Position-weighted template matching for measuring in-plane dynamics of microdevices
Creators: name: Peng, Cheng
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The measurement of in-plane dynamics of microdevices is crucial to analyzing their dynamic characteristics under certain excitations. It has become more and more important to enable precise measurements and visual means to characterize dynamic microstructures, as the designs of moving micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) are rapidly becoming more and more complex. And the visualization and measurement of the dynamics of MEMS structures are of considerable significance to the development of more effective and advanced microdevices. This thesis investigates the problem of visualizing, measuring and analyzing the in-plane dynamics of microdevices. We propose a novel object position tracking algorithm, called position-weighted template matching, improving the traditional template matching technique. The newly proposed algorithm effectively addresses the position "jump" problem that typically happens for object tracking in planar microdevices, where similar sub-patterns may exist in a single structure. We have incorporated the parabola fitting interpolation technique into our algorithm to achieve a higher, sub-pixel resolution level. We have implemented our proposed methods into a software module, associated with a LabVIEW Graphical User Interface (GUI). Several comparative experiments were carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm. In addition, the procedure was also used for performing a system identification on a fabricated MEMS resonator. Our implemented LabVIEW GUI can be potentially interfaced with low-cost hardware to enable visualization and measurement of in-plane motion of microdevices.
title: An evaluation of the effectiveness of Community-based Direct Observation of Treatment (CDOT) for tuberculosis compared to Health-Centre Direct Observation of Treatment (HC-DOT) in Cambodia

description: Introduction: Cambodia suffers very high rates of tuberculosis (TB). In 1994, Hospital Direct Observed Treatment (DOT), as recommended by WHO, was introduced. In 2002 ambulatory or health center DOT (HC-DOT) was implemented, requiring patients to come to the HC to take medicine with HC staff during the intensive phase. In 2005, community-based DOT (CDOT), using health volunteers in their own community, was implemented in some areas. This study compares CDOT and HC-DOT in terms of treatment success, case notification and acceptability. Methods: This thesis includes a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing CDOT to HC-DOT and Family-DOT; a controlled before-after quantitative study of the introduction of CDOT (1067 participants in 48 HCs with all TB forms were surveyed at the baseline in 2002/2003, as were 1297 in 2006/2007 two years after its introduction); and a qualitative study assessing its strengths, weaknesses and acceptability to HC staff, patients and CDOT watchers. Results: The meta-analysis from the systematic review shows that CDOT was at least as effective as HC-DOT (RR=1.05, Cl: 1.01-1.10), and treatment of smear-positive patients treated by CDOT is clearly better than for family-DOT (OR=1.33, Cl: 1.20-1.48) The quantitative study shows that in Cambodia the treatment success rates of patients treated with CDOT and HC-DOT are similar (OR=1.26, 95% Cl: 0.56-2.82). In the CDOT areas, the death rate among all TB patients was significantly reduced after its implementation (OR=0.37, 95%CI: 0.15-0.92) Most participants in the qualitative study felt CDOT was helpful particularly for very sick patients, and because it reduced travel costs and allowed patients to continue working. There was significant involvement of family members in both approaches. Conclusion: CDOT is as effective as HC-DOT for treatment success and case finding. Both approaches are well accepted. There remain problems which need to be addressed in order to improve outcomes

