3D PRINTED MULTILAYERED / INTERFACIAL SCAFFOLDS FOR OSTEOCHONDRAL REGENERATION

description: Osteoarthritis is a highly prevalent rheumatic musculoskeletal disorder that primarily affects the knee joint. This disease is characterized by the progressive breakdown of the articular cartilage and remodeling of the subchondral bone in the synovial joint. Repetitive overloading perpetuates the damage to the affected cartilage and undermines the structural integrity of the osteochondral unit. Despite much research in osteochondral tissue engineering, no particular strategy has stood out as a potential alternative to conventional treatment options. One major issue that arises during osteochondral regeneration is that the defect site is exposed to a significant physiological load. To overcome these challenges, various tissue engineering strategies have been employed to design multiphasic osteochondral scaffolds that recapitulate layer-specific biomechanical properties. However, multilayered scaffolds have failed to fully satisfy the mechanical requirements to persists within the osteochondral defect. Through the use of extrusion-based bioprinting, we attempt to fabricate a biphasic osteochondral scaffold with improved load-bearing properties and a mechanically strong interface.

description: An elementary proof of the 3-body Efimov effect is provided in the case of a separable 2-body potential which binds at zero energy a light particle to a heavy one. The proof proceeds by two steps, namely {\it i)} a projection of the Hamiltonian in a subspace and the observation that the projected Hamiltonian generates an arbitrarily large number of bound states, and {\it ii)} a use of the Hylleraas-Undheim theorem to recover the unprojected Hamiltonian. The definition of the projectors we use can include mean field distortions.

description: The quasielastic longitudinal electromagnetic response function R_L is studied within the context of a model that extends our previous investigations of pionic correlations and currents. Four mesons are now employed (pion, rho, sigma and omega, via the Bonn potential) and the many-body dynamics are extended to the full random-phase approximation built upon a Hartree-Fock basis. Wherever possible the Lorentz covariance of the problem is respected. The first three energy-weighted moments of the reduced response are computed, namely, the zeroth moment (Coulomb sum rule), the first moment (related to the position of the quasielastic peak) and the second moment (related to the peak width or variance). We discuss how with a modest downward adjustment of the Fermi momentum it is possible to obtain the expected zeroth and second moments; this implies that the nuclear system has a lower density than that required when using the free relativistic Fermi gas and accordingly that the interaction effects are weaker than one might initially find.

description: Between 2015 and 2018, proton-proton collisions were performed at the highest energy ever achieved in man-made particle accelerators, with the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. This thesis presents measurements performed with the ATLAS detector which fully exploit this energy, of the high momentum production of the most massive fundamental particles known to exist: the top quark and the Higgs boson. Firstly, the differential cross-section of highly boosted top quarks, measured in the lepton+jets channel using the 3.2fb of 13TeV collected in 2015, is presented. Two kinematic properties of the boosted top quark, pT and absolute rapidity, are unfolded to a fiducial volume and compared to a number of state-of-the-art Monte Carlo simulations. Then, using 36fb of data from 2015 and 2016, the search for associated production of a top quark pair with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks is discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the high pT boosted channel, the first time such an analysis has been published by the ATLAS collaboration. A limit of 2.0 times the Standard Model expectation is set on ttHbb production alone, which after combining with analyses in other channels leads to observation of both ttH production and Hbb decay. Finally, a number of optimisations of the boosted ttHbb analysis are presented, in view of a future publication of the combined ttHbb search using the full 140fb of data collected by the end of 2018.

