description: This study documents comparative results of four petroglyph and/or pictograph sites: two on Nellis Air Force Range and two on adjacent Nellis AFR aircraft overflight lands administered by the BLM. A fifth cultural resources site, situated east of Beatty, Nevada, was studies as a control site for the sonic boom aspect of the study. Work focused on determining aircraft sonic boom effects on rock formations containing petroglyphs/pictographs and contrasting the two differing land management strategies (restricted vs unrestricted access) with respect to site preservation. Documentation of the four sites resulted in the recording of 106 petroglyph and/or pictograph panels containing 868 identifiable elements.

Bioactive γCaPGA Sol-Gel Hybrids for Bone Regeneration
Creators: name: Valliant, Esther Mae
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: Bioactive glasses have the ability to bond to bone in vivo, but they are brittle and cannot be used in load bearing applications. In this thesis, a process was developed to toughen bioactive glasses by forming a hybrid material for bone tissue engineering using the sol-gel process. As a first step, in preparation for polymer incorporation into the sol-gel process, the pH of the sol-gel synthesis had to be raised to milder pH conditions to prevent acid chain scission hydrolysis of the polymer. Solgel glasses were synthesised under the modified conditions and no adverse effects were found due to raising the pH of synthesis from pH < 1 to 5.5. These mild pH conditions were then used to synthesise hybrids of silica and calcium salt poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γCaPGA). γCaPGA was used as the toughening agent and as a low temperature calcium source with 3-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) providing covalent coupling between the inorganic and organic components. Hybrids of 40 wt% γCaPGA of all molecular weights tested (120 to 30 kDa) had large strain to failure (> 26 %) which showed that γCaPGA hybrids successfully softened the brittle behaviour of sol-gel glasses. However, the polymer dissolved preferentially due to its hydrophilic nature. All γCaPGA hybrids were found to form hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) within one week in SBF, even though they contained a low calcium concentration of 5 wt% when compared with 17.5 wt% Ca in Bioglass®. Formation of HCA is the first step in bonding to bone in vivo which is a fundamental requirement of materials for bone tissue engineering. Calcium was not only important for bioactivity, but also for ionic crosslinking, which improved compressive strength and reduced strain to failure when compared with identical hybrids made without ionic crosslinking. Although hybrids synthesised with γCaPGA dissolved too quickly for bone applications, calcium chelating polymers have been shown to offer great promise for bone tissue engineering.

description: In this note we show how Ward identities may be derived for a quantum field theory dual of a string theory using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular associated with any gauge symmetry of the bulk supergravity theory there is a corresponding constraint equation. Writing this constraint in Hamilton-Jacobi form gives a generating functional for Ward identities in the dual QFT. We illustrate the method by considering various examples.

Brazil’s Federal Government Continues Climate Litigation: Suing Private Farmer for Past Deforestation
Creators: name: Ramasci, Gabby
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Brazil has been taking major steps towards tackling climate change in the 21st century. In 2015, the US Brazil Climate Change Working Group was established in a cooperative defense against deforestation and carbon emissions, with Brazil “aiming to reach net zero emissions by 2050 and eliminate illegal deforestation by 2028.”[1] Natural disasters have plagued Brazil for decades, but this past decade has seen some of the most substantial impacts with back to back droughts in 2012 and 2014 affecting four million and 27 million individuals respectively, and a wildfire in 2019 affecting over 10 million individuals, with climate change being recognized as having “a significant impact on disaster management efforts.”[2] As more and more people are harmed by climate change, Brazil continues to strike down those promoting practices harming the environment. The next strategy Brazil has utilized is litigation against private entities. On September 12, 2023, Brazil’s Attorney General Office filed a lawsuit against a private livestock farmer for deforestation of the Amazon Forest. The deforestation is set between the years 2003 and 2016. The Attorney General Office is representing the Brazilian Federal Environmental Agency. In this case, it is alleged that there is “a direct cause and effect relationship between the emission of greenhouse gasses caused by the defendant and its contributions to the global climate emergency.” [3] This is not the first case regarding climate change that the Brazilian Federal Government has brought to court. In 2021, a similar case was filed by the Brazilian Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office regarding a cattle farmer’s deforestation activities. In both cases, the plaintiffs are seeking compensation. There is a carbon calculator software created by the Amazonian Research Institute that is used to calculate the amount of carbon released with deforestation. [4] The 2023 lawsuit has determined that one ton of carbon dioxide realized is equal to about $63.55, and a total damage of 292 million is what is currently on the table for proper compensation from the defendant. The presence of these lawsuits shows how dedicated Brazil is to their climate regulations. While many countries have some form of climate regulations, seeing how many actually adhere to them is what really matters. Brazil has made many efforts towards conserving its biodiversity but is still the largest greenhouse gas emitter of Latin America and the Caribbean.[5] It is through lawsuits like this one that Brazil is able to uphold the promises it has made to its nation and the world that greenhouse gas emissions will drop, and they will align with their net zero emissions goal by 2050. While there is much left to do to limit carbon emissions, it is intended that the compensation from cases such as this one can help the country advance their efforts against climate change.

