description: [Introduction] This survey was undertaken as part or the program of geophysical work in the Los Angeles Basin sponsored by the Division of the Geological Sciences of the California Institute of Technology. Previous work has included a seismic survey and gravimetric studies, followed by the magnetic work conducted by Sidney Schafer in 1936.

In the survey described in this report measurements of the relative vertical intensity of the earth's magnetic field were made at more than two hundred stations in the western part of the Los Angeles Basin, in the vicinity of Inglewood and the Baldwin Hills. Askania vertical-component magnetometer number 92993 was used in the work. The locations of the stations occupied with the magnetometer are shown on the accompanying map. These stations were in general one-tenth mile apart and were located on traverse lines running in a northeast-southwesterly direction. The observed magnetic readings were corrected for the effects of temperature, diurnal variation and change in latitude and longitude as later described.

Median-Based Generation of Synthetic Speech Durations using a Non-Parametric Approach

description: This paper proposes a new approach to duration modelling for statistical parametric speech synthesis in which a recurrent statistical model is trained to output a phone transition probability at each timestep (acoustic frame). Unlike conventional approaches to duration modelling -- which assume that duration distributions have a particular form (e.g., a Gaussian) and use the mean of that distribution for synthesis -- our approach can in principle model any distribution supported on the non-negative integers. Generation from this model can be performed in many ways; here we consider output generation based on the median predicted duration. The median is more typical (more probable) than the conventional mean duration, is robust to training-data irregularities, and enables incremental generation. Furthermore, a frame-level approach to duration prediction is consistent with a longer-term goal of modelling durations and acoustic features together. Results indicate that the proposed method is competitive with baseline approaches in approximating the median duration of held-out natural speech.

description: The dilatometric properties of polymer films near and above their glass-transition temperatures were explored using capacitive high-frequency detection in temperature ramping as well as in harmonic temperature cycling experiments. The broad applicability of capacitive scanning dilatometry is demonstrated by the investigation of macromolecular systems of vastly different polarity such as polystyrene, polybutadiene, and polyvinylacetate. From temperature cycling experiments the real and imaginary parts of the frequency-dependent thermal-expansion coefficient are determined in the sub-Hz regime.

BSA -- Bi-Stiffness Actuation for optimally exploiting intrinsic compliance and inertial coupling effects in elastic joint robots

description: Compliance in actuation has been exploited to generate highly dynamic maneuvers such as throwing that take advantage of the potential energy stored in joint springs. However, the energy storage and release could not be well-timed yet. On the contrary, for multi-link systems, the natural system dynamics might even work against the actual goal. With the introduction of variable stiffness actuators, this problem has been partially addressed. With a suitable optimal control strategy, the approximate decoupling of the motor from the link can be achieved to maximize the energy transfer into the distal link prior to launch. However, such continuous stiffness variation is complex and typically leads to oscillatory swing-up motions instead of clear launch sequences. To circumvent this issue, we investigate decoupling for speed maximization with a dedicated novel actuator concept denoted Bi-Stiffness Actuation. With this, it is possible to fully decouple the link from the joint mechanism by a switch-and-hold clutch and simultaneously keep the elastic energy stored. We show that with this novel paradigm, it is not only possible to reach the same optimal performance as with power-equivalent variable stiffness actuation, but even directly control the energy transfer timing. This is a major step forward compared to previous optimal control approaches, which rely on optimizing the full time-series control input.

description: Exposure to microgravity leads to orthostatic intolerance in astronauts and differential vascular structural and functional adaptations have been implicated in its occurrence. The present study tended to clarify the characteristics of vascular inflammation and oxidative stress in hindlimb unweighting (HU) rat vasculature. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control (CON) and hindlimb unweighting (HU) groups. Three weeks later, immunohistochemistry was used to localize the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and laser scanning confocal microscope were used to detect superoxide production. Immunohistochemical results revealed positive staining of VCAM-1 on endothelial cells in HU rat basilar and carotid arteries compared with CON, but not in abdominal aorta and femoral arteries. Meanwhile, HU increased O2·- levels in all the layers of basilar and carotid arteries from HU rat but not in abdominal aorta and femoral arteries from HU rat. These data suggested that differential expression of VCAM-1 and O2- production were concomitant with the vascular adaptations to simulated microgravity and whether they participate in vascular structure and function remodeling merits further investigation.

