description: We measure the environmental dependence, where environment is defined by the distance to the third nearest neighbor, of multiple galaxy properties inside the Environmental COntext (ECO) catalog. We focus primarily on void galaxies, which we define as the $10 \%$ of galaxies having the lowest local density. We compare the properties of void and non-void galaxies: baryonic mass, color, fractional stellar mass growth rate (FSMGR), morphology, and gas-to-stellar-mass ratio (estimated from a combination of HI data and photometric gas fractions calibrated with the RESOLVE survey). Our void galaxies typically have lower baryonic masses than galaxies in denser environments, and they display the properties expected of a lower mass population: they have more late-types, are bluer, have higher FSMGR, and are more gas rich. We control for baryonic mass and investigate the extent to which void galaxies are different at fixed mass. Void galaxies are bluer, more gas-rich, and more star forming at fixed mass than non-void galaxies, which is a possible signature of galaxy assembly bias. Furthermore, we show that these trends persist even at fixed mass and morphology, and we find that voids host a distinct population of early-types that are bluer and more star-forming than the typical red and quenched early-types. In addition to these empirical observational results, we also present theoretical results from mock catalogs with built-in galaxy assembly bias. We show that a simple matching of galaxy properties to (sub)halo properties, such as mass and age, can recover the observed environmental trends in ECO galaxies.

description: We consider the propagation of a matter wavepacket of two-level atoms through a square potential created by a super-Gaussian laser beam. We explore the matter wave analog of Goos-Hänchen shift within the framework of atom optics where the roles of atom and light is exchanged with respect to conventional optics. Using a vector theory, where atoms are treated as particles possessing two internal spin components, we show that not only large negative but also large positive Goos-Hänchen shifts can occur in the reflected atomic beam.

Subjects: Human Resource Development, Employees' Performance, Problem Solving, Competitive Advantage

description: The study examined the impact of human resource development on employees’ performance from a theoretical perspective.  The employee performance components identified are ability to meet deadlines, quality of work, teamwork, and problem solving. While the dimensions of human resource development identified are mentoring, training, performance appraisal, and compensation/benefits. The study notes that a well-coordinated and implemented HRD practices results to improved organizations productivity and individual employees’ performance. The study also notes that implementation of human resource development leads to improved organizational efficiency and development of innovative competitive advantages for organizations. The study concluded that human resource development programmes serves as a critical organizational strategy for improving employees’ effectiveness, productivity, satisfaction, motivation, and innovation at work. In addition, the implementation of effective human resources development programs helps to create the workforce competency that enables the organization to function efficiently. It is recommended that managements should make human resource development a serious aspect of their overall organizational strategy, and also support all activities put in place to develop the employees in order to ensure that employees develop the necessary competencies and capacity needed to drive organizational performance and survival. Furthermore, organizations should constantly train and retrain their employees and management to develop vital conceptual, technical and interpersonal competences that is vital for high positive outcomes in organizations. Organizations should devise effective plans in investing in the various aspect of human capital as this does not only help them to attain greater performance but achieve long-term survival.
MODELING AND CONTROL OF AN INFINITELY VARIABLE SPEED CONVERTER WITH APPLICATION TO WIND TURBINES

Infinitely Variable Speed Convertor

description: Different types of continuously variable transmission (CVT) have been developed for vehicle and wind turbine applications, which can generate constant-frequency current without using power converters. An infinitely variable speed converter (IVSC) is a type of CVT that can achieve a zero speed ratio and transmit a large torque at low speed ratios. An IVSC with drivers that convert an eccentric motion of cams to a concentric motion of the output shaft through one-way bearings is introduced, and an active control system with a combined feedback and feed forward control that can automatically control the speed ratio of the transmission is developed. The kinematic model of the IVSC is derived and fitted by a polynomial function to serve as the nonlinear feed forward function in the control law. The benefit of the nonlinear feed forward function is exhibited by using it in the control of the Variable Electromotive-Force Generator (VEG). A dynamic model of the IVSC is derived to investigate the effect of the dynamic load on the input and output speeds. Static and dynamic tests were conducted to validate the kinematic model of the IVSC. The variation of the average output speed per revolution of the output shaft is 0.56% with respect to the desired output speed in the simulation and 0.91% in the experiments.

