Plasmodium genes responsible for oocyst development and interaction with its Anopheline vector
Creators: name: Bushell, Ellen S. C.
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: The transmission of the malaria parasite Plasmodium is governed by a complex developmental cycle. This PhD thesis describes the transcriptional profiling of the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei developmental migration through its A. gambiae vector. The study was conducted in vivo, using a near complete P. berghei genome microarray platform. Emphasis was placed on the oocyst stage, as little is known about the genes implicated in the ookinete to oocyst transition, and oocyst maturation. The data presented here provide novel transcriptional information about Plasmodium transmission. The analysis revealed a large shift in gene utilisation as the parasite makes its transition from the motile ookinete to the sessile oocyst. Furthermore, this work has shown that different sets of co-regulated genes are important for early and late oocyst development. In addition, this PhD thesis outlines the characterisation of a novel Plasmodium formin-like protein essential for rodent malaria transmission named the male inherited sporulation factor important for transmission (misfit). MISFIT is expressed in the early mosquito stages, where the protein localises to the parasite nucleus. Misfit exhibits an absolute requirement for paternal inheritance, which is in accordance with an observed male-biased expression pattern. pbmisfitΔ ookinetes display significant ultrastructural and gene expression defects and fail to complete zygotic meiosis. However, pbmisfitΔ ookinetes retain functionality and can successfully cross the midgut epithelial barrier. In contrast, mosquito infections with pbmisfitΔ resulted in an arrest immediately upon ookinete-oocyst transformation, where defective oocysts fail to sporulate. An essential role in chromosome segregation during mitosis / meiosis is postulated for MISFIT. In conclusion, the work presented in this thesis has established the ookinete-oocyst transition as a major cell cycle check point during malaria transmission and identified misfit as the first male inherited Plasmodium gene known to affect development post-fertilisation.

description: During the month of June and part of July, 1968, the Center for Anthropological Studies operated an archaeological field school on Black Mesa on the Hopi and Navajo Indian reservations under sponsorship of the Peabody Coal Company of St. Louis, Missouri. A total of eight sites was excavated and 56 sites were surveyed. What follows is a descriptive report of these investigations. It should he emphasized that this report is mainly descriptive, and that interpretations, where they occur, are tentative. These words are being written after the second year of survey and excavation, and it can he assumed that there will be several years more work on northeastern Black Mesa. The decision was made, therefore, to produce descriptive reports of each year’s results and a final summary volume similar to the University of Utah’s descriptive Glen Canyon reports with their final interpretive volume after the close of the final season. The preliminary and descriptive nature of this report also holds true for the ecological data. Also in this regard, the Navajo archaeology will be discussed in a separate volume.

description: Alfvén-like operators are of interest in magnetohydrodynamics, which is used in plasma physics to study the macroscopic behavior of plasma. Motivated by this important and complex application, we focus on a parameter-dependent curl-div problem that can be seen as a prototype of an Alfvén-like operator, and we discretize it using isogeometric analysis based on tensor-product B-splines. The involved coefficient matrices can be very ill-conditioned, so that standard numerical solution methods perform quite poorly here. In order to overcome the difficulties caused by such ill-conditioning, a two-step strategy is proposed. First, we conduct a detailed spectral study of the coefficient matrices, highlighting the critical dependence on the different physical and approximation parameters. Second, we exploit such spectral information to design fast iterative solvers for the corresponding linear systems. For the first goal we apply the theory of (multilevel block) Toeplitz and generalized locally Toeplitz sequences, while for the second we use a combination of multigrid techniques and preconditioned Krylov solvers. Several numerical tests are provided both for the study of the spectral problem and for the solution of the corresponding linear systems.

