description: Dynamic properties of elasto-inertial turbulence (EIT) are studied in a Taylor-Couette geometry. EIT is a chaotic flow state that develops upon both non-negligible inertia and viscoelasticity. A combination of direct flow visualisation and torque measurement allows to verify the earlier onset of EIT compared to purely inertial instabilities (and inertial turbulence). The scaling of the pseudo-Nusselt number with inertia and elasticity is discussed here for the first time. Variations in the friction coefficient, temporal frequency spectra, and spatial power density spectra highlight that EIT undergoes an intermediate behavior before transitioning to its fully developed chaotic state that requires both high inertia and elasticity. During this transition the contribution of secondary flows to the overall friction dynamics is limited. This is expected to be of great interest in the aim of achieving efficiency mixing at low drag and low but finite Reynolds number.

Creators: name: Fornari, Silvia

Year: 2016

description: The considerations on the narcissistic state of todayʹs society, advanced by several authors, highlight the prevalence of hedonistic and selfish interests of men and women, favoring the development of their personality mostly immature and childish. The structural weakness of Western individuals in the construction of oneʹs personality stands out and is manifested primarily in their difficulties, more and more obvious, to become mature persons, able to make choices about their own life paths. The postponement until avoidance of life choices seems to be the dominant prerogative, as to mark persons increasingly without any responsibility and disengaged with respect to the own and another’s future; lost persons without critical analysis of the reality in which they live nor prospective thinking and/or a life project.

description: Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) has promise to simultaneously examine muscle size and composition.  The purpose of this study was to examine the between- and within-day test-retest reliability of pQCT-derived mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), lean muscle CSA, and muscle density (MD) of the dominant thigh among young and older men and women.  All variables were determined using an automatic threshold-based edge detection software and an automated enclosing convex polygon approach.  Thirty-nine participants enrolled in the study and visited the laboratory completing three scans on two separate occasions.  The absolute (SEM (%): 0.92 – 4.91) and relative (ICC2,1: 0.643 – 0.999) consistency values were acceptable for both protocols for muscle CSA, lean muscle CSA, and MD.  Further, relative and absolute consistency values were better for the enclosing convex polygon approach.

description: A generalization of the canonical and non-canonical theory of inflation is introduced in which the kinetic energy term in action is written as non-local term. The inflationary universe within the framework of considering this non-locality will be studied. To investigate the effects of non-locality on the inflationary parameters we consider two well known models of inflationary scenario includes of chaotic and exponential inflation proposals. For such scenarios some important parameters include slow roll parameters, scalar and tensor power spectra, spectral indices, the tensor-to-scalar ratio and so on for both mentioned models, chaotic and exponential inflationary scenarios, will be calculated. Also the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism, as an easiest way to study the effect of perturbation based on e-folding number $N$, to investigate inflationary attractors will be used. The free theoretical parameters of this model will be compared with observations by means of Planck $2013$, $WMAP9+eCMB+BAO+H_0$ data sets in addition to $BICEP2$ data surveying. It will be shown that our theoretical results are in acceptable range in comparison to observations. For instance the tensor-to-scalar ratio for exponential potential, by considering $BICEP2$ is in best agreement in comparison with chaotic inflation.

THE EFFECT OF CARBON-PLATED RUNNING SHOES ON PERFORMANCE
Creators: name: Edgar, Kyle Michael
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Differences in running economy (RE) in shoes with and without a carbon fiber plate were assessed. Nine participants who had previously run under 18-minutes in the 5km completed the study. Three shoe conditions were assessed at intensities slightly above and below the ventilatory threshold (VT), totaling six 5-minute RE bouts. In two otherwise identical Skechers running shoes, RE was unchanged with a carbon fiber plate running at intensities below (p = 0.355) and above VT (p = 0.715). The Nike Vaporfly 4% improved RE with respect to the Skechers Speed Elite carbon fiber shoe both below (p = 0.005) and above VT (p = 0.019). Changes in RE did not differ at intensities below and above VT (p = 0.893). The current interim findings suggest that a carbon fiber plate alone may not improve RE, but there may be a combined effect of midsole cushioning and a carbon fiber plate.

