description: Since its formation the European Union (EU) has employed a rather complicated policy to ensure high prices to domestic sugar growers and trade preferences to certain sugar exporting countries. One result of this policy is that the EU has been both the second largest importer and second largest exporter in the world market. Under pressure from the World Trade Organization (WTO), the EU agreed to reform its policies toward sugar in 2001, with the full effect of the reforms being fully implemented in 2006. In this paper, the impact of the EU sugar reform on global production, consumption, imports, and exports is examined. With a particular emphasis on the African Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) nations.

description: Let M be a monoid (e.g. the lattice Z^D), and A an abelian group. A^M is then a compact abelian group; a linear cellular automaton (LCA) is a continuous endomorphism F:A^M --> A^M that commutes with all shift maps. Let mu be a (possibly nonstationary) probability measure on A^M; we develop sufficient conditions on mu and F so that the sequence {F^N mu} (N=1,2,3,...) weak*-converges to the Haar measure on A^M, in density (and thus, in Cesaro average as well). As an application, we show: if A=Z/p (p prime), F is any ``nontrivial'' LCA on A^{(Z^D)}, and mu belongs to a broad class of measures (including most Bernoulli measures (for D >= 1) and ``fully supported'' N-step Markov measures (when D=1), then F^N mu weak*-converges to Haar measure in density.

description: The Sahara, one of the most extreme environments on Earth, constitutes an unexplored source of alkalitolerant actinobacteria. In this work, we studied the diversity of alkalitolerant actinobacteria in various soils collected from different regions of the Algerian Sahara. A total of 29 alkalitolerant actinobacterial strains were isolated by using a complex agar medium. The diversity of these actinobacteria was evaluated using a polyphasic approach, which included morphological, chemotaxonomic, physiological (numerical taxonomy) and 16S rRNA gene analyses. The isolates which were assigned to the genus Nocardiopsis, shared relatively low 16S rRNA gene sequences similarities compared to closely related species suggesting that they belonged to putatively new species. All of the strains were tested for antibiotic activity against a broad range of microorganisms and screened for genes encoding polyketide synthases and non-ribosomal peptide synthetases and found to have the potential to produce secondary metabolites. Consequently, the study supports the view that extreme environments contain many novel actinobacteria, which represent an unexplored source for the discovery of biologically active compounds.

description: CO adsorption on the Pt(111) surface is studied using first-principles methods. As found in a recent study [Feibelman, et al., J. Phys. Chem. B 105, 4018 (2001)], we find the preferred adsorption site within density functional theory to be the hollow site, whereas experimentally it is found that the top site is preferred. The influence of pseudopotential and exchange-correlation functional error on the CO binding energy and site preference was carefully investigated. We also compare the site preference energy of CO on Pt(111) with the reaction energy of formaldehyde formation from H$_2$ and CO. We show that the discrepancies between the experimental and theoretical results are due to the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) treating different bond orders with varying accuracy. As a result, GGA results will contain significant error whenever bonds of different bond order are broken and formed.
Modelling Diffusion in a Physically Constrained System : A Numerical Approach

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Diffusion has been described on a microscopic scale by Einstein as a probabilistic collision of particles. On a macroscale, diffusion has been thoroughly described by Fick’s laws. However, the solutions to Fick’s laws are limited to idealized physical systems. The aim of this experimental study is to provide a mathematical model for diffusion which incorporates both macroscopic and microscopic properties to effectively model diffusion in a geometrically constrained two-dimensional system. Based on macroscopic and microscopic properties, two-dimensional diffusion was modelled as a summation of equally probable paths of diffusion. The point source diffusion of hydrochloric acid in an arena with variable barrier dimensions was monitored continuously using a pH probe. The numerical solution of the mathematical model for each experimental condition was determined and the pre-exponential factor was fit to the measurements. The average pre-exponential value was determined for each experimental condition, and t-scores were calculated to compare the average pre-exponential values which were found to be statistically similar. This indicates that the proposed model is an accurate model as it predicts identical pre-exponential values between experimental conditions, accounting for all variants that it attempts to model. This model provides a bridge between the microscopic and macrcoscopic theoretical descriptions of diffusion that were independently postulated by Einstein and Fick. Applications of the model include the approximation of locations of leakage in hydraulic systems.

