RECONTEXTUALIZING METATEXTUAL KNOWLEDGE AND TEXT STRUCTURE FEATURES IN SELF-REGULATED LEARNING AND ONLINE COMPREHENSION
Creators: name: Copeland, Dana Zanowski
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Despite advanced and evolving research on the complex strategic decision-making demanded of successful online 21st century learners, many individuals lack requisite knowledge and skills to enact effective strategies, to make inferences, or to engage in self-testing. Researchers across theories and disciplines (e.g., New Literacies, Educational Psychology, and Multiple Source Use) have captured the complex intersection of cognition, metacognition, and motivation associated with learning online. Notably, few researchers have integrated traditional literacy elements related to the structure and function of texts with research on online learning. In particular, there is a need to integrate self-regulated learning literature with research on metatextual knowledge and knowledge of text types and structural features, within online learning environments.      In this study, I applied think-aloud protocol data analysis to examine how metatextual knowledge and self-regulated learning processes related to online comprehension. Using 53 university participants, I explored the following: what kinds of metatextual knowledge were displayed during a complex online science task, the relationship between metatextual knowledge and learning gain, and how self-regulated learning processing varied across text types (e.g., argumentation, refutation). Results indicated the following: (a) learners enacted different processes related to structural and organizational functions of text (b) frequency of use of bold headings statistically significantly related to learning, and (c) a combination of metatextual variables, such as using headings to determine the expectation of the adequacy of content, and noticing lists, statistically significantly related to learning.  Further, participants statistically significantly differed in their frequency of self-regulated learning processes (e.g., planning, monitoring, and strategy use) across different text types. Findings from this study align with previous traditional literacy research showing the awareness of structural components of text types related to learners’ ability to organize information into main ideas that aid comprehension (Akhondi, Malayeri, & Samad, 2011; Dymock, 2000; Roehling, Hebert, Nelson, & Bohaty, 2017; Wijeckumar, Meyer & Rei, 2012), retention, and recall (Richgels, McGee, Lomax & Shield, 1987).  Results implicated potential avenues for more research, including continued exploration of self-regulated learning processes and strategies related to different text types and structural components of online learning. In addition, this study further illustrated the utility of think-aloud protocols as an approach to understanding self-regulated learning in context.

description: Using quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ calculations, we re-examined the electronic structure of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ and SrRuO$_3$. Our calculations show that the correlation effects beyond the conventional LDA (local density approximation) and GGA (generalized gradient approximation) are reasonably well captured by QS$GW$ self-energy without any {\it ad hoc} parameter or any ambiguity related to the double-counting and the downfolding issues. While the spectral weight transfer to the lower and upper Hubbard band is not observed, the noticeable bandwidth reduction and effective mass enhancement are obtained. Important features in the electronic structures that have been debated over the last decades such as the photoemission spectra at around $-3$ eV in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ and the half-metallicity for SrRuO$_3$ are discussed in the light of our QS$GW$ results and in comparison with the previous studies. The promising aspects of QS$GW$ are highlighted as the first-principles calculation method to describe the moderately correlated 4$d$ transition metal oxides along with its limitations.

description: We study stress time series caused by plastic avalanches in athermally sheared disordered materials. Using particle-based simulations and a mesoscopic elasto-plastic model, we analyze size and shear-rate dependence of the stress-drop durations and size distributions together with their average temporal shape. We find critical exponents different from mean-field predictions, and a clear asymmetry for individual avalanches. We probe scaling relations for the rate dependency of the dynamics and we report a crossover towards mean-field results for strong driving.

Rethinking the Achilles at Skyros Myth: Two Representations from Pompeii
Creators: name: Miller, Jackson Noah
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Previous scholarship on the Pompeiian representations of the Achilles at Skyros myth has largely focused on how these works of art communicate moralizing messages about traditional gender roles. I argue, however, that artists seem especially interested in exploring and representing Achilles and Deidamia’s love story. Through a close analysis of images and texts, I demonstrate how amatory themes were central to Roman versions of this myth in both literature and art. By focusing on the decorative ensembles from the House of the Dioscuri and the House of Apollo I highlight the importance of these images’ architectural contexts in framing the viewer’s interpretation of this myth—a myth that touched on themes of love and loss.

