description: Frequency dissemination and synchronization in free space plays an important role in global navigation satellite system, radio astronomy and synthetic aperture radar. In this paper, we demonstrate a portable radio frequency dissemination scheme via free space using microwave antennas. The setup has a good environment adaptability and high dissemination stability. The frequency signal is disseminated at different distances ranging from 10 to 640 m with a fixed 10 Hz locking bandwidth, and the scaling law of dissemination stability on distance and averaging time is discussed. The preliminary extrapolation shows that the dissemination stability may reach $1\times10^{-12}/s$ in ground-to-satellite synchronization, which far exceeds all present methods, and is worthy for further study.

description: Out-of-plane, nanoscale periodic corrugations are observed in the dynamic fracture surface of brittle bulk metallic glasses with fracture toughness approaching that of silica glasses. A model based on the meniscus instability and plastic zone theory is used to explain such dynamic crack instability. The results indicate that the local softening mechanism in the fracture is an essential ingredient for controlling the formation of the unique corrugations, and might provide a new insight into the origin of fracture surface roughening in brittle materials.

Specializing to the case of transversally homogeneous and boost-invariant longitudinal expansion of the viscous medium, we compare the results obtained using the above methods with those obtained from the exact solution of the massive 0+1d relativistic Boltzmann equation in the relaxation-time approximation. We show that compared to the 14-moment approximation, the hydrodynamic transport coefficients obtained by employing the Chapman-Enskog method leads to better agreement with the exact solution of the relativistic Boltzmann equation.

Numerical simulation of pulsating turbulent channel flow
Creators: name: Scotti, Alberto
name: Piomelli, Ugo
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2001

description: Direct and large-eddy simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations are used to study the pulsating flow in a channel. The cases examined span a wide range of frequencies of the driving pressure gradient, and encompass different physical behaviors, from the quasi-Stokes flow observed at high frequencies, to a quasisteady behavior at the lowest ones. The validity of the dynamic Smagorinsky model to study this kind of unsteady flow is established by a posteriori comparison with direct simulations and experimental data. It is shown that the fluctuations generated in the near-wall region by the unsteady pressure gradient do not propagate beyond a certain distance l t from the wall, which can be estimated quite accurately by a simple eddyviscosity argument. No substantial departure from the Stokes regime at very high frequency (ω + as high as 0.1) is observed. The time-dependent characteristics of the flow are examined in detail, as well as the topology of the coherent structures.
Automatic Modeling of Knee-Joint Motion For The Virtual Reality Dynamic Anatomy (VRDA) Tool
Creators: name: Rolland, Jannick

name: Baillot, Yohan
name: Wright, Donna
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2000

description: This paper presents a method and algorithms for automatic modeling of anatomical joint motion. The method relies on collision detection to achieve stable positions and orientations of the knee joint by evaluating the relative motion of the tibia with respect to the femur (for example, flexion-extension). The stable positions then become the basis for a look-up table employed in the animation of the joint. The strength of this method lies in its robustness to animate any normal anatomical joint. It is also expandable to other anatomical joints given a set of kinematic constraints for the joint type as well as a high-resolution, static, 3-D model of the joint. The demonstration could be patient specific if a person's real anatomical data could be obtained from a medical imaging modality such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Otherwise, the demonstration requires the scaling of a generic joint based on patient characteristics. Compared with current teaching strategies, this Virtual Reality Dynamic Anatomy (VRDA) tool aims to greatly enhance students’ understanding
of 3-D human anatomy and joint motions. A preliminary demonstration of
the optical superimposition of a generic knee joint on a leg model is shown.