description: The thesis is a biographical approach about the late musician from Virginia, John Jackson. The thesis details his musical origins as well as his later career as a professional musician as a ""songster,"" or Piedmont blues and folk music guitarist, banjoist, and singer. Though Jackson became a well-traveled musician, he also remained a gravedigger throughout his life. Topics also explored are Jackson's connection to African-American civil rights, history, and culture. The thesis argues that Jackson most consistently supported the African-American civil rights movement, as well as African-American history and culture, by playing the blues, which is a musical form that inherently resists white cultural domination. In addition to his playing of the blues, Jackson subtly supported African-American civil rights, history, and culture through other activities such as musical performances on behalf on causes relating to African-American civil rights, history, and culture. Jackson led a complex life of manual labor and musical performance and re-emerged as a performer during the tumultuous mid-1960s, a time of great change in civil rights for African Americans.

description: The few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been recently suggested as a platform for controlled unconventional superconductivity. We study the manifestations of unconventional triplet pairing in the density of states of a disordered TMD based monolayer. The conventional singlet pairing attraction is assumed to be the dominant pairing interaction. We map the phase diagrams of disordered Ising superconductors in the plane of temperature and the in-plane magnetic field. The latter suppresses singlet and promote triplet correlations. The triplet order parameters of a trivial (non-trivial) symmetry compete (cooperate) with the singlet order parameter which gives rise to a rich phase diagram. We locate the model-dependent phase boundaries and compute the order parameters in each of the distinct phases. With this information, we obtain the density of states by solving the Gorkov equation. The triplet components of the order parameters may change an apparent width of the density of states by significantly increasing the critical field. The triplet components of the order parameters lead to the density of states broadening significantly exceeding the broadening induced by magnetic field and disorder in the singlet superconductor.

The iron K feature in Narrow Line Seyfert 1's: evidence for a P Cygni profile?

description: Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies are generally accreting at high fractions of the Eddington limit. They can show complex X-ray spectra, with a strong `soft excess' below 2 keV and a sharp drop at ~7 keV. There is strong evidence linking the soft excess to either reflection or absorption from relativistic, partially ionized material close to the black hole. The reflection models can also simultaneously produce the 7 keV feature from fluorescent iron Ka line emission from the disc. Here we show that absorption can also produce a sharp feature at 7 keV from the P Cygni profile which results from absorption/scattering/emission of He- and H-like iron Ka resonance lines in the wind. We demonstrate this explicitly by fitting the iron feature seen in XMM-Newton data from 1H 0707-495 to a P Cygni profile. The resulting column and ionization required to produce this feature are probably larger than those needed to produce the soft excess. Nonetheless, the absorbing material could still be a single structure with stratified ionization such as that produced by the ionization instability.

description: We present docExtractor, a generic approach for extracting visual elements such as text lines or illustrations from historical documents without requiring any real data annotation. We demonstrate it provides high-quality performances as an off-the-shelf system across a wide variety of datasets and leads to results on par with state-of-the-art when fine-tuned. We argue that the performance obtained without fine-tuning on a specific dataset is critical for applications, in particular in digital humanities, and that the line-level page segmentation we address is the most relevant for a general purpose element extraction engine. We rely on a fast generator of rich synthetic documents and design a fully convolutional network, which we show to generalize better than a detection-based approach. Furthermore, we introduce a new public dataset dubbed IlluHisDoc dedicated to the fine evaluation of illustration segmentation in historical documents.

