description: This paper seeks to uncover the fiscal relationship between public transportation access, particularly the rail stations of the Chicago Transit Authority, and the Chicago housing market. In addition to determining the fiscal relationship between public transportation access and housing in Chicago, I’ll analyze how crime rates at the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) stations impact their usage. To solve these questions, I built multivariable regressions for each research question. The regression for the first research question had variables Median Home Value in USD, CTA Station Present Y/N, Cumulative Crime by Zip Code, High Crime Dummy Var, and Station & High Crime. The regression for the second research question had variables Cumulative Ridership Total, Cumulative Crime by Station, Usage/Pop Density by ¼ Mile, and Median Household Income. The data for these variables came from Social Explorer and the Chicago Data Portal. To determine the number of crimes by zip code and by ¼ mile radius of each CTA rail station, I used the geospatial software QGIS to accomplish this. The results from my first regression found that CTA rail stations will always have a positive fiscal impact on the housing market within that zip code, regardless of the number of crimes in that zip code. The second regression found that crime actually increased the number of riders per station. From a Public Policy perspective, this study reinforces the importance of public transportation access for Chicago residents and recommends two policies that will improve the efficiency of operating the Chicago Transit Authority rail system.

description: Preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) is available for detecting a majority of serious genetic conditions over the past 20 years. However, there are still lack of reference materials to validate the test performance during test development and quality control in PGT-M cycles. In this study, PGT-M reference materials containing 12 gDNA reference materials and 4 simulated embryo reference materials for thalassemia testing were successfully established and well characterized. Next generation sequencing was performed on 12 gDNA samples and 4 simulated embryo samples and the genotypes and haplotypes of all 16 PGT-M reference materials for thalassemia showed no discordance from 4 labs with varies testing workflows. And the well-characterized PGT-M reference materials achieved good stability even after 3 years of storage. Therefore, the PGT-M reference materials for thalassemia established in this work will enable the standardization and high accuracy of PGT-M in clinical cases. This pioneer methodology can be easily expanded to develop PGT-M reference materials for other monogenic disease.

description: Metamaterials are engineered materials, whose spatially periodic arrangement of their constituent materials endows the composite assembly with rather unconventional properties, when macroscopically observed. In the context of the three wave-supporting physics regimes -elastodynamics, acoustics, and electromagnetics- metamaterials present unique opportunities for previously unimaginable user control over the resulting wave behavior. To date, the design of metamaterials is mostly done on an ad hoc basis, relying mostly on one-of-a-kind or incremental physical experiments and forward computational modeling. This dissertation introduces a systematic methodology, rooted in inverse problem theory, for engineering the dispersive properties of periodic media to meet a priori, user-defined, wave control objectives. Both scalar and vector waves are considered. In the developed methodology, the material properties and geometry parameters of the unit cell of the periodic medium become the inversion variables. The inversion is driven by the user-defined wave control objective, constrained by the dispersive characteristics of the unit cell. Though the methodology is flexible enough and can accommodate fairly broad dispersion engineering objectives, here the focus is on band-gaping propagating waves at user-defined frequency ranges. Numerical results in the frequency domain demonstrate that the inversion process yields unit cells that indeed attain the user-defined dispersive behavior. The inverted-for unit cells are then used to build metamaterial assemblies of not only finite periodicity, as opposed to infinite, but of fairly narrow periodicity, and are tested in the time domain against broadband excitations: it is shown that it is possible to attain the desired wave control with sub-wavelength size metamaterial assemblies.

description: Unsupervised text style transfer task aims to rewrite a text into target style while preserving its main content. Traditional methods rely on the use of a fixed-sized vector to regulate text style, which is difficult to accurately convey the style strength for each individual token. In fact, each token of a text contains different style intensity and makes different contribution to the overall style. Our proposed method addresses this issue by assigning individual style vector to each token in a text, allowing for fine-grained control and manipulation of the style strength. Additionally, an adversarial training framework integrated with teacher-student learning is introduced to enhance training stability and reduce the complexity of high-dimensional optimization. The results of our experiments demonstrate the efficacy of our method in terms of clearly improved style transfer accuracy and content preservation in both two-style transfer and multi-style transfer settings.