description: Search & Destroy is an adventurous and tender coming of age short film that follows RAFAEL and his neighborhood squad members–CLAW and DONNIE–on the first day of summer. For the last 7 years, they have honored their first day of summer with an annual swim at the neighborhood pool (The Streak). But this year, Wes, the eldest squad member who is off to high school in the fall, is accused of ditching them. Despite Claw's assertive plea to go on without Wes, Rafael takes the boys on a search in the neighborhood, and risks crossing paths with the high school baseball team who they are also running from. This project is a thesis film for the M.F.A. program in Film & Media Production at The University of Texas at Austin, a highly selective graduate program that brings together talented storytellers from all over the world. Search & Destroy is also produced by Prelude Films. Partnering with an established production company was an intentional endeavor aimed to bridge the gap of student filmmaking and processes standardized at the industry level.

description: We revisit minimal supersymmetric SU(5) grand unification (GUT) models in which the soft supersymmetry-breaking parameters of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) are universal at some input scale, $M_{in}$, above the supersymmetric gauge coupling unification scale, $M_{GUT}$. As in the constrained MSSM (CMSSM), we assume that the scalar masses and gaugino masses have common values, $m_0$ and $m_{1/2}$ respectively, at $M_{in}$, as do the trilinear soft supersymmetry-breaking parameters $A_0$. Going beyond previous studies of such a super-GUT CMSSM scenario, we explore the constraints imposed by the lower limit on the proton lifetime and the LHC measurement of the Higgs mass, $m_h$. We find regions of $m_0$, $m_{1/2}$, $A_0$ and the parameters of the SU(5) superpotential that are compatible with these and other phenomenological constraints such as the density of cold dark matter, which we assume to be provided by the lightest neutralino. Typically, these allowed regions appear for $m_0$ and $m_{1/2}$ in the multi-TeV region, for suitable values of the unknown SU(5) GUT-scale phases and superpotential couplings, and with the ratio of supersymmetric Higgs vacuum expectation values $\tan β\lesssim 6$.

description: With a growing emphasis on sustainable planning, highway agencies aim to develop sustainable highway programs incorporating the three sustainability components: economics, environment, and equity. Thus, highway agencies must incorporate multiple objectives while developing transportation programs. Moreover, limited funding and a rapidly aging highway infrastructure network further hinder maintaining the road network in a functional state while meeting sustainability goals. Literature has extensively explored ways to solve this resource allocation problem for preparing highway maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) programs. However, these studies have mainly focused on economic and environmental objectives. The quantitative assessment and incorporation of social equity objectives are relatively new and limited. To better accommodate social equity goals, it is essential to assess the social equity level objectively. Moreover, exploring how social equity goals can be quantitatively incorporated into highway M&R programming is essential. Thus, this study aims to develop a framework to quantitatively assess and incorporate social equity goals in highway M&R programming. Firstly, the study proposes a quantitative approach to assess social equity in the road network. This is achieved by developing an assessment approach and exploring numerical measures to evaluate equity. Secondly, this study proposes a sustainable M&R resource allocation model that concurrently focuses on all three sustainability objectives. The multi-objective approach assists in exploring the relationships between the three fundamental pillars of sustainability. In addition to managing multiple objectives, the decision-makers must develop and implement transportation programs in a highly complex and dynamic fiscal environment. Hence, lastly, the study explores the performance of different social equity strategies (policies) to develop sustainable asset management plans in a fiscally constrained and dynamic environment. The formulations and measures proposed in this study expand the use of quantitative social equity metrics to assess needs and support decision-making. Additionally, the study encourages highway decision-makers to adopt a multi-objective approach to understand better the implications of their decisions on the economic, environmental, and social equity aspects. The case study findings indicate that the decision-makers can potentially adopt a suitable M&R treatment program that meets their social equity needs without significantly compromising on the economic or environmental objectives.