A Search for High-redshift Quasars Among GB/FIRST Flat-Spectrum Radio Sources

description: We present the method and first results of a survey for high-redshift (z>3) radio-loud quasars, which is based on optical identifications of 2902 flat-spectrum radio sources with S(5GHz)>= 25mJy. The radio sample was defined over a 1600 sq degree region using the 5GHz Green Bank survey and the 1.4GHz VLA FIRST survey. 560 sources were identified to a limit of E=19.5 on APM scans of POSS-I plates and 337 of these optical counterparts are unresolved. From these a complete sample of 73 optically red (O-E >= 1.2) sources was defined for spectroscopic follow up. We have obtained spectra for 36 of these and an additional 14 had redshifts in the literature, thus 70% of the spectroscopic sample is completed. Six objects in the sample were found to be radio-loud quasars with z>3 of which two were previously known. The efficiency of the spectroscopic phase of the survey is therefore about 1 in 9. The six z>3 quasars were found in an effective area of 1100 square degrees, implying a surface density of one flat-spectrum z>3 radio-loud quasar per 190 square degrees to limits of E=19.5 and S(5GHz)>= 25mJy. This survey also produced the first known radio-loud BAL quasar, 1556+3517 with z=1.48, which has been reported in an earlier paper (Becker et al 1997). In addition we have obtained spectra of 22 GB/FIRST sources which are not part of the complete sample. We give positions, E (red) magnitudes, O-E colours, radio fluxes, radio spectral index and redshifts where possible for objects for which we have obtained spectra. We give spectra and finding charts for the z>3 quasars. (Abstract abridged)

Year: 2019

description: Metagenomics allows us to study the 99% of microbes that cannot be cultivated in vitro by direct sequencing of their DNA. Our ability to understand and harness the potential of these microbes is limited by our ability to extract their genomic sequences and to assign molecular functions. However, the majority of sequences can neither be assembled into longer contiguous sequences nor annotated. We present three methods that together much alleviate the challenges posed processing metagenomic data. They allow us to not only improve experiment-by-experiment analysis through much deeper annotations but also enable large-scale analyses of hundreds or thousands of data sets through orders of magnitudes speed-up

description: High momentum transfer electrodisintegration of polarized and unpolarized deuterium targets, $d(e,e'p)n$ is studied. We show that the importance of final state interactions-FSI, occuring when a knocked out nucleon interacts with the other nucleon, depends strongly on the momentum of the spectator nucleon. In particular, these FSI occur when the essential contributions to the scattering amplitude arise from internucleon distances $\sim 1.5~fm$. But the absorption of the high momentum $γ^*$ may produce a point like configuration, which evolves with time. In this case, the final state interactions probe the point like configuration at the early stage of its evolution. The result is that significant color transparency effects, which can either enhance or suppress computed cross sections, are predicted to occur for $\sim 4 GeV^2 \ge Q^2\leq~10~(GeV/c)^2$.

description: Deep learning systems extensively use convolution operations to process input data. Though convolution is clearly defined for structured data such as 2D images or 3D volumes, this is not true for other data types such as sparse point clouds. Previous techniques have developed approximations to convolutions for restricted conditions. Unfortunately, their applicability is limited and cannot be used for general point clouds. We propose an efficient and effective method to learn convolutions for non-uniformly sampled point clouds, as they are obtained with modern acquisition techniques. Learning is enabled by four key novelties: first, representing the convolution kernel itself as a multilayer perceptron; second, phrasing convolution as a Monte Carlo integration problem, third, using this notion to combine information from multiple samplings at different levels; and fourth using Poisson disk sampling as a scalable means of hierarchical point cloud learning. The key idea across all these contributions is to guarantee adequate consideration of the underlying non-uniform sample distribution function from a Monte Carlo perspective. To make the proposed concepts applicable to real-world tasks, we furthermore propose an efficient implementation which significantly reduces the GPU memory required during the training process. By employing our method in hierarchical network architectures we can outperform most of the state-of-the-art networks on established point cloud segmentation, classification and normal estimation benchmarks. Furthermore, in contrast to most existing approaches, we also demonstrate the robustness of our method with respect to sampling variations, even when training with uniformly sampled data only. To support the direct application of these concepts, we provide a ready-to-use TensorFlow implementation of these layers at https://github.com/viscom-ulm/MCCNN

description: Late in 2020, two genetically-distinct clusters of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) with mutations of biological concern were reported, one in the United Kingdom and one in South Africa. Using a combination of data from routine surveillance, genomic sequencing and international travel we track the international dispersal of lineages B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 (variant 501Y-V2). We account for potential biases in genomic surveillance efforts by including passenger volumes from location of where the lineage was first reported, London and South Africa respectively. Using the software tool grinch (global report investigating novel coronavirus haplotypes), we track the international spread of lineages of concern with automated daily reports, Further, we have built a custom tracking website (cov-lineages.org/global_report.html) which hosts this daily report and will continue to include novel SARS-CoV-2 lineages of concern as they are detected.