Power-Over,Power-To,& Power-From':An lntersectional Examination of Power in the Context of Adolescent SV

description: Sexual violence has been and continues to be used as a tool of oppression that reinforces existing power asymmetries based on ability, age, class, gender, and sexual orientation. Thus, sexual violence does not happen at random, but follows a pattern in that those with power commit sexual violence against those with limited power. This is absolutely the case when it comes to sexual violence among adolescents. Given the limited power that teens hold as well as the alarmingly high rates of sexual violence among this age group, adolescents are a group persistently targeted for rape and sexual assault. Despite its relevance, the research on power and teens survivors of sexual assault is surprisingly limited. Given this gap, this study explores how power is discussed by survivors of adolescent sexual violence. Using a qualitative research approach and directed content analysis, I sought to answer the following research questions: (1) What is the context (e.g., the who & what) in which power as ‘Power Over,’ ‘To,’ and ‘From’ come up in survivors’ stories (i.e., before, during, and after the assault)? and (2) How do survivors discuss aspects of their identities in relation to these different forms of power? The results of this study indicate that power and intersectionality are a significant part of adolescent survivors’ lived experiences, and have important implications for the work currently being done by researchers, practitioners, and policymakers who aim to improve system responses to adolescent survivors of sexual assault.

description: Cellular communication becomes the major mode of communication in present century. With the development of this phase of communication the globalization process is also in its peak of speed. The development of cellular communication is largely depending on the improvement and stability of Base Transceiver Station (BTS) room. So for the purpose of the development of cellular communication a large numbered BTS rooms are installed throughout the world. To ensure proper support from BTS rooms there must be a security system to avoid any unnecessary vulnerability. Therefore multiple alarm system is designed to secure the BTS rooms from any undesired circumstances. This system is designed with a PIC Microcontroller as a main controller and a several sensors are interfaced with it to provide high temperature alarm, smoke alarm, door alarm and water alarm. All these alarms are interfaced with the alarm box in the BTS room which provides the current status directly to Network Management Centre (NMC) of a Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication network.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The study measured occupational exposure to engineered nanomaterials, silicon dioxide, and titanium dioxide, used in a liquid spraying process to develop hydrophobic coatings on metals and glass sheets inside an academic research laboratory. The study measured the total number of airborne particle concentrations, mass concentrations in personal breathing zones, and the surface contamination of silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide. The study is motivated by the limited application and replication of the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health Nanomaterial Exposure Assessment Technique (NEAT) 2.0. The study replicated NEAT 2.0, measured occupational exposure to engineered nanomaterials, and evaluated NEAT 2.0 for improvements and limitations. The results showed that personal breathing zone sampling might not detect occupational exposure in experiments with small mass quantities of engineered nanomaterials. Surface wipe sampling, which is not required for NEAT 2.0, found the most significant amount of potential occupational exposure to researchers inside the laboratory. The study concludes that NEAT 2.0 is a comprehensive exposure assessment that can be modified and adapted to work in academic laboratories. The results indicate that a modified NEAT 2.0 with the mandatory addition of surface wipe sampling allows for a more thorough approach to measuring occupational exposure to engineered nanomaterials and nanoparticles in academic laboratories.

description: Recently, neural networks have spread into numerous fields including many safety-critical systems. Neural networks are built (and trained) by programming in frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch. Developers apply a rich set of pre-defined layers to manually program neural networks or to automatically generate them (e.g., through AutoML). Composing neural networks with different layers is error-prone due to the non-trivial constraints that must be satisfied in order to use those layers. In this work, we propose an approach to automatically repair erroneous neural networks. The challenge is in identifying a minimal modification to the network so that it becomes valid. Modifying a layer might have cascading effects on subsequent layers and thus our approach must search recursively to identify a "globally" minimal modification. Our approach is based on an executable semantics of deep learning layers and focuses on four kinds of errors which are common in practice. We evaluate our approach for two usage scenarios, i.e., repairing automatically generated neural networks and manually written ones suffering from common model bugs. The results show that we are able to repair 100% of a set of randomly generated neural networks (which are produced with an existing AI framework testing approach) effectively and efficiently (with an average repair time of 21.08s) and 93.75% of a collection of real neural network bugs (with an average time of 3min 40s).
Effects of a Chicago Complete Streets Project on Travel Behavior and Perceptions

