description: WaterLOGSY is a sensitive ligand-observed NMR experiment for detection of interaction between a ligand and a protein and is now well-established as a screening technique for fragment-based lead discovery. Here we develop and assess a protocol to derive ligand epitope mapping from WaterLOGSY data and demonstrate its general applicability in studies of fragment-sized ligands binding to six different proteins (glycogen phosphorylase, protein peroxiredoxin 5, Bcl-xL, Mcl-1, HSP90, and human serum albumin). We compare the WaterLOGSY results to those obtained from the more widely used saturation transfer difference experiments and to the 3D structures of the complexes when available. In addition, we evaluate the impact of ligand labile protons on the WaterLOGSY data. Our results demonstrate that the WaterLOGSY experiment can be used as an additional confirmation of the binding mode of a ligand to a protein.

description: This study investigated the level of dissolved heavy metals in the water of Longhu Lake and focused on the speciation, mobility, and risks of heavy metals (Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb) in sediment. The levels of heavy metals in the water were found to be below the thresholds set by the Chinese safe drinking water standard. The highest average percentages of Cr, Ni, Zn, and As were bound with residual fractions, while Pb and Cu were bound with reducible fractions. Additionally, the highest percentage of Cd and Mn was bound to the acid-soluble fraction in the sediment. These findings suggest that Cd, Mn, Pb, and Cu likely originated from anthropogenic sources in the lake. There was a strong correlation between total organic carbon (TOC) and metal fractions in the sediment, indicating that TOC may play a role in transporting heavy metal fractions. Risk assessment code values for Cd and Mn indicated higher risks and mobility, while Ni, Cu, and Zn showed medium risks and mobility for aquatic biota. To mitigate heavy metal contamination, it is recommended to improve monitoring and regulation of urban runoff and inlet areas.
A unified Eulerian framework for multimaterial continuum mechanics

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Computational Physics (physics.comp-ph)

description: A framework for simulating the interactions between multiple different continua is presented. Each constituent material is governed by the same set of equations, differing only in terms of their equations of state and strain dissipation functions. The interfaces between any combination of fluids, solids, and vacuum are handled by a new Riemann Ghost Fluid Method, which is agnostic to the type of material on either side (depending only on the desired boundary conditions). The Godunov-Peshkov-Romenski (GPR) model is used for modeling the continua (having recently been used to solve a range of problems involving Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, and elastic and elastoplastic solids), and this study represents a novel approach for handling multimaterial problems under this model. The resulting framework is simple, yet capable of accurately reproducing a wide range of different physical scenarios. It is demonstrated here to accurately reproduce analytical results for known Riemann problems, and to produce expected results in other cases, including some featuring heat conduction across interfaces, and impact-induced deformation and detonation of combustible materials. The framework thus has the potential to streamline development of simulation software for scenarios involving multiple materials and phases of matter, by reducing the number of different systems of equations that require solvers, and cutting down on the amount of theoretical work required to deal with the interfaces between materials.

description: The electronic properties of pure and As-doped Si nanowires with radii up to 9.53 nm are studied using large scale density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We show that, for the undoped nanowires, the DFT bandgap reduces with increasing diameter and converges to its bulk value, a trend in agreement with experimental data. Moreover, we show that the atoms closest to the surface of the nanowire contribute less to the states near the band edges, when compared with atoms close to the centre; this is shown to be due to differences in Si-Si atomic distances, as well as surface passivation effects. When considering As-doped Si nanowires we show that dopant placement within the nanowire plays an important role in deciding electronic properties. We show that a low velocity band is introduced by As doping, in the gap, but close to the conduction band edge. The dopant location affects the curvature of this band, with the curvature reducing when the dopant is placed closer to the center. We also show that asymmetry of dopant location with the nanowire leads to splitting of the valence band edge.