How do teachers construct an understanding of teaching?
Creators: name: Skipper, Peter Gordon
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This mixed methods study examined the teaching perspectives of 14 teachers and how they constructed their understanding of teaching. During the 2012-2013 school year interviews and an online survey were administered to these 14 teachers employed in two school districts and one private school in British Columbia. The teachers varied in terms of gender, years of experience and levels of grades taught. The study was conducted in two phases: a Teaching Perspectives Inventory (TPI) survey was followed by interviews. The TPI results described the dominant teaching perspectives of each teacher as transmission, apprenticeship, developmental, nurturing or social reform. The interview data then helped explore teachers' personal, educational and teaching experiences and the way they shaped those dominant teaching perspectives. The research was conceptualized and guided by a constructivist approach. Social reality is created by individuals to explain their experiences and is influenced by what an individual brings to such experiences. Conceptual lenses interpret what you see. The study was framed by the dimensions of examining teaching as a process of expertise, of interdependence, judgment and the self-expression needs of teachers. Study findings highlighted the multifaceted problem solving contextual nature of teaching in shaping understanding as an improvisational experience towards ideals that may change over time. Such experiences ultimately favored collegially centered relationships with co-constructed learning support opportunities with other trusted educators. The identity or understanding of what is good teaching is not fixed over time and developing awareness is a matter of reflexive practice and accumulating experience. Teaching is not simple acts of productivity but productive acts of thinking to celebrate both emotional and intellectual ends.

description: In contrast to SrFe2As2, where only the iron possesses a magnetic moment, in EuFe2As2 an additional large, local magnetic moment is carried by Eu2+. Like SrFe2As2, EuFe2As2 exhibits a spin-density wave transition at high temperatures, but in addition the magnetic moments of the Eu2+ order at around 20 K. The interplay of pressure-induced superconductivity and the Eu2+ order leads to a behavior which is reminiscent of re-entrant superconductivity as it was observed, for example, in the ternary Chevrel phases or in the rare-earth nickel borocarbides. Here, we study the delicate interplay of the ordering of the Eu2+ moments and superconductivity in EuFe1.9Co0.1As2, where application of external pressure makes it possible to sensitively tune the ratio of the magnetic (T_C) and the superconducting (T_{c,onset}) critical temperatures. We find that superconductivity disappears once T_C > T_{c,onset}.

description: Validation is one of the software engineering disciplines that help build quality into software. The major objective of software validation process is to determine that the software performs its intended functions correctly and provide information about its quality and reliability. This paper identifies general measures for the specific goals and its specific practices of Validation Process Area (PA) in Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). CMMI is developed by Software Engineering Institute (SEI). CMMI is a framework for improvement and assessment of a software development process. CMMI needs a measurement program that is practical. The method we used to define the measures is to apply the Goal Question Metrics (GQM) paradigm to the specific goals and its specific practices of Validation Process Area in CMMI.

"The @UFC and third wave feminism? Who woulda thought? : gender, fighters, and framing on Twitter
Creators: name: Quinney, Allyson
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Most professional sports, such as hockey, tennis, and basketball, separate men’s and women’s sports leagues. In 2013, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) disrupted this pattern by showcasing its first women’s mixed martial arts (MMA) fight in a once male-only fight league. While the UFC’s inclusion of female fighters is a step forward for gender equality, the change does not come without issues. This essay focuses on the framing of female UFC fighters on Twitter over a four year period. Through an intersectional feminist analysis, it examines how Twitter users frame female fighters’ bodies in relation to gender, race, class, and sexuality. It argues that there is an imbalance in attention paid to female fighters in regards to gender, race, class, and sexuality, and this constructs contradictory messaging about feminism, female fighters’ bodies, and the UFC on Twitter.

description: RPdBi (R = Er, Ho, Gd, Dy, Y, Nd) compounds were studied by means of x-ray diffraction, magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, magnetoresistivity, thermoelectric power and Hall effect measurements, performed in the temperature range 1.5-300 K and in magnetic fields up to 12 T. These ternaries, except diamagnetic YPdBi, exhibit localized magnetism of $R^{3+}$ ions, and order antiferromagnetically at low temperatures ($T_{N}$ = 2-13 K). The transport measurements revealed behavior characteristic of semimetals or narrow-band semiconductors. Both, electrons and holes contribute to the conductivity with dominant role of p-type carriers. The Hall effect of ErPdBi is strongly temperature and magnetic field dependent, reflecting complex character of the underlying electronic structures with multiple electron and hole bands. RPdBi, and especially DyPdBi, exhibit very good thermoelectric properties with a power factor coefficient $PF$ ranging from 6 to 20 $μ$Wcm$^{-1}$K$^{-2}$.

