The cost of increasing carbon stock in a coastal Douglas-fir stand by extending forest rotation
Creators: name: Prilesky, Vojtech
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The effect on climate of extending forest rotations is similar to that of afforestation/reforestation projects. This study attempts to model the opportunity cost that would have to be covered by carbon revenues (ie. „carbon cost‟) to make delayed forest harvest economically viable. This is considered for an even-aged Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stand in coastal British Columbia. Sensitivity of carbon costs to parameters such as site productivity, log prices, discount rates, and risk buffers are examined. Results find that carbon costs for all scenarios rise with greater rotation extensions but eventually “plateau” in the future. Sites of higher productivity have higher carbon costs. Higher log prices also cause carbon costs to rise. Higher discount rates cause carbon costs to rise more quickly with length of rotation extension, but plateau carbon costs do not vary greatly between discount rates. Risk buffers cause carbon costs to rise more than the proportion of the risk buffer. Assuming a market price of $5.00/tCO2e, rotation extensions could only be viable for scenarios with depressed log prices. Short rotation extensions have poor economy of scale and would likely be unable to cover enough of a project‟s fixed costs to make it feasible.

description: Comprehensive testing is needed to ensure that chiplet systems can withstand extreme conditions: Chiplets offer great potential for the automotive and industrial sectors, especially as these applications often have high performance requirements but are needed only in small quantities. The modular principle behind chiplets enables efficient design and production: individual components have to be produced only once and can then be flexibly combined to create tailored solutions. This offers major advantages when it comes to the cost-effective production of high-performance specialized chips. However, using chiplets in these demanding sectors poses particular challenges.
Bridge load rating : is GVW the sole consideration?
Creators: name: Mellstrom, Charlotte
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Load limits on bridges are determined using a design vehicle configuration. This paper examines the maximum shear force and bending moment exerted by different forest vehicles on three bridge lengths. Parameters were inputted into BRIDGEframe software for analysis. Machines that have a different load configuration than the design vehicle can exert a maximum shear force and maximum bending moment that is higher than the design vehicle, even if the GVW is lower. Results show that a professional engineer should be consulted about the safety of the crossing of a vehicle that is significantly different from the design vehicle configuration.

description: The digitization of local government has seen a growing trend towards data networking. Over the past 20 years, “smart cities” and “smart regions” have emerged as a key concept in this trend. Smart cities and smart regions are areas of settlement where highly integrated networking enables the regular use of (ecologically, economically, and socially) sustainable products, services, technologies, processes, and infrastructures. Of enormous importance are the next steps towards a networked, data-centric administration of cities and regions. On the one hand, the use of data-based systems will expand and improve public services and sovereignty over tasks. On the other hand, more and more public and private actors will be involved along the (digital) value chains. Furthermore, the growing need for sustainable and resilient administrations underscores the importance of developing digital tools and solutions for urban and regional development. Finally, these digital solutions will accelerate the transformation of the energy, transport, and infrastructure sectors. This document aims to describe the concepts of data-centric government and the organizational and technical requirements necessary to achieve it. Section 1 provides a general introduction to data-centric government, addressing governance challenges and legal frameworks. Section 2 introduces the Gaia-X initiative, first in general terms and then as a tool to combine data sets and connect data services and facilitate the digital transformation of local government. Section 3 describes the technical aspects of digital transformation in government: from the current use of data to the technological and procedural tools available. The document concludes with four use cases illustrating the benefits of digitization and data orientation for governments.

