Simulation and parameter sensitivity studies of skid-steering and Ackerman steering on an eight-wheeled vehicle
Creators: name: Goodell, Jarrett Duvall
Publisher: name: The University of Texas at Austin
Year: 2004
Subjects: Ackerman steered vehicles
Skid steering
Parameter sensitivity analysis
Energy consumption

description: A three degree of freedom vehicle dynamics model that includes longitudinal and lateral tire force models is described, including its implementation into the Matlab/Simulink simulation environment. The tire force models account for the effect of longitudinal slip as well as lateral slip angles, and the force characteristics are assumed to take the form commonly found for hard surface (non-deformable terrain) applications. The baseline model was developed for an eight-wheeled platform, and the model allows for simulation of either Ackerman or skid-steered configurations. A simple driver model is integrated with the vehicle model and allows control of the velocity and heading of the vehicle. Several common vehicle maneuvers including straight-line motion, constant radius turn, oval racetrack, and lane change are used to verify the model capability. The model was used to compare energy consumption of an Ackerman-steered vehicle and a skid-steered vehicle for the maneuvers described above. It was verified that skid steering consumed more energy than Ackerman steering for all maneuvers except for the straight-line maneuver. In addition, the model was used to examine the effects of varying several vehicle design parameters on energy consumption. The specific parameters analyzed include vehicle mass, aspect ratio, number of wheels, longitudinal weight distribution, and roll weight distribution. Results from this parameter sensitivity study can be used to make important design decisions early in the design cycle for eight-wheeled vehicles and other similar applications.
Large-Scale Pattern Discovery in Music

description: This work focuses on extracting patterns in musical data from very large collections. The problem is split in two parts. First, we build such a large collection, the Million Song Dataset, to provide researchers access to commercial-size datasets. Second, we use this collection to study cover song recognition which involves finding harmonic patterns from audio features. Regarding the Million Song Dataset, we detail how we built the original collection from an online API, and how we encouraged other organizations to participate in the project. The result is the largest research dataset with heterogeneous sources of data available to music technology researchers. We demonstrate some of its potential and discuss the impact it already has on the field. On cover song recognition, we must revisit the existing literature since there are no publicly available results on a dataset of more than a few thousand entries. We present two solutions to tackle the problem, one using a hashing method, and one using a higher-level feature computed from the chromagram (dubbed the 2DFTM). We further investigate the 2DFTM since it has potential to be a relevant representation for any task involving audio harmonic content. Finally, we discuss the future of the dataset and the hope of seeing more work making use of the different sources of data that are linked in the Million Song Dataset. Regarding cover songs, we explain how this might be a first step towards defining a harmonic manifold of music, a space where harmonic similarities between songs would be more apparent.

description: This thesis explores the relationship between the inflammatory microenvironment and the antibody response. I identified a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of antibody-mediated autoimmunity, showing BMI-1 inhibition reduced antibody-secreting cells and decreased pathogenic antibody. I also investigated the antibody response in patients suffering from post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (“Long-COVID”), where I found the B cell response to be dysregulated. Finally, I examined the regulatory role of the inflammatory microenvironment and antibody glycosylation. Together, the results from my thesis highlight the importance of tight microenvironmental regulation of B cells to avoid pathogenesis.

description: The efficient disposal of waste rock at coal mines is of significant economic importance and may mean the difference between a viable and uneconomic mine. When blast rock is disposed of in a valley bottom through which a watercourse passes, the base of the dump is referred to as a "rock drain". The use of formal rock drains to convey significant streamflows at mines in the mountainous regions of western Canada dates from 1980. Since then, rock drains have come into use at the majority of Rocky Mountain coal mines in Alberta and British Columbia. The Rock Drain Research Program was the first comprehensive study of the physical and flow-through characteristics of rock drains and their environmental effects. The program involved analysis and intensive field data collection (over a four year period) at Manalta Coal Limited's Line Creek Mine in south-eastern British Columbia. The project comprised investigations into the physical, flow-through, and environmental characteristics of rock drains. Potential environmental issues included rock drain effects on suspended solids and bedload, water temperature, water chemistry, aquatic invertebrates, and fish. This paper will present an overview of the "environmental effects" investigations of the program. These effects, though measurable in most cases, were found to be much less significant than initially anticipated. Apart from the physical reduction of aquatic habitat due to the presence of the drain, the impacts of the drains were found to be quite localized.