description: The inverse of the Faddeev-Popov operator plays a pivotal role within the Gribov-Zwanziger approach to the quantization of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories in Landau gauge. Following a recent proposal [Phys. Rev. D90 (2014) 085010], we show that the inverse of the Faddeev-Popov operator can be consistently coupled to quark fields. Such a coupling gives rise to a local action while reproducing the behaviour of the quark propagator observed in lattice numerical simulations in the non-perturbative infrared region. By using the algebraic renormalization framework, we prove that the aforementioned local action is multiplicatively renormalizable to all orders.

The Acquisition of Mandarin Chinese by American Heritage Speakers and Second Language Learners of Chinese
Creators: name: Bao, Yuanchen
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Heritage language acquisition has always been controversial and has been widely discussed by scholars in recent years. Some people think that heritage language acquisition is the same as L2 language acquisition, while other people think that heritage language acquisition is different from either L1 or L2 language acquisition. The current study aims to investigate the phonological acquisition of Mandarin Chinese by American heritage speakers and intermediate L2 learners. 5 heritage speakers, 8 intermediate adult L2 Chinese learners (including 5 lower intermediate and 3 upper intermediate learners), and 5 native speakers participated in the perception and production experiment. The logistic regression model on the results of error rates in the perception of half-T3 sandhi proves that both heritage listeners and intermediate L2 listeners are more sensitive to high tones or the tone starting with a high pitch point compared to low tones. Both groups rely on the starting point of the tonal pitch to perceive Mandarin tones rather than tonal contours. The results of the production experimentreveal that heritage speakers produce different Mandarin aspirated voiceless alveolo-palatal affricate [tɕʰ] from either native speakers or intermediate L2 speakers. The finding implies that heritage speakers may establish a new L2 sound category for L1 sounds and differ from low intermediate L2 speakers who assimilate the target phoneme to English voiceless post-aveloar affricate [tʃ]. The current study offers an aspect of heritage phonological acquisition in terms of the learning of Mandarin segmental and suprasegmental features by learners who acquire Chinese as an additional language.

description: Background: The extremely malignant tumour known as pancreatic cancer (PC) lacks efficient prognostic markers and treatment strategies. The microbiome is crucial to how cancer develops and responds to treatment. Our study was conducted in order to better understand how PC patients’ microbiomes influence their outcome, tumour microenvironment, and responsiveness to immunotherapy. Methods: We integrated transcriptome and microbiome data of PC and used univariable Cox regression and Kaplan–Meier method for screening the prognostic microbes. Then intratumor microbiome-derived subtypes were identified using consensus clustering. We utilized LASSO and Cox regression to build the microbe-related model for predicting the prognosis of PC, and utilized eight algorithms to assess the immune microenvironment feature. The OncoPredict package was utilized to predict drug treatment response. We utilized qRT-PCR to verify gene expression and single-cell analysis to reveal the composition of PC tumour microenvironment. Results: We obtained a total of 26 prognostic genera in PC. And PC samples were divided into two microbiome-related subtypes: Mcluster A and B. Compared with Mcluster A, patients in Mcluster B had a worse prognosis and higher TNM stage and pathological grade. Immune analysis revealed that neutrophils, regulatory T cell, CD8+ T cell, macrophages M1 and M2, cancer associated fibroblasts, myeloid dendritic cell, and activated mast cell had remarkably higher infiltrated levels within the tumour microenvironment of Mcluster B. Patients in Mcluster A were more likely to benefit from CTLA-4 blockers and were highly sensitive to 5-fluorouracil, cisplatin, gemcitabine, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and epirubicin. Moreover, we built a microbe-derived model to assess the outcome. The ROC curves showed that the microbe-related model has good predictive performance. The expression of LAMA3 and LIPH was markedly increased within pancreatic tumour tissues and was linked to advanced stage and poor prognosis. Single-cell analysis indicated that besides cancer cells, the tumour microenvironment of PC was also rich in monocytes/macrophages, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts. LIPH and LAMA3 exhibited relatively higher expression in cancer cells and neutrophils. Conclusion: The intratumor microbiome-derived subtypes and signature in PC were first established, and our study provided novel perspectives on PC prognostic indicators and treatment options.
On the Forces of Driver Distraction: Explainable Predictions for the Visual Demand of In-Vehicle Touchscreen Interactions

