description: Constantly changing and developing technological life eases life on one hand, and creates new risks on the other. In the 21st century which is termed as “the age of technology”, computer and internet usage have become indispensable elements of life. Internet addiction has recently emerged as a new type of addiction which came to the agenda with technological developments. Failing to impose restrictions on internet usage, continuing to use it despite its social and academic damages and suffering from excessive anxiety when access to internet is restricted are symptoms of this new type of addiction and is one of the first examples of digital disease types which entered psychiatry literature as of 1990s. These types of recently-defined digital diseases which can be seen at almost every age have turned into a risk factor especially for 12-18 age group. The purpose of this article is to examine the types of digital diseases which emerge out of social media usage and problematic usage as a result of digitalization.

description: An innovative approach to support student services for an educational institution is proposed in this paper. This approach is applied to integrate the student centralized services to help problem student who probably dropping out the university. The student support service workflow information system (SSS WIS) is developed to support the approach. The system consists of: (1) student information system to analyze the problems that will occur in the following area: financial, health, social and psychological aspects, (2) the notification and appointment system to solve problems, and (3) troubleshooting system. The SSS WIS can be used to systematically support the students. It can solve the student problems on demand. This affects the higher retention rate. In addition, students can graduate from the university on time.

description: Neutrino-dominated accretion flows (NDAFs) around rotating stellar-mass black holes are plausible candidates for the central engines of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We investigate one-dimensional global solutions of NDAFs, taking account of general relativity in Kerr metric, neutrino physics and nucleosynthesis more precisely than previous works. We calculate sixteen solutions with different characterized accretion rates and black hole spins to exhibit the radial distributions of various physical properties in NDAFs. \iffalse We find that the gas pressure and the neutrino cooling always become dominated in the inner region for large accretion rate, $\gtrsim 0.1 M_\odot$ $\rm s^{-1}$. \fi We confirm that the electron degeneracy has important effects in NDAFs and we find that the electron fraction is about 0.46 in the outer region for all the sixteen solutions. From the perspective of the mass fraction, free nucleons, $\rm ^4He$, and $\rm ^{56}Fe$ dominate in the inner, middle, and outer region, respectively. The influence of neutrino trapping on the annihilation is of importance for the superhigh accretion ($\dot M=10M_{\odot} \rm s^{-1}$) and most of the sixteen solutions have an adequate annihilation luminosity for GRBs.

description: With our technology we measure every physical change or phenomena in our world. Using large collection of algorithms, we process, analyse, calculate, and gather results of every measured physical change. In that way a large database of raw data is created. The idea is to make a program that will understand our input data and make all calculations that we need. For that operation, we want to distinguish the “LabView” by National Instruments. LabView creates Virtual Instruments (VI’s), so, we can use the same VI’s for different type of input data with small change in parameters and filters according to the type of the data.

description: Extending learning beyond the walls of classroom is inevitable to enhance student satisfaction. Past studies have researched blended learning in silo, and not much attention has been paid to learner’s characteristics. The objective of this study is to examine the complex relationship among stuent satisfaction, engagement, blended learning and learner’s characteristics. Data was collected from LMS records, focus-group interviews and self-administered surveys. The findings depict that business students were highly engaged and satisfied with blended learning. The present study contributes to the literature and proposes an integrated framework of blended learning and student engagement with moderating role of learner’s proficiency.

description: Faculty evaluation is widely used not only for the appraisal of their performance, but also for curriculum innovation and development. There are many techniques to perform faculty evaluation. But these techniques do not address all the factors essential for evaluating a faculty. These evaluations are subjective in nature and found to be controversial as students’ expectations vary. This hinders the main motive of faculty evaluation. To overcome this problem, there is a need to identify a suitable method to perform faculty evaluation. In this paper, the Conjoint Analysis, a mathematical statistics technique is used to analyze the major aspects that the students are expecting from their faculty. This technique increases the fairness in the appraisal process so that teaching can be made fun and effective. This research is a novel attempt that applies conjoint analysis to identify the major aspects of teaching in students’ perspective. The proposed idea can be adapted to any domain where the customers’ choice is valued particularly in Cloud computing services.

