description: In den letzten Jahren betrachtet man in Sofia eine Reihe von Verkehrsproblemen - steigende Anzahl an Bewohner und Autos, Mangel an freien Räumen (Parks) zugunsten des Verkehrs. Diese haben eine negative Auswirkung auf die Lebensqualität und sind auf unterschiedliche ökologische, psychologische und physikalische Faktoren zurückzuführen. Der hektische Alltag, die immer steigenden Anforderungen resultieren oft in hoher Geschwindigkeit der Autofahrer und stellen eine Bedrohung für den nichtmotorisierten Verkehr im Straßenraum dar. Die Gesellschaft strebt nach einer Reduktion der Verkehrsprobleme um das Leben und die Sicherheit der Menschen in der Millionenstadt zu verbessern. Dazu hilft ein gut organisiertes und schnelles öffentliches Verkehrsnetz mit großer Leistungsfähigkeit. Die immer steigende Anzahl an Autos hat sich als eine der Hauptursachen für die Mobilitäts- und Umweltprobleme der Hauptstadt bewiesen. Um diesen entgegenzuwirken, kürzere Fahrzeiten und verbesserten Fahrkomfort im ÖV zu sichern kommt die U-Bahn als eine praktische Lösung in Betracht. Die U-Bahn zählt zu den effektivsten und schnellsten Verkehrsarten mit wesentlichen Vorteilen im Sinne des Umweltschutzes. Das Ziel dieser Abschlussarbeit ist es die positiven Auswirkungen der U-Bahn in bestimmten Bereichen detailliert zu untersuchen. Sie besteht aus 3 maßgebenden Abschnitten und ist wie folgt aufgebaut: -Theoretischer Teil mit allgemeiner Information und Datenauswetungen. Im ersten Kapitel wird über die existierende Verkehrssituation in Sofia berichtet. Die Erhebungen enthalten Daten über das Bevölkerungswachstum, die Linien- und Bevölkerungsdichte, die Anzahl an Autos und Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit und die Umwelt. - Praktischer Teil mit Planungsentscheidungen. Dieser Kapitel umfasst den Planungsprozess der U-Bahn und die konstruktiven Lösungen bei dem Bau der Verlängerung der Linie. Dazu werden zusätzliche Einschätzungen über die Festlegung der genauen Lage der Trasse und der optimalen Lage der Stationen, neue Parkplätzen für Autos und Fahrräder, die Planung von neuen Buslinien usw. entwickelt. - Prognose und analytischer Teil. Hier sind die volkswirtschaftlichen Vorteile der Verlängerung der U-Bahnlinie analysiert. Eine Prognose für die Entwicklung der bestehenden Siedlungsgebiete wird durchgeführt.

Projected Newton method for noise constrained $\ell_p$ regularization
Creators: name: Cornelis, Jeffrey

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Choosing an appropriate regularization term is necessary to obtain a meaningful solution to an ill-posed linear inverse problem contaminated with measurement errors or noise. The $\ell_p$ norm covers a wide range of choices for the regularization term since its behavior critically depends on the choice of $p$ and since it can easily be combined with a suitable regularization matrix. We develop an efficient algorithm that simultaneously determines the regularization parameter and corresponding $\ell_p$ regularized solution such that the discrepancy principle is satisfied. We project the problem on a low-dimensional Generalized Krylov subspace and compute the Newton direction for this much smaller problem. We illustrate some interesting properties of the algorithm and compare its performance with other state-of-the-art approaches using a number of numerical experiments, with a special focus of the sparsity inducing $\ell_1$ norm and edge-preserving total variation regularization.

