Growth and the Triangle: Exploring Future Development Patterns
Creators: name: Hodges-Copple, John
name: Hitchings, Benjamin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1998

description: Few demographers would ever confuse the Research Triangle with the Bermuda Triangle. While people tend to disappear in the Bermuda Triangle, an average of 74 new residents arrive each day in the Research Triangle Region. 600,000 more are expected over the next 25 years. To spark a substantive discussion of how the Triangle might grow over the next generation, a regional leadership organization called the Greater Triangle Regional Council launched the Regional Development Choices Project in 1996. This initiative outlines three ways the region could grow and describes the implications of each alternative for life in the region. In the process, the project takes on several classic planning challenges, including: engaging a large public audience; helping them make the connection between regional development patterns and the quality of life in their individual neighborhoods; enabling them to envision alternative futures; and involving them in a meaningful way in shaping the development of their region. The first step in this process for the Greater Triangle Regional Council was to co-host a World Class Region conference with the Triangle J Council of Governments (TJCOG) in April of 1998.

description: Functional connectomes capture brain interactions via synchronized fluctuations in the functional magnetic resonance imaging signal. If measured during rest, they map the intrinsic functional architecture of the brain. With task-driven experiments they represent integration mechanisms between specialized brain areas. Analyzing their variability across subjects and conditions can reveal markers of brain pathologies and mechanisms underlying cognition. Methods of estimating functional connectomes from the imaging signal have undergone rapid developments and the literature is full of diverse strategies for comparing them. This review aims to clarify links across functional-connectivity methods as well as to expose different steps to perform a group study of functional connectomes.
Coastal Area Management Act: Regional Planning for the State's Coastal Area
Creators: name: Cooper, Arthur

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1975

description: "In recent years the coastal area has been subjected to increasing pressures which are a result of the often conflicting needs of a society expanding in industrial development, in population, and in the recreational aspirations of its citizens. Unless these pressures are controlled by coordinated management, the very features of the coast which make it economically, esthetically, and ecologically rich will be destroyed. The General Assembly therefore finds that an immediate and pressing need exists to establish a comprehensive plan for the protection, preservation, orderly development, and management of the coastal area of North Carolina." COASTAL AREA MANAGEMENT ACT OF 1974 Legislative Findings and Goals Born of necessity and molded in perseverence, the Coastal Area Management Act of 1974 is perhaps the most comprehensive piece of environmental legislation ever forged by the North Carolina General Assembly. After several years of study and deliberation outside the legislative corridors, the concepts of regional land use planning and resource management for the coast were introduced during the 1973 session of the General Assembly. Unsuccessful in that year of political transition, the bill was redrafted and reintroduced on the second day of the following session; it was ratified, after a series of dramatic twists and turns, on the day prior to adjournment.
New Cosmological Model and Its Implications on Observational Data Interpretation

description: The paradigm of ΛCDM cosmology works impressively well and with the concept of inflation it explains the universe after the time of decoupling. However there are still a few concerns; after much effort there is no detection of dark matter and there are significant problems in the theoretical description of dark energy. We will consider a variant of the cosmological spherical shell model, within FRW formalism and will compare it with the standard ΛCDM model. We will show that our new topological model satisfies cosmological principles and is consistent with all observable data, but that it may require new interpretation for some data. Considered will be constraints imposed on the model, as for instance the range for the size and allowed thickness of the shell, by the supernovae luminosity distance and CMB data. In this model propagation of the light is confined along the shell, which has as a consequence that observed CMB originated from one point or a limited space region. It allows to interpret the uniformity of the CMB without inflation scenario. In addition this removes any constraints on the uniformity of the universe at the early stage and opens a possibility that the universe was not uniform and that creation of galaxies and large structures is due to the inhomogeneities that originated in the Big Bang.

We numerically analyze the time-resolved three-dimensional expansion of a wave-packet in a bended cigar shaped potential with a focusing Kerr-like interaction term and Gaussian disorder. We report on a self-consistent analytical theory in which randomness, nonlinearity and geometry are determined by a single scaling parameter, and show that curvature enhances localization.

description: Over the past 25 years, the planning profession has become aware of a troubling lack of diversity in its membership, leadership, and professional development process. Efforts to increase racial, cultural, and economic diversity within the planning profession span a 25-year period, with a deeper commitment by the American Planning Association (APA) especially evident since the late 1990s. Written by one of the leaders in the diversity-in-planning movement, this article discusses these efforts and provides a series of recommendations made by the APA Diversity Taskforce in 2005 to increase diversity in the planning profession.