description: Carbon Nano-Structures (CNSs) infused in-situ on glass and carbon fiber filament bundles via Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) were implemented in attempt to improve the Mode I and Mode II transverse toughness and crack propagation resistance of corresponding unidirectional composite plies.  Fractography was performed on failed specimens using optical and electron microscopy.  Also, Mode I R-curves were developed to analyze the specimen's resistance to crack extension once a critical crack developed.  Lastly, Digital Image Correlation was performed to determine the local displacement field near the crack tip.  The glass fiber panels with CNS growth showed a reduction in Mode I transverse toughness and minimal reduction in Mode II transverse toughness compared to panels with no CNS growth.    The Carbon Fiber panel showed improvements in transverse toughness for both the Mode I and Mode II loading regime of 21.8 % and 31.8 % respectively.

description: This paper seeks ring-theoretic conditions of an integral domain R that reflect in the Clifford property or Boolean property of its class semigroup S(R), that is, the semigroup of the isomorphy classes of the nonzero (integral) ideals of R with the operation induced by multiplication. Precisely, in Section 3, we characterize integrally closed domains with Boolean class semigoup; in this case, S(R) identifies with the Boolean semigroup formed of all fractional overrings of R. In Section 4, we investigate Noetherian-like settings where the Clifford and Boolean properties of S(R) coincide with (Lipman and Sally-Vasconcelos) stability conditions; a main feature is that the Clifford property forces t-locally Noetherian domains to be one-dimensional Noetherian domains. Section 5 studies the transfer of the Clifford and Boolean properties to various pullback constructions. Our results lead to new families of integral domains with Clifford or Boolean class semigroup, moving therefore beyond the contexts of integrally closed domains or Noetherian domains.

description: It was observed that wind-induced vibrations had created destructive effects on corner balcony railings in an oceanfront condominium building. The vibrations of the railings caused disconnections of welds at the ends of the pickets, and noise was generated, which created discomfort to the residents of the building. This work presents a method to mitigate the wind-induced vibrations and noise of the balcony railings. The noise generation mechanisms were investigated; buffeting and vortex-induced vibration were identified as the two main mechanisms. A finite element (FE) model of a railing was developed using commercial FE software ABAQUS. The FE model was validated by modal testing results and used as a basis for later modifications. Design modifications were made for the railing and simulated using ABAQUS; increasing the stiffness of the railing was proposed as a solution based on the FE simulation results and the constraints imposed. A modified railing was installed on one of the corner balconies according to the solution and tested. The experimental results and on-site monitoring on the modified railing indicate that the noise issue has been resolved, and all of the affected railings were demolished and replaced with the modified railings.

description: Background: In V. cholerae, the biogenesis of capsule polysaccharide is poorly understood. The elucidation of capsule structure and biogenesis is critical to understanding the evolution of surface polysaccharide and the internal relationship between the capsule and LPS in this species. V. cholerae serogroup O31 NRT36S, a human pathogen that produces a heat-stable enterotoxin (NAG-ST), is encapsulated. Here, we report the covalent structure and studies of the biogenesis of the capsule in V. cholerae NRT36S. Results: The structure of the capsular (CPS) polysaccharide was determined by high resolution NMR spectroscopy and shown to be a complex structure with four residues in the repeating subunit. The gene cluster of capsule biogenesis was identified by transposon mutagenesis combined with whole genome sequencing data (GenBank accession DQ915177). The capsule gene cluster shared the same genetic locus as that of the O-antigen of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biogenesis gene cluster. Other than V. cholerae O139, this is the first V. cholerae CPS for which a structure has been fully elucidated and the genetic locus responsible for biosynthesis identified. Conclusion: The co-location of CPS and LPS biosynthesis genes was unexpected, and would provide a mechanism for simultaneous emergence of new O and K antigens in a single strain. This, in turn, may be a key element for V. cholerae to evolve new strains that can escape immunologic detection by host populations.

