description: Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for all 15- to 20-year-olds. In 2014, there were 1,717 young drivers (15 to 20 years old) who died in motor vehicle crashes. In 2014, even though it was illegal for drivers under age 21 to operate a vehicle with any detectable amount of alcohol in their system in every State in the United States, 26 percent of the young drivers who were killed in crashes had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .01 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or higher; 81 percent of those young drivers had a BAC of .08 or higher - the illegal per se limit for adults age 21 and older in every State in the United States. Ignition interlock devices have been used for more than 25 years as a sanction, typically for DWI offenders. The devices are effective in decreasing a driver’s drinking and driving trips while in use on a vehicle. As of March 2017, 28 States and the District of Columbia require interlocks on the vehicles of all offenders, including first-time offenders. Ignition interlocks, in effect, provide protection for drivers who might otherwise show poor judgment about driving after drinking. They prevent the operation of a vehicle if drivers exceed a set breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) level of alcohol in their system. Parents may be interested in ignition interlocks for their young drivers to prevent driving after drinking any amount of alcohol.

Ionization and charge migration through strong internal fields in clusters exposed to intense X-ray pulses

description: A general scenario for electronic charge migration in finite samples illuminated by an intense laser pulse is given. Microscopic calculations for neon clusters under strong short pulses as produced by X-ray free-electron laser sources confirm this scenario and point to the prominent role of field ionization by strong internal fields. The latter leads to the fast formation of a core-shell system with an almost static core of screened ions while the outer shell explodes. Substituting the shell ions with a different material such as helium as a sacrificial layer leads to a substantial improvement of the diffraction image for the embedded cluster thus reducing the consequences of radiation damage for coherent diffractive imaging.

Effect of strain rate and structure on the development of cohesion and friction in a sensitive clay
Creators: name: Gupta, Ramesh Chandra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The study was undertaken to investigate the effects of rate of strain and structure on the development of true cohesion and true friction in a saturated cohesive soil. The soil investigated was a locally available sensitive clay. The various methods proposed by different investigators to measure true cohesion and true friction are reviewed. After some trials the method adopted was that proposed by Bishop (1962) in which over-consolidation is used to obtain samples at the same void ratio but different initial effective stress. All samples were tested in undrained triaxial compression. To investigate the effects of rate of strain on the development of true cohesion and true friction, the results were compared for two identical sets of samples tested at two significantly different strain rates. To investigate the effects of structure on the development of true cohesion and true friction, a technique was developed to remold the specimens in place at constant void ratio after they had been sheared in the undisturbed state. Remolding has the effect of breaking-down the structure of a sensitive undisturbed clay. The test results from undisturbed and remolded samples were compared. In general the investigation showed that in the undisturbed clay the strength in terms of maximum (Ϭ₁-Ϭ₃) decreased with decreasing strain rate, however, the strength in terms of (Ϭ⁻₁/Ϭ⁻₃) max, was not significantly affected by strain rate when compared on an effective stress basis. In remolded clays there was a tendency for the strength in terms of maximum (Ϭ₁-Ϭ₃) to increase with increasing time to failure. In the undisturbed clay true cohesion developed rapidly at small strains, attained a peak and decreased to zero at large strains. True friction was mobilized slowly and attained a maximum value at large strains. At strains less than 8% both true friction and true, cohesion increased with increasing strain rate. However, at large strains true friction and true cohesion were not affected by strain rate. In the remolded clay true cohesion developed slowly attaining a small but significant value which remained constant with strain. The maximum value of true cohesion in the remolded clay was very much lower than that for the undisturbed clay. The development of true friction with strain was essentially unaffected by remolding and both the undisturbed and remolded clay developed about the same maximum value of true friction at large strains. The observed behaviour was explained in terms of changes in clay structure with strain rate and remolding.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Framework cells and no-bar cells are used for solving plane stress problems by the Finite Element Method of Analysis and the results obtained by using the two types of cells are compared with the elasticity solution in two specific examples. The precision of the Finite Element Method is tested at different values of the Poisson's ratio of the material. The stresses found by the Finite Element Method are calculated in two ways: from the corner forces and the corner displacements, and the quality of the results employing the methods is compared. The precision of the results obtained with the bar cells has been found consistently better than with the no-bar cells. Comparable precision has been observed in the stresses found from the corner forces and the corner displacements.