description: The spatial distribution of the differential conductance for ultrathin Pb films grown on Si(111)7x7 substrate is studied by means of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. The formation of the quantum--confined states for conduction electrons and, correspondingly, the appearance of local maxima of the differential tunneling conductance are typical for Pb films; the energy of such states is determined mainly by the local thickness of Pb film. We demonstrate that the magnitude of the tunneling conductivity within atomically flat terraces can be spatially nonuniform and the period of the small-scale modulation coincides with the period of Si(111)7x7 reconstruction. For relatively thick Pb films we observe large-scale inhomogeneities of the tunneling conductance, which reveal itself as a gradual shift of the quantized levels at a value of the order of 50 meV at distances of the order of 100 nm. We believe that such large-scale variations of the tunneling conductance and, respectively, local density of states in Pb films can be related to presence of internal defects of crystalline structure, for instance, local electrical potentials and stresses.

description: Abstract

This study investigates the factors influencing the allocation of remittances by households towards entrepreneurial investments, accounting for the fact that this allocation is censored at zero and interconnected with savings. Using a bivariate Tobit model applied to data from a Vietnamese household survey, the key findings reveal that, although costs and funding sources for securing overseas employment, skill development, and savings accumulation have no significant impact, the age of overseas workers, their place of origin, and the household income level are positively correlated with the share of remittances directed toward entrepreneurial activities.

description: Rice is the main summer crop in Egypt. It is a cash exportable crop that provides a main source of income to the Egyptian farmers and the national economy. However, the farmers used to burn the rice straw at the farm borders and violate the law that forbids such action, which causes socio-economic negative externalities due to the generated smoke from burning the rice straw produced from 1.8 million feddans of rice i.e. about 0.75 million ha, which causes social costs due to the probability of premature-mortality and morbidity of rural and urban individuals. When chopped rice straw silage mixed with dissolved urea and molasses at 2% and 3% of straw weight, respectively, was provided as feed to buffalo-feeder calves for meat production at 40% of the S.E. of the daily ration with concentrate feed mix, raised the marketing weight derived from the estimated feed-response model that maximizes the gross margin above the feed costs, from 384 to 518 Kg live eight. Using rice straw as feed, for buffalo calves, seems more feasible to the rural communities, than use it as soil fertilizer or in manufacturing wood and paper. While Egypt imported red meat of 963 million dollars in 2013, due to lack of sufficient feed supply, enriched rice straw silage as feed would provide additional 80,000 tons carcass weight from fed buffalo calves, rather than slaughtering them as rearing veal calves. The estimated income generated from one buffalo fed calves reached 50% of the average annual per capita income in Egypt, with more employment opportunities for the rural communities and saving the probable social losses from burning rice straw. 92% of the Egyptian farmers holding 88% of livestock are with small farms they should be the target of a training program on how to make enriched rice straw silage.

description: The use of photoferroic materials that combine ferroelectric and light harvesting properties in a photovoltaic device is a promising route to significantly improve the efficiency of solar cells. These materials do not require the formation of a p-n junction and can produce photovoltages well above the value of the band gap, because of the spontaneous intrinsic polarization and the formation of domain walls. In this perspective, we discuss the recent experimental progresses and challenges for the synthesis of these materials and the theoretical discovery of novel photoferroic materials using a high-throughput approach.

description: This paper presents the first hardware implementation of the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol to enable end-to-end security for the Internet of Things (IoT). A key component of this design is a reconfigurable prime field elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) accelerator, which is 238x and 9x more energy-efficient compared to software and state-of-the-art hardware respectively. Our full hardware implementation of the DTLS 1.3 protocol provides 438x improvement in energy-efficiency over software, along with code size and data memory usage as low as 8 KB and 3 KB respectively. The cryptographic accelerators are coupled with an on-chip low-power RISC-V processor to benchmark applications beyond DTLS with up to two orders of magnitude energy savings. The test chip, fabricated in 65 nm CMOS, demonstrates hardware-accelerated DTLS sessions while consuming 44.08 uJ per handshake, and 0.89 nJ per byte of encrypted data at 16 MHz and 0.8 V.

