description: This paper presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation on a novel liner concept for enhanced low-frequency and broadband acoustic attenuation. In particular, two different realizations, derived from conventional Helmholtz resonators (HR) and plate resonators (PR) are investigated, which both deploy flexible materials with material inherent damping. In this context, a comprehensive experimental investigation was carried out focusing the identification and evaluation of various geometric parameters and material properties on the acoustics dissipation and related properties of various materials in a simplified setup of a single Helmholtz resonator with flexible walls (FHR concept). Furthermore, a parameter study based on analytical models was performed for both liner concepts, taking into account material as well as geometric parameters and their effects on transmission loss. In addition, design concepts that enable cylindrical or otherwise curved liner structures and the corresponding manufacturing technologies are presented, while considering essential structural features such as drainage. With respect to the potential application in jet engines, a structural–mechanical analysis considering the relevant load cases to compare and discuss the mechanical performance of a classical HR and the FHR concept liner is presented. Finally, both concepts are evaluated and possible challenges and potentials for further implementation are described.

description: The angular distributions for elastic scattering and breakup of halo nuclei are analysed using a near-side/far-side decomposition within the framework of the dynamical eikonal approximation. This analysis is performed for 11Be impinging on Pb at 69AMeV. These distributions exhibit very similar features. In particular they are both near-side dominated, as expected from Coulomb-dominated reactions. The general shape of these distributions is sensitive mostly to the projectile-target interactions, but is also affected by the extension of the halo. This suggests that the link between elastic scattering and a possible loss of flux towards the breakup channel is not obvious.

description: Recent LHC searches have provided strong evidence for the Higgs, a boson whose gauge quantum numbers coincide with those of a SM fermion, the neutrino. This raises the mandatory question of whether Higgs and neutrino can be related by supersymmetry. We study this possibility in a model in which an approximate R-symmetry acts as a lepton number. We show that Higgs physics resembles that of the SM-Higgs with the exception of a novel invisible decay into Goldstino and neutrino with a branching fraction that can be as large as ~10%. Based on naturalness criteria, only stops and sbottoms are required to be lighter than the TeV with a phenomenology dictated by the R-symmetry. They have novel decays into quarks+leptons that could be seen at the LHC, allowing to distinguish these scenarios from the ordinary MSSM.

description: Astrophotonics is the application of photonic technologies to channel, manipulate, and disperse light from one or more telescopes to achieve scientific objectives in astronomy in an efficient and cost-effective way. Utilizing photonic advantage for astronomical spectroscopy is a promising approach to miniaturizing the next generation of spectrometers for large telescopes. It can be primarily attained by leveraging the two-dimensional nature of photonic structures on a chip or a set of fibers, thus reducing the size of spectroscopic instrumentation to a few centimeters and the weight to a few hundred grams. A wide variety of astrophotonic spectrometers is currently being developed, including arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs), photonic echelle gratings (PEGs), and Fourier-transform spectrometer (FTS). These astrophotonic devices are flexible, cheaper to mass produce, easier to control, and much less susceptible to vibrations and flexure than conventional astronomical spectrographs. The applications of these spectrographs range from astronomy to biomedical analysis. This paper provides a brief review of this new class of astronomical spectrographs.

description: A three-dimensional model of the far turbulent wake behind a self-propelled body in a passively stratified medium is considered. The model is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations by a similarity reduction and the B-determining equations method.

description: We introduce a discrete linear lossy system with an embedded "hot spot" (HS), i.e., a site carrying linear gain and complex cubic nonlinearity. The system can be used to model an array of optical or plasmonic waveguides, where selective excitation of particular cores is possible. Localized modes pinned to the HS are constructed in an implicit analytical form, and their stability is investigated numerically. Stability regions for the modes are obtained in the parameter space of the linear gain and cubic gain/loss. An essential result is that the interaction of the unsaturated cubic gain and self-defocusing nonlinearity can produce stable modes, although they may be destabilized by finite amplitude perturbations. On the other hand, the interplay of the cubic loss and self-defocusing gives rise to a bistability.