We show that this control problem is solvable and therefore it is possible to optimize the control. We choose the physically motivated criteria of minimum energy spent in the control, minimum magnitude of the rate of change of the control and a combination of both. We find exact analytical solutions.

description: Labour market policy includes active and passive labour market programmes, aiming to solve different problems. Active labour market programmes assist the unemployed to find jobs and thus return to the labour market. Passive labour market programmes assist the unemployed by providing various kinds of aid, easing social tensions. Public work can be considered to be an active labour market programme, assisting people who receive social care with income based on public beneficial work. Consequently, public work is justified by some on the basis that it is purported to have some kind of moral foundation, as well as because it supposedly shows results within a short time. Yet, the rationale behind using public work programmes to fight unemployment is contested. Detractors see them as being rather costly, questioning their success and arguing that their overall results are uncertain, especially in the long run. In short, there are in fact pros and cons to using public work, with opinions being rather divisive. This study summarises these pros and cons, analysing the relevant international and Hungarian literatures in the context of active labour market programmes.

The Pulse of Policy: Mapping Movement in the Australian Indigenous Policy World

description: A “policy world” is a complex and messy assemblage of peoples, places, events, processes, procedures, discourses and artefacts (Shore and Wright 2011). In this thesis I explore aspects of the intercultural world of Australian Indigenous policy by locating and following its “pulse” (Stoler 2009). A policy’s pulse is defined as the ways and means by which that policy moves in and through the policy world assemblage. In this thesis, I track this policy via an analysis of parliamentary articulations of Aboriginality and an examination of the self-governed presentations of three bureaucratic subjectivities who participate in Indigenous Affairs. The journey begins in Canberra, Australia’s capital city, in the chambers of the House of Representatives and the Senate where I analyse the speech acts of parliamentarians. I identify the production of a particular “Regime of Truth” (Foucault [1977] 1980a) that frames Indigenous problems, articulates imagined solutions and presents the ideal Indigenous subjectivity. Significantly, the Regime of Truth is constructed through parliamentarians’ personal narratives about interactions with, and knowledge about, Indigenous people. The thesis then turns to investigate the routine, ordinary and everyday activities of three groups of bureaucrats: senior public servants of Commonwealth departments and agencies who appear before Senate Estimate committees; employees of the Commonwealth Ombudsman who investigate complaints about government administration and conduct outreach complaint clinics to remote Indigenous communities; and Resident Service Providers who are the street-level bureaucrats (Lipsky 1980) (teachers, police officers and nurses) working and residing in remote communities. I argue that certain documents and discourses are vital to the way these bureaucrats present themselves in policy spaces, enact policy processes and interact with Indigenous people. Further, by following the pulse of Indigenous policy I demonstrate how the political and bureaucratic figures examined in this thesis interact with and perpetuate forms of knowledge about Aboriginal people. Each figure presents this knowledge in different ways which, to varying degrees, impacts upon wider policy processes. This variety of perspectives of knowledge is mobilised in the concluding chapter where I draw the seemingly disparate political and bureaucratic actors and locations of the policy world together. Ultimately, I argue that tracing the pulse of policy from conception in Canberra through to application in remote Indigenous communities in the Northern Territory is a step towards understanding the “cultural borderlands” of the Indigenous policy world; “the arenas of interaction and interchange” between Indigenous people, politicians and bureaucrats (Cowlishaw 2003: 11) and the entanglements between forms of knowledge, truth and governance.

description: This thesis presents the results of an investigation of chrysocolla flotation using n-octanohydroxamate collector. The complex formation and bonding behaviour of copper (II) hydroxamate and iron (III) hydroxamate were investigated. Acid-base titration analyses indicated that copper acetohydroxamate and copper octanohydroxamate complexes formed with a 1: 1 (copper: hydroxamate) stoichiometry. Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) analyses were in agreement with the result. For the copper benzohydroxamate complex, acid-base titration analyses indicated a 1: 2 (copper: hydroxamate) stoichiometry. AAS analyses confirmed the stoichiometric ratio of 1: 2 (copper: hydroxamate). Raman and FTIR analyses were consistent with the results from the titration and AAS analyses. Iron (III) complexes with acetohydroxamate, benzohydroxamate and n-octanohydroxamate were characterised by using acid-base titrations. The titration graph results from the three complexes indicated a 1: 3 (iron: hydroxamate) stoichiometry. AAS analyses indicated the same result. Raman and FTIR analyses exhibited the molecular structure which supported a 1: 3 (iron: hydroxamate) stoichiometry.

