description: Despite the excessive developments of architectural parametric platforms, parametric design is often interpreted as an architectural style rather than a computational method. Also, the problem is still a lack of knowledge and skill about the technical application of parametric design in architectural modelling. Students often dive into utilizing complex digital modelling without having a competent pedagogical context to learn algorithmic thinking and the corresponding logic behind digital and parametric modelling. The insufficient skills and superficial knowledge often result in utilizing the modelling software through trial and error, not taking full advantage of what it has to offer. Geometric transformations as the fundamental functions of parametric modelling is explored in this study to anchor learning essential components in parametric modelling. Students need to understand the differences between variables, parameters, functions and their relations. Fologram, an Augmented Reality tool, is utilized in this study to learn geometric transformation and its components in an intuitive way. A LEGO set is used as an editable physical model to improve spatial skill through hand movement beside an instant feedback in the physical environment.

description: The large variety of 2D materials and their co-integration in van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures enable innovative device engineering. In addition, their atomically-thin nature promotes the design of artificial materials by proximity effects that originate from short-range interactions. Such a designer approach is particularly compelling for spintronics, which typically harnesses functionalities from thin layers of magnetic and non-magnetic materials and the interfaces between them. Here, we overview recent progress on 2D spintronics and opto-spintronics using vdW heterostructures. After an introduction to the forefront of spin transport research, we highlight the unique spin-related phenomena arising from spin-orbit and magnetic proximity effects. We further describe the ability to create multi-functional hybrid heterostructures based on vdW materials, combining spin, valley and excitonic degrees of freedom. We end with an outlook on perspectives and challenges for the design and production of ultra-compact all-2D spin devices and their potential applications in conventional and quantum technologies.

description: We present here the characterization of the night sky-brightness at the near-infrared, the telescope seeing, and the fraction of useful time at the Calar Alto observatory. For this study we have collected a large dataset comprising 7311 near-infrared images taken regularly along the last four years for the ALHAMBRA survey (J, H and Ks-bands), together with a more reduced dataset of additional near-infrared images taken for the current study. In addition we collected the information derived by the meteorological station at the observatory during the last 10 years, together with the results from the cloud sensor for the last ~2 years. We analyze the dependency of the near-infrared night sky-brightness with the airmass and the seasons, studying its origins and proposing a zenithal correction. A strong correlation is found between the night sky-brightness in the Ks-band and the air temperature, with a gradient of ~ -0.08 mag per 1 C degree. The typical (darkest) night sky-brightness in the J, H and Ks-band are 15.95 mag (16.95 mag), 13.99 mag (14.98 mag) and 12.39 mag (13.55 mag), respectively. These values show that Calar Alto is as dark in the near-infrared as most of the other astronomical astronomical sites in the world that we could compare with. Only Mauna Kea is clearly darker in the Ks-band. The typical telescope seeing at the 3.5m is ~1.0" when converted to the V-band, being only slightly larger than the atmospheric seeing measured at the same time by the seeing monitor, ~0.9". Finally we estimate the fraction of useful time based on the relative humidity, gust wind speed and presence of clouds. This fraction, ~72%, is very similar to the one derived in Paper I, based on the fraction of time when the extinction monitor is working.

description: Currently, pathological prognosis is very important in all areas of health care.  However, although this prediction is of great importance and scientific and practical importance in dentistry, we have not yet received information about the prophylactic model of the individual risk of periodontitis in patients with cardiovascular disease.  In these cases, it is important to individually assess and predict the risk of periodontitis in patients with arrhythmias.  These studies serve as the basis for identifying patients at high risk of periodontitis, grouping them for dental monitoring, and taking measures to eliminate the negative consequences of periodontitis in cardiovascular disease.  The need to solve this problem is the basis of this research.

description: We consider a porous mediaum flow in which the gas is initially distributed in the exterior of an empty region (a hole) and study the final stage of the hole-filling process. Hole-filling is asymptotically described by a self-similar solution which depends on a constant determined by the initial configuration. In general, this constant must be found numerically.. Here we give an example of a one-dimensional symmetric flow where the constant is obtained explicitly.

