description: To determine the potential of low-end high-intensity home-based hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy (H-HABIT) in mitigating post-modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) regression in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP). Twenty-two children (aged 4–12 years) with UCP were assigned to either the experimental (n = 12) or control group (n = 10). Both groups completed 30 h of mCIMT for three weeks, followed by 30 h of H-HABIT for five weeks in the experimental group and none in the control group. Assessments, including the assisting hand assessment (AHA) and other standardized measures, were performed at baseline, post-mCIMT, and post-H-HABIT. Triaxial accelerometers were worn on both wrists during each phase to monitor the activity. The experimental group showed AHA scores from baseline to post-H-HABIT, with a significant time × group interaction (p = 0.001, ƞ2 = 0.29) indicating distinct trajectories from the control. In contrast, actigraphy-based measures of the upper limb remained stable over time. Caregiver feedback for H-HABIT showed that 83.33% found the guidelines easy to follow, and 91.67% rated therapist interactions as helpful. H-HABIT may help prevent post-mCIMT regression. Further research should refine task selection and explore advanced assessment methods to better capture real-world function.

description: This comparative descriptive study was conducted at a public regional hospital located in the south-east region of the province of New Brunswick, Canada. The purpose of this study was to identify if the barriers to and facilitators of research utilization in a group of perioperative nurses are similar to other research areas utilizing the same scale.
The data collection process was done over a two (2) month period utilizing the Barriers and Facilitators to Using Research in Practice questionnaire (BARRIERS Scale) developed by Funk et al. (1991). The fmal sample size consisted of 46 nurses (61% response rate) who completed the survey.
The results show that the top barrier was 'The nurse does not feel she/he has enough authority to change patient care procedures' followed by 'physicians will not cooperate with implementation'. Seven out of the top ten barriers were related to the `setting'. The facilitating factors most frequently suggested by the nurses were related to the setting (organization) as well as the models of education to increase their knowledge of research methods and to develop skills in evaluating research findings. These results are congruent with previous findings regarding the barriers to research utilization. The implication of these and other findings are also discussed.

description: In recent times,there has been a significant volume of work on Eutectic High Entropy Alloys (EHEAs) owing to their remarkable castability combined with excellent mechanical properties,which aids in clearing obstacles for their technological applications. One of the most common EHEAs,which has been of enormous interest at present, primarily owing to its solidification and tensile behavior, is AlCoCrFeNi$_{2.1}$. However,to aim for high-temperature applications,oxidation behaviour of material is one of the major aspects that needs to be extensively investigated.To this end,the present work aims to study the phases evolved during oxidation at elevated temperatures as high as 950 and 1000$^\circ$C in AlCoCrFeNi$_{2.1}$ using XRD and also to determine the rate law followed for isothermal oxidation of this alloy at 950 and 1000$^\circ$C,in order to understand the role of Al$_2$O$_3$ phase formed during isothermal oxidation at 950 and 1000$^\circ$C.
Flood control and sediment transport study of the Vedder River
Creators: name: McLean, David George
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The Chilliwack River flows through the Cascade Mountains until reaching a narrow gorge near Vedder Crossing where it flows onto the Fraser Lowlands and eventually meets the Fraser River. Below Vedder Crossing, the river is actively building an alluvial fan by depositing its sediment load of gravel and sand. This deposition has resulted in frequent channel shifts over the fan surface with the most recent migration occurring around 1894 when the river shifted down Vedder Creek. Over the last century the Vedder River has been undergoing very complex changes in response to changes in the incidence of severe floods, changes in sediment supply and interference from river training. Extensive channelization works carried out in the 1960's induced temporary degradation over part of the channel which was accompanied by rapid aggradation in the reach immediately downstream. This rapid channel adjustment ceased in less than 10 years. In 1975 a flood having a return period of about 10 years deposited 260,000 cubic yards of sediment onto the fan which increased the mean bedlevel by nearly 1 foot. By comparison, the average annual deposition rate was estimated to be 72,000 cubic yards per year. Based on bedload transport calculations, approximately 700,000 cubic yards of sediment could be deposited by a 50 year rainstorm flood. In order to provide long term flood control, either the upstream sediment supply will have to be reduced or dredging will have to be carried out on the lower river. It is not feasible to eliminate aggradation by transporting the incoming bedload through the system and into the Fraser River. Some strategies are considered which, by controlled dredging and training would maintain the channel permanently in its present position. More severe floods would be contained by set-back dikes. It is thought that, with care, these measures could be consistent with salmon habitat requirements.

