description: Hyporeactivity to vasopressors leading to multiple organ failure is a serious clinical implication in sepsis. Though the regulatory role of purinoceptors in inflammation is reported, their involvement in sepsis-induced vasoplegia is still unknown. Thus we investigated the effect of sepsis on vascular AT1 and P2Y6 receptors. Polymicrobial sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture in mice. Vascular reactivity was assessed by organ bath study and aortic mRNA expression of AT1 and P2Y6 was quantified by qRT-PCR. Both angiotensin-II and UDP produced higher contractions in the absence of endothelium as well as following inhibition of nitric oxide synthase. Angiotensin-II mediated aortic contraction was antagonized by losartan (AT1 antagonist), but not by PD123319 (AT2 antagonist) whereas UDP-induced aortic contraction was significantly inhibited by MRS2578 (P2Y6 antagonist). In addition, MRS2578 significantly inhibited the contractile response of Ang-II. Compared to SO mice, angiotensin-II and UDP-induced maximum contraction were found to be significantly attenuated in sepsis. Accordingly, aortic mRNA expression of AT1a receptors was significantly down-regulated while that of P2Y6 receptors was significantly increased in sepsis. 1400 W (a selective iNOS inhibitor) significantly reversed angiotensin-II-induced vascular hyporeactivity in sepsis without affecting UDP-induced hypo-reactivity. Sepsis-induced vascular hyporeactivity to angiotensin-II is mediated by enhanced expression of iNOS. Moreover, AT1R-P2Y6 cross talk/heterodimerization could be a novel target for regulating vascular dysfunction in sepsis.
Coupled Thermo-Hydro-Bio-Mechanical Model for Holistic Performance Assessment of Municipal Landfills

description: Currently, the design, construction, and operation of engineered landfills to effectively contain the municipal solid waste (MSW) and its byproducts from contaminating the environment is well-established. However, the relatively dry conditions with the waste in the conventional landfills presents unfavorable conditions for rapid microbial decomposition of waste to occur. Bioreactor landfills, which involve recirculation of landfill leachate/other liquids through leachate recirculation systems (LRS), have emerged as a promising option to accelerate waste decomposition rates and achieve early waste stabilization with numerous other benefits (e.g. high biogas generation and settlement rates, reduced leachate treatment and disposal costs, reduced long-term landfill monitoring costs). However, there is no rational approach to design safe and effectively operating bioreactor landfills due to a lack of adequate understanding about the influence of coupled interactions between the fundamental landfill processes under rapid waste decomposition conditions on the short-term and long-term performance of bioreactor landfills (e.g. moisture distribution, landfill settlement, evolution and distribution of temperatures, landfill gas generation rates and volumes). This research presents a comprehensive coupled thermo-hydro-bio-mechanical (CTHBM) model to fundamentally characterize and mathematically simulate the coupled interactions between the hydraulic, mechanical, biochemical, and thermal processes observed in MSW landfills. After successful validation with simulated long-term laboratory experiments on representative field-waste samples, the proposed CTHBM model was applied to a typical full-scale landfill cell configuration to assess the holistic short-term and long-term performance of the landfill cell under simulated conventional and bioreactor landfill conditions. A parametric study was also conducted to assess the effects of different LRS variables on the long-term performance of bioreactor landfills, and aid in developing design recommendations for effective operation of bioreactor landfills. Finally, a probabilistic analysis using Monte Carlo simulations approach was performed by considering spatial variability in the hydraulic, mechanical, biochemical, and thermal properties of waste to assess the influence of waste heterogeneity on the reliability of the predicted long-term performance of bioreactor landfills in comparison to a deterministic analysis.

description: This study examines an intrinsic penalized smoothing method on the 2-sphere. We propose a method based on the spherical Bézier curves obtained using a generalized de Casteljau algorithm to provide a degree-based regularity constraint to the spherical smoothing problem. A smooth Bézier curve is found by minimizing the least squares criterion under the regularization constraint. The de Casteljau algorithm constructs higher-order Bézier curves in a recursive manner using linear Bézier curves. We introduce a local penalization scheme based on a penalty function that regularizes the velocity differences in consecutive linear Bézier curves. The imposed penalty induces sparsity on the control points so that the proposed method determines the number of control points, or equivalently the order of the Bézier curve, in a data-adaptive way. An efficient Riemannian block coordinate descent algorithm is devised to implement the proposed method. Numerical studies based on real and simulated data are provided to illustrate the performance and properties of the proposed method. The results show that the penalized Bézier curve adapts well to local data trends without compromising overall smoothness.