description: Biochemical processes are fast and occur on small length scales, which makes them difficult to measure. Optical nanosensors based on single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are able to capture such dynamics. They fluoresce in the near-infrared (NIR, 850 3 1700 nm) tissue transparency window and the emission wavelength depends on their chirality. However, NIR imaging requires specialized and cooled InGaAs cameras with low resolution because the quantum yield of normal Si-based cameras rapidly decreases in the NIR. Here, we developed an efficient one-step phase separation approach to isolate monochiral (6,4)-SWCNTs (880 nm emission) from mixed SWCNT samples. It enabled us to image them in the NIR with high resolution standard Si-based cameras (>50 x more pixels). (6,4)-SWCNTs modified with (GT)10-ssDNA become highly sensitive for the important neurotransmitter dopamine. These sensors are 1.7-fold brighter and 7.5 x more sensitive and allow fast imaging (< 50 ms). They enable high-resolution imaging of dopamine release from cells. Thus, the assembly of biosensors from (6,4)-SWCNTs combines the advantages of nanosensors working in the NIR with the sensitivity of (Si-based) cameras and enables broad usage of these nanomaterials.

description: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) require large amounts of annotated training data for a good performance. Often this data is generated using manual labeling (error-prone and time-consuming) or rendering (requiring geometry and material information). Both approaches make it difficult or uneconomic to apply them to many small-scale applications. A fast and straightforward approach of acquiring the necessary training data would allow the adoption of deep learning to even the smallest of applications. Chroma keying is the process of replacing a color (usually blue or green) with another background. Instead of chroma keying, we propose luminance keying for fast and straightforward training image acquisition. We deploy a black screen with high light absorption (99.99%) to record roughly 1-minute long videos of our target objects, circumventing typical problems of chroma keying, such as color bleeding or color overlap between background color and object color. Next we automatically mask our objects using simple brightness thresholding, saving the need for manual annotation. Finally, we automatically place the objects on random backgrounds and train a 2D object detector. We do extensive evaluation of the performance on the widely-used YCB-V object set and compare favourably to other conventional techniques such as rendering, without needing 3D meshes, materials or any other information of our target objects and in a fraction of the time needed for other approaches. Our work demonstrates highly accurate training data acquisition allowing to start training state-of-the-art networks within minutes.

description: This paper presents novel methods for optimizing multi-controlled quantum gates, which naturally arise in high-level quantum programming. Our primary approach involves rewriting $U(2)$ gates as $SU(2)$ gates, utilizing one auxiliary qubit for phase correction. This reduces the number of CNOT gates required to decompose any multi-controlled quantum gate from $O(n^2)$ to at most $32n$. Additionally, we can reduce the number of CNOTs for multi-controlled Pauli gates from $16n$ to $12n$ and propose an optimization to reduce the number of controlled gates in high-level quantum programming. We have implemented these optimizations in the Ket quantum programming platform and demonstrated significant reductions in the number of gates. For instance, for a Grover's algorithm layer with 114 qubits, we achieved a reduction in the number of CNOTs from 101,252 to 2,684. This reduction in the number of gates significantly impacts the execution time of quantum algorithms, thereby enhancing the feasibility of executing them on NISQ computers.

The technological and managerial history of innovation in British Columbia’s forest industry
Creators: name: Wildeman, Jesse
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The forestry industry in British Columbia has undergone many changes throughout its existence. It has evolved from simple coastal logging operations to become a highly regulated and commercialized process spanning across the province. Technological and managerial innovations have played a dominant role in shaping progress in the industry. Innovation made the industry more efficient, allowed logging to take place where previously impossible, and developed new ways to manage the landscape and the changing values on it. This essay will examine the history of technological and managerial progression in BC, how and when it occurred, as well as how it affected the industry. The paper will conclude with some thoughts on the future direction of forestry in the province.

description: In this paper, a methodical approach to evaluate the potential of quantum computing for manufacturing simulation, using the example of multi-axis milling of thin-walled aerospace components, is discussed. A developed approach for identifying bottlenecks in manufacturing simulations, for which the application of quantum computing potentially provides a speed-up or increase in accuracy, is presented. Moreover, indicators of quantum computing suitability and feasibility are defined with the main objective of identifying whether a manufacturing simulation bottleneck is suitable for quantum computing applications. First results of testing a hybrid routine as an application approach for the milling dynamics simulation on quantum machines are presented.