description: The large subunit of the ribosome contains the site at which peptide bonds are formed in the process of translation.  Another striking feature of the large subunit is the exit tunnel.  This feature begins at the site of peptide bond formation traversing 100 angstroms before opening to the cytosolic environment on the opposite side of the large subunit.  It has been known for some time that the ribosome exit tunnel is the site of action for MLS antibiotics, one such example being erythromycin.  More recently the exit tunnel has been shown to be involved in sensing and regulating the egress of newly synthesized peptides.  As the exact mechanisms by which either macrolides such as erythromycin or nascent peptides inhibit ribosome function is not known, understanding how both of these regulatory activities are accomplished remains an important challenge in understanding ribosome structure and function. Through mutational analysis and the use of translational reporters, I have obtained results which show that, contrary to previously proposed models, the extended loops of these two proteins are not required for ribosomal function, cell survival, or SecM-mediated translational arrest. I also present work showing that the SecM and Crb(CmlA) pausing peptides respond differentially to mutations in L4 and L22.  In addition, I have established that the presence of erythromycin inhibits the pausing activity of the SecM peptide.  This inhibition takes place even when the pause motif is located well beyond the 6 to 8 amino acid length normally associated with erythromycin inhibition and is dependant on the drug binding.  In addition I present evidence that the ability of erythromycin to inhibit SecM pausing occurs translationally and is not attributed to the ribosomes being assembled in the presence of the drug.

description: We report on the pressure-induced unconventional superconductivity in the heavy-fermion antiferromagnet CeIn3 by means of nuclear-quadrupole-resonance (NQR) studies conducted under a high pressure. The temperature and pressure dependences of the NQR spectra have revealed a first-order quantum-phase transition (QPT) from an AFM to PM at a critical pressure Pc=2.46 GPa. Despite the lack of an AFM quantum critical point in the P-T phase diagram, we highlight the fact that the unconventional SC occurs in both phases of the AFM and PM. The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 in the AFM phase have provided evidence for the uniformly coexisting AFM+SC phase. In the HF-PM phase where AFM fluctuations are not developed, 1/T1 decreases without the coherence peak just below Tc, followed by a power-law like T dependence that indicates an unconventional SC with a line-node gap. Remarkably, Tc has a peak around Pc in the HF-PM phase as well as in the AFM phase. In other words, an SC dome exists with a maximum value of Tc = 230 mK around Pc, indicating that the origin of the pressure-induced HF SC in CeIn3 is not relevant to AFM spin fluctuations but to the emergence of the first-order QPT in CeIn3. When the AFM critical temperature is suppressed at the termination point of the first-order QPT, Pc = 2.46 GPa, the diverging AFM spin-density fluctuations emerge at the critical point from the AFM to PM. The results with CeIn3 leading to a new type of quantum criticality deserve further theoretical investigations.

description: Sensitization can occur in 5000 series aluminum alloys, particularly under marine environments, leading to undesirable stress corrosion cracking. Ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) is a severe plastic deformation surface treatment that curbs sensitization. The objectives of this work are to measure mechanical properties of UIT treated sensitized and non-sensitized 5456-H116 Al using microsamples, extracted varying distances from the UIT surface and characterize the controlling phenomenological mechanisms. Fractographic analysis of specimen ductile fracture failure surfaces explains the measured mechanical property variations as a function of sensitization (or not), processing (UIT and Welded), and distance from the UIT treated plate surface. Micro X-ray tomography is used to characterize secondary Mg particles in 5000 series Al specimens with varying stress triaxiality. The tomography-measured Mg particle geometry, distribution and void behavior are used to identify the controlling ductile fracture mechanisms. These measurements become inputs for models predicting strain to failure.