description: Anthropogenic activities that concentrate wildlife near airports increases the risk of wildlife–aircraft collisions. Placing waste management facilities, natural areas, golf courses, and other landscape features near airports have the potential to attract wildlife hazardous to aviation. We conducted a 3-year study (March 2013–February 2016) to determine if the implementation of a Wildlife Hazard Mitigation Program (WHMP) would influence the bird use of a waste transfer station located near LaGuardia Airport, New York City, New York, USA. We conducted wildlife surveys during 3 phases: (1) no mitigation program and no waste transfer station, (2) active mitigation and no waste transfer station, and (3) active mitigation and operating waste transfer station. Overall, bird abundance decreased when the WHMP was implemented, thereby reducing the risk of wildlife strikes with aircraft operating in association with LaGuardia Airport. The active mitigation program reduced the presence of birds associated with the waste transfer station as well as many species using the adjacent marine environment.

description: Progress in single particle cryo-EM, most recently due to the introduction of direct detector devices, has made the high-resolution structure determination of biological assemblies smaller than 500kDa more routine, but has also increased attention on the need for tools to demonstrate the validity of single particle maps. Although map validation is a continuing subject of research, some consensus has been reached on procedures that reduce model bias and over-fitting during map refinement as well as specific tests that demonstrate map validity. Tilt-pair analysis may be used as a method for demonstrating the consistency at low resolution of a map with image data. For higher-resolution maps, new procedures for more robust resolution assessment and for validating the refinement of atomic coordinate models into single particle maps have been developed.

description: In order to understand the interactions between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and star formation during the evolution of galaxies, we investigate 142 galaxies detected in both X-ray and 70μm observations in the COSMOS (Cosmic Evolution Survey) field. All of our data are obtained from the archive, X-ray point source catalogs from Chandra and XMM-Newton observations; far-infrared 70μm point source catalog from Spitzer-MIPS observations. Although the IRAC [3.6μm]-[4.5μm] vs. [5.8μm]-[8.0μm] colours of our sample indicate that only ~63% of our sources would be classified as AGN, the ratio of the rest-frame 2-10 keV luminosity to the total infrared luminosity (8-1000μm) shows that all of the sample has comparatively higher X-ray luminosity than that expected from pure star-forming galaxies, suggesting the presence of an AGN in all of our sources. From the analysis of the X-ray hardness ratio, we find that sources with both 70μm and X-ray detection tend to have a higher hardness ratio relative to the whole X-ray selected source population, suggesting the presence of more X-ray absorption in the 70μm detected sources. In addition, we find that the observed far-infrared colours of 70μm detected sources with and without X-ray emission are similar, suggesting the far-infrared emission could be mainly powered by star formation.

description: We develop an all-integrated optoelectromechanical system that operates in the superhigh frequency band. This system is based on an ultrahigh-Q slotted photonic crystal (PhC) nanocavity formed by two PhC membranes, one of which is patterned with electrode and capacitively driven. The strong simultaneous electromechanical and optomechanical interactions yield efficient electrical excitation and sensitive optical transduction of the bulk acoustic modes of the PhC membrane. These modes are identified up to a frequency of 4.20 GHz, with their mechanical Q factors ranging from 240 to 1,730. Directly linking signals in microwave and optical domains, such optoelectromechanical systems will find applications in microwave photonics in addition to those that utilize the electromechanical and optomechanical interactions separately.