description: Herkömmliche Leistungsbeurteilung hat einen sehr eingeschränkten Blick auf die Lernenden und deren Leistung sowie recht eng begrenzte Ziele. Dominierendes Ziel dieser Form von Leistungsbeurteilung ist es, die Lernenden zu bewerten und mit einer Ziffernnote einzustufen, die keine Auskunft darüber gibt, was besonders gut war und was getan werden kann, um Talente, Stärken und Schwächen der Schülerinnen und Schüler herauszufinden und zu fördern. E-Portfolio-Arbeit verfolgt einen anderen Ansatz. E-Portfolios zeigen die am besten gelungenen Artefakte der Lernenden, berücksichtigen deren Interessen und wertschätzen die Vielfalt. Portfolioarbeit zielt auf eine Reflexion des eigenen Lernens und eine Darstellung eigener Leistungen ab, wobei auf eine hohe Partizipation der Lernenden nicht nur bei der Auswahl der Produkte für das Portfolio, sondern auch bei der Beurteilung Wert gelegt wird. Eine prozessorientierte Bewertung von Lernenden erfordert allerdings auch eine andere didaktische Herangehensweise. Durch die Verwendung des E-Portfolios werden traditionelle Rollen und Strukturen aufgebrochen. Veränderungen der Lehr- und Lernprozesse beziehen sich einerseits auf die Struktur und Rahmenbedingungen, andererseits auf die Unterrichtsplanung und dessen Verlauf. In unserem Beitrag werden diese Veränderungen einerseits kurz beschrieben, andererseits wird anhand eines Praxisbeispiels aus dem Englischunterricht gezeigt, wie ein Projekt mit einem E-Portfolio gestaltet und beurteilt werden kann.

Genus Bifidobacterium: taxonomy studies and gene expression analysis on folate pathway

description: Folates (vitamin B9) are essential water soluble vitamins, whose deficiency in humans may contribute to the onset of several diseases, such as anaemia, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, neurological problems as well as defects in embryonic development. Human and other mammals are unable to synthesize ex novo folate obtaining it from exogenous sources, via intestinal absorption. Recently the gut microbiota has been identified as an important source of folates and the selection and use of folate producing microorganisms represents an innovative strategy to increase human folate levels. 
The aim of this thesis was to gain a fundamental understanding of folate metabolism in Bifidobacterium adolescentis. The work was subdivided in three main phases, also aimed to solve different problems encountered working with Bifidobacterium strains. First, a new identification method (based on PCR-RFLP of hsp60 gene) was specifically developed to identify Bifidobacterium strains. Secondly, Bifidobacterium adolescentis biodiversity was explored in order to recognize representing strains of this species to be screened for their folate production ability. Results showed that this species is characterized by a wide variability and support the idea that a possible new taxonomic re-organization would be required. Finally B. adolescentis folate metabolism was studied using a double approach. A quantitative analysis of folate content was complemented by the examination of expression levels of genes involved in folate related pathways.  For the normalization process, required to increase the robustness of the qRT-PCR analysis, an appropriate set of reference genes was tested using two different algorithms. Results demonstrate that B.adolescentis strains may represent an endogenous source of natural folate and they could be used to fortify fermented dairy products. This bio-fortification strategy presents many advantages for the consumer, providing native folate forms more bio-available, and not implicated in the discussed controversy concerning the safety of high intake of synthetic folic acid.

description: Physicists are starting to work in areas where noisy signal analysis is required. In these fields, such as Economics, Neuroscience, and Physics, the notion of causality should be interpreted as a statistical measure. We introduce to the lay reader the Granger causality between two time series and illustrate ways of calculating it: a signal $X$ ``Granger-causes'' a signal $Y$ if the observation of the past of $X$ increases the predictability of the future of $Y$ when compared to the same prediction done with the past of $Y$ alone. In other words, for Granger causality between two quantities it suffices that information extracted from the past of one of them improves the forecast of the future of the other, even in the absence of any physical mechanism of interaction. We present derivations of the Granger causality measure in the time and frequency domains and give numerical examples using a non-parametric estimation method in the frequency domain. Parametric methods are addressed in the Appendix. We discuss the limitations and applications of this method and other alternatives to measure causality.

