Development of a Versatile, Stable Droplet‐reactor for High Temperature Nanocrystal Synthesis
Creators: name: Nightingale, Adrian Matthew Le Cocq
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: Colloidal nanocrystals exhibit interesting and useful size-dependent nanoscale phenomena (e.g. tunable fluorescence in quantum dots and optical absorptions in gold and silver nanoparticles), large surface areas and can be used for a variety of high-tech applications. Care must be taken to produce nanocrystals with well defined size, shape and composition, however, as these parameters directly affect the properties of the colloidal ensemble. Microreactors offer superior control over reaction conditions relative to traditional bulk batch methods and as such offer an attractive route to nanoparticle production. Hence there have been over a hundred papers reporting microfluidic synthesis of nanocrystalline colloids since the first reports in 2002. The work described in this thesis focussed on extending and improving the microfluidic method. Continuous-flow reactors were used initially, however, deposition was found to be a pervading problem with its severity varying with the material being synthesised. To address this problem a new capillary-based droplet-flow reactor was developed in which droplets are generated by the direct injection of confluent reagent streams within a stream of immiscible carrier fluid and, subsequently, can be heated and optically characterised further downstream. The reactor produced stable, controllable droplet flow over a wide range of flow rates, with droplet volumes down to 30 nL, and proved to be highly effective: CdSe quantum dots were synthesised via a high-temperature pyrolytic synthesis with strong control over particle size and size distribution. Crucially, unlike previously reported high temperature droplet reactors, the reactor could be operated indefinitely, without any degradation of the device and minimal variation in the product seen during 24 hours continuous production. To emphasise the versatility and applicability of the droplet reactor, Ag, TiO2 and InP nanocrystals were synthesised (using both organic and aqueous syntheses) and an automatic optimisation routine to reduce size distribution was applied to CdSe quantum dot synthesis.

description: We identify the extended Einstein IPC X-ray source, 1E0657-56, with a previously unknown cluster of galaxies at a redshift of $z=0.296$. Optical CCD images show the presence of a gravitational arc in this cluster and galaxy spectra yield a cluster velocity dispersion of $1213^{+352}_{-191}$ km s$^{-1}$. X-ray data obtained with the ROSAT HRI and ASCA indicate that 1E0657-56 is a highly luminous cluster in which a merger of subclusters may be occurring. The temperature of the hot gas in 1E0657-56 is $\rm{kT}=17.4 \pm 2.5 keV$, which makes it an unusually hot cluster, with important cosmological implications.

description: Transiting exoplanets in young open clusters present opportunities to study how exoplanets evolve over their lifetimes. Recently, significant progress detecting transiting planets in young open clusters has been made with the K2 mission, but so far all of these transiting cluster planets orbit close to their host stars, so planet evolution can only be studied in a high-irradiation regime. Here, we report the discovery of a long-period planet candidate, called HD 283869 b, orbiting a member of the Hyades cluster. Using data from the K2 mission, we detected a single transit of a super-Earth-sized (1.96 +/- 0.12 R_earth) planet candidate orbiting the K-dwarf HD 283869 with a period longer than 72 days. Since we only detected a single transit event, we cannot validate HD 283869 b with high confidence, but our analysis of the K2 images, archival data, and follow-up observations suggests that the source of the event is indeed a transiting planet. We estimated the candidate's orbital parameters and find that if real, it has a period P~100 days and receives approximately Earth-like incident flux, giving the candidate a 71% chance of falling within the circumstellar habitable zone. If confirmed, HD 283869 b would have the longest orbital period, lowest incident flux, and brightest host star of any known transiting planet in an open cluster, making it uniquely important to future studies of how stellar irradiation affects planetary evolution.