description: This report presents the results of a Class III cultural resources survey of a portion of the right-of-way corridor for a new 69 kV subtransmission line that will extend between the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) Quail Substation, located southeast of Queen Creek, and the Florence Junction Substation, west of Florence Junction, Arizona. The survey was requested by SRP to determine if significant cultural resources were present within the right-of-way corridor that might be adversely affected by construction of the new electric line and removal of its predecessor. The effort was conducted to comply with the Arizona Antiquities Act of 1960 (as amended) and the State Historic Preservation Act of 1982, as required for leasing right-of-way from the state. Only the portion of the subtransmission line corridor located on Arizona State Trust Land was subject to the current survey (ASLD Lease Nos. RW160 [1931] and 16-4300 [1967]). The cultural resources survey was conducted on 19 and 20 May 2012 by Connie Darby and Sandra Wadsworth of Desert Archaeology, Inc., working under the authority of Arizona Antiquities Act Blanket Permit No. 2012-010bl (Arizona State Museum [ASM] Accession No. 2012-0327). Dr. Kathleen Henderson served as Principal Investigator for the project. One previously recorded archaeological site, AZ U:15:128 (ASM), was relocated and 23 isolated occurrences of prehistoric and historic cultural material were recorded within the surveyed right-of-way corridor. U:15:128 appears to have been subject to considerable amount of erosion since it was originally recorded (Adams 1989b) and, as a result, the site no longer constitutes a significant cultural resource. In the absence of significant cultural resources, a recommendation is made that construction of the new Quail to Florence Junction subtransmission line and removal of the earlier electrical line can proceed as planned.

A Study on the Integration of a High-Speed Flywheel as an Energy Storage Device in Hybrid Vehicles
Creators: name: Martinez-Gonzalez, Pablo
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: The last couple of decades have seen the rise of the hybrid electric vehicle as a compromise between the outstanding specific energy of petrol fuels and its low-cost technology, and the zero tail-gate emissions of the electric vehicle. Despite this, considerable reductions in cost and further increases in fuel economy are needed for their widespread adoption. An alternative low-cost energy storage technology for vehicles is the high-speed flywheel. The flywheel has important limitations that exclude it from being used as a primary energy source for vehicles, but its power characteristics and low-cost materials make it a powerful complement to a vehicle's primary propulsion system. This thesis presents an analysis on the integration of a high-speed flywheel for use as a secondary energy storage device in hybrid vehicles. Unlike other energy storage technologies, the energy content of the flywheel has a direct impact on the velocity of transmission. This presents an important challenge, as it means that the flywheel must be able to rotate at a speed independent of the vehicle's velocity and therefore it must be coupled via a variable speed transmission. This thesis presents some practical ways in which to accomplish this in conventional road vehicles, namely with the use of a variator, a planetary gear set or with the use of a power-split continuously variable transmission. Fundamental analyses on the kinematic behaviour of these transmissions particularly as they pertain to flywheel powertrains are presented. Computer simulations were carried out to compare the performance of various transmissions, and the models developed are presented as well. Finally the thesis also contains an investigation on the driving and road conditions that have the most beneficial effect on hybrid vehicle performance, with a particular emphasis on the effect that the road topography has on fuel economy and the significance of this.

description: An iterative algorithm is presented for solving the RPA equations of linear response. The method optimally computes the energy-weighted moments of the strength function, allowing one to match the computational effort to the intrinsic accuracy of the basic mean-field approximation, avoiding the problem of solving very large matrices. For local interactions, the computational effort for the method scales with the number of particles N_p as O(N_p^3).

Development of Ni catalysts with low metal content and improved stability in the dry reforming of methane to syngas
Creators: name: Ha, Quan Luu Manh
Publisher: name: Universität Rostock

Subjects: subject: 540 Chemistry & allied sciences

description: Catalysts with 2.5 wt% Ni supported on MgO-Al2O3 were developed for CH4 dry reform-ing (DRM) that are stable at either mild (stoichiometric) or severe (CH4-rich) conditions. Solid materials were characterized with suitable methods. Catalysts with NiO-MgO-Al2O3 solid solution were active even at 500 °C. In stoichiometric DRM, Ni catalyst modified with La and citric acid reduced both Ni re-oxidation and agglomeration, preserving high activity over 160 h. Besides, proper support pre-treatment or adding Gd3+ both offered outstandingly coking-resistant Ni-based catalysts for CH4-rich DRM over 100 h.

