Microstructure Evolution and Mechanical Behaviors of Triphase Immiscible Nanocomposites Under Extreme Environments
Creators: name: Niu, Tongjun
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Metals and alloy materials

description: Materials performance under extreme conditions is pivotal to the design of advanced nuclear reactor materials. Nanocrystalline metals possess improved radiation resistance and superior mechanical properties. However, it remains a major challenge to stabilize the fine grains in nanocrystalline materials at elevated temperatures. The response of abundant interfaces and triple junctions to thermal annealing, plastic straining and radiation damage profoundly influence the overall performance of nanocrystalline metals. The objective of this thesis is to illustrate a new alloy design strategy via engineering the interfaces and triple junctions of triphase nanocomposites to enhance the thermal stability, mechanical strength and radiation tolerance of nanocrystalline metallic materials simultaneously. In triphase nanocomposites where each phase is nearly immiscible to the others, the triple junctions and phase boundaries form a 3D interlocking network that could significantly increase the thermal and radiation stability. In this thesis, two distinct triphase architectures were explored: nanolaminate and nanocrystalline Cu-Ag-Fe composites fabricated by magnetron sputtering. The effectiveness of Cu-Ag-Fe triphase triple junctions in mitigating thermal grooving was evaluated by considering grooving kinetics. Additionally, micropillar compression tests on Cu-Ag-Fe nanolaminate composites demonstrated substantial enhancement of strength and strain hardening capability comparing to Cu/Fe multilayers. The nanocrystalline Cu-Ag-Fe composites exhibited a distinct texture evolution and greatly enhanced resistance to grain coarsening. In situ sequential dual beam (He + Kr) irradiation studies show nanocrystalline Cu-Ag-Fe composites have a remarkable bubble swelling resistance, suggesting the strong He storage and defect annihilation capability of the triphase nanocomposites. The results obtained from this thesis provide innovative perspectives on the design of high strength nanostructured metals with enhanced thermal stability and radiation tolerance.

description: The object of this work is to develop a novel approach to fabricate model membranes of well-defined and well aligned nanostructured materials in a robust environment. The main focus is on electrochemical synthesis, involving anodic oxidation of high purity aluminum sheets to form porous oxide films. Alumina films were prepared by anodizing highly pure aluminum (99.999%) in acidic electrolytes. Anodization parameters (current density, temperature, applied voltage, anodization time and electrolyte concentration) were selected with respect to the electrolyte used.

The primary challenge in nanotechnology is the creation of nanometer-scaled objects with as narrow a size distribution as possible for a desired size and shape and with as perfect a crystalline structure as possible. In particular, the creation of a nanostructure with a fine pattern and nanorods with a high degree of alignment and aspect ratio has become a promising approach in the development of nanotechnology applications. In this research we implemented an Anodic Aluminum oxide nanotemplate based structure to achieve this goal. An AAO template has a fine hexagonal structure, and its aspect ratio is readily controllable by controlling the anodization parameters, In this report, controllable diameter fabrication of AAO templates at room temperature was studied, and its applications in synthesizing nanorods were explored.

Occupational Injuries and Illnesses In Indigenous Populations
Creators: name: Shannon, Brett
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: The research conducted for this dissertation aims to expand evidence of the deep inequities in Indigenous occupational health evidence and provide recommendations for targeted future research that will appropriately inform policy, practice, and community level outcomes that might reduce the gap in life expectancy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.
This was done through a series of three analyses that used existing data sets to assess their utility for elucidating unique experiences of Indigenous peoples’ occupational health in the United States (U.S.). Our first project examined the utility of incorporating outpatient and emergency department hospital data into current occupational health surveillance systems and specifically assessed how ED and outpatient data improves our understanding of Indigenous occupational health issues. The second and third study of this dissertation used a national cross-sectional survey, the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), to gain a better understanding of the role of structural and intermediary determinants on occupational and mental health outcomes for Indigenous people. Outcomes examined in the second study included labor force participation (based on employment status in past week), employment status, paid sick leave benefits at job last week, health insurance offered at workplace for those who reported working last week and income below 200% federal poverty level (FPL) during past year. Our third aim, using the NHIS, provided a detailed description of the characteristics of AIAN adults with depressed symptoms and examined their sociodemographic, health, functional and disability characteristics by working status.
Despite focusing on occupational health and wellbeing this research has several key findings that are relevant across other areas of AIAN research. Specifically, (1) there is lack of consistency and rigor in reporting of race/ethnicity for Indigenous Americans in health data and national/regional surveys which impedes workforce development and planning and targeted occupational health and safety research, (2) occupational health indicators from national surveys reflect western concepts and development of Indigenous-centered indicators of occupational health and wellbeing is required, (3) ED data usage can be used to contribute to the understanding of patterns of work-related injuries and illnesses presenting to hospital.

