efficient energy building

description: One of the emerging milestones in building construction is the development of nearly zero energy buildings (NZEBs). This complex concept is defined as buildings that on a yearly average consume as much energy as they generate using renewable energy sources. Realization of NZEBs requires a wide range of technologies, systems, and solutions with varying degrees of complexity and sophistication, depending upon the location and surrounding environmental conditions. This paper will address the role of the above technologies and solutions and discusses the challenges being faced. The objective is to maximize energy efficiency, optimize occupant comfort, and reduce dependency on both the grid and the municipal potable water supply by implementing sustainable strategies in designing a research and sports facility. Creative solutions by the architectural and engineering team capitalize on the design of a unique glazing system; energy efficient technologies; water use reduction techniques; and a combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) microgrid (MG) with integrated control aspects and renewable energy sources

description: A dynamic self-organized morphology is the hallmark of network-shaped organisms like slime moulds and fungi. Organisms continuously re-organize their flexible, undifferentiated body plans to forage for food. Among these organisms the slime mould Physarum polycephalum has emerged as a model to investigate how organism can self-organize their extensive networks and act as a coordinated whole. Cytoplasmic fluid flows flowing through the tubular networks have been identified as key driver of morphological dynamics. Inquiring how fluid flows can shape living matter from small to large scales opens up many new avenues for research.

description: We present a simple model of quantum cosmology based on the group field theory (GFT) approach to quantum gravity. The model is formulated on a subspace of the GFT Fock space for the quanta of geometry, with a fixed volume per quantum. In this Hilbert space, cosmological expansion corresponds to the generation of new quanta. Our main insight is that the evolution of a flat FLRW universe with a massless scalar field can be described on this Hilbert space as squeezing, familiar from quantum optics. As in GFT cosmology, we find that the three-volume satisfies an effective Friedmann equation similar to the one of loop quantum cosmology, connecting the classical contracting and expanding solutions by a quantum bounce. The only free parameter in the model is identified with Newton's constant. We also comment on the possible topological interpretation of our squeezed states. This paper can serve as an introduction into the main ideas of GFT cosmology without requiring the full GFT formalism; our results can also motivate new developments in GFT and its cosmological application.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: B-site ordered thin films of double perovskite Sr$_2$CoIrO$_6$ were epitaxially grown by a metal-organic aerosol deposition technique on various substrates, actuating different strain states. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and polarized far-field Raman spectroscopy confirm the strained epitaxial growth on all used substrates. Polarization dependent Co $L_{2,3}$ X-ray absorption spectroscopy reveals a change of the magnetic easy axis of the antiferromagnetically ordered (high-spin) Co$^{3+}$ sublattice within the strain series. By reversing the applied strain direction from tensile to compressive, the easy axis changes abruptly from in-plane to out-of-plane orientation. The low-temperature magnetoresistance changes its sign respectively and is described by a combination of weak anti-localization and anisotropic magnetoresistance effects.

description: Chern-Simons theory on a U(1) bundle over a Riemann surface Σ_g of genus g is dimensionally reduced to BF theory with a mass term, which is equivalent to the two-dimensional Yang-Mills on Σ_g. We show that the former is inversely obtained from the latter by the extended matrix T-duality developed in hep-th/0703021. For the case of g=0 (i.e. S^2), the U(1) bundle represents the lens space S^3/Z_p. We find that in this case both the Chern-Simons theory and the BF theory with the mass term are realized in a matrix model. We also construct Wilson loops in the matrix model that correspond to those in the Chern-Simons theory on S^3.

description: Using exact diagonalization technique, we investigate the many-body localization phenomenon in the 1D Heisenberg chain comparing several disorder models. In particular we consider a family of discrete distributions of disorder strengths and compare the results with the standard uniform distribution. Both statistical properties of energy levels and the long time non-ergodic behavior are discussed. The results for different discrete distributions are essentially identical to those obtained for the continuous distribution, provided the disorder strength is rescaled by the standard deviation of the random distribution. Only for the binary distribution significant deviations are observed.