The Barong Wants to go out Again: Krisis moneter and the Resurgence of Rituals in Indonesia
Creators: name: Gottowik, Volker

Year: 2008

description: The economic and monetary crisis (krismo) at the end of the nineties has changed Indonesia in many respects. While the political transformations in the wake of Suharto’s step back seem all too obvious, changes in religious activities are seldom taken into account. This paper refers to the impact of krismo on ritual performances connected with the famous Barong fi gures in Bali. These impacts are twofold: the democratization of Indonesia led not only to a revival of cultural activities of ethnic Chinese of which the reappearance of Barongsai dance troupes after more than 30 years of oppression is only one feature; the economic crises also raised the demand for new Barong masks on the side of the local Balinese people and fi nally caused a boom of ritual activities connected with these sacred fi gures. Against this background it will be demonstrated that krismo led not only to a revitalisation of the Barong cult in Bali, but also became itself a topic of particular Barong performances. Therefore it is argued that economic events have religious impacts and vice versa. But how is krismo as a topic taken up by ritual discourse and what kinds of message do the local actors disseminate through the medium of Barong?

description: Chronological age of healthy people is able to be predicted accurately using deep neural networks from neuroimaging data, and the predicted brain age could serve as a biomarker for detecting aging-related diseases. In this paper, a novel 3D convolutional network, called two-stage-age-network (TSAN), is proposed to estimate brain age from T1-weighted MRI data. Compared with existing methods, TSAN has the following improvements. First, TSAN uses a two-stage cascade network architecture, where the first-stage network estimates a rough brain age, then the second-stage network estimates the brain age more accurately from the discretized brain age by the first-stage network. Second, to our knowledge, TSAN is the first work to apply novel ranking losses in brain age estimation, together with the traditional mean square error (MSE) loss. Third, densely connected paths are used to combine feature maps with different scales. The experiments with $6586$ MRIs showed that TSAN could provide accurate brain age estimation, yielding mean absolute error (MAE) of $2.428$ and Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) of $0.985$, between the estimated and chronological ages. Furthermore, using the brain age gap between brain age and chronological age as a biomarker, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) can be distinguished from healthy control (HC) subjects by support vector machine (SVM). Classification AUC in AD/HC and MCI/HC was $0.904$ and $0.823$, respectively. It showed that brain age gap is an effective biomarker associated with risk of dementia, and has potential for early-stage dementia risk screening. The codes and trained models have been released on GitHub: https://github.com/Milan-BUAA/TSAN-brain-age-estimation.

The China Factor in Regional Security Cooperation: The ASEAN Regional Forum and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization
Creators: name: Gerstl, Alfred
Publisher: name: Austrian Journal of South-East Asian Studies
Year: 2008

description: This article argues that regional security cooperation in South-East Asia, mainly promoted by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), is a response to China´s economic rise. Although China is not regarded as a military challenge, Beijing’s ascension threatens to undermine the regional balance of power. The emerging insecurities threaten the stability of the regimes whose power is based on output legitimacy. Cooperation, the thesis states, can reduce these uncertainties. Yet, whereas collaboration in the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) offers Beijing incentives for the strengthening of its “enlightened” multilateralism, regional cooperation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) will not change China’s behaviour. The reason is that this cooperation is based on Realpolitik motives. Offensive Realism seems therefore well suited to analyse the Central Asian power relations. Even though the dimension of cooperation has not been included in John Mearsheimer’s approach, this article demonstrates that it can conceptually be integrated into offensive Realism without contradicting its core theses. For this, however, its adherents must accept two assumptions: First, that the domestic political logic – in case of Beijing the output legitimacy of the Communist Party – must be integrated. Second, that there exists no automatism in international politics. Otherwise one would have to speak of the tragic of offensive Realism: Policies, based on this perception, does not offer China suffi cient incentives to further pursue multilateralism.