description: Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is an Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology capable of producing fully dense, high strength parts with complex geometries. However, it currently can only produce parts using a single material. Researchers are working to develop nozzle-based powder deposition mechanisms to enable multiple materials in SLM. This would allow for an added level of design complexity and the matching of material properties to the functional requirements of a part. Nozzle-based powder deposition, however, has several issues that need to be improved and scanning strategies for bonding the different materials together at interfaces need to be developed. Additionally, there is a need for characterization of fabricated multiple-material interfaces to better understand what is occurring during scanning across these boundaries. This dissertation first develops a powder deposition and leveling system used to fix the geometrical inaccuracy and material contamination issues from current iterations of multiple-material deposition systems. Full deposition of a multi-layer, multiple-material powder bed with minimal material contamination is demonstrated. Using the system’s newly established ability, scanning strategies and parameters are developed for fabricating copper-nickel multiple-material parts. Several different lasers are employed to understand the effects of laser power on the quality of bonding at the multiple-material interface. Fabricated parts are characterized using microscopic imaging and energy dispersive spectroscopy techniques to quantify part density, identify porosity formation, and detect if alloying occurred at the multiple-material interface. Large area alloying of copper and nickel is achieved, producing 99.5% dense multiple-material parts. Lastly, a high-level machine design for a next-generation multiple-material SLM machine is provided based on the findings and results of this dissertation’s work to enable and expand subsequent research in the future.

description: We consider the minimization of theta functions $θ\_Λ(α)=\sum\_{p\inΛ}e^{-πα|p|^2}$ amongst lattices $Λ\subset \mathbb R^d$, by reducing the dimension of the problem, following as a motivation the case $d=3$, where minimizers are supposed to be either the BCC or the FCC lattices. A first way to reduce dimension is by considering layered lattices, and minimize either among competitors presenting different sequences of repetitions of the layers, or among competitors presenting different shifts of the layers with respect to each other. The second case presents the problem of minimizing theta functions also on translated lattices, namely minimizing $(L,u)\mapsto θ\_{L+u}(α)$. Another way to reduce dimension is by considering lattices with a product structure or by successively minimizing over concentric layers. The first direction leads to the question of minimization amongst orthorhombic lattices, whereas the second is relevant for asymptotics questions, which we study in detail in two dimensions.

description: A neural network architecture is presented that exploits the multilevel properties of high-dimensional parameter-dependent partial differential equations, enabling an efficient approximation of parameter-to-solution maps, rivaling best-in-class methods such as low-rank tensor regression in terms of accuracy and complexity. The neural network is trained with data on adaptively refined finite element meshes, thus reducing data complexity significantly. Error control is achieved by using a reliable finite element a posteriori error estimator, which is also provided as input to the neural network. par The proposed U-Net architecture with CNN layers mimics a classical finite element multigrid algorithm. It can be shown that the CNN efficiently approximates all operations required by the solver, including the evaluation of the residual-based error estimator. In the CNN, a culling mask set-up according to the local corrections due to refinement on each mesh level reduces the overall complexity, allowing the network optimization with localized fine-scale finite element data. par A complete convergence and complexity analysis is carried out for the adaptive multilevel scheme, which differs in several aspects from previous non-adaptive multilevel CNN. Moreover, numerical experiments with common benchmark problems from Uncertainty Quantification illustrate the practical performance of the architecture.

description: Recent experimental studies have shown that traffic management systems are vulnerable to cyber-attacks on sensor data. This paper studies the vulnerability of fixed-time control of signalized intersections when sensors measuring traffic flow information are compromised and perturbed by an adversary. The problems are formulated by considering three malicious objectives: 1) worst-case network accumulation, which aims to destabilize the overall network as much as possible; 2) worst-case lane accumulation, which aims to cause worst-case accumulation on some target lanes; and 3) risk-averse target accumulation, which aims to reach a target accumulation by making the minimum perturbation to sensor data. The problems are solved using bilevel programming optimization methods. Finally, a case study of a real network is used to illustrate the results.

description: In this paper, a Kinect-based distributed and real-time motion capture system is developed. A trigonometric method is applied to calculate the relative position of Kinect v2 sensors with a calibration wand and register the sensors' positions automatically. By combining results from multiple sensors with a nonlinear least square method, the accuracy of the motion capture is optimized. Moreover, to exclude inaccurate results from sensors, a computational geometry is applied in the occlusion approach, which discovers occluded joint data. The synchronization approach is based on an NTP protocol that synchronizes the time between the clocks of a server and clients dynamically, ensuring that the proposed system is a real-time system. Experiments for validating the proposed system are conducted from the perspective of calibration, occlusion, accuracy, and efficiency. Furthermore, to demonstrate the practical performance of our system, a comparison of previously developed motion capture systems (the linear trilateration approach and the geometric trilateration approach) with the benchmark OptiTrack system is conducted, therein showing that the accuracy of our proposed system is $38.3\%$ and 24.1% better than the two aforementioned trilateration systems, respectively.

