description: Expanding far beyond traditional applications in optical interconnects at telecommunications wavelengths, the silicon nanophotonic integrated circuit platform has recently proven its merits for working with mid-infrared (mid-IR) optical signals in the 2-8 μm range. Mid-IR integrated optical systems are capable of addressing applications including industrial process and environmental monitoring, threat detection, medical diagnostics, and free-space communication. Rapid progress has led to the demonstration of various silicon components designed for the on-chip processing of mid-IR signals, including waveguides, vertical grating couplers, microcavities, and electrooptic modulators. Even so, a notable obstacle to the continued advancement of chip-scale systems is imposed by the narrow-bandgap semiconductors, such as InSb and HgCdTe, traditionally used to convert mid-IR photons to electrical currents. The cryogenic or multi-stage thermo-electric cooling required to suppress dark current noise, exponentially dependent upon the ratio Eg/kT, can limit the development of small, low-power, and low-cost integrated optical systems for the mid-IR. However, if the mid-IR optical signal could be spectrally translated to shorter wavelengths, for example within the near-infrared telecom band, photodetectors using wider bandgap semiconductors such as InGaAs or Ge could be used to eliminate prohibitive cooling requirements. Moreover, telecom band detectors typically perform with higher detectivity and faster response times when compared with their mid-IR counterparts. Here we address these challenges with a silicon-integrated approach to spectral translation, by employing efficient four-wave mixing (FWM) and large optical parametric gain in silicon nanophotonic wires.

description: Based on numerical simulations of a lattice kinetic model for soft-glassy materials, we characterize the global rheology of a dense emulsion-like system, under three representative load conditions: Couette flow, time-oscillating Strain and Kolmogorov flow. It is found that in all cases the rheology is described by a Herschel-Bulkley (HB) relation, $σ= σ_{Y} + A S^β$, with the yield stress $σ_{Y}$ largely independent of the loading scenario. A proper rescaling of the HB parameters permits to describe heterogeneous flows with space-dependent stresses, based on the notion of cooperativity, as recently proposed to characterize the degree of non-locality of stress relaxation phenomena in soft-glassy materials.

description: In three-dimensional computational topology, the theory of normal surfaces is a tool of great theoretical and practical significance. Although this theory typically leads to exponential time algorithms, very little is known about how these algorithms perform in "typical" scenarios, or how far the best known theoretical bounds are from the real worst-case scenarios. Here we study the combinatorial and algebraic complexity of normal surfaces from both the theoretical and experimental viewpoints. Theoretically, we obtain new exponential lower bounds on the worst-case complexities in a variety of settings that are important for practical computation. Experimentally, we study the worst-case and average-case complexities over a comprehensive body of roughly three billion input triangulations. Many of our lower bounds are the first known exponential lower bounds in these settings, and experimental evidence suggests that many of our theoretical lower bounds on worst-case growth rates may indeed be asymptotically tight.

title: Mycorrhizal availability in the basin of Lake Mills and influence on colonization and growth of Salix scouleriana under drought stress
Creators: name: Cortese, Andrew
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2014

description:
In September 2011, the removal of two dams on the Elwha River was initiated as part of the largest dam removal project in history. The drainage of Lakes Mills and Aldwell exposed 300 hectares of reservoir bottom. Reestablishment of native vegetation in the lakebeds is critical for the restoration of ecosystem function, but the reservoir sediment composition may inhibit revegetation due to poor water holding capacity. It is known that mycorrhizae can ameliorate the effects of drought stress for host plants but little is known about their availability in the Lake Mills basin. In my project, I first assessed the abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) in the Lake Mills basin. I also conducted a greenhouse bioassay in which I grew willows in potting soil and Elwha silt with different treatments of mycorrhizal inoculum. I then drought stressed the willows in order to replicate the expected summertime conditions in the Lake Mills basin. There are some viable AMF and EMF in Lake Mills, but with higher abundance near the forest and high variability in the soil. There was no effect of mycorrhizal inoculum on growth of willows and no effect of the Elwha silt on formation of AM and EM. My results suggest that willows are not dependent on mycorrhizal fungi and can establish independent of mycorrhizal propagules. Mycorrhizae can then form with willows when propagules are available, boost the mycorrhizal infectivity of the soil and then subsequently facilitate the establishment of other plant species.

description: Let $K$ be a simple $2q$-knot with exterior $X$. We show directly how the Farber quintuple $(A,Π,α,\ell,ψ)$ determines the homotopy type of $X$ if the torsion subgroup of $A=π_q(X)$ has odd order. We comment briefly on the possible role of the EHP sequence in recovering the boundary inclusion from the duality pairings $\ell $ and $ψ$. Finally we reformulate the Farber quintuple as an hermitian self-duality of an object in an additive category with involution.

