description: Este manual é parte de um projeto chamado Vidas Secas. O projeto Vidas Secas foi idealizado pela equipe do ambulatório de disfunções do assoalho pélvico (DAP) do Complexo Hospital de Clínicas da Universidade Federal do Paraná que atende pacientes com DAP, como retenção e incontinência urinária. O cateterismo intermitente limpo é uma forma de esvaziar a bexiga quando alguma condição clínica impede que isso aconteça espontaneamente da maneira adequada. Ele evita que o resíduo de urina que fica retido na bexiga cause problemas como infecções urinárias e disfunções nos rins. Esse procedimento é simples e seguro você mesmo pode realizá-lo. Como é uma situação nova, sabemos que duvidas poderão surgir, por isso desenvolvemos este manual que explicará todos os passos.

The Effect of Temperature and Salinity on the Depuration of Hepatitis A Virus and Other Microbial Contaminants from the Eastern Oyster
Creators: name: Bachur, Beth E.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1988

description: Comparative studies were done to evaluate the elimination of hepatitis A virus (HAV), poliovirus 1, MS2 bacteriophage, Esherichia coli, and Streptococcus faecalis in experimentally contaminated Eastern oysters in a laboratory-scale depuration system. The effect of temperature (12, 18, and 25°C) and salinity (8, 18, and 28 ppt) on virus and bacteria depuration was studied. The oysters were contaminated with high levels of organisms in order to follow depuration over several orders of magnitude during several days of depuration. At each day of the depuration period, a sample of contaminated oysters was removed from the tanks and processed for bacteriological and virological analysis. The depuration system was maintained within the range of the environmental conditions required by the U.S. water quality depuration standards. HAV was not effectively depurated and was detected at generally higher levels than the other test organisms at all the conditions tested. Depuration rates were reduced at lower temperature and lower salinity. These results indicate that depuration may not be an effective means of eliminating HAV and other pathogens from contaminated oysters under some depurating conditions. KEY WORDS: hepatitis A virus (HAV), poliovirus 1, MS2 bacteriophage, Esherichia coli. Streptococcus faecalis, fecal coliform, depuration, bivalves, and oysters.

Do magnetic fields enhance turbulence at low magnetic Reynolds number ?

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Imposing a magnetic field on a turbulent flow of electrically conducting fluid incurs the Joule effect. A current paradigm is that the corresponding dissipation increases with the intensity of the magnetic field, and as a result turbulent fluctuations are all the more damped as the magnetic field is strong. While this idea finds apparent support in the phenomenology of decaying turbulence, measurements of turbulence in duct flows and other, more complex configurations have produced seemingly contradicting results. The root of the controversy is that magnetic fields promote sufficient scale-dependent anisotropy to profoundly reorganise the structure of turbulence, so their net effect cannot be understood in terms of the additional dissipation only. Here we show that when turbulence is forced in a magnetic field that acts on turbulence itself rather than on the mechanisms that generate it, the field promotes large, nearly 2D structures capturing sufficient energy to offset the loss due to Joule dissipation, with the net effect of increasing the intensity of turbulent fluctuations. This change of paradigm potentially carries important consequences for systems as diverse as the liquid cores of planets, accretion disks and a wide range of metallurgical and nuclear engineering applications.

Fungi as a Cause of Indoor Air Pollution: A Literature Review and Case Report
Creators: name: Langley, Ricky L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1988

description: Adverse health problems resulting from indoor air pollution have become more apparent over the last two decades. Because of the Legionella outbreaks in the 1970's, biologic agents have been recognized as one of the important causes of indoor air pollution. Biologic agents can cause either infections or allergies, and techniques for collection and handling of biologic samples are frequently unfamiliar to the industrial hygenist. This paper is a review of indoor air pollution due to fungi and describes infections and allergies which may occur in building occupants. An approach to investigating sick building syndrome is also described. Also, an example of sick building syndrome at a local university due to fungal contamination is reported.

