description: The use of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in clinical practice and observational epidemiological studies has grown considerably in the past 25 years. ABPM is a very effective technique for assessing biological, environmental, and drug effects on blood pressure. In order to enhance the effectiveness of ABPM for clinical and observational research studies via analytical and graphical results, developing alternative data analysis approaches are important. The linear mixed model for the analysis of longitudinal data is particularly well-suited for the estimation of, inference about, and interpretation of both population and subject-specific trajectories for ABPM data. Subject-specific trajectories are of great importance in ABPM studies, especially in clinical research, but little emphasis has been placed on this dimension of the problem in the statistical analyses of the data. We propose using a linear mixed model with orthonormal polynomials across time in both the fixed and random effects to analyze ABPM data. Orthonormal polynomials in the linear mixed model may be used to develop model-based, subject-specific 24-hour ABPM correlates of cardiovascular disease outcomes. We demonstrate the proposed analysis technique using data from the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) study, a multicenter, randomized, parallel arm feeding study that tested the effects of dietary patterns on blood pressure.

Evaluating the functional recovery performance of a 1970s non-ductile reinforced concrete shear wall building
Creators: name: Si, Jennifer
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: As seismic design in Canada continues to evolve, many buildings designed to previous building code editions are left to their own devices, creating a vulnerability in communities exposed to large earthquakes. This thesis will examine the preparedness of communities in the lower mainland of British Columbia in the event of a M9 megathrust earthquake. It originates from the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a seismic source off the west coast of Canada and the United States. The focus of this thesis will be on the seismic performance of tall, pre-1980s, reinforced concrete shear wall buildings, which represent a large proportion of Vancouver’s tall buildings. A nonlinear dynamic analysis of an archetype building fitting the mentioned criteria was carried out using shell elements in LS-Dyna. Furthermore, using the FEMA P-2018 rating system, a rapid screening tool that assigns a rating to indicate relative collapse risk for each building considered, a general picture of the risk these building pose to the community could be formed. In recognition that collapse safety is not enough to create a more resilient community, as part of this study, a recently developed framework called TREADS (Tool for Recovery Estimation and Downtime Simulation) is used to describe the performance of the building by following resilience-based performance measures. Results for the nonlinear assessment showed that the archetype building has a large shear capacity due to the large number of walls. However, it is very brittle, and fails abruptly at a low drift ratio. Nevertheless, the FEMA P-2018 showed that this case study building has a rating indicating a relatively low seismic risk. By contrast, the loss and downtime assessment of the building showed that performance would fall short of the target recovery state of shelter-in-place after a 475yr return period earthquake and the target downtime to functional recovery of 4 months. Since the analysis using FEMA P-2018 suggests that the archetype building would perform better relative to other similar buildings, detailed analyses are recommended for any buildings of this type.

description: Objective To summarise the evidence for non-pharmacological management of low back pain (LBP) in athletes, a common problem in sport that can negatively impact performance and contribute to early retirement. Data sources Five databases (EMBASE, Medline, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus) were searched from inception to September 2020. The main outcomes of interest were pain, disability and return to sport (RTS). Results Among 1629 references, 14 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) involving 541 athletes were included. The trials had biases across multiple domains including performance, attrition and reporting. Treatments included exercise, biomechanical modifications and manual therapy. There were no trials evaluating the efficacy of surgery or injections. Exercise was the most frequently investigated treatment; no RTS data were reported for any exercise intervention. There was a reduction in pain and disability reported after all treatments. Conclusions While several treatments for LBP in athletes improved pain and function, it was unclear what the most effective treatments were, and for whom. Exercise approaches generally reduced pain and improved function in athletes with LBP, but the effect on RTS is unknown. No conclusions regarding the value of manual therapy (massage, spinal manipulation) or biomechanical modifications alone could be drawn because of insufficient evidence. High-quality RCTs are urgently needed to determine the effect of commonly used interventions in treating LBP in athletes.

description: We consider a problem of prescribing the partial Ricci curvature on a locally conformally flat manifold $(M^n, g)$ endowed with the complementary orthogonal distributions $D_1$ and $D_2$. We provide conditions for symmetric $(0,2)$-tensors $T$ of a simple form (defined on $M$) to admit metrics $\tilde g$, conformal to $g$, that solve the partial Ricci equations. The solutions are given explicitly. Using above solutions, we also give examples to the problem of prescribing the mixed scalar curvature related to $D_i$. In aim to find "optimally placed" distributions, we calculate the variations of the total mixed scalar curvature (where again the partial Ricci curvature plays a key role), and give examples concerning minimization of a total energy and bending of a distribution.

