Examining the Effectiveness of a 4D Schedule and a Virtual Reality Model on a Modular Project: UNLV Solar Decathlon Case
Creators: name: Ghimire, Rajarshi
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2019

description:  The use of a 4D schedule as technological advancement has brought significant improvement to the planning and execution of construction projects, through visualizing stepwise construction progress, following a sequence of pre-planned activities, and finalizing a baseline schedule with necessary changes. Moreover, the application of virtual reality (VR) to create interactive 3D models of a planned structure has made it possible to make a detailed planning of any construction project. Because of these benefits, the use of 4D schedules and VR in the construction industry has increased drastically, leading to improved planning and execution. However, past studies have given little attention to the applications of such technologies on modular projects. Therefore, this study attempts to analyze the benefits and effectiveness of combining and utilizing a 4D schedule along with VR on modular projects. This study is based on an actual modular house that is currently being executed, in 2019, at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, for the Solar Decathlon 2020 competition.
 In this study, a 4D schedule was developed by combining a developed 3D model with a project schedule. Additionally, the 4D model in Revit was converted to VR using the Revit plugin - EnscapeTM. This study used VR model visualization followed by a questionnaire survey that included 31 participants (students). The survey questionnaires were used to compare the effectiveness of the developed 4D schedule and VR model with a 2D drawing and project schedule. The survey was divided into two parts: the first part required participants to schedule the assembly sequence of the models with the help of a 2D drawing and project schedule once, and then again with the 4D schedule and VR; the second part contained comparisons of a 2D drawing and project schedule with a 4D schedule and VR on six different topics. Results showed that in all six topics, participants agreed that a 4D schedule and VR were more effective than a 2D drawing and project schedule; however, from the open-ended questions provided to the participants at the end, it was noted that for a first-time user, 4D scheduling and VR are difficult to use. Additionally, responses on ten direct comparison topics further showed the benefits of the 4D schedule and VR. Further, the survey results show that the use of a 4D schedule and VR, with proper training, is more effective in the construction planning and execution of modular projects. These findings suggest that the implementation of 4D and VR technologies would enhance the fabrication and assembly of modules in the modular construction industry. Thus, this study encouraged the practitioners and educators in the modular construction industry to use a 4D schedule and VR, based on its success with students.

description: If SUSY provides a solution to the hierarchy problem then supersymmetric states should not be too heavy. This requirement is quantified by a fine tuning measure that provides a quantitative test of SUSY as a solution to the hierarchy problem. The measure is useful in correlating the impact of the various experimental measurements relevant to the search for supersymmetry and also in identifying the most sensitive measurements for testing SUSY. In this paper we apply the measure to the CMSSM, computing it to two-loop order and taking account of current experimental limits and the constraint on dark matter abundance. Using this we determine the present limits on the CMSSM parameter space and identify the measurements at the LHC that are most significant in covering the remaining parameter space. Without imposing the LEP Higgs mass bound we show that the smallest fine tuning (1:13) consistent with a relic density within the WMAP bound corresponds to a Higgs mass of 114$\pm$2 GeV. Fine tuning rises rapidly for heavier Higgs.