The PCAR spectra are analyzed within the two-band 3D version of the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk model for Andreev reflection we recently developed, and that makes use of an analytical expression for the Fermi surface that mimics the one calculated within the density-functional theory (DFT). The spectra in Ca(Fe_{0.94}Co_{0.06})2As2 unambiguously demonstrate the presence of nodes or zeros in the small gap. In Ba(Fe_{0.92}Co_{0.08})2As2, the ab-plane spectra in single crystals can be fitted by assuming two nodeless gaps, but this model fails to fit the c-axis ones in epitaxial films. All these results are discussed in comparison with recent theoretical predictions about the occurrence of accidental 3D nodes and the presence of "hot spots" in the gaps of 122 compounds.

Regularized rank-based estimation of high-dimensional nonparanormal graphical models
Creators: name: Xue, Lingzhou
name: Zou, Hui
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: A sparse precision matrix can be directly translated into a sparse Gaussian graphical model under the assumption that the data follow a joint normal distribution. This neat property makes high-dimensional precision matrix estimation very appealing in many applications. However, in practice we often face nonnormal data, and variable transformation is often used to achieve normality. In this paper we consider the nonparanormal model that assumes that the variables follow a joint normal distribution after a set of unknown monotone transformations. The nonparanormal model is much more flexible than the normal model while retaining the good interpretability of the latter in that each zero entry in the sparse precision matrix of the nonparanormal model corresponds to a pair of conditionally independent variables. In this paper we show that the nonparanormal graphical model can be efficiently estimated by using a rank-based estimation scheme which does not require estimating these unknown transformation functions. In particular, we study the rank-based graphical lasso, the rank-based neighborhood Dantzig selector and the rank-based CLIME. We establish their theoretical properties in the setting where the dimension is nearly exponentially large relative to the sample size. It is shown that the proposed rank-based estimators work as well as their oracle counterparts defined with the oracle data. Furthermore, the theory motivates us to consider the adaptive version of the rank-based neighborhood Dantzig selector and the rank-based CLIME that are shown to enjoy graphical model selection consistency without assuming the irrepresentable condition for the oracle and rank-based graphical lasso. Simulated and real data are used to demonstrate the finite performance of the rank-based estimators.

description: We study the effects of a non singular gravitational potential on satellite orbits by deriving the corresponding time rates of change of its orbital elements. This is achieved by expanding the non singular potential into power series up to second order. This series contains three terms, the first being the Newtonian potential and the other two, (first order term)and (second order term), express deviations of the singular potential from the Newtonian. These deviations from the Newtonian potential are taken as disturbing potential terms in the Lagrange planetary equations that provide the time rates of change of the orbital elements of a satellite in a non singular gravitational field. We split these effects into secular, low and high frequency components and we evaluate them numerically using the low Earth orbiting mission Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE). We show that the secular effect of the second order disturbing term on the perigee and the mean anomaly are, 4.307 10^-9/a and -2.533 10^-15/a respectively. These effects, are far too small and most likely cannot easily be observed with todays technology. Numerical evaluation of the low and high frequency effects of the disturbing term on low Earth orbiters like GRACE are very small and undetectable by current observational means.

description: Background and Aims: The mechanisms of liver injury in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are poorly understood. Indirect evidence suggests that oxidative stress and mitochondrial injury play a role. The aim of this study was to determine if the HCV core protein itself alters mitochondrial function and contributes to oxidative stress. Methods: HCV core protein was expressed in 3 different cell lines, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation products were measured. Results: Core expression uniformly increased ROS. In 2 inducible expression systems, core protein also increased lipid peroxidation products and induced antioxidant gene expression as well. A mitochondrial electron transport inhibitor prevented the core-induced increase in ROS. A fraction of the expressed core protein localized to the mitochondria and was associated with redistribution of cytochrome c from mitochondrial to cytosolic fractions. Sensitivity to oxidative stress was also seen in HCV transgenic mice in which increased intrahepatic lipid peroxidation products occurred in response to carbon tetrachloride. Conclusions: Oxidative injury occurs as a direct result of HCV core protein expression both in vitro and in vivo and may involve a direct effect of core protein on mitochondria. These results provide new insight into the pathogenesis of hepatitis C and provide an experimental rationale for investigation of antioxidant therapy.
Properties of Infrared Transparent Optical Ceramics via Density Functional Theory