Abstract
Sustainability is focussed on avoiding the long-term depletion of natural resources. Under the terms of a government plan to tackle climate change, a driver for improved sustainability is the cut of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK to almost zero by 2050. With this type of change, new themes are continuously being developed which drive complex projects, such as the development of new power generation methods, which encompass challenging lead times and demanding requirements. Consideration of the implementation of strategies and key concepts, which may engender sustainability within complex projects therefore presents an opportunity for further critical debate, review, and application through a project management lens. Sustainability incorporation in project management has been documented in academic literature, with this emerging field providing new challenges. For example, project management education can provide a holistic base for the inculcation of sustainability factors to a range of industries, including complex projects. Likewise, practitioner interest and approaches to sustainability in project management are being driven by the recently Chartered Association for Project Management (APM). Whilst this body makes a significant contribution to the UK economy across many sectors, it also addresses ongoing sustainability challenges. Therefore, by drawing on research and practitioner developments, the authors argue that by connecting with the next generation through practice simulation approaches, and embedding sustainability issues within project management tools and methods, improved focus on sustainability in complex project management may be achieved.

description: A novel spin filtering in two-dimensional electron system with nonuniform spin-orbit interactions (SOI) is theoretically studied. The strength of SOI is modulated perpendicular to the charge current. A spatial gradient of effective magnetic field due to the nonuniform SOI causes the Stern-Gerlach type spin separation. The direction of the polarization is perpendicular to the current and parallel to the spatial gradient. Almost 100 % spin polarization can be realized even without applying any external magnetic fields and without attaching ferromagnetic contacts. The spin polarization persists even in the presence of randomness.

Single-particle spectral function of quarter-filled ladder systems

description: We study the single-particle properties of quarter-filled ladder systems such as sodium vanadate by means of a recently developed generalization of the variational cluster perturbation theory to extended Hubbard models. We find a homogeneous antiferromagnetic insulating phase for nearest-neighbor repulsions smaller than a critical value, without any metallic phase for small repulsions. Different from C-DMFT and LDA considerations, the inclusion of diagonal hopping within a ladder has little effect on the bonding bands, while flattening and shifting the antibonding bands. In the low-temperature charge-ordered phase, the spectrum depends on whether the ordering is driven by the Coulomb repulsion or by the coupling to a static lattice distortion. The small change of the experimentally observed gap upon charge ordering implies that the lattice coupling plays an important role in this ordering. Inter-ladder coupling is straightforward to include within our method. We show that it has only a minor effect on the spectral function. The numerically calculated spectra show good agreement with experimental angle-resolved photo-emission data.

title: Informal Language Learning: The Perspective of Higher Education Students in Brussels. A Case Study
Creators: name: Van Marsenille, Anne Therese Marie Aimee
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2015

description: This research explores informal language learning by Higher Education (HE) students in Brussels. Informal language learning is defined in this thesis as learning that takes place outside formal HE institutions. Informal language learning has been studied less than its counterpart, formal learning, because it is more difficult to observe, to quantify and to evaluate. It depends more on the learner, which makes it more difficult to grasp. Informal learning is less structured because it does not occur within a formal learning context; the learning objectives are not defined by the teacher and can vary, according to the learner’s situation. The literature review examines the difference between learning and acquisition; this study draws on Krashen’s (1976) monitor theory where learning comes from formal instruction and is a conscious process, while acquisition involves meaningful interaction in the target language and is a subconscious process. This study explores the different types of motivation to study informally and examines how reflection can be used to monitor and improve the language that has been acquired by the learner outside class. This project is situated within an experiential approach in qualitative inquiry. The students’ experience of learning outside class as it is lived by them has been studied. This is naturalistic rather than experimental research as normal learning situations are examined from the learners’ point of view. Mixed methods were used to collect the data: questionnaires, interviews and self-reports to analyse the informal learning process in more detail. The self-report was an adaptation of the ‘European Language Portfolio’ (ELP) (Council of Europe 2009), which is a tool that links informal to formal learning. Recommendations based on the findings of this study suggest new methods and strategies for language learning to students and that teachers should be aware of what students do, what motivates them and how learners reflect upon the language learning process, in order to help them learn in class and beyond.
Subgraphs and network motifs in geometric networks

