description: Graphene is a realization of an esoteric class of materials -- electronic crystalline membranes. We study the interplay between the free electrons and the two-dimensional crystal, and find that it induces a substantial effect on the elastic structure of the membrane. For the hole-doped membrane, in particular, we predict a spontaneous buckling. In addition, attenuation of elastic waves is expected, due to the effect of corrugations on the bulk modulus. These discoveries have a considerable magnitude in graphene, affecting both its mesoscopic structure, and its electrical resistivity, which has an inherent asymmetry between hole- and electron-doped graphene.

description: Cellulase production studies were conducted with Talaromyces verruculosus IIPC 324 under solid state fermentation (SSF), and optimal parameters were conclusively selected via saccharification of acid-pretreated sugarcane bagasse. Various physicochemical parameters affecting cellulase production under SSF were optimized. Endoglucanase and cellobiase production responded differently under individual growth conditions. Maximum endoglucanase and cellobiase activity of ≥ 250 U/g and ≥ 45 U/g respectively was obtained when the strain was grown at 24°C for 4 days with an initial moisture content of 62.5% on wheat bran supplemented with 1.62% ammonium chloride. The enzyme cocktail obtained from these optimized growth conditions yielded 8.37 ± 0.75 g L−1 reducing sugar from acid-pretreated sugarcane bagasse after 72 h at 60°C and pH 4.0. With the addition of Avicel PH-101 at 5% concentration in wheat bran, the cellulase cocktail of Talaromyces verruculosus IIPC 324 released 9.17 ± 0.60 g L−1 and 7.82 ± 0.06 g L−1 of total reducing sugars and glucose respectively at 60°C (pH 4.0) after 72 h. The addition of glucose and other simple sugars did not repress the cellulase production under SSF conditions, making Talaromyces verruculosus IIPC 324 an attractive candidate for cellulase production and its application for biofuel production from lignocellulosic biomass.

description: In the present study, a genome shuffling approach was used for improvement of ethanol and acetic acid tolerance of C. ragsdalei (DSM 15248). Evaluation of metabolite production from selected shuffled strains was also conducted. Random mutagenesis was carried out using ethyl-methyl-sulfonate and UV followed by protoplast fusion. Promising fusants were selected based on enhanced ethanol and acetic acid tolerance and further evaluated for metabolite production through syngas fermentation. Strain F3-A obtained after the third round of shuffling showed ethanol production of 14.92 ± 0.75 g/L, while the parent strain showed ethanol production of 1.92 ± 0.52 g/L after seven days of syngas fermentation at 37 °C. Enhancement in 1-butanol production was also observed in shuffled strain F3-A. A seven-fold increase in ethanol concentration for shuffled strain F3-A was obtained. The study confirms the successful implementation of the genome shuffling technique for significant enhancement of metabolite production using syngas fermentation.
A new cosmic shear function: Optimised E-/B-mode decomposition on a finite interval
Creators: name: Fu, Liping

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The decomposition of the cosmic shear field into E- and B-mode is an important diagnostic in weak gravitational lensing. However, commonly used techniques to perform this separation suffer from mode-mixing on very small or very large scales. We introduce a new E-/B-mode decomposition of the cosmic shear two-point correlation on a finite interval. This new statistic is optimised for cosmological applications, by maximising the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) and a figure of merit (FoM) based on the Fisher matrix of the cosmological parameters Omega_m and sigma_8. We improve both S/N and FoM results substantially with respect to the recently introduced ring statistic, which also provides E-/B-mode separation on a finite angular range. The S/N (FoM) is larger by a factor of three (two) on angular scales between 1 and 220 arc minutes. In addition, it yields better results than for the aperture-mass dispersion ^2, with improvements of 20% (10%) for S/N (FoM). Our results depend on the survey parameters, most importantly on the covariance of the two-point shear correlation function. Although we assume parameters according to the CFHTLS-Wide survey, our method and optimisation scheme can be applied easily to any given survey settings and observing parameters. Arbitrary quantities, with respect to which the E-/B-mode filter is optimised, can be defined, therefore generalising the aim and context of the new shear statistic.

description: We provide a broad overview of the research on expectations and preferences for counseling and psychotherapy with Native Americans and identify a critical lack of research in this area. We conclude that increased research could improve the effectiveness of counseling and psychotherapy for Native peoples. For example, understanding and engaging patients’ expectations and preferences would likely lead to increased retention and satisfaction. Finally, we suggest that a Native American clinical practice network might be one way to generate clinical and research knowledge in the area of expectations and preferences for psychotherapy and counseling.