description: Proposer des séquences d'histoire en 2H en inscrivant les élèves dans une véritable démarche d'enquête vous parait trop ambitieux ? Les laisser interroger par eux-mêmes le passé pour développer leur raisonnement historien aussi ? Rassurez-vous, vous n'êtes pas les seuls ! Pour diverses raisons, un bon nombre d'enseignant.es ne proposent pas, ou très peu, de séquences d'histoire dans leurs classes enfantines. L'histoire est bien souvent enseignée au travers d'activités ritualisées, mais qu'en est-il du développement des concepts liés à la discipline ? Après avoir interrogé des enseignant.es et relevé la plupart de leurs motifs, de leurs craintes et de leurs envies, nous nous sommes penchées à travers ce travail de mémoire sur la conception d'une séquence d'enseignement qui tienne compte de ces informations et qui se veut être dynamique et motivante pour tous. Elle a pour ambition d'apprendre aux élèves à visualiser l'histoire comme une enquête, de raisonner comme des chercheurs en interrogeant les traces du passé et en les mettant en lien avec celles du temps présent. Nous avons tenté, pour la conception de cette séquence, de mettre au cœur de notre réflexion le recours à la manipulation d'objets tangibles. Il s'agit en effet, selon nous, d'un puissant "outil pédagogique" bénéfique, entre autres, au développement du raisonnement historien.

description: In response to the relative absence of contemporary Chinese women artists and their art in art historical discourses and in the art world, this study investigates the marginalization and symbolic annihilation of contemporary women artists and their art and the research conundrum on this neglected subject. This research suggests a new theoretical framework, sinofemcentrism, to facilitate the discussion and investigation of contemporary Chinese art by women, and examines sinofemcentrism’s manifestations in art by three contemporary Chinese female artists: Yu Hong, Cui Xiuwen, and Xiang Jing. Sinofemcentrism is designated to the possibilities of a Chinese-female-centered worldview emerged from a strong sense of agency, self-awareness, and consciousness concerning the world about Chinese women’s race, sex, and artistic ability. All three artists, though their mediums vary, are keen to depict female subjectivity through figurative representation. As a painter, Yu Hong is interested in the perceived minutiae of women’s lives against the grand narrative of Chinese history. Yu Hong’s female subjectivity centers on Chinese women and renders them individual players of the world, who are directly influenced by the history of China and the world. Cui Xiuwen (1967-2018) was a mixed media artist. Interested in Chinese women’s psyche and the social, cultural, and economical implications that contributed to the systemic exploitation of women, Cui Xiuwen’s figurative works since her 2000 video work Lady’s Room continued to show her concern about the sexual violence Chinese women and children endured, but her subjects were rendered gradually more passive, frail, and stationary. Keen to explore the complex internality of human nature, Xiang Jing’s sculptural depiction of the female body embraced signs of age, the diversity of body types, a wide range of emotions, and female intimacy, friendship, and solidarity. This thesis concludes that art by Yu Hong, Cui Xiuwen, and Xiang Jing reflects what I have chosen to call their sinofemcentric stance which is unique to their Chinese-female-centered worldview and personal and professional experience. It is argued that Sinofemcentrism is a suitable theoretical framework to facilitate art historical discourses on the works of Chinese women artists from China, the greater Sinophone areas, and in diaspora.

description: Three-dimensional (3D) technologies have been developing rapidly recent years, and have influenced industrial, medical, cultural, and many other fields. In this paper, we introduce an automatic 3D human head scanning-printing system, which provides a complete pipeline to scan, reconstruct, select, and finally print out physical 3D human heads. To enhance the accuracy of our system, we developed a consumer-grade composite sensor (including a gyroscope, an accelerometer, a digital compass, and a Kinect v2 depth sensor) as our sensing device. This sensing device is then mounted on a robot, which automatically rotates around the human subject with approximate 1-meter radius, to capture the full-view information. The data streams are further processed and fused into a 3D model of the subject using a tablet located on the robot. In addition, an automatic selection method, based on our specific system configurations, is proposed to select the head portion. We evaluated the accuracy of the proposed system by comparing our generated 3D head models, from both standard human head model and real human subjects, with the ones reconstructed from FastSCAN and Cyberware commercial laser scanning systems through computing and visualizing Hausdorff distances. Computational cost is also provided to further assess our proposed system.
