description: In this study, we propose a real-time distributed collaborative system that inspectors equipped with Mixed Reality (MR) and Virtual Reality (VR) headsets can perform synchronous structural inspections on- and off-site. MR headsets are equipped with a holographic display that allows on-site inspectors to visualize the locations of structural defects overlaid on the structure, while VR headsets allow off-site inspectors to visualize and interact with a reconstructed 3D virtual environment. A proposed workflow begins with generating a colorized 3D point cloud map of the site using visual sensors and lidars prior to the inspection. The map is then stored in a centralized server to be accessible to multiple MR/VR users. MR inspectors performing the structural assessment on-site are spatially aligned in the reconstructed map using image-based localization. MR inspectors can then add annotations and capture images of structural defects that are stored on the map and shared with remote VR users. Simultaneously, VR inspectors can perform the inspection using the localized images stored on the map and shared by the MR inspector. VR inspectors can also add annotations that are both visible to other VR and MR inspectors, achieving collaborative inspection. An experimental study is conducted in a lab environment to demonstrate the proposed workflow using Microsoft HoloLens 2 (HL2) as the MR headset and Oculus Quest 2 as the VR headset. A panoramic camera (Ricoh Theta Z1) was attached to the HL2 headset to give the VR user a 360 degrees view of the site from images captured by the MR inspector for inspection and map reconstruction.

description: The objective of the proposed research is to build a mobile data acquisition system that can perform multi-dimension structural assessment. The system is fully portable (either handheld or backpack-based) and self-contained hardware consisting of a solid-state lidar sensor, a camera, an onboard computer, and all the auxiliary hardware. The system incorporates a multi-dimension damage assessment algorithm that can detect, segment, and quantify various types of damages needed to be inspected. For example, inspectors measure the length and width of crack (1D) and the areas and depth for spalling (2D and 3D). Our system streamlines such quantitative damage assessment by utilizing 2D images localized to the structure and detailed 3D point cloud data reconstructed from lidar and images. We implemented computer vision algorithms to extract useful damage parameters from those data following a structure inspection guideline. For the demonstration of our system, we gather data from the in-service bridge using a mobile data acquisition system and conduct damage assessment as per the Ontario Structural Inspection Manual.

description: Potassium tetraborate (PTB) is a product resulting from the controlled reaction of potassium hydroxide, water and boric acid (BA). It is used in many areas of industry such as disinfectant, detergent and treatment of contact lenses. PTB is one of the boron compounds which is most commonly used in many areas of industry although very limited information is available concerning its toxicity. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to determine genetic and biochemical effects of PTB in human blood cell cultures (n=4). PTB was added into culture tubes at various concentrations (0-1280 μg/ml). Micronucleus (MN) and chromosomal aberration (CA) tests were performed for genotoxic damage influences estimation. In addition, biochemical parameters (total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total oxidative status (TOS) were examined to determine oxidative effects. The results indicated that all tested concentrations of PTB were found to be non-genotoxic. In addition, low concentrations (1.25, 2.5 and 5 μg/ml) of PTB caused increases of TAC levels. Furthermore, all concentrations of PTB were not changed the TOS levels in cultured human blood cells. Based on these results, in this study it has been reported for the first time that PTB is not genotoxic and it in creases the antioxidant capacity in human peripheral blood lymphocytes.

description: Unconventional metallic states which do not support well defined single-particle excitations can arise near quantum phase transitions as strong quantum fluctuations of incipient order parameters prevent electrons from forming coherent quasiparticles. Although antiferromagnetic phase transitions occur commonly in correlated metals, understanding the nature of the strange metal realized at the critical point in layered systems has been hampered by a lack of reliable theoretical methods that take into account strong quantum fluctuations. We present a non-perturbative solution to the low-energy theory for the antiferromagnetic quantum critical metal in two spatial dimensions. Being a strongly coupled theory, it can still be solved reliably in the low-energy limit as quantum fluctuations are organized by a new control parameter that emerges dynamically. We predict the exact critical exponents that govern the universal scaling of physical observables at low temperatures.