description: We study the transmission capacities of two coexisting wireless networks (a primary network vs. a secondary network) that operate in the same geographic region and share the same spectrum. We define transmission capacity as the product among the density of transmissions, the transmission rate, and the successful transmission probability (1 minus the outage probability). The primary (PR) network has a higher priority to access the spectrum without particular considerations for the secondary (SR) network, where the SR network limits its interference to the PR network by carefully controlling the density of its transmitters. Assuming that the nodes are distributed according to Poisson point processes and the two networks use different transmission ranges, we quantify the transmission capacities for both of these two networks and discuss their tradeoff based on asymptotic analyses. Our results show that if the PR network permits a small increase of its outage probability, the sum transmission capacity of the two networks (i.e., the overall spectrum efficiency per unit area) will be boosted significantly over that of a single network.

description: The Garvey-Kelson relations are used in an iterative process to predict nuclear masses in the neighborhood of nuclei with measured masses. Average errors in the predicted masses for the first three iteration shells are smaller than those obtained with the best nuclear mass models. Their quality is comparable with the Audi-Wapstra extrapolations, offering a simple and reproducible procedure for short range mass predictions. A systematic study of the way the error grows as a function of the iteration and the distance to the known masses region, shows that a correlation exists between the error and the residual neutron-proton interaction, produced mainly by the implicit assumption that $V_{np}$ varies smoothly along the nuclear landscape.

description: A shortage of manpower during World War II and in the immediate years following, the war forced the American farmer into an era of mechanized agriculture. His investment in machinery tripled. With this evolution in farming additional training became necessary for the successful operation, care, and maintenance of his machinery. The farmer became, through no choice of his own, a mechanic. Many times, the success or failure of his farming enterprises was a direct result or how well he operated his costly farm machinery.

description: For a closed topological manifold M with dim (M) >= 5 the topological structure set S(M) admits an abelian group structure which may be identified with the algebraic structure group of M as defined by Ranicki. If dim (M) = 2d-1, M is oriented and M is equipped with a map to the classifying space of a finite group G, then the reduced rho-invariant defines a function, \wrho : S(M) \to \QQ R_{hat G}^{(-1)^d}, to a certain sub-quotient of the complex representation ring of G. We show that the function \wrho is a homomorphism when 2d-1 >= 5. Along the way we give a detailed proof that a geometrically defined map due to Cappell and Weinberger realises the 8-fold Siebenmann periodicity map in topological surgery.

Simultaneous reaction and separation using a distillation column
Creators: name: Daniel, Patrick D.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A study has been made using computer simulation of a fractionating column with simultaneous distillation and chemical reaction occurring. The assumptions of 100% efficient trays and ideality of vapor-liquid equilibrium and thermal properties were made. Results show that the extent to which a reversible reaction can be driven, or an irreversible side reaction inhibited, is a strong function of the ease with which the reaction products may be removed using the separating capacity of the fractionating column. The quantity of liquid holdup per plate is also a factor of considerable importance in the performance of a fractionating column with chemical reaction, but its effect is not simple, interacting as it does with the reflux ratio. The effect of system pressure is complex. Increasing pressure raises temperatures, and therefore reaction rates but decreases separation factors. The influence of this with respect to the main reaction and any undesirable side reactions is so specific to the chemical reaction being studied that no overall generalization can usefully be made. Considering only the point of view of the amount of reaction achieved, a fractionating column can show considerable improvement over a continuous stirred tank reactor.

description: We address the issue of the effects of considering a network of contacts on the emergence of cooperation on social dilemmas under myopic best response dynamics. We begin by summarizing the main features observed under less intellectually demanding dynamics, pointing out their most relevant general characteristics. Subsequently we focus on the new framework of best response. By means of an extensive numerical simulation program we show that, contrary to the rest of dynamics considered so far, best response is largely unaffected by the underlying network, which implies that, in most cases, no promotion of cooperation is found with this dynamics. We do find, however, nontrivial results differing from the well-mixed population in the case of coordination games on lattices, which we explain in terms of the formation of spatial clusters and the conditions for their advancement, subsequently discussing their relevance to other networks.