Characterization of Dust on Solar Devices in Southern Nevada
Creators: name: Sylva, Jason
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Dust can impact the efficiency of solar energy collection devices, and in some arid environments, dust can reduce solar energy efficiency up to 30%. Reducing the impact of dust is therefore critical in the expansion of solar technology throughout regions where solar energy is utilized. Characterization of suspended and settled particulate matter can assist in developing strategies for dust mitigation. With the characterization of suspended and settled particulate in remote, rural, and urban environments, more informed decisions can be made regarding the selection of coating material on solar panels as well as developing cleaning and maintenance procedures. Particulate matter that deposits on a solar surface can potentially interact with solar radiation, precipitation, or even directly with the surface material itself. These interactions could lead to the formation of coatings that reduce/block radiation and/or degrade the integrity of the surface. When you extrapolate these possibilities to a larger scale preliminary characterization of dust will play a vital role when planning the construction of a solar energy facility.
A variety of sampling techniques were employed to obtain particulate matter for characterization. These included direct collection of particulates from solar surfaces: via vacuum and wipe sample collection on panels, tacky dot adhesive slides and plain slides that were exposed at different intervals, desert vugs that are natural particulate collectors, as well as high volume air sampling for collection of suspended particulates. High volume air sampling was performed using glass fiber filters and 2 micron stainless steel screens. Direct collection of settled particulates was performed by sampling from solar surfaces, vugs, and by collection on exposed glass surfaces. Collection onto glass surfaces was achieved by setting up a plain microscope slide, tacky dot slides, and panes of glass. The sampling ethodology allowed for the collection of samples for analyses using various analytical methods that included Raman microspectroscopy, pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry, ion  chromatography and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. These various methods allow for identification of organic and inorganic components as well the mineral distribution of suspended and settled particulate material.

description: The current K-band (24 GHz) celestial reference frame (CRF) consists of 1038 relatively uniformly distributed sources—comparable to the number of regularly observed S/X sources—constructed from just more than 2 million observations (of which 99.5% are from VLBA sessions supported through the USNO’s 50% timeshare allocation), a much smaller number compared to the 17.6 million observations used to realise the frame at the lower frequencies. For sources overlapping with the S/X-band frame, the median precision of the K-band CRF is 47 μas in right ascension, comparable to the 46 μas of the S/X-band frame, while the median precision in declination is 80 μas for K-band and 58 μas for S/X-band. Looking to the future, the K-band CRF collaboration is developing a roadmap to continually improve the quality of our observations. In order to improve the accuracy of the K-band CRF we are pursuing: (1) improved sensitivity through higher data rates (4 to 8 Gbps) and larger apertures (e.g. the addition of the 40m Yebes telescope in Spain and 50m LMT in Mexico); (2) improved analysis e.g. improved ionospheric calibrations, elevation-dependant weighting, and source structure corrections) and (3) improved geometry by extending our network e.g. the recently started collaborations with Yebes, Spain and the Korean VLBI Network which are expected to improve declination accuracy. We will present the details of such improvements and an estimate of the impact of each improvement.

Neural Processes Underlying Auditory Context Effects
Creators: name: Yerkes, Breanne
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Auditory information within our natural environments is disorganized and often ambiguous, leaving our auditory systems with a complex task: organizing sound into coherent objects. The auditory system uses both current and prior information to assist in completing this task. The influences of previous context on current perception have been referred to as context effects. A contrastive context effect results in a current perception that is opposite of what is expected based on the physical stimulus properties presented during an immediate context. A facilitative context effect results in a current perception that is the same as the perception during the immediate context. These two context effects were used in the current study to investigate (1) whether they are present during a concurrent sound segregation task (2) whether they arise from the same or different neural processes. Participants completed a concurrent sound segregation task while electrical brain activity was being recorded using electroencephalography (EEG). During the concurrent sound segregation task, participants were presented with sounds and indicated whether they perceived one or two auditory objects, revealing how simultaneous sounds are organized. Behaviorally, results indicated a strong presence of the facilitative effect; however, no contrastive effect was present. Electrophysiologically, results showed no significant contrastive effect and due to an inadequate amount of trials, the facilitative effect was not able to be analyzed. The stimulus parameters used in the current study elicited a strong facilitative effect but no contrastive effect, highlighting a fundamental difference. The specific stimulus parameters used and the resulting outcomes indicate the facilitative effect is more persistent and less susceptible to interference than the contrastive effect.

