title: Abrasion and impact resistance of concrete under different curing conditions
Creators: name: Seyedfarizani, Sara
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2022

description: This study aims to assess the mechanical properties, impact resistance, and abrasion resistance of a series of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) and normal vibrated concrete (NVC) mixtures under different curing conditions. The studied variables included coarse-to-fine (C/F) aggregate ratio (0.7 and 1.2), water-to-cement (w/c) ratio (0.4 and 0.55), the addition of 0.35% steel fibers (SFs), and the use of different supplementary cementing materials (SCMs) types (metakaolin (MK) and silica fume (SLF)). The research program was divided into three stages. The first stage included trial mixtures to optimize a number of SCC mixtures with different proportions. In this stage, the appropriate percentages of SCMs (MK or SLF) and the maximum percentage of SFs that can be used to develop successful SCC were optimized. The second stage included evaluation of the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and impact resistance of the optimized mixtures. The third stage investigated the flexural strength, modulus of elasticity, and abrasion resistance of the same optimized mixtures. All studied samples were cured under four different curing conditions, including moisture curing conditions at 23º C, air curing at 23º C, and cold temperatures curing conditions at +5º C and -10º C. Curing concrete at +5º C showed significant reductions in the abrasion strength, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength (STS), and impact resistance, when compared to moisture curing at 23º C. The magnitude of these reductions significantly increased when curing concrete at -10º C. Mixtures with higher C/F ratio, or higher w/b ratio, or mixtures with SFs or SCMs were more affected by the cold curing compared to the control mixture. The results also showed that cold temperature curing had a more pronounced negative effect on the impact resistance and STS compared to the compressive strength.

description: Zinnia elegans is a herbaceous annual with diverse flower colours, flower types and plant height. Zinnia elegans are popular as pot plants and also for landscape gardening. The commercial value of Zinnia can be increased with novel traits such as flower colour and form. One of the techniques to develop plant varieties with superior traits is to induce mutations using gamma radia- tion. Hence, three doses of gamma radiation (75Gy, 100Gy and 125Gy) were utilised to obtain new and novel varieties of Zinnia elegans var. Dreamland and to study the effect of gamma rays on germination of seeds, growth and survival of the seedlings, height of the plants. All the three gamma ray doses were found to decrease the germination and survival of seeds of Zinnia elegans. The higher doses of gamma rays were found to be detrimental for the germination and survival of seeds and height of the seedlings. Phenotypical variations such as plant height, the number of flowers and flower diameter of the third genera- tion mutants were highly significant as compared to the control. Eight floral variations could be obtained with novel form and colour.

description: In recent years there has been frequent reference to the significance of strigolactones as a new group of hormones which might have a significant effect on horticultural production. The aim of this work was to find an ideal combination of stable synthetic strigolactones and plant extracts with potential effects on onion plants. The synthetic strigolactone Fenyl 7 (dihydro-3-[[2,5- dihydro-4-methyl-5-oxo-2-furanyl)oxy]-methylene]-5-phenyl-2(3H)-furanone) was tested in a carrot macerate, with citric acid and with salicylic acid. From the results it was confirmed that increasing the pH of the preparation leads to improving the stability of Fenyl 7. Evaluation has repeatedly confirmed the effect of the preparation, combining synthetic strigolactone and a macerate of carrot in a mixture of surfactants with added citric acid. In all the experiments this combination showed a statistically demonstrable influence on leaf weight (increased by 12-31%) and length (increased by 6-13%) in comparison with the controls.

Synthesis and characterization of melting gel-wax composites
Creators: name: Ryan, Caillin
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Sol-gel processing is an integral tool in developing inorganic-organic nanocomposite materials from wet chemistry techniques. By controlling the hydrolysis and condensation of various alkoxysilane precursors, tunable hybrid structures and properties can be achieved. A special class of sol-gel nanocomposites are so called “melting gels”, which thermally cure like an epoxy, but produce organically functionalized silicates. These melting gels are noted for their adhesion, hermeticity, chemical stability, and thermal stability.This thesis focuses on the synthesis and characterization of new wax-melting gel composites. Both paraffin and microcrystalline waxes were successfully dispersed as microparticles in a melting gel matrix through in-situ emulsification with a silicone-based surfactant. “Par-gels” and “Micro-gels” were synthesized with between 5.2 and 17.6 vol% wax. The samples were characterized using profilometry, optical microscopy, and SEM analysis. Additionally, the dielectric behavior of these wax-gels was evaluated in the RF spectral range (~1-1000 kHz) and measured as a function of cumulative thermal history.It was found that the emulsion stability of Par-gels is greater than that of Micro-gels. Specifically, Micro-gels contained internal pools of wax and surface segregated wax islands, while Par-gels showed more uniform mixing. Using image analysis with SEM and optical microscopy to resolve particle sizes, the distributions were best fitted with a Gamma distribution for particle sizes between ~0.1-300 microns. Micro-gels exhibited larger median particle sizes than Par-gels, but both showed that the majority of their wax content was microparticles between ~5-50 microns. Additionally, it was found that the dielectric properties were insensitive to wax content from 0-17.6 vol%. In addition, one week of sustained thermal treatments at ~175°C caused the dielectric behavior of all samples to converge into a narrow range. These thermal aging effects suggest that melting gels continue to undergo structural changes beyond the recommended consolidation conditions.

