description: This study presents a Regret-based optimization model for multi-period consequence management of contaminations entering the WDNs considering the pollutants loads’ entry uncertainties. For this purpose, first, the EPANET software is utilized as a water quality-quantity simulation modeling tool. Then, an optimization model based on a genetic algorithm using the primary objective functions of minimizing the return time of the contaminated WDNs to the normal mode, the amount of pollution, and the number of polluted nodes. Besides, the pollutant load-related uncertainties are included in the presented simulation-optimization model by minimizing the maximum Regret (MMR) and the total Regret (MTR) in two steady and dynamic status for all three mentioned objective functions. Using these nine objective functions, three management instruments are utilized: quick closing valves, discharging hydrants, and boosting pumps. The results show that the proposed model can effectively prevent harmful pollution by offering effective management strategies, mainly in dynamic status scenarios.

description: We present a detailed study of the early phases of the peculiar supernova 2011ay based on BVRI photometry obtained at Konkoly Observatory, Hungary, and optical spectra taken with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope at McDonald Observatory, Texas. The spectral analysis carried out with SYN++ and SYNAPPS confirms that SN 2011ay belongs to the recently defined class of SNe Iax, which is also supported by the properties of its light and color curves. The estimated photospheric temperature around maximum light, T_{phot} ~8,000 K, is lower than in most Type Ia SNe, which results in the appearance of strong Fe II features in the spectra of SN 2011ay, even during the early phases. We also show that strong blending with metal features (those of Ti II, Fe II, Co II) makes the direct analysis of the broad spectral features very difficult, and this may be true for all SNe Iax. We find two alternative spectrum models that both describe the observed spectra adequately, but their photospheric velocities differ by at least 3,000 km/s. The quasi-bolometric light curve of SN~2011ay has been assembled by integrating the UV-optical spectral energy distributions. Fitting a modified Arnett-model to L_{bol}(t), the moment of explosion and other physical parameters, i.e. the rise time to maximum, the ^{56}Ni mass and the total ejecta mass are estimated as t_{rise} ~14 +/-1 days, M_{Ni} ~0.22 +/- 0.01 M_{sol} and M_{ej} ~0.8 M_{sol}, respectively.

description: The interplay between fluctuating Cooper pairs and magnetic impurities in conventional BCS low-Tc superconductors has been studied through measurements of the magnetic field dependence of the fluctuation diamagnetism (FD) above Tc in lanthanum with praseodymium impurities. These measurements provide a crucial confirmation of our previous observation [Europhys. Lett. 73, 587 (2006)] that in the dilute impurity regime the FD increases almost linearly with the concentration of magnetic impurities. This striking effect is attributed to a variation due to the presence of the fluctuating Cooper pairs of the coupling between magnetic impurities. To describe these results at a phenomenological level, we propose a Gaussian Ginzburg-Landau model for the FD which includes an indirect contribution proportional to both the impurities concentration and the Cooper pairs density. Our approach is able to explain simultaneously the FD increase due to magnetic impurities and its decrease with the application of large magnetic fields.

Lost to Follow-up: A Study Exploring Barriers to Care at UNC Women’s Hospital Dysplasia Clinic
Creators: name: Campbell, Sara
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: Management of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) includes a long time course of surveillance in which many women are “lost to follow-up.” Inadequate management of early dysplastic changes that may progress to CIN contributes to an increased likelihood of mortality from invasive cervical cancer in the state of North Carolina. The aim of this qualitative study is to understand women’s knowledge and perceptions of cervical dysplasia in order to tailor counseling for improved follow-up. Thirteen women with varying levels of cytological abnormalities from pap smear screening were interviewed prior to their colposcopy appointment at a referral hospital. In addition to recalling significant anxiety and fear about the possibility of cancer, women exhibited an unexpected lack of knowledge about cervical dysplasia and human papilloma virus (HPV) despite counseling at previous clinics. Financial and cost barriers were less significant to seeking care than understanding of prognosis. This study reveals an opportunity for better pre-testing and pre-screening counseling about the causal role of HPV and the potential disease course following cytological abnormalities to increase women’s likelihood of referral follow-up.

description: We present a survey of existing approaches to relational division in rank-aware databases, discuss issues of the present approaches, and outline generalizations of several types of classic division-like operations. We work in a model which generalizes the Codd model of data by considering tuples in relations annotated by ranks, indicating degrees to which tuples in relations match queries. The approach utilizes complete residuated lattices as the basic structures of degrees. We argue that unlike the classic model, relational divisions are fundamental operations which cannot in general be expressed by means of other operations. In addition, we compare the existing and proposed operations and identify those which are faithful counterparts of universally quantified queries formulated in relational calculi. We introduce Pseudo Tuple Calculus in the ranked model which is further used to show mutual definability of the various forms of divisions presented in the paper.