description: This report presents a brief review of known cultural resources and investigations within one mile of the proposed expansion to the NAUSP, as well as the results of a 23.5-acre survey within the project limits. The proposed project will expand the existing NAUSP and will be constructed by SRP on an approximate 74.7-acre parcel of land owned by Flood Control District in the City of Glendale, Arizona. The proposed project will require the construction of an aquifer recharge facility to store and recover water. The proposed work will occur at the confluence of the Agua Fria River and the New River between Glendale Avenue and Camelback Road, where a cell/basin is to be constructed within the river bed of the New River. The purpose and design of the NAUSP facility is to store water in time of surplus for later use by SRP and the cities of Avondale, Chandler, Glendale, and Peoria.
Enhancing correlation times for edge spins through dissipation

description: Spin chains with open boundaries, such as the transverse field Ising model, can display coherence times for edge spins that diverge with the system size as a consequence of almost conserved operators, the so-called strong zero modes. Here, we discuss the fate of these coherence times when the system is perturbed in two different ways. First, we consider the effects of a unitary coupling connecting the ends of the chain; when the coupling is weak and non-interacting, we observe stable long-lived harmonic oscillations between the strong zero modes. Second, and more interestingly, we consider the case when dynamics becomes dissipative. While in general dissipation induces decoherence and loss of information, here we show that particularly simple environments can actually enhance correlation times beyond those of the purely unitary case. This allows us to generalise the notion of strong zero modes to irreversible Markovian time-evolutions, thus defining conditions for {\em dissipative strong zero maps}. Our results show how dissipation could, in principle, play a useful role in protocols for storing information in quantum devices.

Level truncation and the tachyon in open bosonic string field theory

name: Taylor, Washington
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The tachyonic instability of the open bosonic string is analyzed using the level truncation approach to string field theory. We have calculated all terms in the cubic action of the string field theory describing zero-momentum interactions of up to level 20 between scalars of level 10 or less. These results are used to study the tachyon effective potential and the nonperturbative stable vacuum. We find that the energy gap between the unstable and stable vacua converges much more quickly than the coefficients of the effective tachyon potential. By including fields up to level 10, 99.91% of the energy from the bosonic D-brane tension is cancelled in the nonperturbative stable vacuum. It appears that the perturbative expansion of the effective tachyon potential around the unstable vacuum has a small but finite radius of convergence. We find evidence for a critical point in the tachyon effective potential at a small negative value of the tachyon field corresponding to this radius of convergence. We study the branch structure of the effective potential in the vicinity of this point and speculate that the tachyon effective potential is globally nonnegative.

description: The electron temperature of the plasma is one important aspect of the environment. Electrons created by photoionization or impact ionization of atmospheric gas have energies $\sim$10 eV. In an active comet coma, the gas density is high enough for rapid cooling of the electron gas to the neutral gas temperature (a few hundred kelvin). How cooling evolves in less active comets has not been studied before. Aims. We aim to investigate how electron cooling varied as comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko changed its activity by three orders of magnitude during the Rosetta mission. We used in situ data from the Rosetta plasma and neutral gas sensors. By combining Langmuir probe bias voltage sweeps and mutual impedance probe measurements, we determined at which time cold electrons formed at least 25\% of the total electron density. We compared the results to what is expected from simple models of electron cooling, using the observed neutral gas density as input. We demonstrate that the slope of the Langmuir probe sweep can be used as a proxy for the presence of cold electrons. We show statistics of cold electron observations over the two-year mission period. We find cold electrons at lower activity than expected by a simple model based on free radial expansion and continuous loss of electron energy. Cold electrons are seen mainly when the gas density indicates that an exobase may have formed. Collisional cooling of electrons following a radial outward path is not sufficient to explain the observations. We suggest that the ambipolar electric field keeps electrons in the inner coma for a much longer time, giving them time to dissipate energy by collisions with the neutrals. We conclude that better models are required to describe the plasma environment of comets. They need to include at least two populations of electrons and the ambipolar field.

