Studies of the binary fluid nitrobenzene-heptane
Creators: name: Shelton, Jay Danny
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The coexistence curve and diffusion coefficient for the binary liquid system heptane-nitrobenzene have been obtained using an optical technique in which laser light is refracted through a quartz sample cell. Analysis of the resulting fringe patterns shows that the molar concentration difference ΔΧ between the coexisting liquid phases is equal to (.24±.01)x (Tc-T)•³³³±•⁰⁰⁵ over the temperature range .0001° ≤ (Tc -T) ≤ 11° C, and that the diffusion coefficient D at critical concentration is equal to (3.7±1.5)xl0⁻⁷(T-Tc ) •⁷⁰±•⁰⁵ cm²/sec over the range .005° ≤ (T-Tc ) ≤ 2.7° C. It was found that the coexistence curve is symmetric about Xc, and that the diffusion coefficient as a function of concentration at a given temperature is also symmetric about Xc, near Xc. The critical temperature Tc = 19.07±.05°C. Temperature differences near Tc were known to within .0001°C. The critical molar concentration of nitrobenzene Xc = .470±.003.

description: We construct string topology operations in twisted K-theory. We study the examples given by symplectic Grassmannians, computing the twisted K-theory of the loop spaces of quaternionic projective spaces in detail. Via the work of Freed-Hopkins-Teleman, these computations are related to completions of the Verlinde algebras of Sp(n). We compute these completions, and other relevant information about the Verlinde algebras. We also identify the completions with the twisted K-theory of the Gruher-Salvatore pro-spectra. Further comments on the field theoretic nature of these constructions are made.

The way that things are done around here: An investigation into the organisational and social structures that contribute to structural power within the Australian swim coach education pathway
Creators: name: Zehntner, C
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This investigation sought to investigate relational experiences of Australian swim coaches engaged in a formal education process that is embedded in the coach development and accreditation pathway. By utilising narrative ethnography and autoethnography, stories of experience were recounted, recorded and analysed in order to reveal the social and relational structures that influenced the (re)production of coaching practice in and through the coach education process. The impetus for this investigation stemmed from my personal experiences in the Australian Swimming coach development pathway and what I considered to be a fractured coaching self. Concerned with the significant rise in coach burnout (Altfeld, Mallett, & Kellmann, 2015), as well as the identified need for coaches to develop reflexivity (Cassidy, Jones, & Potrac, 2009; Denison & Avner, 2011), this investigation sought to extend knowledge in regard to the relational and structural elements that influenced coach practice within Swimming Australia's prescribed coach education process. The findings of this research were important for two reasons. First, there was a need to understand the effect that social conditions occurring in the educative process could have on coach practice and self. Second, previous research by McMahon, Penney, and Dinan Thompson (2012) revealed how coach practitioners utilised pedagogies that negatively affected athletes; therefore, the educative process for coaches, namely the coach development pathway warranted further investigation.

Building the red sequence through gas-rich major mergers

description: Understanding the details of how the red sequence is built is a key question in galaxy evolution. What are the relative roles of gas-rich vs. dry mergers, major vs. minor mergers or galaxy mergers vs. gas accretion? In Wild et al. 2009 we compare hydrodynamic simulations with observations to show how gas-rich major mergers result in galaxies with strong post-starburst spectral features, a population of galaxies easily identified in the real Universe using optical spectra. Using spectra from the VVDS deep survey with z~0.7, and a principal component analysis technique to provide indices with high enough SNR, we find that 40% of the mass flux onto the red-sequence could enter through a strong post-starburst phase, and thus through gas-rich major mergers. The deeper samples provided by next generation galaxy redshift surveys will allow us to observe the primary physical processes responsible for the shut-down in starformation and build-up of the red sequence.

