description: We perform extensive molecular dynamics simulations of 2D frictionless granular materials to determine whether these systems can be characterized by a single static yield shear stress. We consider boundary-driven planar shear at constant volume and either constant shear force or constant shear velocity. Under steady flow conditions, these two ensembles give similar results for the average shear stress versus shear velocity. However, near jamming it is possible that the shear stress required to initiate shear flow can differ substantially from the shear stress required to maintain flow. We perform several measurements of the shear stress near the initiation and cessation of flow. At fixed shear velocity, we measure the average shear stress $Σ_{yv}$ in the limit of zero shear velocity. At fixed shear force, we measure the minimum shear stress $Σ_{yf}$ required to maintain steady flow at long times. We find that in finite-size systems $Σ_{yf} > Σ_{yv}$, which implies that there is a jump discontinuity in the shear velocity from zero to a finite value when these systems begin flowing at constant shear force. However, our simulations show that the difference $Σ_{yf} - Σ_{yv}$, and thus the discontinuity in the shear velocity, tend to zero in the infinite system size limit. Thus, our results indicate that in the large system limit, frictionless granular systems are characterized by a single static yield shear stress. We also monitor the short-time response of these systems to applied shear and show that the packing fraction of the system and shape of the velocity profile can strongly influence whether or not the shear stress at short times overshoots the long-time average value.

description: We analyze the Heisenberg limit on phase estimation for Gaussian states. In the analysis, no reference to a phase operator is made. We prove that the squeezed vacuum state is the most sensitive for a given average photon number. We provide two adaptive local measurement schemes that attain the Heisenberg limit asymptotically. One of them is described by a positive operator-valued measure and its efficiency is exhaustively explored. We also study Gaussian measurement schemes based on phase quadrature measurements. We show that homodyne tomography of the appropriate quadrature attains the Heisenberg limit for large samples. This proves that this limit can be attained with local projective Von Neuman measurements.

description: Based on previous work for the static problem, in this paper we first derive one form of dynamic finite-strain shell equations for incompressible hyperelastic materials that involve three shell constitutive relations. In order to single out the bending effect as well as to reduce the number of shell constitutive relations, a further refinement is performed, which leads to a refined dynamic finite-strain shell theory with only two shell constitutive relations (deducible from the given three-dimensional (3D) strain energy function) and some new insights are also deduced. By using the weak formulation of the shell equations and the variation of the 3D Lagrange functional, boundary conditions and the two-dimensional (2D) shell virtual work principle are derived. As a benchmark problem, we consider the extension and inflation of an arterial segment. The good agreement between the asymptotic solution based on the shell equations and that from the 3D exact one gives verification of the former. The refined shell theory is also applied to study the plane-strain vibrations of a pressurized artery, and the effects of the axial pre-stretch, pressure and fibre angle on the vibration frequencies are investigated in detail.

description: Within a transport model we search for potential probes of the isospin dependence of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon (NN) cross sections. Traditional measures of the nuclear stopping power are found sensitive to the magnitude but they are ambiguous for determining the isospin dependence of the in-medium NN cross sections. It is shown that isospin tracers, such as the neutron/proton ratio of free nucleons, at backward rapidities/angles in nuclear reactions induced by radioactive beams in inverse kinematics is a sensitive probe of the isospin dependence of the in-medium NN cross sections. At forward rapidities/angles, on the other hand, they are more sensitive to the density dependence of the symmetry energy. Measurements of the rapidity/angular dependence of the isospin transport in nuclear reactions will enable a better understanding of the isospin dependence of in-medium nuclear effective interactions.

description: In this paper we use the heat equation in a group of Heisenberg type $\mathbb{G}$ to provide a unified treatment of the two very different extension problems for the time independent pseudo-differential operators $\mathscr L^s$ and $\mathscr L_s$, $0< s\leq 1$. Here, $\mathscr L^s$ is the fractional power of the horizontal Laplacian, and $\mathscr L_s$ is the conformal fractional power of the horizontal Laplacian on $\mathbb{G}$. One of our main objective is compute explicitly the fundamental solutions of these nonlocal operators by a new approach exclusively based on partial differential equations and semigroup methods. When $s=1$ our results recapture the famous fundamental solution found by Folland and generalised by Kaplan.

description: We synthesized powder samples of Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}\cdot y$H$_{2}$O changing the volume of the water in the hydration process, then investigated their superconducting properties,. It was proved that the volume of water is one of key parameters to obtain a single phase of Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}\cdot y$H$_{2}$O with good superconducting properties. The transition temperature, $T_{c}$, of the sample changed gradually while it was stored in the atmosphere of 70% humidity. Superconducting behavior under high magnetic field was very sensitive to $T_{c}$. $H_{c2}$ of a high quality sample with high $T_{c}$ seemed very high.