description: Bei analytischen und numerischen Berechnungen von nicht gestützten Baugruben treten eine Reihe von offenen Fragen auf: Verteilung des Erddruckes, Ansatz der Wandreibung, Erdwiderstand unterhalb des Drehpunktes und Einfluss der Biegesteifigkeit auf das Tragverhalten. Mit numerischen Berechnungen werden die einzelnen Punkte untersucht. Zur Modellierung der Wandreibung wird ein hypoplastisches Kontaktmodell für beliebig raue Oberflächen entwickelt. Es werden die Einflüsse von Druckniveau, Lagerungsdichte des Bodens und des Scherwegs auf das Reibungsverhalten abgebildet. Für den Erdwiderstand unterhalb des Drehpunktes werden aus den Ergebnissen numerischer Berechnungen analytische Ansätze für die Verteilung und die Größe des Erdwiderstandes abgeleitet. Dabei werden die Einflüsse der Wandrauigkeit, der Lagerungsdichte des Bodens und der Drehpunktlage berücksichtigt. Ebenso werden die Bruchmechanismen bei Drehung um einen auf der Wand liegenden Punkt geklärt. Die Ergebnissen numerischer Berechnungen zeigen einen erheblichen Einfluss der Wandbiegesteifigkeit auf das Tragverhalten der Wand. Sowohl die Bodenreaktionen als auch die Schnittgrößen der Wand sind von dem Verhältnis von Wandbiegesteifigkeit und Bodensteifigkeit abhängig. Mit den Erkenntnissen der gewonnen Ergebnissen wird ein analytischer Ansatz zur Berechnung der bodenmechanischen Einspannung für Baugrubenwände vorgestellt.
description: Analytical and numerical calculations of retaining wall structures with fixed earth support are still bearing some open questions: earth pressure distribution, skin friction, passive earth pressure beneath the centre of rotation and influence of stiffness of the wall. For modeling the skin friction, a hypoplastic contact model is developed. It is capable to simulate any roughness of surfaces as well the soil behaviour in the contact zone. To calculate the passive earth pressure due to a rotation around an axis on the wall analytical approaches are presented. Therefore the results of numerical calculations are used. The influences of skin friction, density of the soil and variation of the axis of rotation are taken in to account. The proposals cover the passive earth pressure as well as its distribution. The results of numerical simulations show an strong influence of the stiffness of the wall on the subgrade reaction and the section forces. A new analytical approach is presented to design fixed earth support. The results of the numerical calculations are taken in account for this proposal.

description: Historical aerial photographs of urban areas capture the reality of the urban development. This type of data provides us with a resource for studying trends in urban development, and its positive and negative impacts on today’s society. A database consisting of remotely sensed images, maps and historical records allows us to understand why changes have occurred, which is important for future planning. To examine and understand how New Brunswick (NB) municipal and provincial agencies, and federal government, shaped development for NB’s major cities, we plan to (a) develop an online web mapping system that contains historical aerial images, maps and historical records of three largest cities in NB (Fredericton, Moncton, and Saint John), and (b) make this historical web mapping system available to historians and other experts for analyzing the cities’ developments. However, compiling the databases containing photographic collections from early 1900s onwards can be challenging. This presentation discusses (1) the challenges and successes in compiling a photogrammetric database for Fredericton and (2) initial findings in using the database for urban development analysis. The compiling process includes: (a) data acquisition – acquiring analogue (aerial prints) and digital imagery, (b) data processing – scanning, colour balancing, georeferencing, mosaicking, and (c) product dissemination – making database available online. This paper will discuss issues encountered with both analogue and digital collections, including missing prints, missing fiducials, radiometric distortions in prints and digital collections, effect of radiometric differences on image matching, database size versus server storage capacity, etc. This paper will then discuss the methods used to resolve the above issues and conclude with a presentation of the online historical aerial database and an example of how the database is used for urban analysis.

Origin of magnetic anisotropy in doped Ce$_2$Co$_{17}$ alloys

description: Magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) in doped Ce$_{2}$Co$_{17}$ and other competing structures was investigated using density functional theory. We confirmed that the MCA contribution from dumbbell Co sites is very negative. Replacing Co dumbbell atoms with a pair of Fe or Mn atoms greatly enhance the uniaxial anisotropy, which agrees quantitatively with experiment, and this enhancement arises from electronic-structure features near the Fermi level, mostly associated with dumbbell sites. With Co dumbbell atoms replaced by other elements, the variation of anisotropy is generally a collective effect and contributions from other sublattices may change significantly. Moreover, we found that Zr doping promotes the formation of 1-5 structure that exhibits a large uniaxial anisotropy, such that Zr is the most effective element to enhance MCA in this system.