Zinc deficiency induces apoptosis via mitochondrial p53- and caspase-dependent pathways in human neuronal precursor cells

Subjects: subject: Zinc

description: Previous studies have shown that zinc deficiency leads to apoptosis of
 neuronal precursor cells in vivo and in vitro. In addition to the role of
 p53 as a nuclear transcription factor in zinc deficient cultured human
 neuronal precursors (NT-2), we have now identified the translocation of
 phosphorylated p53 to the mitochondria and p53-dependent increases in the
 pro-apoptotic mitochondrial protein BAX leading to a loss of mitochondrial
 membrane potential as demonstrated by a 25% decrease in JC-1 red:green
 fluorescence ratio. Disruption of mitochondrial membrane integrity was
 accompanied by efflux of the apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) from the
 mitochondria and translocation to the nucleus with a significant increase
 in reactive oxygen species (ROS) after 24 h of zinc deficiency.
 Measurement of caspase cleavage, mRNA, and treatment with caspase
 inhibitors revealed the involvement of caspases 2, 3, 6, and 7 in zinc
 deficiency-mediated apoptosis. Down-stream targets of caspase activation,
 including the nuclear structure protein lamin and polyADP ribose
 polymerase (PARP), which participates in DNA repair, were also cleaved.
 Transfection with a dominant-negative p53 construct and use of the p53
 inhibitor, pifithrin␮, established that these alterations were largely
 dependent on p53. Together these data identify a cascade of events
 involving mitochondrial p53 as well as p53-dependent caspase-mediated
 mechanisms leading to apoptosis during zinc deficiency.

description: Let f be a germ of holomorphic diffeomorphism with an irra- tionally indifferent fixed point at the origin in C (i.e. f(0) = 0, f'(0) = e 2pi i alpha, alpha in R - Q). Perez-Marco showed the existence of a unique family of nontrivial invariant full continua containing the fixed point called Siegel compacta. When f is non-linearizable (i.e. not holomorphically conjugate to the rigid rotation R_{alpha}(z) = e 2pi i z) the invariant compacts obtained are called hedgehogs. Perez-Marco developed techniques for the construction of examples of non-linearizable germs; these were used by the author to construct hedge- hogs of Hausdorff dimension one, and adapted by Cheritat to construct Siegel disks with pseudo-circle boundaries. We use these techniques to construct hedgehogs of positive area and hedgehogs with inaccessible fixed points.

subject: Creative writing (incl. scriptwriting)

description: Though the Bible can be a difficult book to read and process, the creative arts may provide more relevant representations for contemporary audiences through original, imaginative formats. Fantasy is a popular, contemporary genre, so one approach to
employing the creative arts is to reimagine selected, significant events and themes of the Bible as a fictional, Christian fantasy allegory. Using practice-based research, the arenas of allegory, biblical narrative structures, fantasy styles including the
representation of female heroes, and Christian fantasy criteria were investigated. Relevant research outcomes were then synthesized and processed with imagination to create the Christian fantasy allegory, Dark Spark. Innovative, original, symbolic
representations reimagine the significant biblical narrative events of creation, separation, redemption and restoration occurring in a fictional, fantasy world. The accompanying exegesis explains the developmental process and includes a critical
analysis of story components using a repertoire of narrative elements. Dark Spark is set in a sepia world of almost-dark created by Aurion, the Devourer of Light. The inhabitants wait for the prophesied warrior-saviour, a lightbearer who will overcome
the darkness and restore true light. The inclusion of multiple, symbolic, biblical events in one story and innovative, female hero depictions of biblical characters has resulted in an original, Christian fantasy allegory. Dark Spark demonstrates that
allegory remains an effective writer’s tool able to present significant events and themes of the biblical narrative reimagined as a Christian fantasy.