Optical sensors for adjusting N fertilization

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021
Subjects: SolACEPA

description: Problem: Application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer in excess of crop requirements is a common practice in agriculture, to ensure maximum production. However, this usually incurs an additional cost to farmers and increases environmental risk due to N losses. Solution: Optical sensors can detect the nutritional status of crops before serious nutrient deficiencies become a growth limitation and be used to adjust N fertilizer rate and timing to meet crop requirements. This method has been developed for several crops (e.g., wheat, maize and potato) and under various environmental conditions. Optical sensors are available to buy or rent for carrying out measurements (Figure 1), although this is an additional cost for the farmer, in the long-term, they will benefit financially for saving N fertilizer costs. To mitigate varietal and environmental effects, it is advisable to have a reference band in the field with the recommended N rate. This will require an additional N fertilizer application to apply the recommended rate.

description: Low-frequency Alfven-wave turbulence causes ion trajectories to become chaotic, or "stochastic," when the turbulence amplitude is sufficiently large. Stochastic orbits enable ions to absorb energy from the turbulence, increasing the perpendicular ion temperature even when the fluctuation frequencies are too small for a cyclotron resonance to occur. In this paper, an analytic expression for the stochastic heating rate is used in conjunction with an observationally constrained turbulence model to obtain an analytic formula for the perpendicular ion temperature as a function of heliocentric distance r, ion mass, and ion charge in coronal holes for values of r between 2 and 15 solar radii (Rs). The resulting temperature profiles provide a good fit to observations of protons and OVI ions at 2Rs < r < 3Rs from the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS). Stochastic heating also offers a natural explanation for several detailed features of the UVCS observations, including the preferential and anisotropic heating of minor ions, the rapid radial increase in the OVI temperature between 1.6Rs and 1.9Rs, and the abrupt flattening of the OVI temperature profile as r increases above 1.9Rs.

The outer space future of blackness and indigeneity in Midnight Robber and The Moons of Palmares
Creators: name: Cornum, Lindsey Catherine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This thesis explores ways in which Afrofuturist and Indigenous Futurist works complicate and trouble what constitutes Indigeneity in the Americas and specifically how that Indigeneity is posed in relation to Blackness and the Black diaspora. Nalo Hopkinson’s Midnight Robber and Zainab Amadahy’s The Moons of Palmares are two texts that represent Blackness and Indigeneity in outer space settings creatively constructed from earthly histories of settler colonialism and the trans-Atlantic slave trade. By demonstrating the complex ways in which these violent processes have created the material, social and political reality of the Americas, both texts represent peoples’ attempts to create belonging far from their ancestral lands and/or in tension with other peoples. I pose sovereignty and labour as two of the modalities through which these attempts at belonging are made, noting the limitations of both these discourses and how they have been mobilized. Overall, this thesis contributes to a discussion between and across the disciplines of Black and Indigenous studies in order to better understand global systems of oppression and imagine future space-times free from the constricting categorizations imposed under settler colonialism and slavery.

description: Abstract:
This map is not intended to be used for selecting individual sites. Its purpose is to inform land-use planners, government officials, and the public in a general way about geologic bedrock conditions that affect the selection of sites for various purposes. The properties of thick soils may supercede those of the underlying bedrock and should be considered on a site-to-site basis. At any site, it is important to understand the characteristics of both the soils and the underlying rock.

The general formulations developed by Chirikov is applied to the Nesvorný-Morbidelli analytic model of three-body (three-orbit) mean-motion resonances (Jupiter-Saturn-asteroid system). In particular, we investigate the diffusion \emph{along} and \emph{across} the separatrices of the (5,-2,-2) resonance of the (490) Veritas asteroidal family and their relationship to diffusion in semi-major axis and eccentricity. The estimations of diffusion were obtained using the Melnikov integral, a Hadjidemetriou-type sympletic map and numerical integrations for times up to $10^{8}$ years.

