description: In the professional field of civil engineering, there is only so much that can be taught in school. Many of the skills needed to effectively complete tasks must be learnt after entering the workforce. Furthermore, with the advancement of technology and continuous changing regulations, the practice evolves quickly. The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) has recognized the need for individuals to grow with the industry and has emphasized the need for graduates to be capable of engaging in lifelong learning (LLL). However, what being a lifelong learner entails in this century from practicing engineers' perspective has yet to be defined. This study investigates the key skills associated with being a successful civil engineer by interviewing 19 currently practicing engineers in the Pacific Northwest from a variety of civil engineering firms. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the interview data and identify common themes. All participants agreed that continued education was essential for success in their field. In regard to learned skills, it was found that not only technical skills, but also communication, interpersonal, and business skills are essential for engineering. The importance of the different skills changes as careers evolve and are dependent on individuals' career decisions. Based on the collected data, technical skills are most important in the first few years of an engineer's career while the other skill groups gain significance after moving into management positions. This work has further confirmed the curricular theory that communication, interpersonal, and business skills play a large role in the industry and suggests that universities should continue to focus student development effort towards these abilities. Learning methods were also investigated. Mentorship and experience were found to be the most preferred and frequently engaged methods. Mentorship plays an integral role in the engineering experience and can shape an individuals' career, making it essential for students to be prepared for this style of learning. Overall, LLL is a must and the skills identified by practitioners should be emphasized in curriculum. To further this research, a study of students' perceptions of LLL could identify gaps and encourage more specific curricular or pedagogical changes.

description: Eisen (Fe) ist allgegenwärtig und ein wichtiges redox aktives Element. Es ist mit vielen relevanten Elementkreisläufen verknüpft und wichtig für die Bioverfügbarkeit von Schwermetallen, Toxinen und Nährstoffen. Redoxreaktionen mit Eisen können durch abiotische und biotische Prozesse durchgeführt werden. Bakterien, die Fe(II) oxidieren können, sind anoxygene phototrophe Fe(II)-oxidierer. Diese photoferrotrophen Bakterien gewinnen Energie durch die Photosynthese, fixieren CO2 als Kohlenstoffquelle und verwenden Fe(II) als Elektronendonator. Photoferrotrophe Bakterien sind metabolisch flexibel und können weitere Substrate wie H2, S2O3- und organische Stoffe als Elektronendonatoren und Kohlenstoffquellen nutzen. Dies wirft die Frage auf, welches Substrat photoferrotrophe Bakterien verwenden würden, wenn mehrere vorhanden sind, den Einfluss der Ko-Substratnutzung auf die Fe(II)-Oxidation, insbesondere auf die Fe(II)-Oxidationsraten und die Mineralbildung bei umweltrelevanten Substratkonzentrationen. Weiterhin haben wir den Einfluss der Lichtexposition durch einen Tag-/Nachtzyklus und die optimale Pufferkonzentration untersucht.

Background: Women's health and well-being (WHW) have been receiving growing attention, but limited progress has been made on how to measure its different domains in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We used data from five long-term birth cohorts in Brazil, Guatemala, the Philippines and South Africa to explore different domains of adult WHW, and how these domains relate to early life exposures. Methods: Based upon an a priori conceptualisation of eight postulated WHW outcomes available in the data, we grouped them as follows: human capital (intelligence quotient, schooling, height, and teenage childbearing), metabolic health (body mass index and metabolic syndrome score), and psychological (happiness and Self-Reported Questionnaire (SRQ) scores). Correlation analyses confirmed the variables theoretically belonging to the same dimension of WHW were statistically related. We then applied principal component analysis to each group of variables separately and used the first principal component as a summary quantitative measure of the corresponding WHW dimension. Finally, we assessed the association of each domain with a range of early-life factors: wealth, maternal education, maternal height, water, and sanitation, birthweight, length at two years and development quotient in mid-childhood. Results: The three domains were largely uncorrelated. Early determinants were positively associated with human capital, while birth order was negatively associated. Fewer associations were found for the metabolic or psychological components. Birthweight and weight at age two years were inversely associated with metabolic health. Maternal education was associated with better psychological health. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that WHW is multidimensional, with most women in the cohorts being compromised in one or more domains while few women scored highly in all three domains. Our analyses are limited by lack of data on adolescent exposures and on other relevant WHW dimensions such as safety, agency, empowerment, and violence. Further research is needed in LMICs for identifying and measuring the multiple domains of WHW.