description: The detection of fast moving or new objects on sky surveys with small cameras depend largely on the creation of a valid WCS solution for each image. A short time for detecting these objects on images is crucial for subsequent time critical actions to be taken. For comparing found sources with online catalogs a valid WCS is neeeded. The more time spent for getting an initial or iterative wcs solution the less time for other tasks is left over. Experiences with solvefield applied to single field images in the past showed different parameter sets as an optimum for each field. Getting th optimum parameters for solving each field of a survey cant’t be done manually if n(ear) r(eal) t(ime) processing should be achieved. An automated process needs a near optimum parameter set to be used for all fields of the survey to minimize overall solving time for all images but not only for some.

         This work focusses on the possibility of getting duration minimized parameter sets for an ( initial ) astrometric solving of a sky survey.

         Several sets are checked on real images and are evaluated for being possible candidates for an automated detection process. The criteria choosen to be satiesfied is that the duration of getting a WCS solution should no longer last than one third of an exposure time of one image. The other two thirds should be sufficient for improving the WCS, retrieving the online/offline catalog data, doing the comparison and some kind of alerting. The fullfillment of this criteria is considered to be valid for a n(ear) r(eal) t(ime) creation of a WCS solution.

         In the first part about 65 randomly choosen digital images of different sky areas are solved with 36 parameter sets. Characteristics of the solutions like duration and found sources are compared. Some hints for getting a good parameter set is given.

         The second part takes a detailed look on the parametrisation of several solvefield runs. Possible enhancements are discussed and an outlook for further investigations is given.

description: Since 2015, the Astronomical Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences is operating a modern EU-funded reflecting telescope with a 130 cm primary mirror, located in the Skalnaté Pleso Observatory in the Tatra Mountains at an altitude of 1783 m. The systematic observation of comets and binary systems on the northern hemisphere occurs with this instrument. In 2018, the funding agency BAYHOST (Bavarian Academic Center for Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe) granted the proposed project SLOBATCO (an abbreviation for Slovak-Bavarian Telescope Collaboration) to Aschaffenburg University of Applied Sciences. The cooperation project pursues the development of astronomical NIR filters, which are designed for the atmospheric transmission windows in the infrared spectral range. In order to avoid a complex cryogenic filter wheel for the NIR CCD camera operated at low temperatures, the observations should be realized through a segmented filter using precise shifts of the image field. The bi-national cooperation project and the specification of the infrared filter combination are presented in this poster contribution.

description: An unexpected breakdown in the existing theory of quantum serial turbo coding is that a quantum convolutional encoder cannot simultaneously be recursive and non-catastrophic. These properties are essential for quantum turbo code families to have a minimum distance growing with blocklength and for their iterative decoding algorithm to converge, respectively. Here, we show that the entanglement-assisted paradigm simplifies the theory of quantum turbo codes, in the sense that an entanglement-assisted quantum (EAQ) convolutional encoder can possess both of the aforementioned desirable properties. We give several examples of EAQ convolutional encoders that are both recursive and non-catastrophic and detail their relevant parameters. We then modify the quantum turbo decoding algorithm of Poulin et al., in order to have the constituent decoders pass along only "extrinsic information" to each other rather than a posteriori probabilities as in the decoder of Poulin et al., and this leads to a significant improvement in the performance of unassisted quantum turbo codes. Other simulation results indicate that entanglement-assisted turbo codes can operate reliably in a noise regime 4.73 dB beyond that of standard quantum turbo codes, when used on a memoryless depolarizing channel. Furthermore, several of our quantum turbo codes are within 1 dB or less of their hashing limits, so that the performance of quantum turbo codes is now on par with that of classical turbo codes. Finally, we prove that entanglement is the resource that enables a convolutional encoder to be both non-catastrophic and recursive because an encoder acting on only information qubits, classical bits, gauge qubits, and ancilla qubits cannot simultaneously satisfy them.

