title: Understanding the National Science Foundation CAREER Award Proposal Genre: A Rhetorical, Ethnographic, and System Perspective
Creators: name: Christensen, David M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2011

description: With tightening university budgets, never before has the activity level of research grant proposal writing been more intense. With increased proposal numbers, including for the National Science Foundation's (NSF) prestigious CAREER award, has also come increased competition and decreased funding rates. This dissertation has searched for successful and unsuccessful characteristics from funded and unfunded CAREER proposals.  The research focused on a study of two key subjects: 1) a corpus of 20 texts that included 12 funded proposals and 8 unfunded proposals from across NSF programs, and 2) an ethnographic analysis comprised from interviews with 14 NSF program officers (PO) from varying programs. Coding elements with the texts to uncover topical chains of content, rhetorical, and document design strategies revealed sound rhetorical moves and rhetorical mistakes. The study also illustrated evidence of adherence to or neglect of NSF-mandated writing/formatting conventions as connected to the likelihood of receiving funding. Moreover, the study revealed conventions that have developed for the genre that are not prescribed by NSF but that, nevertheless, seem to be expected.  Through genre field analysis, the study's interviews with program officers (PO) revealed a system of genre-agents and player-agents that interact together in a highly rhetorical and social system. This system, comprised of locales in which a multitude of play scenarios can be enacted to exert influence, operates within fairly exact rules of play. Such rules may be published by NSF or simply be "understood," yet principal investigators (PI) are held accountable for them regardless.  The ethnography created from interviews with POs revealed multiple genre field elements (e.g., genre- and player-agents, transformative locales, play scenarios, penalty conditions) as well as common mistakes and best practices. A complete mapping of the CAREER award proposal preparation, submission, and review process resulted from the study, which mapping has offered insightful strategies to expand PI (and other agents') influence on the funding process.  The dissertation concluded by offering investigators a step-by-step process to identify and map the elements of the proposal genre field in which they operate.

title: Turbulence Modeling of Strongly Heated Internal Pipe Flow Using Large Eddy Simulation
Creators: name: Hradisky, Michal
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2011

description: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of three Large Eddy Simulation (LES) subgrid scale (SGS) models on a strongly heated, low Mach number upward gas flow in a vertical pipe with forced convection. The models chosen for this study were the Smagorinsky-Lilly Dynamic model (SLD), the Kinetic Energy Transport model (KET), and the Wall-Adaptive Local-Eddy viscosity model (WALE). The used heating rate was sufficiently large to cause properties to vary significantly in both the radial and streamwise directions. All simulations were carried out using the commercial software FLUENT.
The effect of inlet turbulence generation techniques was considered as well. Three inlet turbulence generation techniques were compared, namely, the Spectral Synthesizer Method (SSM), the Vortex Method (VM), and the Generator (GEN) technique. A user-defined function (UDF) was written to implement the GEN technique into the solver; the SSM and VM techniques were already build-in. All simulation and solver settings were validated by performing computational simulations of isothermal fully developed pipe flow and results were compared to available experimental and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) data.
For isothermal boundary conditions, among the three inlet turbulence generation techniques, the GEN technique produced results which best matched the experimental and DNS results. All three LES SGS models performed equally well when coupled with the GEN technique for the study of isothermal pipe flow. However, all models incorrectly predicted the behavior of radial and circumferential velocity fluctuations near the wall and the GEN technique proved to be the most computationally expensive. For simulations with longer computational domain, the effect of the inlet turbulence generation technique diminishes. However, results suggest that both the SLD and KET models need shorter computational domains to recover proper LES behavior when coupled with the VM technique in comparison to the WALE SGS model with the same turbulence inlet generation technique.
For high heat flux simulations all SGS models were coupled with the VM technique to decrease the computational effort to obtain statistically steady-state solution. For comparative purposes, one simulation was carried out using the WALE and GEN techniques. All simulations equally significantly underpredicted the streamwise temperature distribution along the pipe wall as well as in the radial directions at various streamwise locations. These effects are attributed to the overpredicted streamwise velocity components and incorrect behavior of both the radial and circumferential velocity components in the near wall region for all subgrid scale models.
Three Possible Origins for the Gas Layer on GJ 1214b

