CONTROLLING THE PROPERTIES OF HOMOGENEOUS EPSILON NEAR ZERO MATERIALS AND THEIR SWITCHING BEHAVIOR
Creators: name: Ozlu, Mustafa Goksu
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Photonics, optoelectronics and optical communications

description: One of the longstanding goals of photonics research has been to obtain strong optical nonlinearities. A promising method to achieve this goal is to operate in the so-called epsilon near zero (ENZ) spectral regime, where the real part of the dielectric permittivity changes sign. If accompanied by low losses, this region enables a platform to achieve extraordinarily high nonlinear response, along with many other interesting optical phenomena. In this work, some of the common all-optical switching structures employing homogeneous ENZ materials are investigated under varying conditions of frequency, incidence angle, and polarization. The optimum switching conditions have been highlighted to pave the way forward to the best experimental configurations in future studies. Moreover, the properties of some of the emerging novel plasmonic materials such as aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) and titanium nitride (TiN) are investigated, specifically for ENZ applications. Their thickness-dependent crystalline structure and carrier densities are employed as a method to control their optical properties. A near-perfect absorption scheme is demonstrated utilizing the Ferrell-Berreman mode occurring at the ENZ region of ultrathin AZO and TiN film. The ENZ frequency and the associated absorption peak of AZO are engineered through thickness-dependence to cover most of the telecom range. This work covers the theoretical background for ENZ nonlinearities and looks into the materials aspect for better control of nonlinearities in experimental realizations.

Dynamic Discrete Choice Estimation of Lifetime Deer Hunting License Demand
Creators: name: Kim, Yusun
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Agricultural economics

description: The sales of deer licenses, one of the most important revenue sources for wildlife management at the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), have been declining for a decade. To increase its funds, the agency is considering launching a new lifetime deer license, which would allow hunters to harvest deer (and possibly other species) each year for the rest of their lives in exchange for a large, up-front fee. The forward-looking nature of the decision to buy a lifetime license means hunters’ choice behavior is necessarily dynamic. We estimate a dynamic discrete choice model using data from a discrete choice experiment (DCE) to capture this forward-looking choice behavior and to estimate hunters’ preferences for different lifetime license designs. We find that our dynamic model better fits our data than a standard, static choice model. We also find that hunters prefer licenses that allow (i) harvest of antlered and antlerless deer to one that only allows harvest of antlerless deer and (ii) harvest of additional species beyond just deer. We use our model to estimate the price of lifetime licenses that maximizes IDNR revenues. This is the first study to estimate the value of lifetime deer hunting licenses using a dynamic approach. This dynamic approach can help improve the IDNR’s decision-making to maximize its revenue and stabilize wildlife management funds.

Air Breakdown in Contact Electrification
Creators: name: Tao, Hongcheng
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Mechanical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Contact electrification of solids in a gas medium involves two stages, i.e., surface charge deposition immediately at separation, and dissipation due to dielectric breakdown of the medium as the gap increases. The presumption that such gas breakdown obeys Paschen's law, which is conventionally determined for gas between electrodes with constant charge supply, is widely accepted yet unverified. The present work experimentally validates such dependence of the breakdown voltage of air between charged dielectric surfaces on both its pressure and the gap distance. Sample surfaces are brought to cycles of contact electrification in a vacuum chamber and charge relaxation due to air breakdown is monitored with measurements of the Coulomb attraction by fixing either the air pressure or gap distance and varying the other. The results indicate thresholds of pressure and distance to facilitate investigations of the raw amount of charge transfer prior to any breakdown discharge, which is adopted to examine the saturation trend of surface charge density in the contact electrification of multiple material combinations using the same test apparatus. Comparatively consistent results are obtained in repeated tests for a variety of contact pairs, while a reduction of saturated surface charge density is observed for PTFE against PDMS after breakdown discharge in low-pressure air, which is preliminarily attributed to alternations of PTFE surfaces caused by accelerated cation strikes during air breakdown, based on SEM images and estimations of particle energy in Townsend avalanches. Conclusions on both the general raw level of surface charge density and the air breakdown during separation in contact electrification are applied to complement models of vibro-impact triboelectric energy harvesters for predicting their performance under various air pressures and physical dimensions in order to either prevent or exploit air breakdown to enhance the power output.
Continuum Dislocation Dynamics Modeling of Mesoscale Crystal Plasticity at Finite Deformation
Creators: name: Starkey, Kyle R
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Metals and alloy materials
Theory and design of materials

