Corneal visualization and characterization for applications in ophthalmology using optical imaging
Creators: name: Lai, Tom Yu Chia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are two modalities suitable for imaging corneas. MPM is a nonlinear optical imaging technique that has sub-micron spatial resolution, deep penetration, and excellent optical-sectioning capability. It can detect two contrasts simultaneously: two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) and second harmonic generation (SHG). TPEF and SHG are used to visualize cells and collagen fibers, respectively. On the other hand, OCT is based on the detection of single-backscattered light using interferometry principles. Generally, it has micrometer-resolution and up to a few millimeters of imaging-depth. Combining MPM and OCT for corneal imaging is intuitive in the current study as the complementary information obtained from cornea helps us to understand the morphological and physiological status of the cornea. Furthermore, the MPM and OCT images can be used to quantitatively characterize the thicknesses and refractive index (RI) of the major corneal layers. The visualization of the corneal morphology is important in ophthalmology. It can be used to: study the effects of contact lens wear and topical medications; diagnose corneal diseases such as infectious keratitis; and observe corneal ulcers, and keratoconous. In addition, the ability to quantitatively characterize the corneal thickness and RI is valuable for many ophthalmologic applications. These two parameters are useful for laser refractive surgeries, and the diagnosis of corneal degeneration, and endothelial dysfunction. They are also linked to other important parameters such as corneal hydration and intraocular pressure. In this thesis, the capabilities of a combined MPM and OCT system for corneal imaging are demonstrated. Firstly, it is used to simultaneously visualize and compare the morphology, and to characterize the thicknesses and the RI of five different species’ corneas. In order to visualize the thicker tissues, the OCT modality is altered in two ways: a prism-based hardware dispersion balancing unit is added to minimize the dispersion mismatch in OCT; and an additional OCT configuration of objective lens and spectrometer setup was introduced. Secondly, the combined system is used to identify an induced parasitic infection in human corneas. The study serves as an important step forward to bring the combined MPM and OCT technology to clinical settings.

description: ''Teşkilat-ı Mahsusa'' (TM), or Special Organization, was a secret paramilitary intelligence organization under the control of the CUP’s inner circle and attached to the Ministry of War. Due to its secrecy, the TM is debated in the scholarship. This article explores two main approaches to understanding the TM as a modern intelligence agency, an institutional organization within the Ottoman state, and a semi-official vigilant band [''çete'']. This article analyzes the TM from its foundation in late 1913 to its enlargement in August 1914 and its reorganization into the Office for Eastern Affairs [OEA, ''Umur-i Şarkiye''] in 1915 until the end of World War I.

description: We study the electronic transport properties of dual-gated bilayer graphene devices. We focus on the regime of low temperatures and high electric displacement fields, where we observe a clear exponential dependence of the resistance as a function of displacement field and density, accompanied by a strong non-linear behavior in the transport characteristics. The effective transport gap is typically two orders of magnitude smaller than the optical band gaps reported by infrared spectroscopy studies. Detailed temperature dependence measurements shed light on the different transport mechanisms in different temperature regimes.