Tissue specificity of cytosolic `K^+` retention, `Na^+` extrusion, and vacuolar `Na^+` sequestration traits in the context of differential salinity stress tolerance in barley and wheat
Creators: name: Wu, H
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Wheat and barley are ranked the second and fifth most important crops in terms of dry matter production. Both of them are classified as glycophytes, and their production is strongly affected by soil salinity. Thus, given the extent of land salinization in the world and predicted population growth to 9.3 billion by 2050, creating salt tolerant wheat and barley germplasm remains one of highest priorities for breeders. Salinity tolerance is a complex physiological trait composed of numerous sub-traits controlled by multiple regulatory pathways. Until now, most studies were focused on traits related to sodium, such as `Na^+` exclusion from uptake, control of xylem `Na^+` loading, `Na^+` retrieval from the shoot or vacuolar Na+ sequestration. However, it is not `Na^+` but the `K^+``/Na^+` ratio in the cytosol that ultimately determines plant performance under saline conditions. In recent years, `K^+` retention in root mature zone has emerged as an important component of salt tolerance mechanisms in many plant species. However, whether the importance of cell's ability to maintain `K^+` in plant overall salt tolerance can be extrapolated to other root zones or tissues (e.g. leaves) remained obscure prior to this work. Also elusive remained the essentiality of root `Na^+` exclusion and vacuolar `Na^+` sequestration in various root tissues. Furthermore, the relative contribution of each of the above salt tolerant mechanisms towards the overall salinity tolerance remained unclear, especially at the tissue specific level.

description: Confining a laser field between two high reflectivity mirrors of a high-finesse cavity can increase the probability of a given cavity photon to be scattered by an atom traversing the confined photon mode. This enhanced coupling between light and atoms is successfully employed in cavity quantum electrodynamics experiments and led to a very prolific research in quantum optics. The idea of extending such experiments to sub-wavelength sized nanomechanical systems has been recently proposed in the context of optical cavity cooling. Here we present an experiment involving a single nanorod consisting of about 10^9 atoms precisely positioned to plunge into the confined mode of a miniature high finesse Fabry-Perot cavity. We show that the optical transmission of the cavity is affected not only by the static position of the nanorod but also by its vibrational fluctuation. While an imprint of the vibration dynamics is directly detected in the optical transmission, back-action of the light field is also anticipated to quench the nanorod Brownian motion. This experiment shows the first step towards optical cavity controlled dynamics of mechanical nanostructures and opens up new perspectives for sensing and manipulation of optomechanical nanosystems.

description: Engineering of Sport 15 - Proceedings from the 15th International Conference on the Engineering of Sport (ISEA 2024)
Ball heading by young football players has been regularly restricted in response to concerns over the potential neurological impact associated with this practice. However, the differences in mechanisms between chronic traumatic encephalopathy(CTE), which may result from cumulative low-level impacts due to ball heading, and concussion, which arises from a single, higher-level impact in sports, remain incompletely understood. Additionally, there is a lack of comparative analysis of brain strain mechanisms and strain levels during heading with other head collision cases resulting in concussions in sports. Therefore, this study aims to compare brain strain during heading with concussion-level head impact cases in American football.

description: The joint likelihood of observable cluster signals reflects the astrophysical evolution of the coupled baryonic and dark matter components in massive halos, and its knowledge will enhance cosmological parameter constraints in the coming era of large, multi-wavelength cluster surveys. We present a computational study of intrinsic covariance in cluster properties using halo populations derived from Millennium Gas Simulations (MGS). The MGS are re-simulations of the original 500 Mpc/h Millennium Simulation performed with gas dynamics under two different physical treatments: shock heating driven by gravity only (GO) and a second treatment with cooling and preheating (PH). We examine relationships among structural properties and observable X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) signals for samples of thousands of halos with M_200 > 5 \times 10^{13} Msun/h and z < 2. While the X-ray scaling behavior of PH model halos at low-redshift offers a good match to local clusters, the model exhibits non-standard features testable with larger surveys, including weakly running slopes in hot gas observable--mass relations and ~10% departures from self-similar redshift evolution for 10^14 Msun/h halos at redshift z ~ 1. We find that the form of the joint likelihood of signal pairs is generally well-described by a multivariate, log-normal distribution, especially in the PH case which exhibits less halo substructure than the GO model. At fixed mass and epoch, joint deviations of signal pairs display mainly positive correlations, especially the thermal SZ effect paired with either hot gas fraction (r=0.88/0.69 for PH/GO at z=0) or X-ray temperature (r=0.62/0.83). We discuss halo mass selection by signal pairs, and find a minimum mass scatter of 4% in the \PH model by combining thermal SZ and gas fraction measurements.