description: A triple space is a homogeneous space $G/H$ where $G=G_0\times G_0\times G_0$ is a threefold product group and $H\simeq G_0$ the diagonal subgroup of $G$. This paper concerns the geometry of the triple spaces with $G_0=\SL(2,\R)$, $\SL(2,\C)$ or $\SO_e(n,1)$ for $n\ge 2$. We determine the abelian subgroups $A\subset G$ for which there is a polar decomposition $G=KAH$, and we determine for which minimal parabolic subgroups $P\subset G$, the orbit $PH$ is open in $G/H$.

Subjects: subject: Pattern Formation and Solitons (nlin.PS)

description: As a first step toward a fully two-dimensional asymptotic theory for the bifurcation of solitons from infinitesimal continuous waves, an analytical theory is presented for line solitons, whose envelope varies only along one direction, in general two-dimensional periodic potentials. For this two-dimensional problem, it is no longer viable to rely on a certain recurrence relation for going beyond all orders of the usual multi-scale perturbation expansion, a key step of the exponential asymptotics procedure previously used for solitons in one-dimensional problems. Instead, we propose a more direct treatment which not only overcomes the recurrence-relation limitation, but also simplifies the exponential asymptotics process. Using this modified technique, we show that line solitons with any rational line slopes bifurcate out from every Bloch-band edge; and for each rational slope, two line-soliton families exist. Furthermore, line solitons can bifurcate from interior points of Bloch bands as well, but such line solitons exist only for a couple of special line angles due to resonance with the Bloch bands. In addition, we show that a countable set of multi-line-soliton bound states can be constructed analytically. The analytical predictions are compared with numerical results for both symmetric and asymmetric potentials, and good agreement is obtained.

A uniqueness theorem for these mappings sharing few moving hypersurfaces without counting multiplicity is also given. This result is an improvement of the recent result of Dethloff - Tan [3]. Moreover the meromorphic mappings in our result may be algebraically degenerate. The last purpose of this article is to study uniqueness problem in the case where the meromorphic mappings agree on small identical sets.

description: We develop an efficient estimation procedure for identifying and estimating the central subspace. Using a new way of parameterization, we convert the problem of identifying the central subspace to the problem of estimating a finite dimensional parameter in a semiparametric model. This conversion allows us to derive an efficient estimator which reaches the optimal semiparametric efficiency bound. The resulting efficient estimator can exhaustively estimate the central subspace without imposing any distributional assumptions. Our proposed efficient estimation also provides a possibility for making inference of parameters that uniquely identify the central subspace. We conduct simulation studies and a real data analysis to demonstrate the finite sample performance in comparison with several existing methods.

title: Design and simulation of a microgrid system for a university campus in Nigeria
Creators: name: Ogbikaya, Stephen
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2022

description: The thesis presents the design and simulation of a microgrid system for a university community in Nigeria. Firstly, the system sizing and design was done in Homer Pro software where the microgrid system obtained consist of the grid system, 3,726 solar panel of 0.5kW, diesel generator of 1.5MVA and inverter of 500kW installed in an area of 17,696m2 at a cost of ₦295 with a simple payback of 3 years and 5 months at a reduced cost of electricity bill by 88.0% and a reduce CO2 emissions. Due to the high PV size of 1,863kW required by this design, other software such as OpenSolar, PVWatt and REopt was used to design the same system to optimise the PV size. The resulting system design consist of a PV size of 675.2 kW comprising of 96 cell modules each of 500W, with 25 connected in series and 54 in parallel. Also, a utility grid system and a diesel generator set in case of emergency. The system was then simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment to determine the dynamics of the university microgrid system. Simulated results indicate that the system has acceptable dynamics with changes in the electric load, but the dynamic simulation was extremely slow. To solve these challenges, the reduced order model of the microgrid system was design in MATLAB/Simulink environment to speed up the simulation time. Simulated results indicates that the reduced order model obtained is more than 4 times faster than the original microgrid system of the campus community. Lastly, the monitoring system of the campus microgrid system was designed. Analysis shows that to monitor the dc part of the network, 54 number dc current sensor and a dc voltage sensor would be required and for the ac portion, 9 number ac current sensor and 6 number ac voltage sensor would be required. These sensors are connected to a data logger that is directly connected to a computer system with internet for remote monitoring and control of the microgrid system. Complete details of system design, sizing, dynamic simulation, reduced order model and monitoring are presented and explained in this thesis.