Subjects: Aerospace materials
Modelling and simulation

description: Ceramics with novel optical properties have enabled substantial advances in technologies ranging from medical imaging to fish finding. Further development of optically transparent ceramics will allow the creation of novel devices with new capabilities, capable of functioning in previously inconceivable operating conditions. Hypersonic aerospace applications often utilize IR imaging for guiding and target identification. Sensors utilized in the detection and measurement of IR radiation cannot withstand the extreme environments intrinsic to hypersonic travel and thus must be protected from the surrounding environment while minimizing distortion of incident IR radiation. Towards this end, IR transparent ceramics have been developed that can withstand the extreme environments of hypersonic travel, while maintaining their optical and mechanical properties. The binary II-VI semiconductor Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) has been primarily utilized for this application due to its strong transmission of 8-10 μ𝑚 IR radiation in combination with the stability of its mechanical properties at elevated temperatures encountered at high airspeeds. While it has proven to be a capable material for the application, previous testing has found it to degrade and fail catastrophically when exposed to sand or water at subsonic speeds. This initiated a search for materials with similar IR transmittance properties to ZnS but with higher strength and resistance to degradation. The diamond allotrope of carbon has been found to have the most optimal mechanical properties for this application, but due to obvious limitations from cost and processing in bulk, it is not considered a realistic option for the application. The ternary sulfide Calcium Lanthanum Sulfide (CLS, CaLa2S4) was discovered in the early 1980s, with an extended IR transmission window of 8-12 μ𝑚 in contrast to the 8-10 μ𝑚 transmission window of ZnS. In combination with more favorable mechanical properties than ZnS, CaLa2S4 has become a promising candidate towards the manufacture of stronger IR windows for aerospace applications. To expand the existing body of knowledge on this ternary sulfide and towards the advancement of IR window materials, this work seeks to utilize density functional theory to characterize defects in CLS to guide future investigations of this material system.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Supernova remnants (SNRs) are strong thermal emitters of infrared radiation. The most prominent lines in the near-infrared spectra of SNRs are [Fe II] lines. The [Fe II] lines are from shocked dense atomic gases, so they trace SNRs in dense environments. After briefly reviewing the physics of the [Fe II] emission in SNR shocks, I describe the observational results which show that there are two groups of SNRs bright in [Fe II] emission: middle-aged SNRs interacting with molecular clouds and young core-collapse SNRs in dense circumstellar medium. The SNRs belonging to the former group are also bright in near-infrared H$_2$ emission, indicating that both atomic and molecular shocks are pervasive in these SNRs. The SNRs belonging to the latter group have relatively small radii in general, implying that most of them are likely the remnants of SN IIL/b or SN IIn that had strong mass loss before the explosion. I also comment on the "[Fe II]-H$_2$ reversal" in SNRs and on using the [Fe II]-line luminosity as an indicator of the supernova (SN) rate in galaxies. In the mid- and far-infrared regimes, thermal dust emission is dominant. The dust in SNRs can be heated either by collisions with gas species in a hot plasma or by radiation from a shock front. I discuss the characteristics of the infrared morphology of the SNRs interacting with molecular clouds and their dust heating processes. Finally, I give a brief summary of the detection of SN dust and crystalline silicate dust in SNRs.

description: The BBW method remains one of most demanded tool to derive full set of Cepheid astrophysical parameters. Surface brightness version of the BBW technique was preferentially used during last decades to calculate Cepheid radii and to improve PLC relations. Its implementation requires a priory knowledge of Cepheid reddening value. We propose a new version of the Baade--Becker--Wesselink technique, which allows one to independently determine the colour excess and the intrinsic colour of a radially pulsating star, in addition to its radius, luminosity, and distance. It is considered to be a generalization of the Balona light curve modelling approach. The method also allows the function F(CI_0) = BC + 10 log Teff for the class of pulsating stars considered to be calibrated. We apply this technique to a number of classical Cepheids with very accurate light and radial-velocity curves. The new technique can also be applied to other pulsating variables, e.g. RR Lyraes. We discuss also possible dependence of the projection factor on the pulsation phase.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: In the past few decades, economic growth in Chapel Hill has fueled the demand for housing in the town and put increasing development pressure on many of the town’s traditional neighborhoods. Northside, a historically African-American neighborhood near downtown Chapel Hill, began experiencing these development pressures in the 1990s as new construction in the neighborhood began increasing rapidly. In response to these pressures, Northside residents worked together with town officials to establish a Neighborhood Conservation overlay district to constrain development in ways that would preserve the character of this long-standing neighborhood. This article describes the specific development pressures facing Northside, the collaborative strategy used to develop this Neighborhood Conservation District, and the benefits reaped by the community following its implementation.