description: In analogy to III-V compounds, which have significantly broadened the scope of group IV semiconductors, we propose IV-VI compounds as isoelectronic counterparts to layered group V semiconductors. Using {\em ab initio} density functional theory, we study yet unrealized structural phases of silicon mono-sulfide (SiS). We find the black-phosphorus-like $α$-SiS to be almost equally stable as the blue-phosphorus-like $β$-SiS. Both $α$-SiS and $β$-SiS monolayers display a significant, indirect band gap that depends sensitively on the in-layer strain. Unlike 2D semiconductors of group V elements with the corresponding nonplanar structure, different SiS allotropes show a strong polarization either within or normal to the layers. We find that SiS may form both lateral and vertical heterostructures with phosphorene at a very small energy penalty, offering an unprecedented tunability in structural and electronic properties of SiS-P compounds.

description: We propose a semi-analytical method of calculating the timing fluctuations in mode-locked semiconductor lasers and apply it to study the effect of delayed coherent optical feedback on pulse timing jitter in these lasers. The proposed method greatly reduces computation times and therefore allows for the investigation of the dependence of timing fluctuations over greater parameter domains. We show that resonant feedback leads to a reduction in the timing jitter and that a frequency-pulling region forms about the main resonances, within which a timing jitter reduction is observed. The width of these frequency-pulling regions increases linearly with short feedback delay times. We derive an analytic expression for the timing jitter, which predicts a monotonous decrease in the timing jitter for resonant feedback of increasing delay lengths, when timing jitter effects are fully separated from amplitude jitter effects. For long feedback cavities the decrease in timing jitter scales approximately as $1/τ$ with the increase of the feedback delay time $τ$.

description: Background. Youth mental health is a significant issue in the United States; especially for young adults and adolescents who identify as Black, Indigenous, or people of color (BIPOC). BIPOC youth traditionally face greater barriers to care, such as lower insurance coverage and provider bias, and historically have suffered poorer health outcomes compared to their non-BIPOC counterparts. To understand how to most effectively help BIPOC youth with mental health issues, more data is needed. However, research on BIPOC mental health and mental healthcare programming is lacking. This study aims to better understand the needs and race-related lived experiences of BIPOC youth in a virtual intensive outpatient setting in order to improve programming curriculum and better meet the specific needs of BIPOC patients.
Methods. A survey with four measures–general belongingness, racial trauma, race-related discrimination, and internalized mental health stigma–was administered to 24 individuals in Charlie Health’s (a company offering virtual intensive outpatient programming for youth) young adult and adolescent BIPOC support groups. Data collected in this survey was compared against results in the general population, obtained from the literature.
Results. The findings suggest that BIPOC youth participating in IOP support groups report significantly lower levels of belongingness, and higher levels of racial trauma and race-related discrimination relative to their peers in other contexts, as seen in the literature. Results from the internalized stigma of mental illness measure were nonsignificant.
Conclusions. Research that improves understanding of BIPOC patient race-related experiences is important to enhance the quality of care provided to them. BIPOC youth in intensive mental healthcare treatment settings like Charlie Health could benefit from programming specific to their race-related lived experiences. Based on the results of this study, BIPOC programming curriculum could be more effective with the augmentation of certain topics, like belongingness in society and race-related discrimination, as well as a greater focus on unpacking racial trauma. Incorporating elements from Charlie Health’s BIPOC program–such as cultural competency training in clinicians–would also be beneficial. Further research on mental health stigma and outcomes in this population is necessary in order to make definitive curricular
recommendations.

description: The dynamics of short-lived mRNA results in bursts of protein production in gene regulatory networks. We investigate the propagation of bursting noise between different levels of mathematical modelling, and demonstrate that conventional approaches based on diffusion approximations can fail to capture bursting noise. An alternative coarse-grained model, the so-called piecewise deterministic Markov process (PDMP), is seen to outperform the diffusion approximation in biologically relevant parameter regimes. We provide a systematic embedding of the PDMP model into the landscape of existing approaches, and we present analytical methods to calculate its stationary distribution and switching frequencies.

description: The interplay of superconductivity and magnetism is a subject of ongoing interest, stimulated most recently by the discovery of Fe-based superconductivity and the recognition that spin-fluctuations near a magnetic quantum critical point may provide an explanation for the superconductivity and the order parameter. Here we investigate magnetism in the Na filled Fe-based skutterudites using first principles calculations. NaFe4Sb12 is a known ferromagnet near a quantum critical point. We find a ferromagnetic metallic state for this compound driven by a Stoner type instability, consistent with prior work. In accord with prior work, the magnetization is overestimated, as expected for a material near an itinerant ferromagnetic quantum critical point. NaFe4P12 also shows a ferromagnetic instability at the density functional level, but this instability is much weaker than that of NaFe4Sb12, possibly placing it on the paramagnetic side of the quantum critical point. NaFe4As12 shows intermediate behavior. We also present results for skutterudite FeSb3, which is a metastable phase that has been reported in thin film form.