Such thresholdless surface states, that can be referred to as Tamm-Hubbard BIC states, exist provided that the impurity potential $V$ is attractive (repulsive) and the particle-particle Hubbard interaction $U$ is repulsive (attractive), i.e. for $UV<0$.

description: Single vehicle (SV) run-off-road crashes are a major cause of severe injury and fatality. Such crashes can result in different levels of severity depending on the direction (i.e., left or right) in which the vehicle runs off the road. This paper investigated the factors contributing to the crash severities of right run-off-road (R-ROR) and left run-off-road (L-ROR) SV crashes. The study used SV crash data from the City of Charlotte, North Carolina, covering 2014 to 2017. Two separate random parameter ordered logit (RPOL) models were developed to estimate the contributing factors to R-ROR and L-ROR SV crash severities. The impact of the explanatory variables on the crash severity outcomes was quantified using the models’ direct pseudo-elasticities. The model results showed that male drivers, Driving Under Influence (DUI), motorcycles, and dry road surfaces were significant contributing factors to R-ROR and L-ROR SV crash severities. Specifically for the R-ROR model, speeding, reckless driving, 1–2 lanes, and older drivers increased crash severity. For the L-ROR model, phone distraction, crossed centerline/median, 3–4 lanes, rain, and dark unlighted roadway increased crash severity. Based on the estimated parameters for the common significant variables in the two models, it was inferred that L-ROR SV crashes are more likely to result in severe crashes compared to R-ROR SV crashes. Hence, this study contributes to the literature on ROR SV crashes by providing additional insight into contextual factors influencing ROR crash severity for more effective countermeasures.

description: We study the kinematics and excitation mechanisms of H2 and [Fe II] lines in a sample of 67 emission-line galaxies with Infrared Telescope Facility SpeX near-infrared (NIR, 0.8-2.4 micrometers) spectroscopy together with new photoionisation models. H2 emission lines are systematically narrower than narrow-line region (NLR) lines, suggesting that the two are, very likely, kinematically disconnected. The new models and emission-line ratios show that the thermal excitation plays an important role not only in active galactic nuclei but also in star forming galaxies. The importance of the thermal excitation in star forming galaxies may be associated with the presence of supernova remnants close to the region emitting H2 lines. This hypothesis is further supported by the similarity between the vibrational and rotational temperatures of H2. We confirm that the diagram involving the line ratios H2 2.121/Br_gamma and [Fe II] 1.257/Pa_beta is an efficient tool for separating emission-line objects according to their dominant type of activity. We suggest new limits to the line ratios in order to discriminate between the different types of nuclear activity.

description: The task of expert finding has been getting increasing attention in information retrieval literature. However, the current state-of-the-art is still lacking in principled approaches for combining different sources of evidence in an optimal way. This paper explores the usage of learning to rank methods as a principled approach for combining multiple estimators of expertise, derived from the textual contents, from the graph-structure with the citation patterns for the community of experts, and from profile information about the experts. Experiments made over a dataset of academic publications, for the area of Computer Science, attest for the adequacy of the proposed approaches.