description: An approach to homogenization of high porosity metallic foams is explored. The emphasis is on the \Alporas{} foam and its representation by means of two-dimensional wire-frame models. The guaranteed upper and lower bounds on the effective properties are derived by the first-order homogenization with the uniform and minimal kinematic boundary conditions at heart. This is combined with the method of Wang tilings to generate sufficiently large material samples along with their finite element discretization. The obtained results are compared to experimental and numerical data available in literature and the suitability of the two-dimensional setting itself is discussed.

description: We present an improved numerical relativity (NR) calibration of the new effective-one-body (EOB) model for coalescing non precessing spinning black hole binaries recently introduced by Damour and Nagar [Physical Review D 90, 044018 (2014)]. We do so by comparing the EOB predictions to both the phasing and the energetics provided by two independent sets of NR data covering mass ratios $1\leq q \leq 9.989$ and dimensionless spin range $-0.95\leq χ\leq +0.994$. One set of data is a subset of the Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes (SXS) catalog of public waveforms; the other set consists of new simulations obtained with the Llama code plus Cauchy Characteristic Evolution. We present the first systematic computation of the gauge-invariant relation between the binding energy and the total angular momentum, $E_{b}(j)$, for a large sample of, spin-aligned, SXS and Llama data. The dynamics of the EOB model presented here involves only two free functional parameters, one ($a_6^c(ν)$) entering the non spinning sector, as a 5PN effective correction to the interaction potential, and one ($c_3(\tilde{a}_1,\tilde{a}_2,ν))$ in the spinning sector, as an effective next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order correction to the spin-orbit coupling. These parameters are determined (together with a third functional parameter $Δt_{\rm NQC}(χ)$ entering the waveform) by comparing the EOB phasing with the SXS phasing, the consistency of the energetics being checked afterwards. The quality of the analytical model for gravitational wave data analysis purposes is assessed by computing the EOB/NR faithfulness. Over the NR data sample and when varying the total mass between 20 and 200~$M_\odot$ the EOB/NR unfaithfulness (integrated over the NR frequency range) is found to vary between $99.493\%$ and $99.984\%$ with a median value of $99.944\%$.

description: Effects of interchain couplings and anisotropy on a Haldane chain have been investigated by single crystal inelastic neutron scattering and density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the model compound SrNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$. Significant effects on low energy excitation spectra are found where the Haldane gap ($Δ_0 \approx 0.41J$; where $J$ is the intrachain exchange interaction) is replaced by three energy minima at different antiferromagnetic zone centers due to the complex interchain couplings. Further, the triplet states are split into two branches by single-ion anisotropy. Quantitative information on the intrachain and interchain interactions as well as on the single-ion anisotropy are obtained from the analyses of the neutron scattering spectra by the random phase approximation (RPA) method. The presence of multiple competing interchain interactions is found from the analysis of the experimental spectra and is also confirmed by the DFT calculations. The interchain interactions are two orders of magnitude weaker than the nearest-neighbour intrachain interaction $J$ = 8.7~meV. The DFT calculations reveal that the dominant intrachain nearest-neighbor interaction occurs via nontrivial extended superexchange pathways Ni--O--V--O--Ni involving the empty $d$ orbital of V ions. The present single crystal study also allows us to correctly position SrNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$ in the theoretical $D$-$J_{\perp}$ phase diagram [T. Sakai and M. Takahashi, Phys. Rev. B 42, 4537 (1990)] showing where it lies within the spin-liquid phase.

description: Although liquid water has been studied for many decades by (X-ray and neutron) diffraction measurements, new experimental results keep appearing, virtually every year. The reason for this is that neither X-ray, nor neutron diffraction data are trivial to correct and interpret for this essential substance. Since X-rays are somewhat insensitive to hydrogen, neutron diffraction with (most frequently, H/D) isotopic substitution is vital for investigating the most important feature in water: hydrogen bonding. Here, the two very recent sets of neutron diffraction data are considered, both exploiting the contrast between light and heavy hydrogen, $^1$H and $^2$H, in different ways. Reverse Monte Carlo structural modeling is applied for constructing large structural models that are as consistent as possible with all experimental information, both in real and reciprocal space. The method has also proven to be useful for revealing where possible small inconsistencies appear during primary data processing: for one neutron data set, it is the molecular geometry that may not be maintained within reasonable limits, whereas for the other set, it is one of the (composite) radial distribution functions that cannot be modeled at the same (high) level as the other three functions. Nevertheless, details of the local structure around the hydrogen bonds appear very much the same for both data sets: the most probable hydrogen bond angle is straight, and the nearest oxygen neighbours of a central oxygen atom occupy approximately tetrahedral positions.