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Many real-world networks describe systems in which interactions decay with the distance between nodes. Examples include systems constrained in real space such as transportation and communication networks, as well as systems constrained in abstract spaces such as multivariate biological or economic datasets and models of social networks. These networks often display network motifs: subgraphs that recur in the network much more often than in randomized networks. To understand the origin of the network motifs in these networks, it is important to study the subgraphs and network motifs that arise solely from geometric constraints. To address this, we analyze geometric network models, in which nodes are arranged on a lattice and edges are formed with a probability that decays with the distance between nodes. We present analytical solutions for the numbers of all 3 and 4-node subgraphs, in both directed and non-directed geometric networks. We also analyze geometric networks with arbitrary degree sequences, and models with a field that biases for directed edges in one direction. Scaling rules for scaling of subgraph numbers with system size, lattice dimension and interaction range are given. Several invariant measures are found, such as the ratio of feedback and feed-forward loops, which do not depend on system size, dimension or connectivity function. We find that network motifs in many real-world networks, including social networks and neuronal networks, are not captured solely by these geometric models. This is in line with recent evidence that biological network motifs were selected as basic circuit elements with defined information-processing functions.

description: The aim of the paper was to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of development priorities adopted in the regional strategic documents for the development of agriculture and rural areas. The research was restricted to Podkarpacie, which is characterized by the lowest urbanization ratio in the country. Rural areas and agriculture have been prioritized in regional development strategies since they started to be formulated, i.e. since the late 90s of the last century. The strategies commonly assumed major structural changes, leading to improved utilization of resource associated with these areas. These objectives have been achieved to a limited extent, which resulted in the fact that the endogenous potential of agriculture and rural areas of the region is still being underutilized in the socio-economic development. This is evidenced by, among other things, still high unemployment rate in rural areas, high fragmentation of farms and their small average size, large declines in livestock and low growth in the SME sector. In fact, this means that the priorities for the sustainable development are also implemented to a limited extent.

Black widow formation by pulsar irradiation and sustained magnetic braking

description: Black widows are millisecond pulsars with low-mass companions, a few per cent the mass of the sun, on orbits of several hours. These companions are presumably the remnants of main sequence stars that lost their mass through a combination of Roche-lobe overflow and ablation by the host pulsar's high-energy radiation. While ablation itself is too weak to significantly reduce the mass of the companion star, the ablated wind couples to its magnetic field, removes orbital angular momentum, and thus maintains stable Roche-lobe overflow. We use the MESA stellar evolution code, complemented by analytic estimates, to track initially main sequence companions as they are reduced to a fraction of their original mass by this ablation-driven magnetic braking. We argue that magnetic braking remains effective even for low-mass companions. A key ingredient of our model is that the irradiating luminosity of the pulsar $L_{\rm irr}$ deposits energy in the companion's atmosphere and thereby slows down its Kelvin-Helmholtz cooling. We find that the high-energy luminosities measured by Fermi $L_{\rm irr}=0.1-3\,{\rm L}_\odot$ can explain the span of black widow orbital periods. The same $L_{\rm irr}$ range reproduces the companions' night-side temperatures, which cluster around 3000 K, as inferred from optical light curves.

description: This paper presents a novel solution technique for scheduling multi-energy system (MES) in a commercial urban building to perform price-based demand response and reduce energy costs. The MES scheduling problem is formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear program (MINLP), a non-convex NPhard problem with uncertainties due to renewable generation and demand. A model predictive control approach is used to handle the uncertainties and price variations. This in-turn requires solving a time-coupled multi-time step MINLP during each time-epoch which is computationally intensive. This investigation proposes an approach called the Scenario-Based Branch-and-Bound (SB3), a light-weight solver to reduce the computational complexity. It combines the simplicity of convex programs with the ability of meta-heuristic techniques to handle complex nonlinear problems. The performance of the SB3 solver is validated in the Cleantech building, Singapore and the results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm reduces energy cost by about 17.26% and 22.46% as against solving a multi-time step heuristic optimization model.

description: In this paper we study the question of residual gauge fixing in the path integral approach for a general class of axial-type gauges including the light-cone gauge. We show that the two cases -- axial-type gauges and the light-cone gauge -- lead to very different structures for the explicit forms of the propagator. In the case of the axial-type gauges, fixing the residual symmetry determines the propagator of the theory completely. On the other hand, in the light-cone gauge there is still a prescription dependence even after fixing the residual gauge symmetry, which is related to the existence of an underlying global symmetry.

