundamentally alters the process of hypoxic re-acclimatisation (RA). My Doctoral research employed a number of approaches to investigate potential differences between the processes of initial acclimatisation (IA) and RA. The time course and mechanisms of hypoxic de-acclimatisation (DA) were explored to determine the time domains across which the retention of previous acclimatisation status might facilitate RA. Cross-sectional and longitudinal field studies were conducted to compare functional outcomes, cardiorespiratory function in rest and exercise and haematological responses throughout IA and RA in high-altitude trekkers. Results indicated that clinical outcomes and trekking performance were improved in RA but with limited physiological evidence of underlying improvements in hypoxic compensation. The haematological response to hypoxia was slightly greater in RA than IA, prompting further investigation of haematological RA in an animal model. Three paradigms of RA were used to examine the effect of IA and DA duration on the process of haematological RA in mice exposed to normobaric hypoxia. Despite altered erythropoietic control in RA treatments, the resulting haematological responses were generally consistent between IA and RA with no evidence of improved responses in RA. In fact, haematological acclimation was impaired in one RA treatment, possibly due to reduced availability of nutrients required for haemoglobin synthesis following an extended period of IA and upregulated erythropoiesis. Given the lack of physiological explanation for improved functional outcomes in RA, non-physiological mechanisms were pursued. Interviews with altitude-experienced individuals identified a perception that prior altitude experience leads to reduced altitude-induced anxiety and improved psychological tolerance of sensations associated with altitude exposure. Although physiological aspects of hypoxic re-acclimatisation merit further investigation, it is possible that improved psychological tolerance of high altitude contributes to the improved functional outcomes in RA that are reported here and elsewhere.

IDENTIFYING AND CHARACTERIZING THE IMPACT OF MODIFIER GENES IN A MODEL OF OBESITY IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
Creators: name: Nicol, Audrey Anne
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Gene expression (incl. microarray and other genome-wide approaches)

description: Obesity is a growing concern as 42.3% of people in the U.S were considered obese in the years 2017- 2018. Little is known about the genetic components that contribute to weight gain. In humans, the hormone glucagon is a major contributor to the body’s energy demand as it helps break down lipids. Therefore, learning more about this pathway could enable a range of therapeutics. In fact, studies have shown that glucagon treatments have helped patients with both weight loss and appetite suppression. In this project, we analyzed candidate genes that modify the glucagon pathway in Drosophila melanogaster. We reduced the expression of the fly version of the glucagon receptor (AKHR) in our model. This induces fat retention in the L3 larvae, which mimics obesity in humans. We then crossed our model to the DGRP and looked for natural variation in fat content using a density assay. The density assay examines the relative fat levels of the larvae by slowly increasing the amount of sucrose in water. This enables us to observe whether we have lean larvae which float later or fat larvae which float early on. We used the variation in floating concentration to identify candidate modifier genes through GWA or genome-wide association study. We crossed our AKHR RNAi model to RNAi for various candidate modifier genes that may enhance or suppress fat retention. We screened these candidates initially with the same density assay used in the original study. This resulted in four candidate genes that significantly impacted the density of the larvae: THADA, AmyD, GluRIIC, and CG9826. We further characterized these candidates using biochemical assays to analyze stored metabolites such as triglycerides, glucose, glycogen, and protein. These have been further analyzed under control, high sugar, and high fat conditions to see if the larvae are resistant to environmental changes. CG9826 showed significant increase in stored fats across all environments. THADA RNAi showed an increase in fat in the high fat environment. Overexpression of THADA showed a decrease in fat storage in the high fat environment. Our goal is to advance our understanding of the glucagon signaling pathway, obesity, and lipid metabolism. We are also hopeful to provide candidate genes that can be regarded as future therapeutic targets.
A Comprehensive Analysis of Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Data: II. $E_{\rm p}$-Evolution Patterns and Implications for the Observed Spectrum-Luminosity Relations