Determination of lysine requirements in healthy pregnant women using the indicator amino acid oxidation technique
Creators: name: Payne, Magdalene
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Perinatal nutrient status influences the health of both mother and child. Lysine, an essential amino acid found mainly in animal derived products, is the first limiting amino acid in plant proteins. Inadequate lysine intakes during pregnancy may impact foetal health in both the short and long-term. Current Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI) recommendations extrapolate lysine requirements during pregnancy from non-pregnant adult data and may underestimate true requirements. Moreover, these recommendations remain constant throughout pregnancy and do not reflect the dynamic metabolic adaptations that occur during gestation. This study aims to define a quantitative lysine requirement in healthy pregnant women and to determine whether lysine requirements vary between phases of gestation. Two phases of pregnancy (early gestation, 12-19 weeks; late gestation, 33-39 weeks) were studied using the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique. Pregnant women (22-36y) consumed a diet containing a random lysine intake (range = 6 - 86 mg/kg/d) in a crystalline amino acid mixture based on egg protein profile. Diets were isonitrogenous with caloric and protein intakes maintained at 1.7 x resting energy expenditure and 1.5g/kg/d, respectively. Breath and urine samples were collected at baseline and isotopic steady state. Lysine requirements were determined by measuring oxidation of L-[1-¹³C]-phenylalanine to ¹³CO₂ (F¹³CO₂). Bi-phase linear regression crossover analysis was used to determine a breakpoint (estimated average requirement, EAR) in F¹³C₂ data. The breakpoint in early gestation (n=27) was determined to be 36.6 mg/kg/d (r² = 0.484, Upper 95% CI = 46.2), similar to current non-pregnant recommendations of 41mg/kg/d. The breakpoint in late gestation (n=36) was determined to be 50.3 mg/kg/d (r² = 0.664, Upper 95% CI = 60.4), and 25% higher than current DRI recommendations of 41 mg/kg/d. Urinary phenylalanine flux did not change in both early and late gestation due to lysine intake. These data are the first to directly define a quantitative requirement for lysine during human pregnancy and to account for gestational age, describing an increase in requirement as pregnancy progresses. We expect these results will have significant implications for setting recommendations globally where plant based diets are the primary source of protein and amino acids.

description: The data set provided is a degradation of an LGHE4 18650 battery cell data set. It consists of 30 cells that have undergone cyclic degradation at different stress factors. Temperatures of 25°C, 45°C and 23°C, Depth of Discharges of 100%, 30% and 70%, and mean State-of-Charges (SOC) of 50%, 35%, and 65% were the used stress factors. Two of the cells are aged with dynamic profiles deduced from the Federal Urban Driving Schedule (FUDS) using the Random Pulse Method. The cycling of the cells is interrupted every 10 full cycle equivalents for a capacity check and irregularly for a general check-up consisting of a capacity check, an open circuit voltage measurement and pulse tests at different SOCs. The check-ups are measured at the specific ageing temperature. The data set is especially useful for developing SOC and State-of-Health (SOH) algorithms because it includes two dynamically aged cells.

description: This article explores the nature of propaganda in those South East European states and territories that participated in the First World War, specifically Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, and Yugoslav separatists from the Habsburg Monarchy. During this period, propaganda essentially represented a continuation of pre-existing ideological narratives, often centred on shared notions of ethno-national unity through territorial aggrandizement or secession. However, the widely differing war aims among regional parties resulted in these narratives becoming increasingly dominated by the war’s more immediate political contexts or specific domestic concerns. This growing divergence was accentuated by the diversity of wartime experiences, such as foreign occupation or internal division, among the belligerents. Nevertheless, a number of thematic similarities existed around narratives of honour, sacrifice, and national defence.

description: In probability density function (PDF) methods of turbulent flows, the joint PDF of several flow variables is computed by numerically integrating a system of stochastic differential equations for Lagrangian particles. A mathematically exact treatment of advection, viscous effects and arbitrarily complex chemical reactions is possible; these processes are treated without closure assumptions. A set of algorithms is proposed to provide an efficient solution of the PDF transport equation modeling the joint PDF of turbulent velocity, frequency and concentration of a passive scalar in geometrically complex configurations. An unstructured Eulerian grid is employed to extract Eulerian statistics, to solve for quantities represented at fixed locations of the domain and to track particles. All three aspects regarding the grid make use of the finite element method. Compared to hybrid methods, the current methodology is stand-alone, therefore it is consistent both numerically and at the level of turbulence closure without the use of consistency conditions. Several newly developed algorithms are described that facilitate the numerical solution in complex flow geometries, including a stabilized mean-pressure projection scheme, the estimation of conditional and unconditional Eulerian statistics and their derivatives from stochastic particle fields, particle tracking through unstructured grids, an efficient particle redistribution procedure and techniques related to efficient random number generation. The solver has been parallelized and optimized for shared memory and multi-core architectures using the OpenMP standard. Relevant aspects of performance and parallelism on cache-based shared memory machines are discussed and presented in detail. The methodology shows great promise in the simulation of high-Reynolds-number incompressible inert or reactive turbulent flows in realistic configurations.

