An econometric analysis of natural resource management and development in Saudi Arabia using a general equilibrium model
Creators: name: Alshahrani, Saad Ali
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2009
Subjects: Natural resources -- Saudi Arabia -- Management

description: Saudi Arabia has experienced rapid growth in population, coupled with a rise in the standard of living and acceleration in social, agricultural and industrial growth, which has greatly increased the demand for water supplies. The Saudi government has embarked on an ambitious plan to make the country self-sufficient in food production. This goal was based upon using oil revenues to subsidize agriculture. This dissertation examines the viability of this approach and evaluates how a balance between two non-renewable resources, oil and water, can be achieved to attain food security. The approach taken in this research is both positive and normative, which serves to illustrate how oil has been made a social instrument, besides being an economic one, to sustain the supply and pricing of water resources in Saudi Arabia. The forecasting and general equilibrium analysis indicates that valuable water resources can be conserved by reducing the subsidies.

description: We have studied five seasons of OGLE-III data for eight SMC Be/X-ray pulsars for which no other survey data were available. We have determined orbital periods for four of these binary systems, one of which also shows nonradial pulsations. Optical identification of SMC X-2 is reconsidered, but no periods were found for either of the two possible candidates.
Complex averages of particle quantities and equations of balance
Creators: name: Kouznetsov, Andrei
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2074
Subjects: Models, Theoretical

description: We study a new complex continuum quantity Q[tau][eta](t; x, z) and its applications for efficient particle system simulation. Function Q[eta](t; x, z) is constructed using both velocities and positions of particles. It carries more information than the standard quantities density, linear momentum, and kinetic energy, and, therefore, it can give better results in various applications. The standard quantities can be derived from Q[tau][eta](t; x, z). The proposed quantity and its derivatives are bounded independently of the number of particles, and can be used for numerical modeling. Several 1D particle systems are studied using Q[tau][eta](t; x, z), and an approximate closure is presented based on the examples. Research of Q[tau][eta](t; x, z) can be continued on a 2D example presented in the last chapter. The model in the example describes a so called bistable material. Bistable material is represented by a two-dimensional triangular lattice made of bistable rods. Each rod has two equilibrium lengths, and thus its energy has two equal minima. A rod undergoes a phase transition when its elongation exceeds a critical value. The lattice is subject to a homogeneous strain and is periodic with a sufficiently large period. The effective strain of a periodic element is defined. After phase transitions, the lattice rods are in two different states and lattice strain is inhomogeneous, the Cauchy-Born rule is not applicable. We show that the lattice has a number of deformed still states that carry no stresses. These states densely cover a neutral region in the space of entries of effective strains. In this region, the minimal energy of the periodic lattice is asymptotically close to zero. The compatibility of the partially transited lattice is studied. We derive compatibility conditions iiifor lattices and demonstrate a family of compatible lattices (strips) that densely covers the flat bottom region. Under an additional assumption of the small difference of two equilibrium lengths, we demonstrate that the still structures continuously vary with the effective strain and prove a linear dependence of the average strain on the concentration of transited rods.

description: We briefly tackle the following concepts in the Demkov-Ostrovsky (DO) nodeless sector: (i) orbital impedance, (ii) orbital capacity, (iii) closeness to reflectionlessness. Moreover, using previous supersymmetric results for the DO problem, a strictly isospectral effect in the DO orbital impedances is discussed and explicit plots are displayed for the Maxwell fisheye lens. This effect, though rather small, is general, that is, it may apply to any focusing structure.