In particular, the IR data go several infrared magnitudes deeper than previous observations and in at least one case reveal the existence of weak objects within the error circles. It is argued, however, that none of the objects is likely to be the binary companion to the X-ray source in that region. These data present severe limits on any possible star or residual envelope at the distances of the respective X-ray objects.

description: We present pp-bremsstrahlung cross section calculations at the $π$-production threshold to search for kinematics that best differentiate model-dependent descriptions of the NN $t$-matrix and accentuate the contributions of isoscalar meson-exchange currents. Existing optimization procedures are shown to be completely unreliable due to the neglect of meson-exchange currents and phase space variations. We show that phase-space hides the most important differences in model $t$-matrices, but that improved data will be critical to further investigations of exchange currents.

description: New energy-density functionals (EDFs) inspired by effective-field theories (EFTs) have been recently proposed. The present work focuses on three of such functionals which were developed to produce satisfactory equations of state for nuclear matter. We aim to extend these functionals to treat finite systems including a spin-orbit contribution and pairing correlations. We illustrate here a first step towards this direction, namely a generalization of such functionals tailored to perform applications to neutron gases confined in harmonic traps. Sets of available \textit{ab initio} results are used as benchmark pseudo-data for adjusting the additional parameters (with respect to the nuclear matter case) that have to be introduced for finite-size systems. Several quantities are predicted and compared to \textit{ab initio} and other EDF results such as, for instance, total energies, potentials, and density profiles. The associated effective masses are also analyzed. In cases where \textit{ab initio} results are available, two of these functionals globally provide predictions which are close one to the other as well as to \textit{ab initio} values. It is shown that, in general, this is not the case for several currently used Skyrme functionals. Directions for improving the third functional are discussed.

description: In this paper we present a detailed study of the radio galaxy J1324-3138, located at a projected distance of 2 arcmin from the centre of the Abell cluster of galaxies A3556, belonging to the core of the Shapley Concentration, at an average redshift z=0.05. We have observed J1324-3138 over a wide range of frequencies: at 327 MHz (VLA), at 843 MHz (MOST), and at 1376 MHz, 2382 MHz, 4790 MHz and 8640 MHz (ATCA). Our analysis suggests that J1324-3138 is a remnant of a tailed radio galaxy, in which the nuclear engine has switched off and the radio source is now at a late stage of its evolution, confined by the intracluster gas. The radio galaxy is not in pressure equilibrium with the external medium, as it is often found for extended radio sources in clusters of galaxies. We favour the hypothesis that the lack of observed polarised radio emission in the source is due to Faraday rotation by a foreground screen, i.e. the source is seen through a dense cluster gas, characterised by a random magnetic field. An implication of the head-tail nature of the source is that J1324-3138 is moving away from the core of A3556 and that possibly a major merging event between the core of A3556 and the subgroup hosting J1324-3138 has already taken place.

description: The calculation of the spreading width of a compound nuclear reaction caused by a symmetry breaking $K$-body force acting in an $A$-body system ($K << A$, usually $K=2$) involves the determination of the local average square matrix element in $A$-body space. This problem is reduced to finding the global mean square matrix element $v^2$ in $K$-body space. The result is a compact formula for the spreading width which contains $v^2$ as an input. Our method is based on the dilute gas approximation for excitons close to the Fermi edge. The relative strength of the contributions of operators with different exciton rank as well as the connection between the energy dependence of the spreading width and the body rank of the underlying interaction are established.