description: Over the past two decade, there have been renewed interests in the use of continuum models of dislocation to predict the plastic strength of metals from basic properties of dislocations. Such interests have been motivated by the unique self-organized dislocation microstructures that develop during plastic deformation of metals and the need to understand their origin and connection with strength of metals. This thesis effort focuses on the theoretical development of a vector-density based representation of dislocation dynamics on the mesoscale accounting for the kinematics of finite deformation. This model consists of two parts, the first is the development of the transport-reaction equations governing dislocation dynamics within the finite deformation setting, and the second focuses on the computational solution of the resulting model. The transport-reaction equations come in the form of a set of hyperbolic curl type transport equations, with reaction terms that nonlinearly couple these equations. The equations are also geometrically non-linear due to finite deformation kinematics and by their constitutive closure. The solution of the resulting model consists of two parts that are coupled in a staggered fashion, the crystal mechanics equations are lumped in the stress equilibrium equations, and the dislocation transport-reactions equations. The two sets of equations are solved by the Galerkin and First-Order System Least-Squares (FOSLS) finite element methods. A special attention is given to the accurate modeling of glissile dislocation junctions using de Rahm currents and graph theory ideas. The introduction of these measures requires the derivation of further transport relations. Using homogenization theory, we specialize the proposed model to a mean deformation gradient driven bulk plasticity model. Lastly, we simulate bulk plasticity behavior and compare our results against experiments.
Social Policy Trends: Recessions, Drugs and Their Impact on Property Crime in Calgary

description: RECESSIONS, DRUGS, AND IMPACTS ON PROPERTY CRIME IN CALGARY

The average number of break & enter and vehicle theft incidents in Calgary has increased by more than 50% since early 2015.

The graph reports monthly data on incidents of what we refer to as property crime in the City of Calgary – break and enter and vehicle theft – and its spread over time. The horizontal red lines identify the average number of incidents in each month during two periods: January 2012 to December 2014 and January 2015 to March 2018. The data show a clear jump in the number of property crime incidents beginning in early 2015. Such a sudden and large increase in property crime suggests an equivalently sudden and large change in one or more causal factors, which would explain the increase in property crime incidents. The following two explanations are plausible.

description: The following document is a compilation of four manuscripts which were peer-reviewed and accepted for publication in the following scientific journals: Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechniques, Crystal Growth & Design, Zeitschrift für Anorganische und Allgemeine Chemie ZAAC, and Energetic Materials Frontiers. This work, also, includes excerpts from the author’s review of energetic materials synthesized via reactions with nitroacetonitrile published by RSC Advances. The research presented is the result of a four-year graduate program in the School of Materials Engineering and as part of the Purdue Energetics Research Center (PERC). 1,2,4-Triazine Based Energetic Materials and Improved Nitro-Compound Synthesis briefly addresses the history of energetic materials, key requirements, and ways to modify materials to meet those requirements before transitioning to the research synthesis and characterization. The discussion sections address the synthesis methods of the heterocyclic 1,2,4-triazine structure and alternative routes for the formation of nitro moieties. Also discussed are the methods for chemical characterization, thermal stability, mechanical sensitivity, and the theoretical calculations used to obtain energetic performances for comparison with traditional known explosive materials.
The study of resistance to insecticide active ingredients in relation to population size in the German cockroach (Blattella germanica)
Creators: name: Gits, Madison Patricia
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Other agricultural, veterinary and food sciences not elsewhere classified