description: The end of fighting in 1918 raised hopes for swift and equitable military demobilization amongst soldiers and civilians. The timing and nature of demobilization varied greatly, though, due to practical constraints. Colonial soldiers came last in this waiting game. Wars after the war remobilized others. Demobilization – a massive logistical process – had social, economic, and cultural dimensions. The crystallization of myths within “cultures of defeat” perpetuated wartime enmity or recast it as hatred of the treacherous “enemy within”. The 1920s, in contrast, also saw the gradual emergence of cultural demobilization and internationalism as alternative validations of wartime sacrifice and the weight of mourning.

description: Ce mémoire de type recherche-création cherche à analyser comment certaines productions théâtrales professionnelles utilisent des outils technologiques de pointe afin de créer des effets esthétiques, pour ensuite tenter de les reproduire avec des technologies du quotidien que nous sommes plusieurs à posséder à la maison tels le téléphone intelligent, le haut-parleur bluetooth ou le projecteur lors de laboratoire de création. Le projet s’inscrit dans un contexte social où les technologies s’intègrent de plus en plus à notre vie domestique en se diversifiant davantage pour répondre à nos besoins et nous divertir. Alors que nous sommes entourés de ces machines, qui pour la plupart peuvent être mises en réseau, ce projet souhaite explorer comment ces objets technologiques du quotidien peuvent soutenir une création artistique, théâtrale en l’occurrence. Cette recherche propose de construire les fondements d’un savoir dans l’intégration des technologies du quotidien par le biais d’explorations qui tenteront de recréer les effets obtenus dans les spectacles à l’étude, mais avec les technologies qui peuvent être retrouvées dans plusieurs foyers occidentaux. La partie théorique de cette recherche s’articule autour de trois pôles conceptuels clés, c’est-à-dire l’intermédialité qui théorise les relations entre les médias, le solomachine qui sous-tend un jeu entre l’acteur, sa machine et le spectateur et finalement la figure du conteur qui manipule le récit ainsi que les outils permettant de le raconter. Dans le cadre de cette recherche, le conte du petit Chaperon rouge revisité par Joël Pommerat a servi de base textuelle commune aux explorations. Deux laboratoires de créations ont donné lieu à une quinzaine d’explorations expérimentant chacune des techniques pour intégrer les technologies du quotidien dans une scène théâtrale. Le résultat des laboratoires résume les points forts, les points faibles ainsi que les pistes d’exploration futures de chacune des techniques expérimentées.

description: We study the feasibility of short finite impulse response (FIR) synthesis for perfect reconstruction (PR) in generic FIR filter banks. Among all PR synthesis banks, we focus on the one with the minimum filter length. For filter banks with oversampling factors of at least two, we provide prescriptions for the shortest filter length of the synthesis bank that would guarantee PR almost surely. The prescribed length is as short or shorter than the analysis filters and has an approximate inverse relationship with the oversampling factor. Our results are in form of necessary and sufficient statements that hold generically, hence only fail for elaborately-designed nongeneric examples. We provide extensive numerical verification of the theoretical results and demonstrate that the gap between the derived filter length prescriptions and the true minimum is small. The results have potential applications in synthesis FB design problems, where the analysis bank is given, and for analysis of fundamental limitations in blind signals reconstruction from data collected by unknown subsampled multi-channel systems.

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: We study the superfluid state of two-species heteronuclear Fermi gases with isotropic contact and anisotropic long-range dipolar interactions. By explicitly taking account of Fock exchange contribution, we derive self-consistent equations describing the pairing states in the system. Exploiting the symmetry of the system, we developed an efficient way of solving the self-consistent equations by exploiting the symmetries. We find that the temperature tends to increase the anisotropy of the pairing state, which is rather counterintuitive. We study the anisotropic properties of the system by examining the angular dependence of the number density distribution, the excitation spectrum and the pair correlation function. The competing effects of the contact interaction and the dipolar interaction upon the anisotropy are revealed. We derive and compute the superfluid mass density $ρ_{ij}$ for the system. Astonishingly, we find that $ρ_{zz}$ becomes negative above some certain temperature $T^*$($T