description: Within the DWBA framework, we develop a theoretical description of single and double heavy ion charge exchange (CE) reactions. We show that absorption effects are particularly important for heavy ion reactions, leading to a noticeable reduction of the CE cross sections. At low momentum transfer, the single CE cross section can be factorised, thus allowing to evaluate corresponding distortion factors and access beta decay strengths. Applications are shown for a system of experimental interest. Preliminary results are discussed also for double CE reactions, modeled as a two-step mechanisms, i.e. a sequence of two charge-changing processes.

description: Objective: We report the characterization of MCLA-117, a novel T cell-redirecting antibody for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) treatment targeting CD3 on T cells and CLEC12A on leukaemic cells. In AML, CLEC12A is expressed on blasts and leukaemic stem cells. Methods: The functional capacity of MCLA-117 to redirect resting T cells to eradicate CLEC12APOS tumor cells was studied using human samples, including primary AML samples. Results: Within the normal hematopoietic compartment, MCLA-117 binds to cells expressing CD3 and CLEC12A but not to early myeloid progenitors or hematopoietic stem cells. MCLA-117 induces T cell activation (EC50 = 44 ng/mL), T cell proliferation, mild pro-inflammatory cytokine release, and redirects T cells to lyse CLEC12APOS target cells (EC50 = 68 ng/mL). MCLA-117-induced targeting of normal CD34POS cells co-cultured with T cells spares erythrocyte and megakaryocyte differentiation as well as preserves mono-myelocytic lineage development. In primary AML patient samples with autologous T cells, MCLA-117 robustly induced AML blast killing (23–98%) at low effector-to-target ratios (1:3–1:97). Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that MCLA-117 efficiently redirects T cells to kill tumour cells while sparing the potential of the bone marrow to develop the full hematological compartment and support further clinical evaluation as a potentially potent treatment option for AML.

description: The apparel (garment or clothing) industry is probably the most important globalized industry in many developing economies due to its immense positive impact on economic growth through export revenues. The sector is also viewed as an entry into formal employment for the unskilled, uneducated and the poor workforce, particularly for women, because of its relatively low-technology and high labour-intensive nature. Therefore, the apparel industry is considered essential for the socio-economic development of many developing countries. Considering the increasing importance of the apparel industry, this thesis is undertaken to investigate four inter-connected aspects on the development of the apparel industry that are unexplored in the literature. Part 1 of the thesis deals with the determinants of apparel exports at firm-level during the post Multi-Fibre Arrangements (MFA) period (2005 − 2014). It was widely predicted that the MFA abolition would cause a decline in the apparel exports of some vulnerable developing countries such as Bangladesh, the Philippines, and Vietnam because these countries may not be able to compete with China and India in the post-MFA free-competition markets. However, performance in the post-MFA shows that some developing countries such as Bangladesh and Vietnam managed to sustain growth, while some other countries such as the Philippines and Mexico experienced a decline in apparel exports.

The magnetron sputtered Co$_2$MnGa films are $L$$2_{\mathrm {1}}$-ordered showing very good heteroepitaxy and a strain-induced tetragonal distortion. The anomalous Hall conductivity was found to be maximum at a value of 1138 S/cm, with a corresponding anomalous Hall angle of 13 %, which is comparatively larger than topologically trivial metals. There is a good agreement between the theoretical calculations and the Hall conductivity observed for the 80 nm film, which suggest that the effect is intrinsic. Thus, the Co$_2$MnGa compound manifests as a promising material towards topologically-driven spintronic applications.

description: Earth science observations are crucial for our understanding of the Earth’s climate, water cycle, land, and atmosphere. Signals of Opportunity (SoOp) has recently emerged as an innovative method for producing these observations. SoOp reuses existing satellite communication signals for science measurements. A key factor in the accuracy of SoOp measurements, is the accuracy with which the transmitting satellite’s position can be determined. This thesis developed a distributed network of receivers, which performed time delay of arrival (TDOA) measurements, to solve for the position of a transmitting satellite, using their existing signals. These results were used to characterize the sensitivity of the calculated satellite position, to the TDOA measurement error.