description: The magnetospheres of accreting neutron stars develop electrostatic gaps with huge potential drops. Protons and ions, accelerated in these gaps along the dipolar magnetic field lines to energies greater than 100 TeV, can impact onto a surrounding accretion disc. A proton-induced cascade so develops, and $ν$-emission is produced from charged pion decays. Using GEANT4, a computer code that tracks particles produced in high energy collisions, we have calculated the resulting $ν$-spectrum with extensive disc shower simulations. We show that the $ν$-spectrum produced out of the proton beam is a power law. We use this result to propose accretion-powered X-ray binaries (with highly magnetized neutron stars) as a new population of point-like $ν$-sources for km-scale detectors, such as ICECUBE. As a particular example we discuss the case of A0535+26. We show that ICECUBE should find A0535+26 to be a periodic $ν$-source: one for which the formation and loss of its accretion disc can be fully detected. Finally, we briefly comment on the possibility that smaller telescopes, like AMANDA, could also detect A0535+26 by folding observations with the orbital period.

description: For the study of nonlinear stability of a dynamical system, normalized Hamiltonian of the system is very important to discuss the dynamics in the vicinity of invariant objects. In general, it represents a nonlinear approximation to the dynamics, which is very helpful to obtain the information about realistic solution of the problem. Present paper reflects about normalization of the Hamiltonian and analysis of nonlinear stability in non-resonance case, in the Chermnykh-like problem under the influence of perturbations in the form of radiation pressure, oblateness, and a disc. To describe nonlinear stability, initially, quadratic part of the Hamiltonian is normalized in the neighborhood of triangular equilibrium point and then higher order normalization is performed. Due to the presence of perturbations and a tedious huge algebraic computation for intermediate terms, we have computed only up to the fourth order normalized Hamiltonian using Lie transforms. In non-resonance case, nonlinear stability of the system is discussed with the help of Arnold-Moser theorem. Again, the effects of radiation pressure, oblateness and presence of the disc are analyzed, separately and it is observed that in the absence as well as presence of perturbation parameters, triangular equilibrium point is unstable in nonlinear sense within the stability range $0

description: Ensemble inequivalence has been observed in several systems. In particular it has been recently shown that negative specific heat can arise in the microcanonical ensemble in the thermodynamic limit for systems with long-range interactions. We display a connection between such behaviour and a mean-field like structure of the partition function. Since short-range models cannot display this kind of behaviour, this strongly suggests that such systems are necessarily non-mean field in the sense indicated here. We illustrate our results showing an application to the Blume-Emery-Griffiths model. We further show that a broad class of systems with non-integrable interactions are indeed of mean-field type in the sense specified, so that they are expected to display ensemble inequivalence as well as the peculiar behaviour described above in the microcanonical ensemble.

description: Molecular dynamics simulations are used to assess the influence of Coulomb coupling on the energy evolution of charged projectiles in the classical one-component plasma. The average projectile kinetic energy is found to decrease linearly with time when $ν_α/ω_{p} \lesssim 10^{-2}$, where $ν_{α}$ is the Coulomb collision frequency between the projectile and the medium, and $ω_{p}$ is the plasma frequency. Stopping power is obtained from the slope of this curve. In comparison to the weakly coupled limit, strong Coulomb coupling causes the magnitude of the stopping power to increase, the Bragg peak to shift to several times the plasma thermal speed, and for the stopping power curve to broaden substantially. The rate of change of the total projectile kinetic energy averaged over many independent simulations is shown to consist of two measurable components: a component associated with a one-dimensional friction force, and a thermal energy exchange rate. In the limit of a slow and massive projectile, these can be related to the macroscopic transport rates of self-diffusion and temperature relaxation in the plasma. Simulation results are compared with available theoretical models for stopping power, self-diffusion coefficients, and temperature relaxation rates.