Publisher: name: Oxford Brookes University

description: It has been established that family centred care is important in children’s nursing. Commitment to Family Centred care means respecting family diversity, and encouraging family to collaborate and participate in the child’s care where safely possible (Institute for Patient and Family Centred Care, 2017). Methodology: A literature review was undertaken systematically to explore how childhood cancer impacted the parents’ relationship. Following a process of considering papers against inclusion-exclusion criteria, 8 research papers were identified for review. These were critically appraised using McMaster’s Quantitative and Qualitative critical appraisal tools. Findings: It has identified that having a child undergoing cancer treatment had positive and negative impacts on the marital satisfaction within the parents’ relationship. One of the biggest changes in the parents’ lifestyle was the need to change the parental roles, with one parent being the typical caregiver for the child with cancer, and the other parent being responsible for looking after the household, and any finances. These changes later impacted the parents’ time spent together and on the quality of their intimacy and sexual relationship. Conclusion: This literature review has found both positive and negative changes in the parents’ relationship. Future research needs to explore the impact of childhood cancer on parents of the same sex and families with step-parents. Changes should be made to guide health care professionals to promote and encourage parents to express their feelings, seek mutual support and establish a partnership in dealing with the child’s illness.
Propagation Mechanism of Brittle Cracks

description: We employ a recently developed model that allows the study of two-dimensional brittle crack propagation under fixed grip boundary conditions. The crack development highlights the importance of voids which appear ahead of the crack as observed in experiments on the nano-scale. The appearance of these voids is responsible for roughening the crack path on small scales, in agreement with theoretical expectations. With increasing speed of propagation one observes the branching instabilities that were reported in experiments. The simulations allow understanding the phenomena by analyzing the elastic stress field that accompanies the crack dynamics.

title: A Paleomagnetic Reconnaissance of the Platoro Caldera, Southeastern San Juan Mountains, Colorado
Creators: name: Diehl, Jimmy F.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1972

description:
Paleomagnetic results have been obtained from twenty-five sites in intrusive and extrusive units of Oligocene age from the Platoro caldera, southwestern Colorado, All specimens from each site were subjected to af demagnetization, and the reliability of each site thereby determined. Eighteen sites gave reliable results. Because six sites from the La Jara Canyon tuff appear to have become magnetized during the same small interval of geologic time, their results were combined and their mean pole and direction used in the final calculations. The thirteen remaining reliable sites yielded a paleomagnetic pole at 84.5°N and 306.5°E (o< = 12.9°, k = 11.2). Site-mean directions have an angular standard deviation of 18°, which is considerably greater than the dispersion predicted by models based on the present geomagnetic field but consistent with results from Late Tertiary and Quaternary studies. Because site-mean directions and site poles both have Fisherian distribution, it is not possible to determine whether dipole wobble or random fluctuation caused by a changing non-dipole field could be the cause of the geomagnetic secular variation during the Oligocene; probably both contribute. Interpretations based on mid-Tertiary paleomagnetic poles are consistent with those derived from sea-floor magnetic anomaly patterns, and possibly indicate that some true polar wandering has occurred since the mid-Tertiary, Due to lack of resolution in potassium-argon dating, the polarity time-scale constructed from the Platoro caldera units can only be used as a guide for future paleomagnetic work and geological mapping in the area.

description: In this paper, the preliminary design of a space mission is approached introducing uncertainties on the design parameters and formulating the resulting reliable design problem as a multiobjective optimization problem. Uncertainties are modelled through evidence theory and the belief, or credibility, in the successful achievement of mission goals is maximised along with the reliability of constraint satisfaction. The multiobjective optimisation problem is solved through a novel algorithm based on the collaboration of a population of agents in search for the set of highly reliable solutions. Two typical problems in mission analysis are used to illustrate the proposed methodology.
title: Modeling, Design and Fabrication of Biocompatible Silk-Based Electronics and Actuators
Creators: name: Ostrovsky-Snider, Nicholas
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
Biocompatible actuators are widely desired for a variety of biomedical devices such as micromanipulators, steerable catheters and artificial muscles but current devices have shortcomings in the range of motion they can achieve. Biocompatible electrodes made from conducting polymers (CPs) have been successfully created but achieving the spatial patterning of these polymers needed for electronic devices like strain gauges, stimulation electrodes and micro circuitry has been difficult. Previous work has relied on complex chemical incorporation of CPs into photoresists or electropolymerization onto vapor-deposited metal substrates. A simple method to produce metal-free flexible electronics would be highly desirable for biomedical electronics. This work explores the use of photolithography to generate masks that can be used to create conductive CP patterns on the surface of fibroin films with resolution in the tens of microns. This process was used to create uniaxial strain gauges that achieved uniaxial sensitization and superior signal-to-noise over unpatterned films. Drop casting and laser etching were employed to give silk films defined surface topology and the mechanical characteristics and their performance as electrochemical actuators was studied. Electrochemical actuations were not significantly affected by the topological patterns, however the topological films demonstrated a promising ability to self-fold. Simulations of the electrochemical actuations by Finite Element Analysis modeling was made possible by creating an analogy of electrochemical expansion to thermal expansion. Analysis provided insight into previously inconclusive experimental results and suggested a further analogy between potential distribution and thermal distribution that leads to predictive models of both actuation and electrical polymerization.