description: Bud dormancy is an adaptability process in woody plants that enables them to survive in unfavorable conditions. In the present study, the phenols, antioxidant capacity, and activity of three enzymes were evaluated during endodormancy phases in two Hayward and Tomuri cultivars and two female and male Golden genotypes of kiwifruit buds. The buds were collected from ten-year-old own-rooted vines from the end of October 2015 until the end of January 2016 in the north of Iran. The results revealed that phenols, antioxidant capacity (RSA), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activities of buds significantly increased at the beginning of endodormancy and subsequently decreased at the end of the endodormancy. The POD activity increased in Hayward and Tomuri from the onset of endodormancy and continued for two weeks after the endodormancy release. The total phenol had a positive and significant correlation with RSA and PAL enzyme activity. Furthermore, higher antioxidant capacity and phenols in both male and female Golden genotypes were attributed to the higher PAL enzyme activity in both genotypes. This study proposes that the RSA%, PAL activity, and phenol concentration could be employed as a biomarker to indicate bud dormancy phases in kiwifruit.

description: As SMEFT is a framework of growing importance to analyze high-energy data, understanding its parameter space is crucial. The latter is commonly split into CP-even and CP-odd parts, but this classification is obscured by the fact that CP violation is actually a collective effect that is best captured by considering flavor-invariant combinations of Lagrangian parameters. First we show that fermion rephasing invariance imposes that several coefficients associated to dimension-six operators can never interfere with operators of dimension $\leq4$ and thus cannot appear in any physical observable at ${\cal O}\left(1/\Lambda^2\right)$. For those that can, instead, we establish a one-to-one correspondence with CP-odd flavor invariants, all linear with respect to SMEFT coefficients. We explicitly present complete lists of such linear CP-odd invariants, and carefully examine their relationship to CP breaking throughout the parameter space of coefficients of dimension $\leq 4$. Requiring that these invariants all vanish, together with the Jarlskog invariant, the strong-CP phase, and the 6 CP-violating dimension-6 bosonic operators, provides $699(+1+1+6)$ conditions for CP conservation to hold in any observable at leading order, ${\cal O}\left(1/\Lambda^2\right)$.

description: Urbanization and poverty have brought to worse life conditions in towns of many developing countries, including difficult availability of food, especially fresh. Urban agriculture and horticulture can contribute to the avail- ability of fresh foods, officinal and medicinal plants, but the little availability of irrigation and surface to destine for cropping suggest the convenience of little water consuming species, with little needs of soil fertility and that can be eaten entirely. Opuntia fiscus-indica (L.) Mill. corresponds at all these requirements, and it is a very promising strategic species that can be eaten completely (green parts, fruits and even flowers), it has good nutritional values and also interest- ing medical properties. A trial has been done to compare the initial productivity of cladodes multiplied in pots, car tires and open field. Our results suggest that the prickly pear can be cropped better in large exhausted tires than in small plots also saving money for the materials.

description: In ovarian cancer, therapy resistance mechanisms complicate cancer cell eradication. Targeting Musashi RNA-binding proteins (MSI) may increase therapeutic efficacy. Database analyses were performed to identify gene expression associations between MSI proteins and key therapy resistance and cancer stem cell (CSC) genes. Then, ovarian cancer cells were subjected to siRNA- based dual knockdown of MSI-1 and MSI-2. CSC and cell cycle gene expression was investigated using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), western blots, and flow cytometry. Metabolic activity and chemoresistance were assessed by MTT assay. Clonogenic assays were used to quantify cell survival post-irradiation. Database analyses demonstrated positive associations between MSI proteins and putative CSC markers NOTCH, MYC, and ALDH4A1 and negative associations with NOTCH inhibitor NUMB. MSI-2 expression was negatively associated with the apoptosis regulator p21. MSI-1 and MSI-2 were positively correlated, informing subsequent dual knockdown experiments. After MSI silencing, CSC genes were downregulated, while cell cycle progression was reduced. Metabolic activity was decreased in some cancer cells. Both chemo- and radioresistance were reduced after dual knockdown, suggesting therapeutic potential. Dual knockdown of MSI proteins is a promising venue to impede tumor growth and sensitize ovarian cancer cells to irradiation and chemotherapy.