The depth and excellent image quality of the RCS2 enable us to detect the cluster-mass cross-correlation up to z~0.7. To obtain cluster masses, concentrations and halo biases, we fit a cluster halo model simultaneously to the lensing signal and to the projected density profile of red-sequence cluster members, as the latter provides tight constraints on the cluster miscentring distribution. We parametrise the mass-richness relation as M_200 = A x (N_200/20)^alpha, and find A = (15.0 +- 0.8) x 10^13 h_70^-1 M_sun and alpha = 0.73 +- 0.07 at low redshift (0.2

description: A possible mechanism for the formation of a 90° misfit dislocation at the Ge/Si(001) interface through homogeneous nucleation is identified from atomic scale calculations where a minimum energy path connecting the coherent epitaxial state and a final state with a 90° misfit dislocation is found using the nudged elastic band method. The initial path is generated using a repulsive bias activation procedure in a model system including 75000 atoms. The energy along the path exhibits two maxima in the energy. The first maximum occurs as a 60° dislocation nucleates. The intermediate minimum corresponds to an extended 60° dislocation. The subsequent energy maximum occurs as a second 60° dislocation nucleates in a complementary, mirror glide plane, simultaneously starting from the surface and from the first 60° dislocation. The activation energy of the nucleation of the second dislocation is 30% lower than that of the first one showing that the formation of the second 60° dislocation is aided by the presence of the first one. The simulations represent a step towards unraveling the formation mechanism of 90° dislocations, an important issue in the design of growth procedures for strain released Ge overlayers on Si(100) surfaces, and more generally illustrate an approach that can be used to gain insight into the mechanism of complex nucleation paths of extended defects in solids.

FUSIONETICS MOVEMENT EFFICIENCY TEST AS A TOOL FOR LOWER EXTREMITY INJURY PREDICTION IN DIVISION I COLLEGIATE ATHLETES
Creators: name: Quirk-Royal, Zoe
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Movement quality screenings are used by sports medicine professionals who work with competitive sports. They can help give insight into an athlete’s biomechanics. Existing tests lack the ability to predict injuries. PURPOSE: To determine the predictive value of the Fusionetics test at identifying those at risk of a lower extremity musculoskeletal injury. METHODS: Using data collected from division 1 field sport athletes, multivariable binomial risk regression models were used to model injury risk within the season, estimate risk ratios, and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS: The analysis determined that every 5-point increase in the Fusionetics ME score there was an associated risk ratio of 0.9276 (p=0.5611). The second model treated the Fusionetics ME score as a categorical variable. The risk ratios were moderate vs poor RR=0.9114 (p=0.7489), good vs poor RR=0.7273 (p=0.3017), good vs moderate RR=0.789 (p=0.1061).

description: Gottesman, Kitaev and Preskill have formulated a way of encoding a qubit into an oscillator such that the qubit is protected against small shifts (translations) in phase space. The idea underlying this encoding is that error processes of low rate can be expanded into small shift errors. The qubit space is defined as an eigenspace of two mutually commuting displacement operators $S_p$ and $S_q$ which act as large shifts/translations in phase space. We propose and analyze the approximate creation of these qubit states by coupling the oscillator to a sequence of ancilla qubits. This preparation of the states uses the idea of phase estimation where the phase of the displacement operator, say $S_p$, is approximately determined. We consider several possible forms of phase estimation. We analyze the performance of repeated and adapative phase estimation as the simplest and experimentally most viable schemes given a realistic upper-limit on the number of photons in the oscillator. We propose a detailed physical implementation of this protocol using the dispersive coupling between a transmon ancilla qubit and a cavity mode in circuit-QED. We provide an estimate that in a current experimental set-up one can prepare a good code state from a squeezed vacuum state using $8$ rounds of adapative phase estimation, lasting in total about $4 μ$ sec., with $94\%$ (heralded) chance of success.

description: As electric vehicle (EV) numbers rise, concerns about the capacity of current charging and power grid infrastructure grow, necessitating the development of smart charging solutions. While many smart charging simulators have been developed in recent years, only a few support the development of Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms in the form of a Gym environment, and those that do usually lack depth in modeling Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) scenarios. To address the aforementioned issues, this paper introduces the EV2Gym, a realistic simulator platform for the development and assessment of small and large-scale smart charging algorithms within a standardized platform. The proposed simulator is populated with comprehensive EV, charging station, power transformer, and EV behavior models validated using real data. EV2Gym has a highly customizable interface empowering users to choose from pre-designed case studies or craft their own customized scenarios to suit their specific requirements. Moreover, it incorporates a diverse array of RL, mathematical programming, and heuristic algorithms to speed up the development and benchmarking of new solutions. By offering a unified and standardized platform, EV2Gym aims to provide researchers and practitioners with a robust environment for advancing and assessing smart charging algorithms.