Tunable ferroelectricity and anisotropic electric transport in monolayer $β$-GeSe

description: Low-dimensional ferroelectricity has attracted tremendous attention due to its huge potential in device applications. Here, based on first-principles calculations, we predict the existence of spontaneous in-plane electrical polarization and ferroelectricity in monolayer $β$-GeSe, a polymorph of GeSe with a boat conformation newly synthesized in experiment. The magnitude of the polarization is about $0.16$ nC/m, which is comparable to that of monolayer SnTe studied in recent experiment, and the intrinsic Curie temperature is estimated to be above 200 K. Interestingly, owing to its puckered structure, the physical properties of $β$-GeSe can be easily controlled by strain. The Curie temperature can be raised above room temperature by applying a ($\sim 1\%$) tensile strain, and the magnitude of polarization can be largely increased by strains in either armchair or zigzag directions. Furthermore, we find that for the case with electron doping, applying strain can readily tune the anisotropic electric transport with the preferred conducting direction rotated by $90^\circ$, which is connected with a strain-induced Lifshitz transition. The ratio between the effective masses along the two in-plane directions can undergo a dramatic change of two orders of magnitude even by a 2% strain. Our result reveals monolayer $β$-GeSe as a promising platform for exploring ferroelectricity in two-dimensions and for nanoscale mechano-electronic device applications.

description: We present a method of short-distance analysis in quantum field theory that does not require choosing a renormalization prescription a priori. We set out from a local net of algebras with associated pointlike quantum fields. The net has a naturally defined scaling limit in the sense of Buchholz and Verch; we investigate the effect of this limit on the pointlike fields. Both for the fields and their operator product expansions, a well-defined limit procedure can be established. This can always be interpreted in the usual sense of multiplicative renormalization, where the renormalization factors are determined by our analysis. We also consider the limits of symmetry actions. In particular, for suitable limit states, the group of scaling transformations induces a dilation symmetry in the limit theory.

Subjects: subject: 80309 Software Engineering

description: This report formalizes a notion of witnesses as the basis of certifying the correctness of software. The first part of the report is concerned with witnesses for the satisfaction of linear temporal logic specifications by infinite state programs and shows how such witnesses may be constructed via predicate abstraction and validated by generating and proving verification conditions. In addition, the first part of this report proposes the use of theorem provers based on Boolean propositional satisfiability (SAT) and resolution proofs in validating these verification conditions. In addition to yielding extremely compact proofs, a SAT-based approach overcomes several limitations of conventional theorem provers when applied to the verification of programs written in real-life programming languages. The second part of this report formalizes a notion of witnesses of simulation conformance between infinite state programs and finite state machine specifications. The report also proves that computing a minimal simulation relation between two finite state machines is an NP-hard problem. Finally, the report presents algorithms to construct simulation witnesses of minimal size by solving pseudo-Boolean constraints. The author's experiments on several nontrivial benchmarks suggest that a SAT-based approach can yield extremely compact proofs.

description: Very Long Baseline Interferometry observations at 86 GHz reveal an almost hollow jet in M87 with a forked morphology. The detailed analysis presented here indicates that the spectral luminosity of the central spine of the jet in M87 is a few percent of that of the surrounding hollow jet $200 -400 μ\rm{as}$ from the central black hole. Furthermore, recent jet models in indicate that a hollow "tubular" jet can explain a wide range of plausible broadband spectra originating from jetted plasma located within $\sim 30μ\rm{as}$ of the central black hole, including the 230 GHz correlated flux detected by the Event Horizon Telescope. Most importantly, these hollow jets from the inner accretion flow have an intrinsic power capable of energizing the global jet out to kiloparsec scales. Thus motivated, this paper considers new models of the event horizon magnetosphere (EHM) in low luminosity accretion systems. Contrary to some models, the spine is not an invisible powerful jet. It is an intrinsically weak jet. In the new EHM solution, the accreted poloidal magnetic flux is weak and the background photon field is weak. It is shown how this accretion scenario naturally results in the dissipation of the accreted poloidal magnetic flux in the EHM not the accumulation of poloidal flux required for a powerful jet. The new solution indicates less large scale poloidal magnetic flux (and jet power) in the EHM than in the surrounding accretion flow and cannot support significant EHM driven jets.