description: In order to understand the interaction between the central black hole and the whole galaxy or their co-evolution history along with cosmic time, a complete census of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is crucial. However, AGNs are often missed in optical, UV and soft X-ray observations since they could be obscured by gas and dust. A mid-infrared (mid-IR) survey supported by multiwavelength data is one of the best ways to find obscured AGN activities because it suffers less from extinction. Previous large IR photometric surveys, e.g., $WISE$ and $Spitzer$, have gaps between the mid-IR filters. Therefore, star forming galaxy (SFG)-AGN diagnostics in the mid-IR were limited. The $AKARI$ satellite has a unique continuous 9-band filter coverage in the near to mid-IR wavelengths. In this work, we take advantage of the state-of-the-art spectral energy distribution (SED) modelling software, CIGALE, to find AGNs in mid-IR. We found 126 AGNs in the NEP-Wide field with this method. We also investigate the energy released from the AGN as a fraction of the total IR luminosity of a galaxy. We found that the AGN contribution is larger at higher redshifts for a given IR luminosity. With the upcoming deep IR surveys, e.g., $JWST$, we expect to find more AGNs with our method.

description: We present the properties of the central stars from a sample of 54 Planetary Nebulae (PNe) observed in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Hubble Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS). The Hubble Space Telescope's spatial resolution allows us to resolve the central star from its nebula (and line-of-sight stars) at the distance of the LMC, eliminating the dependency on photoionization modeling in the determination of the stellar flux. For the PNe in which the central star is detected we obtain the stellar luminosities by directly measuring the stellar fluxes through broad-band imaging and the stellar temperatures through Zanstra analysis. From the position of the central stars in the HR diagram with respect to theoretical evolutionary tracks, we are able to determine reliable core masses for 21 central stars. By including the central star masses determined in this paper to the 16 obtained previously using the same technique (Villaver et al. 2003), we have increased the sample of central star masses in the LMC to 37, for which we find a non-Gaussian mass distribution. The average central star mass for this sample is = 0.65\pm 0.07 Msun, slightly higher than the one reported in the literature for both white dwarfs and the central stars of PNe in the Galaxy. If significant, this higher average central star mass in the LMC can be understood in terms of a metallicity dependency on mass-loss rates during the Asymptotic Giant Branch, since the LMC has on average half the metallicity compared to the Galaxy. Finally, for the 37 objects analyzed in the LMC, we do not find any significant correlation between the mass of the central star and the morphology of the nebula.

In Defense of Slavery: An Exploration of Queen Anne's County Slave Owners 1820-1840

description: In August 1831, Nat Turner's rebellion shocked slaveowners in the South, but the reverberations of his massacre were also felt throughout the Chesapeake region. Maryland slaveowners reacted to the rebellion through legislative action that limited the freedoms of slaves and free blacks in the 1830s. However, restrictive legislation that would have completely revoked slaveowners' rights to manumit their slaves did not pass. This thesis examines records from Queen Anne's County in order to explain why slaveowners would support the existence of manumission throughout their state. In this thesis, slaveowners' relationships to and uses of manumission are made clear using personal collections, newspapers, and land records. This thesis examines documents in the Poplar Grove Collection at the Maryland State Archives, to suggest the value of community studies and analysis of documents from a specific place and time. This thesis reveals the economic and social control manumissions provided for Maryland slaveowners, which was exerted over slaves and free blacks, in the aftermath of one of the most remembered slave rebellions in American history. Finally, Queen Anne's County records create a more nuanced picture of how Maryland slaveowners thought of freedom and citizenship, particularly through their use of paternalistic and proslavery rhetoric.

A mechanism for parallel electric field generation in the MHD limit: possible implications for the coronal heating problem in the two stage mechanism