description: The German cockroach (Blattella germanica) is one of the most critical urban pests globally due to the health risks, such as asthma, it imposes on people. Insecticides are known to manage their large population sizes, but the rapid rate at which cockroaches develop resistance is a continuing problem. This can be expensive and time-consuming for both the consumer and the pest management professional (PMP) applying the treatment. Each cockroach population is unique because different strains have different resistance profiles, so resistance profiles must be considered. This thesis addressed this little-studied issue in a controlled laboratory setting. Cockroach strains from Indianapolis, Indiana, Danville, Illinois, and Baltimore, Maryland, were used. Fifteen insecticide active ingredients most used by consumers and PMPs were selected for testing in vial bioassays to establish resistance profiles. No choice and choice feeding assays with four currently registered bait products were performed to assess the impacts of competing food and circadian rhythms on bait resistance levels. Selected population growth characteristics were compared in virgin females and nymphs in each cockroach strain to determine if certain population traits were associated with insecticide resistance. The results indicate that emamectin benzoate is the most effective active ingredient in causing the highest mortality in all strains in vial bioassays. No choice assays confirmed vial assay results the best, with Optigard (emamectin benzoate) being the most effective bait in all strains. The time a female carries its egg case and takes for a nymph to become an adult was significantly different across all strains, suggesting possible fitness costs for higher-level multi-resistance. The results acquired from these studies can help develop rapid tests to use in the field based on the no choice feeding assay while also adding more information supporting current resistance and cross-resistance evolution theories.
(Un)doing old boy: performativity at the intersection of elitism, masculinity, and privilege
Creators: name: Meiklejohn, Cameron
Publisher: name: University of Southern Queensland
Year: 2022
Subjects: elite schools; masculinity; privilege; disavowal; poststructuralism

description: Elite boys' schools in Australia have been increasingly scrutinised for the elitism, hyper-masculinity, and privilege inherent within these institutions. This has occurred at a time of cultural and social change, during which elites and elitism have been investigated and interrogated more broadly. Given that the men who emerge from elite boys' schools will likely be placed in positions of power and influence, it is necessary to understand their perspectives on elitism, masculinity, and privilege. Drawing on three case studies that investigated the discursive mediation of masculine subjectivity at the intersection of elitism and privilege, as well as additional material produced from in-depth interviews, this thesis examines how a group of elite boys' school alumni have reconciled schooling experiences that endorsed attitudes, behaviours, and values which are out-of-step with modern society. It explores the meanings of elite boys' schooling experiences and their application as discursive resources in the process of reflecting on, and re-evaluating, what to keep and what to reject in contemporary formations of selfhood. Further, this thesis considers how these peculiar schooling experiences are reconfigured to align with the contemporary values of gender equality, social inclusion, and workplace diversity. The research addresses how the positionality of these men is the product of a complex rendering that combines parental aspirations and wishes, which are realised through elite school choice, conformity with elite school practices and images of well-rounded studenthood, and the role of elite schools in the making of 'men'. The research indicates that disavowal is used as a technique to demonstrate individual capacity and capability, while obscuring the advantages and opportunities acquired from a schooling experience that was economically privileged. Through creating and maintaining the appearance of being morally good, honestly sincere, and well-rounded, disavowal is a performative act that cultivates an appearance that positions the research participants as having emerged from an elite and privileged environment, while not being personally elitist nor entitled. This thesis encourages a more complex understanding of elite masculinities, including the multitude of possibilities surrounding the ways in which men make sense of, and respond to, various forms of privilege. In accounting for disavowal as a technique for asserting virtue and well-roundedness, this research also supports an understanding of how the discursive mediation of self is performed.

Understanding Farmer Financing Preferences by Segmenting the Agricultural Lending Market
Creators: name: Miranda Colon, Xavier
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Agricultural economics

description: Purpose - The goal of this study is to identify the current distinct market segments within the US agricultural credit lending market, predict segment membership based on readily available characteristics, and better understand farmer financing preferences.
 Design/methodology/approach - A two stage clustering analysis was used to identify five distinct market segments. A multinomial logit regression was used to predict segment membership based on demographic and psychographic characteristics.
 Findings - The segmentation analysis produced five distinct market segments. The identified segments are service, convenience, balance, price, and performance.
 Practical implications - This information can aid credit lenders in segmenting the market and tailoring their sales approach to the different farmer segments.
 Originality/value - This paper contributes to the literature in several ways. First, previous studies of farmer selection of lending institutions rely on supply side data (Brewer et al., 2019; Dodson & Koenig, 2004; Ifft and Fiechter, 2020). While these studies are useful in knowing how farmers may be segmented according to their choice set of particular lending institutions, what we cannot examine is why the farmer is choosing that choice set. Our study incorporates psychographic and buying preferences. Prior work has highlighted the trend away from demographics and socioeconomic characteristics towards psychographic characteristics as categories for customer segmentation (Sherrick et al., 1994). Secondly, as described above, much has changed in the agricultural lending markets concerning the lending institutions available to farmers and the technology that changes how farmers and lending institutions interact. Thus, this study updates the literature as farmers preferences may have changed due to the new market structure