description: We present an analysis of the bulk composition of the MEarth transiting super Earth exoplanet GJ 1214b using planet interior structure models. We consider three possible origins for the gas layer on GJ 1214b: direct accretion of gas from the protoplanetary nebula, sublimation of ices, and outgassing from rocky material. Armed only with measurements of the planet mass (M_p=6.55+/-0.98 M_{earth}), radius (R_p=2.678+/-0.13 R_{earth}), and stellar irradiation level, our main conclusion is that we cannot infer a unique composition. A diverse range of planet interiors fits the measured planet properties. Nonetheless, GJ 1214b's relatively low average density (rho_p=1870+/-400 kg m^{-3}) means that it almost certainly has a significant gas component. Our second major conclusion is that under most conditions we consider GJ 1214b would not have liquid water. Even if the outer envelope is predominantly sublimated water ice, the envelope will likely consist of a super-fluid layer sandwiched between vapor above and plasma (electrically conductive fluid) below at greater depths. In our models, a low intrinsic planet luminosity (

description: The quantum electrodynamical vacuum polarization effects arising in the collision of a high-energy proton beam and a strong, linearly polarized laser field are investigated. The probability that laser photons merge into one photon by interacting with the proton`s electromagnetic field is calculated taking into account the laser field exactly. Asymptotics of the probability are then derived according to different experimental setups suitable for detecting perturbative and nonperturbative vacuum polarization effects. The experimentally most feasible setup involves the use of a strong optical laser field. It is shown that in this case measurements of the polarization of the outgoing photon and and of its angular distribution provide promising tools to detect these effects for the first time.

title: Therapists' and Families' Views on Family Involvement in Adolescent Residential Treatment
Creators: name: Zabriskie, Jonathan D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2011

description: This study of 24 therapists and 64 family members representing 109 adolescent residents of six residential treatment centers aimed to better understand therapists' and family members' points of view about family involvement in residential treatment for troubled adolescents. The study also provided the therapists' and family members' recommendations for family involvement in residential treatment. Findings from this mixed-methods study suggest that (a) the families from this study were involved in many different ways in their adolescents' treatment, including phone calls, visits to the treatment center, participation in therapy, and so forth; (b) there were areas in which therapists and family members agreed (e.g., whether families used phone calls as a form of contact) and areas in which they disagreed about how involved the families were in treatment and therapy (e.g., how often any family member was involved in therapy with the adolescent); and (c) the therapists and family members recommended that families should be involved in therapy but recommend some forms of involvement over others.

description: Several transiting super-Earths are expected to be discovered in the coming few years. While tools to model the interior structure of transiting planets exist, inferences about the composition are fraught with ambiguities. We present a framework to quantify how much we can robustly infer about super-Earth and Neptune-size exoplanet interiors from radius and mass measurements. We introduce quaternary diagrams to illustrate the range of possible interior compositions for planets with four layers (iron core, silicate mantles, water layers, and H/He envelopes). We apply our model to CoRoT-7b, GJ 436b, and HAT-P-11b. Interpretation of planets with H/He envelopes is limited by the model uncertainty in the interior temperature, while for CoRoT-7b observational uncertainties dominate. We further find that our planet interior model sharpens the observational constraints on CoRoT-7b's mass and radius, assuming the planet does not contain significant amounts of water or gas. We show that the strength of the limits that can be placed on a super-Earth's composition depends on the planet's density; for similar observational uncertainties, high-density super-Mercuries allow the tightest composition constraints. Finally, we describe how techniques from Bayesian statistics can be used to take into account in a formal way the combined contributions of both theoretical and observational uncertainties to ambiguities in a planet's interior composition. On the whole, with only a mass and radius measurement an exact interior composition cannot be inferred for an exoplanet because the problem is highly underconstrained. Detailed quantitative ranges of plausible compositions, however, can be found.