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We solve numerically ideal, 2.5D, MHD equations in Cartesian coordinates, with a plasma beta of 0.0001 starting from the equilibrium that mimics a footpoint of a large curvature radius solar coronal loop or a polar region plume. On top of such an equilibrium, a purely Alfvénic, linearly polarised, plane wave is launched. In the context of the coronal heating problem a new two stage mechanism of plasma heating is presented by putting emphasis, first, on the generation of parallel electric fields within an ideal MHD description directly, rather than focusing on the enhanced dissipation mechanisms of the Alfvén waves and, second, dissipation of these parallel electric fields via {\it kinetic} effects. It is shown that a single Alfvén wave harmonic with frequency $ν= 7$ Hz and longitudinal wavelength $λ_A = 0.63$ Mm, for a putative Alfvén speed of 4328 km s$^{-1}$, the generated parallel electric field could account for 10% of the necessary coronal heating requirement. We conjecture that wide spectrum (10$^{-4}-10^3$ Hz) Alfvén waves, based on the observationally constrained spectrum, could provide the necessary coronal heating requirement. The exact amount of energy that could be deposited by such waves through our mechanism of parallel electric field generation can only be calculated once a more complete parametric study is done. Thus, the "theoretical spectrum" of the energy stored in parallel electric fields versus frequency needs to be obtained.

Imaging the Dusty Substructures due to Terrestrial Planets in Planet-forming Disks with ALMA and the Next Generation Very Large Array

description: We present simulations of the capabilities of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and of a Next Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) to detect and resolve substructures due to terrestrial planets and Super-Earths in nearby planet-forming disks. We adopt the results of global 2-D hydrodynamical planet-disk simulations that account for the dynamics of gas and dust in a disk with an embedded planet. Our simulations follow the combined evolution of gas and dust for several thousand planetary orbits. We show that long integrations (several tens of hours) with the ngVLA can detect and spatially resolve dust structures due to low-mass rocky planets in the terrestrial planet formation regions of nearby disks (stellocentric radii $r = 1 - 3$ au), under the assumption that the disk viscosity in those regions is low ($α\le 10^{-5}$). ALMA is instead unable to resolve these structures in these disk regions. We also show that high-resolution ngVLA observations separated by several days to few weeks would allow to detect the proper motion of the azimuthally asymmetric structures expected in the disk regions of terrestrial planet formation.

Measuring Early Pre-symptomatic Changes in Locomotion of Rodent Models of Neurological and Neuromuscular Diseases

description: Neurological and neuromuscular diseases are usually difficult to diagnose at early stages. The aim of this Ph.D. dissertation is to detect neurological and neuromuscular diseases early by using a gait analysis system in laboratory rats. This includes diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, muscular injuries, and Parkinson's disease. Several preliminary experiments have been developed on rodents that have been used as animal models for human diseases. This work developed an effective noninvasive diagnostic methodology which can provide the probability that a rat is exposed to a disease that affects its locomotion. The gait analysis system measures ground reaction forces and associated time and frequency parameters when a rat walks on the sensor module. These measurements are used as input to a logistic regression model that assesses the probability that the animal model has a specific disease that affects its locomotion. All the models we have developed have achieved specificity and sensitivity values of at least 90%. This dissertation has the potential to have a significant impact on helping to diagnose diseases that affect locomotion early, which is currently very difficult to do effectively. This new methodology also has the potential to be instrumental in finding and validating new therapeutic procedures for the studied ailments.
Dynamic Depletion of Vortex Stretching and Non-Blowup of the 3-D Incompressible Euler Equations

description: We study the interplay between the local geometric properties and the non-blowup of the 3D incompressible Euler equations. We consider the interaction of two perturbed antiparallel vortex tubes using Kerr's initial condition \cite{Kerr93}[Phys. Fluids {\bf 5} (1993), 1725]. We use a pseudo-spectral method with resolution up to $1536\times 1024 \times 3072$ to resolve the nearly singular behavior of the Euler equations. Our numerical results demonstrate that the maximum vorticity does not grow faster than double exponential in time, up to $t=19$, beyond the singularity time $t=18.7$ predicted by Kerr's computations \cite{Kerr93,Kerr04}. The velocity, the enstrophy and enstrophy production rate remain bounded throughout the computations. As the flow evolves, the vortex tubes are flattened severely and turned into thin vortex sheets, which roll up subsequently. The vortex lines near the region of the maximum vorticity are relatively straight. This local geometric regularity of vortex lines seems to be responsible for the dynamic depletion of vortex stretching.