Bionics Chemical Synapse
Creators: name: Thanapitak, Surachoke
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: This thesis presents the very first bionics chemical synapse which has the capability to sense the neurotransmitter (glutamate) and imitates the physiological behaviour of certain chemical synapse receptors (i.e. AMPA, NMDA, GABAA and GABAB). This bionics chemical synapse consists of two main parts: the glutamate ISFETs that act as neurotransmitter sensors and the current-mode CMOS circuits that have been designed to match the physiological behaviour of the chemical synapses. This bionics chemical synapse requires a sub-nano Siemens operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) to develop a low conductance gain for each chemical synapse receptor (0.1nS). A combination of two OTA designs was required to decrease the overall transconductance gain, which were: the bulk driven transistor and the drain current normalisation. To create the bionics chemical synapse, a neurotransmitter sensor is required as the chemical front-end for each receptor circuit. The sensor that was used is an enzyme-modified ISFET with glutamate oxidase immobilisation, to make the ISFET sensitive to glutamate ions. Additionally, a fast chemical perturbation technique called iontophoresis was applied to generate the glutamate stimulus, which represents the neurotransmitter signal. This signal has a one millisecond time duration. Finally, the current-mode CMOS circuits biased in the weak inversion region have been designed to match a biological model of the four mentioned chemical synapse receptors. Circuit techniques, such as the log domain filter and the translinear loop, were applied to realise the complex mathematical functions in the chemical synapse model. The measured response of the fabricated AMPA and NMDA receptors, where the glutamate ISFET was used to sensed the artificial neurotransmitter stimulus, closely matches with the circuit simulation results.

description: We develop a formulation for molecular dynamics, Langevin, and hybrid Monte Carlo algorithms in the recently proposed generalized ensemble that is based on a physically motivated realisation of Tsallis weights. The effectiveness of the methods are tested with an energy function for a protein system. Simulations in this generalized ensemble by the three methods are performed for a penta peptide, Met-enkephalin. For each algorithm, it is shown that from only one simulation run one can not only find the global-minimum-energy conformation but also obtain probability distributions in canonical ensemble at any temperature, which allows the calculation of any thermodynamic quantity as a function of temperature.

Make Models Great Again: Interactively generating simplified editable models from 3D-scanned dense meshes

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: 120101 Architectural Design
subject: FOS: Arts (arts, history of arts, performing arts, music)

description: 3D scanning is a technique that collects data from real-world objects to construct digital three-dimensional models. Following various cutting-edge applications in manufacturing and various industries, this reverse-engineering technique was creatively and famously adopted by architect Frank Gehry to digitize physical models to facilitate his further design.
Although integrating these techniques into the earlier phases of design has been a tempting topic in design practice, achieving it is not easy. In addition to generating a mesh using either professional scanners or easy-to-access photogrammetry software, the generated mesh must be simplified into a editable form that is friendly to human designers. While the first part is a relatively mature process, current methods for mesh simplification are either difficult to control during simplification, or generate hard-to-manipulate triangle meshes.
The purpose of this thesis is to present the world of design with a newly developed 3D reconstruction oriented design workflow. It’s core contribution is implementing, optimizing, and evaluating a new interactive mesh simplification workflow based on Variational Shape Approximation, which generates easier-to-control designer-friendly simplifications. High performance parallel computing techniques (such as CUDA) were explored and used to improve efficiency of this algorithm. A new modelling plug-in, iSimp for Autodesk Maya, is developed and evaluated by a group of designers in a workshop. It is found that the proposed mesh simplification workflow will greatly facilitate model digitization for creative designers, and more importantly, inspire new approaches in designing from physical world. Digital models, which are once great in their physical forms, will be made great again.