description: Visual short-term memory (VSTM) is an important cognitive capacity that varies across the healthy adult population and is affected in several neurodevelopmental disorders. It has been suggested that neuroanatomy places limits on this capacity through a map architecture that creates competition for cortical space. This suggestion has been supported by the finding that primary visual (V1) gray matter volume (GMV) is positively associated with VSTM capacity. However, evidence from neurodevelopmental disorders suggests that the dorsal visual stream more broadly is vulnerable and atypical volumes of other map-containing regions may therefore play a role. For example, Turner syndrome is associated with concomitantly reduced volume of the right intraparietal sulcus (IPS) and deficits in VSTM. As posterior IPS regions (IPS0-2) contains topographic maps, together this suggests that posterior IPS volumes may also associate with VSTM. In this study, we assessed VSTM using two tasks, as well as a composite score, and used voxel-based morphometry of T1-weighted magnetic resonance images to assess GMV in V1 and right IPS0-2 in 32 healthy young adults (16 female). For comparison with previous work, we also assessed associations between VSTM and voxel-wise GMV on a whole-brain basis. We found that total brain volume (TBV) significantly correlated with VSTM, and that correlations between VSTM and regional GMV were substantially reduced in strength when controlling for TBV. In our whole-brain analysis, we found that VSTM was associated with GMV of clusters centered around the right putamen and left Rolandic operculum, though only when TBV was not controlled for. Our results suggest that VSTM ability is unlikely to be accounted for by the volume of an individual cortical region and may instead rely on distributed structural properties.

In this study, we analyzed the microbial communities at three different non-hydrothermal sites from two depths in the Mid-Okinawa Trough. The bacterial and archaeal diversities, which were dominated by Gammaproteobacteria and Thaumarchaeota, respectively, were similar in the surface sediments (samples CW12A, CW27A, and CW28A) and grouped together. However, the microbial communities in deeper habitats (samples CW12B, CW27B, and CW28B) were completely different. The microbial diversities in the CW12B and CW28B samples, which were significantly different from that in sample CW27B, were more closely related and grouped together. In sample CW27B, the most abundant bacterial and archaeal groups were Gammaproteobacteria and Hadesarchaea, respectively. In samples CW12B and CW28B, Firmicutes was the major bacterial phylum and the major archaeal phyla were Lokiarchaeota and Bathyarchaeota. These results indicate that the microbial community composition in relatively deep samples from non-hydrothermal fields appears to be more diverse and distinct from that in surface sediments. In addition, all the reported microbial communities at hydrothermal and non-hydrothermal sites in the Okinawa Trough region were summarized. Both the bacterial and archaeal communities are variable at the different sampling sites. Even within a location, the microbial community compositions changed with depth. Overall, our work documents the microbial diversity at different sampling sites and varying depths in non-hydrothermal fields of the Mid-Okinawa Trough. This suggests that distinct microbial community compositions likely occur beneath the sediments in different non-hydrothermal Okinawa Trough regions.

description: The act of measuring a physical signal or field suggests a generalization of the wavelet transform that turns out to be a windowed version of the Radon transform. A reconstruction formula is derived which inverts this transform. A special choice of window yields the "Analytic--Signal transform" (AST), which gives a partially analytic extension of functions from R^n to C^n. For n =1, this reduces to Gabor's classical definition of "analytic signals." The AST is applied to the wave equation, giving an expansion of solutions in terms of wavelets specifically adapted to that equation and parametrized by real space and imaginary time coordinates (the "Euclidean region").