description: Das Konzept des Digitalen Zwillings als Abbild eines physischen Gegenstücks befindet sich zurzeit in der Entwicklung und liefert erste vielversprechende Ergebnisse. Gleichzeitig unterscheiden sich die Ziele und die Definition Digitaler Zwillinge abhängig von Anwendungsbereich und Anwendungsfall teils deutlich voneinander. Die Beschreibungen und Konzepte Digitaler Zwillinge einer konkreten Anwendung lassen sich deshalb nicht einfach auf neue Anwendungsfelder übertragen. Unterdessen ist die Batteriezellfertigung eine Schlüsseltechnologie der Energie- und Mobilitätswende, die noch immer von hohen Kosten sowie Ausschussraten geprägt ist und enorm vom Einsatz Digitaler Zwillinge profitieren wird. Um eine Grundlage für die Entwicklung Digitaler Zwillinge in der Batteriezellfertigung zu schaffen, zeigt dieses Whitepaper, basierend auf bestehenden Arbeiten, eine einheitliche Definition für den Digitalen Zwilling in der Batteriezellfertigung auf. Dafür wurden drei Ausprägungen des Digitalen Zwillings identifiziert: der Gebäudezwilling, der Anlagenzwilling und der Produktzwilling. Jede dieser Ausprägungen gilt es im Detail zu betrachten, sodass Bestandteile der jeweiligen Ausprägungsformen identifiziert, exemplarische Anwendungsfälle aufgezeigt und konkrete Ziele und Herausforderungen definiert werden können. Basierend auf den in diesem Whitepaper beschriebenen Konzepten dient der Digitale Zwilling in der Batteriezellfertigung zukünftig zur Nachverfolgung, Optimierung und Steuerung von Produkten und Prozessen. Dies kann perspektivisch die Energie-, Rohstoff- und Kosteneffizienz in diesem wichtigen Zukunftsbereich deutlich verbessern.

description: Faraday tomography of broadband radio polarization surveys enables us to study magnetic fields and their interaction with the interstellar medium (ISM). Such surveys include the Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS), which covers the northern and southern hemispheres at $\sim$ 300-1800 MHz.
 In this work, we used the GMIMS High Band South (1328-1768 MHz), also named the Southern Twenty-centimeter All-sky Polarization Survey (STAPS), which observes the southern sky at a resolution of 18$\arcmin$.
 To extract the key parameters of the magnetized ISM from STAPS, we computed the Faraday moments of the tomographic data cubes. These moments include the total polarized intensity, the mean Faraday depth weighted by the polarized intensity, the weighted dispersion of the Faraday spectrum, and its skewness. We compared the Faraday moments to those calculated over the same frequency range in the northern sky (using the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory, DRAO), in a strip of $360\degr \times 30\degr$ that overlaps with STAPS coverage.
 We find that the total polarized intensity is generally dominated by diffuse emission that decreases at longitudes of $l \leq 300\degr$. The Faraday moments reveal a variety of polarization structures. Low-intensity regions at high latitudes usually have a single Faraday depth component. Due to its insufficiently large frequency coverage, STAPS cannot detect Faraday thick structures. Comparing the Faraday depths from STAPS to total rotation measures from extragalactic sources suggests that STAPS frequencies are high enough that the intervening ISM causes depolarization to background emission at intermediate and high Galactic latitudes. Where they overlap, the STAPS and DRAO surveys exhibit broad correspondence but differ in polarized intensity by a factor of $\sim$1.8.

In this paper, for $p=5$ and $7$, we prove special vanishing properties of the Kloosterman sums appearing in the exact formulae. These vanishing properties imply a new proof of Dyson's rank conjectures. Specifically, we give a new proof of Ramanujan's congruences $p(5n+4)\equiv 0\pmod 5$ and $p(7n+5)\equiv 0\pmod 7$.