Image-guided video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) excision of small peripheral pulmonary nodules (SPPN) in patients with previous extra-thoracic malignancies
Creators: name: Almousa, Omamah H,
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of preoperative CT-guided microcoil localization (CTML) followed by fluoroscopy guided VATS resection in the diagnosis and management of SPPN in patients with extra-thoracic malignancies. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data between August 2003 and September 2013. Fifty patients underwent preoperative localization of undiagnosed SPPN using percutaneously placed CT-guided platinum microcoils (CTML). Coils were placed with the distal end deep to the nodule and the superficial end coiled on the visceral pleural surface. Nodules were removed by VATS wedge excision using endostapler with visualization by intraoperative fluoroscopy and VATS. Results: A total of 50 patients with a cumulative history of 14 different extra-thoracic cancers (57% female, mean age 62 years) had 55 nodules resected (mean size = 12.11mm, depth from visceral pleura = 22.07 mm) using CTML and fluoroscopic guided VATS wedge excision. The previously treated extra-thoracic tumor sites were colorectal (16), breast (9), urogenital (9), sarcoma (5), melanoma (3), lymphoma (3), thyroid (3), gastro esophageal (2), others (3). Nodule histology showed metastasis (25/50 patients), benign (11/50) and (15/50) early stage primary lung cancer. On logistic regression analysis, lung nodules in smokers were found 6 times more likely to represent primary lung cancer than metastasis (p 0.009). CTML procedure was successful in all patients with a mean time of 31.5 minutes and allowed successful diagnostic VATS wedge resection in all cases with no major complications. The mean time of VATS and fluoroscopy were 26.68 minutes and 1.35 minutes, respectively. After a follow up period of 35 months, all patients were alive and none of the patients had local recurrence of disease. Conclusions: Pre-operative localization of small peripheral pulmonary nodules using percutaneous CT-guided microcoil localization followed by fluoroscopic guided VATS resection was effective in achieving early definitive diagnosis, and changed the management and improved the prognosis in 50% of patients with presumed metastasis with minimal morbidity. The 20% of patients with benign disease required no further therapy while the 30% of patients with early stage primary lung cancer underwent curative surgical resection.

The essential ingredient in Joyce's construction is a Calabi-Yau 4-orbifold with particular singularities admitting an antiholomorphic involution, which fixes the singularities. We search the class of well-formed quasismooth hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces for suitable Calabi-Yau 4-orbifolds. We find that different hypersurfaces within the same family of Calabi-Yau 4-orbifolds may result in different Spin(7)-manifolds.

Physical activity to improve health and reduce chronic disease risk in female night shift workers
Creators: name: Neil-Sztramko, Sarah
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: There is growing evidence that shift workers are at increased risk of cancer and a number of chronic diseases. As the prevalence of shift work is unlikely to decrease, an understanding of the factors that contribute to, and strategies that can be used to mitigate this risk are needed. Physical activity is known to improve health, and reduce chronic disease risk. However, evidence suggests that women shift workers may be less likely than other women to be sufficiently physically active. This dissertation aims to examine the effect that physical activity may have on improving health and reducing breast cancer risk in shift workers, by employing a variety of research methodologies. The first study is a systematic review of the literature on interventions aimed at improving the health of shift workers. This was conducted to understand what strategies have been most effective, as well as to identify gaps in the literature. The second study used cross- sectional data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey to understand patterns of physical activity and sedentary time in shift workers compared to day workers, as well as objective measures of physical fitness and obesity. The third and fourth studies aimed to understand women shift workers’ perspectives on physical activity, particularly barriers to and preferences for physical activity programming, using quantitative and qualitative research methods respectively. Findings from these four studies led to the development of a distance-based physical activity intervention, consisting of behavioural counselling sessions, and use of an activity tracker to encourage participants to meet Canada’s physical activity guidelines of 150 minutes per week of moderate-vigorous physical activity. This intervention was found to be feasible to implement in women shift workers, with preliminary evidence of efficacy. In summary, these studies highlight the important role that physical activity may play in improving health and reducing breast cancer risk in women shift workers. The intervention developed lays the groundwork for future randomized-controlled trials to determine the magnitude of the effect that regular physical activity may have on shift workers’ risk of breast cancer and other chronic diseases.