Noise-Induced Transitions in Optomechanical Synchronization

description: We study how quantum and thermal noise affects synchronization of two optomechanical limit-cycle oscillators. Classically, in the absence of noise, optomechanical systems tend to synchronize either in-phase or anti-phase. Taking into account the fundamental quantum noise, we find a regime where fluctuations drive transitions between these classical synchronization states. We investigate how this "mixed" synchronization regime emerges from the noiseless system by studying the classical-to-quantum crossover and we show how the time scales of the transitions vary with the effective noise strength. In addition, we compare the effects of thermal noise to the effects of quantum noise.

description: We study effects of fluctuations on the mesoscopic length-scale on systems with mesoscopic inhomogeneities. Equations for the correlation function and for the average volume fraction are derived in the self-consistent Gaussian approximation. The equations are further simplified by postulating the expression for the structure factor consistent with scattering experiments for self-assembling systems. Predictions of the approximate theory are verified by a comparison with the exact results obtained earlier for the one-dimensional lattice model with first-neighbour attraction and third-neighbour repulsion. We find qualitative agreement for the correlation function, the equation of state and the dependence of the chemical potential $μ$ on the volume fraction $ζ$. Our results confirm also that strong inhomogeneities in the disordered phase are found only in the case of strong repulsion. The inhomogeneities are reflected in an oscillatory decay of the correlation function with a very large correlation length, three inflection points in the $μ(ζ)$ curve and a compressibility that for increasing $ζ$ takes very large, very small and again very large values.

description: The LHCb collaboration has recently performed a first measurement of the angular production asymmetry in the distribution of beauty quarks and anti-quarks at a hadron collider. We calculate the corresponding standard model prediction for this asymmetry at fixed-order in perturbation theory. Our results show good agreement with the data, which is provided differentially for three bins in the invariant mass of the $b \bar b$ system. We also present similar predictions for both beauty-quark and charm-quark final states within the LHCb acceptance for a collision energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13 \, {\rm TeV}$. We finally point out that a measurement of the ratio of the $b \bar b$ and $c \bar c$ cross sections may be useful for experimentally validating charm-tagging efficiencies.

description: Service-oriented computing has created new requirements for information systems development processes and methods. The adoption of service-oriented development requires service identification methods matching the challenge in enterprises. A wide variety of service identification methods (SIM) have been proposed, but less attention has been paid to the actual requirements of the methods. This paper provides an ethnographical look at challenges in service identification based on data from 14 service identification sessions, providing insight into the practice of service identification. The findings identified two types of service identification sessions and the results can be used for selecting the appropriate SIM based on the type of the session.

Does It Matter If I Make A Difference?

description: I address the collective action problem of animal consumption: It is all of our individual      acts of animal product consumption which drive the continued existence of factory farms, yet it      is also true that no single person’s actions make any perceptible difference to how many animals      are exploited. So what are we to say of each individual’s actions?      The question has traditionally been approached by examining what difference our actions      of consumption make to the harms imposed on animals, but because it is so difficult to      satisfactorily analyze the role our individual actions play in contributing to factory farming,      many people believe we do not have good enough reason to change our consumption habits.      I argue that those who believe animal cruelty is wrong have good reason to refrain from      consuming animal products regardless of how we want to analyze the external effects of      individual actions. These reasons instead have to do with integrity and our responsibility to act in      ways which portray a genuineness in our moral judgments. My goal is to sidestep the issues the      collective action problem poses for pro-vegan ideology and give non-consequentialist-based      reasons to refrain from consuming factory farmed animal products.

description: El confinamiento de la población en España durante el año 2020, debido a la pandemia de la COVID-19, obligó a las universidades a migrar su docencia a modalidad on-line o a distancia. En las universidades de educación a distancia esto no supuso un cambio radical, que sí hubo que llevar a cabo en las universidades presenciales. En este trabajo, queremos presentar una visión general de cómo afectó dicha circunstancia a la docencia universitaria, en general, y al caso de la astronomía y astrofísica en particular.
