description: We consider singularly perturbed differential systems whose degenerate equations have an isolated but not simple solution. In that case, the standard theory to establish a slow integral manifold near this solution does not work. Applying scaling transformations and using the technique of gauge functions we reduce the original singularly perturbed problem to a regularized one such that the existence of slow integral manifolds can be established by means of the standard theory of singular perturbations. We illustrate our method by several examples.
Multi-area Thévenin equivalent based power flow techniques
Creators: name: De Maeseneer, Alexander Guido
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis explores the possibility of applying the existing Multi-Area Thévenin Equivalent (MATE) algorithm to the power flow problem. Various theoretical considerations/difficulties of handling link connections in power flow are discussed. The current equation power flow program is examined in hopes of aiding link decoupling by taking advantage of the current equation’s inherent symmetrical links. However, implementation and testing of the current equation program indicated contrary results to recently published material on current equation programs. In an attempt to make MATE viable for power flow, one of MATE’s bottlenecks was examined, the link matrix. It was found that the problem could be alleviated by using a multi-level approach. This approach would allow link computation to be distributed across the subsystems and levels. An existing multi-level MATE algorithm has already been proposed but was implemented for only two levels. This thesis proposes a massively parallel algorithm for a general number of levels. The distribution of the link matrix allows for mass parallelization of the system matrix into very small subsystems. A flop analysis of the proposed multi-level MATE algorithm reveals that the majority of the computation is spent performing independent small matrix multiplication operations. Upon inspection of the strengths of the proposed multi-level MATE algorithm, it appears that the algorithm would benefit from a parallel computing platform such as modern GPUs. Today’s GPUs contain hundreds to thousands of scalar processors providing approximately an order of magnitude in computational power over multi-core CPUs. This has garnered the GPU much attention in many scientific disciplines. To test the feasibility of the MATE’s algorithm on the GPU, the algorithm’s most common operation, small matrix multiplication, was implemented. The test case was arranged to simulate the conditions of a 15,000 node system being factorized. The routine is meant to serve as the algorithm’s BLAS since linear algebra libraries on the GPU are not meant to handle very small matrices. The routine was found to successfully achieve a decent portion of the GPU’s peak flops.

description: An important disturbance regime in the grasslands of North America is the activity of fossorial mammals, whose digging activity creates small, prolific mounds of bare sub-soil within the grassland matrix. This thesis examined these mounds in a stabilizing sand dune ecosystem in the context of their spatial extent and distribution, and their implications on soil properties. Sub-decimeter-resolution aerial imagery from a small unmanned aircraft system (UAS) revealed that mounds are less spatially extensive than reported in other studies, and that the distribution of mounds is responsive to large-scale landscape features. Soil analyses revealed the mounds are essentially preserving small pockets of a dune’s pre-stabilization condition, mobilizing nearly pure sand poor in C and N but relatively rich in S to the surface, and retarding the build-up of organic matter. This suggests that mounds from fossorial mammals may play an under-recognized role in the dynamics of dune stabilization and succession.

description: The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway controls embryonic development and tissue homeostasis after birth. This requires regulated solubilization of dual-lipidated, firmly plasma membrane-associated Shh precursors from producing cells. Although it is firmly established that the resistance-nodulation-division transporter Dispatched (Disp) drives this process, it is less clear how lipidated Shh solubilization from the plasma membrane is achieved. We previously showed that Disp enhances proteolytic Shh solubilization from its lipidated terminal peptide anchors. This process, called shedding, converts tightly membrane-associated hydrophobic Shh precursors into delipidated soluble proteins. We show here that Disp-mediated Shh shedding is modulated by a serum factor that we identify as high-density lipoprotein (HDL). In addition to serving as soluble sinks for free membrane cholesterol, HDLs also accept the cholesterolmodified Shh peptide from Disp. The cholesteroylated Shh peptide is required and sufficient for Disp-mediated transfer because mCherry linked to cholesteroylated peptides associates with HDL in a Disp-dependent manner, but an N-palmitoylated Shh variant that lacks C-cholesterol does not. Disp-mediated Shh transfer to HDL is finalized by proteolytic processing of the palmitoylated N-terminal membrane anchor. Unlike dual processed soluble Shh with moderate bioactivity, HDL-associated N-processed Shh is highly bioactive. We suggest that the purpose of different post-translationally modified soluble Shh forms generated from one dual-lipidated cellular precursor is to fine-tune cellular responses in a tissue type-specific and time-specific manner.