Topological origin of electromagnetic energy sinks

description: It was recently highlighted that nonreciprocal surface waves can be stopped in suitably designed waveguides, leading to the formation of hotspots wherein the electromagnetic fields are massively enhanced. Here, we prove that this phenomenon has a topological origin and is related to a breakdown of the bulk-edge correspondence in electromagnetic continua with no spatial cut-off. Our theoretical analysis shows that nonreciprocal electromagnetic continua can used to realize energy sinks with ultra-singular fields that absorb all the energy generated in their surroundings. Moreover, it is proven that similar energy sinks may be formed in fully reciprocal optical platforms with a parity-time-duality (P-T-D) symmetry.

description: Almost paracontact manifolds of an odd dimension having an almost paracomplex structure on the paracontact distribution are studied. The components of the fundamental (0,3)-tensor, derived by the covariant derivative of the structure endomorphism and the metric on the considered manifolds in each of the basic classes, are obtained. Then, the case of the lowest dimension 3 of these manifolds is considered. An associated tensor of the Nijenhuis tensor is introduced and the studied manifolds are characterized with respect to this pair of tensors. Moreover, cases of paracontact and para-Sasakian types are commented. A family of examples is given.

A deformation based approach to structural steel design
Creators: name: Wang, Facheng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Current structural steel design codes, such as EN 1993-1-1, were developed on the basis of a bi-linear (elastic, perfectly-plastic) material model, which lends itself to the idea of cross-section classification. This step-wise design concept is a useful, but somewhat artificial simplification of the true behaviour of structural steel since the relationship between the resistance of a structural cross-section and its slenderness is, in reality, continuous. The aim of this study is therefore to develop a more efficient structural steel design method recognising this relationship and rationally exploiting strain-hardening, whilst maintaining, where possible, consistency with current design approaches. As part of the present study, laboratory tests were carried out on cold-formed and hot-rolled steel hollow sections. A total of 6 simple beams and 12 continuous beams (with two configurations) and corresponding material coupon tests were conducted. These experimental results were added to existing collected test data to develop and calibrate a new structural steel design method. The test results indicated that capacities beyond the yield load in compression and the plastic moment capacity in bending could be achieved due to strain-hardening. The new design approach, termed the continuous strength method (CSM), enables this extra capacity to be harnessed. The developed deformation based steel design method employs a continuous ‘base curve’ to provide a relationship between cross-section slenderness and deformation capacity in conjunction with a strain-hardening material model. The material model is elastic, linear-hardening and has been calibrated on the basis of collected stress-strain data from a range of structural sections. The CSM has been developed for both statically determinate and indeterminate structures utilising both experimental data and that generated through sophisticated numerical modelling. Comparisons between test results and predictions according to EN 1993-1-1 and the proposed method were made. The results revealed that the CSM provides a more accurate prediction of test response and enhanced structural capacity over current design methods.

description: Semiconductor holes with strong spin-orbit coupling allow all-electrical spin control, with broad applications ranging from spintronics to quantum computation. Using a two-dimensional hole system in a GaAs quantum well, we demonstrate a new mechanism of electrically controlling the Zeeman splitting, which is achieved through altering the hole wave vector $k$. We find a threefold enhancement of the in-plane $g-$factor $g_{\parallel}(k)$. We introduce a new method for quantifying the Zeeman splitting from magnetoresistance measurements, since the conventional tilted field approach fails for two-dimensional systems with strong spin-orbit coupling. Finally, we show that the Rashba spin-orbit interaction suppresses the in-plane Zeeman interaction at low magnetic fields. The ability to control the Zeeman splitting with electric fields opens up new possibilities for future quantum spin-based devices, manipulating non-Abelian geometric phases, and realising Majorana systems in $p-$type superconductor systems.

description: Standard methods of nonlinear dynamics are used to investigate the stability of particles, branes and D-branes of abelian Born-Infeld theory. In particular the equation of small fluctuations about the D-brane is derived and converted into a modified Mathieu equation and - complementing earlier low-energy investigations in the case of the dilaton-axion system - studied in the high-energy domain. Explicit expressions are derived for the S-matrix and absorption and reflection amplitudes of the scalar fluctuation in the presence of the D-brane. The results confirm physical expectations and numerical studies of others. With the derivation and use of the (hitherto practically unknown) high energy expansion of the Floquet exponent our considerations also close a gap in earlier treatments of the Mathieu equation.