description: We present a time-resolved spectral analysis of 51 long and 11 short bright GRBs observed with the {\em Femri}/GBM, paying special attention to $E_{\rm p}$ evolution within a same burst. Among 8 single-pulse long GRBs, 5 show hard-to-soft evolution, while 3 show intensity-tracking. The multi-pulse long GRBs have more complicated patterns. Among the GRBs whose time-resolved spectrum is available for the first pulse, almost half (15/32 GRBs) show clear hard-to-soft evolution, and the other half (17/32 GRBs) show clear intensity-tracking. Later pulses typically show the tracking behavior, although a hard-to-soft evolution pattern was identified in the 2nd pulse of 2 GRBs whose pulses are well separated. Statistically, the hard-to-soft evolution pulses tend to be more asymmetric than the intensity-tracking ones, with a steeper rising wing than the falling wing. Short GRBs have $E_{\rm p}$ tracking intensity exclusively with the 16ms time resolution analysis. We performed a simulation analysis, and suggest that at least for some bursts, the late intensity-tracking pulses could be a consequence of overlapping hard-to-soft pulses. However, the fact that the intensity-tracking pattern exists in the first pulse of multi-pulse long GRBs and some single-pulse GRBs suggest that intensity tracking is an independent component, which may operate in some late pulses as well. For the GRBs with measured redshifts, we present a time-resolved $E_{\rm p}-L_{γ, \rm iso}$ correlation analysis and show that the scatter of the correlation is comparable to that of the global Amati/Yonetoku relation. We discuss the predictions of various radiation models regarding $E_{\rm p}$ evolution, as well as the possibility of a precession jet in GRBs. It seems that the data pose great challenge to all these models, and hold the key to unveil the physics of GRB prompt emission.

The stellar initial mass function in red-sequence galaxies: 1-micron spectroscopy of Coma Cluster galaxies with Subaru/FMOS

description: To investigate possible variations in the stellar initial mass function (IMF) in red-sequence galaxies, we have obtained infrared spectroscopy with Subaru/FMOS for a sample of 92 red-sequence galaxies in the Coma cluster. Velocity dispersions, ages and element abundances for these galaxies have been previously determined from optical data. By stacking the FMOS spectra in the rest frame, removing sky-subtraction residuals and other artefacts fixed in the observed frame, we derive composite spectra in the 9600-10500 Angstrom range for galaxies grouped according to their velocity dispersion or Mg/Fe ratio. We measure the Wing-Ford band of FeH and a new index centred on a CaI line at 10345 Angstrom; these features are strong in cool dwarf stars, and hence reflect the form of the IMF at low mass (<0.5M_sun) The CaI line, unlike the Wing-Ford band and other `classical' IMF indicators (NaI doublet, CaII triplet), is unaffected by the abundance of sodium. We compare the measured indices against predictions from spectral synthesis models matched to the element abundances estimated from the optical data. Binning galaxies by velocity dispersion, we find that both the Wing-Ford and CaI index measurements are best reproduced by models with the Salpeter IMF. There is no clear evidence for an increase in dwarf-star content with velocity dispersion. Binning the observed galaxies instead by Mg/Fe ratio, the behaviour of both indices implies a trend of IMF from Chabrier-like, at abundance ratios close to solar, to Salpeter or heavier for highly alpha-enhanced populations. At face value, this suggests that the IMF depends on the mode of star formation, with intense rapid star-bursts generating a larger population of low-mass stars.

description: In the ever-growing electronics industry, products are constantly being reimagined and tailored around novel materials and processing techniques. Since the discovery of conducting polymers, interest in organic electronics have shifted, as is evident by the rise in market presence of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) which was long the focus of research in academic and industry labs. Lightweight, mechanically flexible, easy to process and low manufacturing costs are a few desirable qualities that conducting polymers have over its inorganic counterparts.Oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) polymerization is a new technique that merges CVD thin film processing with the versatility of organic chemistry. This vapor phase polymerization technique offers a facile, solvent-free and low temperature route to simultaneously tune chemistry, morphology and functionality, allowing for creative ways to engineer multiscale (thicknesses from nano to micro) and multifunctional (semiconducting, conducting) polymer films on a variety of substrates including paper, plastic, and biological tissue.This thesis will study conducting polymers deposited via oCVD from thin film process development, thermal characterization, and various applications in which conducting polymers play a unique role. The deposition parameters for the conducting polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and the semi conducting polymer, polythiophene (PT) are optimized to create uniform and conformal thin films. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity of oCVD PEDOT is reported for the first time and a relationship to electrical conductivity is determined. This thesis also explores unique applications for these conducting polymers. First, a conducting polymer-based biosensor was utilized for distinguishing between specific and non-specific binding events. Processing the output data using machine learning resulted in a 75 % accurate prediction of the targeted biomolecule, Biotin. Second, surface modification of a lithium ion battery (LiMn2O4) electrode with oCVD PEDOT has yielded an 83% increase in rate capacity and a 40 % increase in cycling life. Third, coatings of oCVD PEDOT on 3D graphene structures resulted in the selective and sensitive detection of dopamine among other electroactive species.