Structural equation modeling of the metabolic syndrome
Creators: name: Ferent, Virginia
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Metabolic Syndrome

description: Visceral adiposity, atherogenic dyslipidaemia, glucose intolerance, and hypertension are all well-established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk factors that commonly cluster in the same individual, suggesting the existence of a syndrome. The syndrome has been criticized sharply for its confusing definitions, questionable predictive ability, and unclear pathophysiology. This study employed path analyses to elucidate the causal relationships among the syndrome variables. Four hypotheses about different origins of the syndrome were examined, and the results supported the hypothesis that obesity has the central role in the development of the metabolic syndrome clustering, which includes hypertension, elevated fasting glucose, increased triglycerides, and high high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations. The findings also suggested that fasting glucose and C-reactive protein (CRP) partially mediate the influence of obesity on the above-mentioned metabolic abnormalities. The results showed that fasting glucose was inversely related only with HDL-C, and not with any of the other abnormalities. The results of the analyses also showed that CRP partially mediated the effect of obesity on blood pressure and dyslipidaemia.

description: The phenomenon of concentration of measure on high dimensional structures is usually stated in terms of a metric space with a Borel measure, also called an mm-space. We extend some of the mm-space concepts to the setting of a quasi-metric space with probability measure (pq-space). Our motivation comes from biological sequence comparison: we show that many common similarity measures on biological sequences can be converted to quasi-metrics. We show that a high dimensional pq-space is very close to being an mm-space.

description: Using the Cloudy_3D code (Morisset, this conference), we run a set of models to build a catalog of emission line profiles of PNe. The goal is to cover the main morphologies (spherical, ellipsoidal, bipolar, thin or thick shells) and to compute profiles changing the orientation of the nebula, the expansion velocity law (including or not turbulence), the position/size of the aperture. The results is a huge set of profiles and PV-diagrams that can be compared to observations as a help to derive morpho-kinematical properties of real objects.

Spatial Variations of the Interstellar Polarization and Interstellar Extinction

description: For more than 5000 stars with accurate parallaxes from the Hipparcos and Gaia DR1 Tycho-Gaia astrometric solution (TGAS), Tycho-2 photometry, interstellar polarization from eight catalogues and interstellar extinction from eight 3D maps the largest up to date comparison of the polarization and extinction is provided. The extinction maps give different estimations of the extinction and of the polarization efficiency as the polarization divided into extinction $P/A_V$ as well as of the percentage of the stars with the polarization efficiency higher than the limit of Serkowski $P/A_V>0.03$. Using the Hipparcos parallaxes we found about 200 stars (4\%, mainly OB stars) drop higher than the limit when we use any extinction map. However, the usage of more accurate TGAS parallaxes decreases them to only 17 stars (0.3\%). The polarization and extinction are negligible inside the Local Bubble within 80 pc from the Sun. In the vast Bubble's shell at the distances 80--118 pc from the Sun the polarization and extinction rapidly grow with the distance whereas the position angle of the polarization is oriented predominantly along the shell of the Bubble. Outside the Bubble the polarization and extinction grow with the distance slowly. In addition, within a radius of 80--300 pc of the Sun a disc of some filamentary dust clouds (including well-known Markkanen cloud) is observed as in the polarization map as in the reddening one by Schlegel et al. In this disc the position angle of polarization is preferably oriented along the plane of the disk. For the regions further than 300 pc the position angle of polarization is preferably oriented along the Local spiral arm, i.e. Y coordinate axis. The polarization and its efficiency is lower in the dust layer in the Gould belt than in the equatorial dust layer. It may means different properties of dust in these two layers.

description: We present an analysis of the sensitivity limits of a proposed experimental search for quantum gravity, using a novel approach based on optical magnetometry in the noble gas isotope $^{129}$Xe. The analysis relies on a general uncertainty principle model that is consistent with most formulations of quantum gravity theory, where the canonical uncertainty relations are modified by a leading-order correction term that is linear in momentum. In turn, this correction modifies the magnetic moment of the spin-polarized $^{129}$Xe atoms that are immersed in a magnetic field in the proposed experiment, which results in a velocity-dependent variation of their Larmour frequency, that is detected via two-photon laser spectroscopy. The thermal distribution of atomic velocities, in conjunction with the Doppler effect, is used to scan the interrogating laser over different atomic velocities, and search for a corresponding variation in their Larmor frequencies. We show that the existing bounds on the leading-order quantum gravity correction can be improved by $10^{7}$ with existing technology, where another factor of $10^{2}$ is possible with near-future technical capabilities.

