title: Effects of NGF on PC12 Neurite Growth
Creators: name: Alex, Albin
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: PC12
subject: Neurons

description: Pheochromocytoma cells, or PC12s, are a cell line used for neuroscience research. Even though these cells are derived from a rat adrenal medulla tumor, these cells mimic and behave similar to neurons. To further model these cells as neurons, PC12 are treated with nerve growth factor, or NGF. This process transforms the PC12s to differentiated PC12 which alters the cells morphologically to increase the number of neurite and length of neurites. Studies have use either 1% of 50 ng/mL or 100 ng/mL in the differentiation media, yet no study has tested varying densities. In this study, PC12 cells were cultured with varying concentration to determine what concentration led to the longest neurites.

title: Breaking Boundaries: Black Magazines Reconstructing Black Female Identity
Creators: name: DeLoach, Anita N.
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Stereotypes
subject: Sexual siren
subject: Mammy
subject: Matriarch
subject: Strong woman

description: The mainstream media has aided black women’s subordination by depicting black women in limited and negative positions. In previous studies, the Mammy, Matriarch, Welfare Queen, Strong Woman and Jezebel models have been identified as the most commonly used stereotypical images of black women. Magazines such as Ebony, Essence, and Black Enterprise have as one of their objectives the restoration of racial pride, providing opportunities for black women to define themselves, presenting unlimited job options and increasing unheralded expectations for black women. The purpose of this study is to determine if contemporary popular black magazines reinforce existing racial stereotypes or dispel them by presenting alternative images. The contents of Ebony, Essence and Black Enterprise, were examined from 2000 to 2008 to investigate the presence or absence of the Mammy, Matriarch, Welfare Queen, Strong Woman and Jezebel images. A major finding of the study was that articles in Essence dispelled approximately 29.5%, articles in Black Enterprise dispelled approximately 38.2% and articles in Ebony dispelled approximately 32.3% of the stereotypical images. Based on the total number of stereotypical images addressed in all of the magazines, the matriarch was dispelled at a higher percentage in both Ebony and Black Enterprise. In Essence, however, the strong woman stereotype was dispelled more than any of the other stereotypical images. Dispelling the stereotypes provides evidence that the magazines do in fact adhere to some of the basic principles of Black feminism which are voice, self-definition, and resisting oppression both in practices and in ideas that justify it.

description: Opportunistic reports were used to calculate rates of human-caused serious injury and mortality to baleen whale stocks along the Gulf of Mexico, United States east coast, and Atlantic Canadian Provinces for 2010 through 2014. All available information for reported whale injury and mortality events were evaluated by using criteria to assign injury severity and cause of injury or death for each event. The annual rate of human-caused serious injury and mortality rate during the period was 5.66 for North Atlantic right whales (Eubalaena glacialis), 8.65 for Gulf of Maine humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae), 3.8 for western North Atlantic fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus), 0.8 for Nova Scotian sei whales (B. borealis), 8.0 for Canadian East Coast minke whales (B. acutorostrata), and 0 for northern Gulf of Mexico Bryde’s whales (B. edeni) and western North Atlantic blue whales (B. musculus). The number of serious injuries and mortalities not reported is unknown, and actual levels may be much higher.

title: Hume’s Causal Epistemology: How Pre-Established Harmony, Custom and General Rules Confer Justification

Subjects: subject: Skepticism
subject: Reason
subject: Treatise on Human Nature
subject: Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding
subject: Owen
subject: Goldman

description: Hume has often been read as a sort of global skeptic. In this thesis, I argue that he should be understood instead as a causal epistemologist with the hope that this reading can provide new insights into Hume's project as well as shed light on some of the difficult questions of contemporary naturalistic epistemology. The common practice of approaching Hume's negative arguments in T 1.3.6 and T 1.4.1 in search of an account of the normativity of belief has led many to read him as a thoroughgoing skeptic, but coming to them with an understanding of the explanatory nature of Hume's project opens the possibility of reading these arguments as descriptive accounts of belief formation and reason and preserves possibilities for finding accounts of the warrant of reason and the justification of beliefs elsewhere in his works. Approaching these arguments in this light, I turn to an excerpt from Section V of the Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding that has received little attention in which Hume argues that the source of the truth of our beliefs is the "pre-established harmony between the course of nature [which is not directly known to us] and the succession of our ideas," which is actuated by custom or habit. This discussion of the harmony between causation in the objects and causation in human minds serves as Hume's account of warrant and marks him as a prototypical causal epistemologist of the likes of Alvin Goldman. When this account of warrant is paired with Hume's account of the rationality achieved by the application of general rules, he can be read as offering a full-fledged externalist causal epistemology with an internalist epistemic norms that guide rational belief formation. These two levels of normativity jointly confer justification on our correctly formed beliefs.