description: Abstract

The academic boycott of Israeli universities is a pivotal and contentious aspect of the broader Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, which seeks to apply pressure on Israel to change its policies and actions regarding the occupation of Palestinian territories and the treatment of Palestinians. This paper explores the academic boycott’s origins, implementation, and impact, focusing on the role of Israeli universities in supporting military and state policies deemed oppressive and discriminatory against Palestinians. The history and rationale behind the academic boycott are examined, tracing its roots back to the early 2000s and highlighting key moments and subsequent international endorsements. The literature review explores the complicity of Israeli academic institutions in occupying state policies and the significant actions by global academic bodies and universities severing ties with Israeli institutions. The methodology involves a comprehensive analysis of elite university websites, boycott-related sites, mainstream news, and social media channels to assess the boycott's impact and the ongoing debate surrounding it. The discussion addresses the challenges faced by academics supporting the boycott, such as career repercussions and political backlash, and critiques the perceived double standards of boycott opponents. The conclusion focuses on Arab academics' in the East and not only in the West to get closely involved and engaged in the academic boycott movement, emphasizing their role in both raising awareness and advocating this boycott in a time when their governments are normalising relations with the Israeli apartheid regime. The authors also call for continued advocacy, education, and solidarity among academics worldwide to sustain the momentum of the academic boycott and achieve the goals of promoting Palestinian rights and ending Israeli occupation and apartheid practices.

A Computational Study of Blood Flow and Vascular Nitric Oxide Transport
Creators: name: Plata Garcia, Ana M.
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: Atherosclerosis occurs in a spatially heterogeneous fashion within the arterial system. The patchy nature of the disease is thought to reflect spatial variation in haemodynamic factors such as wall shear stress (WSS) and in the concentration of vascular species. This thesis numerically investigates blood flow and vascular transport of the atheroprotective agent nitric oxide (NO) using a spectral/hp element method. Firstly, NO distribution is analysed within a parallel-plate flow chamber coated with endothelial cells. Contrary to the accepted hypothesis that NO concentration increases with WSS (as does NO production), it is observed that NO concentration depends on WSS in a non-monotonic fashion. Furthermore, these results emphasise the effect of convection on in vitro NO transport, which has been overlooked or misinterpreted in most previous computational studies. Secondly, blood flow and NO transport are investigated within a detailed representation of the rabbit thoracic aorta and its branches, which was reconstructed using high resolution computed tomography (CT) scan data of a vascular corrosion cast. The computed WSS distribution exhibits significant spatial heterogeneity, reflecting the complexity of the blood flow. In particular it is observed that two Dean-type vortices (associated with a skewed velocity profile) form in the aortic arch and propagate along the descending aorta. This results in streaks of WSS similar in nature to the fatty streaks of early stage atherosclerosis observed in mature rabbits. This finding provides further support for the hypothesis that blood flow mediates atherogenesis. The vascular distribution of NO is found to depend significantly on the relationship between NO production and WSS. Furthermore, it is concluded that mechanisms preventing NO consumption by haemoglobin (such as diffusional barriers) must exist in order for NO to exert its atheroprotective action. This study represents the first effort to model NO transport in a realistic representation of the major arteries.