(Fig. 1D)
Material examined. Off Kwannon, Koror I., Palau Is., dredged; 1 ♂ (cb 17.0 mm excluding branchial spines×pcl 25.2 mm including posterior tubercle; rl 10.5 mm), NSMT-Cr 30958; June 17, 1980; K. Baba leg.
Remarks. The records of this species are not so many, but there is no doubt for its identification as Naxioides hirta due to the good representations by the original author (A. Milne-Edwards, 1865) and some later authors such as Hilgendorf (1879, as Podopisa petersii), Sakai (1938), and Takeda et al. (2019). The pear-shaped carapace (Fig. 1D) with many granules of various sizes and a sharp epibranchial spine at each side suggests some Hyastenus species, but the anterior part of the carapace is fairly strongly deflexed and each rostral spine is armed with a subsidiary spine at its dorsal median surface, which is not a character diagnostic to Hyastenus. The inwardly curved tip of the rostral spine also characterizes this species.
Distribution. Indo-West Pacific from Japan to the western Indian Ocean through Asian waters, with 15–35 m in depth. New to the Palau Islands.

Portable Electrochemical Systems for Heavy Metal Detection in Blood and Water
Creators: name: Boselli, Elena
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: Considerable evidence exists on the health risks associated with elevated levels of heavy metals. While some heavy metals serve as micronutrients essential for various biological and physiological functions, their toxicity becomes evident when concentrations surpass normal trace levels in the human body. Acute and chronic exposure to elevated levels of heavy metals leads to adverse health effects, including neurological, cardiovascular, and renal diseases, as well as various forms of cancer. Thus, rapid, frequent, and widespread assessment of heavy metal levels in both environmental (e.g., water) and biological (e.g., blood) matrices is crucial for public health. Conventional spectrometry and spectroscopy based analytical techniques are effective in metal quantification but are confined to centralized laboratories due to cost and size of instrumentation, intricate sample preparation requirements, and need for highly trained personnel. The time needed to obtain results using these methods can extend to several months. In contrast, electrochemical techniques have emerged as promising alternatives for sensitive, decentralized monitoring of heavy metals. These techniques offer the advantages of a compact format suitable for point-of-use (POU) applications, relatively low costs, and simplicity of operation. This dissertation describes the development of portable systems for the electrochemical detection of heavy metals in water and blood, potentially deployable for POU applications. Miniature electrochemical sensors were demonstrated for the accurate detection of manganese (Mn) and arsenic (As) in water, and lead (Pb) in blood. The proposed electrochemical systems achieved calculated limits of detection (LOD) of 0.6ppb Mn, 0.6ppb As in water, and 3.9ppb Pb in blood. Validation with ‘real-world’ water and blood samples is presented and benchmarked against spectrometric technique. A human-centered workflow was used to guide the development of a system interface that facilitates the use of the engineered systems by non-expert users.

description: Report Introduction: Early in 1962, a study was made of the 1961 Emergency Feed Grain Program to determine factors that affected farmers' decisions regarding participation in the program and to provide information that would be useful in developing and operating future programs. The study, which covered eight areas, provided insight into the operation of the program in selected situations but did not make it possible to measure the effects of tenure or type of farm on participation, or the proportion of the farmers for whom participation was profitable. This study of the 1962 Feed Grain Program in the Corn Belt was initiated to reflect program operations in a much larger region, for which data could be aggregated to represent a larger proportion of the production. The objectives of the study were to obtain more information on the characteristics of farms and farmers in and out of the program, the effect of participation on returns of individual farms, the proportion of farms for which participation would be profitable, changes in farm organization and practices associated with participation, the relation of farms and farmers' characteristics to participation, and farmers' reactions to program modification.