Optical properties of cesium iodide in the far infrared

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The reflectivity at room temperature and the absorption coefficient at room temperature, 77°K and 12°K have been measured for CsI. These and the results of a Kramers-Kronig analysis of the reflectivity by Vergnat et al. (1969) have been compared to the calculated optical constants (complex dielectric constant and complex refractive index), reflectivity and absorption coefficient. The calculation, using the lattice dynamical data of Karo and Hardy (1963), is based on the work of Wallis and Maradudin (1962) and Cowley (1963). The cubic coupling coefficient has been evaluated for nearest neighbors with a correction due to Eldridge (1973) for long-range Coulombic forces. The predicted features in the imaginary part of the complex phase shift, gamma, are all assigned to specific two-phonon processes except for a small feature at 91 cm⁻¹. The agreement between theory and experiment is very poor at room temperature but improves significantly in all cases at low temperatures. The discrepancies between theory and experiment give evidence of the fundamental importance of third and higher-order processes in the CsI lattice and suggest that next-nearest neighbor repulsive forces need to be included in the calculation of the cubic coupling coefficient.

description: Transportation networks play a crucial role in human mobility, the exchange of goods, and the spread of invasive species. With 90% of world trade carried by sea, the global network of merchant ships provides one of the most important modes of transportation. Here we use information about the itineraries of 16,363 cargo ships during the year 2007 to construct a network of links between ports. We show that the network has several features which set it apart from other transportation networks. In particular, most ships can be classified in three categories: bulk dry carriers, container ships and oil tankers. These three categories do not only differ in the ships' physical characteristics, but also in their mobility patterns and networks. Container ships follow regularly repeating paths whereas bulk dry carriers and oil tankers move less predictably between ports. The network of all ship movements possesses a heavy-tailed distribution for the connectivity of ports and for the loads transported on the links with systematic differences between ship types. The data analyzed in this paper improve current assumptions based on gravity models of ship movements, an important step towards understanding patterns of global trade and bioinvasion.

description: Intracellular transport of large cargoes, such as organelles, vesicles or large proteins, is a complex dynamical process that involves the interplay of ATP-consuming molecular motors, cytoskeleton filaments and the viscoelastic cytoplasm. The displacements of particles or probes in the cell cytoplasm as a function of time are characterized by different (anomalous) diffusion regimes. We investigate here the motion of pigment organelles (melanosomes) driven by myosin-V motors in \emph{Xenopus laevis} melanocytes using a high spatio-temporal resolution tracking technique. By analyzing the mean square displacement (MSD) of the obtained trajectories as a function of the time lag, we show that the melanosomes display a transition between subdiffusive to superdiffusive behavior. A stochastic theoretical model is introduced to generalize the interpretation of our data. Starting from a generalized Langevin equation that explicitly considers the collective action of the molecular motors we derive an analytical expression for the MSD as a function of the time lag, which also takes into account the experimental noise. By fitting our model to the experimental data we were able to discriminate the exponents that characterize the passive and active contributions to melanosome dynamics. The model also estimates the "global" motor forces correctly. In this sense, our model gives a quantitative description of active transport in living cells with a reduced number of parameters.