The global structure of galactic discs

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: A statistical study of global galaxy parameters can help to improve our understanding of galaxy formation processes. In this paper we present the analysis of global galaxy parameters based on optical and near-infrared observations of a large sample of edge-on disc galaxies. We found a correlation between the ratio of the radial to vertical scale parameter and galaxy type: galaxies become systematically thinner when going from S0's to Sc's, whereas the distribution seems to level off for later types. The observed scale length ratios (and thus the radial colour gradients) largely represent the galaxies' dust content. On average the colour gradients indicated by the scale length ratios increase from type Sa to at least type Sc. For galaxy types later than Sc, the average colour gradient seems to decrease again. The distribution of K-band (edge-on) disc central surface brightnesses is rather flat, although with a large scatter. However, the latest-type sample galaxies (T > 6) show an indication that their average disc central surface brightnesses may be fainter than those of the earlier types. This effect is probably not the result of dust extinction.

description: Individual levels of impulsivity and anticipated physiological rewards (i.e., thrill) associated with offending have both been recognized as important aspects of the criminal decision-making calculus. However, the extant literature does not have a clear understanding of the dynamics between the two constructs and crime, specifically how physiological rewards matter in the impulsivity-offending relationship. Using the dual-process framework of decision making, this thesis explores first whether impulsivity influence offending indirectly through perceived physiological rewards, and second whether individuals are differentially susceptible to physiological rewards according to their levels of impulsivity (i.e. moderation). These hypotheses are tested using two waves of the Pathways to Desistance study. The results provide support that physiological rewards partially mediate the relationship between impulsivity and offending, yet there is no statistically significant moderating relationship.

description: We develop the Glauber theory description of final-state interaction (FSI) in quasielastic $A(e,e'p)$ scattering. The important new effect is an interaction between the two trajectories which enter the calculation of FSI-distorted one-body density matrix and are connected with incoherent elastic rescatterings of the struck proton on spectator nucleons. We demonstrate that FSI distortions of the missing momentum distribution are large over the whole range of missing momenta. Important finding is that incoherent elastic rescatterings of the ejected proton lead to a strong quantum mechanical distortions of both the longitudinal and transverse missing momentum distributions. It is shown that allowance for finite longitudinal size of the interaction region for proton-nucleon collision neglected in the standard Glauber model drastically affects the theoretical predictions at high longitudinal missing momentum. We also find very large corrections to the missing momentum distribution calculated within the local-density approximation.

Gas-cooling by dust during dynamical fragmentation

description: We suggest that the abrupt switch, from hierarchical clustering on scales larger than 0.04 pc, to binary (and occasionally higher multiple) systems on smaller scales, which Larson has deduced from his analysis of the grouping of pre-Main-Sequence stars in Taurus, arises because pre-protostellar gas becomes thermally coupled to dust at sufficiently high densities. The resulting change from gas-cooling by molecular lines at low densities to gas-cooling by dust at high densities enables the matter to radiate much more efficiently, and hence to undergo dynamical fragmentation. We derive the domain where gas-cooling by dust facilitates dynamical fragmentation. Low-mass (i.e. solar mass) clumps - those supported mainly by thermal pressure - can probably access this domain spontaneously, albeit rather quasistatically, provided they exist in a region where external perturbations are few and far between. More massive clumps probably require an impulsive external perturbation, for instance a supersonic collision with another clump, in order for the gas to reach sufficiently high density to couple thermally to the dust. Impulsive external perturbations should promote fragmentation, by generating highly non-line ar substructures which can then be amplified by gravity during the subsequent collapse.

Quadrupole deformation of deuterons and final state interaction in $^2 \vec H (e,e'p)$ scattering on tensor polarized deuterons at CEBAF energies

description: The strength of final state interaction (FSI) between struck proton and spectator neutron in $^2\vec{H}(e,e'p)$ scattering depends on the alignment of the deuteron. We study the resulting FSI effects in the tensor analyzing power in detail and find substantial FSI effects starting at still low missing momentum $p_m \gsim 0.9 fm^{-1}$. At larger $p_m \gsim 1.5 fm^{-1}$, FSI completely dominates both missing momentum distribution and tensor analyzing power. We find that to a large extent FSI masks the sensitivity of the tensor analyzing power to models of the deuteron wave function. For the transversely polarized deuterons the FSI induced forward-backward asymmetry of the missing momentum distribution is shown to have a node at precisely the same value of $p_m$ as the PWIA missing momentum distribution. The position of this node is not affected by FSI and can be a tool to distinguish experimentally between different models for the deuteron wave function.