Wireless transmission protocols using relays for broadcast and information exchange channels
Creators: name: Leow, Chee Yen
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Relays have been used to overcome existing network performance bottlenecks in meeting the growing demand for large bandwidth and high quality of service (QoS) in wireless networks. This thesis proposes several wireless transmission protocols using relays in practical multi-user broadcast and information exchange channels. The main theme is to demonstrate that efficient use of relays provides an additional dimension to improve reliability, throughput, power efficiency and secrecy. First, a spectrally efficient cooperative transmission protocol is proposed for the multiple-input and singleoutput (MISO) broadcast channel to improve the reliability of wireless transmission. The proposed protocol mitigates co-channel interference and provides another dimension to improve the diversity gain. Analytical and simulation results show that outage probability and the diversity and multiplexing tradeoff of the proposed cooperative protocol outperforms the non-cooperative scheme. Second, a two-way relaying protocol is proposed for the multi-pair, two-way relaying channel to improve the throughput and reliability. The proposed protocol enables both the users and the relay to participate in interference cancellation. Several beamforming schemes are proposed for the multi-antenna relay. Analytical and simulation results reveal that the proposed protocol delivers significant improvements in ergodic capacity, outage probability and the diversity and multiplexing tradeoff if compared to existing schemes. Third, a joint beamforming and power management scheme is proposed for multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) two-way relaying channel to improve the sum-rate. Network power allocation and power control optimisation problems are formulated and solved using convex optimisation techniques. Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme delivers better sum-rate or consumes lower power when compared to existing schemes. Fourth, two-way secrecy schemes which combine one-time pad and wiretap coding are proposed for the scalar broadcast channel to improve secrecy rate. The proposed schemes utilise the channel reciprocity and employ relays to forward secret messages. Analytical and simulation results reveal that the proposed schemes are able to achieve positive secrecy rates even when the number of users is large. All of these new wireless transmission protocols help to realise better throughput, reliability, power efficiency and secrecy for wireless broadcast and information exchange channels through the efficient use of relays.
The assessment of right ventricular function during and following routine cardiac surgery and the evaluation of preserving pericardial integrity
Creators: name: Unsworth, Bethan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: The assessment of right ventricular tricuspid annular velocities and excursion is a robust and common technique of evaluating right ventricular function. The measurement of peak systolic myocardial velocities using pulsed wave tissue Doppler imaging correlates well with estimates of systolic function. It is well known that right ventricular velocities are significantly reduced in patients following cardiac surgery; however the precise cause of this post-operative phenomenon remains unknown despite a number of proposed mechanisms. In this thesis I have carried out observational studies before, during and after surgery in number of patients undergoing different cardiac and thoracic operations. I found using intra-operative transoesophageal and pre and post-operative transthoracic echocardiography that the onset of right ventricular myocardial velocity reduction is immediately marked by the full opening of the pericardium following traditional-midline thoracotomy. I also identified that this reduction is present in all operations where the pericardium is opened fully regardless of the underlying pathology i.e. cardiac or noncardiac. By measuring simultaneous pericardial support pressures and intra-operative transoesophageal velocities during a staged pericardiotomy I also showed, in patient where there pericardium was to be opened fully, that this loss occurs consistently and specifically during the second-stage of a three-staged pericardiotomy which demonstrated in a novel way the substantial and localised mechanical support provided by the intact pericardium. Furthermore, I found that right ventricular longitudinal velocities do not reduce in those patients undergoing minimally invasive cardiac surgery where pericardial integrity is preserved. I believe this thesis has helped to prune the range of possible mechanism for this post operative phenomenon which is frequently seen and commented upon.

description: The path integral computation of field strength correlation functions for two dimensional Yang-Mills theories over Riemann surfaces is studied. The calculation is carried out by abelianization, which leads to correlators that are topological. They are nontrivial as a result of the topological obstructions to the abelianization. It is shown in the large N limit on the sphere that the correlators undergo second order phase transitions at the critical point. Our results are applied to a computation of contractible Wilson loops.