description: The protoplanetary disk around HL Tau is so far the youngest candidate of planet formation, and it is still embedded in a protostellar envelope with a size of thousands of au. In this work, we study the gas kinematics in the envelope and its possible influence on the embedded disk. We present our new ALMA cycle 3 observational results of HL Tau in the 13CO (2-1) and C18O (2-1) emission at resolutions of 0.8" (110 au), and we compare the observed velocity pattern with models of different kinds of gas motions. Both the 13CO and C18O emission lines show a central compact component with a size of 2" (280 au), which traces the protoplanetary disk. The disk is clearly resolved and shows a Keplerian motion, from which the protostellar mass of HL Tau is estimated to be 1.8+/-0.3 M$_\odot$, assuming the inclination angle of the disk to be 47 deg from the plane of the sky. The 13CO emission shows two arc structures with sizes of 1000-2000 au and masses of 3E-3 M$_\odot$ connected to the central disk. One is blueshifted and stretches from the northeast to the northwest, and the other is redshifted and stretches from the southwest to the southeast. We find that simple kinematical models of infalling and (counter-)rotating flattened envelopes cannot fully explain the observed velocity patterns in the arc structures. The gas kinematics of the arc structures can be better explained with three-dimensional infalling or outflowing motions. Nevertheless, the observed velocity in the northwestern part of the blueshifted arc structure is ~60-70% higher than the expected free-fall velocity. We discuss two possible origins of the arc structures: (1) infalling flows externally compressed by an expanding shell driven by XZ Tau and (2) outflowing gas clumps caused by gravitational instabilities in the protoplanetary disk around HL Tau.

description: The equation of state for an ideal gas is simple, which is $P=nk_{\rm B}T$. In the case of imperfect gases where mutual interactions among the constituents are important, pressure $P$ can be expressed as the series expansion of density $n$ with appropriate coefficients, known as virial coefficients $B_m$. In this paper, we have obtained the first four virial coefficients for a model interaction potential $Φ(r)$ using multidimensional Monte-Carlo integration and importance sampling methods. Next, we perform molecular dynamics simulations with the same $Φ(r)$ for a many-particle system to obtain $P$ as a function of $T$ and $n$. We compare our numerical data with the virial equation of state.

Ammonia recovery from digested dairy manure as nitrogen fertilizer
Creators: name: Jiang, Anping
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2009
Subjects: Manures -- Management

description: Manure management on large dairy farms has become a major issue due to air quality and water quality concerns caused by excess nitrogen and phosphorus. Prior research efforts have not been able to develop a practical solution beyond manure land application. In this study, a novel combined nutrient recovery and biogas upgrading system (combined system) was developed to mitigate the environmental concerns as well as to harvest value added by-products from the anaerobically digested manure. The combined system was proven both technically feasible and economically advantageous. Ammonia stripping is the main unit process of the combined system. Temperature and pH were identified as the most cost sensitive parameters of ammonia stripping. Economical optimization of the stripping process was studied and optimized parameters were provided for future application of the technology. The results suggest that the combined system can be a practical solution for the environmental problems associated with excess nitrogen and phosphorus on large dairy farms and can partially purify the biogas from the anaerobic digestion (AD). The performance of the combined system is highly dependent upon the chemical equilibriums of the digested manure. Current physic-chemical process models for wastewater cannot explain slow crystallizing precipitants formed in the effluent of dairy AD with long hydraulic retention time (HRT). In addition, current chemical models need detailed chemical data as input which are difficult to obtain for dairy wastewater. In this study, a two-step, three-phase chemical equilibrium model was developed for the supernatant of dairy AD. The model input was reduced by introducing a new parameter [delta]ions to account the difference between inert cations and anions. The model can differentiate the precipitates formed in the AD with long HRT from that in the post-AD treatment with short HRT. Model validation showed that crystallizing HAP (hydroxyapatite) formed slowly in the effluent of dairy AD with long HRT. The model was applied to the unit processes of the combined system and the results suggest that the two-step, three-phase chemical equilibrium model can be used to predict the performance of the combined system.