description: Amorphous solids appear to react elastically to small external strains, but in contrast to ideal elastic media, plastic responses abound immediately, at any value of the strain. Such plastic responses are quasi-localized in nature, with the ``cheapest" one being a quadrupolar source. The existence of such plastic responses results in {\em screened elasticity} in which strains and stresses can either quantitatively or qualitatively differ from the un-screened theory, depending on the specific screening mechanism. Here we offer a theory of such screening effects by plastic quadrupoles, dipoles and monopoles, explain their natural appearance, and point out the analogy to electrostatic screening by electric charges and dipoles. For low density of quadrupoles the effect is to normalize the elastic moduli without a qualitative change compared to pure elasticity theory; for higher density of quadrupoles the screening effects result in qualitative changes. Predictions for the spatial dependence of displacement fields caused by local sources of strains are provided and compared to numerical simulations. We find that anomalous elasticity is richer than electrostatics in having a screening mode that does not appear in the electrostatic analog

description: The attractive interactions between oppositely charged species (colloids, macromolecules etc) dispersed in water are strong, and the direct mixing of solutions containing such species generally yields to a precipitation, or to a phase separation. We have recently developed means to control the electrostatically-driven attractions between nanoparticles and polymers in water, and at the same time to preserve the stability of the dispersions. We give here an account of the formation of supracolloidal aggregates obtained by co-assembly of 7 nm particles with copolymers. Nanostructured rods of length comprised between 5 and 50 microns and diameter 500 nm were investigated. By application of a magnetic field, the rods were found to reorient along with the magnetic field lines. The kinetics of reorientation was investigated using step changes of the magnetic field of amplitude 90 degrees. From the various results obtained, among which an exponential decay of the tangent of the angle made between the rod and the field, we concluded that the rods are superparamagnetic.

description: We propose to use spatial correlations of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (KSZ) flux as an estimator of the peculiar velocity power spectrum. In contrast with conventional techniques, our new method does not require measurements of the thermal SZ signal or the X-ray temperature. Moreover, this method has the special advantage that the expected systematic errors are always sub-dominant to statistical errors on all scales and redshifts of interest. We show that future large sky coverage KSZ surveys may allow a peculiar velocity power spectrum estimates of an accuracy reaching ~10%.

description: Background: Quantum computing is a rapidly growing new programming paradigm that brings significant changes to the design and implementation of algorithms. Understanding quantum algorithms requires knowledge of physics and mathematics, which can be challenging for software developers.
 Aims: In this work, we provide a first analysis of how LLMs can support developers' understanding of quantum code. Method: We empirically analyse and compare the quality of explanations provided by three widely adopted LLMs (Gpt3.5, Llama2, and Tinyllama) using two different human-written prompt styles for seven state-of-the-art quantum algorithms. We also analyse how consistent LLM explanations are over multiple rounds and how LLMs can improve existing descriptions of quantum algorithms.
 Results: Llama2 provides the highest quality explanations from scratch, while Gpt3.5 emerged as the LLM best suited to improve existing explanations. In addition, we show that adding a small amount of context to the prompt significantly improves the quality of explanations. Finally, we observe how explanations are qualitatively and syntactically consistent over multiple rounds.
 Conclusions: This work highlights promising results, and opens challenges for future research in the field of LLMs for quantum code explanation. Future work includes refining the methods through prompt optimisation and parsing of quantum code explanations, as well as carrying out a systematic assessment of the quality of explanations.