Levels of p-adic automorphic forms and a p-adic Jacquet-Langlands correspondence
Creators: name: Newton, James
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: We investigate the arithmetic of p-adic automorphic forms for certain quaternion algebras over totally real fields (including GL2/Q), focussing on the question of the relationships between p-adic automorphic forms with different levels at a prime l different from p, and the relation between p-adic automorphic forms for (the multiplicative groups of) different quaternion algebras (i.e. a p-adic Jacquet–Langlands correspondence). In chapters 2 and 3 we prove results of ‘level raising’ type, showing that certain families of p-adic automorphic forms with level prime to l (l-old forms) intersect with a family of p-adic automorphic form with Iwahori level at l, where all the classical points in this second family are l-new. Chapter 2 works with definite quaternion algebras over Q, whilst chapter 3 works with GL2/Q. In chapter 3 the main tool is Emerton’s theory of completed cohomology. In chapter 4 we study indefinite quaternion algebras over totally real fields F, split at one infinite place, and prove level raising and lowering results. Finally, also in chapter 4, we give an example of a cohomological construction of p-adic Jacquet-Langlands functoriality, using completed cohomology.

description: The U.S. Air Force proposes to construct a site central between the TPK 47 and 52 facilities east of Tolicha Peak on the Nellis Air Force Range. The proposed location was surveyed for cultural resources by pedestrian transects spaced 15 m (49 ft) apart. The cultural resources reconnaissance failed to disclose any cultural resources in the survey area. Consequently, the proposed construction should not adversely effect any known historic properties .

description: Interpretation of NDE data can be unreliable and difficult due to the complex interaction between the instrument, object under inspection and noise and uncertainties about the system or data. A common method of reducing the complexity and volume of data is to use thresholds. However, many of these methods are based on making subjective assessments from the data or assumptions about the system which can be source of error. Reducing data whilst retaining important information is difficult and normally compromises have to be made. This thesis has developed methods that are based on sound mathematical and scientific principles and require the minimum use of assumptions and subjective choices. Optimisation has been shown to reduce data acquired from a multilayer composite panel and hence show the ply layers. The problem can be ill-posed. It is possible to obtain a solution close to optimum and obtain confidence on the result. Important factors are: the size of the search space, representation of the data and any assumptions and choices made. Further work is required in the use of model based optimisation to measure layer thicknesses from a metal laminate panel. A number of important factors that must be addressed have been identified. Two novel approaches to removing features from Transient Eddy-Current (TEC) data have been shown to improve the visibility of defects. The best approach to take depends on the available knowledge of the system. Principal Value Decomposition (PVD) has been shown to remove layer interface reflections from ultrasonic data. However, PVD is not suited to all problems such as the TEC data described. PVD is best suited in the later stages of data reduction. This thesis has demonstrated new methods and a roadmap for solving multivariate problems, these methods may be applied to a wide range of data and problems.

description: The U. S. Air Force proposes to relocate an electronic system on an existing facility pad (P-21) on the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) in Nye County, Nevada (Figures 1 and 2). This site was chosen because it already has a concrete pad on which the system can be positioned and the site is already connected to the fiber optic network. Furthermore, there is an existing boresite tower pad associated with the P-21 pad that can be used by the new system. The existing P-21 facility pad, and the fiber optic line to it, was originally surveyed for cultural resources by Henton and Rennie (1985) when they examined a 30 meter (100 ft) wide and 100 meter (328 ft) long corridor to a 60 meter x 60 meter pad (3,600 m2; 0.9 acres). They did not discover any cultural resources in this area and recommended no effect on historic properties from its construction and use.

description: Data clustering is an important technique for data visualization and statistical data analysis. Using data clustering technique for geo-located data analysis and visualization has been shown to be useful in many practical domains. Although there are numerous studies for data clustering algorithms, the implementations and applications based on these algorithms are rare and inadequate, especially for web-based data visualization services.
In this research, a new web-based interactive data clustering prototype is proposed for geo-located data visualization. The necessary web-based infrastructure for geo-located data analysis and visualization is designed and implemented at first. And then the new interactive data clustering prototype using multi-dimensional K-Means algorithm is implemented on the existing infrastructure.
In order to assess whether the new prototype can contribute meaningfully to architectural design and urban studies, qualified users with urban study or architectural backgrounds are invited to use the prototype and then make their comments and evaluations. To make it clear how this new prototype might apply in real world settings, an application scenario in which the user might interact with the prototype is provided and analyzed.