description: We present spatially resolved near-IR spectroscopic observations of 15 young stars. Using a grism spectrometer behind the Keck Interferometer, we obtained an angular resolution of a few milli-arcseconds and a spectral resolution of 230, enabling probes of both gas and dust in the inner disks surrounding the target stars. We find that the angular size of the near-IR emission typically increases with wavelength, indicating hot, presumably gaseous material within the dust sublimation radius. Our data also clearly indicate Brackett-gamma emission arising from hot hydrogen gas, and suggest the presence of water vapor and carbon monoxide gas in the inner disks of several objects. This gaseous emission is more compact than the dust continuum emission in all cases. We construct simple physical models of the inner disk and fit them to our data to constrain the spatial distribution and temperature of dust and gas emission components.

description: Ion-induced DNA damage is an important effect underlying ion-beam cancer therapy. This paper introduces the methodology of modeling DNA damage induced by a shock wave caused by a projectile ion. Specifically, it is demonstrated how single- and double-strand breaks in a DNA molecule could be described by the reactive CHARMM (rCHARMM) force field implemented in the program MBN Explorer. The entire workflow of performing the shock wave simulations, including obtaining the crucial simulation parameters, is described in seven steps. Two exemplary analyses are provided for a case study simulation serving to (i) quantify the shock wave propagation and (ii) describe the dynamics of the formation of DNA breaks. The paper concludes by discussing the computational cost of the simulations and revealing the possible maximal computational time for different simulation setups.

description: We discuss how lensing by magnetic fields in galaxy clusters affects ultrahigh energy cosmic ray (UHECR) observations. As specific example, we use Virgo together with the cluster magnetic fields obtained earlier in a constrained simulation of structure formation including MHD processes. We find that, if M87 is the single source of UHECRs from Virgo, the emitted flux is strongly anisotropic in the most interesting energy range, (50-100)EeV, and differs from the average value by a factor five or more for a significant fraction of observers. Since magnetic lensing is energy dependent, the external energy spectrum as seen by different observers varies strongly too. These anisotropies are averaged out in the case that all active galactic nuclei in Virgo emit UHECRs. In both cases, the anisotropies of the emitted UHECR flux may introduce an important bias in the interpretation of UHECR data like, e.g., the determination of the source density n_s and the source energy spectrum of UHECRs.

A joint model for the emission and absorption properties of damped Lyman alpha absorption systems
Creators: name: Barnes, Luke A.
name: Haehnelt, Martin G.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The recently discovered population of ultra-faint extended line emitters can account for the majority of the incidence rate of Damped Lyman Alpha systems (DLAs) at z ~ 3 if the line emission is interpreted as Ly alpha. We show here that a model similar to that proposed by Haehnelt, Steinmetz, & Rauch (2000), which explains the incidence rate and kinematics of DLAs in the context of $Λ$CDM models for structure formation, also reproduces the size distribution of the new population of faint Ly alpha emitters for plausible parameters. This lends further support to identification of the emitters with the hitherto elusive population of DLA host galaxies. The observed incidence rate of DLAs together with the observed space density and size distribution of the emitters suggest a duty cycle of ~ 0.2 - 0.4 for the Ly alpha emission from DLA host galaxies. We further show that Ly alpha cooling is expected to contribute little to the Ly alpha emission for the majority of emitters. This leaves centrally concentrated star formation at a rate of a few tenths M_sun/yr, surrounded by extended Ly alpha halos with radii up to 30-50 kpc, as the most plausible explanation for the origin of the emission. Both the luminosity function of Ly alpha emission and the velocity width distribution of low ionization absorption require that galaxies inside Dark Matter (DM) halos with virial velocities < 50 - 70 km/s contribute little to the incidence rate of DLAs at z ~ 3, suggesting that energy and momentum input due to star formation efficiently removes gas from these halos. Galaxies with DM halos with virial velocities of 100 - 150 km/s appear to account for the majority of DLA host galaxies. DLA host galaxies at z ~ 3 should thus become the building blocks of typical present-day galaxies.