description: American street design took an autocentric approach in much of the 20th century, designed for mobility above all other metrics. This meant prioritizing “fast, cheap travel” over other aspects of the streetscape, which often meant designing streets to maximize automobile speeds over all else (Burden and Litman 2011). Over the course of the last couple of decades, however, the conversation surrounding street design has shifted dramatically. The focus has moved from mobility alone to accessibility of multiple modes of transportation, with special attention on how the paradigm of mobility affects users’ “ability to reach desired goods, services, and activities safely” (Burden and Litman 2011). Out of this desire for streets that could be safely used by multiple modes of transportation, including bikers and pedestrians, the Complete Streets movement has taken hold as a standard for American cities in building and retrofitting streets around the country (McCann 2013). Barbara McCann and others founded Complete Streets on the idea that streets should be designed with considerations of safety for multiple types of users by prioritizing those without motorized vehicles over those in cars (McCann 2013).

description: We observed distinct interlayer shear mode Raman spectra for trilayer graphene with ABA and ABC stacking order. There are two rigid-plane shear-mode phonon branches in trilayer graphene. We found that ABA trilayers exhibit pronounced Raman response from the high-frequency shear branch, without any noticeable response from the low-frequency branch. In contrast, ABC trilayers exhibit no response from the high-frequency shear branch, but significant Raman response from the low-frequency branch. Such complementary behaviors of Raman shear modes can be explained by the distinct symmetry of the two trilayer allotropes. The strong stacking-order dependence was not found in the layer-breathing modes, and thus represents a unique characteristic of the shear modes.

description: African American (AA) youth with disabilities face significant challenges as they transition to adulthood. Currently, as a group, post-secondary education, employment, and living independently outcomes remain poor. As of 2021, only a quarter of African Americans with disabilities were employed (U.S. Department of Labor, n.d. ). Without the proper connections, and pre-employment transition services, African American youth with disabilities and their families struggle to find adequate support to help meet their post-school outcomes. State vocational rehabilitation (VR) departments are among the top collaborators of transition services and funding for youth with disabilities. The current qualitative investigation explored the experiences of four urban and eight suburban youth with disabilities and their families related to transition services provided by VR. Results indicate that young adults are not accessing available accommodations or completing their programs in post-secondary institutions. Also, youth were gainfully employed in entry-level jobs and did not access many adult services. Implications for collaboration between districts, families, and VR are offered. Suggestions for practice and future research are also provided.

description: We propose a new quantization method for superconducting electronic circuits involving a Josephson junction device coupled to a linear microwave environment. The method is based on an exact impedance synthesis of the microwave environment considered as a blackbox with impedance function Z(s). The synthesized circuit captures dissipative dynamics of the system with resistors coupled to the reactive part of the circuit in a non-trivial way. We quantize the circuit and compute relaxation rates following previous formalisms for lumped element circuit quantization. Up to the errors in the fit our method gives an exact description of the system and its losses.

description: In this paper we present a novel extended Krylov subspace reduced-order modeling technique to efficiently simulate time- and frequency-domain wavefields in open complex structures. To simulate the extension to infinity, we use an optimal complex-scaling method which is equivalent to an optimized perfectly matched layer in which the frequency is fixed. Wavefields propagating in strongly inhomogeneous open domains can now be modeled as a non-entire function of the complex-scaled wave operator. Since this function contains a square root singularity, we apply an extended Krylov subspace technique to construct fast converging reduced-order models. Specifically, we use a modified version of the extended Krylov subspace algorithm as proposed by Jagels and Reichel [Linear Algebra Appl., Vol. 434, pp. 1716 - 1732, 2011], since this algorithm allows us to balance the computational costs associated with computing powers of the wave operator and its inverse. Numerical experiments from electromagnetics and acoustics illustrate the performance of the method.