description: Die hämatopoetische Stammzelltransplantation (HSZT) war in den letzten 30 Jahren die einzige verfügbare Therapieoption für die juvenile metachromatische Leukodystrophie (MLD). Während die Langzeitergebnisse bereits systematisch untersucht wurden, war das Ziel dieser Arbeit, den frühen Krankheitsverlauf nach HSZT zu charakterisieren, prognostische Faktoren für eine stabiles Outcome zu finden und zu untersuchen, ob die HSZT eventuell einen negativen Effekt auf das Fortschreiten der Erkrankung haben könnte. In dieser Studie wurde der klinische Verlauf in den ersten 24 Monaten nach der HSZT bei 12 Kindern, die an der Universitätsklinik für Kinder- und Jugendmedizin Tübingen transplantiert wurden, untersucht (mittlere Nachbeobachtungszeit 6,75 Jahre, Spanne 3-13,5 Jahre) und mit 35 nicht-transplantierten Kindern mit juveniler MLD verglichen. Die motorische (GMFM-88 und GMFC-MLD) und kognitive Funktion (IQ) sowie die periphere Neuropathie (NLG des N. tibialis) und die zerebralen Veränderungen (MLD MR Severity Score) wurden prospektiv getestet. 12 Kinder wurden erfolgreich und ohne relevante Komplikationen transplantiert. Sieben Kinder blieben über einen langen Zeitraum neurologisch stabil, fünf zeigten in den ersten 12 bis 18 Monaten nach der Transplantation ein rasches Fortschreiten der Erkrankung. Positive prognostische Faktoren waren eine gute motorische Funktion (GMFM = 100 %, GMFC-MLD = 0) und ein niedriger MLD MR Severity Score (≤ 17) zum Zeitpunkt der HSZT. Bei den Kindern, die unter einer schnellen Krankheitsprogredienz litten, war die Zeit von den ersten grobmotorischen Symptomen bis zum Verlust des selbstständigen Gehens im Vergleich zu nicht-transplantierten Patient*innen im gleichen Krankheitsstadium signifikant kürzer (p < 0,02). Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, dass ein Fortschreiten der Erkrankung, wenn es denn dazu kommt, schon früh nach der HSZT eintritt. Eine gute grobmotorische Funktion, sowie geringe Auffälligkeiten im MRT gehen mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit für einen stabilen Krankheitsverlauf einher. Die Verschlechterung der kognitiven Funktion verlief parallel zur Verschlechterung der Grobmotorik. Bei Patient*innen, die unter einer schnellen Krankheitsprogredienz litten, verlief die grobmotorische Verschlechterung schneller als bei nicht-transplantierten Patient*innen, was darauf hindeutet, dass die HSZT das Fortschreiten der Erkrankung auslösen kann. Zusammengenommen unterstreichen unsere Daten die Bedeutung einer HSZT in frühem Krankheitsstadium ohne deutliche grobmotorische Symptome und mit geringen Auffälligkeiten im MRT für ein gutes prognostisches Outcome.

description:             The modern-day agriculture and livestock rearing based on intensive farming practices were initially believed to be the best way to increase production and meeting the growing feed and food demands. Green revolution has uplifted the use of high yielding varieties, chemical fertilizers and pesticides, thereby, deteriorating soil health and population of beneficial microbes (Koner and Laha, 2021). Besides, these practices have led to tremendous degradation of environmental quality. Injudicious use of fertilizers has reduced soil quality and lowered the microbial count of soil. The extensive spraying of pesticides, herbicides, growth regulators, etc., has lot of ill implications. In addition to the deteriorating soil and plant health, animals and humans feeding onto the crops are also affected, causing serious health issues (John and Babu, 2021).

description: By expanding the response of a cylindrical shell in truncated Fourier series, the nonlinear Donnell type shell equations for imperfect stiffened shells were reduced to a set of linear equations in the correction terms by Newton's method of quasilinearization. Solutions
were obtained for isotropic and for ring and stringer stiffened shells. The amplitudes of the initial imperfections used in the analysis were
calculated from the corresponding Imbert-Donnell imperfection models. The free parameters in this imperfection model were obtained by
least square fitting the harmonics of the experimentally measured initial imperfections. It was possible in all cases to achieve satisfactory correlation using only a few suitably chosen deflection and imperfection modes.