Contextualizing Voice in Refugee Youth Research
Creators: name: Trujillo, Lisa
Publisher: name: Medienimpulse
Year: 2018

description: In recent years, increased attention has been placed on the situations of unaccompanied refugee minors (URM) living in Europe, and current research regarding their perspectives and voices has begun to foster greater insight into their daily lives. Despite this, there is a great lack of contextualization and critical examination of the production and use of their voices in research. This paper attends to this gap in research by focusing on the micro to macro contexts which give rise to their voices – particularly emphasizing power relations – and by exploring the multiple features of voice. It argues that greater significance and meaning in their statements come from the contexts in which they were produced in, and less in the abstract or literalness of their words or silences. This is demonstrated by drawing upon evidence from a study that was conducted with URM in Berlin, reflecting upon the methodological factors that were unique to conducting research with this group, and by addressing the larger discursive contexts in which their statements were situated in. Through this examination we uncover a greater range of possibilities for interpretations and meanings to their responses that could result into more comprehensive and fruitful insights into their lives. This paper advocates for greater reflexivity in research, which not only opens up more avenues of meanings and interpretations, but it can also help address issues of de-contextualization and misrepresentation of refugees, and can promote higher quality research

description: Depression represents a significant comorbidity in people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA). The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of depression among PLWHA in India and to identify the factors associated with it. Following PRISMA guidelines, a thorough search of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar was conducted to identify relevant records. The overall prevalence was determined using a random-effects model, at 95% confidence interval. Eighteen studies, encompassing a total sample of 5082 PLWHA, were examined. The pooled prevalence of depression among PLWHA in India was 39.1% (95% CI: 30.4; 48.5). Subgroup analysis demonstrated prevalence rates of 56.0% in the East, 47.7% in Central India, 45.5% in the North, 37.6% in the West, and 26.9% in the South regions of India (p < 0.01). Another subgroup analysis based on the assessment tool used revealed significantly varying prevalence rates of depression (p < 0.01): 56.5% in studies employing CES-D (Center for Epidemiologic Studies - Depression) scale, 48.5% with MADRS (Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale), and 18.1% using PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9). Female gender, lack of education and employment, low self-esteem, and experiencing negative stigma were identified as factors associated with depression among PLWHA. Depression is prevalent among PLWHA in India, highlighting the importance of regular screening and management of mental health conditions in this population.

description: Recently developed plasmonic nanostructures are able to generate intense and localized magnetic hot spots in a large spectral range from the terahertz to the visible. However, a direct measurement of the magnetic field at the hot spot has not been performed yet, due to the absence of magnetic field detectors that work at those high frequencies and that fit the hot-spot area. We propose to place a graphene ribbon in the hot spot of a plasmonic nanostructure driven by a laser beam, such that a current is generated due to both the magnetic field at the hot spot and the electric field of the laser. We demonstrate that a nonlinear Hall voltage, which can be measured by standard electrical means, builds up across the ribbon, making it possible to directly probe the magnetic field at the hot spot.

description: Plastic yielding in solids strongly depends on various conditions, such as temperature and loading rate and indeed, sample-dependent knowledge of yield points in structural materials promotes reliability in mechanical behavior. Commonly, yielding is measured through controlled mechanical testing at small or large scales, in ways that either distinguish elastic (stress) from total deformation measurements, or by identifying plastic slip contributions. In this paper we argue that instead of separate elastic/plastic measurements, yielding can be unraveled through statistical analysis of total strain fluctuations during the evolution sequence of profiles measured in-situ, through digital image correlation. We demonstrate two distinct ways of precisely quantifying yield locations in widely applicable crystal plasticity models, that apply in polycrystalline solids, either by using principal component analysis or discrete wavelet transforms. We test and compare these approaches in synthetic data of polycrystal simulations and a variety of yielding responses, through changes of the applied loading rates and the strain-rate sensitivity exponents.

