description: The program FIESTA has been completely rewritten. Now it can be used not only as a tool to evaluate Feynman integrals numerically, but also to expand Feynman integrals automatically in limits of momenta and masses with the use of sector decompositions and Mellin-Barnes representations. Other important improvements to the code are complete parallelization (even to multiple computers), high-precision arithmetics (allowing to calculate integrals which were undoable before), new integrators and Speer sectors as a strategy, the possibility to evaluate more general parametric integrals.

description: Elastomer assisted Micro-Transfer-Printing (μTP) is a demonstrated and versatile micro-assembly technology that has been developed in a laboratory and an industrial environment for over ten years. μTP involves the release, transfer and printing of an array of devices from their growth substrate to a different non-native substrate in a massively parallel manner (i.e. thousands of devices per transfer) with a positioning tolerance less than 1.5 µm, using an elastomeric stamp as the transfer element. X-Celeprint has demonstrated this technology in a wide range of diverse applications spanning from OLED and micro-LED displays to concentrated photovoltaics, sensors, storage and photonics [1, 2]. This technology provides an excellent solution to challenges involving the heterogeneous integration of III-V devices with silicon and other application specific substrates such as engineered substrates, flexible substrates, CMOS wafers and glass substrates. Despite the transformational potential of μTP, no commercial facility is available to scale up the technology to an industrial production level in a microelectronics foundry environment.

This paper will describe a European project, MICROPRINCE, that has the goal of setting up the worldwide first open access foundry pilot line for heterogeneous integration by μTP and demonstrate its capability on five defined target applications. The project includes 13 European partners and will be led by X-FAB MEMS Foundry GmbH, who will set up the pilot line in its cleanroom facilities. The installed pilot and the developed processes will lead to the unique opportunity to transfer R&D results to commercial exploitation. Companies planning to use the technology will now be able to use a foundry to have their products fabricated. This key element is expected to spur rapid adaption of the technology. The successful implementation is expected to lead to a substantial and sustainable growth of micro-assembly related businesses
Innovation for a Circular Economy – findings from a ‘thought leadership’ project undertaken for Innovate UK
Creators: name: Clifton, Nick
Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Educational administration, management and leadership

description: This ‘thought piece’ considers ways in which the concept of Circular Economy (CE) might be redefined within the innovation ecosystem. The findings of this report suggest that a distinction needs to be made between the innovation activities of circular economy SMEs as opposed to SMEs undertaking CE innovation, and that a CE programme for SMEs should be a focus for innovation policy. Through a literature review, a less reductive definition of the CE - traditionally associated with ‘recycling’ - in sustainability innovation, emerges. The aim of this report is to provide insights to Innovate UK about how policy can support a CE paradigm shift that can fundamentally change the social and business mindsets around sustainability and CE implementation.

description: Exploring an analytical expression for the convex roof of the pure state squared concurrence for rank 2 mixed states the entanglement of a system of three particles under decoherence is studied, using the monogamy inequality for mixed states and the residual entanglement obtained from it. The monogamy inequality is investigated both for the concurrence and the negativity in the case of local independent phase damping channel acting on generalized GHZ states of three particles and the local independent amplitude damping channel acting on generalized W state of three particles. It is shown that the bipartite entanglement between one qubit and the rest has a qualitative similar behavior to the entanglement between individual qubits, and that the residual entanglement in terms of the negativity cannot be a good entanglement measure for mixed states, since it can increase under local decoherence.

description: Large sprite discharges at high atmospheric altitudes have been found to be physically similar to small streamer discharges in air at sea level density. Based on this understanding, we investigate possible sprite discharges on Venus or Jupiter-like planets through laboratory experiments on streamers in appropriate CO2-N2 and H2-He mixtures. First, the scaling laws are experimentally confirmed by varying the density of the planetary gasses. Then streamer diameters, velocities and overall morphology are investigated for sprites on Venus and Jupiter; they are quite similar to those on earth, but light emissions in the visible range are fainter by two orders of magnitude. The discharge spectra are measured; they are dominated by the minority species N2 on Venus, while signatures of both species are found on Jupiter-like planets. The spectrum of a fully developed spark on Venus is measured. We show that this spectrum is significantly different from the expected sprite spectrum.