description: With modern infotainment systems, drivers are increasingly tempted to engage in secondary tasks while driving. Since distracted driving is already one of the main causes of fatal accidents, in-vehicle touchscreen Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) must be as little distracting as possible. To ensure that these systems are safe to use, they undergo elaborate and expensive empirical testing, requiring fully functional prototypes. Thus, early-stage methods informing designers about the implication their design may have on driver distraction are of great value. This paper presents a machine learning method that, based on anticipated usage scenarios, predicts the visual demand of in-vehicle touchscreen interactions and provides local and global explanations of the factors influencing drivers' visual attention allocation. The approach is based on large-scale natural driving data continuously collected from production line vehicles and employs the SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) method to provide explanations leveraging informed design decisions. Our approach is more accurate than related work and identifies interactions during which long glances occur with 68 % accuracy and predicts the total glance duration with a mean error of 2.4 s. Our explanations replicate the results of various recent studies and provide fast and easily accessible insights into the effect of UI elements, driving automation, and vehicle speed on driver distraction. The system can not only help designers to evaluate current designs but also help them to better anticipate and understand the implications their design decisions might have on future designs.

description: We study the Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) cross section as a function of the transverse momentum, $q_T$. In order to describe it over a wide region of $q_T$, soft gluon resummation has to be performed. Here we will use the original Collins-Soper-Sterman (CSS) formalism; however, the same procedure would hold within the improved Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) framework. We study the matching between the region where fixed order perturbative QCD can successfully be applied and the region where soft gluon resummation is necessary. We find that the commonly used prescription of matching through the so-called Y-factor cannot be applied in the SIDIS kinematical configurations we examine. In particular, the non-perturbative component of the resummed cross section turns out to play a crucial role and should not be overlooked even at relatively high energies. Moreover, the perturbative expansion of the resummed cross section in the matching region is not as reliable as it is usually believed and its treatment requires special attention.

Utilizing ‘Austerity Urbanism’ to Understand Berlin's Response to the 2015-16 Influx of Refugees and Asylum Seekers
Creators: name: Gruesbeck, Chloe J
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: In 2015, a wave of forcibly displaced people entered Germany in what became known as the ‘refugee crisis.’ Drawing on the case of Berlin — which absorbed a higher number of refugees than any other European city — my thesis will highlight the obstacles to accepting large influxes of refugees in an urban space, specifically relating to housing provisions. At the core of my analysis, I apply the concept of austerity urbanism as an ideological lens to understand Berlin’s state response. I will explain how decades of privatization and budget cuts to social services caused the state and local authorities to lack the capacity to adequately respond to the newcomers’ needs. I conclude that Berlin’s refugee ‘crisis’ originated less so in the arrival of thousands of migrants than in the failure of state institutions.