Minimalist coupled evolution model for stellar x-ray activity, rotation, mass loss, and magnetic field

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Late-type main sequence stars exhibit an x-ray to bolometric flux ratio that depends on ${\tilde Ro}$, the ratio of rotation period to convective turnover time, as ${\tilde Ro}^{-ζ}$ with $2\le ζ\le 3$ for ${\tilde Ro} >0.13$, but saturates with $|ζ| <0.2$ for ${\tilde Ro} < 0.13$. Saturated stars are younger than unsaturated stars and show a broader spread of rotation rates and x-ray activity. The unsaturated stars have magnetic fields and rotation speeds that scale roughly with the square root of their age, though possibly flattening for stars older than the sun. The connection between faster rotators, stronger fields, and higher activity has been established observationally, but a theory for the unified time-evolution of x-ray luminosity, rotation, magnetic field and mass loss that captures the above trends has been lacking. Here we derive a minimalist holistic framework for the time evolution of these quantities built from combining a Parker wind with new ingredients: (1) explicit sourcing of both the thermal energy launching the wind and the x-ray luminosity via dynamo produced magnetic fields; (2) explicit coupling of x-ray activity and mass loss saturation to dynamo saturation (via magnetic helicity build-up and convection eddy shredding); (3) use of coronal equilibrium to determine how magnetic energy is divided into wind and x-ray contributions. For solar-type stars younger than the sun, we infer conduction to be a subdominant power loss compared to x-rays and wind. For older stars, conduction is more important, possibly quenching the wind and reducing angular momentum loss. We focus on the time evolution for stars younger than the sun, highlighting what is possible for further generalizations. Overall, the approach shows promise toward a unified explanation of all of the aforementioned observational trends.

Sustainability Assessment of the Biosand Filter in Bonao, Dominican Republic
Creators: name: Aiken, Benjamin A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: Access to clean drinking water is not a reality for approximately 1.1 billion people in the world, leading to approximately 1.6 million children dying each year due to diarrheal diseases linked to unsafe drinking water. Household water treatment at the point-of-use (POU) has proven effective in improving microbiological water quality and reducing diarrheal disease among users in both laboratory and field studies. The Biosand filter (BSF), an intermittently operated, slow sand filter, is a promising POU technology, although little follow-up of the initial positive study and trial results has occurred to assess BSF sustainability. The purpose of this study was to assess the sustainability of previously implemented BSFs in and around Bonao, Dominican Republic (DR) through two approaches: 1) cross-sectional analysis of continued use, performance effectiveness, and sustained water quality improvement, and 2) longitudinal analysis of sustained health impact, measured as diarrheal disease, and sustained water quality improvement. Over 90% of the BSFs were found still in use after an average of one year since installation. Incidence rates of diarrheal disease were reduced by 61% for BSF intervention households in comparison with non-BSF control households. Water quality improvement, as measured by reduction of fecal indicator bacteria, was found to be low (84 to 88%) ) in comparison to reductions seen in the laboratory but comparable to analogous rates seen for the BSF in other field assessments. Together, the results suggest the BSF is a highly sustainable POU water treatment technology.

description: A rotor configuration on a graph contains in every vertex an infinite ordered sequence of rotors, each is pointing to a neighbor of the vertex. After sampling a configuration according to some probability measure, a rotor walk is a deterministic process: at each step it chooses the next unused rotor in its current location, and uses it to jump to the neighboring vertex to which it points. Rotor walks capture many aspects of the expected behavior of simple random walks. However, this similarity breaks down for the property of having an infinite excursion. In this paper we study that question for natural random configuration models on regular trees. Our results suggest that in this context the rotor model behaves like the simple random walk unless it is not "close to" the standard rotor-router model.

Impurity-directed Transport within a Finite Disordered Lattice

description: We consider a finite, disordered 1D quantum lattice with a side-attached impurity. We study theoretically the transport of a single electron from the impurity into the lattice, at zero temperature. The transport is dominated by Anderson localization and, in general, the electron motion has a random character due to the lattice disorder. However, we show that by adjusting the impurity energy the electron can attain quasi-periodic motions, oscillating between the impurity and a small region of the lattice. This region corresponds to the center of a localized state in the lattice with an energy matched by that of the impurity. By precisely tuning the impurity energy, the electron can be set to oscillate between the impurity and a region far from the impurity, even distances larger than the Anderson localization length. The electron oscillations result from the interference of hybridized states, which have some resemblance to Pendry's necklace states [J. B. Pendry, J. Phys. C: Solid State Phys. 20, 733-742 (1987)]. The dependence of the electron motion on the impurity energy gives a potential mechanism for selectively routing an electron towards different regions of a 1D disordered lattice.

