Lexiphone : an experimental reading machine for the blind
Creators: name: Caple, Charles Garry Akerman
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: An experimental reading machine for the blind has been built to test a proposed multidimensional audible code. This device, patterned after the popular Optophone reader, can generate either the multidimensional code or a simulated version of the Optophone code. The results of tests carried out with two blind subjects show that multidimensionally-encoded letters and words can be learned and "read" with reasonable accuracy, even when entirely different dimensions of the code are utilized. A comparative evaluation of the multidimensional and Optophone codes, based on the performance of 52 sighted persons, suggests that the multidimensional code provides a better basis for letter discrimination. A detailed study of the discrete print signals produced by this machine is presented. The results of this study suggest that this particular print scanning system does not lend itself to automatic letter recognition, but that, with some pre-processing of the print information, some optimization of the audible code can be achieved. It is also demonstrated that the information produced by this machine is highly redundant, and that the discrete nature of the print translation process may psychologically limit the maximum reading speed, regardless of the audible code employed.
Anderson Transition in Disordered Bilayer Graphene

description: Employing the Kernel Polynomial method (KPM), we study the electronic properties of the graphene bilayers in the presence of diagonal disorder, within the tight-binding approximation. The KPM method enables us to calculate local density of states (LDOS) without need to exactly diagonalize the Hamiltonian. We use the geometrical averaging of the LDOS's at different lattice sites as a criterion to distinguish the localized states from extended ones. We find that bilayer graphene undergoes Anderson metal-insulator transition at a critical value of disorder strength.
Aspects of nonlinear system stability.
Creators: name: Christensen, Gustav Strom
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis treats system stabilty from three separate points of view. 1. State Space Analysis 2. Complex Frequency Plane Analysis 3. Time Domain Analysis Asymptotic stability is considered in state space. Using state space and the gradient method an expression is derived for the total time derivative of the Liapunov function. This expression is a special case of the general Zubov equation, however, it does not lend itself to an explicit, exact solution except in special cases. Global asymptotic stability and bounded input -bounded output stability is considered in the complex frequency plane. Here a method developed by Sandberg has been applied to some systems the linear part of which has poles on the imaginary axis. The solution of an example of this type via the Sandberg method and the Popov method shows that the two methods give essentially the same result for the example considered. Bounded input - bounded output stability is considered in the time domain using two separate methods. One, a method developed by Barrett using Volterra series has been extended to cover cases with a nonlinearity of 2nd and 4th degree. Two, a method depending on the contraction mapping principle is developed and applied to several types of systems. It is shown that this method generates the Volterra series found by Barrett's method, and thus we can actually determine a region where, the solution of a given differential equation can be represented in the form of a Volterra series.

description: Gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background by large-scale structure in the late universe is both a source of cosmological information and a potential contaminant of primordial gravity waves. Because lensing imprints growth of structure in the late universe on the CMB, measurements of CMB lensing will constrain parameters to which the CMB would not otherwise be sensitive, such as neutrino mass. If the instrumental noise is sufficiently small (
Axionic dark energy and a composite QCD axion

description: We discuss the idea that the model-independent (MI) axion of string theory is the source of quintessential dark energy. The scenario is completed with a composite QCD axion from hidden sector squark condensation that could serve as dark matter candidate. The mechanism relies on the fact that the hidden sector anomaly contribution to the composite axion is much smaller than the QCD anomaly term. This intuitively surprising scenario is based on the fact that below the hidden sector scale $Λ_h$ there are many light hidden sector quarks. Simply, by counting engineering dimensions the hidden sector instanton potential can be made negligible compared to the QCD anomaly term.

description: Forecasting has become increasingly essential to our understanding of the world. However, prediction of virus circulation and consequent health outcomes is an avenue that is yet to be fully explored. This thesis describes the creation and establishment of a novel platform, Snotwatch, which relates virus circulation to seven paediatric diseases in both time and space. With Snotwatch, historical data is analysed on a large scale and at a granular level, laying the foundation for future prediction of health outcomes for a specific population, time frame and location. This in turn can drive public health action, clinician response, and community behaviour.

description: Using nonequilibrium molecular-dynamics simulations, we study the temperature dependence of the negative differential thermal resistance that appears in two-segment Frenkel-Kontorova lattices. We apply the theoretical method based on Landauer equation to obtain the relationship between the heat current and the temperature, which states a fundamental interpretation about the underlying physical mechanism of the negative differential thermal resistance. The temperature profiles and transport coefficients are demonstrated to explain the crossover from diffusive to ballistic transport. The finite-size effect is also discussed.

description: A Douglas DC-2 aircraft, NC 13725, owned by Transcontinental and Western Air, Inc., was extensively damaged in an accident which occurred on December 7, 1940, about 8:50 p.m., approximately seven miles north-north-west of the Greensburg Airport, Greensburg, Pennsylvania. The aircraft was equipped with two Wright cyclone engine, Model SGR-1820 F3. Captain Jones Y. Polizzi, in command of the flight, held an airline transport certificate with A Class 4M Land rating. He had flown approximately 2513 hours, 118.43 of which had been on Douglas DC-2 equipment as captain and 536:42 of which had been on that equipment as co-pilot. He had been employed by TWA since July 17, 1938. First Officer A. V. Dunlop held a commercial pilot certificate with Class 25 Land and Instrument ratings. He had 1225 hours flying time, 475 hours of which had been as co-pilot with TWA. The only other occupants of the plane were B C. Anderson, a passenger, and the Hostess, Kise Kay. No injuries were sustained-by any of the four occupants.