description: Aedes albopictus is considered one of the most invasive mosquito species in the world. It has proved capacity for local transmission of Chikungunya and Dengue within Europe. This research evaluated public costs related to the implementation of the plan for Ae. albopictus control and Chikungunya and Dengue prevention set up in Emilia-Romagna region (Northern Italy), where a Chikungunya epidemic outbreak occurred in 2007, with 217 confirmed cases. The management plan started in 2008 by involving more than 280 municipalities and 4.3 million inhabitants within the region, and its activities mainly target the ecological conditions for the multiplication of infestation hotspots in urban areas, to reduce the probability of rapid and uncontrolled disease spreading in case of outbreaks. The study accessed to data on the expenditures supported by all the public institutions involved in the implementation of the management plan.
During the 8 year’s life of the management plan, the public authorities of the region spent at least € 37.7 million for the Ae. albopictus control, although the yearly expenditure declined since the € 7.6 million of 2008 to the € 3.1 million of 2015. The assessment of this expenditure revealed a high level of variability of its costs in the various municipalities included in the plan, not easily explainable only by the territorial and environmental differences among the urban areas. The cost for the treatment of a single road drain varied in a range from ≈ € 0.04 to ≈ € 6.1 among the municipalities in the years of existence of the plan.
The research also attempted a first evaluation of the expenditures incurred by households to protect themselves from mosquito bites. During the pilot phase of a dedicated project, 57 interviews were realized to a random sample, and the mean expenditure € 18.25 per household.

Rational Design of Ion Separation Membranes

Subjects: subject: 90404 Membrane and Separation Technologies
subject: FOS: Chemical engineering

description: Synthetic membranes for desalination and ion separation processes are a prerequisite for the supply of safe and sufficient drinking water as well as smart process water tailored to its application. This requires versatile membrane fabrication methodology. Starting from an extensive set of new ion separation membranes synthesized with a layer-by-layer methodology, we demonstrate for the first time that an artificial neural network (ANN) can predict ion retention and water flux values based on membrane fabrication conditions. The predictive ANN is used in a local single-objective optimization approach to identify manufacturing conditions that improve permeability of existing membranes. A deterministic global multi-objective optimization is performed in order to identify the upper bound (Pareto front) of the delicate trade-off between ion retention characteristics and permeability. Ultimately, a coupling of the ANN into hybrid model enables physical insight into the influence of fabrication conditions on apparent membrane properties.
Laboratory bench tests with improved ability to predict grease lubrication performance in rolling bearings
Creators: name: McAllister, Rory
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2022

description: Frictional losses in rolling bearings produce an enormous quantity of wasted energy due to the abundance of bearings in the modern world. This loss can be reduced by improving the frictional performance of the lubricating greases that are the primary lubricant of bearings. A vital part of this improvement, and of developing new greases, is the test system used. It can provide deep insight into the observed phenomena, or potentially mislead, if the relevant lubrication mechanisms are not accurately emulated. Bearing tests were conducted under conditions representative of typical applications, with a set of greases containing some of the most common thickener types. The bearings were dismantled post-test and imaged, and the lubricant films were analysed in-situ using IR spectroscopy to assess their chemical composition. The bearings showed a typical grease distribution, with the majority situated at the raceway shoulders and shields and only a small quantity of ‘active’ lubricant remaining in the raceway. Certain IR changes were associated with shear degradation, and these were used in a novel way to assess the extent of degradation. The active lubricant was found to be oil-rich and heavily shear-degraded. Rheometry and conventional ball-on-disc testing of friction and film thickness were applied to the fresh test greases, as well as shear degraded and thermally aged samples. The degraded samples behaved very differently to fresh grease, suggesting that testing of fresh grease does not represent the friction, film thickness and rheology of the active lubricant observed in bearings. Degradation during ball-on-disc testing was compared to that of bearing tests and was found to be far more limited. Inherent problems with the ball-on-disc geometry were also identified that limit applicability to the contacts of bearings. From these findings, a novel barrel-on-ring test device was developed which aimed to replicate bearing conditions in the most salient ways. Comparison of film thickness in the new device, a ball-on-disc machine and bearings under the same starvation conditions showed that the new rig allowed reflow of grease at a much greater rate than the ball-on-disc device, approaching the film thickness of the bearings. This suggests that the novel device is more representative of bearing lubrication than standard tests, and therefore may provide better predictions about bearing performance, as well as better understanding of lubrication phenomena.