description: We consider the problem of developing innovative machine learning tools for online education and evaluate their ability to provide instructional resources. Prediction tasks for student behavior are a complex problem spanning a wide range of topics: we complement current research in student grade prediction and clickstream analysis by considering data from three areas of online learning: Social Learning Networks (SLN), Instructor Feedback, and Learning Management Systems (LMS). In each of these categories, we propose a novel method for modelling data and an associated tool that may be used to assist students and instructors. First, we develop a methodology for analyzing instructor-provided feedback and determining how it correlates with changes in student grades using NLP and NER--based feature extraction. We demonstrate that student grade improvement can be well approximated by a multivariate linear model with average fits across course sections approaching 83\%, and determine several contributors to student success. Additionally, we develop a series of link prediction methodologies that utilize spatial and time-evolving network architectures to pass network state between space and time periods. Through evaluation on six real-world datasets, we find that our method obtains substantial improvements over Bayesian models, linear classifiers, and an unsupervised baseline, with AUCs typically above 0.75 and reaching 0.99. Motivated by Federated Learning, we extend our model of student discussion forums to model an entire classroom as a SLN. We develop a methodology to represent student actions across different course materials in a shared, low-dimensional space that allows characteristics from actions of different types to be passed jointly to a downstream task. Performance comparisons against several baselines in centralized, federated, and personalized learning demonstrate that our model offers more distinctive representations of students in a low-dimensional space, which in turn results in improved accuracy on a common downstream prediction task. Results from these three research thrusts indicate the ability of machine learning methods to accurately model student behavior across multiple data types and suggest their ability to benefit students and instructors alike through future development of assistive tools.

description: Infant and young child feeding practices are suboptimal in Tanzania, but optimal nutrition during the first two years of life is critical for development. At this age, behaviors of caregivers determine children’s diets, but few studies quantify how fathers or couples jointly influence child feeding. We investigate how men and women shape the family food environment to determine children’s diets in rural Mara, Tanzania. This mixed methods study used quantitative baseline data from the Engaging Fathers for Effective Child Nutrition and Development in Tanzania (EFFECTS) trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03759821), including 960 rural households with both parents and a young child. Logistic and linear mixed effects regressions examined associations between parental determinants and exclusive breastfeeding (n=189) and child dietary diversity over one day and one week (n=764 children 6-23 months; n=597 children 9-23 months). Parental determinants measured knowledge of breastfeeding and complementary feeding, self-efficacy on provision of diverse or nutritious diets, workload away from home, social support, household savings, and couples’ communication and decision-making, indicating women’s empowerment. Qualitative data drew from formative research (July-August 2018) conducted with parents of children aged 0-36 months, including eight focus group discussions (FGDs) with mothers and fathers (four FGDs each, 31 and 30 participants, respectively). FGDs were transcribed, translated, quality checked, and coded to identify key themes. The odds of exclusive breastfeeding decreased with mothers’ higher workload away from home and increased with mothers’ reports of more frequent couples’ communication over household decisions. Higher child dietary diversity was linked to mothers’ reports of higher knowledge of nutritious foods, higher social support, and higher couples’ communication frequency and quality. Generally, fathers’ determinants were not associated with children’s diets. Qualitative findings indicated that knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding was common, but challenges of perceived breastmilk insufficiency, women’s workload, and concerns about breastmilk quality led to early introduction of complementary foods. Affordability was a common challenge to appropriate complementary feeding, while couples’ decision-making dynamics and attitudes and beliefs about foods had the potential to be both enablers and barriers. Interventions must improve nutrition knowledge and social support, and they must empower women through joint decision-making and more gender-equitable workloads between parents to enable optimal child diets.

