description: Chiral metamaterials allow for obtaining very large chiral optical effects which result specifically from the interplay of electric/magnetic dipoles of the ''artificial atoms'' and the magnetic/electric component of the incident light field. We investigate double-layered chiral metamaterial designs with respect to their circular dichroism and optical rotatory power that is orders of magnitude larger than in, e.g., a solution of chiral sugar molecules.

description: We consider one loop graviton corrections to scalar field Green's functions in the de Sitter phase of an inflationary space-time, a topic relevant to the computation of cosmological observables beyond linear order. By embedding de-Sitter space into an ultraviolet complete theory such as M-theory we argue that the ultraviolet (UV) cutoff of the effective field theory should be taken to be fixed in physical coordinates, whereas the infrared (IR) cutoff is expanding as space expands. In this context, we demonstrate how to implement three different regularization schemes -- the brute force cutoff regularization, dimensional regularization and Pauli-Villars regularization -- obtaining the same result for the scalar propagator if we use any of the three regularization schemes.

title: Hausgemeinschaften - neue Wohn- und Versorgungskonzepte in der stationären Versorgung dementiell erkrankter älterer Menschen
Creators: name: Tellers, Claudia
Publisher: name: FH Münster
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: 610 Medizin und Gesundheit

description: Aufgrund des demografischen Wandels werden die Gesellschaften Europas mit einer zunehmend älteren Bevölkerung und damit einer immer größeren Anzahl Demenzerkrankter konfrontiert werden. Dem gegenüber steht ein abnehmendes Pflegepotential in den Familien, so dass mit einem weiter ansteigenden Anteil Demenzerkrankter in den Alten- und Pflegeheimen zu rechnen ist. Dort finden sie Versorgungsstrukturen vor, die häufig nicht ihren Bedürfnissen entsprechen. Dies führt nicht nur zu den häufig zu beobachtenden Verhaltensauffälligkeiten dementiell veränderter Menschen, sondern auch zu einem erhöhten Mortalitätsrisiko. Wohn- und Hausgemeinschaften bieten eine Alternative zu den häufig defizitären traditionellen Versorgungsformen. Diese familienähnliche Wohn- und Lebensform mit ihren Konzepten der Alltagsnähe, der Überschaubarkeit und der Geborgenheit durch die Präsenz einer Bezugsperson können Demenzerkrankten Sicherheit, Vertrautheit und Orientierung bieten. Beispielhaft werden sieben Umsetzungsformen des Hausgemeinschaftskonzepts vorgestellt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass kaum eine Einrichtung das vom Kuratorium Deutscher Altershilfe entwickelte Konzept vollständig umsetzen konnte. Besonders bei den Konzepten der Dezentralisierung der hauswirtschaftlichen Tätigkeiten und der ständigen Präsenz einer Bezugsperson in den Hausgemeinschaften, mussten viele der untersuchten Einrichtungen von dem idealtypischen KDA-Modell abweichen. Die betrachteten Evaluationen zu den Hausgemeinschaften zeigen alle einen positiven Einfluss dieses Versorgungskonzeptes auf die Lebens- und Betreuungsqualität der demenzerkrankten Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner, auch wenn der krankheitsbedingte Abbau der kognitiven Leistungskompetenz und der Alltagskompetenz nicht verhindert werden konnte. Dies wird auch durch die Erfahrungsberichte von Hausgemeinschaften bestätigt. Bei diesen Erfahrungsberichten werden aber auch Probleme bei der Umsetzung des Konzepts deutlich. Bei der Durchspielung des KDA-Hausgemeinschaften-Konzepts in verschiedenen Umsetzungsszenarien zeigt sich, dass dieses Konzept mit der Kostenstruktur eines Modellaltenheims nicht umsetzbar war. Unter Verzicht auf eine ständige Präsenz von Hauswirtschaftskräften, konnte aber ein praktikabler Umsetzungsvorschlag für eine Hausgemeinschaft mit acht Personen entwickelt werden.

description: The flow of charm is calculated in 2+1 ideal hydrodynamics by introducing the charge of $c\bar{c}$ pair assuming that the number of $c\bar{c}$ pairs is conserved in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. It is found that the mean radial flow velocity of charm quarks is smaller than that of bulk matter by 10$\sim$15 \% and the measured $v_2$ of heavy-flavor electrons is reproduced up to $p_T^e=$ 1.5 GeV/c in Au+Au collision at RHIC. The same flow is applied to regenerated $J/ψ$ and its $v_2$ is discussed.