description: This thesis demonstrates the successful integration and application of chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and mutation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) within 24 hours for the detection of unaffected euploid embryos from couples at risk for genetic disease undergoing in vitro fertilization treatment. Currently, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) for detecting aneuploidy and PCR, and/or sequencing, for mutation status detection are performed at two different time points, thus, not appropriate for delivering results within a time frame suitable for a fresh embryo transfer. The techniques presented here have been optimized for analysis and reporting within a 24-hr time frame, allowing clinicians to offer their patients the option of fresh embryo transfer. Whole genome amplification (WGA) of trophectoderm embryo biopsy was performed and aliquots of WGA product were divided for CMA and for laboratory-developed fluorescent PCR coupled with capillary electrophoresis for genetic disease diagnosis. The combined protocol requires no modification of the CMA protocol and no pre-amplification steps were required prior to WGA. The WGA products were subjected to single round PCR testing for mutational and linked marker detection, except for mutations involving triplet repeats where nested PCR was necessary. Although current techniques are available for detecting aneuploidy and genetic mutation status, such as aCGH or SNP arrays for aneuploidy and PCR or sequencing for gene mutation, these methods cannot be combined for analysis within a 24-hour time frame. The successful integration and application of these important techniques provides a comprehensive diagnostic approach that can be offered to couples at risk for single-gene disorders wishing to receive a fresh embryo transfer. This new approach allows laboratories currently equipped to perform aCGH and PCR to utilize their existing setup for a novel comprehensive diagnostic protocol without additional equipment acquisition.

description: Tardive dyskinesia is a serious and limiting side effect in long-term neuroleptic treatment that is still poorly understood. This study examined the expression of enkephalin (ENK), dynorphin (DYN), and D1 dopamine receptor (DRD1) mRNA, utilizing in situ hybridization histochemistry, in a cohort of rats chronically given haloperidol (HAL) decanoate (N=43) or control (N=21) injections for 24 weeks to determine if a relationship between striatal mRNA expression and vacuous chewing movements (VCMs) in two different noise conditions could be determined. Although HAL decanoate significantly increased ENK mRNA, this increase was not correlated with VCMs. Neither a significant HAL effect nor a correlation with VCMs was found for DRD1 mRNA. While HAL decanoate did not statistically significantly increase DYN mRNA in the experimental group, a statistically significantly positive correlation was found between DYN mRNA expression and VCM rates, but only when noises were present. These results indicate that a significant change in the direct pathway contributes to the determination of VCM activity, but only in some of the rats treated with HAL, implicating individual variation in striatal DYN mRNA as playing a critical role in VCM activity, specifically in the exacerbation of VCMs by stress.

description: Current traditional methods of gathering topographic data for hydraulic modeling can be time consuming and costly. One potential method to gather topographic data in a more timely and costly efficient manner is the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and structure-from-motion (SfM) image processing. This thesis describes the comparison of Digital Elevation Models (DEM) generated from LIDAR and from Structure-from-Motion and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and the results of open channel hydraulic modeling based on these models. Unlike LIDAR, UAV+SfM topographic modeling is both time and cost efficient. However, it is still necessary to study the accuracy of its model results in comparison to traditional LIDAR models. Using Agisoft Photoscan, photos from the UAV were converted into DEM through the structure-from-motion process. The two different DEMs were then used in the HEC-RAS hydraulic model. By examining several different flows through both cross-sections, the wetted area and floodplain areas for different study sites were calculated. By analyzing the differences in elevations, channel areas, and floodplain areas between the two models, the accuracy was determined. Under the assumption that LIDAR data are correct, the results indicate that the UAV+SfM method has the promise of developing similar topographic data models compared to LIDAR, but not with enough accuracy to use in place of LIDAR given the differences in areas between the two sources.

description: Sibylline and Other Poems explores the nature of the visionary and prophetic, as pertaining to the Poet’s unique role in literature as the conduit of certain transcendent experiences. In Part I, the speaker grapples with prophecy in terms of the immediacy of the body and its relation to distortions of time, reality, and memory. Through a combination of lyric and prose forms, these poems reveal the speaker’s consciousness to be intimately tied to that of the Sibyl’s. Memories of the past and intimations of the future fuse together in a strange continuum of the transcendent. In Part II, themes of homecoming, nostalgia, movement, and bodies (in various forms, both physical and abstract), join the amalgam of visionary motifs. The long poem, “Nostos”, seeks to reckon with a fragmented and circuitous history, in which philosophy, religion, politics, and the human body become intertwined expressions of the future, past, and present.