description: The vulnerability to real-life networks against small initial attacks has been one of outstanding challenges in the study of interrelated networks. We study cascading failures in two interrelated networks S and B composed from dependency chains and connectivity links respectively. This work proposes a realistic model for cascading failures based on the redistribution of traffic flow. We study the Barabási-Albert networks (BA) and Erd's-Rényi graphs (ER) with such structure, and found that the efficiency sharply decreases with increasing percentages of the dependency nodes for removing a node randomly. Furthermore, we study the robustness of interrelated traffic networks, especially the subway and bus network in Beijing. By analyzing different attacking strategies, we uncover that the efficiency of the city traffic system has a non-equilibrium phase transition at low capacity of the networks. This explains why the pressure of the traffic overload is relaxed by singly increasing the number of small buses during rush hours. We also found that the increment of some buses may release traffic jam caused by removing a node of the bus network randomly if the damage is limited. However, the efficiencies to transfer people flow will sharper increase when the capacity of the subway network αS > α0.
Resplendent: an investigation into the synthesis of body and clothing as sculptural form.
Creators: name: Briant, I
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The project explored the synthesis of the human body and its dress within the practice of sculpture. It is based on the premise that a dressed person is visualised and comprehended as one coherent image, rather than as two separate components of body and clothing. The creative interplay between these elements accounts for the vitality and ongoing sensual and intellectual stimulation inherent in the body/dress partnership. The project was inspired by the conviction that forms and structural processes of clothing can be paralleled in sculpture. The conceptual background to the project has been expanded through investigations into several related areas. The idea that dress significantly extends the body image was explored through the concept of metonymical association. A person's self image is conditioned by conventions of pictorial representation of the clothed body. These depictions, traditionally found in painting and more recently in film and advertising, emphasise the frontal aspects of dress. Consideration of the phenomena of mirror reflections and shadows reinforce this two-dimensional pictorial concept. A further field of enquiry focused on the extent to which materials and forms ofThe part of the project concerned with investigations into sculptural construction, focused primarily on shifts between dimensions. The contrasting of two and three-dimensional elements within the one work, or the gradual transformation of one dimension into another, were developmental strategies which resulted in a diverse range of forms. These included fully three-dimensional, free-standing structures and works suspended from the ceiling or attached to the wall. Throughout the project, experimentation with materials and simple processes were essential for the development and consolidation of ideas. Of major importance was the use of rich, tactile fabrics as a potent means of evoking a sense of both body and clothing. The project has drawn inspiration from artists noted for their original configurations of two and three-dimensional forms and for their innovative use of materials and techniques. These include Eva Hesse, Robert Rauschenberg and Caroline Broadhead. Japanese dress designer, Issey Miyake, through his inventive approach to clothing construction, was a driving force throughout the project. The sculptural work of Judith Shea, clearly evoking both body and clothing, provided a context for comparison and assessment. The outcomes of the project are demonstrated through the sculpture selected for the thesis exhibition. All images focus on the combination of perceptions of the visual impact of the clothed body with juxtapositions between two and three-dimensional forms. clothing engender feelings of sensuality and eroticism.

description:  Vaccination is considered one of the most successful public health achievements of the 20th century. However, with increasing vaccine skepticism emerging over the past decades, there is a threat to the ongoing sustainment of vaccine coverage within all US communities. This study evaluated and compared parents sociodemographic factors associated with childhood vaccine decisions. This study is a secondary analysis of 893 parents/guardians, age 18-55 years with child(ren) < 7 years living in the U.S.
 Predictive analysis was conducted using multinomial logistic regression modeling was used to examine vaccine decisions (accept, hesitant, and refuse) in relation to parents sociodemographic factors. Overall, (66.6%) of parents accepted recommended vaccines, while (23.6%) hesitated, and (9.7%) refused the recommended childhood vaccines. Males were more likely than females to refuse rather than accept vaccines (OR= 1.88, 95% CI 1.03-3.43). Parents with low income were more likely to refuse compared to middle-income parents (OR= 2.40, 95% CI 1.32-4.37). However, parents with high income were less likely to refuse vaccine when compared to parents with middle income (OR= 0.59, 95% CI 0.28-1.24).
 To reduce the proportion of vaccine-hesitant parents and improve coverage, interventions should be tailored to specific groups of parents to identify potential barriers, address those barriers by implementing target specific interventions and programs, and monitor them to evaluate the effectiveness of these programs.

Disparities in Administrative Pediatric Asthma Prevalence in Clark County
Creators: name: Goodie, Aaliyah
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2019

description:  Objective: Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases affecting young children nationally and globally. Asthma affects more than 25 million people in the nation, of which 6
 million are children. Lifetime asthma prevalence for children in Nevada is 11.5% (CDC, 2016). This is likely an underestimate due to a large undocumented Hispanic population. In Clark County School District (CCSD) during the 2016-2017 school year, 20,235 students (8%) listed asthma in school records as a health concern. Asthma burden varies by sociodemographic group with highest rates documented among Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, and pediatric populations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offers a National Asthma Control Plan that provides statewide recommendations, yet Nevada is not included due to federal funding limitations for the inclusion of new states. There have been few studies in the state of Nevada that specifically address asthma prevalence and the impact of the condition on school achievement measures in Clark County. The literature is conflicting regarding the disease impact on school GPA and other standardized school test measures. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of self or proxy reported health status on school absenteeism and GPA measures among Clark County School District (CCSD) students enrolled during the 2016-2017 academic school year. Methods: Administrative and health record data were acquired from Clark County School District for the 2016-2017 school year. The relationship between health status, school achievement measures, and absenteeism in Clark County will be assessed using linear models. Results: Significant relationships between health status and gender, grade level, and race/ethnicity were found (p