description: In this paper, we present an exactly solvable phase transition model in which the phase transition is purely statistically derived. The phase transition in this model is a generalized Bose-Einstein condensation. The exact expression of the thermodynamic quantity which can simultaneously describe both gas phase and condensed phase is solved with the help of the homogeneous Riemann-Hilbert problem, so one can judge whether there exists a phase transition and determine the phase transition point mathematically rigorously. A generalized statistics in which the maximum occupation numbers of different quantum states can take on different values is introduced, as a generalization of Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics.

description: Driving-while-impaired (DWI) offenders present a high risk to traffic safety. Alcohol ignition interlocks are now widely used for DWI offenders and can significantly reduce DWI recidivism while on the offender’s vehicle. In a typical year an interlock device can collect and store up to 2,500 breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) tests. This breath-test data collected by the interlock device can then be used to help manage convicted DWI offenders. This descriptive study explores the current use of ignition interlock data for DWI offender monitoring and offender-related programs, such as screening, assessments, and treatment for alcohol abuse problems. It also examines the effectiveness of using the interlock data to reduce alcohol-impaired-driving recidivism. The researcher team collected information from a variety of sources involved with alcohol interlock programs and provide in-depth descriptions for a number of key interlock issues.

description: In this paper, we consider lattice versions of the decomposition of the Yang- Mills field a la Cho-Faddeev-Niemi, which was extended by Kondo, Shinohara and Murakami in the continuum formulation. For the SU(N) gauge group, we propose a set of defining equations for specifying the decomposition of the gauge link variable and solve them exactly without using the ansatz adopted in the previous studies for SU(2) and SU(3). As a result, we obtain the general form of the decomposition for SU(N) gauge link variables and confirm the previous results obtained for SU(2) and SU(3).

description: States use a variety of countermeasures to reduce traffic crashes, injuries, and fatalities within their jurisdictions. These countermeasures focus primarily on engineering, law enforcement, and public education (NHTSA, 2006). NHTSA's bi-annual publication, Countermeasures That Work: A Highway Safety Countermeasure Guide for State Highway Safety Offices (henceforth referred to as Countermeasures That Work or CMTW), documents existing behavioral traffic safety countermeasures and rates countermeasures for demonstrated effectiveness. However, the most effective countermeasures are not adopted or implemented consistently across States. The objective for this study was to identify proven countermeasures that, if adopted, would help States achieve progress “Toward Zero Deaths.”

description: We study axisymmetric mean-field dynamo models containing differential rotation, the $α$ effect and the additional turbulent induction effects. The additional effects result from the combined action of rotation and an inhomogeneity of the large-scale magnetic field. The best known of them is the $\vecΩ\times\vec{J}$ effect. We also include anisotropic diffusion and a new dynamo term which is of third order in the rotation vector $\vecΩ$ The model calculations are carried out using the rotation profile of the Sun as obtained from helioseismic measurements and radial profiles of other quantities according to a standard model of the solar interior. In addition, we consider a dynamo model for a full sphere which is solely based on the joint induction effects of rotation and an inhomogeneity of the large-scale magnetic field, without differential rotation and the $α$ effect (a $δ^{2}$ dynamo model). This kind of dynamo model may be relevant for fully convective stars.