Quantifying development : using T₂ relaxation to investigate myelination of the corpus callosum in preadolescents
Creators: name: Whitaker, Kirstie Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis describes a novel voxel‐based analysis of the transverse (T₂) relaxation decay curve to quantify myelin water fraction (MWF). Multi‐echo T₂ relaxation decay data was acquired for 5 preadolescent males (age range 9 – 12 years). A novel signal to noise filter appropriate for multi‐exponential T₂ analysis was then applied to remove voxels which did not accurately fit the modelled curve. The remaining voxels were designated “highly myelinated” if their MWF was greater than a certain critical value. A range of signal to noise filter cut‐off values and highly myelinated critical values were investigated. This thesis demonstrates, for the first time, a very strong and significant correlation (r = 0.990, p = 0.001) between verbal intelligence quotient scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children – Revised and myelination in the corpus callosum of developing children. This relationship is supported by a growing number of studies showing a correlation between white matter development and cognitive ability. In addition, due to the restricted age range of our subjects, this work is able to show the individual variations in myelin maturation rates.

description: A 2-switch is an edge addition/deletion operation that changes adjacencies in the graph while preserving the degree of each vertex. A well known result states that graphs with the same degree sequence may be changed into each other via sequences of 2-switches. We show that if a 2-switch changes the isomorphism class of a graph, then it must take place in one of four configurations. We also present a sufficient condition for a 2-switch to change the isomorphism class of a graph. As consequences, we give a new characterization of matrogenic graphs and determine the largest hereditary graph family whose members are all the unique realizations (up to isomorphism) of their respective degree sequences.

Continuous-Variable Quantum Computation of Oracle Decision Problems

description: Quantum information processing is appealing due its ability to solve certain problems quantitatively faster than classical information processing. Most quantum algorithms have been studied in discretely parameterized systems, but many quantum systems are continuously parameterized. The field of quantum optics in particular has sophisticated techniques for manipulating continuously parameterized quantum states of light, but the lack of a code-state formalism has hindered the study of quantum algorithms in these systems. To address this situation, a code-state formalism for the solution of oracle decision problems in continuously-parameterized quantum systems is developed. In discrete-variable quantum computation, oracle decision problems exploit quantum parallelism through the use of the Hadamard transform. The challenge in continuous-variable quantum computation is to exploit similar quantum parallelism by generalizing the Hadamard transform to the continuous Fourier transform while avoiding non-renormalizable states. This straightforward relationship between the operators in the discrete and continuous settings make oracle decision problems the ideal test-bed. However, as the formalism results in a representation of discrete information strings as proper code states, the approach also allows for the study of a wider range of quantum algorithms in continuously-parameterized quantum systems having both finite- and infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. In the infinite-dimensional case, we study continuous-variable quantum algorithms for the solution of the Deutsch--Jozsa oracle decision problem implemented within a single harmonic-oscillator. Orthogonal states are used as the computational bases, and we show that, contrary to a previous claim in the literature, this implementation of quantum information processing has limitations due to a position-momentum trade-off of the Fourier transform. We further demonstrate that orthogonal encoding bases are not unique, and using the coherent states of the harmonic oscillator as the computational bases, our formalism enables quantifying the relative performances of different choices of the encoding bases. We extend our formalism to include quantum algorithms in the continuously parameterized yet finite-dimensional Hilbert space of a coherent spin system. We show that the highest-squeezed spin state possible can be approximated by a superposition of two states thus transcending the usual model of using a single basis state as algorithm input. As a particular example, we show that the close Hadamard oracle-decision problem, which is related to the Hadamard codewords of digital communications theory, can be solved quantitatively more efficiently using this computational model than by any known classical algorithm.

description: We study the dependence of the pair-correlation function, $g(r)$, and particle mobility on packing fraction in a dense three-dimensional packing of soft colloids made of poly N-isopropyl acrylamide (pNIPAM), a thermo-sensitive gel. We find that $g(r)$ for our samples is qualitatively like that of a liquid at all packing fractions. There is a peak in $g_{1}$, the height of the first peak of $g(r)$, as a function of packing fraction. This peak is identified as the thermal remnant of the T=0 divergence found at the jamming transition in simulations of soft frictionless spheres at zero-temperature. Near where there is a peak in $g_{1}$ the particles become arrested on the time scale of the experiment.

A Complete Evaluation of Arithmetic in Real Hyperelliptic Curves

description: Real hyperelliptic curves admit two structures: the Jacobian and the infrastructure. While both structures in real models could be employed for cryptographic purposes, it was not clear which one has better performance in practice. Mireles Morales [46] described the relationship between these two structures, and made the assertion that when implemented with balanced divisor arithmetic, the Jacobian generically yields more efficient arithmetic than the infrastructure for cryptographic applications. However, he did not support his claim via a mathematical proof or an implementation. In this thesis, we describe that exactly how the infrastructure and the Jacobian are related through an accurate and detailed mathematical and computational analysis. We suggest an alternative distance map for the infrastructure in order to improve the efficiency of this structure. Our mathematical investigation shows that the infrastructure with the new distance and the Jacobian have identical performance in practice for cryptographic sized curves. We prove this results mathematically and verify their correctness computationally.