description: We introduce and present preliminary results for a hybrid display system combining head-mounted and projector-based displays. Our work is motivated by a surgical training application, where it is necessary to simultaneously provide both a high-fidelity view of a central close-up task (the surgery) and visual awareness of objects and events in the surrounding environment. In particular, for trauma surgeons it would be valuable to learn to work in an environment that is realistically filled with both necessary and distracting objects and events.
High-energy limit of collision-induced false vacuum decay

description: We develop a consistent semiclassical description of field-theoretic collision-induced tunneling at arbitrary high collision energies. As a playground we consider a (1+1)-dimensional false vacuum decay initiated by a collision of N particles at energy E, paying special attention to the realistic case of N=2 particles. We demonstrate that the cross section of this process is exponentially suppressed at all energies. Moreover, the respective suppressesion exponent F_N(E) exhibits a specific behavior which is significant for our semiclassical method and assumed to be general: it decreases with energy, reaches absolute minimum F=F_min(N) at a certain threshold energy E=E_rt(N), and stays constant at higher energies. We show that the minimal suppression F_min(N) and threshold energy can be evaluated using a special class of semiclassical solutions which describe exponentially suppressed transitions but nevertheless evolve in real time. Importantly, we argue that the cross section at energies above E_rt(N) is computed perturbatively in the background of the latter solutions, and the terms of this perturbative expansion stay bounded in the infinite-energy limit. Transitions in the high-energy regime proceed via emission of many soft quanta with total energy E_rt; the energy excess E-E_rt remains in the colliding particles till the end of the process.

description: OBJECTIVES: To present the way the Brazilian government is addressing the prevention of nutrition-related non-communicable diseases (NR-NCDs). RESULTS: Innovative legislative and regulatory actions, mass communications and capacity building have been combined to create a comprehensive approach for addressing poor dietary and activity patterns in Brazil that are leading to obesity and NR-NCDs. Included are new nutrition-related initiatives in the labelling area, shifts in the types of food purchased for the school food programme, use of mass media to communicate components of the food guidelines, establishment of a smart shopping initiative, and training of teachers and health workers. CONCLUSIONS: The entire effort has taken several years to get underway. This paper describes the process and some of the initial changes seen.

description: We consider an extension of the Standard Model with an arbitrary number $N$ of Higgs doublets (NHDM), and calculate their contribution to the oblique parameters $S$ and $T$. We examine the possible limitations on $N$ from precision measurements of these parameters. In view of the complexity of the general case of NHDM, we analyze several benchmark scenarios for the Higgs mass spectrum, identifying the lightest CP-even Higgs with the Higgs-like particle recently observed at the LHC with the mass of $\sim 125$ GeV. The rest of the Higgses are put above the mass scale of $\sim 600$ GeV, below which the LHC experiments do not detect any Higgs-like signals except for the former famous one. We show that, in a scenario, with all the heavy Higgses degenerate at any scale, there are no limitations on the number $N$ of the Higgs doublets. However, upper limits appear for certain not completely degenerate configurations of the heavy Higgses.

description: OBJECTIVE: To review the nutrition policies and efforts related to nutrition transition in China. DESIGN AND SETTING: This paper reviews the nutrition policy and activities of China to prevent and control diet-related non-communicable diseases (DR-NCDs). Data came from the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Agriculture, the State Council and some cross-sectional surveys. RESULTS: China is undergoing a remarkable, but undesirable, rapid transition towards a stage of the nutrition transition characterised by high rates of DR-NCDs in a very short time. Some public sector Chinese organisations have combined their efforts to create the initial stages of systematic attempts to reduce these problems. These efforts, which focus on both under- and overnutrition, include the new Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents and the Chinese Pagoda and The National Plan of Action for Nutrition in China, issued by the highest body of the government, the State Council. There are selected agricultural sector activities that are laudable and few other systematic efforts that are impacting behaviour yet. In the health sector, efforts related to reducing hypertension and diabetes are becoming more widespread, but there is limited work in the nutrition sector. This paper points to some unique strengths from past Chinese efforts and to an agenda for the next several decades. CONCLUSIONS: China is trying in its efforts to prevent and control the development of DR-NCDs but effects are limited. Systematic multi-sector co-operation is needed to effectively prevent and control DR-NCDs inside and outside the health sector.

