description:
Noble metal nanoparticles have been studied extensively as heterogeneous catalysts for electrocatalytic and thermal reactions. In particular, the support material for the catalytic species is known to play a role in influencing the geometric and electronic properties of the active site as well as its catalytic performance. Polycrystalline gold electrodes have been used as a support to modify the electrocatalytic behavior of adsorbed molecular species. Here, we have studied two electrocatalytic processes- the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), using Au nanoparticle-based catalysts. Transition metal dichalcogenides are well-known HER catalysts that show structure-sensitive catalytic activity. In particular, undercoordinated sulfur sites at the edges of bulk materials as well as amorphous clusters and oligomers tend to show the highest reactivity. The hydrogen adsorption energy of MoSx nanoclusters can be further tuned through the metallic support. Here, we synthesize colloidal Au@MoS42-, Au@WS42-and Au@MoS42--WS42- using a biphasic ligand-exchange method. The MoS42- and WS42- complexes show higher HER activity when supported on Au nanoparticles than on to a carbon control, illustrating the electronic role played by the support material. In the second project, Au nanoparticle cores are utilized as supports for Pd submonolayer and monolayer surfaces in order to catalyze the two-electron reduction of O2 to generate hydrogen peroxide. Bulk surfaces of Pt and Pd are excellent catalysts for the four-electron reduction of O2 to H2O. In order to achieve high selectivity for H2O2, we postulate that the ensemble geometry of the Pd surface must be reduced to small islands or single atoms based on literature studies that have shown that large Pd ensembles are required for O–O bond cleavage. In this study, we synthesize several submonolayers surface coverages of Au@Pd core-shell nanoparticles using a biphasic ligand-exchange method. As the Pd coverage decreases from monolayer to submonolayer, the peroxide selectivity rises but is accompanied by an increase in catalytic overpotential. The highest peroxide selectivity was observed for 0.1 layers of Pd on Au, which likely exhibits the highest fraction of isolated atom and small cluster geometric ensembles of Pd.

description: During the U.S. 2019 measles outbreak, four states succeeded in removing a vaccine exemption, ten states proposed removing a vaccine exemption but were unsuccessful, and seven states proposed adding a new vaccine exemption. This dissertation examined what public policy components enabled some states to remove vaccine exemptions while others were not able to remove a vaccine exemption or add an exemption. This research used a mixed methods approach and identified components from five public policy theories of change (punctuated equilibrium, narrative framework, policy diffusion, multiple streams theory, and advocacy coalition). Data were collected to examine correlations on seven components, which included focusing event, diffusion of policy changes, agenda setting, group monopolies, framing of the problem, bounded rationality, and venue shopping. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 11 public health officials and legislators.
description: Key findings from this research include:
description: • There was a correlation between the number of measles cases and whether a state was able to remove an exemption.
description: • Bipartisanship has decreased in the last 10 years, and exemption removal bills that had bipartisan support had a higher passage rate than bills that were solely sponsored by a single party.
description: • How local media framed the problem and the solution varied between states that removed exemptions and those that did not remove/add an exemption. States that removed exemptions the problem most identified was local cases and the solution most identified urged people to get vaccinated.
description: • States that were identified as the problem by other states’ local media were more likely to remove exemptions.
description: • States that had a Democrat governor and Democrat controlled legislative bodies, had a higher passage rate over states that were controlled by both parties or were controlled by Republicans
description: • There are signs the vaccination debate will move to new venues.
description: To examine why some states were successful/unsuccessful when proposing to add or remove vaccine exemption policy, it was important to bring in multiple public policy components to understand this multi-faceted issue. This research begins to establish a framework that the researcher will apply to COVID and other disease outbreaks.

description: Despite the absence of specific treatises or systematic analyses on the dialogue in the Italian Literature of the 18th century, a theory of this ‘genre’ can be outlined through the study of the paratexts. In the prefaces and the dedications of several dialogues, in fact, there are reflections focused on the use of this literary form: by connecting these fragments of poetics, it is possible to follow the develop¬ment of the Renaissance dialogue theory and, at the same time, to explore a new tradition.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF REPAIR TECHNIQUES FOR DETERIORATED END REGIONS OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BRIDGE GIRDERS
Creators: name: Rich, William
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Structural engineering

description: Due to harsh environmental conditions, the deterioration of prestressed concrete bridge girders is a commonly observed phenomenon in Indiana and much of the Midwest. Concordantly, one widely observed damage scenario is deteriorated end regions of prestressed concrete girders. Damaged or failed expansion joints expose prestressed concrete girder end regions to chloride-laden water, resulting in a corrosive environment in which reinforcement section loss and concrete spalling can occur. For bridges experiencing this type of deterioration, action is needed to ensure the structure remains safe and serviceable. As such, an experimental program was developed to investigate the effectiveness of three repair techniques in restoring the structural behavior of prestressed concrete bridge girders with end region deterioration. The three examined repair techniques are (i) an externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) system, (ii) a near-surface-mounted (NSM) FRP system, and (iii) a concrete supplemental diaphragm. Additionally, installation procedures for the three end region repair techniques were developed. Results, conclusions, and recommendations from the experimental program are presented to help advise best practices for implementing end region repair techniques in the field.