description: Graphene in spintronics has so far primarily meant spin current leads of high performance because the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling of its pi-electrons is very weak. If a large spin-orbit coupling could be created by a proximity effect, the material could also form active elements of a spintronic device such as the Das-Datta spin field-effect transistor, however, metal interfaces often compromise the band dispersion of massless Dirac fermions. Our measurements show that Au intercalation at the graphene-Ni interface creates a giant spin-orbit splitting (~100 meV) in the graphene Dirac cone up to the Fermi energy. Photoelectron spectroscopy reveals hybridization with Au-5d states as the source for the giant spin-orbit splitting. An ab initio model of the system shows a Rashba-split dispersion with the analytically predicted gapless band topology around the Dirac point of graphene and indicates that a sharp graphene-Au interface at equilibrium distance will account for only ~10 meV spin-orbit splitting. The ab initio calculations suggest an enhancement due to Au atoms that get closer to the graphene and do not violate the sublattice symmetry.

description: This paper presents the Suzaku results obtained for the Sagittarius (Sgr) C region using the concept of X-ray reflection nebulae (XRNe) as the echo of past flares from the super massive black hole, Sgr A*. The Sgr C complex is composed of several molecular clouds proximately located in projected distance. The X-ray spectra of Sgr C were analyzed on the basis of a view that XRNe are located inside the Galactic center plasma X-ray emission with an oval distribution around Sgr A*. We found that the XRNe are largely separated in the line-of-sight position, and are associated with molecular clouds in different velocity ranges detected by radio observations. We also applied the same analysis to the Sgr B XRNe and completed a long-term light curve for Sgr A* occurring in the past. As a new finding, we determined that Sgr A* was experiencing periods of high luminosity already 500 years ago, which is longer than the previously reported value. Our results are consistent with a scenario that Sgr A* was continuously active with sporadic flux variabilities of Lx = 1-3 x 10^39 erg s^-1 in the past 50 to 500 years. The average past luminosity was approximately 4-6 orders of magnitude higher than that presently observed. In addition, two short-term flares of 5-10 years are found. Thus, the past X-ray flare should not be a single short-term flare, but can be interpreted as multiple flares superposed on a long-term high state.

description: The measurement of the nuclear structure function $F_2^A (x,Q^2)$ at the future electron-ion collider (EIC) will be of great relevance to understand the origin of the nuclear shadowing and to probe gluon saturation effects. Currently there are several phenomenological models, based on very distinct approaches, which describe the scarce experimental data quite successfully. One of main uncertainties comes from the schemes used to include the effects associated to the multiple scatterings and to unitarize the cross section. In this paper we compare the predictions of three different unitarization schemes of the nuclear structure function which use the same theoretical input to describe the projectile-nucleon interaction. In particular, we consider as input the predictions of the Color Glass Condensate formalism, which reproduce the inclusive and diffractive $ep$ HERA data. Our results suggest that the experimental analysis of $F_2^A$ will be able to discriminate between the unitarization schemes.

description: Measurements of the optical turbulence profile above Siding Spring Observatory were conducted during 2005 and 2006. This effort was largely motivated by the need to predict the statistical performance of adaptive optics at Siding Spring. The data were collected using a purpose-built instrument based on the slope-detection and ranging method (SLODAR) where observations of a bright double star are imaged by Shack-Hartmann taken with the Australian National University 24 inch and 40 inch telescopes. The analysis of the data yielded a model consisting of a handful of statistically prominent thin layers that are statistically separated into the ground layer (37.5, 250m) and the free atmosphere (1, 3, 6, 9, 13.5 km) for good (25%), typical (50%) and bad (25%) observing conditions. We found that ground-layer turbulence dominates the turbulence profile with up to 80% of the integrated turbulence below 500 m. The turbulence tends to be non-Kolmogorov, especially for the ground-layer with a power law index of $β\sim 10/3$. The mirror/dome seeing can be a significant fraction of the ground-layer turbulence. The median atmospheric seeing, is around 1.2", in agreement with observational reports.