description: Supersonic vortex plane and axisymmetric flows of non-viscous non-heatconductive gas with arbitrary thermodynamic properties in the vicinity of a steady shock wave are studied. The differential equations describing the gas flow exterior to the discontinuity surface and the dynamic compatibility conditions at this discontinuity are used. The gas flow nonuniformity in the shock vicinity is described by the space derivatives of the gasdynamic parameters at a point on the shock surface. The parameters are the gas pressure, density, velocity vector. The derivatives with respect to the directions of the streamline and normal to it, and of the shock surface and normal to it are considered. Space derivatives of all gasdynamic parameters are expressed through the flow nonisobaric factor along the streamline, the streamline curvature, and the flow vorticity and non-isoenthalpy factors. An algorithm for these factors of the gas flow downstream a shock wave determination is developed. Examples of these factors calculation for imperfect oxygen and thermodynamically perfect gas are presented. The influence coefficients of the upstream flow factors on the downstream flow factors are calculated. As an illustration for flows with upstream Mach number 5 it is shown that the flow vorticity factor is the most influenced by the thermodynamical gas properties. The gas flow in the vicinity of the shock is described by the isolines of gasdynamic parameters. Uniform plane and axisymmetric flows on different distances from the axis of symmetry are examined; the isobars, isopycnics, isotachs and isoclines are used to characterize the downstream flow behind a curved shock in an imperfect gas.

description: Critical air quality levels, threatening green house gas emissions, unreliable transportation systems are only some of the most concerning aspects of the worldwide society. Among the potential applications of Urban Air Mobility, an airport shuttling system is starting to take the shape: it consists of passengers air transportation to and from local airports over fixed routes. In this research, an airport shuttling service for three main European cities is designed and evaluated under three perspectives: the system capacity, total costs and environmental sustainability. The study consists of defining a model, which based on standard set of metrics and assumptions, can be a reliable representation of a future service in the real world. By defining input parameters and formulas, three main variables are calculated for each city and airport to evaluate and perform quantitative and qualitative analyses on the outcomes obtained. The methodology suggested is used to investigate the potential introduction of such service in the European landscape and it should provide a backbone for future research.
Multiscale Computational Model for Polymorphism and Growth of Crystals in Solution Crystallization

description: Understanding the self-assembly of molecules during crystallization is critical for the precise synthesis of crystalline materials. Diverse types of materials such nanomaterials, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), proteins, zeolites, metal- and covalent-organic frameworks are manufactured using crystallization. Although crystallization is widely used, the relationship between molecular events during crystallization and the outcome of crystallization is not fully known. Such understanding is limited because of a large number of entities, long time and length scales, highly stochastic nature, presence of multiple energy minima in the crystal energy landscape, and complex interaction of solute-solvent molecules involved in the process of crystallization. To gain mechanistic insights and relate the outcome of crystallization with molecular events, I derive a multi-scale model. The multi-scale model combines molecular simulations, a semi-classical double-well approach, non-equilibrium sampling techniques, and continuous mathematical models to relate the solute-solvent interactions with the experimentally observable properties such as nucleation and growth rates. The multi-scale model is tested with the help of small organic molecules such as glutamic acid and histidine, as well as porous crystalline frameworks such as UiO-66 and COF-5. The model can reproduce the experimental results and link the smaller time-scale events, such as the exchange of solvent molecules in the solvation shell, with the experimentally observed crystal structure and morphology. In the case of crystallization of organic frameworks, the model can also predict the rate of formation of crystals due to oriented attachment quantitatively. Furthermore, the mechanistic insights derived from such analysis unify the theoretical and empirical observations laid down since the inception of crystallization research.

description: Exponential-family random graph models (ERGMs) are probabilistic network models that are parametrized by sufficient statistics based on structural (i.e., graph-theoretic) properties. The ergm package for the R statistical computing system is a collection of tools for the analysis of network data within an ERGM framework. Many different network properties can be employed as sufficient statistics for ERGMs by using the model terms defined in the ergm package; this functionality can be expanded by the creation of packages that code for additional network statistics. Here, our focus is on the addition of statistics based on graphlets. Graphlets are small, connected, and non-isomorphic induced subgraphs that describe the topological structure of a network. We introduce an R package called ergm.graphlets that enables the use of graphlet properties of a network within the ergm package of R. The ergm.graphlets package provides a complete list of model terms that allows to incorporate statistics of any 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-node graphlet into ERGMs. The new model terms of ergm.graphlets package enable both ERG modelling of global structural properties and investigation of relationships between nodal attributes (i.e., covariates) and local topologies around nodes.