description: Abstract

The popularization of Mike Ejeagha's long-released song titled “Gwo gwo gwo Ngwo” in recent times has opened up new vistas of compositional research interests among Nigerian musicians and musicologists from variant perspectives. The song’s catchy rhythm and engaging lyrics, spiced with comic folklore, radiate a unique centripetal force of attraction among many performers and consumers. Nigerian TV journalist Rufai Oseni's influential platform on Arise Television helped to throw this work into the mainstream media consciousness, prompting many dance clubs as well as politico-social gatherings to romanticize with it as a brilliant artifact of cultural enthusiasm and intellectual engagement. Using a research-compositional method, this paper capitalizes and draws on the theme of political deceit in the song, mining the extant melodic and harmonic resources in it to generate a political satire and discourse that is both consistent with and contemporaneous to the present-day Nigerian situation.
Il castrato come figura retorica (trad. it. di Tommaso Sabbatini)

Year: 2018
Subjects: Castrato; Rhetoric; Farinelli; Virtuosity; Ornatus

description: This essay argues that the fundamentally rhetorical nature of the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century aria was embodied in the figure of the castrato, who delivered an idealized form of Ciceronian oratory designed to move audiences using the precepts of invenzione, variazione, and decoro.  As singers, courtiers, and teachers, castrati were exemplary orators, schooled in oratorical ideals and inculcated in oratorical modes of musical persuasion. Yet they were also precariously positioned. While oratorical brilliance was demanded of them in a form we might conceive as musical ornatus, often manifested in exceptionally elaborate figuration and ornamentation (notably in the arias of Farinelli), such flights of ornatus also provoked recurrent criticism as breaches of the oratorical principle of decorum, especially toward the later eighteenth century.

description: The National Theater founded by King Stanisław August in 1765, at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, performed numerous novelties in its repertoire. From the beginning of the 1790s, W. Bogusławski – three times manager, actor and director of the public theater in Warsaw, presents dramas on exotic subjects. Their initial aesthetic-sensational function changes after the last partition of Poland in 1795. In the years 1799-1814, Bogusławski presents dramas that show the struggle of the Inca with Spanish invaders as a metaphor of the then-existing situation of Poles oppressed by Russia, Prussia and Austria.

description: Charge-spin conversion phenomena such as the spin Hall effect allow for the excitation of magnons in a magnetic layer by passing an electric current in an adjacent nonmagnetic conductor. We demonstrate that this current-induced modification of the magnon density generates an additional nonlinear longitudinal and transverse magnetoresistance for every magnetoresistance that depends on the magnetization. Using harmonic measurements, we evidence that these magnon creation-annihilation magnetoresistances dominate the second harmonic longitudinal and transverse resistance of thin Y$_{3}$Fe$_{5}$O$_{12}$/Pt bilayers. Our results apply to both insulating and metallic magnetic layers, elucidating the dependence of the magnetoresistance on applied current and magnetic field for a broad variety of systems excited by spin currents.

In the core of the Baroque era of the Holy Roman Empire, hundreds of buildings were frescoed with allegories of the four continents. Their substantive statements range from religious missionary goals to the presentation of the history of civilization. Often the depictions are crowned with Apollo, who represents world wisdom in this context.