description: We present 30 GHz Sunyaev Zel'dovich observations of a statistically complete sample of galaxy clusters with OCRA-p. The clusters are the 18 most X-ray luminous clusters at z > 0.2 in the ROSAT Brightest Cluster Sample. We correct for contaminant radio sources via supplementary observations with the Green Bank Telescope, also at 30 GHz, and remove a cluster that is contaminated by an unresolved X-ray source. All 17 remaining clusters have central SZ effects with Comptonisation parameter y_0 exceeding 1.9x10^-4, and 13 are detected at significance > 3 sigma. We use our data to examine scalings between y_0 and X-ray temperature, X-ray luminosity, and the X-ray mass proxy Y_X, and find good agreement with predictions from self-similar models of cluster formation, with an intrinsic scatter in y_0 of about 25%. We also comment on the success of the observations in the face of the contaminant source population, and the implications for upcoming cm-wave surveys.

Ontology Design
Data Curation

description: Materials are either enabler or bottleneck for the vast majority of technological innovations. The digitization of materials and processes is mandatory to create live production environments which represent physical entities and their aggregations and thus allow to represent, share, and understand materials changes. However, a common standard formalization for materials knowledge in the form of taxonomies, ontologies, or knowledge graphs has not been achieved yet. This paper sketches the efforts in modelling an ontology prototype to describe Materials Science experiments. It describes what is expected from the ontology by introducing a use case where a process chain driven by the ontology enables the curation and understanding of experiments.

Forest canopy gap size affects regeneration potential of interior Douglas-fir
Creators: name: Zustovic, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: There is growing concern about the long term productivity of forests in British Columbia due to changing climatic conditions. Interior Douglas-fir, an economically and culturally valuable conifer species, has recently had inconsistent regeneration success in the dry climatic regions of its distribution due to high summer soil surface temperatures, drought and growing season frost. Seeds of interior Douglas-fir germinate after mixed severity disturbances, but their survival appears to depend on the size of disturbance gaps, environmental resources and conditions, and colonization by mycorrhizal fungal symbionts. In two separate experiments that differed in climate (very dry, hot and dry, cool Interior Douglas-fir (IDF) subzones), and disturbance agent (natural and harvested), I sowed interior Douglas-fir seed into different sized forest canopy gaps. In both experiments, I tested the effects of canopy gap size and access to mycorrhizal networks on seedling performance (establishment, growth, water use efficiency, foliar nutrition, mycorrhizal colonization) and environmental resources and conditions (light, temperature, soil moisture). In the first experiment, regeneration failed in all canopy gap sizes and network treatments due to the harsh climatic conditions. There, neither protection in small gaps nor access to mycorrhizal networks were sufficient to create favourable regeneration conditions. In the second experiment, where the climate was cooler and wetter, seedling survival reached 74% in harvested gaps that were 80 – 300 m² in area, corresponding with greater soil moisture availability. Gaps of 20 – 80 m² were too small to initiate gap-phase regeneration, however, as indicated by low seed emergence and slow height growth rates. Gaps >300 m² resulted in high emergence but low survival (26 %) due to low soil moisture availability. Access to mycorrhizal networks had minor effects on mycorrhizal colonization and water use efficiency. My study shows that regeneration potential of interior Douglas-fir is severely limited by the very dry, hot climate in the low elevation IDF forests, but can be increased in wetter, cooler climates with forest harvesting practices that create moderately sized canopy gaps.