description: Ions in ionic liquids and concentrated electrolytes reside in a crowded, strongly-interacting environment, leading to the formation of discrete layers of charges at interfaces. Here, we propose a continuum theory that captures the transition from overscreening-- alternating layers of excess charge at low surface potential, to overcrowding-- the formation of dense layers of charge of the same sign at high surface potential. The model outputs slowly-decaying oscillations in the charge density with a wavelength of single ion diameters, as shown by analysis of the gradient expansion. The gradient expansion suggests a new structure for partial differential equations describing the electrostatic potential at charged interfaces. We find quantitative agreement between the theory and molecular simulations in the differential capacitance and concentration profiles.

description: Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among Canadian women and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in North America. Hormonal influences including early menstruation, reproductive history, and hormone replacement therapy usage strongly affect breast cancer risk and development. In addition, hormone deprivation such as ovariectomy, hypophysectomy, and anti-estrogen therapy have been used as treatments to slow breast cancer growth. In the present study, we determined the effect of hypophysectomy on mammary carcinogenesis. Twenty intact and hypophysectornized (at 7 to 7.5 weeks) virgin Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with a single intragastric administration of 20 mg of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) or an equivalent volume of corn oil between 50 to 60 days of age. None of the hypophysectomized rats developed mammary tumors at 120 days post-treatment, whereas 55% of intact rats treated with DMBA developed mammary tumors. DMBA is a polyaromatic hydrocarbon procarcinogen that requires metabolic activation by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) system and microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) prior to becoming carcinogenic. To determine if CYP and mEH enzymes needed for DMBA activation are down-regulated in hypophysectomized rats, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, and mEH protein levels and CYP1-mediated enzyme activities were measured in liver and mammary tissue. Immunoblot analysis showed that there were no differences in hepatic CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 levels between DMBA- or corn oil-treated intact and hypophysectomized rats. The results also showed that mammary CYP1A1, CYP1A2, and CYP1B1 from hypophysectomized and intact rats were induced by DMBA. Microsomal EH levels in the liver and mammary gland were increased in hypophysectomized rats when compared to the intact animals and DMBA treatment did not further affect mEH expression. MROD and BaP hydroxylase activities were similar in corn oil-treated hypophysectomized and intact rats and DMBA treatment increased both activities in hypophysectomized and intact rats to a similar extent. Based on the results of this study, the lack of mammary tumorigenesis in DMBA-treated hypophysectomized rats cannot be ascribed to the inability of either hepatic or mammary tissue to bioactivate DMBA.

description: Der Mensch ist auf der Suche nach Möglichkeiten, nicht nur Energie zu sparen, sondern sie auch möglichst umwelt- und klimafreundlich zu erzeugen. Deswegen wird vermehrtes Augenmerk auf den erneuerbaren Energiequellen gelegt. Heutzutage spielt nur die Wasserkraft eine bedeutende Rolle bei der umweltfreundlichen Energieerzeugung. In Rahmen vorliegender Diplomarbeit wird insbesondere die bauliche und konstruktive Gestaltung von Flusskraftwerke erläutert. Flusskraftwerke gehören zu den Niederdruckanlagen und werden direkt in den Flusslauf gebaut. Wasserkraftanlagen teilen sich gemäß der Fallhöhe in drei Haupttypen - Nieder-, Mittel- und Hochdruckanlagen. Im allgemeinen Teil werden die zwei Arten von Niederdruckanlagen kurz beschrieben - nämlich die Flusskraftwerke und ihre Sonderform - die Ausleitungskraftwerke. Der Hauptteil der Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit den wichtigsten Bauteilen einer Niederdruckanlage. Wehr und Krafthaus bilden zusammen ein komplettes Flusskraftwerk. Es werden im Detail alle Haupt- und Nebenbauwerke diskutiert, noch ihre Bemessung und die Rolle, die sie für die richtige Arbeit eines Kraftwerkes spielen. Die Anordnung eines Kraftwerks in einem Fluss unterscheidet sich in Bezug auf seine Lage zum Wehr. Einen spezifischen Aufbau wird gemäß den Eigenschaften und der Lage des Flusses gewählt. Noch werden die Besonderheiten jeder Art und die Voraussetzungen seiner Verwendung beschrieben.
description: Man is looking for ways not only to save energy, but also to generate it environmentally and climate-friendly as much as possible. This is why increasing attention is paid to renewable energy sources. Nowadays only hydropower plays an important role in environmentally friendly energy generation. Within the framework of the present master thesis, the structural design of river power plants will be explained. River power plants are part of the low-pressure systems and are built directly into the river. Hydropower plants divide according to the fall height to three main types - low, medium and high pressure systems. In the general section the two types of low-pressure systems are briefly described - namely, the river power plants and their special form - the discharge power plants. The main part of the thesis deals with the most important components of a low-pressure system. Weir and powerhouse together form a complete river power plant. All main and secondary structures, their assessment and the role they play for the correct work of a power plant are discussed in detail. The arrangement of a power station in a river differs in relation to its position to the weir. A specific structure is chosen according to the characteristics and position of the river. The peculiarities of each type and the conditions for their use are de-scribed.