description: Establishing permanent and sustainable human settlements outside Earth presents numerous challenges. The Resilient Extra-Terrestrial Habitat Institute (RETHi) has been established to advance the fundamental knowledge needed to enable and design resilient habitats in deep space, that will adapt, absorb, and rapidly recover from expected and unexpected disruptions without fundamental changes in function or sacrifices in safety. Future extra-terrestrial habitats will rely on several subsystems working synergistically to ensure adequate power supply, life support to crew members, manage extreme environmental conditions, and monitor the health status of the equipment. To study extra-terrestrial habitats, a combination of modeling approaches and experimental validations is necessary, but deep-space conditions cannot be entirely reproduced in a laboratory setting (e.g., micro-gravity effects). To this end, real-time multi-physics cyber-physical testing is a novel approach of simulating and evaluating complex system-of-systems (SoS) that has been applied to investigate the behavior of extra-terrestrial habitats under different scenarios (e.g., meteorite strikes). One of the most critical components which determines the success of the cyber-physical testbed is the transfer system serving as an interface between the physical and cyber substructures. Through this work, a dedicated thermal transfer system has been designed and constructed to provide realistic thermal boundary conditions to the physical habitat according to the real-time simulation results from cyber substructure of the habitat. The extreme temperatures to be found at the interface between the external protective layer of the habitat (cyber) and the interior structural elements (physical) are emulated by means of a cryogenic chiller and an array of cooled panels that cover a dome-style structure. Moreover, the overall architecture of the cyber-physical testbed, the partitioning of the virtual and physical environments, and interface schemes were also established. The experimental results obtained from the thermal transfer system prototype setup were analyzed and interpreted to generate meaningful recommendations for future development and application of the full-sized testbed.
Toxicities of Legacy and Current Use PFAS in an Anuran: Do Larval Exposures Influence Responses to a Terrestrial Pathogen Challenge

description: Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of emerging contaminants that include astrong carbon-flourine bond that makes the compounds resistant to physical, chemical and biological degradation. They are found in drinking water supplies, daily human products, manufacturing facilities, and in areas where aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)was used to extinguish fires. Toxicity levels of these chemicals can vary depending on the characteristics of the specific chemical; longer carbon chain has shown to be more bioaccumulative and toxic than shorter chain length PFAS. Many studies have recognized perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) to be a substantial concern due to their known toxicity to wildlife. For example, studies show strong evidence that PFOA and PFOS suppress the antibody response from animals. Due to adverse health effects and public concern, the U.S stopped perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) manufacturing and switched to the production of an alternative fluorinated compound known as hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO) dimer acid or GenX, which is thought to beless bioaccumulative and therefore, potentially less toxic. These anthropogenic pollutants are one of many stressors acting on aquatic organisms like anurans. Natural stressors such as the devastating fungal pathogen Batrachocytrium dendrobatidis(Bd) is another stressor impacting amphibian populations. Despite the co-occurrence of these stressors, no studies have examined interactive effects of the fungal pathogen Bd and PFAS, or whether PFAS effects carry over into the terrestrial environment aftera larvae exposure. This study tested the growth and developmental effects of PFOS, PFOA, and GenX, on gray treefrog (Hyla versicolor) tadpoles, followed by a Bd challenge in metamorphs. Our results demonstrate that a PFAS larval exposure interacted witha terrestrial Bdchallenge to influence growth and development. Bdexposed animals were significantly shorter (smaller snout vent length) and had a significant increase in body condition and mass. This is the first study to report effects on amphibian terrestrial life stages after larval exposure to PFAS and to report an increased sensitivity to Bd. The environmentally relevant concentrations tested in this study (<10 parts per billion) lend ecological significance to these results however, additional studies are needed to understand the mechanisms behind these effects.

description: Recently, intriguing phenomena of superconductivity, type-II Weyl semimetal or quantum spin Hall states were discovered in metastable 1T'-type VIB-group transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Here, we report that monoclinic phase WS2 was discovered and synthesized in our experiments. The intrinsic superconducting transition was observed in monoclinic WS2 with a transition temperature Tc of 8.8 K which is the highest among previously reported TMDs without any fine-tuning process. Intersteing, topological insulator state, defined by topological invariant Z2, was also discovered with a single Dirac cone on the surface, which is different from all topological states reported in TMDs. Further, the electronic structure was found to have a strong anisotropy by Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations and first-principles calculations. Our findings reveal that monoclinic WS2 might be a new topological superconductivity candidate with a strong anisotropy.