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: We studied the dynamical environment in the vicinity of the primary of the binary asteroid. The gravitational field of the primary is calculated by the polyhedron model with observational data of the irregular shape. The equilibrium points, zero velocity surfaces, as well as Jacobi integral have been investigated. The results show that the deviations of equilibrium points are large from the principal axes of moment of inertia. We take binary asteroid 41 Daphne and S 2008 41 1 for example. The distribution of topological cases of equilibrium points around 41 Daphne is different from other asteroids. The topological cases of the outer equilibrium points E1 E4 are Case 2, Case 5, Case 2, and Case 1. The topological case of the inner equilibrium point E5 is Case 1. Among the four outer equilibrium points E1 E4, E4 is linearly stable and other outer equilibrium points are unstable. Considering the shape variety of the body from Daphne to a sphere, we calculated the zero velocity surfaces and the locations as well as eigenvalues of equilibrium points. It is found that the topological case of the outer equilibrium point E2 change from Case 5 to Case 1, and its stability change from unstable to linearly stable. Using the gravitational force acceleration calculated by the polyhedron model with the irregular shape, we simulated the orbit for the moonlet in the potential of 41 Daphne.

description: The target area, present for at least 15 years, wIII be converted to a Cluster Bomb Unit Grid. The impacts would be larger in diameter than the previous target, thus the APE were determined and inventoried as involve an APE of 23 acres. Twenty percent of the area had been previously disturbed by target uses. Several armor tanks remain on-site. Sufficient access is present.
S Duality and Dyonic p-Brane Solutions in Type II String Theory

description: We show how a solitonic ``magnetically'' charged $p$-brane solution of a given supergravity theory, with the magnetic charge carried by an antisymmetric tensor gauge field, can be generalized to a dyonic solution. We discuss the cases of ten-dimensional and eleven-dimensional supergravity in more detail and a new dyonic five-brane solution in ten dimensions is given. Unlike the purely electrically or magnetically charged five-brane solution the dyonic five-brane contains non-zero Ramond--Ramond fields and is therefore an intrinsically type~II solution. The solution preserves half of the type~II spacetime supersymmetries. It is obtained by applying a solution-generating $SL(2,\R) \times SL(2,\R)$ $S$~duality transformation to the purely magnetically charged five-brane solution. One of the $SL(2,\R)$ duality transformations is basically an extension to the type~II case of the six-dimensional $\Z_2$ string/string duality. We also present an action underlying the type IIB supergravity theory.

Development and application of a simulated urban system for geographical studies of environmental health
Creators: name: Fecht, Daniela
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Urban areas are highly dynamic and diverse systems and the interactions and networks within an urban area are, at present, only partly understood, although some of the most important impacts on human health occur in these areas. It is essential, therefore, to develop a deeper understanding of these urban dynamics and processes especially with regard to exposure and health risk assessment. This thesis describes the development and application of an urban SImulation for ENvironmental health Analysis (SIENA). SIENA provides a controlled, simplified urban environment to develop and test spatial epidemiological concepts and models, to simulate processes and interactions relating to environmental exposure and to explore theoretical and methodological problems in the spatial analysis of environmental health. The development of the simulated urban system focuses on identifying and quantifying fundamental processes and inter-dependencies in the structure of urban areas in Great Britain. Twelve cities are chosen as sample cities and their spatial data structure (topography, transport network, land cover) and relationships between these structures and the urban population are statistically analysed. Based on the results of the statistical analysis SIENA is developed within a Geographic Information System (GIS) using probabilistic models and spatial analysis tools. Beside the identified core structure, topography, transport network, land cover and population, additional data such as traffic flow, air pollution monitoring networks or emissions from industrial sources amongst others are modelled and incorporated into SIENA. To demonstrate the potential of the simulation, SIENA is applied in two case studies both focusing on the misclassification of human exposure to urban air pollution. The first case study explores the representativeness of various air pollution monitoring networks and the resulting implications for exposure assessments. For the second case study, personal exposure is simulated within SIENA and then compared to the use of a location-based exposure proxy and the potential exposure misclassification spatially analysed.