description: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been revolutionizing various 3D processing fields, such as autonomous driving and augmented reality. They also have a great potential to facilitate building information modeling (BIM) based on 3D scanned data, a process known as Scan-to-BIM. Several studies have investigated the potential of DNNs to improve the Scan-to-BIM pipeline. However, most of the existing studies are high-level overviews of DNN applications. In this study, an in-depth investigation of the DNNs’ capacities in improving 3D reconstruction, object detection, and object parametrization, which serve as the core components of Scan-to-BIM, is provided. Our investigation is performed by reviewing the most relevant studies of the computer vision and construction literatures to gain a comprehensive view of both the stateof-the-art processing methods of scanned data, as well as the progress of automated BIModeling using Industry Foundation Class (IFC) objects. Based on the reviewed state-of-the-art studies, current challenges and limitations are discussed to identify further avenues for research.

description: This article is focused on port control, logistics and remote automation, and aims at detecting the presence/absence of seals at cargo containers. The proposed use case is realized by developing a novel computer vision algorithm for the task at hand, enabled as far-edge computing services on board 5G connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The proposed service adopts key enabling technologies of the 5G ecosystem such Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) with MAnagement and Network Orchestration (MANO) support for (automated) lifecycle management of the various service components. The service and overall architecture can be deployed on commodity servers to facilitate interoperability across heterogeneous ports, at low cost. Our results, based on real datasets obtained from the Piraeus port operations illustrate that the subject computer vision approach can achieve up to about 94% accuracy for detecting the presence of absence of container seals.
Integrating Gaming Technologies into Heritage Reality Capture Processes

description: This case study will illustrate how the joint venture professional services team (CENTRUS) for the Centre Block Rehabilitation project is leveraging and developing innovative reality capture technologies to record multiple states of conservation and construction throughout the decade’s long duration of the project. The team is developing a time-based reality capture platform, driven by gaming technology, to allow stakeholders to trace building component composition, services distribution, and spatial visualization. Point clouds, photogrammetry, and high-resolution orthographic imagery are used to generate mesh topologies that capture everything from the component-based layers of construction (finish, service, structure, etc.) to the progress of mass site excavation. Our project infuses XR technologies to simultaneously visualize and combine reality capture data with the models that capture the design intent for various disciplines on the project (architectural, electrical, mechanical, structural, sustainability, etc.). We are using state of the art hardware that allows us to mix the physical and virtual realms and provide a field of view of up to 115 degrees at a resolution of over 70 PPD (2880x2720px /eye) – some hardware constraints and limitations have prevented us from achieving complete mixed parity, we are currently developing some workarounds in coordination with the team developing the headset. The guiding intent of the project is to ensure that the state of heritage assets is accurately visualized and that the data that defines the state of any given asset follows it throughout its existence on the project; whether it is to be refurbished or removed. Assets are tracked via a variety of databases, methods, and systems. Our Streamable Assets Platform (SAP) collects data from each endpoint and combines them into a single harmonized method of distribution, accessible via a web browser. Asset data structures are an integral aspect to the entire system and allow us to structure the platform such that it may be used to incorporate future data sources, such as facilities and operations related data streams. The case study will illustrate reality capture driven development methods we are using to ingest/leverage terrestrial/drone laser scans, photogrammetry, and orthographic photos to overlay asset-design data throughout the progress of a renovation to one of Canada’s most notable architectural icons.

description: Motivated by recent experimental studies of rheological hysteresis in soft glassy materials, we study numerically strain rate sweeps in simple yield stress fluids and viscosity bifurcating yield stress fluids. Our simulations of downward followed by upward strain rate sweeps, performed within fluidity models and the soft glassy rheology model, successfully capture the experimentally observed monotonic decrease of the area of the rheological hysteresis loop with sweep time in simple yield stress fluids, and the bell shaped dependence of hysteresis loop area on sweep time in viscosity bifurcating fluids. We provide arguments explaining these two different functional forms in terms of differing tendencies of simple and viscosity bifurcating fluids to form shear bands during the sweeps, and show that the banding behaviour captured by our simulations indeed agrees with that reported experimentally. We also discuss the difference in hysteresis behaviour between inelastic and viscoelastic fluids. Our simulations qualitatively agree with the experimental data discussed here for four different soft glassy materials.

Our bounds apply in situations in which the MLE can be written as a function of a sum of i.i.d. $t$-dimensional random vectors. We apply our general bound to establish a bound for the multivariate normal approximation of the MLE of the normal distribution with unknown mean and variance.

description: Reality capture is moving past the realm of professionals and into the realm of common usage. With the use of close-range photogrammetry and LiDAR combined with IMUs, mainstream technology like the Matterport Pro2, the Samsung Note 20 Ultra and the Microsoft Hololens2 enable the collection of 3D information of a geographic location within seconds and a price point below 'survey grade' instruments. But, how good is it? How accurate are the representations they create? In this UNB undergraduate capstone project presentation, we will be assessing the 3D models created by these platforms against established terrestrial LiDAR collection techniques to determine the suitabilty of these technologies in the field of professional reality capture.