Antarctic sea ice algae : primary production and carbon allocation
Creators: name: Ugalde, SC
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Sea ice is a semi-solid matrix of brine-filled channels, typically displaying strong vertical gradients in temperature, salinity, light, and space. Prolonged biological activity within the confines of the brine channels itself alters the microenvironment and physicochemistry. To be able to cope with these changes, ice algae display a complex suite of physiological and metabolic adaptations. One such adaptation is the exudation of photosynthetically-derived organic carbon. Research undertaken for the thesis details primary production and carbon allocation of ice algal communities in laboratory and field conditions, and discusses the relationships between microbial growth dynamics, responses to physicochemical change, and ecosystem dynamics. The thesis finds that sea ice algae are capable of exuding large quantities of photosynthetically-derived organic carbon. Allocation to exuded organic carbon is highest during times of adverse conditions, such as challenging biochemical and physicochemical conditions. The composition of exuded carbon varies between defined pools, including dissolved organic carbon, colloidal organic carbon, and extracellular polymeric substances. The observed magnitude of changes in carbon allocation indicates that each extracellular carbon pool imparts different ecological roles and/or benefits to the producer organism. The thesis highlights the complexity of sea ice primary productivity, subsequent carbon allocation, and the driving factors within the diverse sea ice habitat. With an increased ability to quantify direct exudation of organic carbon, the contribution of sea ice algae to total primary production and carbon flux dynamics across ice-covered seas could now be estimated.

description: We develop and significantly generalize the effective worldvolume theory for higher-dimensional black holes recently proposed by the authors. The theory, which regards the black hole as a black brane curved into a submanifold of a background spacetime -a blackfold-, can be formulated in terms of an effective fluid that lives on a dynamical worldvolume. Thus the blackfold equations split into intrinsic (fluid-dynamical) equations, and extrinsic (generalized geodesic embedding) equations. The intrinsic equations can be easily solved for equilibrium configurations, thus providing an efficient formalism for the approximate construction of novel stationary black holes. Furthermore, it is possible to study time evolution. In particular, the long-wavelength component of the Gregory-Laflamme instability of black branes is obtained as a sound-mode instability of the effective fluid. We also discuss action principles, connections to black hole thermodynamics, and other consequences and possible extensions of the approach. Finally, we outline how the fluid/AdS-gravity correspondence is related to this formalism.

description: Engineering of Sport 15 - Proceedings from the 15th International Conference on the Engineering of Sport (ISEA 2024)
Soccer is one of the most popular contact sports in the world where heading can sometimes cause concussion. Naunheim recorded linear acceleration of 16 and 20 g’s, and rotational acceleration of 1302 and 1457 rad/sec2 at 9 and 12 m/s when headed by the participants. Using a hybrid III headform, Jeffery measured linear and rotational accelerations of 54 g and 4000 rad/sec2 , respectively, from 26.8 m/s impacts. The headform was mounted to a sled allowing translation in the direction of the incoming ball. The past decade has seen a significant improvement in human finite element models, and they now include many organs of the body and brain. Application of these models to contact sport, such as heading, can improve our understanding of brain response. The following compares simulations of heading from front, side, and oblique scenarios as a function of ball pressure and speed to identify the sensitivity of these parameters to brain response in soccer.

description: This paper considers a simulation-based estimator for a general class of Markovian processes and explores some strong consistency properties of the estimator. The estimation problem is defined over a continuum of invariant distributions indexed by a vector of parameters. A key step in the method of proof is to show the uniform convergence (a.s.) of a family of sample distributions over the domain of parameters. This uniform convergence holds under mild continuity and monotonicity conditions on the dynamic process. The estimator is applied to an asset pricing model with technology adoption. A challenge for this model is to generate the observed high volatility of stock markets along with the much lower volatility of other real economic aggregates.