description: The number of children actively commuting to school has been decreasing in many countries partly due to parental perception of traffic safety. Micro-scaled streetscape interventions were found to positively influence parental percental perception of safety, but study evidence was limited. This thesis explores the perception and the reasons based on micro-scale streetscape interventions from parents of children enrolled in public primary schools across Melbourne, using videos and survey questions. The study shows that interventions influence perceptions significantly and these findings can be used to design and develop streets that are perceived safe by the parents.

description: At present, the mostly used and developed mechanism is hardware virtualization which provides a common platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions. More precisely, it is all about resource virtualization as the term hardware virtualization is emphasized. In this paper, the aim is to find out the advantages and limitations of current virtualization techniques, analyze their cost and performance and also depict which forthcoming hardware virtualization techniques will able to provide efficient solutions for multiprocessor operating systems. This is done by making a methodical literature survey and statistical analysis of the benchmark reports provided by SPEC (Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation) and TPC (Transaction processing Performance Council). Finally, this paper presents the current aspects of hardware virtualization which will help the IT managers of the large organizations to take effective decision while choosing server with virtualization support. Again, the future works described in section 4 of this paper focuses on some real world challenges such as abstraction of multiple servers, language level virtualization, pre-virtualization etc. which may be point of great interest for the researchers.

Evaluation of seismic fragilities of special concentrically braced frame equipped with innovative cross-laminated timber-steel floor diaphragms
Creators: name: Zhang, Chaoyue
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Floor diaphragms are structural elements mainly responsible for transmitting lateral loads to the adjoining vertical members of the Seismic-Force-Resisting System (SFRS). Under significant seismic events, the actual in-plane stiffness of floor diaphragms affects patterns of load distribution in-between horizontal and vertical elements and, as such, contributes to the local nonlinear response and the global dynamic behavior. However, for SFRS with mass timber and hybrid timber-based floor diaphragms, neither comprehensive code design provisions nor accurate procedures exist to account for its in-plane flexibility. This knowledge deficit becomes more apparent if compared to the standard reinforced concrete flooring system. To gauge influences of the actual in-plane stiffness of diaphragms on a timber-steel hybrid building system, this research analyzes its seismic performance via a series of nonlinear dynamic analyses. Three finite-element building models were developed by adopting the OpenSees framework and were characterized by (i) rigid diaphragms, (ii) actual stiffness of the CLT diaphragm subassemblies, including the panel-to-panel slab connections, and (iii) stiffness of the CLT diaphragm subassemblies without accounting the panel-to-panel slab connections, respectively. In addition, the SFRS of the building entails a Special Concentrically Braced Frame whose nonlinear behaviors were explicitly simulated, including global buckling, tensile yielding, and post-buckling behaviors. Numerical models of steel struts and hybrid CLT diaphragms were calibrated and validated upon experimental datasets. Specifically, this paper outlines the global collapse capacity under varying ground motion intensities among the three building models. The collapse fragility analysis reveals that the conditional probability of exceeding all three considered limit states given any level of ground motion intensity for the SFRS equipped with the CLT-steel floor diaphragm is close to that of the SFRS with rigid diaphragm behavior. Removal of CLT panel-to-panel connections attracts disproportionate and excessive lateral deformation demands towards the unbraced frames due to the increased in-plane diaphragm flexibility.