description: Mixing brackish water with conventional quality water for irrigation in ratios to maintain satisfactory vigor of grapevines might be a feasible man- agement practice. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of three grape rootstocks that are used worldwide and locally; R110, 41B and P1103, irrigated with three salinity levels: 1.5, 3.0 and 5.0 dS m-1 in addition to the 0.8 dS m-1 control. A randomized complete block design was used with three blocks of 12 pots each. ‘Superior Seedless’ grafted on P1103 showed bet- ter performance regarding chlorophyll content, stem length and number of young leaves and even growth after bud break. It does seem that grapevine rootstocks that have either V. rupestris or V. berlandieri in their parentage are good candidates for salinity tolerance. It can be concluded that irrigation with diluted brackish water can be practiced for a certain period of time (two months from April to June); according to our findings under conditions of the experiment, to be followed by irrigation with good quality water in order to flush excessive salts out of the root zone.

description: Grapevine rootstocks that can absorb brackish water and maintain satisfactory growth of the grapevine scion might be a feasible management practice in areas suffering scarce water resources. The objective of this study was to evaluate the expression of antioxidant genes in ‘Superior Seedless’ leaves grafted on R110 (Vitis berlandieri x V. rupestris), 41B (V. berlandieri x V. vinifera) and P1103 (V. berlandieri x V. rupestris) in response to diluted brack- ish water irrigation at three levels: 1.5, 3.0 and 5.0 dS m-1 in addition to the 0.8 dS m-1 control. Results revealed that after salinity exposure for two weeks, the transcript levels of APX, Mn-SOD and MDAR increased in ‘Superior Seedless’ leaves grafted on the different rootstocks. However, their expression levels in response to salinity were noticeably higher in plants grafted on P1103 and R110 compared to 41B. The expression of CAT gene showed obvious enhanced level in plants grafted on P1103 in response to salt exposure. Meanwhile, the expres- sion of CAT gene in ‘Superior Seedless’ scion grafted on 41B or R110 showed almost unchanged level in control and stressed conditions. Down-regulation of CuZn-SOD was recorded in leaves of ‘Superior Seedless’ grafted on P1103. Slight up-regulation of this gene in response to saline condition was recorded when scion was grafted on 41B or R110. The expression of GPX was enhanced in scion grafted on P1103 and 41B. On the other hand, scion grafted on R110 showed decreased expression of GPX in response to salt treatment. Grapevine root- stocks that have V. rupestris and V. berlandieri in their parentage are good can- didates for salinity tolerance.

description: Table olives are a common and well-known food in the whole Mediterranean area, produced and consumed in great quantities. Many deep-green olives can be found on sale in the South of Italy. Sometimes their unnatural color could be the result of the fraudulent addition of a coloring agent (E141ii, copper chlorophyllins) during the pickling process, in spite of the European Union legislation that does not allow the addition of any colorant to table olives. The objectives of this study were to detect fraudulent color adulteration of table olives with E141ii in Italian market and to confirm the presence on the market of artificially colored table olives. We assessed the presence of compounds with chromatographic and spectral characteristics similar to the ones from the E141ii (Cu chlorin e6, Cu isochlorin e4, Cu pyropheophorbide a) in 8 samples out of 16. These result show that the fraudulent addition of colorant to table olives is a quite common practice. More pressing controls and analysis are required to ensure the complete food safety and the compliance with the current law.

description: We investigate the observed muon deficit in air shower simulations when compared to ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) data. Based upon the observed enhancement of strangeness production in high-energy hadronic collisions reported by the ALICE Collaboration, the concomitant $\pi \leftrightarrow K$ swap is considered as the keystone to resolve the muon anomaly through its corresponding impact on the shower development. We construct a toy model in terms of the $\pi \leftrightarrow K$ swapping probability $F_s$. We present a parametrization of $F_s$ in terms of the pseudorapidity that can accommodate the UHECR data. Looking to the future, we explore potential strategies for model improvement using the massive amounts of data to be collected by LHC neutrino detectors, such as FASER$\nu$ and experiments at the Forward Physics Facility. We calculate the corresponding sensitivity to $F_s$ and show that these experiments will be able to probe the model phase space.