Using Kubo theory and spin dynamics simulations, we explicitly evaluate these effects in a single kagome sheet of potassium iron jarosite, KFe$_3$(OH)$_6$(SO$_4$)$_2$, and predict a spin Seebeck conversion factor of $0.2 μ\mathrm{V}/\mathrm{K}$ at a temperature of $20 \mathrm{K}$.

About the Significance of Quasinormal Modes of Black Holes
Creators: name: Nollert, Hans-Peter
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quasinormal modes have played a prominent role in the discussion of perturbations of black holes, and the question arises whether they are as significant as normal modes are for self adjoint systems, such as harmonic oscillators. They can be significant in two ways: Individual modes may dominate the time evolution of some perturbation, and a whole set of them could be used to completely describe this time evolution. It is known that quasinormal modes of black holes have the first property, but not the second. It has recently been suggested that a discontinuity in the underlying system would make the corresponding set of quasinormal modes complete. We therefore turn the Regge-Wheeler potential, which describes perturbations of Schwarzschild black holes, into a series of step potentials, hoping to obtain a set of quasinormal modes which shows both of the above properties. This hope proves to be futile, though: The resulting set of modes appears to be complete, but it does not contain any individual mode any more which is directly obvious in the time evolution of initial data. Even worse: The quasinormal frequencies obtained in this way seem to be extremely sensitive to very small changes in the underlying potential. The question arises whether - and how - it is possible to make any definite statements about the significance of quasinormal modes of black holes at all, and whether it could be possible to obtain a set of quasinormal modes with the desired properties in another way.

Reclamation 'bonding' : banker's delight
Creators: name: Galbraith, D. M.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The total cost of completing outstanding mine reclamation in British Columbia exceeds the amount held by government in the form of security deposits by over two hundred million dollars. This is not satisfactory to a policy that requires full coverage of liability, or one that argues for liability to be based on management of risk, not liability. Complicating this issue is the fact that it costs government more to do reclamation work than it does a mining company, which in turn complicates reaching agreement on the amount of the security deposit. If the responsibility for completing reclamation left in default can be shifted from government to mining companies, two objectives would be accomplished: agreement will be more easily achieved on the required amount for the security deposit ; and roles of both parties can be more effectively carried out. Two things are necessary to achieve this: companies would have to develop agreements that would assure completion of reclamation programs in the event of default; and government and industry would have to establish an agency to play the role that bonding and insurance companies traditionally do in managing risk.

description: We elaborate on a proposal made by Greensite and others to solve the problem of time in quantum gravity. The proposal states that a viable concept of time and a sensible inner product can be found from the demand for the Ehrenfest equations to hold in quantum gravity. We derive and discuss in detail exact consistency conditions from both Ehrenfest equations as well as from the semiclassical approximation. We also discuss consistency conditions arising from the full field theory. We find that only a very restricted class of solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation fulfills all consistency conditions. We conclude that therefore this proposal must either be abandoned as a means to solve the problem of time or, alternatively, be used as an additional boundary condition to select physical solutions from the Wheeler-DeWitt equation.

description: We study solutions of the Volterra lattice satisfying the stationary equation for its non-autonomous symmetry. It is shown that the dynamics in $t$ and $n$ are governed by the continuous and discrete Painlevé equations, respectively. The class of initial data leading to regular solutions is described. For the lattice on the half-line, these solutions are expressed in terms of the confluent hypergeometric function. The Hankel transform of the coefficients of the corresponding Taylor series is computed on the basis of the Wronskian representation of the solution.

description: Dirac fermions play a central role in the study of topological phases, for they can generate a variety of exotic states, such as Weyl semimetals and topological insulators. The control and manipulation of Dirac fermions constitute a fundamental step towards the realization of novel concepts of electronic devices and quantum computation. By means of ARPES experiments and ab initio simulations, here we show that Dirac states can be effectively tuned by doping a transition metal sulfide, BaNiS2, through Co/Ni substitution. The symmetry and chemical characteristics of this material, combined with the modification of the charge transfer gap of BaCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}S_{2} across its phase diagram, lead to the formation of Dirac lines whose position in k-space can be displaced along the Gamma M symmetry direction, and their form reshaped. Not only does the doping x tailor the location and shape of the Dirac bands, but it also controls the metal-insulator transition in the same compound, making BaCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}S_{2} a model system to functionalize Dirac materials by varying the strength of electron correlations.