description: This paper describes a THz transmission spectrometer for the spectral range of 2-65 cm^-1 (100 GHz to 2 THz) with a spectral resolution of at least 1.8 cm^-1 (50 GHz) where the source, sample, and detector are all fully contained in a cryogenic environment. Cyclotron emission from a two-dimensional electron gas heated with an electrical current serves as a magnetic field tunable source. The spectrometer is demonstrated at 4.2 K by measuring the resonant cyclotron absorption of a second two dimensional electron gas. Unique aspects of the spectrometer are that 1) an ultra-broadband detector is used and 2) the emitter is run quasi-continuously with a chopping frequency of only 1 Hz. Since optical coupling to room temperature components is not necessary, this technique is compatible with ultra-low temperature (sub 100 mK) operation.

description: The Quick, Draw! Dataset is a Google dataset with a collection of 50 million drawings, divided in 345 categories, collected from the users of the game Quick, Draw!. In contrast with most of the existing image datasets, in the Quick, Draw! Dataset, drawings are stored as time series of pencil positions instead of a bitmap matrix composed by pixels. This aspect makes this dataset the largest doodle dataset available at the time. The Quick, Draw! Dataset is presented as a great opportunity to researchers for developing and studying machine learning techniques. Due to the size of this dataset and the nature of its source, there is a scarce of information about the quality of the drawings contained. In this paper, a statistical analysis of three of the classes contained in the Quick, Draw! Dataset is depicted: mountain, book and whale. The goal is to give to the reader a first impression of the data collected in this dataset. For the analysis of the quality of the drawings, a Classification Neural Network was trained to obtain a classification score. Using this classification score and the parameters provided by the dataset, a statistical analysis of the quality and nature of the drawings contained in this dataset is provided.

description: Almost half of all children on the autism spectrum experience school refusal (Totsika et al., 2020), yet very little is known about the presentation of school refusal, the way families support their children, and the impact of this upon families. In this study, seven mothers of children on the autism spectrum with school refusal participated in semistructured interviews exploring the behavioural presentations of school refusal and their experiences supporting their child. Directed content analysis was used to analyse the way school refusal presentations align with neurotypical school refusal presentations; inductive content analysis was used to explore the consequences and impact of school refusal for families. Results showed that children demonstrated heterogenous presentations of school refusal, between 10 and 30 unique behaviours in six of the seven categories of the continuum of school refusal behaviour in youth (Kearney, 2001). Many behaviours may not be recorded in attendance data, such as physical school attendance with psychological avoidance. Participants experienced reduced capacity to work and negative impacts on their mental wellbeing, as well as changes to parent-school connections and parenting strategies as a result of school refusal. This is the first study to qualitatively explore the presentation and impact of school refusal in children on the autism spectrum. Findings will be important for planning future research directions and supporting children on the autism spectrum with school refusal and their families.

From independence to Hindraf : the Malaysian Indian community and the negotiation for minority rights