Replicate divergence between and within sounds in a marine fish : the Copper Rockfish (Sebastes caurinus)
Creators: name: Dick, Stefan James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Understanding the factors that influence larval dispersal and connectivity among marine populations is critical to the conservation and sustainable management of marine resources. Whereas marine populations were once thought to be panmictic through extensive larval exchange, recent studies are increasingly uncovering fine-scale substructure driven by contemporary features of the seascape such as coastal topography, bathymetry, and nearshore currents. In this study I tested the degree of genetic subdivision among ten populations of copper rockfish (Sebastes caurinus) representing paired samples collected from inlets and adjacent outer coast habitats in five replicate sounds on the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, using 17 microsatellite DNA loci. Overall, subdivision (FST) was low (FST = 0.031), but consistently higher between paired inlet and coast sites (mean FST = 0.047) compared to among the five coast sites (FST = -0.001) or among the five inlet sites (FST = 0.026). Heterozygosity, allelic richness, and estimates of effective population size were also consistently lower in inlet sites, suggesting local inbreeding due to limited larval delivery from coastal habitats. Bayesian analysis of population structure identified two genetic groups across all samples, a single genetic group amongst only coast sites, two genetic groups amongst only inlet sites, and two genetic groups within each sound analysed separately. Copper rockfish collected from inlets were also consistently shorter, had lower condition factors, and grew more slowly than fish collected from coast sites. My results implicate inlet-coast seascape transitions in driving the evolution of population structure, likely resulting from inlet topography and estuarine circulation patterns that act to retain pelagic larvae within inlets and reduce physical connectivity with coastal habitats. Phenotypic differences between inlet and coast fish suggest differential growth environments across the inlet-coast seascape transition, which may promote genetic differentiation through selection against maladapted immigrant genotypes. Coast sites appear to be well served by the existing Rockfish Conservation Areas (RCAs), which have a coastally biased distribution. By contrast, inlet sites may require more specific local conservation measures as they appear to be less well connected to adjacent coast sites and may be more susceptible to overexploitation.

description: Assuming that in the hot dense matter produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the energy density, entropy density, and pressure as well as the azimuthal and space-time rapidity components of the shear tensor are uniform in the direction transversal to the reaction plane, we derive a set of schematic equations from the Isreal-Stewart causal viscous hydrodynamics. These equations are then used to describe the evolution dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions by taking the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio of $1/4π$ for the initial quark-gluon plasma (QGP) phase and of ten times this value for the later hadron-gas (HG) phase. Using the production rate evaluated with particle distributions that take into account the viscous effect, we study dilepton production in central heavy-ion collisions. Compared with results from the ideal hydrodynamics, we find that although the dilepton invariant mass spectra from the two approaches are similar, the transverse momentum spectra are significantly enhanced at high transverse momenta by the viscous effect. We also study the transverse momentum dependence of dileptons produced from QGP for a fixed transverse mass which is essentially absent in the ideal hydrodynamics, and find that this so-called transverse mass scaling is violated in the viscous hydrodynamics, particularly at high transverse momenta.