The Hybrid Density Filter for Nonlinear Estimation based on Hybrid Conditional Density
Creators: name: Huber, Marco F.
name: Hanebeck, Uwe D.
Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2007

description: In nonlinear Bayesian estimation it is generally inevitable to incorporate approximate descriptions of the exact estimation algorithm. There are two possible ways to involve approximations: Approximating the nonlinear stochastic system model or approximating the prior probability density function. The key idea of the introduced novel estimator called Hybrid Density Filter relies on approximating the nonlinear system, thus approximating conditional densities. These densities nonlinearly relate the current system state to the future system state at predictions or to potential measurements at measurement updates. A hybrid density consisting of both Dirac delta functions and Gaussian densities is used for an optimal approximation. This paper addresses the optimization problem for treating the conditional density approximation. Furthermore, efficient estimation algorithms are derived based upon the special structure of the hybrid density, which yield a Gaussian mixture representation of the system state's density.
Studio sperimentale del flusso di ricircolo e del rumore in un ventilatore assiale
Creators: name: JAFELICE, FRANCESCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2018

description: Il presente lavoro di tesi � incentrato sullo studio del flusso di ricircolo attraverso il gioco d?apice di ventilatori assiali per sistemi di raffreddamento automobilistici. Questo disturbo aerodinamico si comporta come un meccanismo di generazione di rumore con effetti molto significativi e, spesso, rappresenta la pi� importante sorgente di rumore alle basse frequenze, in grado di fornire contributi di natura sia tonale che a banda larga nello spettro di SPL. Nell?elaborato vengono presentati i risultati di misure acustiche (con microfono singolo) ed aerodinamiche con tecniche Laser Doppler Velocimetry (misure
lungo traverse radiali) e Particle Image Velocimetry (misure sul piano meridiano).
La campagna sperimentale � stata condotta a differenti condizioni di funzionamento e differenti velocit� di rotazione; i dati acquisiti sono stati elaborati con la tecnica di media di insieme in fase con la posizione del rotore, che ha consentito di estrarre le componenti del segnale con frequenza fondamentale pari alla frequenza di rotazione. A differenza di quanto poteva essere atteso, in certi casi � stata rilevata una particolare dipendenza del flusso e del rumore generato dalla velocit� di rotazione che evidenzia uno scostamento dalla similitudine.
Ci� � causato dal fatto che le piccole deformazioni del rotore, dell?ordine di pochi millimetri e dovute al carico palare ed alla forza centrifuga, sono sufficienti a modificare il flusso in uscita dal gioco, che tende a divenire centrifugo invece che rivolto assialmente verso monte. Si tratta quindi di un fenomeno molto complesso e fortemente sensibile anche a piccoli dettagli geometrici.
Dato che il flusso di ricircolo � instazionario ma non � periodico alla frequenza di rotazione, non � stato possibile estrarne la struttura temporale tramite la media in fase.
Per�, � stato possibile ricavare informazioni sulla sua struttura istantanea dalle misure PIV mediante l?impiego della tecnica della decomposizione ortogonale propria. In particolare, si nota una coerenza fra la transizione degli spettri del SPL e la natura e la disposizione spaziale delle strutture vorticose individuate.
The biology of deep soil microbacteria
Creators: name: Li, Ka Chi Jarvis
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections has been one of the most significant breakthroughs in modern medicine. However, drug resistance is increasingly threatening the efficacy of the current repertoire of antimicrobials. The search for novel classes of antimicrobials from microbes in varied natural environments has become a useful approach to this issue. The topic of my thesis is to study the resistome and the microbial composition of deep soil samples collected from the Vancouver campus of UBC, and to use these soils in the isolation of Actinobacteria with the potential of producing new antimicrobials. The detection of antibiotic resistance genes in these soils was carried out by a PCR approach. I found a spatial relationship between the presence of genes aac(3), erm, vanX and tetM/otrA and the different microbial populations in various layers of soil. The bacterial community compositions of these soils were determined by metagenomic sequencing of the small subunit 16S rRNA gene. The results of these analyses prompted a search in the Actinobacteria-rich soil samples as the sources for isolation of novel antibiotic-producing bacteria. Twenty-two bacterial isolates were isolated and screened for the production of inhibitory compounds against a panel of bacterial pathogens. The principal focus of this thesis is the study of Microbacterium strains isolated from soil. Microbacterium is a genus of Actinobacteria first discovered in 1919 by Dr. Sigurd Orla-Jensen. To date, there have been 97 distinct species of microbacteria identified from a wide variety of natural, clinical and manmade environments. Representatives of the genus have been implicated as plant commensals and for the bioremediation of environmental contaminants. The microbacteria have not been studied for the production of antimicrobials. Microbacterium sp. D3N3, isolated from a deep soil sample, produces phenylacetic acid which displays broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and other bioactivities such as gene activation in Staphylococcus aureus as well as weak additive interactions with the antibiotics tetracycline, colistin, ampicillin and novobiocin. Four microbacteriophages that infect two Microbacterium strains from this work were isolated from the UBC wastewater treatment plant, sea water and a soil sample from UBC Wreck beach.