description: Past research indicates that driving after cannabis use is relatively common. However, not all cannabis users are equally likely to drive after use; frequent cannabis users and frequent drivers are most at risk. It has been suggested that this is due to a perceived lack of impact of cannabis on driving ability. The current study sought to better understand the motivation to drive after recent cannabis use. A survey was used to examine the self-reported impact of cannabis use on driving ability and, further, the amount of time cannabis users wait before driving after use. A total of 562 participants were recruited. Of these, 424 completed the survey and were included for analysis. Purposive sampling was used to screen for cannabis users who were over the age of 18 and residents of Connecticut. Cannabis use frequency was found to predict the self-reported impact of both recreational and medicinal cannabis on driving ability, such that more frequent cannabis users reported less impairment. Additionally, cannabis use frequency was predictive of wait time before driving, where more frequent users reported waiting less time before driving after cannabis use. A plurality of participants reported not waiting at all before driving after using cannabis. Notably, the self-reported impact of cannabis on driving ability was not associated with wait time before driving. Cannabis users may not wait before driving even if they think it has a negative impact on their driving ability. Other factors that potentially impact driving after using cannabis warrant investigation.
Strong bounds on Onsager coefficients and efficiency for three terminal thermoelectric transport in a magnetic field

description: For thermoelectric transport in the presence of a magnetic field that breaks time-reversal symmetry, a strong bound on the Onsager coefficients is derived within a general set-up using three terminals. Asymmetric Onsager coefficients lead to a maximum efficiency substantially smaller than the Carnot efficiency reaching only η_C/4 in the limit of strong asymmetry. Related bounds are derived for efficiency at maximum power, which can become larger than the Curzon-Ahlborn value η_C/2, and for a cooling device. Our approach reveals that in the presence of reversible currents the standard analysis based on the positivity of entropy production is incomplete without considering the role of current conservation explicitly.

Sparsity for science

description: Sparsity is commonly produced from model compression (i.e., pruning), which eliminates unnecessary parameters. Beyond the improved resource efficiency, sparsity also serves as an important tool to model the underlying low dimensionality of neural networks, for understanding their generalization, optimization dynamics, implicit regularization, expressivity, and robustness. Meanwhile, appropriate sparsity-aware priors assist deep neural networks to achieve significantly enhanced performances on algorithms and systems. This dissertation studies it from two intertwined perspectives, (i) efficient and reliable sparsity and (ii) the sparsity for science. In the first part of this thesis (chapters 2 and 3), a few efforts that are devoted to improving resource efficiency and few-shot generalization of machine learning (ML) algorithms/systems, are presented. Particularly, we introduce a kind of high-quality sparsity capable of universally transferring across diverse downstream tasks, which amortizes the massive cost of sparsity finding and provides an efficient alternative to its dense counterpart without performance degradation. Moreover, we show implicit regularization effects of the structured prior encoded in sparse neural networks, as demonstrated by the substantial data-efficiency improvements in image generation. In the second part of this thesis (chapters 4 and 5), we exploit adequate forms of sparsity in two challenging interdisciplinary scientific problems: (1) Protein Engineering. We develop sparsity-regularized deep learning pipelines to tackle the issues of data scarcity and the distribution discrepancy among diverse proteins, to better model protein's thermostability and suggest positive mutations. (2) Quantum Computing. To reduce the negative effects of massive quantum noises from redundant quantum gates and poor circuit designs, we leverage dynamic sparse exploration to produce lightweight and noise-resistant quantum circuits, closing the performance gap between quantum simulation and realistic QC hardware.

description: A new type of deformation for microscopic laser disks, the \textit{equiangular spiral deformation} is proposed. First a short review of the geometry of light paths in equiangular spirals in the language of real two-dimensional geometric calculus is given. Second, the constituting equations for \textit{closed paths} inside equiangular spirals are derived. Third, their numerical solution is performed and found to yield two generic types of closed light paths. \textit{Degenerate} closed paths that exist over large intervals of the deformation parameter, and \textit{nondegenerate} closed paths which only exist over relatively small deformation parameter intervals spanning less than 1% of the nondegenerate intervals. Fourth, amongst the nondegenerate paths a \textit{stable asymmetric bow-tie} shaped light trajectory was found.