title: Socio-ecological Impacts and Adaptations Arising from Chinese-led Infrastructure Developments in Africa: A Case Study of the Bui Hydropower Dam in Ghana
Creators: name: Amankona, Daniel
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: China has become the most important global funder of large hydropower dams over the last two decades, offering development opportunities for Global South countries. However, hydropower dams can negatively affect surrounding communities and ecosystems. There are widespread allegations that China’s poor record on social and environmental standards stems from their chosen financing models and construction practices. Drawing on social-ecological systems (SES) thinking and critical political ecology, this study investigates these issues through a qualitative study of Ghana’s Bui Dam. It uses a rapid ethnographic methodology and data from secondary sources, in-depth interviews, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and transect walks. The study found that the dam has significantly changed river flow, soil characteristics, and the local ecosystem. This has affected how local communities organise their lifestyles and relationships to their local resource base, with serious implications for their welfare. Negative social impacts include water-borne diseases, displacement, and livelihood disruption. Livelihood diversification has become an important adaptation option. The dam has also wrought positive changes including the provision of modern houses, improved roads, potable water, expanded markets, growth in the tourism and hospitality sectors, upgraded healthcare, and increased access to electricity for resettled communities and Bui Dam staff. The dam’s impacts vary across spatial scales. Livelihood disruption is more severe for communities downstream and in the floodplains. Upstream communities have experienced phenomenal growth in the fisheries and trading sectors while farming remains profitable. In sum, the dam has brought new livelihood opportunities, eroded others, and brought some into conflict. Overall, the ‘China factor’ does not render the Bui dam unique among African dam projects. However, Chinese actors were only able to meet their geopolitical and geoeconomic interests in constructing the dam by working through the agency of the Ghanaian state. The Chinese government facilitated access for Sinohydro via Chinese state capital while Ghana’s political elites negotiated the investment deal and engineering contract. As such, Ghanaian state institutions made key decisions that shaped the dam’s socio-ecological impacts.

Material examined. Inside of Gesodokkuru Reef, off Arumonogui, Babelthuap I., Palau Is., dredged, ca. 20 m in depth; 1♂ (cb 11.4×cl 11.3 mm including front and excluding posterior tubercles), NSMT-Cr 30964; July 13, 1980; K. Baba leg. ─ Entrance of Toagel Mid in Arangel Channel, Babelthuap I., Palau Is., dredged, 40 m in depth, mud; 1 ♂ (11.7× 11. 8 mm), NSMT-Cr 30965; June 22, 1980; K. Baba leg.
Remarks. As seen in Fig. 3A–C, the chelipeds are remarkably long and slender, and there are two intestinal spines differing from only one spine in most of the congeners. These two characters are finely figured by Adams and White (1848: pl. 5 fig. 2), and shared only with Rhinolambrus sisimanensis which was originally described by Sèrene and Umali (1972) and later recorded by Davie and Turner (1994) as Parthenope (Rhinolambrus). These two species are generally close to each other, but readily distinguished by having one spine each at the gastric and branchial regions in R. turriger instead of two spines in R. sisimanensis.
Borradaile (1903b) made a simple but fine drawing to show adequately the specific characters. Flipse (1930) examined several specimens from Indonesian waters and deeply noted on the armatures of the carapace and chelipeds. In the paper dealing with Lambrachaeus ramifer Alcock, 1905, Ng and McLay (2003) showed the basic similarity between R. turriger and L. ramifer as the parthenopid crabs in having the long chelipeds and slender ambulatory legs of the parthenopid type, and decidedly transferred L. ramifer to the family Parthenopidae from the family Majidae s.l.
Distribution. West Pacific from the Philippines to the Sunda Strait in the Java Sea, Darnley Island in the Torres Strait, and the Andaman Islands and Seychelles in the Indian Ocean (Miers, 1884; Flipse, 1930). The recorded bathymetric range is from 25 to 90 m. New to the Palau Islands.

Utilizing Process Mining and Deep Learning to Detect IoT / IIoT Cyberattacks – A Hybrid Approach
Creators: name: Mokhtarian, Ilia
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: This dissertation explores a critical issue in computational cybersecurity methods, emphasizing the limitations of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models that rely heavily on extensive datasets of normal and synthesized attack data points. Given the scarcity of real attack data and the impracticality of using synthesized data for training in real-world applications, the research advocates for a shift towards realistic and sustainable anomaly detection and system defense strategies. Central to this study is the exploration of alternative methodologies that focus on understanding and learning from the system’s normal operational behavior, particularly in industrial and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) environments. The research introduces event-based analysis through process mining in Industrial Control Systems (ICSs), facilitating a deeper understanding of network communications and operational patterns. Additionally, the use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) is proposed to generate network logs that simulate potential future observations in IoT healthcare systems, enhancing anomaly detection capabilities. This dissertation suggests a new direction in cybersecurity for IoT and IIoT across various sectors, proposing a behavior-based anomaly detection framework that transcends traditional attack-centric models. By focusing on normal operations and utilizing advanced predictive techniques, this work aims to establish a more nuanced and proactive security approach, offering a significant advancement towards a more effective cybersecurity paradigm.
title: Proposing implementation strategies to enhance compassionate nursing care of complex patients: an exploratory sequential mixed methods research design
Creators: name: Younas, Ahtisham
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newwoundland
Year: 2022