description: In this paper, I will explore the European Union energy security situation. The need to understand energy security within the European Union has increased significantly in recent years. This paper will explore the definitions of energy security and goal posting of a successful energy security policy. Further, it introduces three prominent barriers the European Union faces: internal divisions in energy policy, aging and inadequate energy infrastructure, and the reliance on foreign imports. These three barriers constitute major barriers to European energy security in the present and future.
Individual and relationship functioning disparities between individuals in sexual minority and heterosexual couples

description: Sexual minority (SM) individuals experience worse psychological and physical outcomes than heterosexuals due to stressors associated with SM status. Sexual minority couple functioning may also be differentially impacted for SM couples as a whole compared to heterosexual couples; and functioning may further vary between subgroups of sexual minority couples depending on gender and sexual orientation of both partners. Participants in relationships (N = 484) reported on individual and relationship functioning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Multiple regression analyses comparing SM couples (N = 92) and heterosexual couples (N = 392), and separately, two subgroups of mixed-gender bisexual+ couples revealed that gender and sexual orientation were differentially related to individual and relationship functioning, both for SM couples broadly and between mixed-gender bisexual+ subgroups. Findings contribute to an increasing canon of research about sexual minority couples and provide evidence for the important role of partners’ sexual orientation on individual and relational well-being.

description: We present a field theory analysis of a model of two SU(2n)-invariant magnetic chains coupled by a generic interaction preserving time reversal and inversion symmetry. Contrary to the SU(2)-invariant case the zero-temperature phase diagram of such two-leg spin ladder does not contain topological phases. Only generalized Valence Bond Solid phases are stabilized when n>1 with different wave vectors and ground-state degeneracies. In particular, we find a phase which is made of a cluster of 2n spins put in an SU(2n) singlet state. For n=3, this cluster phase is relevant to ytterbium ultracold atoms, with an emergent SU(6) symmetry, loaded in double well optical lattice.

description: Developing agents that can execute multiple skills by learning from pre-collected datasets is an important problem in robotics, where online interaction with the environment is extremely time-consuming. Moreover, manually designing reward functions for every single desired skill is prohibitive. Prior works targeted these challenges by learning goal-conditioned policies from offline datasets without manually specified rewards, through hindsight relabelling. These methods suffer from the issue of sparsity of rewards, and fail at long-horizon tasks. In this work, we propose a novel self-supervised learning phase on the pre-collected dataset to understand the structure and the dynamics of the model, and shape a dense reward function for learning policies offline. We evaluate our method on three continuous control tasks, and show that our model significantly outperforms existing approaches, especially on tasks that involve long-term planning.

description: Third sound is studied for superfluid films of 4He adsorbed on multiwall carbon nanotubes packed into an annular resonator. The third sound is generated with mechanical oscillation of the cell, and detected with carbon bolometers. A filling curve at temperatures near 250 mK shows oscillations in the third sound velocity, with maxima at the completion of the 4th and 5th atomic layers. Sharp changes in the Q factor of the third sound are found at partial layer fillings. Temperature sweeps at a number of fill points show strong broadening effects on the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition, and rapidly increasing dissipation, in qualitative agreement with the predictions of Machta and Guyer. At the 4th layer completion there is a sudden reduction of the transition temperature $T_{KT}$, and then a recovery back to linear variation with temperature, although the slope is considerably smaller than the KT prediction. Some of these effects may be related to changes in the gas-liquid coexistence regions.

description: We analyze the impact of women’s managerial representation on the gender pay gap among employees on the establishment level using German Linked-Employer-Employee-Data from the years 2004 to 2018. For identification of a causal effect we employ a panel model with establishment fixed effects and industry-specific time dummies. Our results show that a higher share of women in management significantly reduces the gender pay gap within the firm. An increase in the share of women in first-level management e.g. from zero to above 33 percent decreases the adjusted gender pay gap from a baseline of 15 percent by 1.2 percentage points, i.e. to roughly 14 percent. The effect is stronger for women in second-level than first-level management, indicating that women managers with closer interactions with their subordinates have a higher impact on the gender pay gap than women on higher management levels. The results are similar for East and West Germany, despite the lower gender pay gap and more gender egalitarian social norms in East Germany. From a policy perspective, we conclude that increasing the number of women in management positions has the potential to reduce the gender pay gap to a limited extent. However, further policy measures will be needed in order to fully close the gender gap in pay.