description: Hybrid E. coli pathotypes are representing emerging public health threats with enhanced virulence from different pathotypes. Hybrids of Shiga toxin-producing and enterotoxigenic E. coli (STEC/ETEC) have been reported to be associated with diarrheal disease and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in humans. Here, we identified and characterized four clinical STEC/ETEC hybrids from diarrheal patients with or without fever or abdominal pain and healthy contact in Sweden. Rare stx2 subtypes were present in STEC/ETEC hybrids. Stx2 production was detectable in stx2a and stx2e containing strains. Different copies of ETEC virulence marker, sta gene, were found in two hybrids. Three sta subtypes, namely, sta1, sta4 and sta5 were designated, with sta4 being predominant. The hybrids represented diverse and rare serotypes (O15:H16, O187:H28, O100:H30, and O136:H12). Genome-wide phylogeny revealed that these hybrids exhibited close relatedness with certain ETEC, STEC/ETEC hybrid and commensal E. coli strains, implying the potential acquisition of Stx-phages or/and ETEC virulence genes in the emergence of STEC/ETEC hybrids. Given the emergence and public health significance of hybrid pathotypes, a broader range of virulence markers should be considered in the E. coli pathotypes diagnostics, and targeted follow up of cases is suggested to better understand the hybrid infection.

description: RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription involves initiation from a promoter, transcriptional elongation through the gene, and termination in the terminator region. In bacteria, terminators often contain specific DNA elements provoking polymerase dissociation, but RNAPII transcription termination is thought to be driven entirely by protein co-factors. We used biochemical reconstitution, single-molecule studies, and genome-wide analysis in yeast to study RNAPII termination. Transcription into natural terminators by pure RNAPII results in spontaneous termination at specific sequences containing T-tracts. Single-molecule analysis indicates that termination involves pausing without backtracking. The "torpedo" Rat1-Rai1 exonuclease (XRN2 in humans) greatly stimulates spontaneous termination but is ineffectual on other paused RNAPIIs. By contrast, elongation factor Spt4-Spt5 (DSIF) suppresses termination. Genome-wide analysis further indicates that termination occurs by transcript cleavage at the poly(A) site exposing a new 5' RNA-end that allows Rat1-Rai1 loading, which then catches up with destabilized RNAPII at specific termination sites to end transcription.

On the synthesis of two-element-kind multiport networks
Creators: name: Stein, Richard Adolph
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Procedures for the synthesis of a class of two-element-kind multiport networks are developed and illustrated by examples. In the RC case, the networks consist of the series connection of an R network and an RC network. The latter contains at least one capacitor tree so that its open-circuit impedance matrix vanishes at infinite frequency. It is shown that for a network within the class, the open-circuit impedance matrix and the normal form state model are equivalent in that, given one, the other can be written immediately. The synthesis problem then takes the form of the determination of a normal coordinate transformation such that the transformed state variables may be identified as capacitor voltage variables in a passive RC network. Two procedures are described for determining a transformation (modal) matrix which yields an irreducible realization of a given kxk, nͭʰ degree impedance matrix. There are ½(n-k) (n-k-l) degrees of freedom in the modal matrix. General analytical solutions are possible when n≤k+2, one greater than in existing methods. The main procedure yields a network with, in general, n + ½k(k+1) capacitors. A set of necessary conditions, easily applied to the given impedance matrix, is derived. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the special case k=2, n=3- An alternative procedure yields a network with n capacitors. Using either procedure, it is possible to simultaneously minimize both the number of elements and the total capacitance in the network. By introducing additional equations into the main procedure, numerical solutions for the modal matrix may be determined for any value of n. With k=2, the procedure yields a new class of minimal, grounded two-port networks consisting of one π-section and n-2 T-sections connected in parallel. The severity of the realizability conditions is approximately proportional to n. A given 2x2 impedance matrix may be realized exactly, or one driving-point impedance function may be realized, exactly and the transfer impedance function with a desired gain factor (within the limits of realizability). A computational procedure is given which minimizes the total capacitance and optimizes the voltage gain factor.