description: In recent years, respiratory diseases have emerged as a leading cause of mortality across the globe. In the United States alone respiratory diseases are the fourth leading cause of deaths annually. Moreover, with the rapid increase of industrialization and urbanization, the occurrences of respiratory diseases are expected to remain high with strong chances of increasing in the future. To ameliorate the epidemic of respiratory disease, it is first important to understand its underlying mechanisms. Respiratory research studies in animals have elucidated the chronological order of the pathological events and systemic responses inside the lung, but understanding the response of individual cell types inside the lung is necessary to outline the initiators and mediators of the pathological events. Many research studies have aimed to understand the behavior of individual cell types, from the lung, under different pathological conditions specific to the respiratory system. However, the cell culture systems used in most of these studies were limited by the absence of the dynamic cell growth environment present in actual lung tissues. The lung exists in a mechanically active environment, where different amounts of circumferential and longitudinal expansion and contraction occur during breathing movements. Thus, simulating the biomechanical environment in in vitro cell culture models may improve the cellular functionality and the outcome of the research studies. Moreover, the stimulation of biomechanical forces in in vitro cell cultures provides the advantage of mimicking the mechanical environment, related to different pathological conditions. In our study we used a dynamic in vitro cell culture system capable of implementing cyclic equibiaxial deformation in cell monolayers to stimulate different biomechanical environments similar to conditions inside the lung. The dynamic cell growth condition was used to determine the effects of ventilator-induced lung injury and nano-material/pollutant exposure in A549 cell cultures. Examples of such pollutants are diesel particulate matter, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and single-walled carbon nanotubes. Our results indicated that the dynamic cell growth condition specific to ventilator induced lung injury facilitated an increase in inflammatory and tissue remodeling activities in A549 cells. Under the nano-material/pollutant exposure assessment studies, the dynamic cell growth condition induced changes in inflammation and oxidative stress level which closely resembled those in in vivo studies.

description: We investigate models of molecular junctions which constitute minimal Hamiltonians to account for zero-bias-anomaly and the satellite features of inelastic transport by molecular phonons. Through nonlinear transport calculations with the imaginary-time nonequilibrium formalism, a HOMO-LUMO model with Anderson-Holstein interaction is shown to produce co-tunneling conductance peak in the vicinity of Kondo resonance which is mediated by a re-emergent many-body resonance assisted by phonon excitations at bias equal to the phonon frequency. Destruction of the resonance leads to negative-differential-resistance in the sequential tunneling regime.

description: In aerospace telemetry, there is usually a large Doppler frequency offset, and the receiver QPSK demodulator cannot perform carrier recovery. So the large frequency offset compensation is needed. In this paper, a large frequency offset extraction method using fast Fourier transform and phase lock loop is proposed. Based on the QPSK modulation signal, a complex signal containing frequency offset information is constructed, and then the value and the sign of frequency offset is calculated by fast Fourier transform. At last, the phase error will be eliminated by PLL. The utility model has the advantages of high estimation accuracy, large capture range and short lock time. The good performance of this method for large frequency offset carrier recovery is manifested in the simulation. It can be applied to signal synchronous demodulation in satellite communication.

description: The purpose of this paper is to prove that the spectrum of the non-self-adjoint one-particle Hamiltonian proposed by J. Feinberg and A. Zee (Phys. Rev. E 59 (1999), 6433--6443) has interior points. We do this by first recalling that the spectrum of this random operator is the union of the set of $\ell^\infty$ eigenvalues of all infinite matrices with the same structure. We then construct an infinite matrix of this structure for which every point of the open unit disk is an $\ell^\infty$ eigenvalue, this following from the fact that the components of the eigenvector are polynomials in the spectral parameter whose non-zero coefficients are $\pm 1$'s, forming the pattern of an infinite discrete Sierpinski triangle.

title: Perching Using a Quadrotor with Onboard Sensing
Creators: name: Goldin, Jeremy C
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2011

description: This thesis presents an implementation of autonomous indoor perching using only onboard sensors on a low-cost, custom-built quadrotor. The perching aggressive maneuver is representative of a class of control problems for aerobatics that requires an agile and robust control system for maneuvering accurately at high speeds. Such research extends the typical functionality of micro air vehicles (MAV) from low speed and stationary observation to dynamic aerobatic transitions for broader operational capabilities including confined landings and evasive maneuvering. To achieve this, three major challenges are overcome: precise and real-time positioning, sensing of the perch and path to the perch, and control methods for robust and accurate tracking at high speeds. Navigation in unstructured, global positioning system (GPS)-denied environments is achieved using a visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm that relies on an onboard monocular camera. A secondary camera, capable of detecting infrared light sources, is used to locate the pathway for the maneuver and the perch, simulating sensing of the actual perch, for perching without prior knowledge of the location of the perch. The full physical system architecture is covered in detail, indicating the components and integration necessary to obtain effective aggressive control of an inexpensive quadrotor. The difficulties of attitude stabilization on noisy and lower-quality sensors are successfully addressed so that the air vehicle can be treated as a simple second-order system for the purposes of navigation and response to dynamic maneuvering commands. The system utilizes nested controllers for attitude stabilization, vision-based navigation, and perching guidance, with the navigation controller implemented using novel nonlinear saturation control within a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) structure. The quadrotor is therefore able to autonomously sense the perch, reach initial high speeds for obtaining rapid deceleration from aerodynamic effects, dynamically transition to a high angle of attack post-stall configuration, and make a low-speed accurate landing on an inclined surface, using only onboard sensors.