description: We examine the consistency of HI properties with the unification scheme for radio galaxies and quasars, and any correlation with the symmetry parameters for a sample of CSS and GPS sources. In our sample, 15 out of 23 galaxies exhibit 21-cm absorption as against 1 out of 9 quasars, which is broadly consistent with the unification scheme. Also there is a tendency for the detection rate as well as the column density for galaxies to increase with core prominence, f_c, a statistical indicator of the orientation of the jet axis to the line of sight. This can be understood in a scenario where radio sources are larger than the scale of the circumnuclear HI disk so that the lines of sight to the lobes at very large inclinations do not intersect the disk. The sources in our sample also exhibit the known anti-correlation between HI column density and source size. This suggests that small linear size, along with intermediate values of core prominence, is a good recipe for detecting 21-cm absorption in CSS and GPS objects. Some of the absorption could also be arising from clouds which may have interacted with the radio jet. The HI column density and velocity shift of the primary absorption component, however, show no dependence on the degree of misalignment and the separation ratio of the radio sources.

Optimizing biological nitrogen fixation and evaluating Iraqi extension education
Creators: name: Abi-Ghanem, Rita
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2009
Subjects: Nitrogen -- Fixation

description: An alternative to synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizer is the use of legumes with rhizobia bacterial symbionts that fix soil atmospheric N into plant-available forms. In this study we evaluated biological nitrogen fixation by strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum associated with breeding lines of peas (Pisum sativum L.) and lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.). We also isolated Mesorhizobium ciceri from Middle Eastern soils and compared interactions of Middle Eastern and commercial strains of M. ciceri with U.S. and Middle Eastern varieties of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.). In all trials, plant varieties had a greater effect in determining the proportion of plant N provided by fixation (PNF) than did rhizobial strains. Within each legume species, the greatest PNF was provided by Eston and Meritt lentils (80%), Shawnee and Bohatyr peas (91%), and Sierra chickpeas (87%). Our results suggest that crop breeding should be a fruitful avenue for increasing biological N fixation. Since science should utilize public outreach and serve society, extension education lectures were taught to Iraqis whose access to N fertilizers is limited. The recent war and instability have significantly impacted the country's agricultural production and knowledge support systems. To support revitalization of the Iraqi agricultural system, the USDA funded a consortium of five U.S. universities to provide training to agricultural extension personnel from Iraq. Surveys of the trainees guided training agendas and enhanced our understanding of extension, cropping systems, and information needs in Iraq. Both basic and advanced agricultural resources are lacking in Iraq, especially in plant protection, food and vegetable production, machinery use and repair, row crop production, and soil fertility. There is great demand for training, technology, basic farm equipment, seed, and fertilizers. In addition further training is needed in utilizing on-farm resources to efficiently produce crops while reversing the physical and chemical damage to Iraq's soil and other natural resources. Biological N fixation could provide significantly more N to cropping systems, both in developing countries where fertilizers are limited and developed countries where fertilizers are available but expensive. This work improves our understanding of both research and extension opportunities to increase use of biological N fixation.

Each marara displays a unique muyalaang (tree carving) that a Wiradjuri person carved into the outer surface of a tree after removing bark. Marara mark the dhabuganha (burials) of Wiradjuri men of high standing, representing part of traditional cultural practices that extend into the deep past. Yet, the meaning of these sacred locations is not widely understood due to the lack of Wiradjuri teaching, knowledge and participation in previous studies. Here we present the first Wiradjuri-led archaeological study of marara, muyalaang and dhabuganha, completed in the Central Tablelands. We combine a review of previous studies with new information from interviews with Wiradjuri Elders and knowledge holders, Ground Penetrating Radar survey, and 3D modelling (photogrammetry)–guided by the Wiradjuri philosophy Yindyamarra (cultural respect). The results build new, culturally and scientifically informed understandings of practical and symbolic aspects of Wiradjuri culture, with marara and dhabuganha viewed not as individual objects or ‘sites’ but as connected parts of Wiradjuri Lore, beliefs, traditional cultural practices and Country. Consistent with Wiradjuri Elder requests, this paper is freely available and written in simple language for the Wiradjuri community and beyond.