description: We report a systematic empirical study of nanoparticle internalization into cells via non-specific pathways. The nanoparticles were comprised of commercial quantum dots (QDs) that were highly visible under a fluorescence confocal microscope. Surface-modified QDs with basic biologically-significant moieties, e.g. carboxyl, amino, streptavidin were used, in combination with the surface derivatization with polyethylene glycol (PEG) in a range of immortalized cell lines. Internalization rates were derived from image analysis and a detailed discussion about the effect of nanoparticle size, charge and surface groups is presented. We find that PEG-derivatization dramatically suppresses the non-specific uptake while PEG-free carboxyl and amine functional groups promote QD internalization. These uptake variations displayed a remarkable consistency across different cell types. The reported results are important for experiments concerned with cellular uptake of surface-functionalized nanomaterials, both when non-specific internalization is undesirable and also when it is intended for material to be internalized as efficiently as possible.

description: Prediction of stable crystal structures at given pressure-temperature conditions, based only on the knowledge of the chemical composition, is a central problem of condensed matter physics. This extremely challenging problem is often termed "crystal structure prediction problem", and recently developed evolutionary algorithm USPEX (Universal Structure Predictor: Evolutionary Xtallography) made an important progress in solving it, enabling efficient and reliable prediction of structures with up to ~40 atoms in the unit cell using ab initio methods. Here we review this methodology, as well as recent progress in analyzing energy landscape of solids (which also helps to analyze results of USPEX runs). We show several recent applications - (1) prediction of new high-pressure phases of CaCO3, (2) search for the structure of the polymeric phase of CO2 ("phase V"), (3) high-pressure phases of oxygen, (4) exploration of possible stable compounds in the Xe-C system at high pressures, (5) exotic high-pressure phases of elements boron and sodium.
I frammenti dell'erudita Dem�: edizione, traduzione e commento, con un'introduzione sull'allegoresi antica
Creators: name: SAVIO, MARTINA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2018