description: Seat belt use in the United States increased steadily in the last decade, but significant variability exists across the States. In 2014, State seat belt use ranged from a low of 68.9 percent to a high of 97.8 percent. Although higher use rates are generally associated with States having primary enforcement seat belt laws, several notable exceptions existed in both directions (primary law States with lower than average use rates and secondary law States with higher than average use rates; Chen, 2015). The same type of variability was seen with respect to belt use among fatally injured motor vehicle occupants. The premise behind this study was the possibility that higher performing States have organizations, strategies, or procedures that are more effective at increasing seat belt use than those employed by the lower performing States. Encouraging States with relatively low use rates to emulate the practices in higher performing States raises the potential for significantly improving nationwide seat-belt-use rates, reducing the number of vehicle occupant deaths and unbelted fatalities. By highlighting programmatic and other performance gaps between these two groups of States, the results from this study have the potential to provide a foundation for future strategic technical assistance initiatives to address these issues.

description: Novel techniques for joining thermoplastic composites and aluminium alloys are critical for underpinning the development of crashworthy and lightweight multi-material automotive structures. Lap bonding interfaces represent a fundamental joint in typical automotive structures. This study investigates the crashworthiness of single-lap, adhesively bonded and interlocked-hybrid composite-metal joints using low-velocity transverse impact tests and post-impact tensile tests. For a more practical estimation of the transverse impact performance of automotive structural joints and as an alternative to widely employed test methods in the literature, viz., fully-supported overlap and unsupported overlap, this work proposes a new transverse impact testing method, employing a partially-supported overlap. Single-lap, baseline adhesive joints (BAJs) and interlocking adhesive joints (IAJs) were impacted at different energy levels on both facets, i.e., one set on the aluminium surface and another on the composite surface. Overall, for similar absorbed energy levels, the IAJs suffer less damage than BAJs. For both IAJs and BAJs, the impact on the composite surface results in a better residual performance relative to the aluminium surface. After 10 J impact, IAJs respectively present up to 114% and 16-times higher lap-shear strength (LSS) and work-to-failure (WF) relative to BAJs. Post 12.5 J impact on the composite surface, IAJs exhibit 100% and 75% retention in LSS and WF, respectively. Damage analysis of the IAJs at the micro and macro scales exhibit minimal impact-induced adhesive damage and shear-dominated debonding, illustrating the effectiveness of interlocking features in minimising peel deformations. Excellent damage tolerance exhibited by the novel IAJs highlight their suitability for crash absorbing multi-material automotive structures.

The interplay of the rocking and the feedback control gives a rich dynamics with different regimes presenting several unexpected novel features. In particular, we show that for both the one-particle ratchet and the collective version of the ratchet an appropriate rocking increases the flux. This mechanism gives the maximum flux that has been achieved in a ratchet device without an a priori bias.

Head losses resulting from flow through wyes and manifolds
Creators: name: Wang, Hua
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the head losses in wyes and manifolds of conventional type, both with and without an internal tie-rod at the theoretical centre of the wye. These wyes and manifolds, having 45°, 60° and 90° subtending angles of the wyes, were symmetrical about the longitudinal axis of the main pipe. The apparatus and method of testing used in the tests are described. The experiment spans a range of Reynold's numbers from 85,000 to 420,000 in the influent main pipe. The analysis of experimental data is based on the energy equation of Bernoulli for the one-dimensional condition. The results of the tests are given in both tabular and graphical form. It appears that the coefficient of the form loss (the ratio of the form loss of a wye or manifold to the velocity head in the main pipe) is a function of the proportional flow of water through the branches, the size of the tie-rod used and the subtending angle of the wye.

description: I make a novel contact between string theory and degenerate fermion dynamics in thin semiconductors. Utilizing AdS/CFT correspondence in string theory and tunability of coupling parameters in condensed matter systems, I focus on the possibilities testing string theory from tabletop experiments. I first discuss the observation that stability of Fermi surface is classifiable according to K-theory. I then elaborate two concrete realization of Fermi surfaces of zero and two dimensions. Both are realized by complex of D3-branes and D7-branes of relative codimension 6 and 4, respectively. The setup with Fermi point models gauge dynamics of multiply stacked graphenes at half-filling. I show that string theory predicts dynamical generation of mass gap and metal-insulator quantum phase transition at zero temperature. I emphasize that conformally invariant gauge theory dynamics of the setup plays a crucial role, leading to novel conformal phase transition. The setup with Fermi surface is in collaboration with Dongsu Bak and is based on charged black hole and models relativistic Fermi liquid. We find positive evidence for this identification from both equilibrium thermodynamics at or near zero temperature and out-of-equilibrium linear response and transport properties. I argue that fluctuation of black hole horizon provides holographic realization consistent with Fermi liquid for thermodynamics and interesting departures therefrom in transport properties.