description: In order to optimise the costs and time of design of the new products while improving their quality, concurrent engineering is based on the digital model of these products. However, in order to be able to avoid definitively physical model without loss of information, new tools must be available. Especially, a tool making it possible to check simply and quickly the maintainability of complex mechanical sets using the numerical model is necessary. Since one decade, the MCM team of IRCCyN works on the creation of tools for the generation and the analysis of trajectories of virtual mannequins. The simulation of human tasks can be carried out either by robot-like simulation or by simulation by motion capture. This paper presents some results on the both two methods. The first method is based on a multi-agent system and on a digital mock-up technology, to assess an efficient path planner for a manikin or a robot for access and visibility task taking into account ergonomic constraints or joint limits. The human operator is integrated in the process optimisation to contribute to a global perception of the environment. This operator cooperates, in real-time, with several automatic local elementary agents. In the second method, we worked with the CEA and EADS/CCR to solve the constraints related to the evolution of human virtual in its environment on the basis of data resulting from motion capture system. An approach using of the virtual guides was developed to allow to the user the realization of precise trajectory in absence of force feedback.
Fluxatron and sonic anemometer measurements of the momentum flux at a height of 4 metres in the atmospheric boundary layer
Creators: name: McDonald, John William
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: At the International Comparison of Turbulence Measuring Instruments, 1970, velocity components and momentum flux measurements were compared using propeller-type Fluxatrons (Hicks, 1970) and sonic anemometers from Kaijo-Denki, Japan and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, U.S.S.R. There were distinct differences found in the measurements of the vertical velocity from the propeller sensors. The propeller's momentum flux measurements computed from its velocity components were also different. The U¹ propeller was found to be linear for lower frequencies with an associated distance constant of about 7 metre. Measurement of the variance of U¹ for f < 0.16 hz. showed the U¹ propeller in excess of both sonics by 20%. However, with the propeller's high frequency loss beyond f = 0.2 hz. the discrepancy was reduced to only an 8% excess for .00055 hz. < f < 10.8 hz. The W¹ propeller response was non-linear and had an upper cut-off frequency of 1hz. Because of its non-linear response and stalling characteristics at low wind speeds and also its high frequency cut-off the W¹ propeller was observed to measure only about 50% of the total fluctuating W¹ energy available. Analysis of the sonic cospectra of momentum showed that significant contributions to the momentum flux were to be found in the frequency domain 0.001 hz. < f < 5.0 hz. The combined response effects of the propeller were enough to reduce the Fluxatron’s estimate of this momentum flux by 32.5%.

description: We report on the first measurement of the differential cross section of $ϕ$-meson photoproduction for the $d(γ,pK^{+}K^{-})n$ exclusive reaction channel. The experiment was performed using a \textcolor{black}{tagged-photon} beam and the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. A combined analysis using data from the $d(γ,pK^{+}K^{-})n$ channel and those from a previous publication on coherent $ϕ$ production on the deuteron has been carried out to extract the $ϕ-N$ total cross section, $σ_{ϕN}$. The extracted $ϕ-N$ total cross section favors a value above 20 mb. This value is larger than the value extracted using vector-meson dominance models for $ϕ$ photoproduction on the proton.

description: Dark matter charged under a new gauge sector, as motivated by recent data, suggests a rich GeV-scale "dark sector" weakly coupled to the Standard Model by gauge kinetic mixing. The new gauge bosons can decay to Standard Model leptons, but this mode is suppressed if decays into lighter dark sector particles are kinematically allowed. These particles in turn typically have macroscopic decay lifetimes that are constrained by two classes of experiments, which we discuss. Lifetimes of 10 cm < c tau < 10^8 cm are constrained by existing terrestrial beam-dump experiments. If, in addition, dark matter captured in the Sun (or Earth) annihilates into these particles, lifetimes up to 10^15 cm are constrained by solar observations. These bounds span fourteen orders of magnitude in lifetime, but they are not exhaustive. Accordingly, we identify promising new directions for experiments including searches for displaced di-muons in B-factories, studies at high-energy and -intensity proton beam dumps, precision gamma-ray and electronic measurements of the Sun, and milli-charge searches re-analyzed in this new context.

