Material. Cranidium from Upper Naungkangyi Beds (Katian) at Insang, northern Shan State, Fig. 13.3 (Reed, 1906, pl. 5, fig. 26), GSI 8340.
Discussion. A single and diminutive cranidium from the northern part of the Shan State was fully described by Reed (1906) and is refigured here for reference. The assignment to Sphaerocoryphe is supported, although the material is inadequate for specific comparison. Generally similar internal moulds have been figured from other Upper Ordovician strata (e.g. Dean, 1971).

Development of advanced data mining algorithms for the analysis of directed networks
Creators: name: Tosyali, Ali

description: There are many systems which can be represented as a network, where the parts of the system are nodes and the connections between the parts are the edges. Researchers proposed numerous different network types such as internet networks, citation networks, and transportation networks. Also, numerous analysis tools have been introduced to investigate the structures and pattern of connections of networks. However, existing research is mostly focused on undirected and static networks and analysis of directed dynamic networks, especially citation networks, has received little attention from the researchers. In this dissertation, we present new methodologies for the analysis of directed networks. We first propose an anomaly (outlier) detection technique based on nonnegative matrix factorization for directed patent citation network (PCN). We have developed a clustering method based on NMF, and an anomaly score function that exploits the clustering result. The proposed outlier ranking method leverages the patent-level analysis as well as group-level analysis in order to measure the graph-based outlierness of a patent. We validate our proposed anomaly ranking methods using small artificial datasets. We then conduct experiments using real-world patent citation network. Results reveal that the proposed outlier ranking and detection method outperforms existing approaches. Secondly, we present a regularized asymmetric nonnegative matrix factorization (RANMF) algorithm for clustering in directed networks. The proposed algorithm assumes that if two nodes are similar to each other in the original basis, their representatives in new basis should be close to each other. Therefore, similar nodes appear in the same cluster. The proposed algorithm is for clustering nodes in a given directed network under the guidance of prior similarity information of the network and SVD-based initialization. We also provide proof of the convergence of RANMF algorithm and real-world experiments to show its performance. The experiments reveal that RANMF algorithm is a better solution for clustering in directed networks compared to other clustering algorithms. Finally, we develop a time-aware ranking method for the identification of important and influential patents in dynamic patent citation network. While the existing ranking methods fail to distinguish the citing and cited patent for the importance of cited patent, the proposed ranking method successfully distinguish them by exploiting the time information of not only citing patent but also the time information of cited patent. We present the performance of our method on real-world patent citation data and compare it to other ranking metrics. The results reveal that our proposed method not only successfully rank the patents in importance but also successfully identifies the influential patents in a dynamic patent citation network.

Phylodynamic analyses reveal rapid evolution of rubella virus
Creators: name: Wain, Cody Andrew
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Rubella is an infection caused by rubella virus. Rubella virus belongs to the Togaviridae family and is a single stranded positive sense RNA virus of about 9,762 nucleotides. Rubella, once known as German Measles, causes an iconic red rash all over the body and the teratogenic congenital rubella syndrome in pregnant women. Due to Measles-Mumps-Rubella vaccination rates falling throughout the developed world and measles and mumps becoming resurgent, the evolution of rubella virus is important to study prior to its potential resurgence. The E1 gene of the rubella virus is responsible for interaction with the human immune system, and it is the antigen to which antibodies are formed. The evolutionary rate of E1 along with the full rubella genome was determined using phylodynamic analysis. Both the whole genome and the E1 gene were evolving in a clocklike manner, and the evolution of both were successfully analyzed with BEAST2 software. A difference between the best-fitting priors between the two datasets was the kind of molecular clock preferred: the whole genome was best fit by a relaxed molecular clock, while the E1 gene preferred the strict molecular clock. This difference had some impact on the results, with the estimated evolutionary rate for the E1 gene from the strict clock being lower than the whole genome, but still within the 95% highest posterior density range at 1.08 x 10-3 substitutions per site per year (ssy) while the whole genome had an evolutionary rate of 1.60 x 10-3 ssy with a 95% Highest Posterior Density (HPD) of 1.06 x 10-3 to 2.18 x 10-3 ssy. Reconducting the E1 analysis with a relaxed molecular clock resulted in a similar evolutionary rate as the whole genome of 1.51 x 10-3 ssy with a 95% HPD of 1.23 x 10-3 to 1.80 x 10-3 ssy. This is one of the first cases where there was a statistically significant difference in substitution rate (non-overlapping HPDs) between analyses of the same dataset calculated with different clock priors. The relaxed clock estimates of nucleotide substitution rate are higher than has been estimated for rubella virus in the past and agrees with the more rapid rate of evolution seen in a single decade in China. These results suggest that rubella evolves faster than expected, though it is not undergoing substantial positive selection, and that choice of clock model is a more significant determinant of substitution rate than previously considered.