description: Let M be an oriented compact 3-manifold and let T be a (loose) triangulation of M, with ideal vertices at the components of the boundary of M and possibly internal vertices. We show that any spin structure s on M can be encoded by extra combinatorial structures on T. We then analyze how to change these extra structures on T, and T itself, without changing s, thereby getting a combinatorial realization, in the usual "objects/moves" sense, of the set of all pairs (M,s). Our moves have a local nature, except one, that has a global flavour but is explicitly described anyway. We also provide an alternative approach where the global move is replaced by simultaneous local ones.

description: Purpose: Interprofessional collaboration in schools is fundamental to the success of all students. The purpose of this exploratory study is to examine the impact of an innovative one-credit-hour undergraduate course on students’ knowledge of the Interprofessional Education Collaborative’s (IPEC) core competencies for interprofessional practice. Method: Nine undergraduate students from communication sciences and disorders, inclusive early childhood education, and elementary education majors participated in two focus groups (one at the beginning and one at the end of the course). The researchers used a directed content analysis approach to analyze the data in terms of frequency and depth of the students’ descriptions of the IPEC core competencies. Results: Two main findings emerged: (a) participants discussed the roles and responsibilities for collaborative practice (RR) and interprofessional teamwork and team-based practice (TT) competencies more frequently at the end of the course, and (b) participants discussed the RR, TT, and interprofessional communication practices competencies in a greater level of depth at the end of the course. Conclusions: These results suggest that a one-credit-hour course has the potential to enhance undergraduate students’ knowledge of the IPEC core competencies in relation to school-based collaboration. Additional learning experiences for undergraduate students could include observations of co-teaching in schools, practicum experiences in which students have the opportunity to engage in co-teaching, and additional coursework on collaboration and teamwork.

description: Calcium sulfate is an important construction material. More than 1600 million square meters of interior surfaces are covered with plasterboards in Europe each year. Plasterboard is manufactured by transforming mined or recycled gypsum (CaSO4 × 2 H2O) to bassanite (CaSO4 × ½H2O) in a time- and energy-consuming heating process. A fast and sustainable way to produce bassanite by solvent-assisted milling, thereby eliminating the need for energy-intensive dehydration, is described. The milling reaction is complete after ≈200 min. Kinetic studies revealed that gypsum crystals transform to bassanite by shear forces during milling. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic techniques and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) show that the resulting bassanite nanocrystals are stabilized by surface functionalization with the auxiliary solvent methanol. Bassanite particles produced over extended milling times of 990 min form long-term stable dispersions without stabilizers and no signs of precipitation. Addition of water to bassanite leads to instant agglomeration, followed by a phase change to gypsum. The dispersibility in volatile methanol and the elucidation of the crystallization mechanism allow also for applications of the bassanite nanocrystals in hybrid materials. © 2022 The Authors.

description: Gravitational waves provide a window to probe general relativity (GR) under extreme conditions. The recent observations of GW190412 and GW190814 are unique high-mass-ratio mergers that enable the observation of gravitational-wave harmonics beyond the dominant (ℓ,m)=(2,2) mode. Using these events, we search for physics beyond GR by allowing the source parameters measured from the subdominant harmonics to deviate from that of the dominant mode. All results are consistent with GR. We constrain the chirp mass as measured by the (ℓ,m)=(3,3) mode to be within 0-3+5% of the dominant mode when we allow both the masses and spins of the subdominant modes to deviate. If we allow only the mass parameters to deviate, we constrain the chirp mass of the (3,3) mode to be within ±1% of the expected value from GR. © 2020 authors.

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Gapped phases with long-range entanglement may admit gapped boundaries. If the boundary is gapped, the ground-state degeneracy is well-defined and can be computed using methods of Topological Quantum Field Theory. We derive a general formula for the ground-state degeneracy for abelian Fractional Quantum Hall phases, including the cases when connected components of the boundary are subdivided into an arbitrary number of segments, with a different boundary condition on each segment, and in the presence of an arbitrary number of boundary domain walls.