description: Biodiesel production from non-edible oil feedstocks could partially alleviate the debate over the food vs. fuel crisis. In this work, seed oils of Sisymbrium irio L. and Sisymbrium sophia L. syn. Descurainia sophia L. Webb ex. Prantl were investigated as potential industrial non-edible biodiesel feedstock. The results revealed that the seeds had high oil contents, of 36.98% (S. irio) and 33.99% (S. sophia). The relatively high erucic acid content in the seed oils (i.e. 11.23 and 10.29%, respectively) showed that these oils could not be applied as edible oils. On the other hand, the low free fatty acid contents (0.44 and 0.34%) showed that seed oil of these species could be a suitable source for biodiesel production even in non-refined form. Linolenic acid was the dominant acid, making up 49.2 and 51.8% of the fatty acid profiles of S. irio and S. sophia, respectively. Such high linolenic acid content in both seed oils resulted in favorable physicochemical properties of the perspective biodiesels, i.e. higher degree of unsaturation, improved cold flow characteristics, and better viscosity. Overall, the seeds could serve as a non-controversial biodiesel feedstock, resulting in enhanced fuel properties while not posing any threats to food security.

description: A nonabelian finite flavor group $G \subset SO(3)$ can have double covering $G^{'} \subset SU(2)$ such that $G \not\subset G^{'}$. This situation is not contradictory, but quite natural, and we give explicit examples such as $G=D_n, G^{'}=Q_{2n}$ and $G=T, G^{'}=T^{'}$. This observation can be crucial in particle theory model building.

title: Comparative Study of the Composition and Quality of Bulk Tank Milk
Creators: name: Nilson, Kay M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1957

description: During the past decade, many changes have taken place in the dairy industry. At the present time, the industry is endeavoring to improve the quality and handling of milk. This is being accomplished by new equipment and improved methods.
In recent years the handling and transporting of milk by means of the ten gallon can is being replaced by the bulk tank system. With improved farm and truck tanks, milk can be cooled rapidly and stored at a lower temperature.
There are a few problems pertaining to quality, fat tests and wights in handling milk in bulk tanks. Among the problems we may list the following; maintenance and improvement in the quality with reference to bacterial content and flavor, accurate composite fat tests and economy of investment and operation.
The dairy industry along with other industries are striving to improve the equipment and methods of handling milk. With each improvement, there are many problems that must be overcome before the system can be considered successful.
The tank system calls for every other day pick-up. The milk is pumped from the farm tank into the tank truck before being transported to the dairy plant. With this new development came the problem of gathering the samples of milk for the fat test at the farm rather than at the factory. This study compares the daily fat test with the 15 day composite of farm tank milk.
If milk is cooled and allowed to stand for any period of time a cream layer will form on the top of the milk. To mix the milk thoroughly for the cooling and sampling, installation of a mechanical agitator was necessary.
The milk is held on the farm two days before delivery. This may cause a problem in increased bacterial counts.
With the use of the bulk tank trucks came the problem of proper cleaning and sanitizing. Only a small amount of research has been made on cleaning and sanitizing tanks.
Along with this problem came the one of undesirable flavors in milk. The question of the effect of increased holding and agitation on the development of undesirable flavors becomes important. Without proper control a large tank of milk could very easily be contaminated with the milk from one patron.
As these problems, among others, are successfully solved, the bulk tank system of handling milk will flourish throughout the dairy industry.
title: Forward steps and missteps: What we’ve learned through the process of conducting CBPR research in rural Alaska.
Creators: name: Lewis, Jordan P
name: Boyd, Keri
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2020

description: Historically, research in Alaska has disregarded community input, creating mistrust among tribal communities toward researchers, and resulting in communities limiting their involvement in research projects. Over the past few years, tribal communities are becoming more involved in the research process; including developing their own tribal review boards and approval processes. This has resulted in the development of rigorous tribal approval processes that protect both the tribal communities and the researchers and can be time consuming. The communities are also taking a more active role in the research projects. This paper highlights some of the challenges we have faced while conducting community-based participatory research (CBPR) with tribal communities in Alaska and share lessons learned, including challenges with academic versus tribal community expectations, language translations and bilingual elders, and disagreement between researchers and communities. We conclude the paper with recommendations that can prepare other researchers interested in conducting research with Alaska Native communities or other tribal communities across the United States that will help establish rapport and strengthen the relationships between researchers and tribal communities.
Microwave drying of resin impregnated paper
Creators: name: Minami, Shusuke
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A pilot scale machine was designed and constructed to allow study of the continuous microwave drying at 2.45 GHz of paper impregnated with water or with phenol formaldehyde resin. This equipment could deliver microwave power at levels up 2.90 KW. Resin impregnated paper dried by microwaves showed better resin distribution, abrasion resistance, and internal bond strength when compared to similar papers dried in a hot air natural convection oven. No significant differences in tensile strength, stretch, Young's modulus, or bending strength were observed. A quantitative method for the determination of resin distribution was devised. Overall efficiencies for the microwave drying based on power input to the microwave power supply were of the order of 50 to 70%.