MULTI-ANTENNA FIXED POSITION SYSTEM FOR LESION DETECTION WITHIN PHANTOMS
Creators: name: Pickering, Alistair Iain
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2022

description: This project advances the current capability of using Ultra High Frequency (UHF) antennas to detect dielectric differences within a phantom, as a prerequisite for bone fracture analysis. The following research was conducted to investigate whether the scatter parameter measurements from multiple fixed position antennas could successfully reconstruct images of a phantom with a lesion. An Ultra-WideBand (UWB) Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna (AVA) was designed to transmit frequencies between 1800MHz and 2500MHz with an end fire beam between ϕ= ±4° (confirming the main beam is directed towards the phantom). Simulations and measurements were performed using four antennas, eight antennas and sixteens antennas spaced equally within the system. For each system, three contrasting phantom scenarios were taken, a homogenous phantom, a phantom with the lesion placed at 0°, and then with the lesion placed at 90°. The reconstructed images were analysed, comparing the three tests, and showed that using a sixteen-element system, the lesion position but not size was clearly detectable. These findings confirm that a fixed position system can be used as an alternative to the current process, which then drastically reduces testing times.

Creators: name: Board, Emily
Publisher: name: Oxford Brookes University
Year: 2020

description: In the last 30 years the number of celebrities involved in humanitarian work has increased rapidly. UNICEF has used celebrity Goodwill Ambassadors since 1954 to spread their message and create public awareness of humanitarian crises. However, their impact may not be wholly positive. Celebrities have a soft power which can play a significant role in politics and international relations. Now that the United Nations has over 400 celebrity Goodwill Ambassadors it is essential that we know the impact they have on the humanitarian crises they are publicising. This project uses Critical Discourse Analysis to explore how the language of Goodwill Ambassadors Audrey Hepburn and Millie Bobby Brown conveys the messages of UNICEF and the impact this can have on humanitarian crises. By looking at the speeches and interviews Brown and Hepburn take part in, it is possible to see what discourse they are contributing to. The results suggest that Brown and Hepburn create specific characters that support and justify Western intervention. These characters include themselves as agents of change alongside the ‘suffering other’ and finally UNICEF itself as ‘infallible’. In addition, they normalise humanitarian crises and detach the West from the urgency of the crisis. As a result, unaccountable Western intervention is allowed that may prolong the humanitarian crises. In addition it allows charity work to be equated with entertainment and maintains focus on the celebrity themselves. This project will also suggest that research is necessary to understand how those experiencing humanitarian crises perceive Goodwill Ambassadors.

description: Heterogeneous media constitute random disordered environments where transport is drastically hindered. Employing extensive molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of tracer particles in the Lorentz model in the vicinity of the localization transition. There transport becomes anomalous and non-gaussian due to the presence of self-similar spatial structures, and dynamic scaling behavior is anticipated. The interplay of different time and length scales is revealed by the intermediate scattering functions, which are sensitive both to the underlying spatial fractal as well as the anomalous transport. We compare our numerical results in the transition regime to a mode-coupling approach, and find that certain aspects are surprisingly well predicted.

description: We have studied the variability of PSR J0529-6652, a radio pulsar in the LMC, using observations conducted at 1390 MHz with the Parkes 64-m telescope. PSR J0529-6652 is detectable as a single pulse emitter, with amplitudes that classify the pulses as giant pulses. This makes PSR J0529-6652 the second known giant pulse emitter in the LMC, after PSR B0540-69. The fraction of the emitted pulses detectable from PSR J0529-6652 at this frequency is roughly two orders of magnitude greater than it is for either PSR B0540-69 or the Crab pulsar (if the latter were located in the LMC). We have measured a pulse nulling fraction of 83.3 \pm 1.5% and an intrinsic modulation index of 4.07 \pm 0.29 for PSR J0529-6652. The modulation index is significantly larger than values previously measured for typical radio pulsars but is comparable to values reported for members of several other neutron star classes. The large modulation index, giant pulses, and large nulling fraction suggest that this pulsar is phenomenologically more similar to these other, more variable sources, despite having spin and physical characteristics that are typical of the unrecycled radio pulsar population. The large modulation index also does not appear to be consistent with the small value predicted for this pulsar by a model of polar cap emission outlined by Gil & Sendyk (2000). This conclusion depends to some extent on the assumption that PSR J0529-6652 is exhibiting core emission, as suggested by its simple profile morphology, narrow profile width, and previously measured profile polarization characteristics.

description: Maryland residents’ knowledge of environmental hazards and their health effects is limited, partly due to the absence of tools to map and visualize distribution of risk factors across sociodemographic groups. This study discusses the development of the Maryland EJSCREEN (MD EJSCREEN) tool by the National Center for Smart Growth in partnership with faculty at the University of Maryland School of Public Health. The tool assesses environmental justice risks similarly to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (USEPA) EJSCREEN tool and California’s tool, CalEnviroScreen 3.0. We discuss the architecture and functionality of the tool, indicators of importance, and how it compares to USEPA’s EJSCREEN and CalEnviroScreen. We demonstrate the use of MD EJSCREEN through a case study on Bladensburg, Maryland, a town in Prince George’s County (PG) with several environmental justice concerns including air pollution from traffic and a concrete plant. Comparison reveals that environmental and demographic indicators in MD EJSCREEN most closely resemble those in EPA EJSCREEN, while the scoring is most similar to CalEnviroScreen. Case study results show that Bladensburg has a Prince George’s environmental justice score of 0.99, and that National Air Toxics Assessment (NATA) air toxics cancer risk is concentrated in communities of color.