description: Phase change materials such as pseudobinary GeTe-Sb2Te3 (GST) alloys are an essential part of existing and emerging technologies. Here, we investigate the electrical and optical properties of epitaxial phase change materials: α-GeTe, Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST225), and Sb2Te3. Temperature-dependent Hall measurements reveal a reduction of the hole concentration with increasing temperature in Sb2Te3 that is attributed to lattice expansion, resulting in a non-linear increase of the resistivity that is also observed in GST225. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy at room temperature demonstrates the presence of electronic states within the energy gap for α-GeTe and GST225. We conclude that these electronic states are due to vacancy clusters inside these two materials. The obtained results shed new light on the fundamental properties of phase change materials such as the high dielectric constant and persistent photoconductivity and have the potential to be included in device simulations.

description: This paper discusses the development and engineering of electrical spectroscopy for simultaneous and non invasive measurement of electrical resistivity and dielectric permittivity. A suitable quadrupolar probe is able to perform measurements on a subsurface with inaccuracies below a fixed limit (10%) in a bandwidth of low (LF) frequency (100kHz). The quadrupole probe should be connected to an appropriate analogical digital converter (ADC) which samples in phase and quadrature (IQ) or in uniform mode. If the quadrupole is characterized by a galvanic contact with the surface, the inaccuracies in the measurement of resistivity and permittivity, due to the IQ or uniform sampling ADC, are analytically expressed. A large number of numerical simulations proves that the performances of the probe depend on the selected sampler and that the IQ is better compared to the uniform mode under the same operating conditions, i.e. bit resolution and medium.

description: An important issue in the study of the iron-arsenic based superconductors is the symmetry of the superconducting gap, a problem complicated by multiple gaps on different Fermi surface sheets. Electronic Raman scattering is a flexible bulk probe which allows one in principle to determine gap magnitudes and test for gap nodes in different regions of the Brillouin zone by employing different photon polarization states. Here we calculate the clean Raman intensity for $A_{1g}$, $B_{1g}$ and $B_{2g}$ polarizations, and discuss the peak structures and low-energy power laws which might be expected for several popular models of the superconducting gap in these systems.

description: The classical Björling problem is to find the minimal surface containing a given real analytic curve with tangent planes prescribed along the curve. We consider the generalization of this problem to non-minimal constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces, and show that it can be solved via the loop group formulation for such surfaces. The main result gives a way to compute the holomorphic potential for the solution directly from the Björling data, using only elementary differentiation, integration and holomorphic extensions of real analytic functions. Combined with an Iwasawa decomposition of the loop group, this gives the solution, in analogue to Schwarz's formula for the minimal case. Some preliminary examples of applications to the construction of CMC surfaces with special properties are given.

Unintended Protection Factor: Fallout Shelters and their Influence on the Public Perception of Nuclear Weapon Tests

description: While we presently look upon fallout shelters with a sense of morbid curiosity or complete disregard, their influence has outlasted their occupants. After the closure of World War II in 1945, the initial foundations and experience of civil defense in the United States was rapidly expanded upon in 1949 with the creation of the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization, OCDM, as the military and atomic technology race between the Soviet Union and the United States showcased the risks of a nuclear exchange on the American heartland. One of the earliest and most controversial programs established by the OCDM was the fallout shelter program. The program’s efforts, and the shelters themselves, would become a focal point of public animosity towards the federal government. A growing extent of this anger was focused on the above ground nuclear weapon tests the United States was conducting until their outlawing with the Partial Test Ban Treaty in 1963. While there has been considerable research into the failures of civil defense and the critical response from the American public towards the department, little has been done to link fallout shelters to impacts and influences on national security. The focus of my research is understanding how the relationship between public knowledge and the fallout shelter program contributed to the questioning of national security policy and how the United States government attempted to maintain national security interests as the public perception of nuclear weapon tests shifted away from the federal policy. I argue that through federally provided information, seminars, and design competitions for fallout shelters, the American public became acutely aware of the effects of nuclear weapon tests, such as radioactive fallout, and sought to protect themselves against long-lasting damage. Overall contributing to the American public becoming increasingly skeptical of United States policy and questioning the legitimacy of its actions. This reaction highlights the importance of how federally funded programs can create public reactions that run counter to national security concerns and influence greater social discourse.