Buoyant Coarse Media Flocculation: A Field Study
Creators: name: Gandley, Robert E.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: The roots of this research stem from the theories of hydraulic flocculation developed by Smoluchowski in the early portion of the twentieth century as well as later research by Camp and Stein in the 1940's. Their work was aimed at better understanding the principles involved during the flocculation stage of drinking water treatment. The combination of coagulation and flocculation followed by sedimentation, filtration and disinfection have been the norm in the treatment of drinking water since the 1920's. While this project was focused on improving the flocculation step of the drinking water treatment process, it is important to note that changes in any stage of treatment affect every subsequent stage. This report will attempt to keep that notion in mind and not lose sight of the larger picture which is overall treatment and finished water quality.

description: The topological entanglement entropy (TEE) is a robust measurement of the quantum many-body state with topological order. In fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state, it has a connection to the quantum dimension of the state itself and its quasihole excitations from the conformal field theory (CFT) description. We study the entanglement entropy (EE) in the Moore-Read (MR) and Read-Rezayi (RR) FQH states. The non-Abelian quasi- hole excitation induces an extra correction of the TEE which is related to its quantum dimension. With considering the effects of the disorder, the ground state TEE is stable before the spectral gap closing and the level statistics seems to have significant change with a stronger disorder, which indicates a many-body localization (MBL) transition.

Ranking task with three types of event sets

Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: Our goal is to use an event ranking task to investigate sampling-based models of probability judgements. On each trial of the ranking task, participants will be asked to provide a ranking for an event set consisting of two pairs of complementary events, {A, ¬A, B, ¬B} (where ¬ denotes “not”), regarding their perceived likelihoods of occurrence. We formally derived qualitative predictions for this task based on the sampling-based models that assume direct sampling from the fixed underlying probability distributions. We also showed that adding read-out noise in the sampling process as suggested in the Probability Theory plus Noise model (Costello & Watts, 2014) will not vastly change the qualitative predictions. The current study aims to test the qualitative predictions we derived. Please see the attached file for a more detailed description of the study.
Effect of Snails (Elimia clavaeformis) on Phosphorus Cycling in Stream Periphyton and Leaf Detritus Communities
Creators: name: Jay, Elizabeth A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1993

description: In this study, I examined the effect of grazing on phosphorus cycling in stream periphyton and leaf detritus communities using the snail Elimia clavaeformis. Phosphorus cycling fluxes and turnover rates were measured in a laboratory and in a natural stream, respectively, using radioactive tracer techniques. Snails increased phosphorus fluxes and turnover rates from the communities. However, this effect was only significant for turnover rates from detritus, perhaps because higher fecal production rates occurred when snails grazed on detritus compared with periphyton. When the phosphorus concentration in water was increased in algal studies, cycling fluxes were not significantly affected when snails were present, but were significantly reduced when snails were absent. My results indicate that although snails may not strongly affect phosphorus cycling, snails can enhance phosphorus turnover from certain substrates such as leaf detritus. In addition, the effect of snails on phosphorus cycling from leaf detritus depends on the fate of the large flux of phosphorus into fecal matter. Because the experimental design of my studies involved substrates commonly grazed by snails, I have been able to observe how phosphorus cycling in streams is influenced by snails.

