description: We exhibit large classes of local actions for the vacuum Einstein equations. In presence of fermions, or more generally of matter which couple to the connection, these actions lead to inequivalent equations revealing an arbitrary number of parameters. Even in the pure gravitational sector, any corresponding quantum theory would depend on these parameters.

description: Recent data suggest that SRC family kinases (SFKs) could represent potential therapeutic targets for rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most common soft-tissue sarcoma in children. Here, we assessed the effect of a recently developed selective SFK inhibitor (a pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivative, called SI221) on RMS cell lines. SI221, which showed to be mainly effective against the SFK member YES, significantly reduced cell viability and induced apoptosis, without affecting non-tumor cells, such as primary human skin fibroblasts and differentiated C2C12 cells. Moreover, SI221 decreased in vitro cell migration and invasion and reduced tumor growth in a RMS xenograft model. SFK inhibition also induced muscle differentiation in RMS cells by affecting the NOTCH3 receptor-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) axis, which regulates the balance between proliferation and differentiation. Overall, our findings suggest that SFK inhibition, besides reducing RMS cell growth and invasive potential, could also represent a differentiation therapeutic strategy for RMS.

Magnetic blackbody shift of hyperfine transitions for atomic clocks

description: We derive an expression for the magnetic blackbody shift of hyperfine transitions such as the cesium primary reference transition which defines the second. The shift is found to be a complicated function of temperature, and has a T^2 dependence only in the high-temperature limit. We also calculate the shift of ground-state p_1/2 hyperfine transitions which have been proposed as new atomic clock transitions. In this case interaction with the p_3/2 fine-structure multiplet may be the dominant effect.

description: We provide a new analysis of the system of partial differential equations describing the radial and vertical equilibria of the plasma in accretion disks. In particular, we show that the partial differential system can be separated once a definite, oscillatory (or hyperbolic) form for the radial dependence of the relevant physical quantities is assumed. The system is thus reduced to an ordinary differential system in the vertical dimensionless coordinate. The resulting equations can be integrated analytically in the limit of small magnetic pressure. We complete our analysis with a direct numerical integration of the more general case. The main result is that a ring-like density profile (i.e., radial oscillations in the mass density) can appear even in the limit of small magnetic pressure.

description: Engineering of Sport 15 - Proceedings from the 15th International Conference on the Engineering of Sport (ISEA 2024)
Trail running shoes feature polymer lugs on the outsole to enhance grip performance on gravel and sandy surfaces during trail running competitions. The material of the lugs is a soft material such as rubber, and grip performance varies depending on their shape. Therefore, the design of lug shapes and their arrangement is highly important. When comparing commercially available shoes, it become clear that each shoe has different lug shapes and arrangements. In this study, contact analysis of a rubber lug and sandy surface were performed to establish a design method for trail running lugs. Sandy soil was simulated using SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) particles, and the frictional resistance force of a lug digging into the sandy surface was evaluated.
Self-assembling nanoparticles encapsulating zoledronic acid revert multidrug resistance in cancer cells

description: The overexpression of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters makes tumor cells simultaneously resistant to several cytotoxic drugs. Impairing the energy metabolism of multidrug resistant (MDR) cells is a promising chemosensitizing strategy, but many metabolic modifiers are too toxic in vivo. We previously observed that the aminobisphosphonate zoledronic acid inhibits the activity of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), a master regulator of cancer cell metabolism. Free zoledronic acid, however, reaches low intratumor concentration. We synthesized nanoparticle formulations of the aminobisphosphonate that allow a higher intratumor delivery of the drug. We investigated whether they are effective metabolic modifiers and chemosensitizing agents against human MDR cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. At not toxic dosage, nanoparticles carrying zoledronic acid chemosensitized MDR cells to a broad spectrum of cytotoxic drugs, independently of the type of ABC transporters expressed. The nanoparticles inhibited the isoprenoid synthesis and the Ras/ERK1/2-driven activation of HIF-1α, decreased the transcription and activity of glycolytic enzymes, the glucose flux through the glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid cycle, the electron flux through the mitochondrial respiratory chain, the synthesis of ATP. So doing, they lowered the ATP-dependent activity of ABC transporters, increasing the chemotherapy efficacy in vitro and in vivo. These effects were more pronounced in MDR cells than in chemosensitive ones and were due to the inhibition of farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPPS), as demonstrated in FPPS-silenced tumors. Our work proposes nanoparticle formulations of zoledronic acid as the first not toxic metabolic modifiers, effective against MDR tumors.
Dimensional Reduction, Monopoles and Dynamical Symmetry Breaking