description: We consider interacting Bose particles in an external local potential. It is shown that large class of external quasicrystal potentials cannot sustain any type of Bose-Einstein condensates. Accordingly, at spatial dimensions $D\leq 2$ in such quasicrystal potentials a supersolid is not possible via Bose-Einstein condensates at finite temperatures. The latter also hold true for the two-dimensional Fibonacci tiling. However, supersolids do arise at $D\leq 2$ via Bose-Einstein condensates from infinitely long-range, nonlocal interparticle potentials.

description: In the Kondo effect, a localized magnetic moment is screened by forming a correlated electron system with the surrounding conduction electrons of a non-magnetic host. Spin S=1/2 Kondo systems have been investigated extensively in theory and experiments, but magnetic atoms often have a larger spin. Larger spins are subject to the influence of magnetocrystalline anisotropy, which describes the dependence of the magnetic moment's energy on the orientation of the spin relative to its surrounding atomic environment. Here we demonstrate the decisive role of magnetic anisotropy in the physics of Kondo screening. A scanning tunnelling microscope is used to simultaneously determine the magnitude of the spin, the magnetic anisotropy and the Kondo properties of individual magnetic atoms on a surface. We find that a Kondo resonance emerges for large-spin atoms only when the magnetic anisotropy creates degenerate ground-state levels that are connected by the spin flip of a screening electron. The magnetic anisotropy also determines how the Kondo resonance evolves in a magnetic field: the resonance peak splits at rates that are strongly direction dependent. These rates are well described by the energies of the underlying unscreened spin states.

description: Binary black hole may form near a supermassive black hole. The background black hole (BH) will affect the gravitational wave (GW) generated by the binary black hole. It is well known that the Penrose process may provide extra energy due to the ergosphere. In the present paper we investigate the energy amplification of the gravitational wave by a Kerr black hole background. In particular and different from the earlier studies, we compare the energies of the waves in the cases with and without a nearby Kerr BH. We find that only when the binary black hole is moving relative to the Kerr background can the GW energy be amplified. Otherwise, the energy will be suppressed by the background Kerr black hole. This finding is consistent with the inequality found by Wald for Penrose process. Taking into account realistic astrophysical scenarios, we find that the Kerr black hole background can amplify the GW energy by at most 5 times.

In particular, we obtain the spectral curves of the matrix model which captures the expectation value of the loops. These spectral curves are then proven to be precisely the hyperelliptic surfaces that characterize the bubbling solutions dual to the Wilson loops, thus yielding an example of a geometry emerging from an eigenvalue distribution. We finally discuss the Wilson loop expectation value from the matrix model and from supergravity.

description: A reliable description of nuclear fusion reactions in inner layers of white dwarfs and envelopes of neutron stars is important for realistic modelling of a wide range of observable astrophysical phenomena from accreting neutron stars to type Ia supernovae. We study the problem of screening of the Coulomb barrier impeding the reactions, by a plasma surrounding the fusing nuclei. Numerical calculations of the screening factor are performed from the first principles with the aid of quantum-mechanical path integrals in the model of a one-component plasma of atomic nuclei for temperatures and densities typical for dense liquid layers of compact degenerate stars. We do not rely on various quasiclassic approximations widely used in the literature, such as factoring-out the tunneling process, tunneling in an average spherically symmetric mean-force potential, usage of classic free energies and pair correlation functions, linear mixing rule and so on. In general, a good agreement with earlier results from the thermonuclear limit to $Γ\sim 100$ is found. For a very strongly coupled liquid $100 \lesssim Γ\leq 175$, a deviation from currently used parametrisations of the reaction rates is discovered and approximated by a simple analytic expression. The developed method of nuclear reaction rate calculations with account of plasma screening can be extended to ion mixtures and crystallised phases of stellar matter.