title: The impact of land contamination on human health
Creators: name: Dede, Eric O.
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2018

description: Land contamination is an issue of concern in land regeneration and the built environment. To ensure the sustainability of the built environment, it is important that the risk to human health due to land contamination is addressed adequately. Current generic assessment criteria (GAC) values used in the assessment of contaminated land in the United Kingdom (UK) are very conservative. Although this is protective of human health, it may lead to un-necessary and costly remediation of land or result in land being left un-used. This highlights the need for improved understanding of human exposure to soil contaminants, which this work sought to promote. This thesis presents findings from our assessment of human exposure to five toxic elements; arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), lead (Pb) and nickel (Ni), carried out using individuals who grow and consume their allotment produce. The primary exposure pathway investigated was oral ingestion through the consumption of produce. Concentrations of these elements were measured in samples of soil and produce. Site-specific risk assessment carried out using element concentrations and participants’ produce consumption data indicated no significant health risk to the participants. During the risk assessment process, it is necessary that element bioaccessibility values are determined and considered in the assessment to ensure that the risk is not over-estimated. To improve our understanding of actual human exposure to these elements though the oral ingestion pathway, we carried out biomonitoring and produced human physiologically-based kinetic models to assess internal exposure to these elements. Measured concentrations of blood Pb and urinary As, Cd, Cr and Ni were similar to the corresponding levels in the general (nonoccupationally exposed) populations in the UK; indicating that the participants were not exposed to these elements at levels importantly higher than other adults in the UK. In addition, this indicates that participants’ consumption of allotment produce did not result in them having significant additional exposure to the elements. The models, implemented in MATLAB, predicted the literature data and our biomonitoring data well. Because these models are capable of predicting internal exposure to these elements, they improve our understanding of exposure to the elements, which is important in the sustainable management of land contamination. To our knowledge, it is the first time combined biomonitoring and physiologically-based models for the five toxic elements have been used to assess exposure among allotment users.

description: New ventures face numerous challenges in the initial years of establishment. Due to these challenges, the failure rates of new ventures are high at the inception. One potential path to address the failure rates may be through the marketing and branding activities of new ventures. However, few researchers have focused on the insights of using entrepreneurial marketing strategies as a mitigating factor in this context. Further, new ventures and their journey of creating a favorable brand in a timely fashion is a topic that has received scant attention in the literature. This study investigates the extent to which entrepreneurial marketing impacts the development of branding capabilities to create brand awareness and brand image in new ventures. The study utilizes effectuation theory as the theoretical framework and analyzes the role of bricolage capability and brand management capabilities in facilitating the relationship between entrepreneurial marketing and branding outcomes in new ventures. The study adopts a quantitative research approach and used a multiple-informant design to collect data from the owners/entrepreneurs and the marketing managers of the same firm. Data was gathered from new ventures in Sri Lanka and analyzed using PROCESS analysis and regression analysis to test the hypothesis. The findings indicate that entrepreneurial marketing plays an important role to facilitate creating brand awareness and brand image in new ventures while brand management capabilities mediate, and effectuation and bricolage capabilities moderates this relationship. The results of this study provide insights on new venture branding and highlight the importance of entrepreneurial marketing to successfully overcome the challenges associated with new venture growth and survival.

description: Albert Slatford was born in 1879. His family thinks he volunteered near the beginning of the war, and joined the 13th and 9th Manchester regiment. He was a corporal in the 13th. His father had been a soldier before him, and Albert was born in the barracks. He was always an amateur artist and family legend says that he attended night school art classes with Lowry as a fellow student. His favourite medium was watercolour. Included in his archive objects is a pencil drawing found after his son's death years later, folded amongst his other papers. It depicts an evocative scene in the trenches and is dated 12th August 1917. The family knows nothing more about the picture, or Albert's war record. He did survive the war, and died eventually in 1945.

description: We explore the statistical properties of grain boundaries in the vortex polycrystalline phase of type II superconductors. Treating grain boundaries as arrays of dislocations interacting through linear elasticity, we show that self-interaction of a deformed grain boundary is equivalent to a non-local long-range surface tension. This affects the pinning properties of grain boundaries, that are found to be less rough than isolated dislocations. The presence of grain boundaries has an important effect on the transport properties of type II superconductors as we show by numerical simulations: our results indicate that the critical current is higher for a vortex polycrystal than for a regular vortex lattice. Finally, we discuss the possible role of grain boundaries in vortex lattice melting. Through a phenomenological theory we show that melting can be preceded by an intermediate polycrystalline phase.