Using CRISPR-Cas9 to knockout brassinosteroid inactivation genes in Arabidopsis thaliana
Creators: name: Westenskow, Shelby  Ruth
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2019
Subjects: Arabidopsis thaliana--Genetic engineering
Brassinosteroids--Synthesis--Regulation

description: Brassinosteroids (BRs) are important plant growth-promoting hormones involved in many processes throughout plant development from seed germination to flowering time. Since BRs do not undergo long-distance transport, cell- and tissue-specific regulation of hormone levels involves both biosynthesis and inactivation. To date, ten BR-inactivating enzymes, with at least five distinct biochemical activities, have been experimentally identified in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Generating higher-order null mutants in these genes has been hampered by epigenetic interactions between T-DNA insertion alleles as well as due to genetic linkage. The focus of this thesis is to target some of these genes using the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system. For example, previous studies demonstrated that the bas1-2 sob7-1 ben1-1 triple-null mutant could not be generated due to epigenetic interactions between the exonic T-DNA insertions in bas1-2 and sob7-1 causing the intronic T-DNA insertion of ben1-1 to no longer confer a null-allele. To alleviate this problem, the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system was used to create bas1-2 sob7-1 ben1-3 triple-null mutant. This triple-null mutant resulted in an additive seedling long-hypocotyl phenotype. In contrast, the triple-null mutant uncovered a role for BEN1-mediated BR-inactivation in seedling cotyledon petiole elongation that was not conferred by the single ben1-2 null mutant but only in the absence of both BAS1 and SOB7. In addition, genetic analysis demonstrated that BEN1 does not contribute to the early-flowering phenotype that is redundantly controlled by BAS1 and SOB7. While targeting BEN1, an additional BR-inactivating gene UGT73C5 was simultaneously targeted using a multiplex CRISPRCas9 system. This quadruple-null bas1-2 sob7-1 ben1-3 ugt73c5-1 mutant demonstrated additional phenotypic complexity associated with BR-inactivation. The resolution of this complex interaction will likely require also targeting the genetically linked and chromosomally-adjacent UGT73C5 duplicate, UGT73C6. As a part of this thesis, three additional BR-inactivating genes, BAT1 and the BAT1-like genes BAL1 and BAL2 were also targeted using a multiplex CRISPR-Cas9 system in the quadruple-null-mutant background and the Col-0 wildtype background as a part of the Neff Lab's goal of generating higher-order null-mutant combinations for all ten BR-inactivating genes in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome.

description: The main purpose of this work is to compare the relative technical, economic and allocative efficiency of the labor-managed firm model with that of the capital-managed firm in the case of agricultural production. This work also aims to investigate sources of inefficiency and evaluate the sources contributing to the efficiency of the firm. Through a comparative review of the theory of the firm, the behavior of producer cooperatives is distinguished from that of the private corporations. In light of the theory's predictions hypotheses enabling the evaluation of the comparative efficiency of both types of firm were formulated and appropriate estimation methods mainly a stochastic production and cost frontier analysis was employed in the aim of solving controversial questions involving the Tunisian public view, academics and policy makers: Which structure uses more efficiently the public farming land, cooperatives or private corporations? Which category of size is more appropriate, large or small holding areas? Which production model contributes to the triple bottom line of sustainability and could be qualified as sustainable? The results confirm that cooperatives (COOPs) as participatory structures continue to be more efficient than their conventional twins- the capital managed corporations (CORPs) and the inverse relationship between size and efficiency within cooperatives and corporations has also been verified. The findings highlight the positive effect of the participatory decision making process on the economic success of the firm. Moreover, results have shown that cooperative structures produce more, hire more labor, better value the use of resources and have a greater social and environmental impact than their capital-managed counterparts.