description: Wir haben untersucht, wie Studierende Bewegtbilder verstehen. Der Beitrag fasst dazu die Ergebnisse mehrerer Teilstudien zusammen. In diesen Studien haben wir Daten zur Konstruktion von Bedeutung während des Konsums von Filmen, Fernsehprogrammen und Onlinevideos erhoben. Dabei haben wir nach Antworten auf folgende Fragen gesucht: Welche Strategien zum Verstehen von Bewegtbildern werden im Sinneder Analyse von Bewegtbildinhalten verwendet? Gibt es Unterschiede zwischen Studierenden, die Filmwissenschaft studieren, und anderen Studierenden? Welche Medienkompetenzlevel können bei Kindern identifiziert werden? Welche Entwicklungsaufgaben können identifiziert werden? Für die Verstehensstrategien der Studierenden kann festgehalten werden, dass einige Aspekte von Bewegtbildinhalten (Genre, Plot, Trailer, Titel) besonders relevant für die Rezeption und die Interpretation sind. Die formale Ausbildung hat eine nur sekundäre Funktion für die Entwicklung der Verstehenskompetenzen. Zwar ist bei bestimmten Aspekten die Rolle der Vermittlung der Bewegtbildkultur und der Medienwissenschaft erkennbar, so z.B. im Kontext von manchen Interpretationsgemeinschaften. Dennoch kann die Schulung nicht mit andere Sozialisationsfaktoren konkurrieren. Damit wird die Rolle der Medienerziehung erfassbar: Diese kann zu Ergebnissen führen, wenn in der Vermittlung der Bewegtbildkultur und in medienwissenschaftlichen Kursen an das Vorwissen der Studierenden angeschlossen wird. Dieses Ergebnis ist auch für die Planung von Medienerziehung in fächerübergreifenden Curricula relevant. Die Ergebnisse der Studien können in die Entwicklung von Kompetenzen zur Wissenskonstruktion integriert werden. Wir hoffen, dass die Studien einen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Konzeptualisierung von Bewegtbildern durch Studierende leisten und dieses Wissen genutzt werden kann, um die Ausbildung in formalen Settings zu verbessern.

description: We consider two-player games played over finite state spaces for an infinite number of rounds. At each state, the players simultaneously choose moves; the moves determine a successor state. It is often advantageous for players to choose probability distributions over moves, rather than single moves. Given a goal, for example, reach a target state, the question of winning is thus a probabilistic one: what is the maximal probability of winning from a given state? On these game structures, two fundamental notions are those of equivalences and metrics. Given a set of winning conditions, two states are equivalent if the players can win the same games with the same probability from both states. Metrics provide a bound on the difference in the probabilities of winning across states, capturing a quantitative notion of state similarity. We introduce equivalences and metrics for two-player game structures, and we show that they characterize the difference in probability of winning games whose goals are expressed in the quantitative mu-calculus. The quantitative mu-calculus can express a large set of goals, including reachability, safety, and omega-regular properties. Thus, we claim that our relations and metrics provide the canonical extensions to games, of the classical notion of bisimulation for transition systems. We develop our results both for equivalences and metrics, which generalize bisimulation, and for asymmetrical versions, which generalize simulation.

description: The field of computational modeling of the brain is advancing so rapidly that now it is possible to model large scale networks representing different brain regions with a high level of biological detail in terms of numbers and synapses. For a theoretician approaching a neurobiological question, it is important to analyze the pros and cons of each of the models available. Here, we provide a tutorial review on recent models for different brain circuits, which are based on experimentally obtained connectivity maps. We discuss particularities that may be relevant to the modeler when choosing one of the reviewed models. The objective of this review is to give the reader a fair notion of the computational models covered, with emphasis on the corresponding connectivity maps, and how to use them.