description: Recent highly idealized model studies of lubricated nanofriction for two crystalline sliding surfaces with an interposed thin solid crystalline lubricant layer showed that the overall relative velocity of the lubricant $v_{\rm lub} / v_{\rm slider}$ depends only on the ratio of the lattice spacings, and retains a strictly constant value even when system parameters are varied within a wide range. This peculiar "quantized" dynamical locking was understood as due to the sliding-induced motion of misfit dislocations, or soliton structures. So far, the practical relevance of this concept to realistic sliding three dimensional crystals has not been demonstrated. In this work, by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical considerations, we realize a realistic three-dimensional crystal-lubricant-crystal geometry. Results show that the flux of lubricant particles associated to the advancing soliton lines gives rise here too to a quantized velocity ratio. Moreover, depending on the interface lattice spacing mismatch, both forward and backward quantized motion of the lubricant is predicted. The persistence under realistic conditions of the dynamically pinned state and quantized sliding is further investigated by varying sliding speed, temperature, load, and lubricant film thickness. The possibilities of experimental observation of quantized sliding are also discussed.

description: The contribution of one neutron stripping cross section to the total reaction cross section has been studied for $^9$Be projectile incident on $^{169}$Tm, $^{181}$Ta, $^{187}$Re and $^{197}$Au targets around Coulomb barrier energy. The measured one neutron stripping cross sections for these systems have been compared with the coupled channel calculations. The recently developed global set of optical model potential parameters for $^9$Be projectile has been used in the present calculations. The cumulative of measured complete fusion (CF), incomplete fusion (ICF), one neutron stripping and calculated non-capture breakup (NCBU) cross sections is found to explain almost the reaction cross sections for all the targets. A very small contribution from target inelastic states and elastic breakup may contribute to the remaining part. The percentage fraction of cross section for CF, ICF, one neutron stripping, and NCBU over reaction cross section show the dominance of neutron transfer and NCBU at below barrier energies while CF and ICF processes have the major contribution at above barrier energies.

description: Improving the conversion efficiency of solar energy to electricity is most important to mankind. For single-junction photovoltaic solar-cells, the Shockley-Queisser thermodynamic efficiency limit is extensively due to the heat dissipation, inherently accompanying the quantum process of electro-chemical potential generation. Concepts such as solar thermo-photovoltaics and thermo-photonics, have been suggested to harness this wasted heat, yet efficiencies exceeding the Shockley-Queisser limit have not been demonstrated due to the challenge of operating at high temperatures. Here, we present a highly efficient converter based on endothermic photoluminescence, which operates at relative low temperatures. The thermally induced blue-shifted photoluminescence of a low-bandgap absorber is coupled to a high-bandgap photovoltaic cell. The high absorber's photo-current and the high cell's voltage results in 69% maximal theoretical conversion efficiencies. We experimentally demonstrate tenfold thermal-enhancement of useful radiation for the high-bandgap cell and 107% enhancement in average photon energy. This paves the way for introducing disruptive-innovation in photovoltaics.

Rockin' Out: How the Synchrony and Identity-Relevance of Gestures Affect Musical Identity Perception