description: Current quantum technology is approaching the system sizes and fidelities required for quantum error correction. It is therefore important to determine exactly what is needed for proof-of-principle experiments, which will be the first major step towards fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here we propose a surface code based experiment that is the smallest, both in terms of code size and circuit depth, that would allow errors to be detected and corrected for both the $X$ and $Z$ basis of a qubit. This requires $17$ physical qubits initially prepared in a product state, on which $16$ two-qubit entangling gates are applied before a final measurement of all qubits. A platform agnostic error model is applied to give some idea of the noise levels required for success. It is found that a true demonstration of quantum error correction will require fidelities for the preparation and measurement of qubits and the entangling gates to be above $99\%$.

description: The concept of a digital twin has become ubiquitous within conventional construction to aid with collaboration, build clarity and reduce error. While BIM and other media can represent the characteristics of a space, VR can convey the experience of a place, and AR can enhance your understanding of that place. Leveraging these technologies help to simplify this complexity. DIRTT utilizes proprietary design software called ICE which serves a translator of information for conventional design documents, augmenting them to incorporate bills of materials, manufacturing data, and engineering specifications all combined with rich visualization capabilities. These capabilities allow users to join stakeholders within project files from anywhere in the world to make design and construction decisions in real time. In this presentation, attendees will be led through the three levels of immersion offered during the ICE design and construction processes - from solo, localized experiences to full body, multi-user experiences. Using a collaborative reality capture platform, attendees can also experience these capabilities themselves in real time through our ICEreality app. Additional case studies will be presented to demonstrate how clients and designers have improved their pre-construction flow by using extended reality in unique and powerful ways. Technology platforms like ICE are helping to redefine the way designers and clients approach a project. It allows them to limit unnecessary back-and-forth design verification through real-time visualization and instant quotes, while shortening lead times by automatically creating precise and customized construction data. By leveraging extended reality, the ICE system offers increased design freedom, and greater certainty in cost, schedule, and outcomes.

description: In order to deliver alpha B-crystallin (alpha B-C) into cardiomyocytes and study its cellular protection, the full-length cDNA fragment encoding human alpha B-C was cloned into the bacterial expression vector pGEX-MTS containing the base sequence of membrane-translocating sequence (MTS) which mediates intracellular delivery of peptides and expressed as a fusion protein coupled to glutathione S-transferase (GST).After glutathione affinity chromatography and cleaved from GST by factor Xa, the recombinant MTS- alpha B-C was separated from GST and factor Xa by anion exchange chromatography. Recombinant MTS- alpha B-C was characterized by SDS-PAGE and Western immunoblot analysis. The purified MTS- alpha B-C migrated on SDS-PAGE as a single band to an apparent molecular weight (Mr.23kD) that corresponded to total native alpha B-C plus MTS, and was recognized on Western immunoblot by anti-human alpha B-crystallin antibody. MTS- alpha B-C displayed chaperone-like function in an ATP-containing buffer at 37? by disaggregating the denatured and aggregated actin induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 )treatment. It was observed under fluorescence microscope that FITC-labeled MTS- alpha B-C had gone into neonatal rat cardiomyocytes by MTS mediation after the cells were incubated with it for 6 hours while FITC-labeled alpha B-C and bovine serum albumin had not gone into the cells. Recombinant MTS- alpha B-C is not cytotoxic, and MTS- alpha B-C-treated cells displayed increased H2O2-tolerance compared with non-treated cells.