Fostering Sustainable Nutrition Behavior through Gamification

description: The food choices consumers make have considerable consequences for the environment. In the Western world, about one-third of all negative environmental impact is directly related to food consumption. Although many consumers are concerned about environmental issues, this frequently has little effect on actual nutritional behavior and new approaches are needed to convert good intentions into action. Gamification could be a possible way to encourage both self-efficacy on the part of the consumer as well as normalizing such behavior socially. In this paper, central elements of the behavioral change model HAPA (health action process approach) are introduced to a gamification concept. The underlying frameworks of both concepts are then analyzed in order to develop propositions for use in the design of an effective gamification setting to promote sustainable nutritional behavior (SNB).
Superconducting and charge-density-wave orders in the spin-fermion model: a comparative analysis

description: We present comparative analysis of superconducting and charge-density-wave orders in the spin-fluctuation scenario for the cuprates. That spin-fluctuation exchange gives rise to d-wave superconductivity is well known. Several groups recently argued that the same spin-mediated interaction may also account for charge-density-wave order with momenta $(Q,0)$ or $(0,Q)$, detected in underdoped cuprates. This has been questioned on the basis that charge-density-wave channel mixes fermions from both nested and anti-nested regions on the Fermi surface, and fermions in the anti-nested region do not have a natural tendency to form a bound state, even if the interaction is attractive. We show that anti-nesting is not an obstacle for charge order, but to see this one needs to go beyond the conventional Eliashberg approximation. We show that in the prefect nesting/antinesting case, when the velocities of hot fermions are either parallel or antiparallel, the onset temperatures in superconducting and charge-density-wave channels are of comparable strength for any magnetic correlation length $ξ$. The superconducting $T_{\rm sc}$ is larger than $T_{\rm cdw}$, but only numerically. When the velocities of hot fermions are not strictly parallel/antiparallel, $T_{\rm cdw}$ progressively decreases as $ξ$ decreases and vanishes at some critical $ξ$.

Our aim is to use rotational evolution models to constrain the mass loss rates in stellar winds and to predict how their properties evolve with time on the main-sequence. Methods: We construct a rotational evolution model that is driven by observed rotational distributions of young stellar clusters. Fitting the free parameters in our model allows us to predict how wind mass loss rate depends on stellar mass, radius, and rotation. We couple the results to the wind model developed in Paper I of this series to predict how wind properties evolve on the main-sequence. Results: We estimate that wind mass loss rate scales with stellar parameters as $\dot{M}_\star \propto R_\star^2 Ω_\star^{1.33} M_\star^{-3.36}$. We estimate that at young ages, the solar wind likely had a mass loss rate that is an order of magnitude higher than that of the current solar wind. This leads to the wind having a higher density at younger ages; however, the magnitude of this change depends strongly on how we scale wind temperature. Due to the spread in rotation rates, young stars show a large range of wind properties at a given age. This spread in wind properties disappears as the stars age. Conclusions: There is a large uncertainty in our knowledge of the evolution of stellar winds on the main-sequence, due both to our lack of knowledge of stellar winds and the large spread in rotation rates at young ages. Given the sensitivity of planetary atmospheres to stellar wind and radiation conditions, these uncertainties can be significant for our understanding of the evolution of planetary environments.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Synthese und Reaktivität der jungen und relativ unerforschten Substanzklasse (quasi-)linearer 3d-Metall(I)-Komplexe. Durch die elektronisch und koordinativ ungesättigten Metallzentren sind die Verbindungen sehr reaktiv, was in ersten Studien anhand der Reaktion gegenüber kleinen Molekülen und Substraten gezeigt werden konnte. Einblicke in ihr magnetisches Verhalten deuten ebenfalls auf ein vielversprechendes Potenzial hin. In der Literatur wurden bisher allerdings nur vereinzelte Spezies beschrieben. Diese Arbeit trägt zur Verbesserung des allgemeinen Verständnisses über die strukturellen sowie magnetischen Eigenschaften und Reaktivitäten Silylamid-basierter Metall(I)-Komplexe sowie deren Metall(II)-Vorläufer bei. Zusätzlich wurde das Spektrum linearer 3d-Metall(II)-Komplexe auf ein Derivat mit einem Phosphor-basierten Ligandsystem erweitert.
description: The present work deals with the synthesis and reactivity of the young and relatively unexplored substance class of (quasi-)linear 3d-metal(I) complexes. Due to the electronically and coordinatively unsaturated metal centers, the compounds are highly reactive as demonstrated in initial studies based on their reactivity towards small molecules and substrates. Insights into their magnetic behavior also indicate promising potential. However, only rare examples have been described in literature so far. This work contributes to the general understanding of the structural as well as magnetic properties and reactivities of silylamide-based metal(I) complexes and their metal(II) precursors. In addition, the spectrum of linear 3d metal(II) complexes has been extended to a complex with a phosphorus-based ligand system.