description: In the fluorescence light of a single atom, the probability for emission of a photon with certain polarization depends on the polarization of the photon emitted immediately before it. Here correlations of such kind are investigated with a single trapped calcium ion by means of second order correlation functions. A theoretical model is developed and fitted to the experimental data, which show 91% probability for the emission of polarization-correlated photon pairs within 24 ns.

description: Worldwide over 15 million infants are born prematurely each year. Despite significant improvements in infant survival rates, complications from preterm birth remain the leading cause of neonatal death. This thesis examined the immune and coagulation systems of preterm infants to better understand the mechanisms underpinning diseases associated with prematurity. Of note, we demonstrated that intra-uterine inflammation was associated with an altered, Type-2 skewed, immune response in preterm infants. Importantly, we also discovered that in preterm infants the coagulation system matures in distinct patterns; and preterm birth is not associated with a clear-cut ‘deficiency’ in the coagulation system as once thought.
The diverse X-ray properties of four truly isolated elliptical galaxies: NGC 2954, NGC 6172, NGC 7052, and NGC 7785

description: We investigate the X-ray properties of four isolated elliptical galaxies, selected from the Updated Zwicky Catalog according to strict isolation criteria. Isolated galaxies are not influenced by the group/cluster environment, and their X-ray emission can be studied independently of the often overwhelming contribution of the hot intergalactic medium. They are therefore suited to studying the X-ray characteristics relative to their intrinsic properties. We analyzed our own XMM-Newton and archival Chandra data in detail for three objects, and derived, when possible, the spatial and spectral characteristics of each source. An upper limit for the fourth one was obtained from archival ASCA data. We compared their characteristics with those of other 23 isolated objects for which X-ray and optical data are available in the literature. We explored possible theoretical explanations to interpret our results. In spite of our attempt to select very homogeneous objects, both in terms of optical properties and environmental characteristics, we find a wide range in X-ray luminosities and LX/LB ratios for the four objects: two of them show a hot gaseous halo, whereas no gas is detected in the other two, to a factor >10 in luminosity. In fact, we find a large spread in the LX/LB for all galaxies considered, suggesting that the presence of hot gas is not easily related to the optical luminosity or to the mass, even in isolated systems. Younger objects tend to be less luminous in X-rays than older systems. However, it appears that older objects could span a wide range in luminosities.

description: We demonstrate purely resonant continuous-wave optical laser excitation to coherently prepare an excitonic state of a single semiconductor quantum dot (QDs) inside a high quality pillar microcavity. As a direct proof of QD resonance fluorescence, the evolution from a single emission line to the characteristic Mollow triplet10 is observed under increasing pump power. By controlled utilization of weak coupling between the emitter and the fundamental cavity mode through Purcell-enhancement of the radiative decay, a strong suppression of pure dephasing is achieved, which reflects in close to Fourier transform-limited and highly indistinguishable photons with a visibility contrast of 90%. Our experiments reveal the model-like character of the coupled QD-microcavity system as a promising source for the generation of ideal photons at the quantum limit. From a technological perspective, the vertical cavity symmetry -- with optional dynamic tunability -- provides strongly directed light emission which appears very desirable for future integrated emitter devices.

description: Taust ja eesmärgid. Kõhuseina songade plastikaks kasutatavat võõrmaterjali on seostatud tugeva võõrkehareaktsiooni tekkega, mille tulemuseks võib olla pidev düskomfort ja elukvaliteeti oluliselt häiriv krooniline valu. Uuringu eesmärgiks oli hinnata kroonilise valu, võõrkehatunde ja retsidiivide esinemist armisonga alloplastika järel ning alloplastika mõju patsientide elukvaliteedile.

Metoodika. Kesklõike armisongaga patsientidele tehtud alloplastika järgsel kontrollil mõõdeti valu esinemist erinevate tegevuste juures visuaalanaloogskaalal ja hinnati võõrkehatunde esinemist. Elukvaliteedi hindamiseks kasutati küsimustikku SF36. Kõik patsiendid labisid kliinilise uurimise võimaliku retsidiivi suhtes.
 Tulemused. 6. postoperatiivsel kuul esines kroonilist valu 32,5%-l ja 3. postoperatiivsel aastal 27,9%-l patsientidest. Võõrkehatunne esines 6. postoperatiivsel kuul 25%-l ja 3. postoperatiivsel aastal 25,6%-l uuritutest. Elukvaliteedi erinevate valdkondade keskmised skoorid paranesid oluliselt 6. postoperatiivseks kuuks. 3. postoperatiivseks aastaks oli retsidiive 6,5%.
 Kokkuvõte. Krooniline valu ja võõrkehatunne on alloplastika järel sagedased probleemid. Arvestades väikest retsidiivide esinemist, on onlay-alloplastika hea operatsioonimeetod kesklõike armisonga likvideerimiseks. Elukvaliteedi oluline paranemine pärast  operatsiooni näitab, et sümptomaatiliste songade puhul tuleks plaanilist kirurgilist ravi rakendada esimesel võimalusel.