description: Driving is pivotal to successful aging, yet older people may need to adapt their driving to changes associated with aging or transition to driving retirement at some stage. However, most older people are reluctant to discuss or plan for changes to their future mobility. This study describes formative research to inform a social marketing campaign to promote the “DRIVING AND STAYING INDEPENDENT” resource assisting older drivers to make informed decisions about timely changes to their driving. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 drivers aged between 67 and 84 years living in the state of NSW, Australia. A discussion guide based on social marketing principles was used to explore the perspectives and experiences of older drivers seeking health and driving information. Thematic analysis was conducted on the interview data. Succinct, clear messages with a clear call to action were identified as essential features of social marketing campaigns targeting older drivers. Realistic portrayals of older people in marketing material are important in engaging the audience. Older drivers preferred positive messages that emphasize the relevance of the product to them. Trusted and reputable sources were of utmost importance when seeking health and driving information. Traditional channels such as TV and radio remain the dominant media consumed by the older participants, however, digital resources are being used increasingly. This study provides important insights for an evidence-based social marketing campaign promoting the “DRIVING AND STAYING INDEPENDENT” resource to older drivers. The findings add to the limited literature on campaigns targeting older adults and may prove valuable for promoting other issues relevant to older adults. Campaigns targeting older drivers should consider selecting clear messages, demonstrating relevance to the audience, using trustworthy sources and selecting channels used by older adults.

description: Solar atmosphere is a single system unified by the presence of large-scale magnetic fields. Topological changes in magnetic fields that occur in one place may have consequences for coronal heating and eruptions for other, even remote locations. Coronal magnetic fields also play role in transport of magnetic helicity from Sun's subphotosphere/upper convection zone to the interplanetary space. We discuss observational evidence pertinent to some aspects of the solar corona being a global interconnected system, i.e., large-scale coronal heating due to new flux emergence, eruption of chromospheric filament resulting from changes in magnetic topology triggered by new flux emergence, sunspots rotation as manifestation of transport of helicity through the photosphere, and potential consequences of re-distribution of energy from solar luminosity to the dynamo for solar cycle variations of solar irradiance.

description: We present a multi-purpose genetic algorithm, designed and implemented with GPGPU / CUDA parallel computing technology. The model was derived from our CPU serial implementation, named GAME (Genetic Algorithm Model Experiment). It was successfully tested and validated on the detection of candidate Globular Clusters in deep, wide-field, single band HST images. The GPU version of GAME will be made available to the community by integrating it into the web application DAMEWARE (DAta Mining Web Application REsource (http://dame.dsf.unina.it/beta_info.html), a public data mining service specialized on massive astrophysical data. Since genetic algorithms are inherently parallel, the GPGPU computing paradigm leads to a speedup of a factor of 200x in the training phase with respect to the CPU based version.