description: It is well known that vacuum equation of arbitrary Lovelock order for static spacetime ultimately reduces to a single algebraic equation, we show that the same continues to hold true for pure Lovelock gravity of arbitrary order $N$ for topology ${\bf S^{(n)} \times S^{(n)}}$. We thus obtain pure Lovelock static black hole solutions with two-sphere topology for any order $N$, and in particular we study in full detail the third and fourth order Lovelock black holes. It is remarkable that thermodynamical stability of black hole discerns between odd and even $N$, and consequently between negative and positive $Λ$ and it favours the former while rejecting the latter.

description: Objective: To examine associations of the frequency of eating at fast-food restaurants with demographic, behavioural and psychosocial factors and dietary intake in African American adults. Methods: Self-reported data from a population-based cross-sectional survey of 658 African Americans, aged 20–70 years, in North Carolina. An 11-page questionnaire assessed eating at fast-food restaurants, demographic, behavioural and diet-related psychosocial factors, and dietary intake (fruit, vegetable, total fat and saturated fat intakes, and fat-related dietary behaviours). Results: The participants were aged 43.9 ^ 11.6 years (mean ^ standard deviation), 41% were male, 37% were college graduates and 75% were overweight or obese. Seventy-six per cent reported eating at fast-food restaurants during the previous 3 months: 4% usually, 22% often and 50% sometimes. Frequency of eating at fast-food restaurants was positively associated with total fat and saturated fat intakes and fat-related dietary behaviours (P , 0.0001) and inversely associated with vegetable intake (P , 0.05). For example, mean daily fat intake was 39.0 g for usually/often respondents and 28.3 g for those reporting rare/never eating at fast-food restaurants. Participants who reported usual/often eating at fast-food restaurants were younger, never married, obese, physically inactive and multivitamin non-users (all P , 0.01). Frequency of eating at fast-food restaurants was positively associated with fair/poor self-rated health, weak belief in a diet–cancer relationship, low self-efficacy for healthy eating, weight dissatisfaction, and perceived difficulties of preparing healthy meals and ordering healthy foods in restaurants (all P , 0.05). Frequency of eating at fast-food restaurants did not differ significantly by sex, education, smoking, ability to purchase healthy foods or knowledge of the Food Guide Pyramid. Conclusions: Eating at fast-food restaurants is associated with higher fat and lower vegetable intakes in African Americans. Interventions to reduce fast-food consumption and obesity in African Americans should consider demographic and behavioural characteristics and address attitudes about diet–disease relationships and convenience barriers to healthy eating.

description: Brachial plexus nerve blocks are performed to treat patients with chronic pain referable to the brachial plexus. The needle insertion and trajectory are based on palpation of surface landmarks. Occasionally, the surface landmarks are difficult to identify owing to body habitus or anatomic alterations secondary to surgery or radiation therapy. The intent of this manuscript is to describe a technique for brachial plexus block guided with computed tomography and to report our initial results for regional pain management.

description: We report on combined neutron and resonant x-ray scattering results, identifying the nature of the spin-orbital ground state and magnetic excitations in LuVO3 as driven by the orbital parameter. In particular, we distinguish between models based on orbital Peierls dimerization, taken as a signature of quantum effects in orbitals, and Jahn-Teller distortions, in favor of the latter. In order to solve this long-standing puzzle, polarized neutron beams were employed as a prerequisite in order to solve details of the magnetic structure, which allowed quantitative intensity-analysis of extended magnetic excitation data sets. The results of this detailed study enabled us to draw definite conclusions about classical vs quantum behavior of orbitals in this system and to discard the previous claims about quantum effects dominating the orbital physics of LuVO3 and similar systems.