DETECTION AND TRACKING OF PEDESTRIANS USING DOPPLER LIDAR

Subjects: Geomatic engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Pedestrian detection and tracking plays an essential role in autonomous vehicles and mobile service robots. This thesis presents a novel solution to pedestrian detection and tracking for urban scenarios based on Doppler LiDAR that records both position and velocity of the targets. The workflow consists of two stages. In the detection stage, the input point cloud is first segmented to form clusters frame by frame. A subsequent re-clustering process is introduced to further separate pedestrians close to each other. While a simple speed classifier is capable of extracting most of the moving pedestrians, a supervised machine learning-based classifier is adopted to detect pedestrians with insignificant radial velocity. In the tracking stage, pedestrian’s state is estimated by a Kalman filter, which uses the speed information to measure the pedestrian’s dynamics. Based on the similarity between the predicted and detected states of pedestrians, a greedy algorithm is adopted to associate the trajectories with the detection results. The presented detection and tracking methods are tested on two datasets collected in San Francisco, California by a mobile Doppler LiDAR system. The results of pedestrian detection show that the proposed two-step classifier can improve the detection performance, particularly for detecting pedestrians far from the sensor. For both datasets, the speed information increases the F1-score and the recall by 10% and 20%, respectively. Moreover, the quantitative evaluation of tracking results shows the Kalman filter with speed information is able to enhance the accuracy of the position estimation and improve the multiple object tracking accuracy (MOTA) by 5% for both datasets.

description: The debate, which began in the 18th-century, is around the question: ‘What is monument?’. For the neoclassicists, monuments are material ruins of the Greek and Roman civilizations: triumphal arches, theatres, bridges, aqueducts and all that remained in Europe from the classical period. The neoclassical restoration season built the foundations of a new discipline, attributing monumental value to ancient ruins in a non-episodic but systematic way. The next restoration is only about extending the concept of monument. This essay  discusses the domain of application of the restoration: from this period onwards medieval, baroque and, more recently, the nineteenth century and early twentieth century factories are considered monuments.

description: We present a comprehensive set of harmonic resistance measurements of the dampinglike (DL) and fieldlike (FL) torques in Pt/CoFeB, Pt/Co, W/CoFeB, W/Co, and YIG/Pt bilayers complemented by measurements of the DL torque using the magneto-optical Kerr effect and calibrated by nitrogen vacancy magnetometry on the same devices. The magnon creation-annihilation magnetoresistances depend strongly on temperature and on the magnetic and transport properties of each bilayer, affecting the estimate of both the DL and FL torque. The DL torque, the most important parameter for applications, is overestimated by a factor of 2 in W/CoFeB and by one order of magnitude in YIG/Pt when not accounting for the magnonic contribution to the planar Hall resistance. We further show that the magnonic contribution can be quantified by combining measurements of the nonlinear longitudinal and transverse magnetoresistances, thus providing a reliable method to measure the spin-orbit torques in different material systems.
VALUE OF SYSTEMATIC THORACIC ULTRASONOGRAPHY INFORMATION FOR DETECTING BOVINE RESPIRATORY DISEASE (BRD) RELATED LUNG DAMAGE IN CROSSBRED DAIRY CALVES

description: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the value of systematic thoracic ultrasonography (TUS) for detecting bovine respiratory disease (BRD) related lung damage in Holstein x Angus crossbred calves. Because the dairy industry is known to operate on small profit margins, it is important to assess the potential of this technology to help prevent the main source of financial loss related to calf production that dairy producers face. Studies have shown that BRD may impact nearly a fourth of all dairy calves before weaning. In an industry that is currently growing and evolving, it is important that producers have all the necessary resources to operate efficiently. TUS is known to be a quick and accurate predictor of BRD related lung damage, but this study focuses on the financial implications of BRD related lung damage on calf growth and efficiency—average daily gain (ADG) and milk-to-gain (M:G)—and the value of implementing TUS information to make sound management decisions. TUS along with BRD diagnosis information give producers a unique perspective on future growth and development of calves and could be part of the solution to promote larger profit margins for dairy producers. We find that the value associated with TUS and BRD diagnosis information is between $0.88/head and $13.44/head and depends on BRD incidence rate, feed price, and feeder price. Depending on the cost to the farm, it may be beneficial to implement this as a way to manage BRD damage, which we know to influence calf growth and efficiency.
The role of arts and culture in the Colombian peacebuilding process