description: In July 2015, Michael Johnson, a twenty-three-year-old Black queer college student in Missouri, was sentenced to slightly over thirty years in prison on one count of reckless transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) to another person and on four counts of reckless attempted transmission of HIV. Johnson’s conviction and exorbitant carceral sentence are not unique, however. State penal laws criminalizing the transmission of HIV have existed for well over twenty-five years and have remained nearly impervious to legal challenge throughout that time. This Article queries the continued vitality of HIV-criminalization laws and argues that their survival reflects their investment in appeals to the affective—the sensations of bodily impingement and intrusion that the terrifying spectacle of HIV is meant to conjure. The injection of the affective into the jurisprudential regime of HIV criminalization is shown to be at the core of Michael Johnson’s prosecution and conviction, animating Johnson’s unwitting transformation into HIV itself. Reflecting on this disturbing genealogy, the discussion concludes with both legal and critical prescriptions to combat the persistence of HIV stigma.

description: Commercial sodium bicarbonate toothpaste is a relatively new product on the market and limited research has tested its effects on composite material. The purpose of this investigation was to determine and compare, invitro, the effects of a commercially available sodium bicarbonate toothpaste versus a leading brand of fluoridated toothpaste on composite restorative material simulated in daily toothbrushing for a six month time period. Deionized water was used as the control treatment. A three-group, post-test only design was used to test the abrasive effects of the paste on 48 filled composite resin shade guide teeth. The digital microprocessor scanning device, a measurement component of the scanning electron microscope, was employed to examine surface changes in the composite material. A root surface smoothness test, was utilized by a calibrated examiner to categorize the scanning electron microscope photomicrographs. Data on the amount of abrasion in micron measurements was analyzed using analysis of variance; Duncan's multiple range test was employed to determine significant differences. An alpha level of 0.05 was selected for testing of hypotheses. Results indicated that specimens brushed with water exhibited some surface roughness as compared to the dentifrices; however, there were no statistically significant differences between the dentifrices. It was concluded that sodium bicarbonate dentifrice and fluoridated dentifrice were no more abrasive than water on composite material and created a smoother surface than water with minimal nicking and marking.

description: This Note looks closely at the issues facing home care workers and the persons with disabilities and older persons who consume that care. It argues that without seriously taking into account the unique intersectional needs of both care providers—predominately low-income women of color—and care consumers—generally persons who have disabilities, are elderly, or both—advocates will fail to create empowering care partnerships. The Note discusses the ways in which a purely feminist or disability rights lens fails to take into account the complex dynamics of the home care relationship, and suggests that scholars who have integrated the needs of care workers and care consumers have provided what should be considered foundational theories for home care empowerment activism. It implores advocates to continue to look to theorists that holistically incorporate feminist scholarship and disability rights scholarship in order to best understand the complex, multi-dimensional issues facing participants to relationships of care. The Note also examines advocates and organizations already doing this kind of integrated work and argues that they should be promoted and emulated, to the extent that their efforts have been successful. Finally, the Note lays out several possible policy solutions that would serve the needs of home care workers and care consumers, empowering and elevating all care participants, and contends that these should be prioritized in advocacy efforts going forward.

description: One of the most politically charged as well as legally technical problems occupying the field of international women’s rights revolves around the reservations made to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW).1 An opposition among states became heated as several Muslim-majority states entered reservations to CEDAW invoking norms of Islamic Law, or Shari’a (sometimes referred to as either “Islamic reservations” or “Shari’a based reservations”). Several European states in turn lodged formal objections to these reservations. The row between European states and Muslim-majority states over the reservations has formed the basis for the technicalization of conflicting views on women’s rights, in the depoliticizing sense of turning a political conflict into a seemingly technical legal one.

We obtain a concrete description of the centralizer of an $I$-matrix $\hat B$ in $M_2(R/I)$ as the sum of two subrings $\mathcal S_1$ and $\mathcal S_2$ of $M_2(R/I)$, where $\mathcal S_1$ is the image (under the natural epimorphism from $M_2(R)$ to $M_2(R/I)$) of the centralizer in $M_2(R)$ of a pre-image of $\hat B$, and where the entries in $\mathcal S_2$ are intersections of certain annihilators of elements arising from the entries of $\hat B$. It turns out that if $R$ is a PID, then every matrix in $M_2(R/I)$ is an $I$-matrix. However, this is not the case if $R$ is a UFD in general. Moreover, for every factor ring $R/I$ with zero divisors and every $n\ge 3$ there is a matrix for which the mentioned concrete description is not valid.
Boreal Avian Modelling Project Data Policies and Request Procedures
Creators: name: Boreal Avian Modelling Project
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: This document outlines policies of the Boreal Avian Modelling Project (hereafter BAM) regarding fair, consistent, and transparent use and distribution of data and data products.