description: How does emotion change the way we perceive time? Studies have shown that we overestimate the duration of faces that express anger of fear — an effect that has been explained as due the speeding of a pacemaker that resides within an internal clock. Here, we test the idea that attending longer to facial threat leads to an overestimation of time. Seventy participants (16 male) estimated the duration of angry, fearful and neutral expressions under conditions designed to either reduce attention to time (by emphasising speedy responses) or lengthen attention to time (by emphasising accuracy). Results were modelled using Bayesian Multilevel Logistic Regression. The results replicate previous findings: speed emphasis reduced temporal sensitivity and led to both a higher overall proportion of long responses and faster reaction times. Facial threat attenuated the drop in temporal sensitivity due to speed instructions supporting the idea that people prolong attention to threat (even when they are not directly instructed to do so). We relate the findings to research into attention bias to threat and more broadly to models of perceptual decision making.

description: We show that there exists a precise kinematical notion of holography for the Euclidean warped $AdS_3$ black hole. This follows from the fact that the Euclidean warped $AdS_3$ black hole spacetime is a geometrically finite hyperbolic manifold. For such manifolds a theorem of Sullivan provides a one-to-one correspondence between the hyperbolic structure in the bulk and the conformal structure of its boundary. Using this theorem we obtain the holographic quasinormal modes for the warped $AdS_3$ black hole.

It is shown that, with the exception of one spatial dimension, MERA states are actually finitely correlated states, i.e., projected entangled pair states (PEPS) with a bond dimension independent of the system size. Hence, real-space renormalization generates states which can be encoded with local effective degrees of freedom, and MERA states form an efficiently contractible class of PEPS that obey the area law for the entanglement entropy. It is shown further that there exist other efficiently contractible schemes violating the area law.

description: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are one of the most popular nanomaterials. There has been increasing interest in the development and applications of carbon nanotubes due to their huge potential in industrial and medical applications. Recent applications of carbon nanotubes include development of scaffolds and drug delivery systems. Despite rapidly emerging applications of CNTs, little is known about the impact of CNTs on cellular processes, especially mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)'s differentiation. Also, the effects of nanoparticle exposure under different conditions on cellular responses have not been well characterized yet. To characterize the effects of CNTs on creating nanoscale scaffolds for tissue engineering, we incorporated multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs) into reconstituted type I collagen, and evaluated proliferation, differentiation, mineralization and inflammatory response of MSC on those scaffolds. MWCNTs were homogeneously distributed in collagen matrix, and strongly entrapped in collagen at the concentrations below 100 ppm. Alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity and mineralized nodules of extracellular matrix (ECM) were monitored as osteogenic differentiation markers. AP activity was significantly increased in 12 days after being replaced by differentiating media. Collagen enhanced AP activity, and MWCNT-collagen scaffolds induced additional increase in AP activity. The MSC released a significantly higher level of AP on MWCNT-collagen scaffolds than the plastic surface did at day 16. An increasing percentage of ECM mineralization was seen at day 16 after being replaced by differentiating media in the presence of MWCNT-collagen scaffolds. This study indicated the possibility of enhancement in MSC differentiation in the MWCNT-collagen scaffolds. The increased level of differentiation markers was due to the increased stiffness of the scaffolds for MSC. Our data indicated that the collagen-MWCNT scaffolds might have the potential application to create nanoscale scaffold materials for tissue engineering.  To illustrate the effects of interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression in human alveolar epithelial cells (A549) under various exposure conditions of CNT, we measured the level of IL-8 expression in the presence and absence of serum following exposure of SWCNTs. The results demonstrated that the IL-8 expression was enhanced in the presence of serum. The IL-8 expression kept increasing at low concentration even after removing SWCNTs from the media. Further studies are required to characterize biological functions and toxicological potentials of nanomaterials.