description: We consider SU(2)-equivariant dimensional reduction of Yang-Mills-Dirac theory on manifolds of the form M x CP(1), with emphasis on the effects of non-trivial magnetic flux on CP(1). The reduction of Yang-Mills fields gives a chain of coupled Yang-Mills-Higgs systems on M with a Higgs potential leading to dynamical symmetry breaking, as a consequence of the monopole fields. The reduction of SU(2)-symmetric fermions gives massless Dirac fermions on M transforming under the low-energy gauge group with Yukawa couplings, again as a result of the internal U(1) fluxes. The tower of massive fermionic Kaluza-Klein states also has Yukawa interactions and admits a natural SU(2)-equivariant truncation by replacing CP(1) with a fuzzy sphere. In this approach it is possible to obtain exactly massless chiral fermions in the effective field theory with Yukawa interactions, without any further requirements. We work out the spontaneous symmetry breaking patterns and determine the complete physical particle spectrum in a number of explicit examples.

RB1 dual role in proliferation and apoptosis: Cell fate control and implications for cancer therapy

description: Inactivation of the retinoblastoma (RB1) tumor suppressor is one of the most frequent and early recognized molecular hallmarks of cancer. RB1, although mainly studied for its role in the regulation of cell cycle, emerged as a key regulator of many biological processes. Among these, RB1 has been implicated in the regulation of apoptosis, the alteration of which underlies both cancer development and resistance to therapy. RB1 role in apoptosis, however, is still controversial because, depending on the context, the apoptotic cues, and its own status, RB1 can act either by inhibiting or promoting apoptosis. Moreover, the mechanisms whereby RB1 controls both proliferation and apoptosis in a coordinated manner are only now beginning to be unraveled. Here, by reviewing the main studies assessing the effect of RB1 status and modulation on these processes, we provide an overview of the possible underlying molecular mechanisms whereby RB1, and its family members, dictate cell fate in various contexts. We also describe the current antitumoral strategies aimed at the use of RB1 as predictive, prognostic and therapeutic target in cancer. A thorough understanding of RB1 function in controlling cell fate determination is crucial for a successful translation of RB1 status assessment in the clinical setting.

Public corporations under the Commonwealth of Australia

description: My interest in public corporations was stimulated by a study of the European Coal and Steel Community undertaken during 1952. This international public corporation is of particular interest both administratively, because it has its own \Parliament\" \"Cabinet\" and \"Court\" created to act as channels for liaison accountability and control between the Community and its partner nations and politically because it represents one of the earliest positive achievements in the movement for a United Europe. It became apparent to me that although much had been written on the public corporation as the vehicle for nationalisation in Britain no recent attempt had been made in Australia to present an overall picture of the use made of the corporation in this country. Many writers such as Professor P.A. Bland and Sir Frederick Eggleston have contributed valuable articles from time to time over the last thirty-odd years on various aspects of the corporation while other historical accounts of particular corporations are available. Although it was suggested to me that I might examine closely one corporation or a small group of corporations for my thesis I have preferred to try to present a cross-section of all corporations in Australian Commonwealth experience. This has involved a brief consideration of the origins of the \"corporation movement\" in the Australian colonies of various developments in theory which may or my not have affected the shape of actual corporations and of the political background to the various creations and abolitions of corporations as well as the actual administrative provisions themselves. I am well aware that the material in this thesis will not satisfy anyone who is seeking a comprehensive account of a particular corporation. In a sense and with a few notable exceptions the individual studies that are in existence tend to be written from the point of view of the function of the particular corporation - banking or broadcasting or perhaps economics. My intention is rather to examine the Commonwealth corporations from the point of view of public administration which I believe to be closely related to and an integral part of the wider field of political science."

description: The cosmopolitan distribution and adaptive radiation of sculpins (subfamily Cottoidea) demonstrates their ability to thrive in a variety of benthic aquatic habitats. Tidepool sculpins (Family Psychrolutidae, subfamily Oligocottinae) exhibit several morphological and reproductive adaptations to intertidal zones. Internal insemination and an enlarged genital papilla are present in some tidepool sculpins, but sexual dimorphism and reproductive morphology has not been assessed across the subfamily. In this study, I examine oligocottid reproductive morphology and sexual dimorphism, specifically the genital papillae, pelvic, and anal fins. Museum specimens of all seventeen species of the subfamily were photographed. Wooly sculpin (Clinocottus analis) were collected for a targeted study on sexual dimorphism and were cleared and stained to reveal differences in pelvic girdle modification across sex. Specimens were landmarked and geometric morphometrics were conducted on the ventral anatomy to analyze shape change between sexes. Sexual dimorphism was found to occur in select groupings across the subfamily. Differences in wooly sculpin ventral shape and the pelvic girdle between sexes were also documented. Documenting reproductive morphology of tidepool sculpins serves to further our understanding of sculpin reproductive adaptation to an intertidal lifestyle and sexual dimorphism in teleost fishes.