Regulation of renal organic anion transporters
Creators: name: Wang, Haoxun
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: Organic anion transporters (OATs) are a group of membrane proteins that are mainly involved in the body disposition of organic anionic molecules or zwitterions, including a diverse array of clinical therapeutics, environmental toxins, and endogenous molecules. OATs are present in multiple tissues. OATs in the kidney is responsible for removing various organic anion molecules from blood to proximal tubule lumen for subsequent elimination through urine. The regulation of OATs can be classified into multiple levels such as transcriptional regulation, translational regulation, and post-translational regulation. My thesis work focuses on the investigation of post-translational modification/regulation of OATs by ubiquitination and SUMOylation as well as their upstream signaling pathways. This thesis consists of 8 chapters. Chapter 1 gives an overview on the general properties of OATs. Chapters 2-6 describe our investigation on the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of OATs by post-translational modification ubiquitination and SUMOylation as well as their upstream signaling pathways including proteins kinases (sgks and PKA) and hormones (dexamethasone and insulin).

Characterization of micro-textured cutting tool surfaces for machining applications
Creators: name: Patel, Kaushalendra

description: For high productivity, sustainable cutting tools with longer tool life and higher durability, which can withstand high temperature and pressure rises during high cutting speeds, are required in difficult-to-cut machining operations in aerospace, automotive, naval, nuclear and other industries. Currently, cutting coolants and lubricants (lubricoolants) are widely used in industry for thermal and tribological management which provide negative impacts on sustainable environment. The use of lubricoolants has to be reduced or totally eliminated through dry machining, decreasing the environmental hazard and manufacturing cost for improved sustainability. Micro-textured cutting tools can play an important role to achieve this goal. There are several distinct advantages offered by micro-textures applied to cutting tool surfaces to reduce cutting forces, friction, wear and material adherence. However, it is not clear what the optimum pattern and dimensions of these micro-micro-textures should be to obtain minimum forces and wear when using textured cutting tool surfaces in machining processes.The current work is aimed at investigating the effect of micro-textured insert designs on the cutting forces, but also the effect of micro-groove dimension on the tool wear with experiments. It was expected that the proposed cutting tool surfaces will improve the tribological performance at tool and workpiece interfaces and reduce cutting forces, stresses, and temperatures, and consequently lower usage of energy, coolants, and lubricants in machining of difficult-to-cut materials.In this research, we investigated the effect of various micro-textured insert designs on the cutting forces and tool wear with experiments in machining titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V and alloy steel 4340. It was found that micro-texture parameters affect cutting forces and tool wear. Cutting forces are measured by using force dynamometers and the surface topography of the micro-textured tool surfaces were inspected using optical microscopy and focus variation techniques. Micro-texture parameters, groove depth, width, and spacing, are found to be influential on the amount of material smearing into grooves and adhering on the tool surface while reducing thrust forces due to lower contact. Multi-objective optimization studies were conducted to find cutting conditions and micro-groove parameters in machining steel alloy 4340 that minimizes cutting forces and wear. Therefore, the micro-texture design on the tool surfaces can be optimized to obtain lowered cutting forces, improved tool wear, and minimal material adherence. Micro-textured cutting tool parameters as decision variables can be optimized using appropriate optimization strategy that can be obtained from the solution sets. These micro-textures will enable users to practice environmentally sustainable machining through a better application of modern methods such as minimum quantity lubrication, near- dry cutting, cryogenic machining, and solid lubricants.