description: Demo was an allegorical exegete of Homer. The tradition preserves nine fragments under the name of Demo. These fragments are transmitted respectively by the scholia to the Iliad, precisely the classes of D-Scholia and Exegetical scholia, by the Parekbolai on Homer?s Iliad and on Homer?s Odyssey of Eustathius of Thessalonica, and by the scholia to Lucian. There are also four testimonies about Demo respectively in the Suda lexicon, in the Allegories of the Iliad and of the Odyssey by John Tzetzes, and in a letter of the Byzantine physician, rhetor and scholar Michael Italicus. The fragments contain the interpretation of some passages of Iliad and Odyssey. These interpretations consist in tracking down in the Homeric text, by means of a systematic application of substitutive allegoresis, hidden allusions to physical-astronomical phenomena, which are frequently presented in detail and by way of lexicon and definitions characteristic of scientific-specialized contexts. A global reconsideration of this female scholar based on an accurate analysis of the texts transmitted under her name results to be essential in order to remove the ?chronogical prejudice? weighing on her, starting from Ludwich?s edition in the early 1900s. Ludwich indeed collocated Demo in the 5th c. AD (see A. Ludwich, Die Homerdeuterin Demo. Zweite Bearbeitung ihrer Fragmente, in ?Verzeichnisse der auf der K�nigl. Albertus-Universit�t zu K�nigsberg zu haltenden Vorlesungen?, K�nigsberg 1912-1914, pp. 70-74). His proposal of chronogical collocation was based exclusively on a terminus post quem contained in a fragment of an allegorical commentary of Il. 1, 1-56 (transmitted by the ms. Wien, �NB, phil. gr. 49, ff. 8r.-12r.). However, the attribution of this exegetical work to Demo does not find any convincing foundation and, hence, needs to be overcome (see introd. � 5.2). Although some scholars raised doubts on Ludwich?s dating in the past, nevertheless it has by now become a common habit to adopt a low chronology for Demo, which unavoidably leads to consider her like a mere compiler of prior exegetical materials. On the contrary, the considerations transmitted under Demo?s name suggest to situate her work in the Hellenistic period, perhaps in a Rhodian context, around the 1th c. BC or in the early imperial age, at most. Furthermore, the fragments do not show any sign of (more or less) mechanical compilation, but display remarkable characteristics of internal coherence and cohesion.

description: We present results on electrically driven nanobeam photonic crystal cavities formed out of a lateral p-i-n junction in gallium arsenide. Despite their small conducting dimensions, nanobeams have robust electrical properties with high current densities possible at low drive powers. Much like their two-dimensional counterparts, the nanobeam cavities exhibit bright electroluminescence at room temperature from embedded 1,250 nm InAs quantum dots. A small room temperature differential gain is observed in the cavities with minor beam self-heating suggesting that lasing is possible. These results open the door for efficient electrical control of active nanobeam cavities for diverse nanophotonic applications.
Durability performance of eco-friendly ductile cementitious composite (EDCC) as a repair material
Creators: name: Du, Yang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The objective of the experimental program in this thesis is to investigate the durability performance of Eco-friendly ductile cementitious composite (EDCC), a newly developed repair material for seismic retrofitting. Several aspects of the durability performance of EDCC were investigated in this work, in terms of restrained shrinkage resistance, freeze and thaw resistance and bond strength degradation before and after environmental exposure. All the tests focused on repair overlay and substrate composite assembly. Six different EDCC fiber mixes were involved in the testing to discover the best mix in terms of performance and economical aspects. The substrate of the composite assembly includes concrete, masonry blocks and clay blocks. EDCC can be applied on different substrates by hand casting and spraying. EDCC application on concrete substrates employing the hand casting process is used to explore the durability performance of EDCC. Clay and masonry substrates, along with the spray application process, are only used to compare the influence of different application methods on the bond strength based on the bond strength data obtained in Yuan Yan’s thesis. After the whole experimental program, regarding hand applied process, both 2% PVA and 1% PVA and 1% PET hybrid mix yields to the best durability performance. In spray process, clay substrate specimens give better bond strength than the specimens prepared through hand applied process, however, masonry specimens show lower bond strength than hand applied specimens. Overall 1% PVA and 1% PET will be recommended for future seismic retrofitting application due to lower cost compared to 2% PVA EDCC. It is noted that the performance of EDCC depends greatly on good material mixing for different application processes. In order to obtain a good EDCC mix, a rigorous mixing procedure should be followed. Hence, future in-situ applications should guarantee a proper mixing procedure for good quality control. The spray process was found to be very successful with very little rebound and nearly no material sloughing off. The results of the experiments done in this study indicated that the spray process increases the material application speed to further reduce potential high labor cost.