Year: 2018

description: Objectives: Gender roles and cultural norms affect many aspects of women’s life including their health. This study examines the association between women’s autonomy over their health and their access to obstetric healthcare services in Egypt. The hypothesis is that women with positive autonomy indicators are more likely to use obstetric health services which include antenatal care, place of delivery, and postnatal care. Methods: The study included currently married women ages 15 to 49 years old from the 2014 Egypt Demographic Health Survey data. The analysis included bivariate regression and three multiple regression models for each service utilization indicator. Results: Multiple regression models showed that autonomy indicators retained some of their significance even after adjusting for age, education, work, residency, wealth, and birth order. Conclusions: A woman’s autonomy over her health affects her access to obstetric health service.

We show that by means of resonant scattering off nuclei and fast rotations of the nuclear hyperfine magnetic field to control the polarization of the output photon, single-qubit logical gates can be simulated. A second control qubit may be employed to trigger the magnetic field rotation, thus allowing several implementation choices for a controlled NOT gate for x-ray photons.

The resulting two-neutron separation energies reveal a 3 MeV shell gap at N = 32, slightly lower than for 52Ca, highlighting the doubly-magic nature of this nuclide.

The Association between Foreign Aid and Infant Mortality in Southeast Asia
Creators: name: Lim, YangSing
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Objectives: While foreign aid is widely believed to improve health outcomes in developing countries, the question on aid effectiveness remains unresolved. This paper seeks to assess the association between foreign aid and infant mortality. Methods: Basing data on seven Southeast Asian countries from 1996 to 2011, a cross-country analysis of the relationship between net official development assistance received and infant mortality rate was performed using a fixed effects model. Results: Foreign aid does not have a significant effect on lowering infant mortality. Other main findings are that increase in economic growth and improved access to water are significant and positively associated with reduction in infant mortality. Conclusions: Future research should include case studies and use disaggregated data on foreign aid for greater precision and accuracy.

Science Policy

description: Landslides are destructive geohazards to people and infrastructure, resulting in hundreds of deaths and billions of dollars of damage every year. Therefore, mapping the rate of deformation of such geohazards and understanding their mechanics is of paramount importance to mitigate the resulting impacts and properly manage the associated risks. In this paper, the main outcomes relevant to the joint European Space Agency (ESA) and the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) Dragon-5 initiative cooperation project ID 59,339 “Earth observation for seismic hazard assessment and landslide early warning system” are reported. The primary goals of the project are to further develop advanced SAR/InSAR and optical techniques to investigate seismic hazards and risks, detect potential landslides in wide regions, and demonstrate EO-based landslide early warning system over selected landslides. This work only focuses on the landslide hazard content of the project, and thus, in order to achieve these objectives, the following tasks were developed up to now: a) a procedure for phase unwrapping errors and tropospheric delay correction; b) an improvement of a cross-platform SAR offset tracking method for the retrieval of long-term ground displacements; c) the application of polarimetric SAR interferometry (PolInSAR) to increase the number and quality of monitoring points in landslide-prone areas; d) the semiautomatic mapping and preliminary classification of active displacement areas on wide regions; e) the modeling and identification of landslides in order to identify triggering factors or predict future displacements; and f) the application of an InSAR-based landslide early warning system on a selected site. The achieved results, which mainly focus on specific sensitive regions, provide essential assets for planning present and future scientific activities devoted to identifying, mapping, characterizing, monitoring and predicting landslides, as well as for the implementation of early warning systems.