description: Background: Complex patients have multiple, ongoing health conditions, often with limited resources, and are frequent recipients of health and social care services. Complex patients experience discrimination and are often shown a lack of compassion from nurses and other health professionals which negatively impact their care experiences and health outcomes. Missing in the practice literature are the strategies to guide much needed improvements in the compassionate nursing care of complex patients. Purpose: The purpose of this doctoral dissertation was to enhance understanding of the indicators of, and barriers to, compassionate nursing care delivery and to propose implementation strategies with potential to promote compassionate nursing care of complex patients. Methods: An exploratory sequential mixed methods design was conducted comprised of a qualitative phase, an instrument development phase, and a quantitative phase. The qualitative phase enabled identification of indicators and barriers based on interviews with 23 individuals with experiences as complex patients. Barriers were then mapped to implementation science frameworks in the instrument (i.e., a Q-sort survey) development phase to identify relevant domains and integration functions, and to choose implementation strategies for the survey concourse. The Q-sort survey was then electronically distributed during the quantitative phase to over 140 nursing, health, and compassion care experts, out of which 32 responded and ranked the strategies. Principal component analysis determined highest ranked strategies. A five-factor solution was generated using Varimax rotation. Merging technique confirmed the rankings before strategies were subsequently operationalized using an implementation science specification framework, followed by development of an implementation plan. Results: Participants identified six indicators of compassionate nursing care—nurses who are: sensitive, aware, positive, nonjudgmental, empathic, and altruistic. Barriers were categorized under knowledge, intentions, skills, social influences, behavioural regulation, reinforcement, emotion, and environmental context and resources. The final operationalized implementation strategies included: organize clinician implementation team meetings, involve patients and families, modelling, implementation facilitation, and ongoing consultation with stress experts. Conclusions: Implementation strategies made specific for practice contexts are urgently needed to effect change at provider, managerial and organizational levels to improve compassionate care experiences of complex patients. One promising approach are alliances between health professionals and patient and family groups to design, plan, and implement strategies to improve compassionate nursing care.

description: During the Thaw (ca. 1954–1956), Poland increasingly opened to the West in efforts to revitalize the communist system after the death of Stalin. This enabled the creation of new international networks between design practitioners as political elites allowed experts and art school students to travel. Joining western colleagues in developing industrial design, academically-trained designers in Poland seized the opportunity to participate in exchange across the Iron Curtain to develop the nascent field. By cooperating with their peers, designers at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków and Warsaw as well as the Institute of Industrial Design hoped to conceive objects for mass production and succeed in moving away from handicraft production, which dominated during the interwar period. Examining industrial design through international cooperation across the Iron Curtain reveals how Polish designers adapted to industrialization by adopting international aesthetics based on abstraction and then quickly reorienting them toward design methods and communications theory during the long sixties (ca. 1956-1976). Design methods de-centered aesthetics, transforming design into an applied science. By turning to this novel method, Polish designers hoped they could manage industrial processes and control the planned economy in order to raise the standard of living of their fellow citizens, in effect turning the state bureaucracy into what artist Krzysztof Wodiczko called “a human design project.” The human design project exemplifies the diverse efforts to adopt design methods to control industrialization and establish a modernity suitable for the socialist world. In our current moment of persistent globalization, exploring such practices serves to historicize processes and circumstances that are too easily assumed to be the exclusive products of a world after the dissolution of the Eastern Bloc.