description: Uncovering modular structure in networks is fundamental for systems in biology, physics, and engineering. Community detection identifies candidate modules as hypotheses, which then need to be validated through experiments, such as mutagenesis in a biological laboratory. Only a few communities can typically be validated, and it is thus important to prioritize which communities to select for downstream experimentation. Here we develop CRank, a mathematically principled approach for prioritizing network communities. CRank efficiently evaluates robustness and magnitude of structural features of each community and then combines these features into the community prioritization. CRank can be used with any community detection method. It needs only information provided by the network structure and does not require any additional metadata or labels. However, when available, CRank can incorporate domain-specific information to further boost performance. Experiments on many large networks show that CRank effectively prioritizes communities, yielding a nearly 50-fold improvement in community prioritization.

description: Risk-benefit assessment for decision-making based on evidence is a subject of continuing interest. However, randomised clinical trials evidence of risks and benefits are not always available especially for drugs used in children mainly due to ethical concern of children being subjects of clinical trials. This thesis appraises risk-benefit evidence from published trials in children for the case study; assesses the risk-benefit balance of drugs, proposes a framework for risk-benefit evidence synthesis, and demonstrates the extent of its contribution. The review shows trial designs lack safety planning leading to inconsistency safety reporting, and lack of efficacy evidence. The General Practice Research Database (GPRD) data was exploited to synthesise evidence of risks of cisapride and domperidone in children with gastro-oesophageal reflux as a case study. Efficacy data are only available through review evidence. Analysis of prescribing trends does not identify further risk-benefit issues but suggest the lack of evidence has led to inappropriate prescribing in children. Known adverse events are defined from the British National Formulary and quantified. Proportional reporting ratio technique is applied to other clinical events to generate potential safety signals. Signals are validated; and analysed for confirmatory association through covariates adjustment in regressions. The degree of associations between signals and drugs are assessed using Bradford Hill’s criteria for causation. Verified risks are known adverse events with 95% statistical significance, and signals in abdominal pain group and bronchitis and bronchiolitis group. The drugs’ risk-benefit profiles are illustrated using the two verified signals and an efficacy outcome. Sensitivity of input parameters is studied via simulations. The findings are used to hypothetically advise risk-benefit aspects of trial designs. The value of information from this study varies between stakeholders and the keys to communicating risks and benefits lie in presentation and understanding. The generalisability and scope of the proposed methods are discussed.

description: In this work, we study the multiuser detection (MUD) problem for a grant-free massive-device multiple access (MaDMA) system, where a large number of single-antenna user devices transmit sporadic data to a multi-antenna base station (BS). Specifically, we put forth two MUD schemes, termed random sparsity learning multiuser detection (RSL-MUD) and structured sparsity learning multiuser detection (SSL-MUD) for the time-slotted and non-time-slotted grant-free MaDMA systems, respectively. In the time-slotted RSL-MUD scheme, active users generate and transmit data packets with random sparsity. In the non-time-slotted SSL-MUD scheme, we introduce a sliding-window-based detection framework, and the user signals in each observation window naturally exhibit structured sparsity. We show that by exploiting the sparsity embedded in the user signals, we can recover the user activity state, the channel, and the user data in a single phase, without using pilot signals for channel estimation and/or active user identification. To this end, we develop a message-passing based statistical inference framework for the BS to blindly detect the user data without any prior knowledge of the identities and the channel state information (CSI) of the active users. Simulation results show that our RSL-MUD and SSL-MUD schemes significantly outperform their counterpart schemes in both reducing the transmission overhead and improving the error behavior of the system.