Experimental research on turbulent reacting flows using gaseous and liquid fuels
Creators: name: Geipel, Philipp
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: An investigation into turbulent reacting flows in an opposed jet geometry and a sudden expansion duct has been performed. For the opposed jet geometry, measurements of the velocity and reaction progress variable were obtained in lean premixed flames. Both velocity and scalar measurements were taken using PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry). Three gaseous fuels (methane, propane and ethylene) and three liquid fuels (JP-10, cyclopentane and cyclopentene) were considered for a range of equivalence ratios. The broad range of fuels enabled an investigation of the effect of different fuel reactivities on the velocity field and flame location and also allowed the effect of the Lewis number on flame extinction to be investigated. Preliminary work included isothermal measurements of the flow between and inside the nozzles. The use of fractal grids inside the nozzle increased turbulence intensities at the nozzle exit by 100% and turbulent Reynolds numbers between 50 - 220 were achieved. Velocity and normal stress components were measured with attention focused on the inlet boundary, along the burner centreline and the stagnation plane. A circular duct, incorporating a sudden expansion step, was also used to investigate the effect of swirl on pressure oscillations within the duct, the lean flammability limits and the NOx emissions. Measurements were performed for stratified flow conditions using methane as a fuel. The results show that excessive swirl leads to an increase in local strain in the vicinity of the expansion step and makes the flame more prone to local extinction. Moderate swirl was found to lower the amplitudes of the pressure oscillations close to global extinction and also to decrease the lean extinction limit of the stratified flow conditions. However, it did not decrease the overall equivalence ratio of flows with a richer core and a leaner annulus. Flows with only air in the core flow led to an overall equivalence ratio as lean as 0.3 for methane compared with 0.6 for the uniform flow. Stratification with a fuel rich core flow and a leaner annular flow led to an increase in NOx emissions due to locally increased temperatures. The addition of moderate swirl enhanced mixing of the annular and the core flows, which resulted in a more uniform fuel distribution close to the step and a reduction in NOx-levels up to 50%.

description: An intensive survey of approximately 67 km (42 mi) of transmission line right-of-way between Kyrene and the Tonto National Forest boundary was completed by a 3-man crew in 15 days. A total of 144 field numbers were assigned to cultural materials encountered, ranging from a single flake or sherd to a large site or component thereof. Material recovered is summarized in Table 1, and locations are plotted on accompanying aerial photos. Isolated artifacts and small scatters were collected; samples (1 m radius circles) were collected from larger sites in areas of maximum density of cultural material (MD). Two previously recorded sites and 15 newly designated sites are within or adjacent to the right- of-way. A clearance recommendation is conditional upon additional work at 9 of them. This work plan for additional investigations was prepared prior to completion of analysis of material collected on the survey and does not constitute a complete report of survey results. For example, no discussion of archaeological background or survey methodology is included. Specific proposals for further investigations are based largely on field evaluations of site significance and anticipated impact of construction. Results of both the survey and the additional investigation will be combined in a single report.
Boundary Element Method for Fast Solution of Acoustic Problems: Active and Passive Noise Control
Creators: name: Brancati, Alessandro
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: This thesis presents boundary element formulations for three-dimensional acoustic problems of active (ANC) and passive (PNC) noise control. A new boundary element strategy, referred to as RABEM (Rapid Acoustic Boundary Element Method), has been formulated and implemented for acoustic problems. The assembly time for both the system matrix and the right hand side vector is accelerated using a Hierarchical-matrix approach based on the Adaptive Cross Approximation (ACA). Two different H-matrix-GMRES solvers (one without preconditioners and one with a block diagonal preconditioner) are developed and tested for low and high frequency problems including noise emanated by aircraft approaching an airport. A new formulation for solving the ANC based on attenuating the unwanted sound in a control volume (CV) rather than cancelling it at a single point is presented. The noise attenuation is obtained by minimising the square modules of two acoustic quantities - the potential and one component of the particle velocity - within the CV. The two formulations presented include a single and a double secondary source, respectively. Several examples are presented to demonstrate the e fficiency of the proposed technique. A new approach, based on sensitivity analysis, for determining the optimum locations of the CV and the optimum location/orientation of the secondary source is presented. The optimisation procedure is based upon a first order method and minimises a suitable cost function by using its gradient. The procedure to calculate the cost function gradients is explained in detail. Finally, a PNC strategy applied to the interior of an aircraft cabin is investigated. A lower noise level is achieved through the introduction of a new textile with a higher noise absorbing coe cient than a conventional textile, especially at low frequencies. The so-called "bubble concept", which consists of adding cap insertions at the sides of the passenger head, is also investigated.