A stochastic optimal velocity model and its long-lived metastability

description: In this paper, we propose a stochastic cellular automaton model of traffic flow extending two exactly solvable stochastic models, i.e., the asymmetric simple exclusion process and the zero range process. Moreover it is regarded as a stochastic extension of the optimal velocity model. In the fundamental diagram (flux-density diagram), our model exhibits several regions of density where more than one stable state coexists at the same density in spite of the stochastic nature of its dynamical rule. Moreover, we observe that two long-lived metastable states appear for a transitional period, and that the dynamical phase transition from a metastable state to another metastable/stable state occurs sharply and spontaneously.

description: Ravimite uurimistöös on viimase paarikümne aastaga sünteesitud hulgaliselt uusi toimeainete kandidaatmolekule, mille toime on varasematest oluliselt tõhusam, kuid millest on siiski keeruline toota suu kaudu manustatavaid ravimivorme. Niisuguste uute ravimpreparaatide arendamise teeb iseäranis keeruliseks asjaolu, et lisaks suukaudsetele ravimivormidele, mille toimeaine vabaneb tavapäraselt, soovitakse järjest rohkem turule tuua toimeaine modifitseeritud vabanemisega (eelkõige toimeainet prolongeeritult vabastavaid ja käärsoolespetsiifilisi) suukaudseid ravimipreparaate.

description: Joodi sisaldava kontrastaine kasutamine meditsiinis on oma olemuselt vastuoluline. Olles asendamatu mitmetes olulistes diagnostika- ja raviprotseduurides, on sel ka palju organismi kahjustavaid toimeid. Tähelepanuväärseim kontrastaine parenteraalsest manustamisest tingitud tüsistus on äge neerukahjustus ehk kontrastainest põhjustatud neerukahjustus (KIN). Ägeda neerupuudulikkuse sagedase põhjusena on KIN juba aastakümneid olnud iatrogeenne tüsistus, mis võib ohustada ka normaalse neerufunktsiooniga patsiente. Tüsistuse täpsed patofüsioloogilised mehhanismid ei ole paljuski veel selged. Mõjukaimateks riskiteguriteks peetakse kroonilist neerupuudulikkust ja diabeeti, tekkeriski suurendavad ka hüpovoleemia, krooniline südamepuudulikkus, aneemia ja nefrotoksiliste ravimite tarvitamine. Ainsaks ennetuse tõenduspõhiseks strateegiaks on seni peetud patsiendi protseduurieelset hüdratsiooni. Viimase aastakümne jooksul on esile kerkinud mitmed uued KINi biomarkerid, mis võivad tulevikus ägeda neerukahjustuse varajases diagnostikas mängida asendamatut rolli. Artikli eesmärgiks on anda üldine ülevaade selle levinud tüsistuse patofüsioloogiast ja diagnostikast.

Probing the infrared quark mass from highly excited baryons

description: We argue that three-quark excited states naturally group into quartets, split into two parity doublets, and that the mass splittings between these parity partners decrease higher up in the baryon spectrum. This decreasing mass difference can be used to probe the running quark mass in the mid-infrared power-law regime. A measurement of masses of high-partial wave Delta* resonances should be sufficient to unambiguously establish the approximate degeneracy. We test this concept with the first computation of excited high-j baryon masses in a chirally invariant quark model.

description: Adenotonsillectomy, the surgery to remove your tonsils and adenoids, is one of the most common procedures performed in children. Despite this, there is little information about how this surgery is being delivered to and accessed by children. This thesis examined the epidemiology of adenotonsillectomy in children in Victoria, Australia and highlights sociodemographic and geographic variation in surgery rates, increasing surgical costs, and the risk factors for revisit to hospital after surgery due to complications. The findings from this body of work will improve outcomes for these children, providing a focus for improvement in the provision of a common procedure.
The fermi surface of copper by positron annihilation
Creators: name: Petijevich, Peter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A study of the Fermi surface of copper at room temperature has been made by means of a positron annihilation technique. A positron active copper single crystal was placed midway between two “point" scintillation counters operated in time coincidence. The coincidence count rate was measured for various crystal orientations and the count rate interpreted as a measure of the diameter of the Fermi surface. The experiment yields a Fermi surface that is spherical in k-space except for protrusions in the {111} directions which are estimated to subtend an angle of about 20° at k = 0. Within experimental error the results are consistent with those obtained by other methods near 0° K.

description: Pauses in breathing that occur commonly during sleep in children can be detrimental to the developing brain and other body systems. A better understanding of the mechanisms behind these sleep-related pauses in breathing is needed to improve their detection and treatment. This thesis examines the role of one such mechanism, instability in the feedback loop that controls breathing, in relation to two types of breathing pauses that occur during sleep in three different populations of children. The findings from this thesis will help clarify the role of this mechanism in children and help develop more targeted treatment options.