Remarks.
The key characteristic of L. longiphialidum was its independent, columnar shape and the presence of narrow or fusiform spores. Phylogenetic analyses showed that L. longiphialidum belonged to the Leptobacillium clade and was closest to L. marksiae. However, the host and collection sites of L. longiphialidum were spiders and China, respectively and the host and collection sites of L. marksiae were an unidentified dead insect and Queensland, Australia, respectively. L. longiphialidum and L. marksiae were distinguished by genetic distance. (Table 3).

description: Machine learning based anomaly detection methods on process data can be used to secure critical infrastructure. The design and installation of these methods require detailed understanding of both the facilities and the machine learning methods. Therefore, they are mostly incomprehensible for non-experts and thus acting as a barrier hindering the fast spread of such technologies. This article presents the systematic development of a demonstrator which enables presentations of anomaly detection on the example of a simulated wind farm. The specially designed user-interface allows a comprehensive experience. This article documents the use of the demonstrator for experts experienced in energy systems which are interested in the application of machine learning algorithms.

description: In diesem Whitepaper fokussieren wir uns auf die KI-Verordnung nicht erfasste freiwillige Zertifizierung. Dabei stehen die Interessen und Sichtweisen der Verbraucher*innen im Vordergrund. Als Verbraucher*innen betrachten wir nicht nur die unmittelbaren Nutzer*innen von KI-Systemen, sondern auch Privatpersonen, die indirekt von KI-Ergebnissen betroffen sein können. Zudem berücksichtigen wir Menschen in der Rolle als souveräne Datensubjekte, deren personenbezogene Daten in die Entwicklung von KI-Systemen einfließen. Dieses breite Verständnis des Verbraucher*innenbegriffs entspricht dem Selbstverständnis des Zentrums für vertrauenswürdige Künstliche Intelligenz (ZVKI). Wir stellen Thesen auf, wie freiwillige Zertifizierungen von KI-Systemen für Verbraucher*innen nützlich sein können. Die im Verlauf vorgestellten und begründeten acht Thesen wurden in einer Reihe von interdisziplinären Workshops erarbeitet. Dabei identifizierten wir Herausforderungen einer KI-Zertifizierung aus Verbraucher*innensicht und präzisierten diese iterativ. Die Gruppendiskussionen dienten als Grundlage dieses Whitepapers und bauten auf Erkenntnissen der Fach-Arbeitsgruppe „KI Zertifizierung“ des ZVKI auf. Alle Co-Autor*innen waren an der Erstellung des finalen Texts beteiligt. Die aufgestellten Thesen thematisieren grundlegende Anforderungen an eine KI-Zertifizierung aus einer übergeordneten Perspektive, unabhängig von den spezifischen Details einer KI-Anwendung. Somit liefern sie keine Aussagen zu konkreten Inhalten der Zertifizierung. Detaillierte Empfehlungen setzen eine umfassende Analyse von Einsatzfällen voraus, die in diesem Rahmen nicht geleistet werden kann.

description: Das Whitepaper gibt einen Überblick über das Thema Data Pooling und betrachtet Anwendungen und Einsatzmöglichkeiten von künstlicher Intelligenz in diesem Kontext. Die Digitalisierung hat zu einem enormen Anstieg des Umfangs und der Vielfalt verfügbarer Daten geführt. Unternehmen, Institutionen und Individuen nutzen und verwerten Daten nun auf neue Weise. Die nahtlose Verbindung früher getrennter Prozesse über digitale Technologien ermöglicht die Entwicklung neuer digitaler Service-Produkte und verändert die industriellen Wertschöpfungsketten. Gleichzeitig steigt die Anzahl der verfügbaren Daten exponentiell entlang organisatorischer Leistungsprozesse. Trotz der Fülle an Daten und den damit verbundenen Potenzialen stehen der effektiven Nutzung und dem reibungslosen Austausch von Daten in der Praxis zahlreiche Herausforderungen entgegen. Eine zentrale Herausforderung betrifft die Verwaltung, Zugänglichkeit und Verwertung von Daten. Data Pooling und Data-Sharing-Plattformen werden als vielversprechende Lösungsansätze betrachtet, um diese Herausforderungen zu bewältigen. Diese Plattformen ermöglichen das Zusammenlegen und gemeinsame Nutzen von Daten aus verschiedenen Quellen. Das Whitepaper stellt die wichtigsten Anforderungen, Bestandteile und Wertversprechen einer Data-Sharing-Plattform dar und beschreibt deren Eignung für potenzielle Interessenten, insbesondere Unternehmen. Es wird auch erläutert, welche Merkmale von Data-Sharing-Plattformen für Gruppen oder Organisationen mit einem breiten Datenbestand von besonderer Relevanz sein könnten.