Rheology of pastes : effects of fibrillation, thixotropy and structure
Creators: name: Anvari Ardakani, Hesam
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Three different pastes (toothpaste, PTFE paste that is mixture of polytetrafluoroethylene of submicron size particles with a liquid lubricant, and chocolate) are investigated in this thesis as model paste systems to study their processing characteristics in capillary flow using various dies. The rheological behaviour of toothpaste and melt chocolate paste is identified as that of a yield-stress, thixotropic material with a time-dependent behaviour. The rheological data obtained from a parallel-disk were used to formulate a constitutive equation with a structural parameter which obeys a kinetic equation, typically used to model thixotropy. For semi-solid paste extrusion (PTFE paste and solid chocolate), a simple phenomenological mathematical model is developed. The model takes into account the elastic-plastic (strain hardening) and viscous nature of the material in its non-melt state. In addition, it takes into account the slip boundary condition at the paste/wall interface. To study scale-up possibilities, the rheology of non-melt processible polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pastes is studied using three capillary rheometers having barrels of different diameter and equipped with capillary dies of various designs. The effects of process conditions on fibrillation and mechanical properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) paste extrudates are also studied. To describe the effects of die design on the quality of the final product, a basic phenomenological mathematical model is developed. The model consists of a simple equation that explains fibril formation, due to the compression of PTFE resins, plus a kinetic equation, which is coupled with the “radial-flow” hypothesis to predict the structure and the tensile strength of extrudates. Model predictions for structural parameter compared with the tensile strength measurements, have shown a good qualitative agreement. For all paste systems, the pressure drop is measured as a function of apparent shear rate (flow rate), reduction ratio (cross sectional area of barrel to that of die), contraction angle, length-to-diameter ratio, and diameter of the barrel (scale-up). In all cases, model shown to have coefficient of determination (R2) above 0.84. Finally, extrusion pressure predictions based on the proposed models are compared with the experimental data obtained from macroscopic pressure drop measurements and are found to be consistent.
A statistical study of the mass and density structure of Infrared Dark Clouds

description: How and when the mass distribution of stars in the Galaxy is set is one of the main issues of modern astronomy. Here we present a statistical study of mass and density distributions of infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) and fragments within them. These regions are pristine molecular gas structures and progenitors of stars and so provide insights into the initial conditions of star formation. This study makes use of a IRDC catalogue (Peretto & Fuller 2009), the largest sample of IRDC column density maps to date, containing a total of ~11,000 IRDCs with column densities exceeding N_{H2} = 1 X10^{22} cm^{-2} and over 50,000 single peaked IRDC fragments. The large number of objects constitutes an important strength of this study, allowing detailed analysis of the completeness of the sample and so statistically robust conclusions. Using a statistical approach to assigning distances to clouds, the mass and density distributions of the clouds and the fragments within them are constructed. The mass distributions show a steepening of the slope when switching from IRDCs to fragments, in agreement with previous results of similar structures. IRDCs and fragments are divided into unbound/bound objects by assuming Larson's relation and calculating their virial parameter. IRDCs are mostly gravitationally bound, while a significant fraction of the fragments are not. The density distribution of gravitationally unbound fragments shows a steep characteristic slope.

Topological Catastrophe and Isostructural Phase Transition in Calcium

description: We predict a quantum phase transition in fcc Ca under hydrostatic pressure. Using density functional theory, we find at pressures below 80 kbar, the topology of the electron charge density is characterized by nearest neighbor atoms connected through bifurcated bond paths and deep minima in the octahedral holes. At pressures above 80 kbar, the atoms bond through non-nuclear maxima that form in the octahedral holes. This topological change in the charge density softens the C' elastic modulus of fcc Ca, while C$_{44}$ remains unchanged. We propose an order parameter based on applying Morse theory to the charge density, and we show that near the critical point it follows the expected mean-field scaling law with reduced pressure.

description: A simple method, inspired by procedures used in physics of nuclear multifragmentation, allows to establish order of precedence and age of pairs of haplotypes separated by one mutation. For both haplotypes of the pair, searches for existing haplotypes, differing by increasing number of mutations, are carried out using a database. The resulting ratios of frequences of haplotypes, found at given mutation distances, are compared to calculated probability ratios. The order of precedence and age of the pair of haplotypes can be deduced when the resulting ratios follow hyperbolic dependence. Method can be used with relatively small and not necessarily complete samples, using publicly accessible databases.

Following the revision of Perlesta by Stark (1989) this species was known mainly from the Gulf and Atlantic Coastal Plain region. Subsequent work has found this species further inland (e.g. Great Smoky Mountains National Park, DeWalt & Heinold 2005). One of us (SAG) has also collected this species from the Big South Fork Cumberland River in northern Tennessee. More records of this species from the Cumberland River drainage are expected.

Nymphs and nymphal exuviae of this species have distinctive pigmentation patterns (Ray & Stark 1981, Nelson 1996). The recollection of exuviae in 1988 is evidence that this species still persists in the Cumberland River Basin. We anticipate that H. fugitans is in other large rivers such as the lower Green and Ohio rivers.