description: Protein amyloid fibrils are a form of linear protein aggregates that are implicated in many neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we study the dynamics of amyloid fibril elongation by performing Langevin dynamic simulations on a coarse-grained model of peptides. Our simulation results suggest that the elongation process is dominated by a series of local minimum due to frustration in monomer-fibril interactions. This rugged energy landscape picture indicates that the amount of recycling of monomers at the fibrils' ends before being fibrilized is substantially reduced in comparison to the conventional two-step elongation model. This picture, along with other predictions discussed, can be tested with current experimental techniques.

description: Recent studies have shown that electronic cigarettes (or e-cigarettes) may produce high levels of aldehydes, especially from using flavored e-liquids, but results are presented with high variation. The goal of this study was to evaluate the impact of flavoring and e-liquid composition on the level of aldehydes in the aerosol produced from 3rd-gen Vaporesso and 4th-gen JUUL e-cigarettes using an in-house apparatus. Aerosol samples were collected via 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine cartridges and analyzed with high performance liquid chromatography. Results for Vaporesso showed the formaldehyde concentrations to be 0.563 ± 0.177 µg/puff, 0.730 ± 0.181 µg/puff, and 0.612 ± 0.096 µg/puff for unflavored, vanillin flavored, and acetovanillone flavored samples, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between the mean formaldehyde concentrations in flavored e-liquids compared to unflavored e-liquid. In addition, traces of unreacted flavorings were detected in the chromatograms of aerosol samples. These results indicated that flavoring chemicals specifically might not contribute to the aldehyde concentration measured under normal puffing condition. Results for JUUL showed that Virginia Tobacco pods produced a formaldehyde concentration of 0.060 ± 0.030 µg/puff, whereas it was 0.014 ± 0.013 µg/puff for Menthol pods. This shows that Virginia Tobacco pods produce six times more formaldehyde than Menthol pods, a statistically significant difference, indicating that the choice of pod flavor impacts the concentration of formaldehyde. The concentration of nicotine did not have a significant influence on formaldehyde production for these two flavors. Combined results from Vaporesso and JUUL demonstrated the need to further explore other constituents in the e-liquid that might contribute to the aldehyde levels found in 3rd-gen Vaporesso and 4th-gen e-cigarette devices.

description: Objective: To compare hip muscle strength and functional performance in football players with and without hip dysplasia and investigate if the relationships were modified by sex. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: This study compared football players with hip dysplasia (HD group) and without hip dysplasia (control group). Hip muscle strength (Nm/kg) and functional task performance were assessed in both groups. Linear regression with generalized estimating equations were used to assess differences between groups. Sex was assessed as a potential effect modifier. Results: 101 football players were included (HD group, n = 50, control group, n = 87). There was no difference in hip muscle strength or functional performance between the HD group and the control group. Results ranged from hip extension strength (Estimate −0.13.95%CI: 0.29 to 0.02, P = 0.087) to hip external rotation strength (Estimate 0.00.95%CI: 0.05 to 0.05, P = 0.918). No relationships were modified by sex or age. Conclusions: Similar levels of hip muscle strength and functional performance were found in active football players with and without hip dysplasia. These findings differ from other studies. This may be due to our cohort having less advanced hip dysplasia than the surgical populations that have been previously investigated, or due to a beneficial effect of football participation on muscle strength and functional performance in people with hip dysplasia.

The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
Calibration of vortex tunnel.
Creators: name: Wright, Alan Walter
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: A description is given of the installation layout of the tunnel in its temporary building on the University site at Sandy Bay. Investigation of the tunnel flow has revealed that it is satisfactory from the points of view of symmetry and freedom from separation for the proposed blade testing. Curves for mass flow versus intake pressure drop have been drawn. An initial deflection in one piece of the drive Shaft causes considerable vibrations in the outlet section at approximately 400 r.p.m. away from that speed the vibrations are negligible. Suggestions are made within for future improvement in instrumentation to obtain the three dimensional flow measurement in the working section.