Simultaneous rational design of ion separation membranes and processes

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: 90404 Membrane and Separation Technologies
subject: FOS: Chemical engineering

description: Economically viable water treatment process plants for drinking water purification are a prerequisite for sustainable supply of safe drinking water in the future. However, modern membrane process development experiences a disconnect in this domain: the synthesis of the membrane and the design of the process are decoupled. We propose an optimization strategy to simultaneously design the performance of layer-by-layer nanofiltration membrane modules along with the separation process. This approach achieves overall optimal performance by extending the search space and thus exploiting synergies. Better separation performances at a lower cost as compared to conventional optimization strategies can be achieved. The key feature of this optimization framework is the integration of artificial neural networks. This machine-learning technique describes the membrane performance as a function of its synthesis protocol. We optimize the design problem rigorously by a deterministic global nonlinear optimization method. Thus, this framework yields membrane synthesis protocols and membrane processes that are optimally tailored to the desired separation task. In a showcase, the simultaneous membrane synthesis and process optimization design achieve immediately favorable results with lower impurities at comparable costs. The process investment and operation costs are compared to a state of the art commercially available membrane for nanofiltration.
Evaluation of Atomic, Physical, and Thermal Properties of Bismuth Oxide Powder: An Impact of Biofield Energy Treatment

description: Bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) is known for its application in several industries such as solid oxide fuel cells, optoelectronics, gas sensors and optical coatings. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of biofield energy treatment on the atomic, physical, and thermal properties of Bi2O3. The Bi2O3 powder was equally divided into two parts: control and treated. The treated part was subjected to biofield energy treatment. After that, both control and treated samples were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The XRD data exhibited that the biofield treatment has altered the lattice parameter (-0.19%), unit cell volume (-0.58%), density (0.59%), and molecular weight (-0.57%) of the treated sample as compared to the control. The crystallite size was significantly increased by 25% in treated sample as compared to the control. Furthermore, TGA analysis showed that control and treated samples were thermally stable upto tested temperature of 831°C. Besides, the FT-IR analysis did not show any significant change in absorption wavenumber in the treated sample as compared to the control. The ESR study revealed that g-factor was increased by 13.86% in the treated sample as compared to the control. Thus, above data suggested that biofield energy treatment has altered the atomic and physical properties of Bi2O3. Therefore, the biofield treated Bi2O3 could be more useful in solid oxide fuel cell industries.

subject: Zoo

description: Animals in zoological institutions are exposed to a multitude of environmental elements daily. Understanding which factors may invoke a stress response and be indicators of negative well-being is important to improve captive management of species and enhance reproductive success. Red pandas (Ailurus fulgens) are an endangered species facing multiple threats in the wild including habitat destruction, forest fragmentation and poaching. Captive populations are vital for longevity of the species, as wild populations continue to decline. Red pandas are commonly housed in zoos across the United States, yet growth of the ex-situ population is hindered by high cub mortality. To assess their well-being, behavioral and physiological responses of red pandas were assessed in relation to climate (temperature, humidity and windspeed), zoo visitors, and noise. From June 2018 to June 2019, behavioral observations were conducted 1-2 times per week between 0800 and 1000 h on red pandas housed at the Smithsonian’s National Zoological Park and Conservation Biology Institute. Fecal samples were collected 3-7 days per week from ten individuals housed at four U.S. zoos. Fecal glucocorticoid metabolites (fGM) were measured with a corticosterone enzyme immunoassay and then analyzed in relation to environmental conditions, such as ambient temperature and ambient noise. Increased ambient temperature was associated with decreased activity and increased coping behaviors, including panting and straddle. Month of the year and the number of zoo visitors from the previous day also affected fGM concentrations such that red pandas had lower glucocorticoid concentrations May through August compared to other months. Increased zoo visitor numbers led to lower fGM concentrations the following day. Results suggest that environmental temperature impacts red panda behavior and the species displays seasonal variability in fecal glucocorticoid metabolites. Findings from the study may prove useful in improving ex-situ management and enhancing welfare by providing evidence that red pandas show the effects of temperature starting at 20℃, which is lower than threshold temperatures described in current care manual recommendations.
