Numerical Artifacts in the Discontinuous Generalized Porous Medium Equation: How to Avoid Spurious Temporal Oscillations

description: Numerical discretizations of the Generalized Porous Medium Equation (GPME) with discontinuous coefficients are analyzed with respect to the formation of numerical artifacts. In addition to the degeneracy and self-sharpening of the GPME with continuous coefficients, detailed in [1], increased numerical challenges occur in the discontinuous coefficients case. These numerical challenges manifest themselves in spurious temporal oscillations in second order finite volume discretizations with both arithmetic and harmonic averaging. The integral average, developed in [2] leads to improved solutions with monotone and reduced amplitude temporal oscillations. In this paper, we propose a new method called the Shock-Based Averaging Method (SAM) that incorporates the shock position into the numerical scheme. The shock position is numerically calculated by discretizing the theoretical speed of the front from the GPME theory. The speed satisfies the jump condition for integral conservation laws. SAM results in a non-oscillatory temporal profile, producing physically valid numerical results. We use SAM to demonstrate that the choice of averaging alone is not the cause of the oscillations, and that the shock position must be a part of the numerical scheme to avoid the artifacts.

description: A new theory of limit pricing is provided which works through the vertical contract signed between an incumbent manufacturer and a retailer. We establish conditions under which the incumbent can obtain full monopoly profits, even if the potential entrant is more efficient. A key feature of the optimal vertical contract we describe is quantity discounting, typically involving three-part incremental-units or all-units tariffs, with a marginal wholesale price that is below the incumbent’s marginal cost for sufficiently large quantities. / On propose une nouvelle théorie de la tarification limitée qui fonctionne par un contrat vertical signé entre un fabricant en exercice et un détaillant.

Canada China Relations under Political Tensions: A look through the lens of International Trade and Investmen
Creators: name: Yecong, Liu
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2022

description: China-Canada relations have a long history. 2020 represented the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Canada. Economic collaboration has been an important topic of bilateral exchange for decades. Yet, there has been no shortage of discussion of the deterioration of the relationship in recent years. The goal of this major research paper is to analyze the direction of the China-Canada relationship from a trade and investment perspective. The years 2018 and 2019 mark the lowest point in this relationship, but the seeds of the deeper causes were planted in the early years of diplomatic relations. The reason for this is the fundamental differences between the two countries in their understanding of the rule of law, human rights, and diplomatic approaches. These disagreements also had an impact on investment and trade, and these effects were undeniably passed on to the Canadian society itself. Analyzing these implications, this paper concludes that the future of the relationship, from a Canadian perspective, will focus on two areas: continued engagement with China to maintain collaboration on areas of common interest (e.g., climate change actions, two-way trade and investment cooperation) and active engagement with similarly minded Indo-Pacific partners to diversify trade and investments away from China.
Short-range correlation in high-momentum antisymmetrized molecular dynamics
Creators: name: Myo, Takayuki
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a new variational method for treating short-range repulsion of bare nuclear force for nuclei in antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). In AMD, the short-range correlation is described in terms of large imaginary centroids of Gaussian wave packets of nucleon pairs in opposite signs, causing high-momentum components in nucleon pair. We superpose these AMD basis states and name this method "high-momentum AMD" (HM-AMD), which is capable of describing strong tensor correlation (Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. (2017) 111D01). In this paper, we extend HM-AMD by including up to two kinds of nucleon pairs in each AMD basis state utilizing the cluster expansion, which produces many-body correlations involving high-momentum components. We investigate how much HM-AMD describes the short-range correlation by showing the results for $^3$H using the Argonne V4$^\prime$ central potential. It is found that HM-AMD reproduces the results of few-body calculations and also the tensor-optimized AMD. This means that HM-AMD is a powerful approach to describe the short-range correlation in nuclei. In HM-AMD, momentum directions of nucleon pairs isotropically contribute to the short-range correlation, which is different from the tensor correlation.