description: Achieving sub-arcsecond co-registration across varying time-lines of multi-wavelength and instrument images is not trivial, and requires accurate characterization of instrument pointing jitter. In this work we have investigated internal pointing errors, on daily and yearly time-scales, occurring across the \textit{Solar Dynamics Observatory}'s (SDO) {\it Atmospheric Imaging Assembly} (AIA) and { \it Helioseismic Magnetic Imager} (HMI). Using cross-correlation techniques on AIA 1700\,Å passband and HMI line-of-sight (LOS) magnetograms, from three years of observational image pairs at approximately three day intervals, internal pointing errors are quantified. Pointing variations of $\pm$\,0.26$\arcsec$ (jitter limited) and $\pm$\,0.50$\arcsec$ in the solar East-West ($x$) and North-South ($y$) directions, respectively, are measured. AIA observations of the Venus June 2012 transit are used to measure existing coalignment offsets in all passbands. We find AIA passband pointing variations are $< ΔX_{CO} >$\,$=$\, 1.10$\arcsec$\,$\pm$\,1.41$\arcsec$ and $< ΔY_{CO} >$\,$=$\, 1.25$\arcsec$\,$\pm$\,1.24$\arcsec$, when aligned to HMI's nominal image center, referred to herein as the CutOut technique (CO). Minimal long-term pointing variations found between limb and correlation derived pointings provide evidence that image center positions provided by the instrument teams achieve single pixel accuracy on time-scales below their characterization. However, daily AIA passband pointing variations of $\lesssim$\,1.18$\arcsec$ indicate autonomous sub-arcsecond co-registration is not yet fully achievable.

description: We present the confirmation of SDSS J222551.65+001637.7AB as a closely separated, resolved, white dwarf-brown dwarf binary. We have obtained spectroscopy from GNIRS and seeing-limited $K_s$-band imaging from NIRI on Gemini North. The target is spatially resolved into its constituent components: a 10926$ \pm$ 246 K white dwarf, with log $g = 8.214 \pm 0.168$ and a mass of 0.66$^{+0.11}_{-0.06}$ M$_{\odot}$, and an L4 brown dwarf companion, which are separated by $0.9498 \pm 0.0022$". We derive the fundamental properties of the companion from the Sonora-Bobcat evolutionary models, finding a mass of $25-53$ M$_{\text{Jup}}$ and a radius of $0.101-0.128$ R$_{\odot}$ for the brown dwarf, at a confidence level of 1$σ$. We use wdwarfdate to determine the age of the binary as $1.97^{+4.41}_{-0.76}$ Gyr. A kinematic analysis shows that this binary is likely a member of the thick disc. The distance to the binary is 218$^{+14}_{-13}$ pc, and hence the projected separation of the binary is 207$^{+13}_{-12}$ AU. Whilst the white dwarf progenitor was on the main sequence the binary separation would have been $69 \pm 5$ AU. SDSS J222551.65+001637.7AB is the third closest spatially resolved white dwarf-brown dwarf binary after GD 165AB and PHL 5038AB.

description: This report provides a foundation for research on task-based search systems and also identifies many barriers, especially for academic researchers who do not have the tools to collect longitudinal, naturalistic data of people's online information seeking behaviors. Major themes of the workshop include the development of domain-neutral modeling techniques to represent tasks, task properties and task-related search behaviors and the identification of techniques and tools to evaluate task-based search systems. The most critical need identified was the development of task models; this was viewed as essential for addressing the challenges of tools and evaluation measures.
Evaluating the effectiveness of point of use UVC-LED disinfection of activated carbon block filter effluent in private well water in North Carolina