description: We consider two families of extensions of the oscillator in a $d$-dimensional constant-curvature space and analyze them in a deformed supersymmetric framework, wherein the starting oscillator is known to exhibit a deformed shape invariance property. We show that the first two members of each extension family are also endowed with such a property provided some constraint conditions relating the potential parameters are satisfied, in other words they are conditionally deformed shape invariant. Since, in the second step of the construction of a partner potential hierarchy, the constraint conditions change, we impose compatibility conditions between the two sets to build potentials with known ground and first excited states. To extend such results to any members of the two families, we devise a general method wherein the first two superpotentials, the first two partner potentials, and the first two eigenstates of the starting potential are built from some generating function $W_+(r)$ (and its accompanying function $W_-(r)$).

description: Hyperelastic materials possess the appealing property that they may be employed as elastic wave manipulation devices and cloaks by imposing pre-deformation. They provide an alternative to microstructured metamaterials and can be used in a reconfigurable manner. Previous studies indicate that exact elastodynamic invariance to pre-deformation holds only for neo-Hookean solids in the antiplane wave scenario and the semi-linear material in the in-plane compressional/shear wave context. Furthermore, although ground cloaks have been considered in the acoustic context they have not yet been discussed for elastodynamics, either by employing microstructured cloaks or hyperelastic cloaks. This work therefore aims at exploring the possibility of employing a range of hyperelastic materials for use as antiplane ground cloaks (AGCs). The use of the popular incompressible Arruda-Boyce and Mooney-Rivlin nonlinear materials is explored. The scattering problem associated with the AGC is simulated via finite element analysis where the cloaked region is formed by an indentation of the surface. Results demonstrate that the neo-Hookean medium can be used to generate a perfect hyperelastic AGC as should be expected. Furthermore, although the AGC performance of the Mooney-Rivlin material is not particularly satisfactory, it is shown that the Arruda-Boyce medium is an excellent candidate material for this purpose.

description: We construct finitely generated groups with strong fixed point properties. Let $\mathcal{X}_{ac}$ be the class of Hausdorff spaces of finite covering dimension which are mod-$p$ acyclic for at least one prime $p$. We produce the first examples of infinite finitely generated groups $Q$ with the property that for any action of $Q$ on any $X\in \mathcal{X}_{ac}$, there is a global fixed point. Moreover, $Q$ may be chosen to be simple and to have Kazhdan's property (T). We construct a finitely presented infinite group $P$ that admits no non-trivial action by diffeomorphisms on any smooth manifold in $\mathcal{X}_{ac}$. In building $Q$, we exhibit new families of hyperbolic groups: for each $n\geq 1$ and each prime $p$, we construct a non-elementary hyperbolic group $G_{n,p}$ which has a generating set of size $n+2$, any proper subset of which generates a finite $p$-group.

description: This study aims to measure the performance of communal irrigation systems (CIS), using cropping intensity and farm yield as indicators. In particular, the study focused on the importance of collective action and how it affects the performance of CIS as a form of irrigation system in the Philippines. The unit of analysis used is the irrigators’ association (IA) that manages a CIS across the province of Bohol, Philippines. Analysis of variance was used to determine whether there are significant differences in the performance indicators among the three IA classifications. Likewise, Tobit analysis and ordinary least squares estimation method were used to determine the significant factors that influence cropping intensity and farm yield as performance indicators. The results showed that excellent-rated associations have significantly higher cropping intensity and farm yield than the satisfactory- and fair-rated associations. With respect to the determinants of the performance indicators, labor contribution as a proxy of collective action, has a positive and significant influence on the performance of the irrigation system. Likewise, farm size and farm location have significant and positive effects on cropping intensity and farm yield. However, firmed-up service area and age of the association is statistically significant in farm yield only. To improve the performance of CISs, the study recommends that both monetary and labor contributions must be promoted among farmer-members of each IA.

description: Quantum computing error rates are traditionally attributed to hardware imperfections and environmental interference such as cosmic radiation. This research explores a novel hypothesis: neutrinos and their oscillations may significantly contribute to quantum decoherence. By analyzing global anti-neutrino flux, quantum computing error data, and gravitational wave frequency spectra, we identify a previously unnoticed correlation between neutrino interactions and quantum system instability. Additionally, the stabilizing role of dark matter is considered through advanced quantum models, including Vesica Piscis-Enhanced Quantum Fourier Transform (VP-QFT) and Dark Matter Quantum Perimeter Function (DMQPF). We propose experimental verification methods, including controlled deployment of quantum systems in varying neutrino environments and further astrophysical cross-validation.