description: The generalized logistic equation is used to interpret the COVID-19 epidemic data in several countries: Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Italy, Turkey and South Korea. The model coefficients are calculated: the growth rate and the expected number of infected people, as well as the exponent indexes in the generalized logistic equation. It is shown that the dependence of the number of the infected people on time is well described on average by the logistic curve (within the framework of a simple or generalized logistic equation) with a determination coefficient exceeding 0.8. At the same time, the dependence of the number of the infected people per day on time has a very uneven character and can be described very roughly by the logistic curve. To describe it, it is necessary to take into account the dependence of the model coefficients on time or on the total number of cases. Variations, for example, of the growth rate can reach 60%. The variability spectra of the coefficients have characteristic peaks at periods of several days, which corresponds to the observed serial intervals. The use of the stochastic logistic equation is proposed to estimate the number of probable peaks in the coronavirus incidence.

description: According to Fonseca, Dominicans arrived in Goa in 1548; they had brought with them letters from the King Dom Joao III, to the Viceroy, ordering him to grant them a sufficient piece of ground, with a sum of £5,000, for the purpose of establishing in the city a convent according to a plan which they had already prepared in Portugal; Governor Garcia de Sá promptly complied with the order. In course of time they also prayed that the properties of the temples in the island of Goa, then in the hands of the Jesuit fathers, should be transferred to them, as most of the former had moved to Salcete. Dominican church and the convent were splendid buildings, of which travellers spoke with great admiration; and the festivals of the convent were celebrated with great pomp. They were Inquisitors ex officio.
Classical Vs Quantum Probability in Sequential Measurements

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We demonstrate in this paper that the probabilities for sequential measurements have features very different from those of single-time measurements. First, they cannot be modelled by a classical stochastic process. Second, they are contextual, namely they depend strongly on the specific measurement scheme through which they are determined. We construct Positive-Operator-Valued measures (POVM) that provide such probabilities. For observables with continuous spectrum, the constructed POVMs depend strongly on the resolution of the measurement device, a conclusion that persists even if we consider a quantum mechanical measurement device or the presence of an environment. We then examine the same issues in alternative interpretations of quantum theory. We first show that multi-time probabilities cannot be naturally defined in terms of a frequency operator. We next prove that local hidden variable theories cannot reproduce the predictions of quantum theory for sequential measurements, even when the degrees of freedom of the measuring apparatus are taken into account. Bohmian mechanics, however, does not fall in this category. We finally examine an alternative proposal that sequential measurements can be modelled by a process that does not satisfy the Kolmogorov axioms of probability. This removes contextuality without introducing non-locality, but implies that the empirical probabilities cannot be always defined (the event frequencies do not converge). We argue that the predictions of this hypothesis are not ruled out by existing experimental results (examining in particular the "which way" experiments); they are, however, distinguishable in principle.

description: Confined geometries offer useful and experimentally amenable mechanical testing arrangements in which to study the molecular and micro-structural processes which govern plastic yield in stress environments dominated by hydrostatic pressure over shear. However, the changes to macroscopic stress strain behaviour that result from switching from an unconfined mode such as uniaxial compression to a confined one are often overlooked and display a surprising level of complexity, even for simple elastic plastic constitutive models. Here we report a confinement induced strain hardening effect in polystyrene thin films achieved through repeated plastic loading with a cylindrical flat punch whose diameter is many times the initial film thickness. This high aspect ratio combines with constraint provided by film material surrounding the contact to generate a state of confined uniaxial strain in the indented region, rendering the deformation one dimensional. By repeated loading into the plastic domain, we achieve a 66% increase in the confined yield stress, from 0.3 GPa to 0.5 GPa. Through finite element simulation and analytic modelling of the principal stresses and strains, we show that this effect arises not from intrinsic changes to the structure of the material, but rather residual stresses imparted during plastic loading. We contrast this effect with intrinsic changes to glassy thin films such as physical ageing and thermal cross-linking.