description: Point of use (POU) water treatment systems such as activated carbon block (ACB) filtration are efficient and cost-effective for providing safe drinking water to private well users as private wells are not regulated by federal or state authorities. ACB filters effectively remove chemical but not microbial contaminants. This research investigates the effectiveness of Ultraviolet-C (UVC) light disinfection for treating ACB effluent from private well water. An ACB filter followed by a UVC disinfection device were installed in 17 homes relying on private wells in North Carolina. Influent and effluent samples were collected monthly for 5 months. Total coliform, E. coli, heterotrophic plate count (HPC) and male specific coliphages were assayed in all samples. Heterotrophic bacteria, and male specific coliphages did not change significantly, however a marginally significant decrease of total coliform was found in UV effluent samples. The species richness of heterotrophic bacteria decreased from the UV influent to effluent.

description: Query Expansion using Pseudo Relevance Feedback is a useful and a popular technique for reformulating the query. In our proposed query expansion method, we assume that relevant information can be found within a document near the central idea. The document is normally divided into sections, paragraphs and lines. The proposed method tries to extract keywords that are closer to the central theme of the document. The expansion terms are obtained by equi-frequency partition of the documents obtained from pseudo relevance feedback and by using tf-idf scores. The idf factor is calculated for number of partitions in documents. The group of words for query expansion is selected using the following approaches: the highest score, average score and a group of words that has maximum number of keywords. As each query behaved differently for different methods, the effect of these methods in selecting the words for query expansion is investigated. From this initial study, we extend the experiment to develop a rule-based statistical model that automatically selects the best group of words incorporating the tf-idf scoring and the 3 approaches explained here, in the future. The experiments were performed on FIRE 2011 Adhoc Hindi and English test collections on 50 queries each, using Terrier as retrieval engine.

description: We experimentally study the critical properties of the non-equilibrium solid-liquid-like transition that takes place in vibrated granular matter. The critical dynamics is characterized by the coupling of the density field with the bond-orientational order parameter $Q_4$, which measures the degree of local crystallization. Two setups are compared, which present the transition at different critical accelerations as a a result of modifying the energy dissipation parameters. In both setups five independent critical exponents are measured, associated to different properties of $Q_4$: the correlation length, relaxation time, vanishing wavenumber limit (static susceptibility), the hydrodynamic regime of the pair correlation function, and the amplitude of the order parameter. The respective critical exponents agree in both setups and are given by $ν_{\perp} = 1$, $ν_{\parallel} = 2$, $γ= 1$, $η\approx 0.6 - 0.67$, and $β=1/2$, whereas the dynamical critical exponent is $z = ν_{\parallel}/ν_{\perp} = 2$. The agreement on five exponents is an exigent test for the universality of the transition. Thus, while dissipation is strictly necessary to form the crystal, the path the system undergoes towards the phase separation is part of a well defined universality class. In fact, the local order shows critical properties while density does not. Being the later conserved, the appropriate model that couples both is model C in the Hohenberg and Halperin classification. The measured exponents are in accord with the non-equilibrium extension to model C if we assume that $α$, the exponent associated in equilibrium to the specific heat divergence but with no counterpart in this non-equilibrium experiment, vanishes.

HEALTHCARE PROVIDER PERSPECTIVES ON THE COMMUNICATION AND SOCIAL SUPPORT RESOURCE TRAJECTORY FOR ADOLESCENT AND YOUNG ADULT PROGRAM CARE
Creators: name: Belina, Stephanie Paige
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Chronic illnesses among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) can cause frequent hospitalization, which may lead to social isolation. Social support can exist in many forms, such as in-person or online, and this study sought to understand how providers discuss and view social support for adolescent and young adult populations. The study included interviews with 11 providers who worked with AYA patients for at least 12 months. Providers shared their perspectives for existing social support resources, including their importance in helping patients feel less alone and connected to others. Views on potential social support opportunities, including video games, varied from openness to recommending them to requiring more information before considering them.  Criteria for recommending social support options evidence-based, trustworthy leadership, positive references, and demonstrated success, which may highlight areas for future research.