A Python simulation model of the development of multidrug resistant E.coli in an individual host

description: The development of multidrug resistant bacteria in response to antibiotic treatment is one of the chief problems facing modern medicine. We sought to investigate the effect of different antibiotic treatment regimens and bacterial population characteristics on the development of the multidrug resistant bacteria in a population under selective pressure from two antibiotics. We built a deterministic compartmental model in Python to simulate an E.coli population under selective pressure from benzylpenicillin and cephaloglycin. Baseline parameters were obtained from the literature. After adjusting six parameters and compiling results after two hours, we found that the final population size of the multidrug resistant strain decreased in response to increased mutation and growth rates and decreased horizontal gene transfer rates, while variations in the other parameters produced more complex trends.
End-to-end Projector Photometric Compensation

description: Projector photometric compensation aims to modify a projector input image such that it can compensate for disturbance from the appearance of projection surface. In this paper, for the first time, we formulate the compensation problem as an end-to-end learning problem and propose a convolutional neural network, named CompenNet, to implicitly learn the complex compensation function. CompenNet consists of a UNet-like backbone network and an autoencoder subnet. Such architecture encourages rich multi-level interactions between the camera-captured projection surface image and the input image, and thus captures both photometric and environment information of the projection surface. In addition, the visual details and interaction information are carried to deeper layers along the multi-level skip convolution layers. The architecture is of particular importance for the projector compensation task, for which only a small training dataset is allowed in practice. Another contribution we make is a novel evaluation benchmark, which is independent of system setup and thus quantitatively verifiable. Such benchmark is not previously available, to our best knowledge, due to the fact that conventional evaluation requests the hardware system to actually project the final results. Our key idea, motivated from our end-to-end problem formulation, is to use a reasonable surrogate to avoid such projection process so as to be setup-independent. Our method is evaluated carefully on the benchmark, and the results show that our end-to-end learning solution outperforms state-of-the-arts both qualitatively and quantitatively by a significant margin.

description: Positioning of the midcell division plane within the bacterium E. coli is controlled by the min system of proteins: MinC, MinD and MinE. These proteins coherently oscillate from end to end of the bacterium. We present a reaction--diffusion model describing the diffusion of min proteins along the bacterium and their transfer between the cytoplasmic membrane and cytoplasm. Our model spontaneously generates protein oscillations in good agreement with experiments. We explore the oscillation stability, frequency and wavelength as a function of protein concentration and bacterial length.

description: Microbial diversity, same as mineral deposits has been evaluated to be among the underground riches of a country. New data on microbial diversity are thought to be of potential economic value. Acid drainage waters are characterized by low pH and high concentrations of metals. Therefore, these acidic habitats are perfect places for quantitative and genomic-based analyses related to microbial ecology and community functions. The samplings were collected from the Kahramanmaras. The microbiological and molecular techniques were applied to determine the acidophilic community of these regions. Water samples were rich in iron (808.2 ppm, 1086.6 ppm, 2264.7 ppm), gold (1.4 ppm, 1.6 ppm, 2.5 ppm), aluminum (218.5 ppm, 265.5 ppm, 464.3 ppm), manganese (994.1 ppm, 945.6 ppm, 1643.4 ppm), sulfur (3432 ppm, 3971 ppm, 6399 ppm) and zinc (93.9 ppm, 10.8 ppm, 169.5 ppm), respectively for three seasons. The isolates were obtained as Acidiphilium sp., Acidithiobacillus sp., and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans. The predominant bacteria were found to be the members of Acidiphilium, Metallibacterium, Acidithiobacillus, Leptospirillum genera according to the results of the community fingerprint and clone library. 16S amplicon sequencing was analyzed and the diversity results were given at the genus level. Combined culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques were used to identify indigenous bacteria in the iron-rich acid mine ponds. The chemolithotrophic and heterotrophic acidophiles were isolated.
An Investigation into the Physical and Chemical Properties of Wood through Static and Dynamic Bending
Creators: name: Lin, Howard

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: The effects of solvent exposure and grain orientation on the elastic modulus of wood were examined using static loading and measurement of dynamic fundamental frequencies according to the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The rigidity of wood was found to depend strongly on the direction of the grains. It is proposed that the structure of the beam is primarily maintained by hydrogen-bonding between wood cells and it is this geometry of the cells with respect to the intercellular forces that explains the difference in elastic moduli between different grain orientations.