BAM was established in 2004 to address critical knowledge gaps challenging the management and conservation of boreal birds in Canada. BAM’s analyses draw on a powerful database created by collating and harmonizing data from individual research and monitoring efforts conducted in the Canadian and US boreal & hemi-boreal forest.

The policies presented here encompass data contributed to BAM as well as data products produced and shared as results of BAM analyses. These policies also cover procedures for submitting and approving requests for data and data products, for determining authorship of publications that use Project-related data and data products, and for appropriately acknowledging BAM products in projects with collaborators. This document will be updated from time to time reflecting relevant changes in project governance and activities.

description: For almost 20 years, the digital repository GAMS (Geisteswissenschaftliches Asset Management System) has been providing long-term preservation of Humanities’ resources offering both a technical solution and a way of achieving sustainability in the handling of research data. Such domain-specific digital repositories rely on specialised design principles and a strategic orientation to balance the need for long-term sustainability and the use of advanced technologies. The repository solely relies on open source software due to its commitment to open access and open science. Its design principles intend to foster compliance with international best practices like the COAR Community Framework for Good Practices in Repositories (COAR 2020) and the certification guidelines of the CoreTrustSeal, and following the FAIR principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability. Long-term preservation entails migration to new software versions and reflecting advancements in technology as well as responding to security issues; increase in projects and services require a more elaborate and stable system architecture. This submission describes the conceptual framework and architecture of a large digital repository infrastructure that specialises in the preservation, management and presentation of research data in the Humanities, as well as the maintenance and migration of this exemplary research data ecosystem.

A system for intraoperative transrectal ultrasound imaging in robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy
Creators: name: Adebar, Troy Kiefert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: This thesis describes a system for intraoperative transrectal ultrasound imaging in robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, and related image registration work. First, a novel method for registering three-dimensional ultrasound data to an external coordinate frame is presented. The method uses a registration tool pressed against an air-tissue boundary to provide common target points in the the ultrasound frame and the external frame. This method has two applications in our system: registering the ultrasound data captured by the system to a laparoscopic stereo camera to allow augmented-reality style overlays in laparoscopic or robotic surgery, and registering the system to the da Vinci Surgical System so the ultrasound imaging arrays can automatically track the da Vinci tools during surgery. In an initial feasibility study, the method was used to register a mechanical three-dimensional ultrasound transducer to high-disparity stereo cameras through a tissue phantom. Average registration error was found to be 1.69 ± 0.60 mm. Accuracy of localizing ultrasound fiducials pressed against an air-tissue boundary was found to range from 0.54 mm to 1.04 mm. In a second study, the method was used to register three-dimensional transrectal ultrasound data to a da Vinci stereo endoscope. In this study, fiducials imaged at multiple registration tool positions were incorporated into a single registration. Registration error imaging through a tissue phantom ranged from 3.85 ± 1.76 mm using one registration tool position to 1.82 ± 1.03 mm using four positions. Registration error imaging through an ex-vivo porcine liver tissue sample ranged from 2.36 ± 1.01 mm using one registration tool position to 1.51 ± 0.70 mm using four positions.

“We Just Looked At Them As Ordinary People Like We Were:” The Legal Gaze and Women’s Bodies

description: This Article analyzes the struggles of two female musicians who became caught up in the criminal justice system because they revealed their bodies. Using archival research and personal interviews, I tell the story of punk rocker Wendy O. Williams’ 1981-1984 obscenity and police brutality court battles. I also relay the life of Lorien Bourne, a disabled and lesbian rock-n-roller charged with disorderly conduct in Bowling Green, Ohio, in 2006. I examine how legal actors, including courts and jurors, viewed Williams and Bourne using classist, ableist, sexist, and homophobic optics. In so doing, I extend my previous work on legal “gazes,” or what I have called the legal practice of “peering.” I end the Article by looking to the women’s art and lives as correctives to oppressive manners of legal seeing.