Inflation with racetrack superpotential and matter field

description: Several models of inflation with the racetrack superpotential for the volume modulus coupled to a matter field are investigated. In particular, it is shown that two classes of racetrack inflation models, saddle point and inflection point ones, can be constructed in a fully supersymmetric framework with the matter field F-term as a source of supersymmetry breaking and uplifting. Two models of F-term supersymmetry breaking are considered: the Polonyi model and the quantum corrected O'Raifeartaigh model. In the former case, both classes of racetrack inflation models differ significantly from the corresponding models with non-supersymmetric uplifting. The main difference is a quite strong dominance of the inflaton by the matter field. In addition, fine-tuning of the parameters is relaxed as compared to the original racetrack models. In the case of the racetrack inflation models coupled to the O'Raifeartaigh model, the matter field is approximately decoupled from the inflationary dynamics. In all of the above models the gravitino mass is larger than the Hubble scale during inflation. The possibility of having the gravitino much lighter than the Hubble scale is also investigated. It is very hard to construct models with light gravitino in which the volume modulus dominates inflation. On the other hand, models in which the inflationary dynamics is dominated by the matter field are relatively simple and seem to be more natural.

The practices of local governance : a Tasmanian case study
Creators: name: Armstrong, D
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: In this thesis I examine how local government and community actors are managing change in local governing processes. I describe how governing is practised and document the effects of such practices for the rural township of Geeveston in the Huon Valley Council, Tasmania, Australia. The aim of the research is to apprehend the materiality of governing at the local level under neoliberal governmental regimes in order to comprehend what happens and what is at stake when people govern and are governed in particular ways .This project is underpinned by an interest in everyday practices and the particular experiences of individuals in communities of place and interest and grounded in a case study of township revitalisation. The implementation of neoliberal governmental technologies has changed profoundly governing practices at all levels of government. The term governance is being used as a general reference for these changing conditions of governing. Of concern here are the effects of those changes on local government that occurred in Tasmania, Australia during the 1990s. This period of local government modernisation emphasised managerial and structural changes designed to increase local government efficiency and effectiveness and were accompanied by legislative requirements to enhance citizen participation in local government processes. Determining how to integrate these twin goals has generated significant challenges for local government and community actors as they negotiate what it means to govern and be governed in the new governance environment. The design for the research is based on a case study approach and draws on qualitative research methods. It assumes great value in working from the particularities of people's experiences; a position central to the practice of cultural geography. The theoretical framework draws on concepts of government developed in literature on governmentality; a perspective that highlights the regimes of practices of government used in attempts to shape rationally human conduct for particular ends. In its detailed examination of the practices of government, this project addresses a gap identified in the literature calling for more empirical research to explicate theorizations of governmental practices. This research builds knowledge about local governance with attention to its constitution through the discursive and material practices of identity, community, representation, citizenship and politics in place. The work links the empirical findings of this research with concepts of the representative claim, agonistic pluralism and governing through community to problematise, respectively, meanings and practices of representation, the role of conflict in democracy and practices of community empowerment.

description: We extend our recent work and study implications of the Standard Model with four generations (SM4) for rare B and K decays. We again take seriously the several 2-3 $σ$ anomalies seen in B, $B_s$ decays and interpret them in the context of this simple extension of the SM. SM4 is also of course of considerable interest for its potential relevance to dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking and to baryogenesis. Using experimental information from processes such as $B \to X_s γ$, $B_d$ and $B_s$ mixings, indirect CP-violation from $K_L \to ππ$ etc along with oblique corrections, we constrain the relevant parameter space of the SM4, and find $m_{t'}$ of about 400-600 GeV with a mixing angle $| V_{t'b}^*V_{t's}|$ in the range of about (0.05 to 1.4)$\times 10^{-2}$ and with an appreciable CP-odd associated phase, are favored by the current data. Given the unique role of the CP asymmetry in $B_s \to ψϕ$ due to its gold-plated nature, correlation of that with many other interesting observables, including the semileptonic asymmetry ($A_{SL}$) are studied in SM4. We also identify several processes, such as $B \to X_s ν\barν$, $K_L \to π^0 ν\bar ν$ etc, that are significantly different in SM4 from the SM. Experimentally the very distinctive process $B_s\to μ^+μ^-$ is also discussed; the branching ratio can be larger or smaller than in SM, $(3.2 \to 4.2)\times 10^{-9}$, by a factor of ${\cal{O}}(3)$.