description: Promulgué par Henri IV en avril 1598, l’édit de Nantes mit fin aux guerres de religion et propulsa la France dans une situation inédite en Europe à l’époque, soit celle d’une coexistence religieuse légale entre catholiques et protestants. S’inscrivant dans cette période, l’analyse se situe à la croisée de plusieurs axes historiographiques et s’oriente selon le paradigme de « l’ordre », plus spécifiquement celui des ordres urbains, dans une optique où la religion demeurait indissociable des autres sphères d’activités de la vie citadine. Globalement, il s’agit de déterminer comment ce régime de coexistence a influencé les villes, dont le tissu social pouvait désormais être composé de membres appartenant aux deux dénominations religieuses. La thèse observe cet impact à travers l’étude des cérémonies publiques qui faisaient partie intégrante de l’expérience urbaine des Français des XVIe-XVIIe siècles. L’étude se penche sur trois cas qui se situaient dans le Midi, en plein coeur du « croissant réformé », soit Toulouse, Montauban et Castres. Plus spécifiquement, l’analyse démontre comment leur ordre urbain respectif s’est transformé durant le régime de l’édit de Nantes (1598-1685), comment ils ont influencé la teneur des cérémonies publiques et le sens que ces dernières ont procuré à ces sociétés urbaines en retour. Essentiellement qualitative, la démarche mobilise des cas de cérémonies publiques spécifiques dont les motifs furent tantôt religieux (Fête-Dieu, Délivrance, élévations de reliques et jeûnes publics), tantôt politiques (entrées royales, entrées solennelles et réjouissances commandées par le régime monarchique). La thèse met au jour le destin de trois villes qui se distinguaient par un choix confessionnel déterminant au moment de la rupture des guerres de religion, mais aussi par l’imbrication originale des divers corps urbains qui y oeuvraient et leurs interactions en lien avec l’organisation et le déroulement des cérémonies. La démarche expose les résultantes locales de dynamiques plus générales qui traversent la période, dont celle de la centralisation monarchique et de la catholicisation de la société, deux tendances lourdes qui se répercutèrent sur l’ensemble de la société française d’Ancien régime, mais qui entraînèrent des conséquences propres à chacune des villes.

description: In this paper we explore the advantage of using the Kerr-Schild Ansatz in the search of analytic configurations to bigravity. It turns out that it plays a crucial role by providing means to straightforwardly calculate the square root matrix encoding the interaction terms between both gravities. We rederive in this spirit the Babichev-Fabbri family of asymptotically flat rotating black holes with the aid of an emerging circularity theorem. Taking into account that the interaction terms contain by default two cosmological constants, we repeat our approach starting from the more natural seeds for the Kerr-Schild Ansatz in this context: the (A)dS spacetimes. As result, we show that a couple of Kerr-(A)dS black holes constitute an exact solution to ghost free bigravity. These black holes share the same angular momentum and (A)dS radius but their masses are not constrained to be equal, similarly to the asymptotically flat case.

description: Astronomical events like solar eclipses have played a transformative role in human social collectives—as sources of collective wonder, inspiration, and reconciliation. Do celestial phenomena systematically shape individuals and their groups? Guided by scientific treatments of awe as an experience that helps fold individuals into collectives, we use Twitter data (N = 2,891,611 users) to examine the social impact of a historic, awe-inspiring celestial event: the 2017 solar eclipse. Relative to individuals residing outside the eclipse’s path, individuals inside it exhibited more awe and expressed less self-focused and more prosocial, affiliative, humble, and collective language (Study 1). Further, individuals who exhibited elevated awe surrounding the eclipse used more prosocial, affiliative, humble, and collective language relative to their pre-eclipse levels and users exhibiting less awe (Study 2). These findings indicate that astronomical events may play a vital collective function by arousing awe and social tendencies that orient individuals toward their collectives.
Estimation of Ammonia Emission Rates From a Swine Farm Waste Lagoon Using Environmental CAT Scanning
Creators: name: Ramanathan, Mallika
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1999

description: An innovative approach for creating two-dimensional concentration maps of chemicals in air was used for the first time to estimate ammonia emissions off of a six-acre waste lagoon at a swine-intensive facility. This technique combines Open-Path Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (OP-FTIR) with computed tomography (CT) and is called "Environmental CAT Scanning". The technique scans an entire area in real-time, and allows spatial variations to be captured and visualized. Two rotating OP-FTIR spectrometers and twelve retroreflectors were placed on the periphery of the lagoon and infrared beams were shot across the lagoon every few seconds. To estimate emission rates, tracer gas was released at a known rate from the center of the lagoon. Measurements were taken approximately one meter above the surface of the lagoon. Two-dimensional maps reconstructing the sampled surface were made every two minutes during the days and evenings over several seasons. Average ammonia emission rates for November 1997 and May 1998 were 2,300 ug-N/min-m2 and 4,800 ug-N/min-m2, respectively. Using this method, concentrations of ammonia and nitrous oxide (N2O) were visualized near the surface of the lagoon. The visualizations showed that ammonia varied as much as 3.5x over the surface of the lagoon and N2O varied as much as 1.5x over the surface of the lagoon.