The masks of sanity and psychopathy : a cluster analitical investigation of subtypes of criminal psychopathy
Creators: name: Herve, Hugues F.M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: By definition, those individuals who meet the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) criteria for psychopathy share many common features. However, historical, clinical, theoretical, and empirical accounts also indicate that they differ in several ways, particularly with respect to the interpersonal, affective, lifestyle, and antisocial manifestations of the disorder. The current investigation used cluster analytical techniques to determine if clinically meaningful subtypes, each varying in terms of their facet elevations (Interpersonal, Affective, Lifestyle, Antisocial), can be identified in six samples of adult psychopathic inmates. Irrespective of gender, race, culture, and/or psychiatric co-morbidity and in line with clinical accounts, four stable clusters emerged: the classic psychopath, the manipulative psychopath, the macho psychopath, and one who might be described as the pseudopsychopath. Results are discussed according to their relevance to theory, treatment, and the criminal justice system.

description: In a previous work, it was found that the Light Dark Matter (LDM) scenario could be a possible explanation to the 511 keV emission line detected at the centre of our galaxy. Here, we show that hints of this scenario may also have been discovered in particle physics experiments. This could explain the discrepancy between the measurement of the fine structure constant and the value written in the CODATA. Finally, our results indicate that some of the LDM features could be tested in accelerators. Their discovery might favour N=2 supersymmetry.

description: M16, the Eagle Nebula, is an outstanding \HII \ region which exhibits extensive high-mass star formation and hosts remarkable "pillars". We herein obtained new $^{12}$CO $J=$1-0 data for the region observed with NANTEN2, which were combined with the $^{12}$CO $J=$1-0 data obtained using FUGIN survey. These observations revealed that a giant molecular cloud (GMC) of $\sim 1.3 \times 10^5$ \Msun \ is associated with M16, which is elongated by over 30 pc and is perpendicular to the galactic plane, at a distance of 1.8 kpc. This GMC can be divided into the northern (N) cloud, the eastern (E) filament, the southeast (SE) cloud, the southeast (SE) filament, and the southern (S) cloud. We also found two velocity components (blue and red shifted component) in the N cloud. The blue-shifted component shows a ring-like structure, as well as the red-shifted component coincides with the intensity depression of the ring-like structure. The position-velocity diagram of the components showed a V-shaped velocity feature. The spatial and velocity structures of the cloud indicated that two different velocity components collided with each other at a relative velocity of 11.6 \kms. The timescale of the collision was estimated to be $\sim 4 \times 10^5$ yr. The collision event reasonably explains the formation of the O9V star ALS15348, as well as the shape of the Spitzer bubble N19. A similar velocity structure was found in the SE cloud, which is associated with the O7.5V star HD168504. In addition, the complementary distributions of the two velocity components found in the entire GMC suggested that the collision event occurred globally. On the basis of the above results, we herein propose a hypothesis that the collision between the two components occurred sequentially over the last several $10^{6}$ yr and triggered the formation of O-type stars in the NGC6611 cluster.

description: We study dynamics of Type IIB bound-state of a Dirichlet string and n fundamental strings in the background of N fundamental strings. Because of supergravity potential, the bound-state string is pulled to the background fundamental strings, whose motion is described by open string rolling radion field. The string coupling can be made controllably weak and, in the limit $1 << g^2_{\rm st} n << g^2_{\rm st} N$, the bound-state energy involved is small compared to the string scale. We thus propose rolling dynamics of open string radion in this system as an exactly solvable analog for rolling dynamics of open string tachyon in decaying D-brane. The dynamics bears a novel feature that the worldsheet electric field increases monotonically to the critical value as the bound-state string falls into the background string. Close to the background string, D string constituent inside the bound-state string decouples from fundamental string constituents.

description: Digitization has led to smart, connected technologies be an integral part of businesses, governments and communities. For manufacturing digitization, there has been active research and development with a focus on Cloud Manufacturing (CM) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). This work presents a computer vision toolkit (CV Toolkit) for non-invasive digitization of the factory floor in line with Industry 4.0 requirements for factory data collection. Currently, technical challenges persist towards digitization of legacy systems due to the limitation for changes in their design and sensors. This novel toolkit is developed to facilitate easy integration of legacy production machinery and factory floor artifacts with the digital and smart manufacturing environment with no requirement of any physical changes in the machines. The system developed is modular, and allows real-time monitoring of production machinery. Modularity aspect allows the incorporation of new software applications in the current framework of CV Toolkit. To allow connectivity of this toolkit with manufacturing floors in a simple, deployable and cost-effective manner, the toolkit is integrated with a known manufacturing data standard, MTConnect, to "translate" the digital inputs into data streams that can be read by commercial status tracking and reporting software solutions. The proposed toolkit is demonstrated using a mock-panel environment developed in house at the University of Cincinnati to highlight its usability.

description: We present a calculation of single and double spin asymmetries for inclusive hadron production in hadronic collisions. Our approach is based on Leading Order (LO) perturbative QCD and generalized factorization theorems, with full account of intrinsic parton momentum, k_T, effects. This leads to a new class of spin and k_T-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions. Limiting ourselves to consider leading twist functions, we show how they could play a relevant role in producing non-vanishing spin asymmetries.