Nanoindentation investigation in polymers with cylindrical curvature and planar surface area for enhanced mechanical characterization
Creators: name: Patel, Hinal R.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: Investigation of the transverse properties in anisotropic Kevlar® fibers are conducted via instrumented indentation methods. The K29, KM2, and K119 fibers are comprised of a skin and core with distinct indentation moduli. Indentations performed at different loads contributed ample data to obtain depth dependent indentation moduli. Indentation moduli are characterized at a depth 10% of fiber diameter to avoid effects from the substrate and additionally at the skin level, 2-13%, 7-13%, and 25-40% of fiber diameter. To account for the curvature of the single fiber, a previously developed modified curved area function was incorporated in comparison to the common flat area function extracted from the Oliver-Pharr method. The indentation moduli derived from the flat area function were undervalued than ones determined from the modified curved area function. The transverse indentation moduli of single Kevlar fibers varied at depths across their diameters. As expected from material composition, the KM2 fiber possessed the largest indentation moduli of 5.28 GPa, whereas the K119 fiber exhibited the lowest at 2.21 GPa.Two polymers of unique compositions, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and shape memory polymer (SMP), are also examined for their frequency and depth dependent mechanical properties via single and multiple cycle loading. PDMS is a hydrophobic elastomer and exhibits greater elasticity than the hydrophilic SMP, but similarities in material response were distinguished. During single cycle nanoindentation, both planar polymers exhibited smoother loading curves at the lowest frequency as opposed to the higher frequencies. At 3mN load-controlled tests, PDMS and SMP had an average indentation modulus value of 3.94 ± 0.06 MPa and 2.07 ± 0.08 GPa, respectively. Their indentation moduli differed by a factor of 525, supporting the conclusion that PDMS is physically softer than the SMP. As loads and maximum depths increased, the mechanical properties decreased for both materials.To study periodic response behavior in both polymers, the frequencies for multiple cycle tests were varied at 1, 0.5, and 0.033 Hz for different cycles. During these small-scale fatigue tests on PDMS, 5 and 50 cycle experiments demonstrated a linear trend with a negative slope for indentation moduli, whereas 100 cycle experimental data conformed to power law curves. Contrarily, all cycles and frequencies tested on SMP followed power law curve fitting. As the frequencies decreased, the change in maximum depths increased along with a further depreciation of indentation modulus for both materials. The multiple cycle indentation tests confirmed the consistent trends identified in the single cycle indentations. Overall, the two polymers experienced comparable trends in mechanical properties despite their extensive disparity in chemical composition, indentation modulus, and hardness.

description: AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) has become an enabling tool in a wide range of areas ranging from biology, material sciences to other nanosciences and nanoengineering areas. However, currently AFM operation has been limited to a relatively small sample area (below around 0.1~mm by 0.1~mm) and 2-D samples only. On the contrary, froniter and emerging applications in areas such as biology demands and require an AFM capable of imaging and/or measuring properties of samples over a much larger range (in mm size or even larger), and on 3-dimensional samples such as 3-D organoid cell culture. This M.S. research work is focused on the creation of a multi-degree of freedom micro-manipulator for large-range, 3-dimensional operation of a sample on AFM. Particularly, the needs and constraints arising from integrating the AFM system to an inverted optical microscope for (optical-AFM) coordinated operation are accounted for and addressed in the design and fabrication of the manipulator. A robust stage with minimal noise and vibration needs to be designed to fulfill the goal of micro-manipulation with maximum possible accuracy. During this a '3-DOF RSR (Revolute-Spherical-Revolute) Parallel Delta manipulator' combined with '2-DOF RR (Revolute) Serial perpendicular axis manipulator', kinematic mechanisms are coupled together to achieve micro-manipulation. High accuracy with high dynamic characteristics of parallel manipulator provides precise positioning by translation motion and two revolute joints facilitates precise orientation by rotational motion. The decoupling of the translation motion from the rotational motion of the sample helps in making a system independent to other while allowing simultaneous operation. The use of small disk design for sample holder to rotate sample, minimizes the disturbances to the solution. Design, kinematic analysis, fabrication, motion simulation, and preliminary motion control in experiments for the independent and combined configuration are covered in this research work.
Coarse-grained modeling of interactions of nanoparticles with lipid membranes

description: Research of the mechanisms of interactions between nanoparticles (NPs) and lipid bilayers (LBs), which constitute the foundation of cell membranes, is important in order to understand not only the specifics of NP drug delivery and imaging but also to understand the harmful effects related to NP toxicity. In this work, a coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) with implicit solvent is used to elucidate the stability of LBs supported on silica substrates decorated with hydrophilic and hydrophobic NPs. We reproduce the experimental observation that large NP (>22 nm) can be coated by stable LBs, while smaller NPs (<22 nm) induces holes in the membrane. This result was achieved due to introducing novel features in CGMD set-up, which (a) secure the isotention membrane condition and (b) account for long-range lipid-substrate interactions due to the existence of the nanometer thick hydration layers between LB and silica. The latter effect is incorporated by using the effective long-range potential of interactions between lipid heads and silica mimicking the disjoining pressure developed in the hydration layer. The proposed GCMD method allowed for simulation of large systems with up to 40 nm NPs in the simulation cell of 231*154*77 nm^3 in volume. The method can be extended and applied to other NP-membrane systems, specifically to study the membrane stability affected by the presence of host bodies.