description: In this paper, we solve the long standing open problem on exact dimensionality of self-affine measures on the plane. We show that every self-affine measure on the plane is exact dimensional regardless of the choice of the defining iterated function system. In higher dimensions, under certain assumptions, we prove that self-affine and quasi self-affine measures are exact dimensional. In both cases, the measures satisfy the Ledrappier-Young formula.

Apotheosis, apocalypse, and the epistemic collapse: technology and the semiotics of fear
Creators: name: Viidalepp, Auli
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: For Lotman, it is human nature to want to 'foresee' the future. This desire is reinforced in times of crisis, of which we seem to currently be experiencing several. One of the most critical problems for this desire is the fundamental unpredictability of sociocultural events. Therefore, the quest to “control” the future is often manifest in attempts to mechanize the socio-cultural world and minimize both chance and human agency. Such endeavours have occurred throughout history, first in the conception of mechanistic philosophy, then applied as various forms of automata, scientific instruments, Industrial Revolution, and today, in the applications of “artificial intelligence” (AI). The speed of current technological progress is perceived to outpace any historical precedent. In the context of added global environmental changes, the accompanying fear of an unpredictable future culminates in eschatological visions of AI-induced apocalypse. The presentation frames the problem of fear and its articulations in techno-discourse as specific types of tension between discrete and non-discrete types of signification (Lotman, Uspensky 1978; J. Lotman 2007, 2019; Madisson 2014) and the semiotics of fear (Madisson 2010; Ventsel et al. 2021; M. Lotman 2009a). The combination of different types of signification and the discourse of fear revives archaic code-texts underlying the contemporary discourse on AI.

description: We apply new techniques to Gerstenhaber brackets on the Hochschild cohomology of a skew group algebra formed from a polynomial ring and a finite group (in characteristic 0). We show that the Gerstenhaber brackets can always be expressed in terms of Schouten brackets. We obtain as consequences some conditions under which brackets are always 0, strengthening known results.

Micro Hydropower in the North Carolina Piedmont: Hydrologic, Economic and Political Constraints on Retrofitting Existing Low-Head Dams
Creators: name: Sandt, Christopher
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: The integration of hydropower facilities on existing low-head dams may serve as a small, yet useful decentralized source of sustainable energy. We conducted a feasibility study specific to four North Carolina river basins, cataloguing over 1,000 non-Federal dams with hydraulic head ranging from 15 feet to 35 feet (4.57 to 10.67 meters). Power capacity for these dams is less than 300 kW, thus qualify in gas "micro" hydropower sites. Generation potential, greenhouse gas reductions, and financial viability were refined for 49 low-head dams over a 30-year life cycle using RETScreen4 software. Results suggest that most of these dams are not financially viable for energy production under current cost structures. Sensitivity and risk analyses (Monte Carlo simulations) suggest that financial viability is most influenced by electricity pricing. Up to 14 of the low-head dams studied may become viable if provided funding opportunities comparable to the current wind and solar markets.

A novel Randall-Sundrum model with $S_{3}$ flavor symmetry

description: We propose a simple and predictive model of fermion masses and mixing in a warped extra dimension, with the smallest discrete non-Abelian group $S_{3}$ and the discrete symmetries $Z_{2}\otimes Z_{4}$. Standard Model fields propagate in the bulk and the mass hierarchies and mixing angles are accounted for the fermion zero modes localization profiles, similarly to the the Randall-Sundrum (RS) model. To the best of our knowledge, this model is the first implementation of an $S_{3}$ flavor symmetry in this type of warped extra dimension framework. Our model successfully describes the fermion masses and mixing pattern and is consistent with the current low energy fermion flavor data. The discrete flavor symmetry in our model leads to predictive mixing inspired textures, where the Cabbibo mixing arises from the down type quark sector whereas up type quark sector contributes to the remaining mixing angles.