description: Many experiments have been conducted measuring the effects of nitrogen rates, moisture, or time of application but few combined all three in one experiment. The object of this investigation is to study the effects and interactions of nitrogen fertilizer, moisture, and time of application on silage corn, grain corn, and sweet com. The effects of these factors should be shown by changes in yield and quality of the crop.

description: The reversal of perpendicular magnetization (PM) by electric control is crucial for high-density integration of low-power magnetic random-access memory (MRAM). Although the spin-transfer torque (STT) and spin-orbit torque (SOT) technologies have been used to switch the magnetization of a free layer with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, the former has limited endurance because of the high current density directly through the junction, while the latter requires an external magnetic field or unconventional configuration to break the symmetry. Here we propose and realize the orbit-transfer torque (OTT), that is, exerting torque on the magnetization using the orbital magnetic moments, and thus demonstrate a new strategy for current-driven PM reversal without external magnetic field. The perpendicular polarization of orbital magnetic moments is generated by a direct current in a few-layer WTe2 due to the existence of nonzero Berry curvature dipole, and the polarization direction can be switched by changing the current polarity. Guided by this principle, we construct the WTe2/Fe3GeTe2 heterostructures, where the OTT driven field-free deterministic switching of PM is achieved.

description: This research investigates the conversion of Hydrilla verticillata into bio-oil and charcoal through a continuous pyrolysis process. The pyrolysis was carried out at a controlled temperature in the range of 300–700°C. The bio-oil and charcoal were analyzed using elemental analysis, chemical composition, and Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDS). At the highest temperature of 700°C the maximum product yield of bio-oil (41.25%) was found, while the maximum product yield of charcoal was 44.98% at 300°C. These results indicate the influence of temperature variation. The analysis of the Hydrilla verticillata mixture found a great portion of large molecules, including phenols (-OH), esters (-C=O), aldehydes (-CHO), and ketones (-C=O). The SEM analysis of the charcoal determined the enhancement of specific surface areas and microporosity, indicating an active diffusion rate, which may make the product suitable for fuel applications.

title: Breakfast Habits of Some Utah School Children
Creators: name: Stegelmeier, Marlene M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1957

description: During the last 10 years, much emphasis has been placed on the importance of breakfast for people of all ages. Nutritionists have pointed out that persons who eat a hearty breakfast show fewer signs of mid-morning fatigue, have or develop better work habits, and do not get as hungry as those who eat little or no breakfast.
Many people do not realize the importance of starting the day with a good breakfast. The 12 to 13 hour fast which the body undergoes from the evening meal until breakfast time requires the consumption of an adequate breakfast. Many poor breakfasts may be attributed to either failure to take the time to eat, or to not understanding the necessity of an adequate breakfast.
Nationwide surveys report that a large number of adolescents and adults fail to receive the recommended 1/4 to 1/3 of their caloric and nutrient needs at breakfast. A basic breakfast pattern has been developed to aid in planning an adequate breakfast that will supply 1/4 to 1/3 of the calories and other nutrients needed each day. It includes fruit, cereal and/or egg, milk, bread and butter, yet it allows for a wide variation in menus. it is economical and can be easy to prepare. A breakfast of these foods insures one of less morning fatigue and better feeling during the morning and all day long.
Studies show that breakfast is the most frequently missed meal. Many of the subjects who did not eat breakfast had a total day's intake that was classified as poor. Eating two meals a day failed to make up for the deficiency in nutrients. Breakfast consumption shows a direct relationship to the diet score, proof of the fact omitting breakfast is a poor start for the day.
At the ages when an individual needs a larger intake of calories and nutrients, many times there is an actual decrease in the intake of nutritions food. The adolescents are noted for this inverse relationship between their nutritive needs and their actual intake. Galloway and Wilcox (1954), in a Utah study of school children, found that the breakfast meal did not furnish the recommended 1/4 to 1/3 of the day's allowance of calories and many of the other nutrients. The noon and evening meals furnished a larger percentage of most nutrients to their diets.
The number of children in the study by Galloway, et al., (1954) was somewhat limited. To obtain a better picture of Utah school children's breakfast habits, 799 dietary records on file in the Foods and Nutrition Laboratory and 495 records collected this school year (1956-57) were evaluated.
The objective of the present study was to determine the adequacy of breakfasts of approximately 1,000 school children.

description: In this article, we show that if $Π: X\rightarrow Ω$ is an unbranched Riemann domain with $Ω$ Stein and $Π$ a locally 1-complete morphism, then $X$ is Stein. This gives in particular a positive answer to the local Steiness problem, namely if $X$ is a Stein space and, if $Ω$ is a locally Stein open set in $X$, then $Ω$ is Stein.