Stochastic river modelling to estimate flood probabilities of a tidal river
Creators: name: Jamal, Iqbal Badrudin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The optimal use of resources in a floodplain is important especially as marginal returns increase in value. Flood control measures which protect floodplain development need to be conservative to allow for future growth. This thesis presents a methodology whereby the likelihood of flooding of a river is determined from Monte Carlo simulations using a numerical river model. The river model is based on the hydrodynamic equations of motion and continuity while the stochastic parameters of the river are determined from recorded discharge data from the Nicomekl River, Surrey B.C., which is used as the test case of this study. Comparisons are made between simulated and recorded data with predictions of flood probabilities and conclusions as to the use of the methodology.

Music and Artistic Artefacts: Symbols of Rohingya Identity and Everyday Resistance in Borderlands
Creators: name: Farzana, Kazi Fahmida
Publisher: name: Austrian Journal of South-East Asian Studies
Year: 2011

description: This study looks at the creation of music and art by Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh as a symbol of social resistance and identity. Ethnographic research on the Rohingyas’ use of music and art suggests that these non-conventional means play an important role in communicating their coherent identity and expressing their resistance to the discrimination and oppression experienced in their country of origin as well as in their exile in Bangladesh. This informal resistance is used to keep their memory alive, to transmit that history through verbal and visual expressions to the new generations, and to communicate information about themselves to outsiders. This article posits that these forms of expression, while suggestive of their identity and everyday resistance, occur mostly in an informal and indirect form, rather than in direct confrontation and protest. These informal means also refl ect the Rohingyas’ pragmatism and coping strategies for living in the borderlands.

description: We present a theory of the anisotropy tuned quantum phase transition between spin nematic and spin-Peierls phases in S=1 systems with significant bi-quadratic exchange interactions. Based on quantum Monte Carlo studies on finite size systems, [K. Harada et al., J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 76, 013703 (2007)] it has been proposed that this phase transition is second order with new deconfined fractional excitations that are absent in either of the two phases [T. Grover and T. Senthil, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 247202 (2007)]. The possibility of a weak first order transition, however, cannot be ruled out. To elucidate the nature of the transition, we construct a large-N SO(3N) model for this phase transition and find in the $N\to\infty$ limit that the transition is generically of first order. Furthermore, we find a critical point in the 1D limit, where two transition lines, separating spin nematic, ferromagnetic, and spin-Peierls phases, meet. Our study indicates that the spin nematic phase is absent in 1D, while its correlation length diverges at the critical point. Predictions for $^{23}$Na atoms trapped in an optical lattice, where this quantum phase transition naturally arises, are discussed.

description: We calculate current, spin current and tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) for a quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic leads in the presence of a square wave of bias voltage. Our results are obtained via time-dependent nonequilibrium Green function. Both parallel and antiparallel lead magnetization alignments are considered. The main findings include a wave of spin accumulation and spin current that can change sign as the time evolves, spikes in the TMR signal and a TMR sign change due to an ultrafast switch from forward to reverse current in the emitter lead.

description: After 10 years of operations of the Large Area Telescope (LAT), a high-energy pair-creation telescope onboard the Fermi satellite, the Fermi Collaboration has produced two major catalogs: the 4FGL and the 3FHL. These catalogs represent the best sample of potential very high energy (VHE) emitters that may be studied by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). Several methods are used to extrapolate the Fermi-LAT spectra to TeV energies, generally using simple analytical functions. The recent success of IACTs has motivated the creation of catalogs listing the discoveries of these experiments. Among these initiatives, gamma-cat excels as an open-access tool to archive high-level results in the VHE field, such as catalogs, spectra and light curves. By using these resources, we present a data-driven methodology to test the reliability of different VHE extrapolation schemes used in the literature and evaluate their accuracy reproducing real VHE observations.