description: Mit dem zukünftig starken Anstieg der Elektromobilität wird die Vermeidung von Stromnetzengpässen durch netzdienliches Laden an Bedeutung gewinnen. In diesem Beitrag werden das ökonomische Potenzial und die regulatorischen Anreize für netzdienliches Laden untersucht. Eine exemplarische Netzsimulation für ein Netzgebiet im Großraum Dresden zeigt, dass durch netzdienliches Laden mehr als 50 % der durch Elektromobilität verursachten Netzausbaukosten bis 2030 eingespart werden können. In absoluter Betrachtung sind die Einsparungen jedoch gering. Die geplanten Regelungen zu § 14a EnWG sehen für steuerbare Verbrauchseinrichtungen auf der Niederspannungsebene finanzielle Anreize in Form von Netzentgeltreduktionen vor. Bei einer direkten Übertragung auf die Mittelspannungsebene erscheinen die Anreize für Netzdienlichkeit deutlich zu hoch. Vor allem würde eine vergleichbar, bundesweit einheitliche Berechnung der Förderhöhe den unterschiedlichen Netzsituationen und monetären Nutzen der Netzdienlichkeit nicht gerecht werden. Um Fehlanreize zu vermeiden, sollte die Höhe der Netzentgeltreduktionen stärker durch den Netzbetreiber steuerbar sein.

description: The realization of a circular economy for lithium-ion batteries demands technological advancements capable of performing diagnosis on end-of-life batteries. This will ensure improvement of the life cycle performance of battery systems, considering the most diverse value chains. A key challenge is considering the variety of battery conditions at their end-of-life and the multiple reuse options in second-life applications. This paper presents the different approaches of software-based State of Health (SOH) determination and remaining useful life (RUL) prediction on battery cells. This includes the use and performance comparison of classical regression methods, machine learning regression methods and physical battery models in determining the SOH and degradation process of battery cells. In addition, we consider the resulting RUL conditions of typical second-life applications of electric vehicles (EVs), forklifts, grid stabilisation storage systems, and home storage systems. These results enable the selection and use of electrical and software characterisation methods for efficient battery management diagnostics and end-of-life characterisation.

Climate change and the implications for forest fires in British Columbia
Creators: name: Bennett, Curtis

description: British Columbia has engaged in fire suppression techniques since 1912 (British Columbia Forest Service, 2010). As a result large amounts of fuel build-up have resulted in many areas of our forests which must be managed. Climate change is expected to create a number of changes for the characteristics of our environment. These changes will alter how forest fire regimes interact with the landscape and the forest fuels upon them. Forest fire management will need to adapt to the changing fire disturbance regimes and as such I have made the following recommendations: - More intensive mapping of forest fire disturbance regimes. - Investigation of new management strategies for forest fuels. - Utilization of different tactics such as: o Prescribed burning o Assisted migration - Practice "Adaptive Management" to provide flexibility against changing future conditions. - Create Policy guidelines which will assist fuel management operations across the landscape. - Due to the large role of Carbon emissions in forest fire management, Carbon management should be integrated with fuel management plans. I believe that these steps will allow fire management in British Columbia to more easily cope with the implications of climate change.