description: This thesis is concerned with control of a network opinion dynamics by selfish agents. A network opinion dynamics with linear averaging updates and a selfish agent is considered for this study. The selfish agent uses a projection (statistic) of network opinions in feedback to regulate the dynamics, with the goal of driving other agents' opinions to a desired reference goal. The selfish agent in this work is modeled as proportional and proportional-integral feedback controller to manipulate network opinions of local agents or global network agents. Further the model is extended to consider nonlinear capping conditions, where all agents opinions are bounded between 0 and 1. Finally, simulations of the manipulated network dynamics under variety of scenarios are developed. The empirical analyses and simulations were conducted using a real-world social network, representing frequent interactions between dolphins in the Doubtful Sound, a remote Fjord in New Zealand. Additionally the thesis presents an application of feedback control in designing a self-adapting software analysis system. The results presented in this thesis motivates for use of distributed control for software analysis systems.
The Effects of Damköhler Number in a Turbulent Shear Layer

description: A simple model describing chemical reaction in a turbulent shear layer is put in quantitative form and the model predictions compared with experiment. The reactants are not pre-mixed and the flow is two-dimensional. The dependence of the amount of product in the layer on the Schmidt, Reynolds, and Damköhler numbers and on the
stoichiometric ratio is exhibited explicitly in the model. The first two parameters appear as the product (ScRe) and influence that part of the reaction taking place in strained laminar flames. In the limit
ScRe → = (for Sc > 1 and Re >> 1) the molecular mixing becomes independent of these parameters as it is in classical turbulence theory
but the composition and spatial distribution of the molecularly mixed
fluid does not resemble those given by such theories. The model predictions are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results for a Damköhler number range from zero to a mixing limited value. The comparison with a set of data for gases in which Re was varied is somewhat less satisfactory.

The Effects of Damkohler Number on a Turbulent Shear Layer - Experimental Results

Year: 1985

description: A chemical reaction for which the reaction rate can be varied is studied in a fully developed, two-dimensional, turbulent mixing layer. The layer is formed between two nitrogen streams, one carrying low concentrations of
fluorine and the other hydrogen and nitric oxide. For fixed concentrations of fluorine and hydrogen and for nitric oxide concentrations that are small fractions of the fluorine concentration, the heat release is fixed
but the overall reaction rate is controlled by the nitric oxide concentration. Therefore, for fixed flow conditions, the nitric oxide concentration determines the ratio of the reaction rate to the mixing rate. For
large values of this ratio, the amount of product, at a given downstream location, measured by the mean temperature rise, is independent of the reaction rate, i.e., the reaction is mixing limited. As the reaction rate
is reduced the major effects are: (1) amount of product declines (as expected), (2) the mean temperature profile, which is initially some what unsymmetrical because the hydrogen-fluorine freestream concentration ratio
is set at a large value, becomes symmetrical, and (3) the ramp-like instantaneous temperature traces within the large structure gradually become more top-hat.

Parent-child interaction factors : predictors of infant emotion regulation
Creators: name: CAMPAGNA, ALLEGRA XIU HONG
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Parent and infant

description: Emotion regulation refers to the cognitive, behavioral, and psychological processes that allow individuals to modulate the experience and expression of both positive and negative emotions (Gross, 1998). Despite emerging research, it is still unclear how various factors of parent-child interaction may influence an infant's ability to behaviorally regulate their emotions during an aversive event. The current study aims to address this gap in the literature by examining how five factors of parenting (i.e., responsiveness/sensitivity, reciprocity/synchrony, tempo, intensity, and emotional tone; Gartstein, Hancock, & Iverson, 2018) influence an infant's self-soothing behavior during a laboratory task designed to elicit infant distress, the Still-Face Paradigm (SFP). Researchers developed a code for infant regulatory behaviors based on the literature (e.g., Fogel, 1982; Hornik, & Gunnar, 1988), with behaviors including the following: hand waving, kicking feet, looking to mother, banging on the table, playing with cups, hand/object to mouth, and vocalizations. Secondary data analyses were performed with existing data (N=79). Data were analyzed using correlation and regression analyses to examine associations between factors of parent-child interactions and infant soothing behavior during the SFP. Regression analyses entering all parent-child interaction factors as one step, controlling for child sex, age, and family SES, yielded non-significant results potentially due to limited sample size and issues with power. Exploratory analyses were also conducted. These findings contribute to our understanding of how parent-child interaction factors predict infant regulatory behaviors. In this way, more tailored early interventions can be developed to better assist families experiencing issues with parent-child interaction and early emotion regulation.