description: We propose a method for optical nano-imaging in which the structure of a three-dimensional inhomogeneous medium may be recovered from far-field power measurements. Neither phase control of the illuminating field nor phase measurements of the scattered field are necessary. The method is based on the solution to the inverse scattering problem for a system consisting of a weakly-scattering dielectric sample and a strongly-scattering nano-particle tip. Numerical simulations are used to illustrate the results.

description: A calorimetry technique is developed to measure the energetics of an 18650 Li-ion battery in thermal
runaway. The technique uses the battery as a calorimeter with temperature and mass loss measurements to
analyze the energetics. Runaway is induced by heating of the battery. Only one battery is investigated
over a range of heating power and state of charge (SOC). The dynamics of the battery are investigated
including time events, temperature, mass lost and energies. The total energy in runaway is manifested by
the internal energy stored in the battery and the enthalpy of the ejected mass. Combustion of the ejected
gases is not studied here. Here a safety vent first causes the release of gases, then this is followed by the
more dominant ejection during runaway. Vent times decrease dramatically with heating power. The
duration of runaway decreases with the SOC, and runaway energy increases with the SOC. The total
energy measured in runaway is compared to an alternative technical to show its accuracy. The need to
assume a specific heat of the ejected mass in the current technique has an effect on accuracy. Also the
possibility of melting in runaway is not included in the current technique.

description: Non-symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterial diazotrophs closely associated with the roots of grasses probably contribute most of the new nitrogen acquired to sustain productive natural grasslands, yet their ecology is poorly understood, especially in southern Africa. We looked for genetic evidence, using qPCR and gel electrophoresis, for the presence of the bacterial nifH gene associated with the roots of four grass species (20 plants each) in a mesic grassland in South Arica, which would indicate the potential for N fixation by diazotrophs. Grasses most tolerant of low N (Aristida junciformis) were predicted to harbour the most diazotrophs, especially compared to those most responsive to fertiliser N (Eragrostis curvula). However, the nifH gene was found in all 80 root samples and did not differ in copy number between species. Sequencing of a representative sample confirmed the identity of the nifH gene. The recently burned half of the grassland had 60% more relative nifH gene copy numbers than the area burned 15 months previously, suggesting that grass growth stimulated by fire could recruit diazotrophs. Given their ubiquity and importance in the N economy of grasslands, research is required to characterise root-associated diazotroph communities, quantify their N fixation rates, and understand their environmental controls.
Numerical and Analytical Approach to the Quantum Dynamics of Two Coupled Spins in Bosonic Baths

description: The quantum dynamics of a spin chain interacting with multiple bosonic baths is described in a mixed Wigner-Heisenberg representation. The formalism is illustrated by simulating the time evolution of the reduced density matrix of two coupled spins, where each spin is also coupled to its own bath of harmonic oscillators. In order to prove the validity of the approach, an analytical solution in the Born-Markov approximation is found. The agreement between the two methods is shown.
Reassessing China’s Growing Presence in the Arctic

description: This paper intends to provide an analytical framework to interpret China’s growing presence in the Arctic from the perspective of world-system theory. I have set up the analytical framework from the following four aspects. Firstly, China’s externalizing behavior in the Arctic region is governed by the internalized law of value of the modern world-system, i.e., the endless accumulation of capital. Secondly, China has benefited and is still benefiting from the division of labor, with Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa, and most recently the Arctic serving as a relatively subordinated resource periphery. Thirdly, driven by a strong upward mobility, China has leapfrogged the periphery and semi-periphery and gained a semi-core position with an upward trend towards the core, by offering a favorable external environment to the Arctic (invitation to promote). Lastly, since the world-economy is currently in a Kondratieff B-phase, China, as an emerging global core power, is logically dedicated to the relocation of productive activity and the probability of alternative profitable outlets, where the Arctic is highly compatible. Keywords: China, Arctic, world-system theory, endless accumulation of capital, division of labor, upward mobility, Kondratieff B-phase