description: Background and study aims The standard radiofrequency ablation (RFA) protocol for Barrett's esophagus (BE) encompasses an intermediary cleaning phase between two ablation sessions. A simplified protocol omitting the cleaning phase is less labor-intensive but equally effective in studies based on single ablation procedures. The aim of this study was to compare efficacy and safety of the standard and simplified RFA protocols for the whole treatment pathway for BE, including both circumferential and focal devices. Patients and methods We performed a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data on patients receiving RFA between January 2007 and August 2017 at two institutions. Outcomes assessed were: 1) complete remission of dysplasia (CR-D) and intestinal metaplasia (CR-IM) at 18 months; and 2) rate of esophageal strictures. Results One hundred forty-five patients were included of whom 73 patients received the standard and 72 patients received the simplified protocol. CR-D was achieved in 94.5 % and 95.8 % of patients receiving the standard and simplified protocol, respectively ( P = 0.71). CR-IM was achieved in 84.9 % and 77.8 % of patients treated with the standard and simplified protocol, respectively ( P = 0.27). Strictures were significantly more common among patients who received the simplified protocol (12.5 %) compared to the standard protocol (1.4 %; P = 0.008). The median number of esophageal dilations was one. Conclusion The simplified RFA protocol is as effective as the standard protocol in eradicating BE but carries a higher risk of strictures. This needs to be taken into account, particularly in patients with higher pretreatment risk of strictures, such as those with esophageal narrowing from previous endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR).

description: We use semi-analytic modeling on top of the Millennium simulation to study the joint formation of galaxies and their embedded supermassive black holes. Our goal is to test scenarios in which black hole accretion and quasar activity are triggered by galaxy mergers, and to constrain different models for the lightcurves associated with individual quasar events. In the present work we focus on studying the spatial distribution of simulated quasars. At all luminosities, we find that the simulated quasar two-point correlation function is fit well by a single power-law in the range 0.5 < r < 20 h^{-1} Mpc, but its normalization is a strong function of redshift. When we select only quasars with luminosities within the range typically accessible by today's quasar surveys, their clustering strength depends only weakly on luminosity, in agreement with observations. This holds independently of the assumed lightcurve model, since bright quasars are black holes accreting close to the Eddington limit, and are hosted by dark matter haloes with a narrow mass range of a few 10^12 h^{-1} M_sun. Therefore the clustering of bright quasars cannot be used to disentangle lightcurve models, but such a discrimination would become possible if the observational samples can be pushed to significantly fainter limits. Overall, our clustering results for the simulated quasar population agree rather well with observations, lending support to the conjecture that galaxy mergers could be the main physical process responsible for triggering black hole accretion and quasar activity.

description: Control accessibility of SMEs to the critical situation. Therefore, there should be ways of reducing the arbitrary invasion of SMEs in critical situations. However, when the area is expanded, then there is the possibility of control, when those responsible for the accessibility of SMEs are identified. Another solution is to protect the crisis managers and victims from the attention of the media, to protect their privacy and to preserve their emotions and reasoning. Alternatively, control freedoms can also make limited accessibility to a certain number of SME representatives possible. The representatives of SMEs undertake to collect the visual and audio material and to distribute it to each member of the media. The effectiveness of SME management, therefore, is achieved through the finding by SME managers of suitable individuals as victims or as managers of the crisis, to be interviewed by the media .

Brain–behavior Relationship

description: BACKGROUND:In 2009, the National Institute of Mental Health launched the Research Domain Criteria, an attempt to move beyond diagnostic categories and ground psychiatry within neurobiological constructs that combine different levels of measures (e.g., brain imaging and behavior). Statistical methods that can integrate such multimodal data, however, are often vulnerable to overfitting, poor generalization, and difficulties in interpreting the results. METHODS:We propose an innovative machine learning framework combining multiple holdouts and a stability criterion with regularized multivariate techniques, such as sparse partial least squares and kernel canonical correlation analysis, for identifying hidden dimensions of cross-modality relationships. To illustrate the approach, we investigated structural brain-behavior associations in an extensively phenotyped developmental sample of 345 participants (312 healthy and 33 with clinical depression). The brain data consisted of whole-brain voxel-based gray matter volumes, and the behavioral data included item-level self-report questionnaires and IQ and demographic measures. RESULTS:Both sparse partial least squares and kernel canonical correlation analysis captured two hidden dimensions of brain-behavior relationships: one related to age and drinking and the other one related to depression. The applied machine learning framework indicates that these results are stable and generalize well to new data. Indeed, the identified brain-behavior associations are in agreement with previous findings in the literature concerning age, alcohol use, and depression-related changes in brain volume. CONCLUSIONS:Multivariate techniques (such as sparse partial least squares and kernel canonical correlation analysis) embedded in our novel framework are promising tools to link behavior and/or symptoms to neurobiology and thus have great potential to contribute to a biologically grounded definition of psychiatric disorders.