description: While enrolment numbers suggest high participation rates of immigrants and an increase in diversity on Canadian post-secondary campuses, a lag in support for the needs of immigrant learners is evident. This single interpretive case study explores the transition experiences of immigrant adult learners at Bow Valley College, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and contributes to the Canadian discourse on adult learning in an increasingly diverse post-secondary environment. The data gathered through semi-structured interviews surfaced four transition themes: 1) socio-cultural identity; 2) interpersonal connections; 3) educational factors; and 4) external factors. Results provide insights for ongoing dialogue, and implications for practice including improvements in intercultural competency, language support, support for understanding institutional systems and structures, key contacts and connection to community resources. Further research based on immigrant characteristics including gender, immigration route, past life experiences, lower language proficiency, educational backgrounds and expectations, are suggested.

description: Background: This study aimed to understand whether there is a pattern of change in levels of anxiety and depression between the second and third trimesters of pregnancy that are associated with a risk of PTB. Chronic stress was assessed as a potential modifier of the relationship. Methods: This study conducted a secondary data analysis on the All Our Babies prospective cohort. Logistic regression modeling was used to analyze the data. Results: A worsening of anxiety during pregnancy increased the odds of preterm delivery (OR 2.70, 95% CI 1.28, 5.69; p=0.009). An improvement in anxiety reduced the odds of PTB (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.94, 0.98; p=<0.001). Consistently low depression decreased the odds of PTB (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.45, 0.96; p=0.029). Chronic stress did not modify any of these relationships. Conclusions: Efforts should be made to replicate these results in a cohort with a larger sample size.

An increase is found in both real and imaginary parts at increasing damage densities. The index depth variation is determined in the whole wavelength range between 250 and 1690 nm. The dependence from the vacancy density is evaluated, highlighting a deviation from linearity in the high-damage-density regime. A considerable increase (up to 5%) in the real part of the index is observed, attributed to an increase in polarizability, thus offering new microfabrication possibilities for waveguides and other photonic structures in diamond.

description: The goal of this research is to analyze the challenges that African immigrants encounter in entrepreneurship. The Canadian government acknowledges that immigrant entrepreneurship is important for the economic growth of the country and thus has made Canada a viable place for immigrant entrepreneurs. Little is known about African immigrant in entrepreneurship. Therefore this study gives a voice to African immigrant entrepreneurs by employing a qualitative in-depth interview method to understand the challenges encountered by these entrepreneurs in Calgary. Major findings of the study include: racism from whites, internalized racism and gender differences. Critical Race Theory and Feminist theory were the theoretical frameworks used in the study. The study has also examined how racism and sexism interplay and disadvantage Black women in entrepreneurship. This research is to fill in gaps in literature on immigrant entrepreneurship in Canada by adding the experiences of African immigrants and analyzing how racism against racialised groups in Canada continues to exist.

The dynamics of the growing tissue are described by a set of coupled tensor equations in non-Euclidean (curved) space. These coupled equations represent a novel feedback mechanism between growth and curvature dynamics. For 1D growth, numerical simulations are compared to two measures of root growth. First, modular growth along the simulated root shows an elongation zone common to many species of plant roots. Second, the relative elemental growth rate (REGR) calculated in silico exhibits temporal dynamics recently characterized in high-resolution root growth studies but which thus far lack a biological hypothesis to explain them. Namely, the REGR can evolve from a single peak localized near the root tip to a double-peak structure. In our model, this is a direct consequence of considering growth as both a geometric reaction-diffusion process and expansion due to a distributed source of new materials. In 2D, we study a circularly symmetric growing disk with emergent negative curvatures. These results are compared against thin disk experiments, which are a proxy model for plant leaves. These results also apply to the curvature evolution and the inhomogeneous growth pattern of the Acetabularia cap. Lastly, we extend the model to anisotropic disks and predict the growth dynamics for a 2D curved surface which develops an elongated shape with localized ruffling. Our model also provides several measures of the dynamics of tissue growth. These include the time evolution of the metric and velocity field, which are dynamical variables in the model, as well as expansion, shear and rotation which are deformation tensors characterizing the growth of the tissue. The latter are physically measurable quantities that remain to be fully explored using modern tissue growth imagining techniques.

description: Perinatal stroke causes most hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Understanding developmental motor plasticity after perinatal injury is key to developing new therapies. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) facilitates this by interrogating functional white matter tracts (e.g. corticospinal tract, CST) but is not well studied in perinatal stroke. Our aim was to quantify CST integrity following perinatal stroke with DTI, evaluating different methodologies and correlations to motor outcome. Twenty-six children (Alberta Perinatal Stroke Project) underwent standardized DTI. Fiber tracking across different CST sections and ROI analysis compared CST diffusion variable (FA/AD/RD/MD) ratios (lesioned/non-lesioned). Correlations with validated motor outcome measures (AHA, MA, PSOM) were sought. DTI quantified differences in all CST diffusion parameters. Decreased FA and increased RD in the lesioned CST demonstrated the most robust correlations with motor outcomes. Analysis of defined CST subtracts may offer advantages over traditional DTI techniques. CST DTI carries both clinical and research utility in perinatal stroke.