description: We discuss connecting tables with zero-one entries by a subset of a Markov basis. In this paper, as a Markov basis we consider the Graver basis, which corresponds to the unique minimal Markov basis for the Lawrence lifting of the original configuration. Since the Graver basis tends to be large, it is of interest to clarify conditions such that a subset of the Graver basis, in particular a minimal Markov basis itself, connects tables with zero-one entries. We give some theoretical results on the connectivity of tables with zero-one entries. We also study some common models, where a minimal Markov basis for tables without the zero-one restriction does not connect tables with zero-one entries.

description: We report 7Li NMR studies of single crystals of triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet Li7RuO6. Slow critical divergence with a wide critical region of |T/TN - 1|< 7 was observed in 7Li nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate. The slowing down of staggered spin fluctuations was analyzed in a renormalized classical region of a two-dimensional triangular-lattice non-linear sigma model. A spin stiffness constant was found to reduce to about 20 % from the value in a spin-wave approximation. The effect of spin frustration, e.g., Z2 vortex excitations on the critical phenomena is suggested.

description: Checkpoint operations are highly visible and are often used for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) countermeasure enforcement efforts. However, checkpoints can be resource-intensive, so it is often difficult to generate as much use of that tactic as is desired. There are alternative enforcement methods and tactics to increase the scope of traditional checkpoints. Flexible checkpoints, sometimes referred to as "phantom," "mobile awareness," "public awareness," or "mock" checkpoints, are a lower cost, low-staffing checkpoint method to augment traditional checkpoints. This checkpoint strategy involves staging-but not fully staffing-the checkpoint. Instead, the appearance of setting up a checkpoint is created with, for example, a small number of officers setting out signs, and parking one or more patrol vehicles with flashing lights and a mobile breath testing facility or other DWI enforcement vehicle on the side of the road. The "checkpoint" can then be moved to other locations during the evening. No drivers are stopped and no arrests are made, unless some provocation occurs by drivers passing by the flexible checkpoint. However, a main objective of a checkpoint-awareness-is accomplished by the number of drivers observing and, in theory, telling others about the law enforcement activity. Flexible checkpoints, however, should not be used in isolation. Instead, they should be used to supplement other DWI enforcement countermeasure activity employed in the jurisdiction, either concurrently, or within a short period of time of those other activities. The main objectives for this project were to: - Determine the extent that flexible checkpoints are being used in the United States; - Identify four agencies that use flexible checkpoints, document problems or concerns that have arisen in those agencies, and to determine and document any solutions developed that could be used by other interested agencies that may want to implement flexible checkpoints; and - Conduct a study to determine the effectiveness of flexible checkpoints in one site.

Quasiparticle and quasihole states of nuclei around 56Ni

description: The single-particle spectral function of 56Ni has been computed within the framework of self-consistent Green's functions theory. The Faddeev random phase approximation method and the G-matrix technique are used to account for the effects of long- and short-range physics on the spectral distribution. Large scale calculations have been performed in spaces including up to ten oscillator shells. The chiral N3LO interaction is used together with a monopole correction that accounts for eventual missing three-nucleon forces. The single-particle energies associated with nucleon transfer to valence 1p0f orbits are found to be almost converged with respect to both the size of the model space and the oscillator frequency. The results support that 56Ni is a good doubly magic nucleus. The absolute spectroscopic factors to the valence states on A=55,57 are also obtained. For the transition between the ground states of 57Ni and 56Ni, the calculations nicely agree with heavy-ion knockout experiments.