La construction identitaire des personnes issues de l’immigration de la seconde génération : Une exploration des enjeux identitaires des personnes appartenant à des communautés « noires »

description: Les personnes de deuxième génération issues de l’immigration au Canada sont exposées à plusieurs défis identitaires. Pour ces personnes appartenant à des communautés « noires », les défis semblent s’accroître en raison des expériences discriminatoires et d’exclusion qu’elles vivent régulièrement. Afin de mieux comprendre la perception de ces groupes de personnes sur leurs défis identitaires, nous avons recueilli des témoignages à travers huit sources de données provenant des médias sociaux à travers le Canada et en Europe. Les résultats nous permettent d’affirmer que les personnes « noires » de la deuxième génération descendante de migrants vivent un processus identitaire teinté par plusieurs dynamiques d’exclusion. Elles ressentent un sentiment de rejet à la fois par leur pays de naissance et par le pays d’origine de leurs parents. Leur attachement envers leur identité ethnique devient ainsi un facteur important dans la manière dont elles s’auto-identifient leur permettant de se différencier des autres groupes de personnes migrantes. L’incompréhension des valeurs culturelles du lieu de naissance, selon la perception de certaines de nos sources, peut entraver l’appropriation de ces valeurs et le sentiment d’appartenance au pays d’accueil de leurs parents. En ce qui a trait, plus spécifiquement, au processus identitaire des personnes « noires », des stratégies identitaires de « survie » semblent ressortir des données. Ces stratégies visent à surmonter les effets négatifs de l’identité qui leur a été assignée socialement. À la lumière de ces résultats, nous avons pu identifier quatre phases du processus identitaire des personnes « noires ». Ce processus découle du phénomène de racialisation qui contribue à leur identité sociale et à leur manière de se positionner socialement. Nos résultats nous ont permis de faire de recommandations pour promouvoir une approche plus inclusive de ces personnes dans la société canadienne. Nous avons voulu aussi contribuer par notre recherche à la déconstruction des idéologies dominantes qui ont un effet négatif sur l’identité sociale des personnes « noires » de deuxième génération.

description: Component Formal Reasoning Technology, ComFoRT, is a model-checking-based approach for analysis of component-based software designs. ComFoRT is designed to be used in a prediction-enabled component technology (PECT). A PECT provides a means to reliably predict the runtime qualities (e.g., performance and reliability) of assemblies of components from their certifiable properties (e.g., execution time and behavioral descriptions). ComFoRT uses an abstraction-based approach to cope with the complexity of analysis by reducing the size of the program models to be analyzed. This note presents technical details of a SAT-based predicate abstraction technique used in ComFoRT. The main advantage of the SAT-based method over conventional predicate abstraction techniques is that it does not require an exponential number of theorem prover calls for computing an abstract model. Additionally, the SAT-based approach computes a more precise and safe abstraction compared to existing predicate abstraction methods.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This report is another in a series of Software Engineering Institute (SEI) case studies of organizations that have adopted the software product line approach for developing systems. It details the story of Salion, Inc., an enterprise software company providing Revenue Acquisition Management solutions tailored to the unique needs of automotive suppliers. Salion's solutions enable suppliers to organize and manage their disparate customer-interfacing activities as one coordinated business process, resulting in higher revenues, profit margins, and customer satisfaction. This case study is unique in that Salion did not have substantial experience in its application area, although its key designers and strategists were knowledgeable about related domains. Salion pursued a reactive approach to its product line that let it respond flexibly to spontaneous business opportunities and that significantly lowered the cost of adopting the product line paradigm to its software system development. This case study describes relevant dimensions of Salion's context, how it approached several product line practice areas that were key to its strategy, the benefits gained through its product line, lessons learned, and the major thematic aspects of the Salion story.