Economizing education : fee-paying ESL students in a public high school
Creators: name: Deschambault, Ryan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The reliance upon international students in Canadian education has resulted in a growth in research investigating students’ and institutions’ academic, social, cultural, pastoral, and (English) language learning experiences from a range of research perspectives and methodological approaches. Cumulatively these studies have resulted in more informed, better designed, and more reflexive programs and services. However, the majority of research has been conducted in tertiary settings, and thus overlooks the increasingly salient role of international students in K-12 public education in Canada, particularly in secondary schools. This year-long, ethnographic multiple case study examined the category of fee-paying international students (FIS) at the pre-tertiary level as it was realized across multiple actors, sites, and dimensions of the public education system. Broadly situated in a language socialization paradigm, the study first identifies how residency, funding, and English language function as key discursive resources in portrayals of FIS as they occur in K-12 education policy texts and in stakeholder accounts of FIS-related practices. The focus on policy and practices is followed by an analysis of four focal students’ experiences as FIS, which begins with a consideration of students’ homestay, socioeconomic, and (English) language circumstances outside of school. The analysis then concentrates on the most significant cultural process for FIS students’ school-based socialization: ‘getting out of ESL’. It highlights the situated, contingent nature of the process as it was constructed across school- and classroom-specific practices and interactions, but more consequentially, it describes how students’ economizing of the process of ‘getting out of ESL’ was central to their learning, to their varied trajectories, and thus was inextricably linked to the category of FIS. Through the multi-level account of the significance and impact of the category of FIS in a Canadian K-12 public educational setting, and the complexity that characterizes FIS socialization in that setting, the findings of the study underscore the fundamental, though often unacknowledged, relationship between the internationalization of K-12 public education and ESL services, teaching, and learning. In demonstrating how this relationship between FIS and ESL is relevant for students, teachers, and schools, the study identifies an important area for future research in applied linguistics.
The role of Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger isoform 5 (NHE5) in glioma

description: Up-regulation of the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) signalling cascades constitutes the basis of tumorigenesis. Signal termination that normally occurs through receptor degradation is disrupted in various cancers. Therefore, persistent receptor-mediated signal occurs through increased recycling and elevated surface expression of these receptors. Previous discoveries of endosomal pH modulators that promote tumour progression suggest the potential roles of acidic endosomal pH in receptor turnover from the endosomes and oncogenic signalling. In this thesis study, I showed that neuron-enriched Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger NHE5 plays an important role in trafficking of c-Met RTK in C6 glioma cells. NHE5 is predominantly expressed in recycling endosomes of C6 cells. By fluorescence ratiometric analysis, I showed that NHE5 depletion with short-hairpin RNA significantly increases pH of Tfn positive recycling endosomes, implicating a prominent role of NHE5 in endosomal acidification. Using cell surface biotinylation, I found that cell surface abundance of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor c-Met is significantly reduced in NHE5-deficient cells. Further analysis revealed that recycling circuitry is impaired and degradation of c-Met is enhanced by a previously uncharacterized, non-proteasomal degradation when NHE5 is depleted. Consequently, reduced expression of c-Met by NHE5 knockdown (KD) causes severe migratory defect and loss of cell polarity. I further demonstrated that disrupted phenotypes in NHE5-knockdown cells were restored by NHE5 complementation. Stable expression of shRNA-resistant human NHE5 into NHE5-knockdown cells acidifies endosomal pH, increases surface c-Met abundance, restores Rac1 activity, and enhances cell migration. In summary, this thesis study highlights critical role of endosomes pH in regulating receptor-mediated signalling through vesicular trafficking, and a potential role of NHE5 in promoting sustained signalling essential for the tumorigenicity of glioma.

description: It has long been appreciated that transport properties can control reaction kinetics. This effect can be characterized by the time it takes a diffusing molecule to reach a target -- the first-passage time (FPT). Although essential to quantify the kinetics of reactions on all time scales, determining the FPT distribution was deemed so far intractable. Here, we calculate analytically this FPT distribution and show that transport processes as various as regular diffusion, anomalous diffusion, diffusion in disordered media and in fractals fall into the same universality classes. Beyond this theoretical aspect, this result changes the views on standard reaction kinetics. More precisely, we argue that geometry can become a key parameter so far ignored in this context, and introduce the concept of "geometry-controlled kinetics". These findings could help understand the crucial role of spatial organization of genes in transcription kinetics, and more generally the impact of geometry on diffusion-limited reactions.