description: In a landmark text, ‘The Theological Turn of French Phenomenology’, Dominique Janicaud posits a boundary that sharply divides the legitimate phenomenological tradition from a problematic variant seen to be fundamentally compromised by theology. This article develops an immanent critique of Janicaud’s position. It demonstrates that his boundary relies on the mature work of Maurice Merleau-Ponty as a constitutive exemplar of the tradition, that this work is centrally concerned with beauty, and that its notion of beauty is irreducibly theological. Merleau-Ponty himself will thus be shown to enact his own version of the theological turn. I shall consequently propose a reconstrual of the boundary of phenomenology. My argument relies fundamentally on Merleau-Ponty’s essay, ‘Eye and Mind’, and includes a critical restatement of Galen Johnson’s reading of this text. In addition to its direct relevance to phenomenology, this article bears upon broader concerns, including the relationships between theory, the body, aesthetics, and the post-secular.

description: Motivated by a recent proposal by Lev and coworkers, in the first part of this thesis, we will perform a theoretical investigation of a new class of quantum simulators: the so called multimode disordered Dicke simulators. Our approach is mostly inspired from Statistical Mechanics: indeed we will merge together exact results obtained in the context of the Dicke model by Hepp and Lieb, with known results on disordered systems and neural networks. In this way we will be able to generalize the standard approach to the superradiant phase transition to the disordered case. As a byproduct of this analysis we will argue that this new class of quantum simulators (properly engineered) may be an alternative (or complementary) route toward quantum computation. Also the second part of the thesis has a ?quantum simulators motivation?. Recently Bloch?s group implemented an Ising quantum magnet with long-range antiferro- magnetic interactions, which exhibits a peculiar devil?s staircase phase diagram, predicted long ago by Bak and Bruinsma. This result, joined with recent theoretical investigations by Lesanowsky and coworkers suggested to us to reconsider these spin models in the context of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE). In the second part of this thesis we will show that the quantum Hall Hamitonian projected on the lowest Landau level can be mapped, in the so called thin torus limit, on the lattice gas studied by Bak and Bruinsma. This observation will lead us to predict a devil?s staircase scenario for the Hall conductance as a function of the magnetic field. This work stimulated us to investigate the connection between Laughlin wave function and Tao-Thouless states, that we will explore in the last section of the second part.

description: Given a multilevel system coupled to a bath, we use a Feshbach P,Q partitioning technique to derive an exact trace-nonpreserving master equation for a subspace $\mathcal{S}_{i}$ of the system. The resultant equation properly treats the leakage effect from $\mathcal{S}_{i}$ into the remainder of the system space. Focusing on a second-order approximation, we show that a one-dimensional master equation is sufficient to study problems of quantum state storage and is a good approximation, or exact, for several analytical models. It allows a natural definition of a leakage function and its control, and provides a general approach to study and control decoherence and leakage. Numerical calculations on an harmonic oscillator coupled to a room temperature harmonic bath show that the leakage can be suppressed by the pulse control technique without requiring ideal pulses.

description: Objective: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is in 70% of cases associated with inflammatory bowel disease. The hypermorphic T108M variant of the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR35 increases risk for PSC and ulcerative colitis (UC), conditions strongly predisposing for inflammation-associated liver and colon cancer. Lack of GPR35 reduces tumour numbers in mouse models of spontaneous and colitis associated cancer. The tumour microenvironment substantially determines tumour growth, and tumour-associated macrophages are crucial for neovascularisation. We aim to understand the role of the GPR35 pathway in the tumour microenvironment of spontaneous and colitis-associated colon cancers. Design: Mice lacking GPR35 on their macrophages underwent models of spontaneous colon cancer or colitis-associated cancer. The role of tumour-associated macrophages was then assessed in biochemical and functional assays. Results: Here, we show that GPR35 on macrophages is a potent amplifier of tumour growth by stimulating neoangiogenesis and tumour tissue remodelling. Deletion of Gpr35 in macrophages profoundly reduces tumour growth in inflammation-associated and spontaneous tumour models caused by mutant tumour suppressor adenomatous polyposis coli. Neoangiogenesis and matrix metalloproteinase activity is promoted by GPR35 via Na/K-ATPase-dependent ion pumping and Src activation, and is selectively inhibited by a GPR35-specific pepducin. Supernatants from human inducible-pluripotent-stem-cell derived macrophages carrying the UC and PSC risk variant stimulate tube formation by enhancing the release of angiogenic factors. Conclusions: Activation of the GPR35 pathway promotes tumour growth via two separate routes, by directly augmenting proliferation in epithelial cells that express the receptor, and by coordinating macrophages’ ability to create a tumour-permissive environment.