description: In dieser Arbeit werden die grundlegenden optischen Eigenschaften einer getaperten Faser dargestellt. Dabei entstand ein Computerprogramm, um die Lichtausbreitung im Taper mit Hilfe gekoppelter lokaler Moden zu beschreiben. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass am existierenden Faserziehplatz adiabatische Taper im sub-Mikrometer-Bereich hergestellt werden können. Bei der Herstellung steilerer Taper ändert sich die Transmission während des Ziehprozesses in charakteristischer Weise, so dass auf den aktuellen Taillendurchmesser geschlossen werden kann. Bei einem Taillendurchmesser von 270 nm ist die Transmission der Taper bei einer Wellenlänge von 1.55 m jedoch sehr klein und liefert keine Aussage mehr über den Durchmesser. Vermutlich ist es möglich, Taper mit noch dünneren Durchmessern herzustellen. Um den Herstellungsprozess für sub-m-Durchmesser zu überwachen, sollte eine niedrigere Lichtwellenlänge zur Transmissionsmessung eingesetzt werden. In dieser Arbeit werden außerdem grundlegende Überlegungen zur Dispersion von Tapern angestellt. Das Ergebnis ist, dass erst ab 1 m Taillendurchmesser wesentliche Änderungen gegenüber der ungetaperten Faser auftreten. Es bietet sich an, die Dispersion von Tapern mit dem im IPHT Jena vorhandenen interferometrischen Messplatz zu vermessen und die Überlegungen mit vektoriellen Rechnungen fortzusetzen. In diesem Zusammenhang kann auch die Weißlichterzeugung in Tapern untersucht werden. Ein vielversprechender Ansatz zur Herstellung von Sensoren ist, ein Faser-Bragg-Gitter in die Tapertaille einzuschreiben. Wenn dies gelingt, werden sehr sensible photonische Sensoren z. B. für die Biotechnologie zugänglich. In dieser Arbeit wurde das Profil des Taperübergangs so gewählt, dass es sich einfach herstellen lässt. Es sind vermutlich optimierte Profile möglich, die bei gleicher Transmission kürzer und schneller herstellbar sind. Für den Einsatz als Nahfeldsonde muss zusätzlich zur Transmission auch die mechanische Stabilität der Taper in Betracht gezogen werden.

These include the first determination of the masses of the Borromean drip-line nuclei $^{19}$B, $^{22}$C and $^{29}$F as well as that of $^{34}$Na. In addition, the most precise determinations to date for $^{23}$N and $^{31}$Ne are reported. Coupled with recent interaction cross-section measurements, the present results support the occurrence of a two-neutron halo in $^{22}$C, with a dominant $\nu2s_{1/2}^2$ configuration, and a single-neutron halo in $^{31}$Ne with the valence neutron occupying predominantly the 2$p_{3/2}$ orbital. Despite a very low two-neutron separation energy the development of a halo in $^{19}$B is hindered by the 1$d_{5/2}^2$ character of the valence neutrons.

3D Modeling and Design Optimization of Rod Shaped Ionic Polymer Metal Composite Actuator
Creators: name: Ruiz, Siul A.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2013

description: Ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMCs) are some of the most well-known electro-active polymers. This is due to their large deformation provided a relatively low voltage source. IPMCs have been acknowledged as a potential candidate for biomedical applications such as cardiac catheters and surgical probes; however, there is still no existing mass manufacturing of IPMCs. This study intends to provide a theoretical framework which could be used to design practical purpose IPMCs depending on the end users interest.
This study begins by investigating methodologies used to develop quantify the physical actuation of an IPMC in 3-dimensional space. This approach is taken in two separate means; however, both approaches utilize the finite element method. The first approach utilizes the finite element method in order to describe the dynamic response of a segmented IPMC actuator. The first approach manually constructs each element with a local coordinate system. Each system undergoes a rigid body motion along the element and deformation of the element is expressed in the local coordinate frame. The physical phenomenon in this system is simplified by utilizing a lumped RC model in order to simplify the electro-mechanical phenomena in the IPMC dynamics.
The second study investigates 3D modeling of a rod shaped IPMC actuator by explicitly coupling electrostatics, transport phenomenon, and solid mechanics. This portion of the research will briefly discuss the mathematical background that more accurately quantifies the physical phenomena. Solving for the 3-dimensional actuation is explicitly carried out again by utilizing the finite element method. The numerical result is conducted in a software package known as COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS. This simulation allows for explicit geometric rendering as well as more explicit quantification of the physical quantities such as concentration, electric field, and deflection
The final study will conduct design optimization on the COMSOL simulation in order to provide conceptual motivation for future designs. Utilizing a multi-physics analysis approach on a three dimensional cylinder and tube type IPMC provides physically accurate results for time dependent end effector displacement given a voltage source. Simulations are conducted with the finite element method and are also validated with empirical evidences. Having an in-depth understanding of the physical coupling provides optimal design parameters that cannot be altered from a standard electro-mechanical coupling. These parameters are altered in order to determine optimal designs for end-effector displacement, maximum force, and improved mobility with limited voltage magnitude. Design alterations are conducted on the electrode patterns in order to provide greater mobility, electrode size for efficient bending, and Nafion diameter for improved force. The results of this study will provide optimal design parameters of the IPMC for different applications.