A study of the ecology of Tasmanian sphagnum peatlands
Creators: name: Whinam, Jennie
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania

description: The ecology of Sphagnum peatlands in the southern hemisphere has been poorly understood. Comparisons with northern hemisphere literature suggest that Tasmanian Sphagnum peatlands are limited in their morphology and geomorphic expression, possibly due to relatively low effective precipitation. While Sphagnum bogs tend to occupy nutrient poor situations in the northern hemisphere, in Tasmania they do not occur on the poorest substrates, despite climatic suitability. To provide data on spatial variability of Tasmanian Sphagnum mires, a survey of 137 sites across Tasmania was carried out. Plant species composition and cover, peat depths and height of hummocks were recorded. Climatic data were generated by using the computing package BIOCLIM. Peats from a subset of samples were analysed for their nutrient composition. Eight ecologically distinct groups spanning an almost continuous gradient from high to low altitude sites were recognised. Floristic variation between sites along this gradient can largely be explained by location along secondary gradients of nutrient availability and disturbance (fire). In a glasshouse experiment, the dry matter biomass of S. cristatum showed no significant relative effects when subjected to drought, fertiliser or shade treatments, either singularly or interactively. Shade resulted in a reduced biomass of Sphagnumassociates, suggesting that shade affects the competitive ability of other species. Monitoring of exclosure and control plots provided data which suggest that grazing may result in the maintenance of conditions suitable for Sphagnum by altering interspecific competition. The effects of grazing appear to be more pronounced at lower altitude, high productivity sites than at higher altitudes. There was no evidence to suggest that marsupials graze Sphagnum moss. Monitoring of a site subjected to a low intensity burn provided some short-term data on this disturbance event. Initial effects varied according to the vegetation present, which influenced the local severity of the fire. The most significant change appears to be a drying out of the peatland, which has resulted in a decline of Sphagnum. Macrofossils from peat cores have enabled a possible model of Sphagnum peatland succession in Tasmania to be developed. Succession appears to be multi-directional, with micro-successional changes occurring across mires in response to extremely local events. While the major successional pathway suggested by these cores is from Sphagnum/Restiad to Sphagnum mires, progressfon to sites dominated by herbs and shrubs is possible.
FORECASTING THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN CALIFORNIA, FLORIDA, NEW YORK AND TEXAS

description: Despite extensive forecasts of the U.S. unemployment rate, state-level forecasts are quite sparse. This study aims to improve the forecasting performance of simpler models at the state-level. I examine the unemployment rate for the four largest U.S. states by population: California, Florida, New York, and Texas. Overall, I compare the performance of two different models: 1) a simple ARIMA(1,1,0) model and 2) a baseline model using an AR(1) term, a lag of the unemployment rate and several exogenous variables or indicators such as initial claims for unemployment insurance (UI), hiring plans, job openings and the U.S. consumer confidence index. I find that initial claims for UI, job openings from the Job Openings Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) and new housing building permits are best suited to forecast the unemployment rate, particularly at the state-level. I observe that the baseline monthly model outperforms the ARIMA(1,1,0) model for three out of the four states, California, Florida and Texas. I additionally examine quarterly data and utilize the Survey of Professional Forecasters (SPF) forecast estimates for 1-quarter ahead to improve my baseline model.

The development and policy implications of automobile insurance in British Columbia
Creators: name: Harrison, Douglas Knox
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of the thesis is to review the development of the compensation system for traffic victims in British Columbia and to determined what changes are required in order to improve the equity, efficiency, and effectiveness of the system. The study examines this question from a broad perspective because of the inter-relationships among motor vehicle transportation, traffic safety, and the compensation system. The methods of investigation were twofold. The first step was to read all the pertinent literature on the subject which could be found in Vancouver. The second step was to communicate by telephone, by mail, or in person with individuals who possessed special knowledge with respect to one or more aspects of the subject matter. The latter research was invaluable because it updated the information available in the literature, revealed the practical ramifications of different concepts, and provided British Columbia viewpoints to a world wide problem. The conclusions of the thesis are based to a large extent on value judgments because of the paucity of quantifiable data and the absence of an actuarial analysis. In general the writer feels that more stringent procedures must be employed in the issuance and renewal of licences, and the public must accept automatic suspensions of licences for repeated traffic violations or accident involvement. Simultaneously, improvement in vehicle and roadway design, and emergency treatment of crash victims must be undertaken. The writer concludes that a no-fault, direct writer, and privately operated automobile compensation system is feasible at this time, and will provide a more equitable, effective, and efficient system of allocating premium dollars to a broader range of traffic victims.