description: Recent research on arts and culture has shown that artistic and cultural practices are a triggerfor social transformations towards peacebuilding (Lederach, 2005; Liebmann, 1996; LeBaron,2011). Colombia is ending a fifty-year-long conflict, and an opportunity exists for arts andculture to play an essential role in rebuilding memory, social relations, community, bringingpeople together, raising awareness about past suffering and promoting healing.This thesis explores the role that arts and cultural interventions can play in the aftermath of theColombian conflict, and the opportunities and limitations of applying arts-based practices incommunities dealing with its legacy. Notably, this thesis is intended to assist and informpolicymakers and those making funding decisions of the social impact of arts and culture,providing a review of theoretical debates alongside evidence of current arts and culturalprogrammes that are taking place in Colombia.In order to examine the role of arts and cultural interventions in peacebuilding efforts, twospecific research questions guide the study: i) what role do arts and cultural initiatives play infacilitating social cohesion and community rebuilding in communities dealing with the legacyof the Colombian conflict? and ii) what design and delivery models are most effective inproducing beneficial peacebuilding outcomes through arts and culture? Utilising interpretativephenomenological analysis (IPA), along with participant observation of two arts and culturalprojects in Colombia (Casa Kolacho in Medellín, and Sensory Expedition in Montes de María),this study illustrates how these interventions can address and ameliorate the effects of conflicton people in different geographical settings. The findings of this study demonstrate thatcollective cultural activities can further promote the building of social capital, providingopportunities for people to interact and strength social networks that facilitate mutualunderstanding and dialogue, and can also encourage a sense of belonging and place identitythat contributes to long term peacebuilding process. However, the study also reveals the needto develop evaluation and impact studies to measure the peacebuilding outcomes of arts-basedand cultural projects, in order to strengthen their case for funding. I demonstrate that there area range of conditions that are essential for constructive conflict resolution: the establishmentof a culture of peace, based on respectful relationships, and the development of collectivecultural practices, which must be set according to the context and local reality of the area ofconflict. The study concludes by arguing that paying greater attention to cultural grassroots initiativesand participatory art offers a hitherto largely untapped opportunity for peacebuilding.Nevertheless, any decisions with regard to its deployment will inevitably depend on theinteraction between the policymakers and the communities affected by the armed conflict.

Wireless Powered Communication over Inductively Coupled Circuits

description: Wireless powered communication (WPC) is an emerging paradigm where wireless devices are powered over the air while exchanging information with them. This technology is attractive for various wireless applications, including classical radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems, implantable sensors, environmental sensing as found in agriculture and forestry, and simultaneous charging and telemetry communications for electric vehicles. While recent studies have shown that inductive coupling provides a more energy-efficient and robust channel for short and middle-range wireless transmission, most of the previous analyses on WPC have been limited to far-field transmission models. To this end, this work provides a comprehensive framework to design and analyze WPC over inductively coupled circuits. We consider three problems, namely, wireless power transfer (WPT), simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), and wireless powered communication network (WPCN) using multiple coupled coils. Each configuration is modeled by an abstract circuit model in which various effects, including mutual coupling and parasitic elements, are captured by a small number of measurable parameters. This technique allows us to not only eliminate the need for solving the circuit but also apply well-known signal processing techniques such as beamforming and channel estimation to inductively coupled models. For each of the three models, we derive the properties of the optimal source signal. In addition, we propose methods to design the load impedance of WPCN by taking into account the nonlinear effects due to impedance mismatches in the circuits.

Politics of Space and Pathways of Resistance: Contested National Identities in Landscapes of Turkey
Creators: name: Clendenen, Rebecca Joy

description: All theories of national development attempt to explain how diverse communities with disparate interests consolidate into larger people groups under the banner of a new, shared political identity. The ability of nations to transcend local interests directed most theoretical attention away from the local context. However, local social environments are essential mediators in the character of state-society relations, and the interactions that members of the nation have in the routines of daily life must be instrumental in shaping the national imagination. This study examines the interaction between the public and the state in the context of Turkey and the Justice and Development Party’s new nation-building project. Taking a hyperlocal perspective, I compare the politics of the urban landscape in two of Istanbul’s districts- one in the city center, the other in the periphery. One district has centuries of historical memory, and the other was established only in the last several decades. One is an opposition stronghold; the other has overwhelmingly and consistently favored the JDP and its vision for a New Turkey.
 My findings show that the state, limited in its capacity to penetrate the urban environment, must strategically choose public spaces to stage its spectacle and production. The urban landscape is the most concrete domain of the public sphere. So, these strategic calculations exhibit the structure of the national contest, the rules of the game, and the privileged vision and interests within them. I then look at the conflict within this domain and find that the public has a remarkable agency to resist state interventions even when the opposition has little institutional power. Perhaps most importantly, the local context produces the transcendent nation when the public begins building broad coalitions to contend with the state's power. The product is an account of that ever-present variable in the theories of nations – the local – and how it is an ever more significant contingency in the building of modern nations.

description: Chiral materials lacking mirror symmetry can exhibit unconventional spin-orbit fields, including fully momentum-aligned radial Rashba fields as seen in twisted van der Waals homobilayers. We theoretically study Cooper-pair transfer in superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor Josephson junctions with crossed (tangential and radial) interfacial Rashba fields. We find that their interplay leads to what we call the unconventional supercurrent diode effect (SDE), where supercurrent rectification occurs even with collinear (with respect to the current) barrier magnetization, not possible for conventional spin-orbit fields. This SDE, distinct from conventional Rashba-induced effects on Cooper-pair momenta, arises from the spin precession in the magnetic barrier. We propose it as a sensitive probe of chiral spin textures.