Sex Worker and Proud: A Phenomenological Study of Consensual Sex Workers' Lives
Creators: name: Curtis Jr., Michael Gerald
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Ten consensual sex workers who were currently working in Nevada were qualitatively interviewed in an effort to explore their perceptions of the adult industry. Interviews specifically focused on their experience disclosing their profession to others and the potential effects that it has on their personal relationships, and access to effective treatment. The Moustakas method of phenomenological inquiry was used to analyze data from ten participants who self-identified as direct sex workers.  Seven essential themes emerged from this analysis: (1) the adult industry provides professional and personal agency, (2) the industry is often transient, (3) disclosure is an impactful and ongoing process, (4) professional and personal lives often are compartmentalized, (5) Sex work can be an isolating, (6) therapy often involves factors that do not involve their work, (7) Sex work can provide an opportunity for self-exploration. Participants rejected the absolute victim narrative that is commonly reflected in media, film, and government-sanctioned actions surrounding the adult industry (Nielsen, 2009). The results of this study emphasize the need for future research on the relationships of people in the adult industry and provides couple and family therapies with a critical understanding of how authenticity, genuineness, and judgment can impact clinical treatment when working with this population.

description: We demonstrate tunable on-chip single photon sources using the Stark tuning of single quantum dot (QD) excitonic transitions in short photonic crystal waveguides (PhC WGs). The emission of single QDs can be tuned in real-time by 9 nm with an applied bias voltage less than 2V. Due to a reshaped density of optical modes in the PhC WG, a large coupling efficiency β>65% to the waveguide mode is maintained across a wavelength range of 5 nm. When the QD is resonant with the Fabry-Perot mode of the PhC WG, a strong enhancement of spontaneous emission is observed leading to a maximum coupling efficiency β=88%. These results represent an important step towards the scalable integration of single photon sources in quantum photonic integrated circuits.

description: We show in this paper that the correspondence between $2$-term representations up to homotopy and $\mathcal{VB}$-algebroids, established by Gracia-Saz and Mehta, holds also at the level of morphisms. This correspondence is hence an equivalence of categories. As an application, we study foliations and distributions on a Lie algebroid, that are compatible both with the linear structure and the Lie algebroid structure. In particular, we show how infinitesimal ideal systems in a Lie algebroid $A$ are related with subrepresentations of the adjoint representation of $A$.

description: Although electron spins in III-V semiconductor quantum dots have shown great promise as qubits, a major challenge is the unavoidable hyperfine decoherence in these materials. In group IV semiconductors, the dominant nuclear species are spinless, allowing for qubit coherence times that have been extended up to seconds in diamond and silicon. Carbon nanotubes are a particularly attractive host material, because the spin-orbit interaction with the valley degree of freedom allows for electrical manipulation of the qubit. In this work, we realise such a qubit in a nanotube double quantum dot. The qubit is encoded in two valley-spin states, with coherent manipulation via electrically driven spin resonance (EDSR) mediated by a bend in the nanotube. Readout is performed by measuring the current in Pauli blockade. Arbitrary qubit rotations are demonstrated, and the coherence time is measured via Hahn echo. Although the measured decoherence time is only 65 ns in our current device, this work offers the possibility of creating a qubit for which hyperfine interaction can be virtually eliminated.

The sequential rejection principle of familywise error control

description: Closed testing and partitioning are recognized as fundamental principles of familywise error control. In this paper, we argue that sequential rejection can be considered equally fundamental as a general principle of multiple testing. We present a general sequentially rejective multiple testing procedure and show that many well-known familywise error controlling methods can be constructed as special cases of this procedure, among which are the procedures of Holm, Shaffer and Hochberg, parallel and serial gatekeeping procedures, modern procedures for multiple testing in graphs, resampling-based multiple testing procedures and even the closed testing and partitioning procedures themselves. We also give a general proof that sequentially rejective multiple testing procedures strongly control the familywise error if they fulfill simple criteria of monotonicity of the critical values and a limited form of weak familywise error control in each single step. The sequential rejection principle gives a novel theoretical perspective on many well-known multiple testing procedures, emphasizing the sequential aspect. Its main practical usefulness is for the development of multiple testing procedures for null hypotheses, possibly logically related, that are structured in a graph. We illustrate this by presenting a uniform improvement of a recently published procedure.

description: In this paper we construct a discrete simulation of an expanding homogeneous and isotropic space-time that expands via expansion of its basic elements to figure out properties and characteristics of such a space-time and derive conclusions. We prove that in such an expanding space-time, the geodesics are curved and more precisely, they fluctuate on the boundaries of the expanding basic elements. The non existence of privileged expansion direction leads to the existence of an infinity of fluctuating geodesics between any two locations in this space-time, that provides a prediction of polarization in geometric optics, and a prediction of an earlier acceleration of the expansion as for the cosmic inflation model. This simulation is a case study and an example of space-time with variable topology using the principle of variation of topology via a transformation that creates holes.