description: A phenomenological pion-nucleon interaction is used to obtain pionic mass modification in presence of constant homogeneous magnetic field background at finite temperature and chemical potential in the real time formalism of thermal field theory. The magnetically modified propagator in its complete form is used to obtain the one loop self-energy for pions. For charged pions we find that the effective mass increases with the magnetic field at given temperature and chemical potential. Since the transverse momentum of charged pion is quantized and its contribution to Dyson-Schwinger Equation is large compared to the loop correction, the charged pion mass remains constant with both temperature and chemical potential for a given landau level. In order to unveil the role of the real part of the self-energy, we also calculate the effective mass neglecting the trivial shift. The effective mass for charged pions shows an oscillatory behavior which is attributed to the thermal contribution of the self-energy. It is argued that the magnetic field dependent vacuum contribution to the self-energy influences the behavior of the effective mass both qualitatively and quantitatively. We also find that very large field is necessary for neutral pions to condense.

description: We report absolute frequency measurements of the molecular iodine P(46) 5-4 $a_{1}$, $a_{10}$, and $a_{15}$ hyperfine transitions at 647 nm with a fiber-based frequency comb. The light source is based on a Littrow-type external-cavity diode laser. A frequency stability of 5 $\times$ 10$^{-12}$ at a 200 s integration time is achieved when the light source is stabilized to the P(46) 5-4 $a_{15}$ line. The pressure shift is determined to be -8.3(7) kHz/Pa. Our determination of the line centers reached a precision of 21 kHz. The light source can serve as a reference laser for lithium atom spectroscopy ($2P \to 3P$).

description: Finite-length one-dimensional topological superconductor wires host localized Majorana zero modes at their ends. In realistic models, these appear only after a topological quantum critical point is crossed by external tuning of parameters. Thus, there is a universal finite-size scaling, governed by the critical point, that dictates the evolution of the energy of the Majorana modes near the transition. We first describe this scaling, then apply it in detail to an explicit synthetic topological superconductor model. Our work not only connects Ising quantum criticality with realistic nanowires in the presence of spin-orbit coupling, Zeeman splitting and superconductivity, but also provides a viable experimental route for discerning the existence of the topological quantum critical point.

Correcting the effects of spontaneous emission on cold trapped ions

description: We propose two quantum error correction schemes which increase the maximum storage time for qubits in a system of cold trapped ions, using a minimal number of ancillary qubits. Both schemes consider only the errors introduced by the decoherence due to spontaneous emission from the upper levels of the ions. Continuous monitoring of the ion fluorescence is used in conjunction with selective coherent feedback to eliminate these errors immediately following spontaneous emission events, and the conditional time evolution between quantum jumps is removed by symmetrizing the quantum codewords.

Mechanistic evaluation of N-dealkylation by cytochrome P450 using N, N-dimethylaniline N-oxides and kinetic isotope effects