Year: 2014

description: In Bangladesh, 74 percent of women age 20-49 are married by the age of 18. Objectives: This study aims to understand the association between age at marriage and attitudes towards violence against women. Methods: Randomized controlled trial data were collected from reproductive age women, their husbands, and mothers-in-law living in Nilphamari District, Bangladesh. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used. Results: Older age at marriage was associated with a decrease in justification for wife beating. Conclusions: To improve women's well being, policy change coupled with effective intervention methods must be applied. Intervention activities need to include household decision makers as well as young wives to effectively reduce the prevalence of violence against women in Bangladesh.

description: We aim at studying approximate null-controllability properties of a particular class of piecewise linear Markov processes (Markovian switch systems). The criteria are given in terms of algebraic invariance and are easily computable. We propose several necessary conditions and a sufficient one. The hierarchy between these conditions is studied via suitable counterexamples. Equivalence criteria are given in abstract form for general dynamics and algebraic form for systems with constant coefficients or continuous switching. The problem is motivated by the study of lysis phenomena in biological organisms and price prediction on spike-driven commodities.

description: Mountains are important suppliers of freshwater to downstream areas, affecting large populations in particular in High Mountain Asia (HMA). Yet, the propagation of water from HMA headwaters to downstream areas is not fully understood, as interactions in the mountain water cycle between the cryo-, hydro- and biosphere remain elusive. We review the definition of blue and green water fluxes as liquid water that contributes to runoff at the outlet of the selected domain (blue) and water lost to the atmosphere through vapor fluxes, that is evaporation from water, ground, and interception plus transpiration (green) and propose to add the term white water to account for the (often neglected) evaporation and sublimation from snow and ice. We provide an assessment of models that can simulate the cryo-hydro-biosphere continuum and the interactions between spheres in high mountain catchments, going beyond disciplinary separations. Land surface models are uniquely able to account for such complexity, since they solve the coupled fluxes of water, energy, and carbon between the land surface and atmosphere. Due to the mechanistic nature of such models, specific variables can be compared systematically to independent remote sensing observations – providing vital insights into model accuracy and enabling the understanding of the complex watersheds of HMA. We discuss recent developments in spaceborne earth observation products that have the potential to support catchment modeling in high mountain regions. We then present a pilot study application of the mechanistic land surface model Tethys & Chloris to a glacierized watershed in the Nepalese Himalayas and discuss the use of high-resolution earth observation data to constrain the meteorological forcing uncertainty and validate model results. We use these insights to highlight the remaining challenges and future opportunities that remote sensing data presents for land surface modeling in HMA.
Protein search for multiple targets on DNA

description: Protein-DNA interactions are crucial for all biological processes. One of the most important fundamental aspects of these interactions is the process of protein searching and recognizing specific binding sites on DNA. A large number of experimental and theoretical investigations have been devoted to uncovering the molecular description of these phenomena, but many aspects of the mechanisms of protein search for the targets on DNA remain not well understood. One of the most intriguing problems is the role of multiple targets in protein search dynamics. Using a recently developed theoretical framework we analyze this question in detail. Our method is based on a discrete-state stochastic approach that takes into account most relevant physical-chemical processes and leads to fully analytical description of all dynamic properties. Specifically, systems with two and three targets have been explicitly investigated. It is found that multiple targets in most cases accelerate the search in comparison with a single target situation. However, the acceleration is not always proportional to the number of targets. Surprisingly, there are even situations when it takes longer to find one of the multiple targets in comparison with the single target. It depends on the spatial position of the targets, distances between them, average scanning lengths of protein molecules on DNA, and the total DNA lengths. Physical-chemical explanations of observed results are presented. Our predictions are compared with experimental observations as well as with results from a continuum theory for the protein search. Extensive Monte Carlo computer simulations fully support our theoretical calculations.

Abortion in the United States: A brief history of abortion in the US, including a closer examination of abortion history and policy in North Carolina and Massachusetts
Creators: name: Squires, Megan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: 1 in 3 American women will obtain an abortion before turning 45. Abortion is one of the safest surgical procedures in the US. The passage of Roe v. Wade in 1973 has contributed to increased safety of the procedure. Since that time, the US political and societal landscape has evolved surrounding abortion. Each state has implemented its own policies, some expanding and some restricting, surrounding abortion. This presentation explores the history of abortion in the U.S. and more closely examines abortion history and policies in two politically different states: North Carolina and Massachusetts. This presentation is intended to serve as an addition to material covered in Foundations course that is part of the UNC Department of Maternal and Child Health.

description: Broadband single photons are usually considered not to couple efficiently to atomic gases because of the large mismatch in bandwidth. Contrary to this intuitive picture, here we demonstrate that the interaction of ultrashort single photons with a dense resonant atomic sample deeply modifies the temporal shape of their wavepacket mode without degrading their non-classical character, and effectively generates zero-area single-photon pulses. This is a clear signature of strong transient coupling between single broadband (THz-level) light quanta and atoms, with intriguing fundamental implications and possible new applications to the storage of quantum information.