description: The hydrogen-methane compound (H_2)_4CH_4---or for short H4M---is one of the most promising hydrogen-storage materials. This van der Waals compound is extremely rich in molecular hydrogen: 33.3 mass%, not including the hydrogen bound in CH_4; including it, we reach even 50.2 mass%. Unfortunately, H4M is not stable under ambient pressure and temperature, requiring either low temperature or high pressure. In this paper, we investigate the properties and structure of the molecular and crystalline forms of H4M, using ab initio methods based on van der Waals DFT (vdW-DF). We further investigate the possibility of creating the pressures required to stabilize H4M through external agents such as metal organic framework (MOF) materials and carbon nanotubes, with very encouraging results. In particular, we find that certain MOFs can create considerable pressure for H4M in their cavities, but not enough to stabilize it at room temperature, and moderate cooling is still necessary. On the other hand, we find that all investigated carbon nanotubes can create the high pressures required for H4M to be stable at room temperature, with direct implications for new and exciting hydrogen-storage applications.

An End To End V.M.T Framework With Controlled V.M.T Tax Rate Using Optimal Feedback Control Technique
Creators: name: Verma, Pratik
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2013

description: Vehicle Mile Travel (VMT) is a study related to available alternatives for the road
revenue collection system. As per the demand, the existing Gas/Fuel tax based revenue
collection system is not found an appropriate option in the longer run. Due
to existing system constraints like: no eective tax process for vehicles based on alternative
fuel (e.g. electric vehicles), no eective changes in tax due to economical
ination, and more highway expenditure than generated revenue, an alternative revenue
collection mechanism is required. Hence, the objective is to study an alternative
option in detail, which can address the gaps between required revenue and generated
revenue in existing collection system. In Nevada, Phase1 of the study was completed
in 2010, which included: 1) Design of a GPS based mileage fee system, 2) To conduct
comprehensive public outreach, identify concerns, educate the public about the shortfalls
and limitations of the current fuel tax, 3) Assessment and evaluation of potential
privacy impacts, 4) Analyses of institutional, policy, legislative, and legal aspects,
and 5) Developing economic models to assess and recommend equitable VMT fee. As
part of this work, the main objective is to study the Vehicle Mile Traveled (VMT) tax
based revenue collection system solution over existing gas tax based revenue collection
system. Objective also consists of small-scale eld test that needs to be conducted
with 25 participants to assess the feasibility of the VMT system. Other components
of thesis include: identifying the technical details in order to have complete VMT
infrastructure, data analysis, qualitative analysis of reviews collected during phase 1
and phase 2 in order to compare the privacy concern" in both the phases, analyzing
the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) database to assess the approximate VMT
tax rate. An optimal control model has also been developed to control rate per mile
to optimize the generated revenue based on VMT tax.

description: We present a calculation of the recombination rate of the excited holon-doublon pairs based on the two-dimensional model relevant for undoped cuprates which shows that fast processes, observed in pump-probe experiments on Mott-Hubbard insulators in picosecond range, can be explained even quantitatively with the multi-magnon emission. The precondition is the existence of the Mott-Hubbard bound exciton of the s-type. We find that its decay is exponentially dependent on the Mott-Hubbard gap and on the magnon energy, with a small prefactor which can be traced back to strong correlations and consequently large exciton-magnon coupling.

description: This paper is based on the author's talk at the 2012 Workshop on Geometric Methods in Physics held in Bialowieza, Poland. The aim of the talk is to introduce the audience to the Eynard-Orantin topological recursion. The formalism is originated in random matrix theory. It has been predicted, and in some cases it has been proven, that the theory provides an effective mechanism to calculate certain quantum invariants and a solution to enumerative geometry problems, such as open Gromov-Witten invariants of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds, single and double Hurwitz numbers, the number of lattice points on the moduli space of smooth algebraic curves, and quantum knot invariants. In this paper we use the Laplace transform of generalized Catalan numbers of an arbitrary genus as an example, and present the Eynard-Orantin recursion. We examine various aspects of the theory, such as its relations to mirror symmetry, Gromov-Witten invariants, integrable hierarchies such as the KP equations, and the Schroedinger equations.