The Shape of the Polymerization Rate in the Prion Equation

description: We consider a polymerization (fragmentation) model with size-dependent parameters involved in prion proliferation. Using power laws for the different rates of this model, we recover the shape of the polymerization rate using experimental data. The technique used is inspired from an article of Zampieri et al. where the fragmentation dependency on prion strains is investigated. Our improvement is to use power laws for the rates whereas Zampieri et al. used a constant polymerization coefficient and linear fragmentation.

Anisotropic spatially heterogeneous dynamics on the $α$ and $β$ relaxation time scales studied via a four-point correlation function

description: We examine the anisotropy of a four-point correlation function $G_4(\vec{k},\vec{r};t)$ and it's associated structure factor $S_4(\vec{k},\vec{q};t)$ calculated using Brownian Dynamics computer simulations of a model glass forming system. These correlation functions measure the spatial correlations of the relaxation of different particles, and we examine the time and temperature dependence of the anisotropy. We find that the anisotropy is strongest at nearest neighbor distances at time scales corresponding to the peak of the non-Gaussian parameter $α_2(t) = 3 < δr^4(t) >/[ 5 < δr^2(t) >^2] - 1$, but is still pronounced around the $α$ relaxation time. We find that the structure factor $S_4(\vec{k},\vec{q};t)$ is anisotropic even for the smallest wave vector accessible in our simulation suggesting that our system (and other systems commonly used in computer simulations) may be too small to extract the $\vec{q} \to 0$ limit of the structure factor. We find that the determination of a dynamic correlation length from $S_4(\vec{k},\vec{q};t)$ is influenced by the anisotropy. We extract an effective anisotropic dynamic correlation length from the small $q$ behavior of $S_4(\vec{k},\vec{q};t)$.

description: The Serber force has relative orbital parity symmetry and requires vanishing NN interactions in partial waves with odd angular momentum. We illustrate how this property is well fulfilled for spin triplet states with odd angular momentum and violated for odd singlet states for realistic potentials but fails for chiral potentials. We analyze how Serber symmetry can be accommodated within a large Nc perspective when interpreted as a long distance symmetry. A prerequisite for this is the numerical similarity of the scalar and vector meson resonance masses. The conditions under which the resonance exchange potential can be approximated by a Yukawa form are also discussed. While these masses arise as poles on the Second Riemann in pi-pi scattering, we find that within the large Nc expansion the corresponding Yukawa masses correspond instead to a well defined large Nc approximation to the pole which cannot be distinguished from their location as Breit-Wigner resonances.

description: It is well known that, when normalized by n, the expected length of a longest common subsequence of d sequences of length n over an alphabet of size sigma converges to a constant gamma_{sigma,d}. We disprove a speculation by Steele regarding a possible relation between gamma_{2,d} and gamma_{2,2}. In order to do that we also obtain new lower bounds for gamma_{sigma,d}, when both sigma and d are small integers.

title: Morphological, Chemical, Histological, and Sensory Quality Changes in Gamma Irradiated Carrots and Potatoes
Creators: name: Madsen, Keith Andrew
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1958

description: Through the ages, people have been confronted with the problem of storing food after the harvest season for consumption during the winter months. Foods have been preserved by dehydration, canning, and refrigeration. However, people usually prefer fresh vegetables become unfit for human consumption as a result of sprouting and breakdown in storage.
Some chemicals have been used with various degrees of success in preventing sprouting of certain vegetables. The chemicals were applied as a pre-harvest foliar spray or directly on the tubers or on the roots.
In 1954, a law was passed by the United States Congress authorizing the release of small amounts of radioactive materials to study the peaceful uses of atomic energy. Since that time, many institutions have been awarded grants and contracts to work on various phases of food preservation by atomic energy. Through this program, the investigators at the Utah State University have been studying certain methods of extending the "shelf life" of fresh vegetables and fruits by gamma-rays.
The investigations presented in this thesis are of preliminary and general nature. They were mainly concerned with effects of the dose and the rate of gamma radiation on sprout inhibition, chemical, histological, and sensory quality changes in carrots and potatoes when stored at different temperatures. In addition, studies were conducted to combine the thermal and the radiation treatments with the assumption that the "threshold" radiation dose may be lowered. The application of the work presented herein constitutes a new approach to the problems of vegetable preservation. The success of this new field will depend upon improved methods and techniques in handling the material and the economics of the gamma-ray source.