description: Civil society actors have long [criticized the EU](https://ecre.org/editorial-sar-draft-roadmap-state-responsibility-absent/) for the lack of search and rescue (SAR) operations in the Mediterranean Sea. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) estimates that between 2014-2024, a minimum of [28,000 refugees and migrants](https://missingmigrants.iom.int/region/mediterranean) have lost their lives or gone missing in the Mediterranean, with the Central Mediterranean being the [deadliest migration route](https://missingmigrants.iom.int/) in the world. The European Border and Coast Guard agency (Frontex), however, believes that SAR constitutes a so-called ‘pull-factor’ which entices more people to attempt the dangerous crossing and die at sea, portraying *non-rescue* as in their best interest.

description: Advancements in medical informatics tools and high-throughput biological experimentation make large-scale biomedical data routinely accessible to researchers. Competing risks data are typical in biomedical studies where individuals are at risk to more than one cause (type of event) which can preclude the others from happening. The Fine-Gray model is a popular and well-appreciated model for competing risks data and is currently implemented in a number of statistical software packages. However, current implementations are not computationally scalable for large-scale competing risks data. We have developed an R package, fastcmprsk, that uses a novel forward-backward scan algorithm to significantly reduce the computational complexity for parameter estimation by exploiting the structure of the subject-specific risk sets. Numerical studies compare the speed and scalability of our implementation to current methods for unpenalized and penalized Fine-Gray regression and show impressive gains in computational efficiency.

description: We present a proposal for a gravitational wave detector, based on the excitation of an electromagnetic mode in a resonance cavity. The mode is excited due to the interaction between a large amplitude electromagnetic mode and a quasi-monochromatic gravitational wave. The minimum metric perturbation needed for detection is estimated to the order 7.10^(-23) using current data on superconducting niobium cavities. Using this value together with different standard models predicting the occurrence of merging neutron star or black hole binaries, the corresponding detection rate is estimated to 1-20 events per year, with a `table top' cavity of a few meters length.

description: Stellar multiplicity is believed to influence planetary formation and evolution, although the precise nature and extent of this role remain ambiguous. We present a study aimed at testing the role of stellar multiplicity in the formation and/or evolution of the most massive, close-in planetary and substellar companions. Using direct imaging observations, as well as the Gaia DR2 catalogue, we searched for wide binary companions to 38 stars hosting massive giant planets or brown dwarfs (M > 7 MJup) on orbits shorter than ~1 AU. We report the discovery of a new component in the WASP-14 system, and present an independent confirmation of a comoving companion to WASP-18. From a robust Bayesian statistical analysis, we derived a binary fraction of 79.0+13.2-14.7% between 20-10,000 AU for our sample, twice as high as for field stars with a 3-σ significance. This binary frequency was found to be larger than for lower-mass planets on similar orbits, and we observed a marginally higher binary rate for inner companions with periods shorter than 10 days. These results demonstrate that stellar companions greatly influence the formation and/or evolution of these systems, suggesting that the role played by binary companions becomes more important for higher-mass planets, and that this trend may be enhanced for systems with tighter orbits. Our analysis also revealed a peak in binary separation at 250 AU, highlighting a shortfall of close binaries among our sample. This indicates that the mechanisms affecting planet and brown dwarf formation or evolution in binaries must operate from wide separations, although we found that the Kozai-Lidov mechanism is unlikely to be the dominant underlying process. We conclude that binarity plays a crucial role in the existence of very massive short-period giant planets and brown dwarf desert inhabitants, which are almost exclusively observed in multiple systems.

description: Suppose M_t is a smooth family of compact connected two dimensional submanifolds of Euclidean space E^3 without boundary varying isometrically in their induced Riemannian metrics. Then we show that the mean curvature integrals over M_t are constant. It is unknown whether there are nontrivial such bendings. The estimates also hold for periodic manifolds for which there are nontrivial bendings. In addition, our methods work essentially without change to show the similar results for submanifolds of H^n and S^n. The rigidity of the mean curvature integral can be used to show new rigidity results for isometric embeddings and provide new proofs of some well-known results. This, together with far-reaching extensions of the results of the present note is done in the preprint: I Rivin, J-M Schlenker, Schlafli formula and Einstein manifolds, IHES preprint (1998). Our result should be compared with the well-known formula of Herglotz.