Masterarbeit

description: Für das Schuljahr 2011/12 sprach der Kanton Aargau zusätzliche Mittel für Gemeinden mit erheblichen sozialen Belastungen. Eine Ressource ist der Einsatz von Unterrichtsassistenzen ohne pädagogische Ausbildung. Diese Masterarbeit geht der Frage nach, welchen Einfluss Unterrichtsassistenzen auf die Integration von Kindern mit auffälligem Verhalten haben. Nach einem intensiven Literaturstudium zur Thematik Verhaltensauffälligkeit und einem Exkurs in die Teamteachingforschung resultiert aus der Theorieverknüpfung folgende Hauptforschungsfrage: Inwiefern zeigt der Einsatz einer Unterrichtsassistenz eine positive Wirkung auf Kinder mit auffälligem Verhalten? Diese Frage wird in vier Unterfragen gegliedert. Anhand der ersten Frage wird überprüft, ob sich die Verhaltensprofile von einzelnen Kindern und Jugendlichen über einen definierten Forschungszeitraum, in welcher die Unterrichtsassistenz an der Klasse eingesetzt wird, verändern. Um das Verhalten fassbar zu machen, werden sechs Kategorien erarbeitet, in welchen sich auffälliges Verhalten äussert. Jede Kategorie beinhaltet eine Sammlung von Indikatoren, welche das Benehmen definieren. Die zweite Fragestellung interessiert sich für die konkreten Massnahmen, welche Lehrpersonen und Unterrichtsassistenzen in der täglichen Arbeit mit Kindern mit auffälligem Verhalten anwenden. Weiter richtet sich der Blick auf Kompetenzen, die Lehrpersonen von einer Unterrichtsassistenz fordern. Denn das Anforderungsprofil des Kantons beschränkt sich auf ein Minimum. Abschliessend wird versucht, Grenzen abzustecken, welche bei der Integration von Kindern mit auffälligem Verhalten und dem Einsatz einer Unterrichtsassistenz entstehen. Am Forschungsprojekt nehmen fünf Lehrpersonen vom Kindergarten bis zur neunten Klasse teil. In drei Messpunkten, verteilt über ein knappes Semester, findet mit Hilfe von geschlossenen Fragebogen und problemzentrierten Interviews die Sammlung der Daten statt. Nach den Erhebungen werden die Daten mit qualitativen und quantitativen Verfahren analysiert und ausgewertet. Kategorienraster und Exceltabellen helfen, die Daten übersichtlich darzustellen und die vier Forschungsfragen sowie die Hauptforschungsfrage zu beantworten. Vorwegnehmend kann gesagt werden, dass der Einsatz einer Unterrichtsassistenz bei der Integration von Kindern mit auffälligem Verhalten als Ressource gesehen wird. Sie entlastet eine Lehrperson sowie die ganze Klasse kurzfristig, indem sie das auffällige Verhalten eines Kindes durch ihr Wirken auffängt. Vorausgesetzt sind jedoch Bedingungen, welche auf Seiten aller Beteiligten erfüllt sein müssen, damit die Wirkung der Unterrichtsassistenz Früchte trägt. Eine Diskussion der Ergebnisse und die Erörterung weiterer Forschungsmöglichkeiten runden diese Masterarbeit ab.

description: This book is meant as an introduction to graphene plasmonics and aims at the advanced undergraduate and graduate students entering the field of plasmonics in graphene. In it different theoretical methods are introduced, starting with an elementary description of graphene plasmonics and evolving towards more advanced topics. This book is essentially self-contained and brings together a number of different topics about the field that are scattered in the vast literature. The text is composed of eleven chapters and of a set of detailed appendices. It can be read in two different ways: Reading only the chapters to get acquainted with the field of plasmonics in graphene or reading the chapters and studying the appendices to get a working knowledge of the topic. The study of the material in this book will bring the students to the forefront of the research in this field.

description: We perform three-dimensional numerical relativity simulations of homogeneous and inhomogeneous expanding spacetimes, with a view towards quantifying non-linear effects from cosmological inhomogeneities. We demonstrate fourth-order convergence with errors less than one part in 10^6 in evolving a flat, dust Friedmann-Lemaitre-Roberston-Walker (FLRW) spacetime using the Einstein Toolkit within the Cactus framework. We also demonstrate agreement to within one part in 10^3 between the numerical relativity solution and the linear solution for density, velocity and metric perturbations in the Hubble flow over a factor of ~350 change in scale factor (redshift). We simulate the growth of linear perturbations into the non-linear regime, where effects such as gravitational slip and tensor perturbations appear. We therefore show that numerical relativity is a viable tool for investigating nonlinear effects in cosmology.

Bayesian selection for the l2-Potts model regularization parameter: 1D piecewise constant signal denoising

description: Piecewise constant denoising can be solved either by deterministic optimization approaches, based on the Potts model, or by stochastic Bayesian procedures. The former lead to low computational time but require the selection of a regularization parameter, whose value significantly impacts the achieved solution, and whose automated selection remains an involved and challenging problem. Conversely, fully Bayesian formalisms encapsulate the regularization parameter selection into hierarchical models, at the price of high computational costs. This contribution proposes an operational strategy that combines hierarchical Bayesian and Potts model formulations, with the double aim of automatically tuning the regularization parameter and of maintaining computational effciency. The proposed procedure relies on formally connecting a Bayesian framework to a l2-Potts functional. Behaviors and performance for the proposed piecewise constant denoising and regularization parameter tuning techniques are studied qualitatively and assessed quantitatively, and shown to compare favorably against those of a fully Bayesian hierarchical procedure, both in accuracy and in computational load.