The essential oil of Acradenia franklinii
Creators: name: Pitman, ME
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The C.S.I.R.O. isolated two crystalline compounds from the leaves of Acradenia franklinii, a shrub endemic to Tasmania. These two compounds, designated A & B, were investigated by Dr. A. A. Komzak of the University of Tasmania, and he showed that compound B was identical with Methyl allo evodional, which occurs naturally in Queensland tree Evodia elleryana which grows in the region round Mackay. Komzak also isolated a small amount of a third crystalline compound, C, and made some preliminary investigation on it. The work undertaken this year was an attempt to find further information about the nature of compound A, and also compound C. The chief difficulty in this work was the isolation of the two compounds, more particularly A, in sufficient quantities. This thesis is divided into five sections. Section I deals with the the general properties and extraction of the essential oil of Acradenia franklinii. Section II deals with the isolation of compounds A and C from the essential oil of Acradenia franklinii. Section III contains a summary of the know information on compound A and an account of the oxidation of compound A. Section lV contains an account of the structure of compound C. Section V deals with the erection of a high efficiency fractionating column.

description: The board of directors is expected to ensure that management has identified and developed processes to mitigate risks facing the organization, including risks arising from data theft and the loss of information. Unfortunately, recent experience suggests that companies are not doing a sufficient job of securing this data. In this Closer Look, we examine they types of cyberattacks that occur and how companies respond to them. We ask: What steps can the board take to prevent, monitor, and mitigate data theft? What data, metrics, and information should board members review to satisfy themselves that management has taken proper steps to minimize cyber risks? What qualifications should a board member have in order to constructively contribute to boardroom discussions on cybersecurity? How difficult is it to find board candidates with these skills?
A Vision-based Computed Torque Control for Parallel Kinematic Machines

description: In this paper, a novel approach for parallel kinematic machine control relying on a fast exteroceptive measure is implemented and validated on the Orthoglide robot. This approach begins with rewriting the robot models as a function of the only end-effector pose. It is shown that such an operation reduces the model complexity. Then, this approach uses a classical Cartesian space computed torque control with a fast exteroceptive measure, reducing the control schemes complexity. Simulation results are given to show the expected performance improvements and experiments prove the practical feasibility of the approach.

description: Spatially periodic complex-valued solutions of the Burgers and KdV-Burgers equations are studied in this paper. It is shown that for any sufficiently large time T, there exists an explicit initial data such that its corresponding solution of the Burgers equation blows up at T. In addition, the global convergence and regularity of series solutions is established for initial data satisfying mild conditions.

data analysis

description: This interface control document defines the interaction protocols and conventions for the Das2 data handling system. Das2, and it's predecessor Das1, were developed at the University of Iowa to ease retrieval and use of space physics research data for Professor Don Gurnett's staff and collaborators. Data from the Voyager, Galileo, Cassini, and Juno spacecraft are routinely accessed and processed via Das2 servers. In 2012 Professor Craig Kletzing's staff also began using a Das2 server in support of the Van Allen Probes mission. As more programs and missions come to rely on the system the time has come to document the interfaces by which all Das2 developers may cooperate. https://das2.org
A Flavor Protection for Warped Higgsless Models

description: We examine various possibilities for realistic 5D higgsless models and construct a full quark sector featuring next-to-minimal flavor violation (with an exact bulk SU(2) protecting the first two generations) satisfying electroweak and flavor constraints. The "new custodially protected representation" is used for the third generation to protect the light quarks from flavor violations induced due to the heavy top. A combination of flavor symmetries, and RS-GIM for the right-handed quarks suppresses flavor-changing neutral currents below experimental bounds, assuming CKM-type mixing on the UV brane. In addition to the usual higgsless RS signals, this model predicts an exotic charge-5/3 quark with mass of about 0.5 TeV which should show up at the LHC very quickly, as well as nonzero flavor-changing neutral currents which could be detected in the next generation of flavor experiments. In the course of our analysis, we also find quantitative estimates for the errors of the fermion zero mode approximation, which are significant for higgsless-type models.