The use of air bubblers to prevent shoaling at wharves in navigable rivers

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The Fraser-Surrey Wharf, situated on the left bank of the Main Arm of the Fraser River just downstream of New Westminster, B.C., has been subject to severe shoaling during annual freshets, ever since its construction in 1926. This has seriously hampered shipping and caused a loss in revenue. In the summer of 1965, Professor E. S. Pretious of the Civil Engineering Department, the University of British Columbia, was approached by the Fraser River Harbour Commissioners (owners of the wharf) to investigate the feasibility of employing air-bubblers to prevent shoaling in the approaches to the wharf. The project study was chosen as a thesis topic by the author, under the supervision of Professor Pretious. The research which was subsequently undertaken involved the theory underlying the interaction between air-bubbles and water; laboratory experiments to measure upward water velocities induced by rising air-bubbles; settling velocities of the bed-sand found in front of the wharf, and the critical tractive shear stresses for impending motion of the bed material. In the field, the hydraulic slopes of the water surface at the wharf was measured to determine if the conditions for bed-load movement existed; river current velocities were measured (surface and sub-surface); weekly, controlled, sounding surveys were carried out in addition to a number of sediment sampling surveys and float studies, to determine flow patterns. Bubbler hoses were designed and prepared in the Hydraulics Laboratory of the University of British Columbia and subsequently installed at the wharf. They were kept operating throughout the major part of the 1966 freshet (May, June, July). Recommendations for improved designs and further research are also made.
Analysis of transport properties of iron pnictides: spin-fluctuation scenario

description: We present a phenomenological theory of quasiparticle scattering and transport relaxation in the normal state of iron pnictides based on the simplified two-band model coupled via spin fluctuations. In analogy with anomalous properties of cuprates it is shown that a large and anomalous normal-state resistivity and thermopower can be interpreted as the consequence of strong coupling to spin fluctuations. The generalization to the superconducting phase is also discussed.

description: Der Feld Personal Digital Archiving bietet eine Möglichkeit für Archive, wird in Deutschland jedoch nur von der AG PDA des nestor-Verbundsnetzwerks bearbeitet. In der Bachelorarbeit von Elena Langner werden die Bildungsangebote in Archiven aus allen 16 Landesarchiven sowie aus acht Archiven aus Brandenburg und Mecklenburg-Vorpommern untersucht und ausgewertet. Das Ergebnis zeigt, keines der 24 Archive hat ein PDA-Angebot und gibt die eigenen Fachkenntnisse an Interessierte weiter. Jedoch sind Grundlagen in den meisten untersuchten Archiven vorhanden, auf denen ein PDA-Angebot aufgebaut werden kann – um, potenziell, das zukünftige persönliche digitale kulturelle Erbe zu retten. In der Arbeit werden als Ergebnis einfache bis schwierige Maßnahmen für Archive beschrieben, die Angebote ans Archiv knüpfen können. Archive könnten durch ein PDA-Angebot neue Interessengruppen anwerben, die über Nutzer*innen hinweg, sich mit dem Archiv und seiner Fachkenntnisse auseinandersetzen wollen.
Quantum squeezing generation versus photon localization in a disordered microcavity

description: We investigate theoretically the nonlinear dynamics induced by an intense pump field in a disordered planar microcavity. Through a self-consistent theory, we show how the generation of quantum optical noise squeezing is affected by the breaking of the in-plane translational invariance and the occurrence of photon localization. We find that the generation of single-mode Kerr squeezing for the ideal planar case can be prevented by disorder as a result of multimode nonlinear coupling, even when the other modes are in the vacuum state. However, the excess noise is a non-monotonous function of the disorder amplitude. In the strong localization limit, we show that the system becomes protected with respect to this fundamental coupling mechanism and that the ideal quadrature squeezing generation can be obtained.