Intentions do not take care of themselves : attentional and cognitive abilities required for prospective remembering
Creators: name: Jacova, Claudia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The present research focused on event-cued prospective memory (ProM). ProM is becoming aware that some ongoing event signals the need to act upon an intention formed at an earlier time. Two major goals were addressed. One goal was to identify the attentional resources required for processing the ProM event. This goal builds on current theories that understand ProM retrieval as an attention-demanding process. Two experiments manipulated the attentional demands of the ongoing task to selectively constrain resource availability for ProM. The ProM task was to interrupt the ongoing activity if a picture cue was noticed. The cue was embedded in ongoing task trials. In Experiment One, participants performed either a task that required simple speeded responding, or one that required searching for a target letter and matching it to memory. The second task elicited lower levels of ProM than the first. Experiment Two tested the effects of ongoing searching and matching-to-memory separately, by manipulating distractor and target load in a speeded yes/no decision task. Distractor but not target load reduced ProM performance, implicating perceptual search processes in this type of memory. These results were discussed in terms of a link between ProM and attentional selection. The second goal of the present research was to investigate the involvement of top-down thinking processes in ProM. This goal focused on the relationship between ProM and creativity. In Experiment One, performance on two ProM tasks was correlated with performance on two divergent thinking tests. High levels of originality predicted low levels of ProM. In Experiment Two, productions on a verbal divergent thinking test and nonverbal drawing task were scored in terms of originality and flexibility. High levels of originality again predicted low levels of ProM across tasks, but high levels of flexibility predicted high levels of ProM. The interpretation of these results was that thinking in unusual ways may interfere with ProM whereas thinking broadly, in terms of multiple conceptual categories, may facilitate ProM.

description: A szállítmányozási vállalatok jelentős része nyújt logisztikai szolgáltatást megbízói részére. Ezáltal az őket megbízó termelő vállalatok állandó költségeik egy részét változó költségekké alakíthatják át. Az alapanyagok és késztermé-kek fuvarozásának megszervezését, helyváltoztatásukat, csomagolásukat, táro-lásukat stb. szakvállalatokra bízzák, és ezáltal fuvar- és állóeszköz, bér, szerve-zési stb. költségeket takarítanak meg. A legnagyobb magyar szállítmányozói szakmai szövetség tagjai körében végzett vizsgálat fényt derít arra, hogy mi jellemzi a mezőgazdasági és élelmiszeripari vállalatok számára nyújtott logisz-tikai szolgáltatásokat. Az agrárium vállalatai és a logisztikai szolgáltatók kö-zött szorosabb kapcsolatra lenne szükség a biztonságosabb tervezhetőség, a költséghatékonyság növelése, a felelősség és a kockázat megosztása érdekében. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX A significant number of forwarding companies offer logistical support to their clients. As a result, a portion of the fixed costs of the production companies employing them can be converted to variable costs. They entrust the carriage, location change, packing and storage, etc. of raw materials and finished products to specialist firms, thereby making cost savings on transport, fixed assets, wages organisation etc. A study conducted among members of Hungary’s largest association of forwarding companies highlighted the characteristics of the logistical services offered to agricultural and food industry businesses. In the interests of more reliable planning, increased cost efficiency and the sharing of liability and risk, stronger relationships are needed between agricultural businesses and the logistical service providers.

Pair correlation of dilute Active Brownian Particles: from low activity dipolar correction to high activity algebraic depletion wings

description: We study the pair correlation of Active Brownian Particles at low density using numerical simulations and analytical calculations. We observe a winged pair correlation: while particles accumulate in front of an active particle as expected, the depletion wake consists of two depletion wings. In the limit of soft particles, we obtain a closed equation for the pair correlation, allowing us to characterize the depletion wings. In particular, we unveil two regimes at high activity where the wings adopt a self-similar profile and decay algebraically. We also perform experiments of self-propelled Janus particles and indeed observe the depletion wings.

description: The submitted item is a painting of Lucheux, France by an artist that lived close to Fleet. The painting is dated 22/8/1917 (on the reverse) and it was purchased by the contributor at a charity sale of the artist's work in the Church Hall, King's Road, Fleet around twenty years ago (1998). Though it is hard to make out, it looks like the artist's name was W. Champion/s. The contributor did not know anything else about the artist or the painting.

description: We demonstrate that near the threshold, the pi pi scattering amplitude contains a pole with the quantum numbers of the vacuum - commonly referred to as the sigma - and determine its mass and width within small uncertainties. Our derivation does not involve models or parametrizations, but relies on a straightforward calculation based on the Roy equation for the isoscalar S-wave.