Gendering Cross-Border Networks in the Greater Mekong Subregion: Drawing Invisible Routes to Thailand
Creators: name: Ullah, AKM Ahsan

Publisher: name: Austrian Journal of South-East Asian Studies
Year: 2011

description: This article discusses human traffi cking within the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) in relation to the strengthened inter-state economic and infrastructural co-operation and connectivity, taking the life history of sex workers in Thailand into account. Over the last decades, Thailand became known as a hub of entertainment sectors. Traffi ckers often use socio-economic integration in the GMS to their advantage. A large number of traffi cked women ends up in the Thai entertainment industry doing sex work in confi ned conditions similar to slavery. Poor women are often lured by false promises of well-paid jobs abroad and pay exorbitant fees to agents for such an opportunity. Intermediaries introduce family members to agents who promise to make arrangements for the relevant documentation and transportation across borders. Traffi ckers use their own marked routes to transport their prey which are more invisible than generally could be imagined.

title: Static Analysis Methodologies for WCET Calculating with Asynchronous IO

Publisher: name: Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V.
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: worst case execution time analysis
subject: static estimation
subject: IO subsystem
subject: hard real time system safety critical systems

description: The estimation of the upper bound of the WCET is one of the hardest challenges in the analysis of safety critical real time applications. Since a long time, the static WCET estimation of single core CPU-focused systems without shared resources has been investigated and can now be regarded as solved. The WCET analysis with shared resources is not feasible with current practice due to the lack of information about the internal timing, especially the IO system. The rise of system functionality and the growth of interfaces with high bandwidth in MCUs has resulted in a situation where a CPU-only processing of the IO, or a degraded usage of DMACs, is no more feasible. Therefore, dedicated hardware components, like DMAC, have to be considered and the disadvantages of conflict-affl icted transfers must become part of the analysis. To resolve the problems with interference afflicted MCU internal data transfers, an approach is presented which describes the infl uence parameters on the WCET and expresses these in a simplified timing model of the MCU. Afterwards the information is used to extrapolate the increase of the execution time caused by a given type of traffic to estimate the WCET with asynchronous IO accesses.

Planetary Lensing Signals of High-Magnification Events under Severe Finite-Source Effect
Creators: name: Han, Cheongho
name: Kim, Doeon
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the effect of a finite source on the planetary-lensing signals of high-magnification events. From this, we find that the dependency of the finite-source effect on the caustic shape is weak and perturbations survive even when the source is substantially bigger than the caustic. Specifically, we find that perturbations with fractional magnification excess $\geq 5%$ survive when the source star is roughly 4 times bigger than the caustic. We also find characteristic features that commonly appear in the perturbation patterns of planetary lens systems affected by severe finite-source effect and thus can be used for the diagnosis of the existence of a companion. These features form in and around a circle with its center located at the caustic center and a radius corresponding to that of the source star. The light curve of an event where the source crosses these features will exhibit a distinctive signal that is characterized by short-duration perturbations of either positive or negative excess and a flat residual region between these short-duration perturbations.

FeynRules - Feynman rules made easy

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we present FeynRules, a new Mathematica package that facilitates the implementation of new particle physics models. After the user implements the basic model information (e.g. particle content, parameters and Lagrangian), FeynRules derives the Feynman rules and stores them in a generic form suitable for translation to any Feynman diagram calculation program. The model can then be translated to the format specific to a particular Feynman diagram calculator via FeynRules translation interfaces. Such interfaces have been written for CalcHEP/CompHEP, FeynArts/FormCalc, MadGraph/MadEvent and Sherpa, making it possible to write a new model once and have it work in all of these programs. In this paper, we describe how to implement a new model, generate the Feynman rules, use a generic translation interface, and write a new translation interface. We also discuss the details of the FeynRules code.

description: We examine the evolution and emission of the supernova remnant (SNR) CTB109 using three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics simulations. The SNR evolves in a medium divided by a plane interface into two media with different densities and pressure equilibrium. Our results reveal that a remnant with the characteristics of CTB109 is formed provided the supernova (SN) explosion takes place in the less dense medium and also if the interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) is almost uniform. Finally, we conclude that the quasiparallel mechanism can explain the brightness synchrotron emission and the position angle of the projected ISMF reported in previous works.