ACCESSING CEREBRAL HEMODYNAMIC WITH MULTIMODAL IMAGING

description: The human brain is sensitive to stimuli from the outside world. Those stimuli could induce physiological and neuronal reactions in the brain (e.g. neuron firing and blood flow changes). Those reactions can be measured by several neuroimaging modalities and recorded as physiological and neuronal signals. Interestingly, current studies tend to remove the physiological signal from the brain (e.g., respiration) to focus on the neuronal signal. However, physiological signals in the brain contain some useful information. For example, previous research showed that the averaged signal in the brain, which was commonly removed as physiological noise, can track cerebral blood flow (CBF). Also, by giving physiological stimuli, we can expose hidden deficits in the brain in some cases. Therefore, understanding both physiological signals in the brain and physiological effects on the brain is important. The goal of my study is to investigate physiological signal characterizes various physiological stimuli in the brain using multimodal imaging. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) were applied in the following studies. In the first study, the physiological parameters were exploited from fMRI scans, which were recorded after a person drinking coffee. The results derived from fMRI scans illustrated that caffeine decreases the blood vessels' size and increased the blood flow speed in blood vessels in the brain. In the second study, vasoactive stress tests (i.e., hypercapnia, the elevated partial pressure of arterial CO2 (PaCO2)) were introduced as a dominant physiological stimulus (caused an increase of CBF) and measured by fMRI and NIRS concurrently. The results indicated that the cerebral and extracerebral reactivity to elevated PaCO2 depended on the rate of the CO2 increase. Later, my third study comparing hyperoxia (elevated partial pressure of arterial O2 (PaO2)) and hypercapnia effects on the brain measured by fMRI and NIRS. Since NIRS measured both oxy- and deoxy- hemoglobin concentrations, NIRS signals have advantages to differentiate hypercapnia and hyperoxia effects on the brain compared to fMRI. To further understand physiological signals in the brain, coupling between hemodynamic and the inflow effect of CSF dynamic was investigated using fMRI in my fourth study.
SOLIDIFICATION BEHAVIORS OF PROEUTECTIC AL3SC AND AL-AL3SC EUTECTIC IN HYPEREUTECTIC AL-SC UNDERCOOLED MELT

description: The lack of a thorough understanding of the solidification behaviors of the proeutectic Al3Sc and the Al-Al3Sc eutectic in a hypereutectic Al-Sc alloy stimulates the present dissertation. The major findings for the single-phase growth of the proeutectic Al3Sc is summarized as follows: At a low cooling rate (~1 ºC·s-1), the proeutectic Al3Sc phase’s formation was governed by the lateral growth, exposing six flat {100} facets. At an intermediate cooling rate (~400 ºC·s-1), the proeutectic Al3Sc grew in a dendritic manner, with well-defined backbones extending in eight <111> directions and paraboloidal dendrite tips, although the dendrite tips and side-branches turned into faceted steps at a late growth stage,when the lateral growth prevailed. At a high cooling rate (~1000 ºC·s-1), the proeutectic Al3Sc primarily crystallized into an entirely seaweed-structured particle, which was composed of interior compact seaweeds and exterior fractal seaweeds. In order to verify the proposed dendritic and seaweed growth mechanisms for the proeutectic Al3Sc, various morphological stability criteria were used, and fair agreement between the observed and the estimated characteristic length scales was reached.On the Al-Al3Sc eutectic side, it was found that a rod-typed Al3Sc eutectic phase prevalently existed in an as-cast hypereutectic Al-Sc alloy that solidified via both slow cooling in air (~1 ºC·s−1) and rapid cooling in a wedge-shaped copper mold (up to ~3000 ºC·s−1). Al-Al3Sc eutectic dendrites were identified within a narrow region near the edge of the wedge. The eutectic dendrites had an equiaxed dendritic contour and a rod eutectic structure inside. Quantitative assessments revealed that an interface undercooling of 48.2 ºC was required to form the eutectic dendrites, or in other words, to enter the coupled zone of the Al-Al3Sc phase diagram. Furthermore, a phenomenon of scientific interest was discussed: When crystallizing under a near-equilibrium condition, the eutectic Al3Sc phase formed a non-faceted morphology, in contradiction to its faceted nature. Based on the competitive growth criterion, it was deduced that the non-faceting of the eutectic Al3Sc phase essentially reduced the interface undercooling for the resultant regular eutectic, in comparison to an otherwise irregular eutectic that would contain a faceted eutectic Al3Sc phase.