description: Interviews and telephone surveys with community residents revealed that water contamination concerns were consistently the most important factor affecting community member impressions of fracking and efforts to regulate fracking in New Brunswick. For some, the unknown risks associated with water contamination, wastewater, potentially uncontrolled release of methane and uncertainties over number and placement of wells are especially troubling. For others involved in the industry and in the business community, the fact that shale gas extraction, including fracking, had taken place in the Sussex region of the province without incident meant that risks were known and manageable. These individuals consistently spoke of shale gas development to fulfill a need for economic development and jobs, referring to New Brunswick’s high level of debt and deficit.

description: Since 2001, the CERT Insider Threat Center has built an extensive library and comprehensive database containing more than 600 cases of crimes committed against organizations by insiders. A significant class of insider crimes, insider theft of intellectual property, involves highly damaging attacks against organizations that result in significant tangible losses in the form of stolen business plans, customer lists, and other proprietary information. The Insider Threat Center's behavioral modeling of insiders who steal intellectual property shows that many insiders who stole their organization's intellectual property stole at least some of it within 30 days of their termination. This technical note presents an example of an insider threat pattern based on this insight. It then presents an example implementation of this pattern on an enterprise-class system using the centralized log storage and indexing engine Splunk to detect malicious insider behavior on a network.

description: Nexus metals represent a new type of topological material in which nodal lines merge at nexus points. Here, we propose novel networks in nexus systems through intertwining between nexus fermions and additional nodal lines. These nexus networks can be realized in several recently synthesized carbon honeycomb materials. In these carbon honeycombs, we demonstrate a phase transition between a nexus network and a system with triply-degenerate points and additional nodal lines. The Landau level spectra show unusual magnetic transport properties in the nexus networks. Our results pave the way toward realizations of new topological materials with novel transport properties beyond standard Weyl/Dirac semimetals.
Storytelling and Asperger Syndrome: A Key for Social Integration

description: Storytelling is a universal way of communication between human beings. It is inhibited when neurodevelopmental disorders hinder human reciprocity, the understanding of body language, and nuances of language. Asperger Syndrome (AS), one of these disorders, is characterized by social impairment and repetitive patterns of behaviour. Messages cannot be conveyed through storytelling, which causes social isolation and withdrawal of individuals with AS from society. The development of the mirror neuron system in the brain, which incites imitation of peers, might be altered in AS by a mechanism that is not entirely understood. Because mirroring the emotions of others is key to understanding their feelings and perceptions of the world, the “theory of mind” is not formed in individuals with AS as it normally would be. While studies have suggested this impediment, current views and evidence show that people with AS may use storytelling as a powerful tool to integrate themselves into society. Future research should investigate storytelling as an intervention to increase social interaction of individuals with AS.
Modeling and simulation of non linear electrophoresis

Subjects: Electrophoresis -- Mathematical models

description: This dissertation reports multi-dimensional numerical implementation and analytical solutions of two highly used electrophoretic separation techniques, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and isotachophoresis (ITP), in a microfluidic lab on a chip. A number of proteins and ampholytes have been simulated to elucidate the time evolution behaviors of proteins in microgeometries for the two techniques. Furthermore, a new pK determination method was developed from protein titration curve for computer simulation. As the final subject of the dissertation, the parallel computing model is developed in isoelectric focusing. Numerical modeling and simulation of ampholyte based isoelectric focusing were first developed to demonstrate the effect of complex microgeometries on the protein focusing under the influence of electric fields. A multi-dimensional computation model is formulated based on the mass conservation and ionic dissociation relations of amphoteric macromolecules, charge conservation, and the electroneutrality condition. 2D IEF is performed in the pH range using multiple ampholytes in the planar channel and in the contraction-expansion channel. In addition, for the parametric study, the effects of ampholyte dissociation constants and ampholyte
description: concentration on protein separations are studied in on-chip isoelectric focusing. In isotachophoresis, various advection and diffusion schemes are simulated for optimizing the numerical approach such as upwind, hybrid and power-law scheme. A nondimensional standard deviation index was introduced to evaluate the result of isotachophoresis and a cell Peclet number was suggested for accurate results of isotachophoresis simulation. The isotachophoresis model was specifically developed to expand the capillary (1D) microchannel to multi dimensional microchannel for complex microchip design. In the pK determination method, the new pK determination method was capable of being employed from simple amino acid to complex protein titration curve to determine multiple pK values from titration curve. Finite Volume based parallel implementation was conducted in isoelectric focusing for high speed simulation in the presence of up to 96 numbers of input components which are