title: Fake People Kissing: Queerbaiting and Fan Agency
Creators: name: Hardikar, Maja
Publisher: name: Georgetown University. Communication, Culture & Technology Graduate Program

description: In the early 2010s, the term “queerbaiting” emerged in fan communities to describe the phenomenon of films and TV shows including intentionally homoerotic moments in order to ensnare a queer audience, but without the intention of ever following through and confirming the characters to be in any way “canonically” queer. In recent years, the term has spread from fandom to academia as a way of criticizing the state of queer representation in pop culture. While “queerbaiting” is almost always seen as an action on the part of producers that harms fans, I argue that these accusations of queerbaiting create more interesting, dynamic relationships between creators and audiences. In this paper, I will be exploring the fan reaction to queerbaiting, and how it allows fans to be more empowered in their readings of the text, creates a more active and engaged fanbase, and allows fans to hold the creators accountable for their promises.

description: My artistic practice as a Cree and Osage Two Spirit woman is rooted in an investigation of materials with cultural significance to my Indigenous tribes. Working with these materials across my practice allows me to create painting and sculptural works that combine traditional and contemporary Indigenous art. In this thesis support document, I situate my research and practice within Indigenous art history, which has thrived despite the constant threat from colonial powers, and alongside Indigenous theorists and artists that opened up the way for me. Across my practice, I aim to explore Decolonization and the Reclamation of Indigenous sovereignty and traditions. I hope my work can contribute to other Indigenous artists and people on Turtle Island (The Americas), so that we can one day gain freedom from the shackles of colonialism.

description: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the life-long source of all types of blood cells. Their function is controlled by their direct microenvironment, the HSC niche in the bone marrow. Although the importance of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the niche by orchestrating niche architecture and cellular function is widely acknowledged, it is still underexplored. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the ECM in HSC niches. For this purpose, we first briefly outline HSC niche biology and then review the role of the different classes of ECM molecules in the niche one by one and how they are perceived by cells. Matrix remodeling and the emerging importance of biophysics in HSC niche function are discussed. Finally, the application of the current knowledge of ECM in the niche in form of artificial HSC niches for HSC expansion or targeted differentiation as well as drug testing is reviewed. © 2021 The Author(s)

description: The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) in its manifold variants is widely discussed in scientific literature. We investigate related optimization models and solution methods to determine the state of research for vehicle routing attributes and their combinations. Most of these approaches are idealized and focus on single problem-tailored routing applications. Addressing this research gap, we present a customizable VRP for optimized road transportation embedded into a Decision Support System (DSS). It integrates various model attributes and handles a multitude of real-world routing problems. In the context of urban logistics, practitioners of different industries and researchers are assisted in efficient route planning that allows for minimizing driving distances and reducing vehicle emissions. Based on the design science research methodology, we evaluate the DSS with computational benchmarks and real-world simulations. Results indicate that our developed DSS can compete with problem-tailored algorithms. With our solution-oriented DSS as final artifact, we contribute to an enhanced economic and environmental sustainability in urban logistic applications.
Blood pressure tracking in urban black South African children: birth to twenty cohort
Creators: name: Adair, Linda
Publisher: name: BioMed Central

description: Abstract Background Hypertension is an emerging public health problem in South Africa. Recent evidence from longitudinal studies has shown that hypertension in adulthood can be traced back to childhood. There is scarcity of longitudinal data on paediatric blood pressure (BP) particularly in African populations. The objective of this study is to assess the prevalence of hypertension and evaluate BP tracking between childhood and late adolescence among South African black Children. Methods This study utilized data from the Birth to Twenty cohort, which is comprised of children born in Soweto, Johannesburg in 1990 (N = 3273, 78.5 % black). Data on BP and anthropometry were collected at six follow-up periods between ages 5 and 18 years. Blood pressure status was classified using the Fourth report on National High Blood pressure program in children and adolescents. Pearson correlation coefficients and relative risk ratios (RR) were used to describe tracking of BP between childhood and late adolescence. Results The overall point prevalence ranged from 9.2 to 16.4 % for prehypertension and 8.4 to 24.4 % for hypertension. Tracking coefficients ranged from 0.20 to 0.57 for SBP and 0.17- 0.51 for DBP in both sexes over the 14 years of measurement. The proportion of children who maintained an elevated BP status between childhood, adolescence and age 18 years ranged from 36.1 % at age 5 years to 56.3 % at age 13 years. Risk of having elevated BP at 18 years ranged from; RR: 1.60 (95 % CI: 1.29–2.00) at 5 years to RR: 2.71 (95 % CI: 2.32–3.17) at 14 years of age. Conclusions This study reports high prevalence of elevated BP which tracks from early childhood into late adolescence. These findings emphasize the importance of early identification of children at risk of developing elevated BP and related risk factors plus timely intervention to prevent hypertension in adulthood.