Hybrid shifted frequency analysis-electromagnetic transients multirate simulation of power systems
Creators: name: Tarazona Gomez, Javier Orlando
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Traditional power systems have high inertia, and disturbances can be represented with relatively large discretization steps. However, power electronic interfaced generation requires time steps, at least two orders of magnitude smaller to represent the switching operations. In addition, the increased penetration of these devices reduces the total inertia of the system, and a single-time step size transient stability (TS) solution that considers the details of the power electronic devices would take two orders of magnitude longer (that is, electromagnetic transients (EMT) simulators time step sizes). Hybrid TS-EMT simulators aim at using large time steps for the traditional (slow) part of the system and small time steps for the power electronic devices. However, in the current state-of-the-art, the proposed hybrid solutions are limited in a number of ways. Most of them introduce a one TS time step interfacing delay between solutions, which reduces accuracy and can create numerical oscillations. Other approaches use the travelling time of transmission lines to tear the system and interface the solutions, but this limits the flexibility of connecting power electronic components anywhere in the system. The hybrid solution presented in this work combines a Shifted Frequency Analysis (SFA) solution that is more accurate than traditional phasor solutions to follow transient stability trajectories in lower inertia systems with the traditional EMT solution for the fast power electronic converters. In order to interface the SFA and EMT solutions, a new hybrid protocol has been developed that overcomes the disadvantages of the current hybrid solutions. The two subsystems are joined using the Multi-Area Thévenin Equivalent (MATE) solution framework, and introducing the novel concept of employing a second parallel EMT simulation. Illustrative examples demonstrate the validity and accuracy of the SFA-EMT multirate protocol. The new protocol achieves significant computational savings when compared with an all-EMT solution. A simulator operating with the proposed protocol will allow improved accuracy when conducting power system transient studies with high penetration of renewable generation without considerably increasing the computational time.

description: We compare three different characterizations of the globalness of bipartite unitary operations, namely, delocalization power, entanglement cost, and entangling power, to investigate global properties of unitary operations. We show that the globalness of the same unitary operation depends on whether input states are given by unknown states representing pieces of quantum information, or a set of known states for the characterization. We extend our analysis on the delocalization power in two ways. First, we show that the delocalization power differs whether the global operation is applied on one piece or two pieces of quantum information. Second, by introducing a new task called LOCC one-piece relocation, we prove that the controlled-unitary operations do not have the delocalization power strong enough to relocate one of two pieces of quantum information by adding LOCC.

description: [Abdriged] The origin of the diffuse hard X-ray (2 - 10 keV) emission from starburst galaxies is a long-standing problem. We suggest that synchrotron emission of 10 - 100 TeV electrons and positrons (e+/-) can contribute to this emission, because starbursts have strong magnetic fields. We consider three sources of e+/- at these energies: (1) primary electrons directly accelerated by supernova remnants; (2) pionic secondary e+/- created by inelastic collisions between CR protons and gas nuclei in the dense ISMs of starbursts; (3) pair e+/- produced between the interactions between 10 - 100 TeV gamma-rays and the intense far-infrared (FIR) radiation fields of starbursts. We create one-zone steady-state models of the CR population in the Galactic Center (R <= 112 pc), NGC 253, M82, and Arp 220's nuclei, assuming a power law injection spectrum for electrons and protons. We compare these models to extant radio and GeV and TeV gamma-ray data for these starbursts, and calculate the diffuse synchrotron X-ray and Inverse Compton (IC) luminosities of these starbursts. If the primary electron spectrum extends to ~PeV energies and has a proton/electron injection ratio similar to the Galactic value, we find that synchrotron contributes 2 - 20% of their unresolved, diffuse hard X-ray emission. Inverse Compton emission is likewise a minority of the unresolved X-ray emission in these starbursts, from 0.1% in the Galactic Center to 10% in Arp 220's nuclei. We also model generic starbursts, including submillimeter galaxies, in the context of the FIR--X-ray relation, finding that up to 2% in the densest starbursts with our fiducial assumptions. Neutrino and TeV gamma-ray data can further constrain the synchrotron X-ray emission of starbursts. Our models do not constrain hard synchrotron X-ray emission from any additional hard components of primary e+/- from sources like pulsars in starbursts.

description: Financial market dynamics is rigorously studied via the exact generalized Langevin equation. Assuming market Brownian self-similarity, the market return rate memory and autocorrelation functions are derived, which exhibit an oscillatory-decaying behavior with a long-time tail, similar to empirical observations. Individual stocks are also described via the generalized Langevin equation. They are classified by their relation to the market memory as heavy, neutral and light stocks, possessing different kinds of autocorrelation functions.