description: A density functional theory based two-terminal scattering formalism that includes spin-orbit coupling and spin non-collinearity is described. An implementation using tight-binding muffin-tin orbitals combined with extensive use of sparse matrix techniques allows a wide variety of inhomogeneous structures to be flexibly modelled with various types of disorder including temperature induced lattice and spin disorder. The methodology is illustrated with calculations of the temperature dependent resistivity and magnetization damping for the important substitutional disordered magnetic alloy Permalloy (Py), Ni$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$. Comparison of calculated results with recent experimental measurements of the damping (including its temperature dependence) indicates that the scattering approach captures the most important contributions to this important property.

We employed this method to calculate the binding energies and the ultra-low energy scattering phase shifts below as well as above the break-up threshold for the three He-atom system. The method is proved to be highly successful and suitable for solving the three-body bound state and scattering problem in configuration space and thus it paves the way to study various three-atomic systems, and to calculate important quantities such as the cross-sections, recombination rates etc.

description: The U.S. Reclamation Service constructed the South Canal to carry water to the farmers on the south side of the Salt River as part of the Salt River Federal Reclamation Project. Built between 1907 and 1909, the original canal measured only two miles and diverted water from the newly erected Granite Reef Dam. The South Canal eventually became the only irrigation structure to divert water directly from the Salt River and deliver it to the south side shareholders of the Salt River Valley Water Users' Association (the Association). Controversy surrounded membership in the Association for many of the landowner's south of the Salt River. A majority of the farmers held early water rights and did not see any advantages to joining the Salt River Project (SRP) when the project first opened. The canals that supplied water to these people had their own headings or diversion points in the Salt River. Although some farmers built new irrigation ditches and laterals so they could join the Association in the early 1910s, it was not until the 1920s that almost all of the unsigned lands within the exterior boundaries of the Salt River Reservoir District became members of the Project. The original South Canal was enlarged and extended to accommodate all the water users on the south side of the Salt River, encompassing portions of the Eastern and Consolidated canals. Because the early founders of the Salt River Project saw the potential of hydropower, the Association contracted with the federal government in 1910 to build three power plants on the Salt River Project canals. Eventually three hydropower plants would be built on the South Canal. They provided needed power to an expanding Salt River Valley for commercial and domestic use. This report will detail the history of the South Canal, from its minor beginnings to becoming the primary irrigation structure carrying water to the shareholders on the southern portion of the Salt River Project.

On the stability of mycobacterial ribosomes during stasis
Creators: name: Trauner, Andrej
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Latent tuberculosis is estimated to account for over 99% of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections globally. Bacteria are believed to enter a non-­replicating persistent (NRP) state to counter the effect of oxygen and nutrient limitation during latent infection. While NRP bacteria are believed to retain some metabolic activity, it is not known how the stability and functionality of the biosynthetic apparatus is maintained. Using the Wayne hypoxia model, we focused on mycobacterial ribosomes and found that, in contrast to enteric bacteria, no higher order structures (e.g. ribosomal dimers) are formed upon entry into stasis. We devised a strategy incorporating microfluidic, proteomic and ribosomal profiling techniques to elucidate the fate of mycobacterial ribosomes during NRP. We compared the stability of wild-type ribosomes to those of mutants in the transcriptional regulator DosR, which cannot survive prolonged oxygen starvation. While stability was comparable under conditions of active growth and normoxic stasis, ΔdosR mutants showed a marked decrease in levels of 70S ribosomes and 30S ribosomal subunits under hypoxia. Microfluidic analyses were consistent with these observations and pointed to a progressive degradation of rRNA during prolonged hypoxia, with evidence of discrete rRNA cleavage. Proteomic analysis also supported a gradual degradation of ribosomes and led to the identification of S30AE proteins as possible ribosome stabilisation factors. There is an S30AE domain protein is the DosR regulon and it may contribute to the observed destabilisation of the ribosome during hypoxia in ΔdosR mutants. Macromolecular stability is further compromised during infection by the presence of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. We used mass spectrometry to assess the impact of oxidative stress on mycobacterial nucleic acids. We found that RNA was more susceptible to damage. Since only limited RNA synthesis occurs in NRP, the ability of cells to preserve intact ribosomes could be crucial for long-­term survival.
title: An Examination Into the Effects of Social Positioning and Capitalist Immersion on Gendered Attitudes Towards Homosexuality in the United States