description: The taxon Beloniformes represents a heterogeneous group of teleost fishes including distinct forms as ricefishes (Adrianichthyidae), flying fishes (Exocoetidae), halfbeaks (Hemiramphidae), needlefishes (Belonidae), and sauries (Scomberesocidae) which show an extraordinary diversity of their jaw morphology. Beside the monophyly of Beloniformes, the relationships of its major taxa are disputed resulting in the proposal of several conflicting phylogenetic hypotheses. In order to investigate the contribution of cranial soft tissue elements to this debate the morphology of the jaw apparatus of five representatives of Beloniformes and four related species were comparatively analysed based on manual dissections, Azan-stained serial sections and 3d reconstructions. The 37 cranial soft tissue characters described in this study were mapped onto the alternative topologies and supported at best the monophyly of Beloniformes. Although Oryzias latipes shows numerous autapomorphic characters, Beloniformes are characterised by a derived reduction of the intramandibular portion of m. adductor mandibulae and the specific course of truncus maxillaris, which separates near the jaw joint. Within Beloniformes a sister group relationship of Adrianichthyidae to a clade consisting of ((Exocoetidae + Hemiramphidae) + (Belonidae + Scomberesocidae)) is supported by the reduction of the external section of m. adductor mandibulae and the shift of the m. levator arcus palatini origin to the sphenotic. These different observed characters could be correlated altogether to the reduced mobility between the elongated beak-like jaw bones evolved within this group.

description: Let A be a standard Borel space, and consider the space A^{\bbN^{(k)}} of A-valued arrays indexed by all size-k subsets of \bbN. This paper concerns random measures on such a space whose laws are invariant under the natural action of permutations of \bbN. The main result is a representation theorem for such `exchangeable' random measures, obtained using the classical representation theorems for exchangeable arrays due to de Finetti, Hoover, Aldous and Kallenberg. After proving this representation, two applications of exchangeable random measures are given. The first is a short new proof of the Dovbysh-Sudakov Representation Theorem for exchangeable PSD matrices. The second is in the formulation of a natural class of limit objects for dilute mean-field spin glass models, retaining more information than just the limiting Gram-de Finetti matrix used in the study of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model.

description: Die Möglichkeit einer Stimmverstellung steckt potenziell in jeder Sprachaufnahme, die im Zusammenhang mit einer Straftat steht. Eine Verstellungsart stellt die Stimmverstellung unter Verwendung eines fremdsprachigen Akzents dar. Für diese Studie wurden zwei Akzente (französischer und türkischer Akzent) ausgewählt, durch die zwölf Sprecher ihre Stimmen verstellen sollten. Untersucht wurden die phonetischen (phonatorischen und artikulatorischen) und linguistischen Variationen, die die Sprecher für ihre Verstellungsversuche vornahmen. Die Variationen waren überraschend vielfältig und entsprachen in vielen Fällen den Abweichungen, die tatsächlich von Deutsch sprechenden Nicht-Muttersprachlern erwartet werden können. Allerdings konnten sie nicht mit der Konsistenz durchgeführt werden, mit der sie wahrscheinlich von einem authentischen Nicht-Muttersprachler durchgeführt worden wären.

description: We present some aspects of photon counting to study scintillators at low temperatures. A time-to-digital converter (TDC) had been configured to acquire several-minute-long streams of data, simplifying the multiple photon counting coincidence technique. Results in terms of light yield and time structure of a ZnWO4 scintillator are comparable to those obtained with a fast digitizer. Streaming data also provides flexibility in analyzing the data, in terms of coincidence window between the channels, and acquisition window of individual channels. We discuss the effect of changing these parameters, and use them to confirm low-energy features in the spectra of the number of detected photons, such as the 60 keV line from 241Am in the ZnWO4 sample. We lastly use the TDC to study the transmission of the optical cryostat employed in these studies at various temperatures.

description: The effect of initial state fluctuations on jet energy loss in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is studied in a 2+1 dimension ideal hydrodynamic model. Within the next-to-leading order perturbative QCD description of hard scatterings, we find that a jet loses slightly more energy in the expanding quark-gluon plasma if the latter is described by the hydrodynamic evolution with fluctuating initial conditions compared to the case with smooth initial conditions. A detailed analysis indicates that this is mainly due to the positive correlation between the fluctuation in the production probability of parton jets from initial nucleon-nucleon hard collisions and the fluctuation in the medium density along the path traversed by the jet. This effect is larger in non-central than in central relativistic heavy ion collisions and also for jet energy loss that has a linear than a quadratic dependence on its path length in the medium.