description: İbranice ve Aramice'de melel "konuşmak, söylemek", mille de "kelime, söz" manasına gelir. Bununla da ilişkili olarak Arapça'da "ezberden yazdırmak, dikte etmek" anlamındaki imlal (imla) kökünden türeyen millet, işitilen ve okunan bir şeye dayanması (lbnül-Haim, s. 105) veya dikte edilmesi ve yazılması (AIusi I, 371; Sıddık Hasan Han, II. 337) bakımından "din" karşılığında kullanılmış, ayrıca kelimeye "izlenen, gidilen yol" manası verilmiştir (Tehıfbü'l-luga, "mil" md.; Zemahşerı, s. 790; Alusi, I, 371). Bu çerçevede "el-milletü'I-İslamiyye (el-milletü'I-Muhammediyye), el-milletü'I-Yehudiyye, el-milletü'n- Nasraniyye" veya "milletü'l-İslam, milletü İbrahim, milletü'I-Mesıh (milletü'n- Nasraniyye), milletu Yehüd (milletü'I-Yehudiyye), milletü'l-Mecus, milletü's-Sabie, milletü'l-hak, milletü't-tevhid, mllletü'lküfr" gibi tamlamalarda belli dinleri ifade eder. Kelime muhtemelen daha sonraları kendisine sosyal bakımdan yüklenen anlamdan da etkilenip modern dönemde Batı'daki "nation" kavramının karşılığı olarak Türkçe ve Farsça'ya geçmiş ve bu dillerde tamamen sosyolojik ve siyasal bir içerik kazanmıştır.
LE IMPUGNAZIONI NEL MERITO DELLE CAUTELE PENALI REALI

description: Il presente lavoro muove dalla constatazione della carenza nella letteratura sul processo penale, di una trattazione organica delle impugnazioni in materia cautelare reale. Ne � scaturita la scelta di indagare questo settore delle impugnazioni penali in modo trasversale, con riguardo sia al tipo di cautela coinvolta (sequestro preventivo e conservativo), sia al tipo di mezzo d?impugnazione proposto. Peraltro, la ricerca coinvolge le sole impugnazioni sul merito dei provvedimenti cautelari reali, con inclusione dei soli mezzi del riesame e dell?appello. Il presente studio non affronta l?analisi del ricorso per cassazione, tenuto conto della specificit� dei problemi che la relativa disciplina presenta. Inoltre, per il ricorso non si pongono quesiti di sorta in ordine alla natura di mezzo di impugnazione, mentre, � noto, � fortemente dibattuto quale fisionomia abbia il riesame, mezzo da sempre incline ad assecondare sia la logica tipica dei gravami, intesi quali strumenti per un ?nuovo giudizio? sulla situazione giuridica da accertare, sia ? al contempo ? la logica tipica dei mezzi d?impugnazione, intesi quali strumenti di controllo del provvedimento, e del relativo accertamento. Dal canto suo l?appello, tradizionalmente inquadrato fra i mezzi d?impugnazione, condivide con il riesame una fisionomia proteiforme. Ci� suggerisce, da un lato, un accostamento fra i due istituti, dall?altro, un approccio attento a valorizzare le differenze di disciplina fra l?appello dell?imputato e l?appello del pubblico ministero. Ulteriori indicazioni utili a indagare sulla reale natura del riesame e dell?appello si ricavano dall?analisi dei problemi di interferenza fra procedimento d?impugnazione cautelare e procedimento di revoca del sequestro preventivo (art. 321 c.p.p.).