Reclamation research in the alpine region near Grande Cache, Alberta

description: In 1992 the Alberta Research Council initiated a reclamation study at the Smoky River Coal Limited No. 12 Mine South area located northwest of Grande Cache, Alberta. The objective of the research is to assess the potential for revegetation of land affected by surface coal mining in this alpine area. Two plot areas approximately 300 m apart were established on a south-west facing slope to evaluate the suitability of two different "soil materials". These included "coversoil" or the indigenous soil material and "rock spoil" material. A total of 18 plots were established at each of the two locations to evaluate the suitability of Highlander slender wheatgrass (Agropyron trachycaulum), alpine bluegrass (Poa alpina), broadglumed wheatgrass (Agropyron violaceum), and sheep fescue (Festuca ovina) for revegetation in this area. Plot seeding was completed in September, 1992 and selected plots were fertilized with the equivalent of 125 kg/ha of 35-15-0 in June 1993. Automated climate monitoring stations were installed at the two plot areas to measure air temperature, soil temperature, soil moisture, precipitation, solar radiation, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction. From 1993 to 1997 the frost-free period ranged from 16 to 68 days, and growing season precipitation from 250 mm to 502 mm. Plant cover is less dense at the rock spoil plots because of the higher coarse fragment content and smaller number of potential germination sites. The overall mean percent cover at the coversoil plots in 1997 was 89% compared to 74% for the adjacent undisturbed area. The overall mean at the rock spoil plots was 78% compared to 56% for the adjacent undisturbed area. Invasion or encroachment of native species from the surrounding undisturbed area has been documented since plot establishment. The coversoil and rock spoil materials both offer attributes that enhance the potential for reclamation success. The low level of fertilizer applied after seeding improved initial vegetation establishment, however it appears that no additional fertilizer application will be required. On the basis of the five years of results to date it is evident that these disturbed alpine areas can be successfully reclaimed by combining the use of available native seed and the process of indigenous species invasion or encroachment.

Archaeological investigations of the Devil's Ditch at Windmill Park, Stane Street, Halnaker, West Sussex

description: Sussex Archaeological Collections, 153, 41-46
description: A small excavation was carried out on a section of â��the Devil'â��'s Ditchâ�� at Halnaker. This ditch-and-bank entrenchment has generally been interpreted as part of a series of dykes enclosing a c.1st century BC territorial oppidum at the western edge of the Sussex coastal plain. However, previous campaigns of excavation have produced ambiguous dating evidence, leading to some suggestions that the monument is actually of medieval date. Although there were some indications of Roman and/or medieval re-cutting of the ditch, OSL dating of the primary fills produced date ranges falling entirely within the 1st millennium BC. The most significant finding is that the earliest fills of the ditch had started to accumulate by c.80 BC at the latest. This evidence essentially disproves the theory that the ditch was first established as boundary to a medieval deer park but it also poses questions about whether the entrenchment could have been founded before the Late Iron Age.

description: Photography freezes moments in time, capturing a world that’s perfectly still. Yet, as photographers, we often crave more; we want our images to pulse with life, to grab viewers and pull them in. How do we make a static scene feel alive? Diagonal lines inject movement and emotion into otherwise static photographs by guiding the viewer’s eye across the frame and establishing dynamic tension. In this article, we explore the origins of diagonal composition, examine how photographers harness its energy, and offer practical insights for integrating diagonals into various genres. By understanding the interplay between geometry and perception, you can transform still scenes into visually compelling narratives and engage your audience more deeply.

Laser cleaning of Polychrome Alabaster

Subjects: subject: Architecture
subject: FOS: Civil engineering

description: This research aims at analyzing the effect of laser cleaning on polychrome alabaster surfaces. As cleaning is an integral part in the conservation process, laser cleaning has been used with satisfying results in stone conservation to remove encrustation. Alongside to the aesthetically pleasing results, it is relevant to determine that laser cleaning does not have any adverse effects. Compared to the more traditional techniques, laser cleaning has many additional advantages: The diameter of the laser beam can be regulated so that areas of different dimensions can be treated. There is no physical contact between the object to be cleaned and the laser equipment. This aspect can be really relevant in treating fragile materials. Laser can be a selective tool: it can be regulated to remove dirt, without affecting the original material underneath. Lasers are effective in removing pollution encrustation from stone objects and have been used in conservation since the 1970s. Particularly the aim of this project is to determine whether laser cleaning is a suitable cleaning technique for materials like polychrome alabaster. For painted materials, laser cleaning can be an effective technique but it requires an in-depth study of the laser photochemical and photomechanical effects to avoid irreversible damage of the painted layers. If the outcome of this study is positive, laser cleaning can be added to the range of techniques used for cleaning polychrome artifacts, archaeological structures and historic buildings made of alabaster.

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we discuss stability properties of various discretizations for axisymmetric systems including the so called cartoon method which was proposed by Alcubierre, Brandt et.al. for the simulation of such systems on Cartesian grids. We show that within the context of the method of lines such discretizations tend to be unstable unless one takes care in the way individual singular terms are treated. Examples are given for the linear axisymmetric wave equation in flat space.