description: We present an ultra-fast, precise, parameter-free method, which we term Deep-STORM, for obtaining super-resolution images from stochastically-blinking emitters, such as fluorescent molecules used for localization microscopy. Deep-STORM uses a deep convolutional neural network that can be trained on simulated data or experimental measurements, both of which are demonstrated. The method achieves state-of-the-art resolution under challenging signal-to-noise conditions and high emitter densities, and is significantly faster than existing approaches. Additionally, no prior information on the shape of the underlying structure is required, making the method applicable to any blinking data-set. We validate our approach by super-resolution image reconstruction of simulated and experimentally obtained data.

description: Removable media, such as universal serial bus (USB) flash drives, present unique problems to the enterprise since insiders can use such media to remove proprietary information from company systems. Insiders may do this for legitimate reasons, such as to work on material at home, or they may do so for malicious reasons, such as to steal intellectual property. Organizations must establish and implement effective methods and processes to prevent unauthorized use of removable media while still allowing users with a genuine business need to access and remove such media. In addition, organizations should establish sound methods to track critical electronic assets so that they may better protect them. This report focuses on the theft of intellectual property using removable media, in particular, USB devices. We present methods to control removable media devices in a Microsoft Windows environment using Group Policy within an Active Directory environment. We also explore OpenDLP, an open source tool for identifying where sensitive data resides on organizational systems.

description: Languages around the world are disappearing at an alarming rate. Language revitalization can help a “lesser used,” “[m]inoritized,” or “endangered” language be taken and returned to active use. The Maori are an indigenous population in New Zealand whose language, Te Reo Maori, is a lesser-used language when compared to English. The tremendous efforts put forth by the Maori people to revitalise their language has resulted in an increased awareness about their culture and has saved their saved their language from the brink of extinction. This research paper discusses the revitalization of the Maori language, specifically in the domains of education and the media. It also looks at the various social attitudes of both the Maori and the Non-Maori people towards the language and how that has affected the revitalization projects in New Zealand. This paper also briefly discusses whether the official status was just to recognize the language or to reverse language shift and help revitalize the language.

description: We construct the Mellin representation of four point conformal correlation function with external primary operators with arbitrary integer spacetime spins, and obtain a natural proposal for spinning Mellin amplitudes. By restricting to the exchange of symmetric traceless primaries, we generalize the Mellin transform for scalar case to introduce discrete Mellin variables for incorporating spin degrees of freedom. Based on the structures about spinning three and four point Witten diagrams, we also obtain a generalization of the Mack polynomial which can be regarded as a natural kinematical polynomial basis for computing spinning Mellin amplitudes using different choices of interaction vertices.

Mechanics of dilatancy and its application to liquefaction problems

Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2006
Subjects: Sand -- Mechanical properties

description: A novel conceptual model of the mechanics of sands is developed within an elastic-plastic framework. Central to this model is the realization that volume changes in anisotropic granular materials occur as a result of two fundamentally different mechanisms. The first is purely kinematic, dilative, and is the result of the changes in anisotropic fabric. There is also a second volume change in granular media that occurs as a direct response to changes in stress as in a standard elastic-plastic continuum. Inclusion of the two sources of volume change into the modified Cam Clay dissipation function results in a new anisotropic model which is suitable for sands with pronounced anisotropic granular arrangement. The conditions that lead to features such as phase transition line and ultimate state line that dense sands exhibit are predicted theoretically by the new anisotropic sand model and confirmed with experimental results. The conventional volumetric-shear strain relation obtained from triaxial experiment is used to determine the evolution of fabric anisotropic parameter.; The new anisotropic sand model is generalized to 3-D cases. Bounding surface plasticity theory is used to capture plastic deformation at small strain levels as well as during unloading/reloading. This enables the robust modeling of the accumulation of plastic strains as well as the buildup of excess pore pressure under cyclic loading of sands. The bounding surface formulation is implemented to the numerical code FLAC3D and used to simulate drained and undrained triaxial tests on Ottawa sand. The FLAC3D model is also used to simulate undrained cyclic triaxial test and predict the liquefaction behavior of Nevada sand observed in centrifuge tests. The analysis shows that the stress induced volumetric strain is the main cause for pore pressure build up leading to initialization of liquefaction whilst the fabric induced volumetric strain influences the post liquefaction behavior of sands.