description: The Hindraf (Hindu Rights Action Force) Rally in November 2007 drew unprecedented global media attention upon the Indian community in Malaysia and its plight as a marginalised community for the past 50 years since Independence. The fact that the Hindraf leaders were petitioning the Queen of England to have their plight redressed metaphorically and actually demonstrates that the Indians understood the colonial era and the moment of Independence from the Empire as the point of genesis for their suffering. Analysts have accurately noted that the class action suit was a ploy for the group advocating Hindu Indians Rights in Malaysia to embarrass the incumbent UMNO-Ied Malaysian government. As civic space in Malaysia continued to narrow for non-Malay-Muslim minorities over the last fifty years beginning from the social bargain at independence to the NEP (affirmative action) to rising Islamisation, Indians, like other minorities, began to feel increasingly pressured by a lack of opportunities and freedom to practise their culture and religion. The Hindraf Rally in 2007 instigated my research in this area to understand the problems the Indians in Malaysia have endured and how Indian leadership and organisations over a span of 50 years have handled these problems. I undertook fieldwork in Malaysia from August 2009 to July 2010, interviewing journalists, prominent members of the Indian community, doing archival research and just talking and interacting with Malaysian Indians to understand the situation. The fact that Indians led by Hindraf lawyers were leading a protest in 2007, 50 years after Independence, suggests that Indian leaders and their organsiations had been inept in the management and problem solving approaches against the backdrop of a state that was adamant to preserve the rights of only one ethnic group above all others. This thesis charts the history of the Malaysian Indian community through its organisations and leadership to understand the text and context of the Malaysian Indian predicament as a marginalised minority to track a slow, haphazard road to the Hindraf Rally. It aims to understand how and why the Hindraf Rally of November 2007 occured and what it was a culmination of.

description: Morphological features of metal (hydr)oxide (MO) particles supported on activated carbon (AC) largely influence the performance of these composite materials in most of their applications, particularly in heterogeneous catalysis. Furthermore, the MO precursor as well as the preparation method and conditions strongly determine these morphological features. Thus, the present work is aimed at shedding light on the role of the precursor chemistry on the surface morphology of a series of AC-MO composites prepared by wet impregnation of a commercial AC with Al(NO3)3, Fe(NO3)3, and Zn(NO3)2 in aqueous solution. These materials are characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The microstructure, morphology, size distribution and degree of dispersion of the supported MO (nano)particles strongly depend on the chemical transformations undergone by the precursors not only in the impregnation solutions after their contact with AC but also during the oven-drying step. Al3+, Fe3+ and Zn2+ species in aqueous medium are involved in hydrolysis and polymerization processes, which notably modify the pH of the starting precursor solutions. Upon their contact with AC, pH markedly increases due to the strong basic character of the carbon surface (pHpzc ≈ 10.50), leading to the precipitation of the metal hydroxides or oxyhydroxides. Both supported bayerite (α-Al(OH)3) and goethite (α-FeO(OH)) are essentially amorphous; however, the former grows in micrometric particles while the latter does as nanoparticles. By contrast, the higher crystallinity and larger particle size of supported wülfingite (ε-Zn(OH)2) are connected with an additional transformation of the as-precipitated amorphous hydroxide during the heating step at 120 °C.

description: Coatings of (Al1-xVx)2O3, with x ranging from 0 to 1, were deposited by pulsed DC reactive sputter deposition on Si(100) at a temperature of 550 °C. XRD showed three different crystal structures depending on V-metal fraction in the coating: α-V2O3 rhombohedral structure for 100 at.% V, a defect spinel structure for the intermediate region, 63 - 42 at.% V. At lower V-content, 18 and 7 at.%, a gamma-alumina-like solid solution was observed, shifted to larger d-spacing compared to pure γ-Al2O3. The microstructure changes from large columnar faceted grains for α-V2O3 to smaller equiaxed grains when lowering the vanadium content toward pure γ-Al2O3. Annealing in air resulted in formation of V2O5 crystals on the surface of the coating after annealing to 500 °C for 42 at.% V and 700 °C for 18 at.% V metal fraction respectively. The highest thermal stability was shown for pure γ-Al2O3-coating, which transformed to α-Al2O3 after annealing to 1100° C. Highest hardness was observed for the Al-rich oxides, ~24 GPa. The latter decreased with increasing V-content, larger than 7 at.% V metal fraction. The measured hardness after annealing in air decreased in conjunction with the onset of further oxidation of the coatings.

description: We propose to use the complex quantum dynamics of a massive particle in a non-quadratic potential to reconstruct an initial unknown motional quantum state. We theoretically show that the reconstruction can be efficiently done by measuring the mean value and the variance of the position quantum operator at different instances of time in a quartic potential. We train a neural network to successfully solve this hard regression problem. We discuss the experimental feasibility of the method by analyzing the impact of decoherence and uncertainties in the potential.