These form the basis for evaluating controversial experimental results (as we illustrate for TiO2-cotunnite) and enable a systematic search for novel hard materials, for instance, using global optimization algorithms (as we show on the example of SiO2 polymorphs).

description: We present a detailed theoretical analysis for a system of a superconducting flux qubit coupled to a transmission line resonator. The master equation, accounting incoherent processes for a weakly populated resonator, is analytically solved. An electromagnetic wave transmission coefficient through the system, which provides a tool for probing dressed states of the qubit, is derived. We also consider a general case for the resonator with more than one photon population and compare the results with an experiment on the qubit-resonator system in the intermediate coupling regime, when the coupling energy is comparable with the qubit relaxation rate.

description: We show in a diagrammatic and regularization independent analysis that the quadratic contribu- tion to the beta function which has been conjectured to render quantum electrodynamics asymp- totically free near the Planck scale has its origin in a surface term. Such surface term is intrinsically arbitrarily valued and it is argued to vanish in a consistent treatment of the model.

description: Überzeugungen prägen Lehrpersonen aller Berufsphasen nicht nur in ihrer Wahrnehmung und Deutung von Anforderungen, sondern auch in ihrem Handeln. Als Filter der Wahrnehmung nehmen sie eine wichtige Funktion in der Professionalisierung von Lehrpersonen ein. Lehr-lerntheoretische Überzeugungen sind individuell geprägt, lassen sich nur begrenzt verändern und wirken sich auf die Gestaltung von Unterricht aus. Inwiefern diese auch fachspezifisch geprägt sind, ist wenig erforscht. An diesem Punkt setzt der Beitrag an und untersucht anhand eines Samples von in sieben Fächern ausgebildeten angehenden Primarlehrpersonen (n=221) in der Schweiz, inwiefern sich diese in ihren allgemein und fachspezifisch erfassten lehr-lerntheoretischen Überzeugungen unterscheiden, ob sich fächergruppenspezifische Muster zeigen und inwiefern identifizierte Typen in ihren Profilen differieren. Ergebnisse zeigen, dass lehr-lerntheoretische Überzeugungen sowohl durch fachspezifische als auch durch individuelle Faktoren geprägt sind, d.h. dass eine angehende Lehrperson über fachspezifisch different geprägte individuelle lehr-lerntheoretische Überzeugungen verfügt. In fachspezifischen Kontexten identifizierte Befunde lassen sich somit nur begrenzt auf andere Fächer übertragen. Zugang zu den Volltexten der übrigen Sammelbandbeiträge hier.

Iron based magnetic nanoparticles: from synthesis to advanced applications

description: Nanoparticles have come and continue to be an extremely interesting research topic due to the
variety of applications, deriving from the possibility to opportunely tailor their properties through
different preparation methods. Among nanoparticles, magnetic nanostructures, due to their special
characteristics, represent an interesting tool for advanced applications.
Focusing our research on the synthesis and characterization of magnetic nanoparticles, we
developed materials for potential advanced applications. In the framework of my PhD research, I
devoted myself on two main potential applications: in the biomedical field for magnetic drug delivery
and in the environmental field for heavy metals capture and organic pollutant degradation.
The research has been always performed on magnetic nanosized structures, dealing with iron-based
particles since they allow to obtain, in an easy and reliable way, a product with specific and welldefined
properties.
The PhD research activity was mainly focused on the synthesis and characterization of magnetic
nanoparticles, opportunely functionalized and engineered to be applied in biomedical and
environmental fields.
The difference of the two applications required opportunely tailored materials, and thus proper
synthetic methods have been adopted.
The work will be divided into two main parts separated for the specific application where synthetic
protocols, characterizations and results are reported and extensively discussed.
In both applications, ferrite nanoparticles were opportunely synthesized and functionalized. Within
the biomedical field, the main effort was done to synthetize the optimal nanoparticles based material
to be conjugated with a fluorescent tripeptide and to evaluate the drug release activated through an
enzyme recognition and cleavage process.
Instead within environmental field, opportune functionalized nanoparticles were employed in toxic
metals capture and recovery from waters, performing static and dynamic procedures.
Experiments among photocatalysis were also performed; magnetite or ferrite nanoparticles were used
as nucleation seeds in the synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles achieving excellent efficiency in
degradation of Methylene Blue.