description: The degree to which people synchronize their movements to music increases how socially bonded people to those around them also moving to the same music. However, how they are moving to the music may be of importance to their social perceptions of others. For example, if you are a huge fan of Metallica and you went to one of their shows and saw two other people––one toe tapping to the beat and the other intensely headbanging––who would think shares your musical identity more strongly? Although synchrony to music might “allow[s] skilled participation in ritualized performances to serve as a hard-to-fake indicator of group membership” (Savage et al., 2020, p. 8), the study of “ritualized performances” as they relate to social and musical identities has been limited to partners tapping along together or marching together, which are divorced from their social context. Across a pilot and two studies, I examine how performing gestures that demarcate a certain musical identity from another—which I call identity-relevant gestures—affects the extent to which a performer is viewed as a fan of a specific type of music (in this case, hard rock music). I test how the perceiver’s own identification as a hard rock fan, the expertise with which the gesture is performed, and whether the gesture is performed synchronously or asynchronously affect the perceptions of hard rock fandom of the performer. Finally, I examine how these gesture characteristics and perceivers’ social identity affect stereotypes of warmth and competence of the performer. I found that performing identity-relevant gestures, demonstrating one’s identity expertise, and moving synchronously to music all afford a gesturer’s identity, warmth, and competence. Perceivers who identified as fans themselves were more likely to rate targets as fans than people who did not identify as fans. Finally, movement related cues such as identity-relevant gestures and synchrony to music were particularly effective in demonstrating identity, when other symbolic and visual cues were not present (e.g., clothing and physical appearance of person). Thus, it appears that synchrony as a social binding agent depends on how people synchronize with each other and not simply that they synchronize.

description: The most consumed urban crops having many benefits for human health in the northeast Black Sea black cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.var.acephale) leaf and theirs own grown soils were collected from Black Sea cities and towns; Rize, Trabzon, Giresun, Ordu ve Samsun of Turkey from totally 55 stations to determine the element levels in percent of the black cabbage. It is purposed that to obtain the data for each city in terms of element distribution. This study is a very comprehensive work covering almost the entire eastern Black Sea region for elemental measurements in black cabbage and its soil and comparing them between provinces and districts. The samples were analyzed by using Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) technique that is a nondestructive method by giving reliable results. The obtained data were evaluated by using the ordinary cricking method and some statistical methods (Mann-Whitney- U Test, Oneway-ANOVA, Pearson and Spearman-Brown correlation test) to determine the correlations between soils, the black cabbage and both compared the element levels between the sampling points. The statistical analysis in soil and black cabbage samples were carried out for 19 and 11 elements, respectively. Mg (Magnesium), K (Potassium), Ca (Calcium), Al (Aluminum), Si (Silica), P (Phosphor), S (Sulphur), Ti (Titanium), Fe (Iron), Sr (Strontium), V (Vanadium), Cr (Chromium), Mn (Manganese) for the black cabbage sample and Na (Sodium), Mg, Al, Si, P, S, K, Ca, Ti, Fe, Cu (Copper), Zn (Zinc), Sr, V, Cr, Mn, As (Arsenic), Rb (Rubidium) and Pb (Lead) for soil samples were determined. The determining elements for soils and the black cabbage samples were compared between the working provinces. The obtained data showed that the element distribution is similar and not showed a statistical difference for both between each station and cities. Besides, the trace elements in soils are not much affected the black cabbage however Al was found in the cabbage even it is less.

description: The recent BICEP2 measurement of B-modes in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background suggests that inflation was driven by a field at an energy scale of $2\times 10^{16}$ GeV. I explore the potential of upcoming CMB polarization experiments to further constrain the physics underlying inflation. If the signal is confirmed, then two sets of experiments covering larger area will shed light on inflation. Low resolution measurements can pin down the tensor to scalar ratio at the percent level, thereby distinguishing models from one another. A high angular resolution experiment will be necessary to measure the tilt of the tensor spectrum, testing the consistency relation that relates the tilt to the amplitude.

description: The limiting extremal processes of the branching Brownian motion (BBM), the two-speed BBM, and the branching random walk are known to be randomly shifted decorated Poisson point processes (SDPPP). In the proofs of those results, the Laplace functional of the limiting extremal process is shown to satisfy $L[θ_y f]=g(y-τ_f)$ for any nonzero, nonnegative, compactly supported, continuous function $f$, where $θ_y$ is the shift operator, $τ_f$ is a real number that depends on $f$, and $g$ is a real function that is independent of $f$. We show that, under some assumptions, this property characterizes the structure of SDPPP. Moreover, when it holds, we show that $g$ has to be a convolution of the Gumbel distribution with some measure. The above property of the Laplace functional is closely related to a `freezing phenomenon' that is expected by physicists to occur in a wide class of log-correlated fields, and which has played an important role in the analysis of various models. Our results shed light on this intriguing phenomenon and provide a natural tool for proving an SDPPP structure in these and other models.