CAST: Design of the Algorithmic Framework for Actor-Based Cloud Simulation
Creators: name: Baragiola, Amedeo
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In this thesis we start from the Actor-Based architecture originally proposed for CAST and we expand it by integrating high-level functionalities such as the Global Clock, Consistency and Replication algorithms, Election Algorithms and Partitioning and Failure modeling. We provide an algorithmic framework for integrating such functionalities, fundamental to all cloud simulators, with an Actor-Based system while building upon CASTDSL, an easy to use declarative language for simulation engineers, to provide intuitive access to the introduced high-level features even with limited programming experience or knowledge of the underlying architecture.

description: In this paper, we extend the theory of simultaneous Diophantine approximation to infinite dimensions. Moreover, we discuss Dirichlet-type theorems in a very general framework and define what it means for such a theorem to be optimal. We show that optimality is implied by but does not imply the existence of badly approximable points.

description: We have used energy filtered x-ray photoelectron emission microscopy (XPEEM) and synchrotron radiation to measure the grain orientation dependence of the work function of a sintered niobium doped strontium titanate ceramic. A significant spread in work function values is found. Grain orientation and surface reducing/oxidizing conditions are the main factors in determining the work function. Energy filtered XPEEM looks ideally suited for analysis of other technologically interesting polycrystalline samples.

Super- and Sub-critical Regions in Shocks driven by Radio-Loud and Radio-Quiet CMEs

description: White-light coronagraphic images of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) observed by SOHO/LASCO C2 have been used to estimate the density jump along the whole front of two CME-driven shocks. The two events are different in that the first one was a "radio-loud" fast CME, while the second one was a "radio quiet" slow CME. From the compression ratios inferred along the shock fronts, we estimated the Alfvén Mach numbers for the general case of an oblique shock. It turns out that the "radio-loud" CME shock is initially super-critical around the shock center, while later on the whole shock becomes sub-critical. On the contrary, the shock associated with the "radio-quiet" CME is sub-critical at all times. This suggests that CME-driven shocks could be efficient particle accelerators at the shock nose only at the initiation phases of the event, if and when the shock is super-critical, while at later times they lose their energy and the capability to accelerate high energetic particles.

description: A vortex lock-in transition was directly detected by torque magnetometry in an overdoped YBa2Cu3O7 single crystal of low anisotropy (\approx 7). The locked-in state was observed below the 3D to 2D crossover temperature Tcr = 76 K, independently of extrinsic pinning effects thanks to a high quality clean crystal and the use of a vortex shaking technique. The shape of the torque signal as a function of the angle between the applied magnetic field and the crystallographic c-axis is in very good agreement with the model developped by Feinberg and Ettouhami [Int. J. Mod. Phys. B 7, 2085 (1993)] for quasi-2D superconductors, despite the low anisotropy of the material.

Design and Implementation of a Synchronously Updated 3-D Source for Retinal Electrodiagnostic Testing
Creators: name: Bentivoglio, Laura
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The electroretinogram (ERG) is a diagnostic test that measures the evoked potentials in the retina in response to a light stimulus. The presence of various pathologies can be diagnosed through the study of an ERG recording since anomalies in amplitude and timing of the measured evoked potential waveform appear. The present work foresees the design and implementation of a 3D stimulation source for electroretinographic applications to allow an early diagnosis of retinal diseases by involving the entire visual field under test, including the peripheral regions of the retina, where alterations and the first signs of glaucoma occur. The highly configurable device would be capable of executing the various protocols used in the clinic, e.g flash ERG, pattern ERG, multifocal ERG, thus enclosing the different capabilities of the stimulators present on the market today in a single device. The mechanical design optimizations, the software and the hardware developed will be discussed. The cutting of materials and a partial assembly of the device have been performed, and, finally, the fulfillment of ISCEV standards for ERG testing in terms of luminance uniformity of the device LED-based stimulation presented to the retina will be addressed.