The roles of tumour necrosis factor and its receptors in the injury, inflammation and resolution of acute lung injury
Creators: name: Patel, Brijesh
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the intensive care. Despite improvements in intensive care and advances in respiratory support, mortality remains high with no active treatments. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) is a cytokine that has been implicated in ARDS for over 30 years but its precise roles remain elusive. It signals through two main receptors – the p55 TNF receptor and p75 TNF receptor. The first aspect of this thesis investigated the roles of TNF receptors (TNFR) in the early phase of acute acid-induced lung injury. Using genetically modified mice we discovered that alveolar oedema, as a result of acid aspiration, was specifically mediated through the p55-TNFR, whereas, the p75-TNFR promoted a protective effect. Alveolar oedema formation occurred through an effect independent to the downstream inflammatory events, but instead through the activation of TNF/p55-TNFR/caspase-8 death signalling specifically in the alveolar epithelium. Furthermore, this death-signalling axis led to a reduced alveolar epithelial fluid clearance rate. Epithelial dysfunction occurred prior to epithelial cell death and pharmacological blockade of caspase-8 rescued epithelial function with improvements in gas exchange, suggesting that the activation of caspase-8 per se induced this functional deficit in the alveolar epithelium. The second part of the thesis describes the development of a longer-term model of acid aspiration aimed at extending investigation into the later, arguably more clinically relevant, phases of lung injury (0-10 days). Mice showed respiratory physiology that reached clinical ARDS criteria with significant inflammation and epithelial/endothelial injury, which importantly, resolved facilitating investigation into reparative processes. This model was further characterised using novel flow cytometry protocols to examine the compartmental location of leukocytes during the various phases of ARDS. This model provides a translational platform to allow investigation into the injurious, inflammatory, and resolution mechanisms of ARDS.

Plasmonic Nanoantennas for Absorption and Emission Manipulation
Creators: name: Massa, Enrico
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Light manipulation via nanoantennas, especially plasmonic nanoantennas, is an exciting new field, which aims to provide the same benefits at optical frequencies as those given by standard antennas in the radio and microwave frequency regimes. While at lower frequencies metals behave as perfect conductors, with negligible field penetration and absorption, at optical frequencies the electromagnetic field is able to excite plasmons which combine the electromagnetic wave with electronic excitations, giving raise to new properties such as high scattering and field confinement. This thesis focuses on understanding the physical principles of plasmonic nanoantennas and calculating their properties analytically, by deriving the solution for the scattering from cuboidal nanoantennas, and computationally, by presenting an improved discrete dipole approximation on cuboidal point lattices. A theory of scattering from anisotropic particles is derived, showing multiple plasmon resonance and different peaks shifts changing the background index, enabling the study of the magneto-optical effect on nanoparticles, with potential applications in nanospectroscopy, light manipulation and optical sensors. Plasmonic nanoparticles are studied numerically in order to enhance light absorption in thin film silicon solar cells and to enhance the anti-reflection coating properties of triple junction III-V quantum well high efficiency solar cells to increase scattering. Finally, plasmonic nanoantennas are also used experimentally to enhance the photoluminescence and decrease the lifetime of silicon quantum dots for light emitting device applications.

description: Recently, Visual Question Answering (VQA) has emerged as one of the most significant tasks in multimodal learning as it requires understanding both visual and textual modalities. Existing methods mainly rely on extracting image and question features to learn their joint feature embedding via multimodal fusion or attention mechanism. Some recent studies utilize external VQA-independent models to detect candidate entities or attributes in images, which serve as semantic knowledge complementary to the VQA task. However, these candidate entities or attributes might be unrelated to the VQA task and have limited semantic capacities. To better utilize semantic knowledge in images, we propose a novel framework to learn visual relation facts for VQA. Specifically, we build up a Relation-VQA (R-VQA) dataset based on the Visual Genome dataset via a semantic similarity module, in which each data consists of an image, a corresponding question, a correct answer and a supporting relation fact. A well-defined relation detector is then adopted to predict visual question-related relation facts. We further propose a multi-step attention model composed of visual attention and semantic attention sequentially to extract related visual knowledge and semantic knowledge. We conduct comprehensive experiments on the two benchmark datasets, demonstrating that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance and verifying the benefit of considering visual relation facts.