description: Alaska Railroad Corporation was realigning its tracks across Elmendorf Air Force Base and Fort Richardson for ten miles between Anchorage and Eagle River, Alaska. The project was meant to shorten transit time and increase operational safety by straightening the alignment and upgrading the railbed. The Federal Railroad Administration funded this undertaking, but because numerous federal agencies were involved, the Bureau of Land Management had been designated lead-federal-agency for National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 compliance with Advisory Council on Historic Preservation implementing regulations at 36 CFR 800. A historic properties survey was conducted during which the entire length of the realignment was physically examined. The results of that examination are reported from south to north in the Narrative section of this report. Paleontology was included in the scope of work for the cultural resources survey, but is outside the purview of the National Historic Preservation Act. This report concludes that paleontological materials are not a significant resource to additionally pursue during construction. No construction monitoring or additional action regarding paleontological resources is recommended.
Spatiotemporal replication dynamics of Salmonella during systemic disease
Creators: name: Watson, Kathryn Geraldine
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) causes a systemic disease in susceptible mouse strains that is widely used as a model of human typhoid fever. I developed a reporter system based on fluorescence dilution that measures bacterial replication directly at both the population and single cell level. To understand how S. Typhimurium colonises host tissues during disease, I applied fluorescence dilution to study S. Typhimurium replication during acute murine typhoid, following oral inoculation. Bacteria that had not replicated were found in the Peyer’s patches (PP), mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and spleen. Hence, replication is not a prerequisite for S. Typhimurium to traverse the intestinal wall and reach deeper tissues. Furthermore, non-replicating bacteria were found to persist for long periods of time within the intestine and, to a smaller extent, in the spleen, suggesting that these bacteria may represent dormant reservoirs that cause chronic infections. Bacteria replicated rapidly upon invasion of the PP, while the MLN represented a more restrictive niche for bacterial replication. In addition, the spleen was seeded preferentially by bacteria that had already replicated elsewhere. Further analysis of bacterial replication in the spleen provided insights into the contribution of the Salmonella-encoded pathogenicity island-2 type III secretion system to replication in this organ. Experiments also showed that S. Typhimurium preferentially colonised and replicated within macrophages within the spleen. Therefore, the use of fluorescence dilution has provided detailed insights into the relationship between the replication of S. Typhimurium and its colonisation of host tissues, and has revealed the existence and localisation of non-replicating bacteria that could persist during chronic infections.

Sparseness-controlled adaptive algorithms for supervised and unsupervised system identification
Creators: name: Loganathan, Pradeep
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: In single-channel hands-free telephony, the acoustic coupling between the loudspeaker and the microphone can be strong and this generates echoes that can degrade user experience. Therefore, effective acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) is necessary to maintain a stable system and hence improve the perceived voice quality of a call. Traditionally, adaptive filters have been deployed in acoustic echo cancellers to estimate the acoustic impulse responses (AIRs) using adaptive algorithms. The performances of a range of well-known algorithms are studied in the context of both AEC and network echo cancellation (NEC). It presents insights into their tracking performances under both time-invariant and time-varying system conditions. In the context of AEC, the level of sparseness in AIRs can vary greatly in a mobile environment. When the response is strongly sparse, convergence of conventional approaches is poor. Drawing on techniques originally developed for NEC, a class of time-domain and a frequency-domain AEC algorithms are proposed that can not only work well in both sparse and dispersive circumstances, but also adapt dynamically to the level of sparseness using a new sparseness-controlled approach. As it will be shown later that the early part of the acoustic echo path is sparse while the late reverberant part of the acoustic path is dispersive, a novel approach to an adaptive filter structure that consists of two time-domain partition blocks is proposed such that different adaptive algorithms can be used for each part. By properly controlling the mixing parameter for the partitioned blocks separately, where the block lengths are controlled adaptively, the proposed partitioned block algorithm works well in both sparse and dispersive time-varying circumstances. A new insight into an analysis on the tracking performance of improved proportionate NLMS (IPNLMS) is presented by deriving the expression for the mean-square error. By employing the framework for both sparse and dispersive time-varying echo paths, this work validates the analytic results in practical simulations for AEC. The time-domain second-order statistic based blind SIMO identification algorithms, which exploit the cross relation method, are investigated and then a technique with proportionate step-size control for both sparse and dispersive system identification is also developed.