description: Previous research on attitudes towards homosexuality has concentrated on characteristics of individuals, and neglected the capitalist structure of society that provides the contextual setting for the creation and maintenance of cultural attitudes.

This thesis uses responses collected in the general social survey of the United States between 1993 and 1998, to provide a more comprehensive explanation of differences in attitudes towards homosexuality, through an analysis of social position and the capitalist agenda. The analysis revealed significant relationships between sex, age, race, income, beliefs regarding the domestication of women, and attitudes towards homosexuality.

The analysis showed that respondents categorized as black or other were consistently more likely to hold negative attitudes towards homosexuality than the white respondents, and that attitudes towards homosexuality are becoming more liberal with the passage of time. Older

persons also held less tolerant attitudes towards homosexuality than younger persons. There exists a gendered difference in attitudes towards homosexuality, although this relationship, as well as the relationship between other demographic variables and attitudes towards homosexuality is mediated by beliefs regarding the domestication of women. These findings suggest that beliefs which are influenced by the respondents social position, are responsible for attitudes held, and also that these beliefs can alter the effects of the demographic variables.

description: Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) No. AZ-6A examines the origins, construction, use, and significance of the Theodore Roosevelt Dam Power Plant and Transformer House, located in south-central Arizona along the Salt River. The report contains a narrative description, drawings, maps, and historic photographs of the dam's power plant and transformer house. The power generating facilities at Roosevelt Dam, beginning with the 1906 temporary plant, were the first ever built by the Bureau of Reclamation. The Roosevelt power plant and transformer house, which are both addressed in this report, contribute to the significance of Roosevelt Dam for their role in Reclamation power development. The power plant also contributes to the history of the evolution and ever-expanding power system of the Salt River Project, now the second largest utility in Arizona.

description: Cephalexin (CFE) residues in animal-derived food and its deleterious effects on human health has attracted extensive attention. In this study, a specific anti-cephalexin monoclonal antibody (mAb) was used to develop an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 1.83 µg/L that was suitable for the determination of cephalexin in animal-derived foods. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) for cephalexin were from 0.44 to 0.58 µg/kg and 0.57 to 0.67 µg/kg, respectively. The recovery was from 90.1 to 103.6% with coefficients of variation (CV) less than 10.0%. In addition, the established ELISA method and high-performance liquid chromatography – mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) were used to analyze the samples with good correlation between the results. The results show that the established ic-ELISA is suitable for the determination of cephalexin in animal-derived food.

description: It is shown that the renormalized finite temperature effective potential for continuum $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory develops a non-perturbative minimum for sufficiently strong coupling, i.e. below a critical temperature. The corresponding phase can be the candidate for the confining phase of the continuum theory and becomes energetically favoured basicly due to the decay of the $A^0$ condensate into three gluons.

description: Pisot numbers are real algebraic integers bigger than 1, whose other conjugates have all modulus smaller than 1. In this paper we deal with the algorithmic problem of finding the smallest Pisot unit generating a given number field. We first solve this problem in all real fields, then we consider the analogous problem involving the so called complex Pisot numbers and we solve it in all number fields that admit such a generator, in particular all fields without CM, but not only those.