description: The growing interest in the interactions between dark matter particles and electrons has received a further boost by the observation of an excess in electron recoil events in the XENON1T experiment. Of particular interest are dark matter models in which the scattering process is inelastic, such that the ground state can upscatter into an excited state. The subsequent exothermic downscattering of such excited states on electrons can lead to observable signals in direct detection experiments and gives a good fit to the XENON1T excess. In this work, we study terrestrial upscattering, i.e. inelastic scattering of dark matter particles on nuclei in the Earth, as a plausible origin of such excited states. Using both analytical and Monte Carlo methods, we obtain detailed predictions of their density and velocity distribution. These results enable us to explore the time dependence of the flux of excited states resulting from the rotation of the Earth. For the case of XENON1T, we find the resulting daily modulation of the electron recoil signal to be at the level of 10% with a strong dependence on the dark matter mass.

description: Effects of water stress deficit were studied on xylem anatomical fea- tures and some growth parameters among six olive grafting combinations; Amygdalifolia/Arbequina (Am/Ar), Amygdalifolia/Koroneiki (Am/Ko), Amygdalifolia/Zard (Am/Z), Conservallia/Koroneiki (Co/Ko), Conservallia/Zard (Co/Z) and Conservallia/Arbequina (Co/Ar) of about three-year-old olive trees (Olea europaea L.) under greenhouse conditions. To realize this, a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD). The results showed that rootstocks exhibited significant effects on scions xylem anatomical physiognomies, such as vessel lumen area (VLA) and vessel diame- ter (VD) and additionally on some growth indices including main stem length (SL), lateral shoot number (LSN) and graft union-cross sectional area (GU-CSA). Xylem anatomical characteristics including VLA, porosity, vessel frequency (VF) and VD of scions decreased when they were grafted onto Arbequina and Koroneiki rootstocks, but increased onto Zard rootstock. All growth parameters showed a decrease under drought stress, while this reduction was more pro- nounced for Zard rootstock than the other rootstocks. However, Co/Z showed the highest VF and the lowest vulnerability index (VI) and exhibited a better performance at the end of recovery.

description: Shading greenhouse may be an effective method to achieve a suitable environment for crop growth and to enhance crop yield and quality in places or seasons where there is high light intensity. Therefore, solar radiation levels may modify the biomass accumulation and bromatological composition. Different solar radiation levels (100%, 70% and 50% of available solar radiation) were simulated in order to determine crop responses to these factors in chicory (Cichorium intybus L. var. foliosum). A hydroponic experiment was conducted in an experimental greenhouse in the city of Frederico Westphalen, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Plants grown in lower solar radiation levels are more efficient in converting solar radiation into dry matter, had a higher lipid content, increased chlorophyll indices a, b and total, as well as reduced leaf thickness, acid deter- gent fiber, cellulose, and lignin content, presenting more attractive bromato- logical features for commercial production. In this study it was demonstrated that the use of shading screens is an effective method to attenuate the solar radiation, this is especially relevant in places or seasons where there is high light intensity, which contribute to achieve better characteristics of the chicory produced.

description: We study the direct-detection rate for axial-vectorial dark matter scattering off nuclei in an $\mathrm{SU}(2)\times \mathrm{U}(1)$ invariant effective theory and compare it against the LHC reach. Current constraints from direct detection experiments are already bounding the mediator mass to be well into the TeV range for WIMP-like scenarios. This motivates a consistent and systematic exploration of the parameter space to map out possible regions where the rates could be suppressed. We do indeed find such regions and proceed to construct consistent UV models that generate the relevant effective theory. We then discuss the corresponding constraints from both collider and direct-detection experiments on the same parameter space. We find a benchmark scenario, where even for future XENONnT experiment, LHC constraints will have a greater sensitivity to the mediator mass.

description: Studies on traditional medicinal plants (TMPs) found in the South Pacific that holds potential for the insect controls have been reviewed. Few TMPs are known to have insecticidal properties, however many of those are still unknown in the South Pacific. The information on plants were collected using online databases such as Science Direct, PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus and Springer Open in order to confirm the studies that support the insecticidal properties of plants present in the South Pacific. The following study confirmed that there is a potential for the selected TMPs suggesting enough evidence for their usage in the insecticidal activities. These plants would represent an alter- native in crop protection due to its novel, safe and eco-friendly substitutes for its effective insecticidal properties.