Figs 13.10, 11
1915 Phacops (Pterygometopus) dagon; Reed, pl. 9, figs 1–6, non fig. 3.
Material. Lectotype (selected herein): cephalic shield, original of Reed (1915) pl. 9, fig 1, GSI 11568. Pygidium, original of Reed (1915) pl. 9, fig. 5, GSI 11571. Upper Naungkangi Beds, Mangai. All specimens from Upper Naungkangyi Beds (Katian) at Man Ngai, northern Shan State.
Discussion. As considered above, Reed (1915) described a variety of what he termed Phacops (Pterygometopus) dagon as var. wynnei, which is regarded herein as a different taxon. The material of the nominate species is limited, and we have not been able to cast some of the original specimens, as they are fragile. The robust largest cranidium is selected as lectotype. A smaller cephalon illustrated by Reed (1915, pl. 9 fig. 2; Fig. 13.10) shows a well-defined anterior border, which was likely also present on the lectotype, though obviously broken medially in that specimen. Such a border is atypical of Dalmanitina, and may possibly suggest such genera as Mucronaspis, but without knowledge of the rest of the exoskeleton we prefer a provisional allocation to the older established genus. This border is extremely narrow on wynnei. The glabella of dagon is comparatively transverse anteriorly, and the bifurcation of the S1 is not so marked. Another small? cephalon illustrated by Reed (1915, pl. 9, fig. 3) is more like wynnei and is excluded from dagon here. The generic assignment of D.? dagon is equivocal, and the eyes are longer (exag.) than is typical for the dalmanitines according to Holloway (1981), a subfamily hard to delimit (Hammann & Leone, 2007). The species is placed provisionally in Dalmanitina pending a more comprehensive revision of Late Ordovician species.

Effects of volatile 1-octen-3-ol and biocontrol strain genetics on mycotoxin accumulation

description: Mycotoxins are fungal secondary metabolites that contaminate global food supplies by infecting pre- and post-harvest crops. Contaminated foods are highly hazardous to human health and cause economic losses to agricultural and food industries. Control of mycotoxin accumulation generally involves prevention such as use of chemical and biological agents to inhibit growth of toxigenic fungal strains. Two well-known toxins, patulin and aflatoxin, are among the most harmful compounds produced respectively by the fungi Penicillium expansum and Aspergillus flavus. Using molecular and computational methods, I investigated the biological mechanisms by which volatile 1-octen-3-ol affects patulin production by P. expansum and how genetic differences among non-aflatoxigenic A. flavus strains affect biocontrol effectiveness. My results demonstrate that exogenous volatile 1-octen-3-ol increases patulin production on a medium that normally suppresses biosynthesis of the mycotoxin. This increase correlates with an increased expression of a glucose oxidase gene and differential expression of thirty other genes involved in membrane transport, oxidation-reduction and carbohydrate metabolism. I compared the genomes and transcriptomes of two non-aflatoxigenic strains that are good or poor at biocontrol against aflatoxins to other sequenced A. flavus strains. The former contains an enriched number of genes predicted to be involved in oxidation-reduction processes that were not found in other inspected A. flavus strains. The non-aflatoxigenic strain that is a poor biocontrol agent has increased relative expression of six genes involved in stress response, which may help explain why the strain grows more slowly than other tested strains. A common theme that emerged from my studies on the genomes and transcriptomes of P. expansum and A. flavus was the identification of putative oxidation-reduction genes, indicating an important role of redox reactions in mycotoxin production. Overall, I obtained evidence for how 1-octen-3-ol induces patulin production and how high expression of stress response genes might impede competitive growth for aflatoxin biocontrol. It is my hope that this research will contribute to our general understanding of how volatile signaling and gene expression influence mycotoxin production and accumulation.