The Neutral Ally: Sweden and the Social Construction of Security Identity
Creators: name: Parker, Joshua
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2017

description: Since the Napoleonic Wars, Sweden has not been the direct participant in any armed conflict, and has officially embraced a policy of neutrality. For centuries, this led to a strong policy of territorial defence and little interest in international cooperation in the fields of security and defence, despite a number of turbulent periods of war spreading across Europe. Focusing on the origins and evolution of Swedish neutrality since its inception, this paper aims to illustrate how the social construction of the Swedish security identity firmly established neutrality within the Swedish approach to foreign policy, and how this identity continues to influence Sweden’s contemporary approach to security and defence policy. Through the examination of Sweden’s entry into the European Union and participation in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Partnership for Peace program, this paper demonstrates how Swedish leaders have progressively shifted the Swedish security identity away from a traditionally neutral identity and towards a more ‘European’ identity, which has resulted in a number of substantial impacts on foreign and security policy at both the domestic and European levels. Finally, this paper contends that Sweden has adopted a progressively narrower definition of neutrality in order to better suit the realities of European security in the twenty-first century, and accommodate a growing willingness to cooperate with international partners in the fields of security and defence.

description: Malicious insiders pose a threat to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization’s information. Many organizations look for hardware and software solutions that address insider threats but are unsure of what characteristics to look for in a product. This technical note presents seven common attributes of insider threat cases, excluding espionage, drawn from the CERT® Division’s database. The note maps the seven attributes to characteristics insider threat products should possess in order to detect, prevent, or mitigate the threat. None of these attributes alone can identify a malicious insider. Rather, each attribute is one of many data points that an organization should consider when implementing an insider threat program.

description: Recent results from the Pierre Auger Collaboration have shown that the composition of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) becomes gradually heavier with increasing energy. Although gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been promising sources of UHECRs, it is still unclear whether they can account for the Auger results because of their unknown nuclear composition of ejected UHECRs. In this work, we revisit the possibility that low-luminosity GRBs (LL GRBs) act as the sources of UHECR nuclei, and give new predictions based on the intrajet nuclear composition models considering progenitor dependencies. We find that the nuclear component in the jet can be divided into two groups according to the mass fraction of silicon nuclei, Si-free and Si-rich. Motivated by the connection between LL GRBs and transrelativistic supernovae, we also consider the hypernova ejecta composition. Then, we discuss the survivability of UHECR nuclei in the jet base and internal shocks of the jets, and show that it is easier for nuclei to survive for typical LL GRBs. Finally, we numerically propagate UHECR nuclei ejected from LL GRBs with different composition models and compare the resulting spectra and composition to Auger data. Our results show that both the Si-rich progenitor and hypernova ejecta models match the Auger data well, while the Si-free progenitor models have more difficulty in fitting the spectrum. We argue that our model is consistent with the newly reported cross correlation between the UHECRs and starburst galaxies, since both LL GRBs and hypernovae are expected to be tracers of the star-formation activity. LL GRBs have also been suggested as the dominant origin of IceCube neutrinos in the PeV range, and the LL GRB origin of UHECRs can be critically tested by near-future multimessenger observations.

description: Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows two remote users to establish a secret key in the presence of an eavesdropper. The users share quantum states prepared in two mutually-unbiased bases: one to generate the key while the other monitors the presence of the eavesdropper. Here, we show that a general $d$-dimension QKD system can be secured by transmitting only a subset of the monitoring states. In particular, we find that there is no loss in the secure key rate when dropping one of the monitoring states. Furthermore, it is possible to use only a single monitoring state if the quantum bit error rates are low enough. We apply our formalism to an experimental $d=4$ time-phase QKD system, where only one monitoring state is transmitted, and obtain a secret key rate of $17.4 \pm 2.8$ Mbits/s at a 4 dB channel loss and with a quantum bit error rate of $0.045\pm0.001$ and $0.044\pm0.001$ in time and phase bases, respectively, which is 58.4 % of the secret key rate that can be achieved with the full setup. This ratio can be increased, potentially up to 100 %, if the error rates in time and phase basis are reduced. Our results demonstrate that it is possible to substantially simplify the design of high-dimension QKD systems, including those that use the spatial or temporal degrees-of-freedom of the photon, and still outperform qubit-based ($d = 2$) protocols.