Molecular Mechanisms and Functional Role of Hepatic Invariant Natural Killer T cell Recruitment Following Sterile Injury in the Liver

description: After traumatic injury, the body must return to homeostasis as quickly as possible through initial destruction of injured cells and clearance of debris (inflammation) followed by a critical switch towards vascular and tissue reconstruction (non-inflammatory restitution). While many different immune cells are known to infiltrate a site of injury for specific effector functions, it is reasonable to hypothesize that some cells function as directors of inflammation whereupon sensing the degree of injury, these cells orchestrate the local immune response towards a restitution phase by affecting the local cytokine milieu. This progression could be defective in non-resolving sterile injuries where a failure to transition to repair or a persistence of inflammation leads to chronic inflammation. Invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cells are innate lymphocytes that prominently regulate inflammation due to their rapid release of pivotal cytokines during pathological states, which can then differentially impact the downstream immune response and disease outcome. In this thesis, using intravital microscopy, we observed that patrolling iNKT cells in the liver were initially selectively repelled from a site of hepatic injury but were subsequently strategically arrested via self-antigens and cytokines, circumscribing the injured site at exactly the location where monocytes co-localized and hepatocytes proliferated. iNKT cell activation signals were temporally- and spatially-regulated as self-antigen presentation via CD1d occurred first before being closely followed by cytokine signaling. Additionally, both activation signals were located adjacent to the injury and not further away. Activation of iNKT cells through these two mechanisms resulted in the production of IL-4 but not IFN-γ which promoted increased hepatocyte proliferation, monocyte transition (from classical to tissue repair monocytes) and improved healing. Disruption of any of these mechanisms led to a delay of wound healing. We show that self-antigens, beyond the known role in iNKT cell development, were fundamental for monocyte transition, appropriate collagen deposition and hepatocyte proliferation. Hepatic iNKT cells were instrumental in directing and modulating the transformation from inflammation to tissue restitution after sterile injury in the liver for essential timely wound repair.

description: We discuss various formulations of null polygons in full, non-chiral N=4 superspace in terms of spacetime, spinor and twistor variables. We also note that null polygons are necessarily fat along fermionic directions, a curious fact which is compensated by suitable equivalence relations in physical theories on this superspace.

Developing an Interface Management (IM) Model for Construction Projects

description: Interface management (IM) is a main factor in the success of construction projects. Although there is no agreement about the definition of interfaces and IM, many researchers discuss the boundary conditions between tools, phases, systems, physical elements/components, people, organizations, and other elements. For the last two to, three decades there has been less than necessary awareness of the essentials of IM and the severity of interface problems, and this has negatively affected project performance. Failure to properly manage interfaces impacts project performance as defined by scope control, quality, schedule, cost, safety, and resources. The objectives of this study are twofold: (a) enhancing the IM among different project participants involved in the construction projects and (b) increasing the effectiveness of IM throughout the project lifecycle, focusing specifically on the engineering/design phase. The study uses both qualitative and quantitative approaches (mixed methods) to investigate, identify, and classify interface problem factors in construction projects. This study is divided into three phases. The first phase categorizes IM factors contributing to interface conflicts among different project participants engaged in construction projects. The second phase then makes use of these variables to develop a multiple-regression analysis to develop models between underlying interface problem factors and project performance indicators. Finally, based on the results of the first and the second phases, the third phase consists of developing a conceptual framework (RIBA framework) and use case models to study the IM relationships among owner, contractor, and designer to identify the main responsibilities for each one, highlight the critical IM areas, and consequently provide suggestions for improving and enhancing IM. The results of this research study could assist engineers, architects, and others within the construction industry to study and examine the interfaces and the project performance during the project’s early stages. This could in turn serve to minimize project delay and cost overruns and reduce conflict among different project participants involved in the construction projects, which will influence project performance positively.

description: This article reviews the polarizability model and its applications to ferroelectric perovskite oxides. The motivation for the introduction of the model is discussed and nonlinear oxygen ion polarizability effects and their lattice dynamical implementation outlined. While a large part of this work is dedicated to results obtained within the self-consistent-phonon approximation (SPA), also nonlinear solutions of the model are handled which are of interest to the physics of relaxor ferroelectrics, domain wall motions, incommensurate phase transitions. The main emphasis is to compare the results of the model with experimental data and to predict novel phenomena.