description: Optical sensors/probes are powerful tools to identify and image (biological) molecules. Because of their optoelectronic properties, nanomaterials are often used as building blocks. Such nanosensors are assembled from an optically sensitive nanomaterial, a (biological) recognition unit, and linker chemistry that connects them. To transduce the chemical interaction with the analyte into an optical signal, the interplay between surface chemistry and nanomaterial photophysics has to be optimized. Understanding these aspects promises major opportunities for tailored sensors with optimal performance. However, this requires methods to create and explore the wide range of possible chemical permutations. Indeed, many current approaches are limited in throughput. This affects the chemical design space that can be studied, the application of machine learning approaches as well as fundamental mechanistic understanding. Here, we provide an overview of selection-limited and synthesis-limited approaches to create and identify molecular nanosensors. We discuss bottlenecks and highlight opportunities of non-classical recognition strategies such as corona phase molecular recognition as well as the requirements for high throughput and scalability. Fluorescent carbon nanotubes are powerful building blocks for sensors and their huge chemical design space makes them an ideal platform for high throughput approaches. Therefore, they are the focus of this article, but the insights are transferable to any nanosensor system. Overall, this perspective aims to provide a fresh perspective to overcome current challenges in the nanosensor field.
Pioneering Situation-aware Autonomy and Safety for Off-Highway Machinery in Unpredictable Terrain
Creators: name: Wolf, Patrick

Year: 2024

description: A limiting factor for the large-scale deployment of autonomous off-road machinery is the lack of reliability and proof of safety. Assuring these aspects is not just complex but hard, and remains an open research topic: Off-road domains are frequently changing, and the overall variability prevents the consideration of every important aspect of the environment or situation during the development phase. In contrast, humans are extremely capable of adapting to unforeseen events and acting safely under such uncertainty. A common strategy is therefore to adopt biology-inspired methods, like implementing human-like cognition and reasoning, to maintain safety.

A Plague Tale: Das Wechselspiel zwischen Eutopie und Dystopie am Beispiel des La Cuna Kults
Creators: name: Müller-Laackman, Jonas
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Im Verlauf des Spiels “A Plague Tale: Requiem” landen die Hauptcharaktere auf der Insel La Cuna, die zunächst als fundamentaler Gegenentwurf zum düsteren Festland inszeniert wird. Strahlende Mittelmeersonne, feiernde Menschen, Blumen und Dekoration überall. Während die Protagonist:innen auf dem Festland pausenlos verfolgt werden, scheint die Insel ein eutopisch-feudales Paradies und ein mögliches Ende der ständigen Flucht zu bieten - eine wahre, wortwörtlich utopisch-eutopische Lacuna in der düsteren Welt von “A Plague Tale”. Doch nicht lang und ein apokalyptisches (enthüllendes) Ereignis lässt die eutopische Hoffnung in ein dystopisches Szenario zusammenfallen.

In meinem Beitrag möchte ich die Entwicklung skizzieren, wie das sinuskurvenartige Spiel von Eutopie und Dystopie sich einerseits – unterstützt durch Sounddesign, visueller Präsentation, Gameplay und dem stetigen Bezug zu realweltlichen, historischen Ereignissen - in den Elementen von Flucht und Zuflucht über die gesamte Erzählung von „A Plague Tale“ erstreckt. Andererseits erreicht die Amplitude dieser frequenten Entwicklung gerade in den Episoden auf La Cuna ihren eschatologischen Höhepunkt. Dieser Abschnitt steht wie kaum ein anderer für das Wechselspiel der Utopien und zeigt die narrative Struktur aus eu- und dystopischen Szenen anhand der Ereignisse rund um den Inselkult und das Menetekel der Ankunft von Hugo und Amicia. 

Ich möchte diskutieren, wie in den Kapiteln auf La Cuna gebündelt Fiktion und Historizität, Glaube und (fiktive) Realität, Eutopie und Dystopie, sowie apokalyptischer Kataklysmus ineinander verwoben und auf die Spitze getrieben werden. Die verschiedenen Utopien – positiv wie negativ – fallen so übertragen wie wortwörtlich zusammen, und stehen stellvertretend für die Art und Weise, wie im gesamten Spielverlauf aus (fast) jeder Zuflucht (Eutopie) wieder eine Flucht (Dystopie) wird.