Approximate joint measurement of qubit observables through an Arthur-Kelly type model
Creators: name: Pal, Rajarshi

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We consider joint measurement of two and three unsharp qubit observables through an Arthur-Kelly type joint measurement model for qubits. We investigate the effect of initial state of the detectors on the unsharpness of the measurement as well as the post-measurement state of the system. Particular emphasis is given on a physical understanding of the POVM to PVM transition in the model and entanglement between system and detectors.Two approaches for characterizing the unsharpness of the measurement and the resulting measurement uncertainty relations are considered.The corresponding measures of unsharpness are connected for the case where both the measurements are equally unsharp. The connection between the POVM elements and symmetries of the underlying Hamiltonian of the measurement interaction is made explicit and used to perform joint measurement in arbitrary directions. Finally in the case of three observables we derive a necessary condition for the approximate joint measurement and use it show the relative freedom available when the observables are non-orthogonal.

description: Texture six zero Fritzsch like as well as non Fritzsch like hermitian lepton mass matrices (144 combinations in all) have been investigated for both Majorana and Dirac neutrinos for their compatibility with the current neutrino oscillation data, keeping in mind the hierarchy of neutrino masses. All the combinations considered here for Majorana neutrino masses are ruled out by the existing data in the case of inverted hierarchy and degenerate scenario. For Majorana neutrinos with normal hierarchy, only 16 combinations can accommodate the experimental data. Assuming neutrinos to be Dirac particles, normal hierarchy, inverted hierarchy as well as degenerate neutrinos are ruled out for all combinations of texture 6 zero hermitian mass matrices.

Moderate deviations for stabilizing functionals in geometric probability

description: The purpose of the present paper is to establish explicit bounds on moderate deviation probabilities for a rather general class of geometric functionals enjoying the stabilization property, under Poisson input and the assumption of a certain control over the growth of the moments of the functional and its radius of stabilization. Our proof techniques rely on cumulant expansions and cluster measures and yield completely explicit bounds on deviation probabilities. In addition, we establish a new criterion for the limiting variance to be non-degenerate. Moreover, our main result provides a new central limit theorem, which, though stated under strong moment assumptions, does not require bounded support of the intensity of the Poisson input. We apply our results to three groups of examples: random packing models, geometric functionals based on Euclidean nearest neighbors and the sphere of influence graphs.

Physical properties of leached and pelletized agricultural and woody biomass residues
Creators: name: Hu, Zhaohong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: In Canada, the agricultural sector produces 50 million dry tonnes of residues every year. These residues have a large potential for bioenergy application to replace fossil fuels. However, the disadvantages of using agricultural residues are its high ash content and low bulk density. Pelletization increases the bulk density of agricultural biomass and allows the agri pellets to be transported economically. Two types of methods were used for the preprocess of the feedstock, which were water leaching and pressing. Washing was applied with a water-to-biomass weight ratio of 25:1. The pressing process was done using 2 MPa pressure and 30 s residence time. The results show that washing and pressing (W&P) process led to a decrease in the angle of repose. After washing and pressing, the wt% of finer fraction of the particles (< 0.3 mm) of all biomass samples decreased while the wt% of the coarser fraction increased. W&P process also decreased the bulk density of dry materials. It can be concluded that W&P is better than washing only for non-woody samples since it led to higher ash removal efficiency and lower energy consumption (< 30 kJ/kg) than woody samples. However, washing without pressing (W) is sufficient for woody samples since it provided similar ash removal efficiency as W&P and lower extrusion and total energy consumptions during pelletization (~90 kJ/kg) than non-woody samples.