description: Decades of research have shown that animals and humans alike share an innate 'sense of number' that provides the cognitive start-up tool for the construction of all formal mathematical concepts. This system is anchored in a complex, highly distributed and interconnected neuronal 'number network'. In this thesis I could bridge the gap between single-unit recordings in animals and macroscopic functional imaging studies in humans, using the rare opportunity to record the activity of single neurons in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) of behaving human patients. In two different experimental protocols, calculation task and parity judgement task, we were able to explore several seemingly disparate aspects of numerical and mathematical cognition, addressing questions that had yet been eluded from investigation. As a first fundamental insight, we showed that single cells in the MTL can encode information about both quantities and simple arithmetic rules. These numerical representations follow a labelled-line coding. Segregated populations of neurons that encode numerosities and numerals with distinct tuning profiles, however, indicate different degrees of abstractness for nonsymbolic and symbolic stimulus formats. As a neuronal basis of numerical and arithmetic representations these cells may ultimately give rise to number theory and mathematics. Next, we revealed striking coding differences between small and large numerosities, mirroring subitizing and estimation processes that provide an intriguing link to the complex interplay of attention, working memory, and number representations. Finally, we uncovered static and dynamic coding mechanisms in different subregions of the MTL that do not only emphasize the MTL's role as an integral part of a wider cortical maths network, but equally important, highlight the substantial role this highly associative area also plays in working memory processes. All these findings provide valuable puzzle pieces that deepen our understanding of numerical representations constituting our 'sense of number'.

Chemical Reactions in Turbulent Mixing Flows
Creators: name: Dimotakis, Paul E.
name: Leonard, Anthony
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1993

description: The purpose of this research is to conduct fundamental investigations of turbulent mixing, chemical reaction and combustion processes in turbulent, subsonic
and supersonic flows. The program during this reporting period was comprised of several parts:

a. an experimental effort,
b. a numerical simulation effort,
and
c. an effort to develop instrumentation and diagnostics; flow and combustion facilities; and data-acquisition systems.

The latter as dictated by the specific needs of the experimental part of the program.

Our approach in this research has been to carry out a series of detailed theoretical and experimental studies of turbulent mixing in primarily in two, well-defined,
fundamentally important flow fields: free-shear layers and axisymmetric jets. To elucidate molecular transport effects, experiments and theory concern themselves
with both reacting and non-reacting flows of liquids and gases, in fully-developed turbulent flows, i.e., in moderate to high Reynolds number flows. A criterion for
fully-developed turbulence was recently developed and will be presented below.

The computational studies are, at present, focused at fundamental formulation and implementation issues pertaining to the computational simulation of both
compressible and incompressible flows characterized by strong fronts, such as shock waves and flames.

Our diagnostic development efforts have recently been focused on improving the signal-to-noise ratio of flow images, in both gas- and liquid-phase flows, as well
as the continuing development of data-acquisition electronics to meet very high-speed,
high-volume data requirements; the acquisition of single, or pairs, of two-dimensional
images in rapid succession; and the acquisition of data from arrays of supersonic flow sensors.

Image correlation velocimetry

description: This paper focuses on the correlation of two successive scalar images for the purpose of measuring imaged fluid motions. A method is presented for deforming,
or transforming, one image to another. Taylor series expansions of the Lagrangian displacement field are used, in conjunction with an integral form of the equations
of motion, to approximate this transformation. The proposed method locally correlates images for displacements, rotations, deformations, and higher order displacement
gradient fields, and applies a global minimization procedure to insure a global consistency in the results. An integral form of the equations of motion is employed
and, as a consequence, no spatial or temporal differentiation of the image data is
required in estimating the displacement field. Successive two-dimensional digital CCD images of fluid motion marked with dye, are used to verify the capabilities of
the method. The utility of the method is also illustrated using a pair of Voyager 2 images of Jupiter.