Methods for Optimal Microgrid Management

description: Abstract
During the last years, the number of distributed generators has grown significantly and it is expected to become higher in the future. Several new technologies are being de-veloped for this type of generation (including microturbines, photovoltaic plants, wind turbines and electrical storage systems) and have to be integrated in the electrical grid. In this framework, active loads (i.e., shiftable demands like electrical vehicles, intelligent buildings, etc.) and storage systems are crucial to make more flexible and smart the dis-tribution system. This thesis deals with the development and application of system engi-neering methods to solve real-world problems within the specific framework of microgrid control and management.
The typical kind of problems that is considered when dealing with the manage-ment and control of Microgrids is generally related to optimal scheduling of the flows of energy among the various components in the systems, within a limited area. The general objective is to schedule the energy consumptions to maximize the expected system utility under energy consumption and energy generation constraints.
Three different issues related to microgrid management will be considered in detail in this thesis:
1. The problem of Nowcasting and Forecasting of the photovoltaic power production (PV). This problem has been approached by means of several data-driven techniques.
2. The integration of stations to charge electric vehicles in the smart grids. The impact of this integration on the grid processes and on the demand satisfaction costs have been analysed. In particular, two different models have been developed for the optimal integration of microgrids with renewable sources, smart buildings, and the electrical vehicles (EVs), taking into account two different technologies. The first model is based on a discrete-time representation of the dynamics of the system, whereas the second one adopts a discrete-event representation.
3. The problem of the energy optimization for a set of interconnencted buildings. In ths connection, an architecture, structured as a two-level control scheme has been developed. More precisely, an upper decision maker solves an optimization problem to minimize its own costs and power losses, and provides references (as
3
regars the power flows) to local controllers, associated to buildings. Then, lower level (local) controllers, on the basis of a more detailed representation of each specific subsystem (the building associated to the controller), have the objective of managing local storage systems and devices in order to follow the reference values (provided by the upper level), to contain costs, and to achieve comfort requirements.
Ultra-Compact Dwarfs in the Fossil Group NGC 1132

description: Eleven Ultra-Compact Dwarf (UCD) and 39 extended star cluster candidates are found to be associated with the galaxy NGC 1132. This giant elliptical galaxy is the remnant of a fossil group. UCD and extended star cluster candidates are identified through the analysis of their structural parameters, colors, spatial distribution, and luminosity using deep Hubble Space Telescope observations in two filters: the F475W (Sloan g) and F850LP (Sloan z). The median effective radius of these UCDs is r_h=13.0 pc. Two types of UCDs are identified in the vicinity of NGC 1132, one type shares the same color and luminosity of the brightest globular clusters and traces the onset of the mass-size relation. The second kind of UCD is represented by the brightest UCD candidate, a M32-type object, with an effective radius of r_h=77.1 pc, located at ~6.6 kpc from the nucleus of NGC 1132. This UCD candidate is likely the remaining nucleus of a minor merger with the host galaxy. With the exception of a particularly blue UCD candidate, UCDs are found to extend the mass-metallicity relation found in globular clusters to higher luminosities. The results of this work support the growing body of evidence showing that UCDs are not circumscribed to galaxy clusters as previously thought. UCDs are likely to be a common occurrence in all environments. The milder tidal field of a fossil group, when compared to a galaxy cluster, allows UCDs and extended star clusters to survive up to present time at small galactocentric distances.

description: Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) is a state-of-the-art technique in designing sophisticated apparatus for various applications in science and technology. We adopted MCS based on GEANT (GEometry ANd Tracking) in order to design a simple timeof-flight positron emission tomography (TOFPET). In MCS studies, a new method of position reconstruction of positron-electron annihilation points has been developed so far. Simulation results show that this technique may not be useful for small animal imaging camera but might be practicable in diagnostic TOFPET camera. Specific issue of this simulation technique is discussed.