description: Rear-impact electronic cases were reviewed for serious injury to rear-seated children and adults to identify mechanisms of injury and consider priorities, countermeasures and safety concepts. 1997-2015 NASS-CDS and 2017-2020 CISS electronic cases were analyzed for serious injury (MAIS 3+F) to rear-seated children 0-14 yo (years old) and adults 15+ yo in rear impacts. 31 children and 43 adults were identified with serious injury. 86.0% of child injury was related to intrusion of rear structures with injury by direct force (55.3%), compression into front interior (27.5%) or acceleration into impact (3.2%). 14.0% of injury was not related to intrusion with front-seatback rotation (12.3%) or direct force (1.7%). Only 45.1 ± 17.6% of injured children were properly restrained. 68.0% of adult injury was related to intrusion of rear structures with injury by direct force (46.2%), compression into front interior (15.3%) and acceleration into impact (6.4%). 21.6% of injury was not related to intrusion with front seatback rotation (2.5%) or direct force (19.1%). 10.4% was from ejection and ground impact without seatbelt use. Only 17.8 ± 7.5% of injured adults were restrained. Priorities, countermeasure and concepts were considered to improve occupant protection in rear impacts: 1) new rear impact test with the IIHS high-hood barrier offset to the rear at 55 mph to reduce rear-seat intrusion, 2) stepped-up campaigns for proper child seat selection and use, particularly for infants and toddlers <2 yo and adult use of seatbelts in rear seats, 3) adoption of FMVSS 201L to reduce head injury risks of children impacting the rear interior below the beltline, 4) improved front seats by shifting restraining forces from the seatback to the cushion frame with an anti-ramping guide that retains the pelvis on the seat and reduces seatback rotation, 5) changes in front seatbelts to provide early restraint of occupant movement by a rear-impact pretensioner that moves the lap-belt anchors and gives a favorable angle for early lap-belt restraint or a rear wrap-around lap belt so the occupant moves into the belt in a rear impact, 6) implementation of kinematic controls on front-occupant movement that reduces ramping in severe rear impacts, 7) guarding the area around rear-seated child with an after-market ring structure that maintains space around the child and blocks rearward rotation of the front seatback and 8)-25) recommendations. The primary mechanism for injury to rear-seated children and adults is intrusion, often without appropriate occupant restraint. There are priorities to improve protection by reducing intrusion, guarding the area around children, shifting front-occupant loads to the cushion frame and improving occupant restraints.
Shock dynamics of strong imploding cylindrical and spherical shock waves with non-ideal gas effects

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: In this paper, the generalized analytical solution for one dimensional adiabatic flow behind the strong imploding shock waves propagating in a non-ideal gas is obtained by using the geometrical shock dynamics theory. The equation of state for non-ideal gas as given by Landau and Lifshitz and the generalized shock jump relations derived by Anand are taken into consideration to explore the effects due to an increase in (i) the propagation distance from the centre of convergence, (ii) the non-idealness parameter and, (iii) the adiabatic index, on the shock velocity, pressure, density, particle velocity, sound speed, adiabatic compressibility and the change in entropy across the shock front. The findings provided a clear picture of whether and how the non-idealness parameter and the adiabatic index affect the flow field behind the strong imploding shock front.

description: Work zone speed is one of the most important factors in road construction safety management. This work presents a computer vision based technique designed to measure lane-specific individual vehicle speed using existing traffic monitoring cameras and computers. The resulted speeds support the influence analysis of factors including traffic control, lane positions, and construction activity. Object detection (YOLOv5) and tracking (Deep-SORT) algorithms are combined to track the vehicles. In particular, 21 days’ worth of road construction videos are collected from a pole-mounted traffic monitoring camera operated by the Texas A&M University Transportation Services. Based on the object detection results, a novel construction activity inference technique is developed to approximate the times when construction workers are present. Based on this time separation, the vehicle speeds with and without the presence of construction activity are compared. The proposed framework is able to measure speeds with an error ranging from 0 to 6.4 kilometers per hour (KPH). Detailed analysis of this video data suggests that traffic control with barrels in the median work zone lowers the average speed (for all vehicles) by 15 KPH. The lane adjacent to the work zone also has higher speed variation than the other lanes. The construction activity speed comparisons show when the traffic is slow (possibly traffic after a red light), the difference is statistically significant with a p-value ranging from 0.01 to 0.03. When the traffic is fast (possibly traffic encountering a green signal as they approached the nearby intersection) construction activity has no significant effect on the work zone speeds. The proposed CV technique is a reliable and cheap method to measure lane-specific work zone speeds. The derived measurements support detailed safety analysis. Other than work zone speeds, the proposed technique can also be used for regular traffic speed monitoring.