description: In this paper, we consider the intensity surface of a 2D image, we study the evolution of the symmetry sets (and medial axes) of 1-parameter families of iso-intensity curves. This extends the investigation done on 1-parameter families of smooth plane curves (Bruce and Giblin, Giblin and Kimia, etc.) to the general case when the family of curves includes a singular member, as will happen if the curves are obtained by taking plane sections of a smooth surface, at the moment when the plane becomes tangent to the surface. Looking at those surface sections as isophote curves, of the pixel values of an image embedded in the real plane, this allows us to propose to combine object representation using a skeleton or symmetry set representation and the appearance modelling by representing image information as a collection of medial representations for the level-sets of an image.

description: In this work we calculate the branching ratios of semi-leptonic and non-leptonic decays of $Λ_b$ into light baryons ($p$ and $Λ$), as well as the measurable asymmetries which appear in the processes, in the light front quark model (LFQM). In the calculation, we adopt the diquark picture and discuss the justifiability of applying the picture in our case. Our result on the branching ratio of $Λ_b\toΛ+J/ψ$ is in good agreement with data. More predictions are made in the same model and the results will be tested in the future experiments which will be conducted at LHCb and even ILC.

Ultracold gases far from equilibrium

description: Ultracold atomic quantum gases belong to the most exciting challenges of modern physics. Their theoretical description has drawn much from classical field equations. These mean-field approximations are in general reliable for dilute gases in which the atoms collide only rarely with each other, and for situations where the gas is not too far from thermal equilibrium. With present-day technology it is, however, possible to drive and observe a system far away from equilibrium. Functional quantum field theory provides powerful tools to achieve both, analytical understanding and numerical computability, also in higher dimensions, of far-from-equilibrium quantum many-body dynamics. In the article, an outline of these approaches is given, including methods based on the two-particle irreducible effective action as well as on renormalisation-group theory. Their relation to near-equilibrium kinetic theory is discussed, and the distinction between quantum and classical statistical fluctuations is shown to naturally emerge from the functional-integral description. Example applications to the evolution of an ultracold atomic Bose gas in one spatial dimension underline the power of the methods. The article is compiled from the notes for lectures held at 46.

description: We have measured local and non-local conductance of mesoscopic normal-metal/superconductor hybrid structures fabricated by e-beam lithography and shadow evaporation. The sample geometry consists of a superconducting aluminum bar with two normal-metal wires forming tunnel contacts to the aluminum at distances of the order of the superconducting coherence length. We observe subgap anomalies in both local and non-local conductance that quickly decay with magnetic field and temperature. For the non-local conductance both positive and negative signs are found as a function of bias conditions, indicating at a competition of crossed Andreev reflection and elastic cotunneling. Our data suggest that the signals are caused by a phase-coherent enhancement of transport rather than dynamical Coulomb blockade.
Covariate adjusted functional principal components analysis for longitudinal data

description: Classical multivariate principal component analysis has been extended to functional data and termed functional principal component analysis (FPCA). Most existing FPCA approaches do not accommodate covariate information, and it is the goal of this paper to develop two methods that do. In the first approach, both the mean and covariance functions depend on the covariate $Z$ and time scale $t$ while in the second approach only the mean function depends on the covariate $Z$. Both new approaches accommodate additional measurement errors and functional data sampled at regular time grids as well as sparse longitudinal data sampled at irregular time grids. The first approach to fully adjust both the mean and covariance functions adapts more to the data but is computationally more intensive than the approach to adjust the covariate effects on the mean function only. We develop general asymptotic theory for both approaches and compare their performance numerically through simulation studies and a data set.

description: We study the recently proposed "stationary measure" in the context of the string landscape scenario. We show that it suffers neither from the "Boltzmann brain" problem nor from the "youngness" paradox that makes some other measures predict a high CMB temperature at present. We also demonstrate a satisfactory performance of this measure in predicting the results of local experiments, such as proton decay.