Between Boundaries: Scripts of the Land

description: This paper examines the link between a person’s narrative and ethical principles, which we can derive from understanding how an individual perceives both their own self and the surrounding world. Myths are often considered to be part of a larger—communal— belief and value system rather than expressing individual phenomenologies. However, in this paper, narratives of personal tragedies from various contexts of natural and humanitarian disasters and crises will be explored for their meanings about a world-view that shifts, fragments, and, ultimately, when the wound balances with a healing. This has implications for our ethical lens, for example, on the normative judgments that settle on coping-methods that are differentiated as aside from dominant discourses on trauma. Narratives, then, lend themselves to forming self-identity and re-framing world-views and in this sense have an ethical value. Finally, the paper concludes with the suggestion for a greater personalisation of ethics in response to situating ethics within a narration discourse.

description: Asthma patients are under-represented among patients with COVID-19. Their behavior during lockdown and associated restrictions is unknown, as well as whether it was influenced by coexistent cardiovascular conditions. We conducted a cross-sectional survey in May 2020, in France, nested in ComPaRe, an e-cohort of adults with chronic diseases. A self-administered questionnaire was mailed to 10,859 people; 3701 fully completed questionnaires. The prevalence of self-reported asthma was 7%. Patients were classified in 4 categories: asthma with (n = 106) or without (n = 149) cardiovascular disease and other diseases with (n = 1186) or without (n = 2260) cardiovascular disease. Adherence to movement restrictions during the lockdown was very strong: 89% of participants reported a frequency of outings of “less than once per week” and “once or twice per week” for errands and no family-related outings during the lockdown. This proportion and frequency of outings were similar whatever the chronic disease (p = 0.122). Most patients (96%) reported a high feeling of security during the lockdown, but 95% felt anxious or depressed, with no difference by disease. As compared with patients with controlled asthma, those with uncontrolled asthma more frequently reported complaints related to deteriorated medical follow-up, waived care, anxiety or depression. Behaviors during the lockdown in France among the asthma population did not differ from patients with other chronic diseases in this cohort, which strengthens hypotheses for specific disease-related susceptibility to explain the low representation of asthmatics among COVID-19 cases. Special attention should be paid to the subgroup of patients with uncontrolled asthma during lockdowns.

description: In children with asthma exacerbations, we evaluated the relationship between Canadian Acute Respiratory Illness and Flu Scale (CARIFS) scores and (a) Asthma Diary Scale (ADS) scores for 14 days; (b) Pediatric Asthma Caregiver’s Quality of Life (QoL) Questionnaire (PACQLQ) scores on days 1, 7 and 14; (c) viral detection. We hypothesized that in children with acute asthma, CARIFS scores correlate with ADS and PACQLQ scores over time and that viruses have little impact on CARIFS scores. In children aged 2–16 years who presented with acute asthma to the Emergency Departments of 2 hospitals, we documented the clinical history, examination, asthma severity at baseline and on presentation. Eighteen respiratory pathogens were determined by PCR on nasopharyngeal aspirate (NPA) collected on recruitment. The parent(s) recorded their child’s daily CARIFS and ADS and weekly PACQLQ for 14 days. We used Spearman’s correlation to relate the scores of 108 children. CARIFS scores correlated well with ADS scores throughout 14 days (rs ranged 0.30–0.67). CARIFS and PACQLQ scores correlated −0.28, −0.14 and −0.44 on days 1, 7 and 14 respectively. There was no significant difference in CARIFS scores between children whose NPAs were PCR virus-positive or -negative over 14 days. CARIFS and ADS scores correlated well as a disease severity measure during the recovery period in children with acute asthma and this was not influenced by the virus state. The ADS may be used as an alternative in selected situations. The CARIFS reflects different aspects to acute asthma severity and QoL.

description: Abstract Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) is a systematic method of criticism about a building’s performance in use, including indoor environment quality (IEQ), energy performance, and occupants' satisfaction. Post Occupancy Evaluation can be defined as a method to measure the planned performance and the actual performance of the buildings. In this process, technical measurements can be made, and systematic surveys and interviews can be conducted with the users. In this way, the performance of the building is measured, and feedback can be provided to the facility manager and the entire technical team. By using this information in future projects, it is ensured that the errors are not repeated. This paper focuses on the analysis of a private female dormitory building in Ankara, with the functional and technical dimensions of user satisfaction which are obtained from literature. The dimensions are derived from the literature and adapted with some modifications with expert view. Within the study a user satisfaction evaluation study is handled to acquire the students’ responses regarding their satisfaction level according to (20) functional and (20) technical performance elements. The results of the post-occupancy evaluation of the dormitory are presented. Employed methodology can be upgraded for an advanced system to evaluate systemically the user satisfaction of dormitory users. Keywords: Student Housing, Dormitory, User Satisfaction Performance, Post-Occupancy Evaluation, Turkey.