description: With the rapid development of quantum technology, one of the leading applications is the simulation of chemistry. Interestingly, even before full scale quantum computers are available, quantum computer science has exhibited a remarkable string of results that directly impact what is possible in chemical simulation with any computer. Some of these results even impact our understanding of chemistry in the real world. In this perspective, we take the position that direct chemical simulation is best understood as a digital experiment. While on one hand this clarifies the power of quantum computers to extend our reach, it also shows us the limitations of taking such an approach too directly. Leveraging results that quantum computers cannot outpace the physical world, we build to the controversial stance that some chemical problems are best viewed as problems for which no algorithm can deliver their solution in general, known in computer science as undecidable problems. This has implications for the predictive power of thermodynamic models and topics like the ergodic hypothesis. However, we argue that this perspective is not defeatist, but rather helps shed light on the success of existing chemical models like transition state theory, molecular orbital theory, and thermodynamics as models that benefit from data. We contextualize recent results showing that data-augmented models are more powerful rote simulation. These results help us appreciate the success of traditional chemical theory and anticipate new models learned from experimental data. Not only can quantum computers provide data for such models, but they can extend the class and power of models that utilize data in fundamental ways. These discussions culminate in speculation on new ways for quantum computing and chemistry to interact and our perspective on the eventual roles of quantum computers in the future of chemistry.
A New Method for Estimating Dark Matter Halo Masses using Globular Cluster Systems

description: All galaxies are thought to reside within large halos of dark matter, whose properties can only be determined from indirect observations. The formation and assembly of galaxies is determined from the interplay between these dark matter halos and the baryonic matter they host. Although statistical relations can be used to approximate how massive a galaxy's halo is, very few individual galaxies have direct measurements of their halo masses. We present a method to directly estimate the total mass of a galaxy's dark halo using its system of globular clusters. The link between globular cluster systems and halo masses is independent of a galaxy's type and environment, in contrast to the relationship between galaxy halo and stellar masses. This trend is expected in models where globular clusters form in early, rare density peaks in the cold dark matter density field and the epoch of reionisation was roughly coeval throughout the Universe. We illustrate the general utility of this relation by demonstrating that a galaxy's supermassive black hole mass and global X-ray luminosity are directly proportional to their host dark halo masses, as inferred from our new method.

description: Stimuli-responsive luminescent hybrid nanoparticles consisting of a magnetite Fe3O4 core and a hydrophilic outer shell were synthesized. The shell was a thermo-responsive Eu(III) complex shell, which was synthesized as follows: first, 3-Methacryloxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (MEMO)-co-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAM) (MEMO-co-PNIPAM) copolymer was prepared by free radical polymerization. Subsequently, the copolymer chelated with Europium(III) ions to form a luminescent polymeric layer. Finally, the polymeric shell was grafted onto the Fe3O4 nanoparticles surface through chemical action. The sizes of fabricated nanoparticles with core–shell structure were controlled at about 30-45 nm. The as-synthesized nanocomposite particles had excellent fluorescence performance and thermo-responsive behavior, which possessed high color purity and produced red-emission at 613 nm. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of thermo-sensitive magnetic nanoparticles was at around 37–38 °C. Cell viability assays suggested that these nanoparticles showed excellent biocompatibility and fluorescence-intensity in vitro.

description: Designers increasingly rely on procedural generation for automatic generation of content in various industries. These techniques require extensive knowledge of the desired content, and about how to actually implement such procedural methods. Algorithms for learning interpretable generative models from example content could alleviate both difficulties. We propose SIGI, a novel method for inferring shapes and inducing a shape grammar from grid-based 3D building examples. This interpretable grammar is well-suited for co-creative design. Applied to Minecraft buildings, we show how the shape grammar can be used to automatically generate new buildings in a similar style.