description: Visible light-activated photobonding of tissues presents an attractive alternative to surgical suturing for closing of dermal wounds. The advantages of photo-bonding include reduced inflammation and less scarring. However, the materials currently used for light-activated wound closure allow for only a limited, if any, ability to modulate the biological and mechanical properties of the resulting bonded tissue. Particularly, the micrometric void within dermal wounds presents another obstacle for the photo-bonding materials, since collagen structures are required for the photobonding to occur. Therefore, developing a light-activated biomaterial glue that can overcome these limitations would represent an important advance in translational potential. To this end, we have developed a new generation of photo-bonding materials based on vinyl-modified collagen and rose Bengal that are crosslinkable using visible light.
Study of electromagnetic field uniformity in radio frequency heating applicator

Subjects: Radiation preservation of food

description: A 6kW 27MHz pilot scale radio frequency (RF) heating system was developed at Washington State University for processing 6-pound packaged foods to achieve shelf-stability. Although RF heating presents the possibility of improving food quality in a shorter processing time than the conventional retort heating method, it still confronts the heating non-uniformity caused by fringe effects. The objectives of this research were to gain a better understanding of the dielectric heating process, to study the factors that may influence the RF heating pattern and heating rate, and to investigate the possibility of achieving heating uniformity during the RF heating process.
description: To support this project, a dielectric properties measurement system was used to determine the complex permittivity of materials used in dielectric heating over a temperature range from 20 to 120 °C at radio frequencies (27 and 40 MHz) and microwave frequencies (915 and 1800 MHz). The dielectric properties of egg products were measured with an open-end coaxial probe method. The dielectric property information was used to adjust the electric conductivity of the circulating water that immersed the packaged foods and mitigated fringing electric field and edge-heating effects during the RF heating process, and to support the implementation of the computer simulating on RF heating process.
description: Experiments and computer simulations using the finite element method were performed to study the influence of food dielectric properties and circulating water electric conductivity on RF heating rate and heating pattern. The results of this work indicated that with the increase of electric conductivity of circulating water or food loss factor, the heating rate decreased. Both the dielectric properties of food and electric conductivity of circulating water affected the electric field distribution inside the food.
description: Experiments and computer simulations were also conducted on RF heating of a heterogeneous food, meat balls in lasagna. The results demonstrated that RF heating had a potential to process pre-packaged heterogeneous food. Proper distribution and suitable size of each component, though with vastly different dielectric properties, are possible to ensure relatively uniform RF heating.
Narcissism and Cultural Liberation: A Textual and Cultural Analysis of Carol Shields’ ‘Mirrors.’

description: This paper will analyze Carol Shields‘ short story "Mirrors" in the collection Dressing Up for the Carnival. The paper will explore how the absence of mirrors in the story creates a break in narcissism, which liberates the characters from cultural impositions. This will be done using Jonathan Culler‘s ―Narrative‖ to analyze the parts of the plot where mirrors appear, or where the couple mirrors each other. The analysis will utilize the psychoanalytical and cultural underpinnings of Freud, Lacan, Lunbeck, Friedman, and Adorno and Horkheimer. Through the breaks in narcissism, the characters are liberated from the cultural impositions of vanity, fashion, marriage, and beauty, among others. Finally, the aspects of narcissism inherent in the setting and internal dialogue of the characters will be examined.

description: We present a classical model for high harmonic generation during the propagation of an intense laser pulse through an atomic gas. Numerical simulations of the model show excellent quantitative agreement with the corresponding quantum model for the blueshift and intensity reduction of the propagating laser pulse over experimentally realistic propagation distances. We observe a significant extension of the high-harmonic cutoff due to propagation effects. Phase-space analysis of our classical model uncovers the mechanism behind this extension.