description: La heterogeneidad y el oportunismo de los socios se presentan tradicionalmente como factores limitantes para la realización de inversiones y el desarrollo empresarial de las cooperativas. En este estudio contrastamos los efectos de diversos tipos de heterogeneidad de los socios sobre el oportunismo, y de ambos conceptos sobre la disposición a invertir en la cooperativa. Los resultados permiten destacar el efecto que cada tipo de heterogeneidad ejerce sobre la disposición a invertir de los socios en su cooperativa, y el papel mediador y directo que desempeña también el oportunismo sobre esta disposición

description: Este trabajo pretende identificar, en el contexto actual de crisis económica, los factores asociados a la resiliencia territorial en el medio rural andaluz. Para ello se ha diseñado una metodología que, aplicada en dos períodos de tiempo (2000-2008 y 2008-2012), permite, por una parte, y mediante un enfoque Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), identificar territorios que han experimentado procesos de cambio resilientes, y por otra determinar la influencia que un amplio rango de factores territoriales tienen sobre dicha resiliencia. Los resultados alcanzados pueden proporcionar información útil para el diseño de políticas que permitan una mejor respuesta de los territorios rurales frente a la crisis.

description: A variational Monte Carlo method is used to generate sets of orthogonal trial functions, Psi_T(J^pi,T), for given quantum numbers in various light p-shell nuclei. These Psi_T are then used as input to Green's function Monte Carlo calculations of first, second, and higher excited (J^pi,T) states. Realistic two- and three-nucleon interactions are used. We find that if the physical excited state is reasonably narrow, the GFMC energy converges to a stable result. With the combined Argonne v_18 two-nucleon and Illinois-2 three-nucleon interactions, the results for many second and higher states in A = 6--8 nuclei are close to the experimental values.

description: This paper focuses on the visible-thermal cross-modality person re-identification (VT Re-ID) task, whose goal is to match person images between the daytime visible modality and the nighttime thermal modality. The two-stream network is usually adopted to address the cross-modality discrepancy, the most challenging problem for VT Re-ID, by learning the multi-modality person features. In this paper, we explore how many parameters of two-stream network should share, which is still not well investigated in the existing literature. By well splitting the ResNet50 model to construct the modality-specific feature extracting network and modality-sharing feature embedding network, we experimentally demonstrate the effect of parameters sharing of two-stream network for VT Re-ID. Moreover, in the framework of part-level person feature learning, we propose the hetero-center based triplet loss to relax the strict constraint of traditional triplet loss through replacing the comparison of anchor to all the other samples by anchor center to all the other centers. With the extremely simple means, the proposed method can significantly improve the VT Re-ID performance. The experimental results on two datasets show that our proposed method distinctly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods by large margins, especially on RegDB dataset achieving superior performance, rank1/mAP/mINP 91.05%/83.28%/68.84%. It can be a new baseline for VT Re-ID, with a simple but effective strategy.

description: En este artículo se valora el Parque Natural de Calblanque a través del método del coste de viaje individual y del de valoración contingente en formato dicotómico simple. La diferencia de valoración obtenida podría explicarse porque las medidas de valor corresponden a conceptos económicos diferentes, excedente del consumidor en el primer caso y variación equivalente en el segundo. Esta diferencia sugeriría la ausencia de un efecto sustitución significativo entre el consumo de este bien ambiental y bienes privados. El uso conjunto de estos métodos permite recuperar una parte importante de las respuestas protesta con el proceso de recodificación propuesto.