description: Cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450) are a large family of heme-containing monooxygenases found throughout nature. Five isoforms in humans have gained the attention of the pharmaceutical industry due to their responsibility for the oxidation of the majority of pharmaceutical compounds. Due to unconstrained active sites which permit multiple orientations of a given substrate and an arsenal of oxidations attributed to the enzyme, the drug-metabolizing P450s are promiscuous enzymes. Development of predictive models for the oxidation of a given compound by P450 is a major goal for drug development. Since a drug may be oxidized in several ways, prediction of P450-mediated metabolism requires understanding the mechanisms of the possible oxidations that can be performed. This work is focused on evaluating the mechanism of N-dealkylation by P450s using N-oxides as competent models of the native P450 oxidant. N-dealkylation is a common form of metabolism of drug compounds. P450s frequently opt for N-dealkylation over other potential oxidations due to its apparent ease. Recent work has argued a hydrogen atom abstraction mechanism contingent upon a heme-centered iron-oxene, termed Cmpd I. In this work, we used anilinic N-oxides as surrogate oxygen donors in attempts to directly form Cmpd I. The ability to donate only a single oxygen atom and N-dealkylation rate measurements permitted us to exclude formation of other oxidants in favor of Cmpd I. Further, products formed from the mechanistic probe N-cyclopropyl-N-methylaniline excluded a single electron transfer method. When considered together with previous observations of similar KIEs for the native and N-oxide-supported systems, we have concluded that both systems follow a hydrogen atom transfer mechanism originating from a Cmpd I species. We have also determined KIE profiles in an active site mutant implicated in switching P450 from Cmpd I to a "second oxidant." These profiles support contributions of this second oxidant to N-dealkylation in these mutants, suggesting a role in oxidations performed by P450

description: Progressive damage, which eventually leads to failure, is ubiquitous in biological and synthetic polymers. The simplest case to consider is that of elastomeric materials, which can undergo large reversible deformations with negligible rate dependence. In this paper, we develop a theory for modeling progressive damage and rupture of such materials. We extend the phase-field method, which is widely used to describe the damage and fracture of brittle materials, to elastomeric materials undergoing large deformations. A central feature of our theory is the recognition that the free energy of elastomers is not entirely entropic in nature---there is also an energetic contribution from the deformation of the bonds in the chains. It is the energetic part in the free energy which is the driving force for progressive damage and fracture.

description: Multi-Label Text Classification (MLTC) is a fundamental task in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) that involves the assignment of multiple labels to a given text. MLTC has gained significant importance and has been widely applied in various domains such as topic recognition, recommendation systems, sentiment analysis, and information retrieval. However, traditional machine learning and Deep neural network have not yet addressed certain issues, such as the fact that some documents are brief but have a large number of labels and how to establish relationships between the labels. It is imperative to additionally acknowledge that the significance of knowledge is substantiated in the realm of MLTC. To address this issue, we provide a novel approach known as Knowledge-enhanced Doc-Label Attention Network (KeNet). Specifically, we design an Attention Network that incorporates external knowledge, label embedding, and a comprehensive attention mechanism. In contrast to conventional methods, we use comprehensive representation of documents, knowledge and labels to predict all labels for each single text. Our approach has been validated by comprehensive research conducted on three multi-label datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art MLTC method. Additionally, a case study is undertaken to illustrate the practical implementation of KeNet.

Computer simulation of combined microwave and water heating processes for packaged foods using finite difference time domain method

Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Food industry and trade

description: A microwave sterilization system was developed at Washington State University (WSU) that allows development of High-Temperature-Short-Time (HTST) processes for packaged foods. This system combines microwave and hot water heating. A major challenge of this novel technique is possible non-uniform heating created from the non-even electromagnetic distribution. The objective of this research is to develop an efficient and reliable numeric model to simulate the microwave sterilization process and provide the prediction of temperature profiles and distributions. Various conditions such as different dielectric properties, different physical configurations and different operation parameters were investigated to study their influences on heating uniformity in packaged foods. The simulation results were applied to predict system performance and obtain parameters for process optimization. Before the numeric model can be applied to analyze and optimize the system, it has to be validated. In this study, the simulation model was validated by comparing the numeric results with experimental measurements under both stationary and moving conditions. The heating patterns were measured by using a computer vision method developed by the microwave sterilization group at WSU. This method uses a chemical marker M-2 as an indicator of heat intensity inside the food packages, the marker intensity is converted to colour image for visualization purpose. The numeric model was then used to investigate the heating patterns under various conditions to improve the heating uniformity and reduce heating time. A sophisticate algorithm was developed to provide the set of operational parameters or physical configurations so that optimal performance can be achieved. Finally, future researches were suggested.