description: Immersing the brain in a solution containing formaldehyde is a commonly used method for preserving the structure of human brain tissue in brain banking. However, there are questions about the quality of preservation using this method, as formaldehyde takes a relatively long period of time to penetrate a large organ such as the human brain. As a result, there is a critical need to determine whether immersion fixation is an adequate initial preservation method. To address this, we present exploratory histologic findings from our brain bank following the immersion fixation of hemi-sectioned brain specimens under refrigeration. Using light microscopy, we found that there was no significant change in the size of pericellular or perivascular rarefaction areas based on the postmortem interval (PMI) or on the progression from the outer (frontal cortex) to the inner (striatum) brain regions. Additionally, we did not identify any significant number of ghost cells – a state of late-stage cellular necrosis – in the light micrographs analyzed. Using transmission electron microscopy of tissue from the frontal cortex, we found that synapses could still be visualized, but there was vacuolization and variable degrees of myelin disbanding identified. Using serial section transmission electron microscopy, we found that identified synapses could be traced from one section to the next. Using serial block face scanning electron microscopy, we also found that myelinated axons on 2D images can be traced with high fidelity from one image to the next, even at PMIs of up to 27 hours. Collectively, our data corroborate previous findings that immersion fixation is effective for prevention of cellular necrosis and for visualizing many ultrastructural features in at least the surface areas of the brain. However, how structural preservation quality should best be assessed in brain banking is an open question that depends on the intended research applications.

Tidal Mixing Signatures in the Hong Kong Coastal Waters from Satellite-Derived Sea Surface Temperature

description: Tidal mixing in the coastal waters of Hong Kong was investigated using a combination of in situ observations and high-resolution satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) data. An indicator of tide-induced mixing is a fortnightly (spring-neap cycle) signature in SST due to nonlinear interactions between the two principal diurnal and the two principal semi-diurnal tides. Both semi-diurnal and diurnal tides have strong tidal amplitudes and currents near Hong Kong. As a result, both the near-fortnightly (Mf) and fortnightly (MSf) tides are enhanced due to nonlinear tidal signal interactions. In addition, these fortnightly tidal signals are modulated by seasonal variability, with the maximum seasonal modulation of fortnightly tides occurring during the monsoon transition periods in May and October. The largest fortnightly signals are found in the southwestern part of the Pearl River estuary. Tidal constituent properties vary by space and depth, and high-resolution SST plays a pivotal role in resolving the spatial characteristics of tidal mixing.
Emerging Trends in a Period-Radius Distribution of Close-in Planets

description: We analyze the distribution of extrasolar planets (both confirmed and Kepler candidates) according to their orbital periods P and planetary radii R. Among confirmed planets, we find compelling evidence for a paucity of bodies with 3 < R < 10 R_\oplus, where R_\oplus in the Earth's radius, and P < 2-3 days. We have christened this region a "sub-Jovian Pampas". The same trend is detected in multiplanet Kepler candidates. Although approximately 16 Kepler single-planet candidates inhabit this Pampas, at least 7 are probable false positives (FP). This last number could be significantly higher if the ratio of FP is higher than 10%, as suggested by recent studies. In a second part of the paper we analyze the distribution of planets in the (P,R) plane according to stellar metallicities. We find two interesting trends: (i) a lack of small planets (R < 4 R_\oplus) with orbital periods P < 5 days in metal-poor stars, and (ii) a paucity of sub-Jovian planets (4 R_\oplus < R < 8 R_\oplus) with P < 100 days, also around metal-poor stars. Although all these trends are preliminary, they appear statistically significant and deserve further scrutiny. If confirmed, they could represent important constraints on theories of planetary formation and dynamical evolution.

description: The aim of this note is to gather formal similarities between two apparently different functions; {\em Euler's function} $Γ$ and {\em Anderson-Thakur function} $ω$. We discuss these similarities in the framework of the {\em generalized Carlitz's module}, a common structure which can be helpful in framing the theories of both functions. We further analyze several noticeable differences while investigating the {\em exponential functions} associated to these structures.
