description: We present Poincare invariant domain wall (``3-brane'') solutions to some 5-dimensional effective theories which can arise naturally in string theory. In particular, we find theories where Poincare invariant solutions exist for arbitrary values of the brane tension, for certain restricted forms of the bulk interactions. We describe examples in string theory where it would be natural for the quantum corrections to the tension of the brane (arising from quantum fluctuations of modes with support on the brane) to maintain the required form of the action. In such cases, the Poincare invariant solutions persist in the presence of these quantum corrections to the brane tension, so that no 4d cosmological constant is generated by these modes.

description: Intense few cycle terahertz pulses exhibit complex non-linear behavior under interaction with heavily n-doped Si. Fast increase in the transmission of a 700 fs pulse (central frequency 1.5 THz) through the Si sample (low field transmission of 0:02 %) saturates at 8 % for the external field of 5 MV/cm and then drops twofold at 20 MV/cm. An electro-optical sampling measurements revealed formation of a single cycle terahertz pulse at this field due to formation of a thin ionized layer by the first intense oscillation of the terahertz field.

description: Four dimensional heterotic string effective action is known to admit non-rotating electrically and magnetically charged black hole solutions. It is shown that the partition functions and entropies in both the cases are identical when these black hole solutions are related by S-duality transformations. The entropy is computed and is vanishing for each black hole in the extremal limit.

description: A recent interpretation of the caloric curve based on the expansion of the abraded spectator nucleus is re-analysed in the framework of the Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) evolution. It is shown that the TDHF dynamics is more complex than a single monopolar collective motion at moderate energy. The inclusion of other important collective degrees of freedom may lead to the dynamical creation of hollow structure. Then, low density regions could be locally reached after a long time by the creation of these exotic density profiles. In particular the systematic of the minimum density reached during the expansion (the so-called turning points) appears to be different.

description: Phlebotomus (Paraphlebotomus) saevusParrot & Martin, 1939
The male of Ph. saevus has a straight, non-hooked parameral sheath, a large basal lobe of the gonocoxite, with a weakly dilated distal portion carrying many long and slightly curved setae.
The Ph. saevus female is difficult to distinguish from that of Ph. sergenti. Its pharyngeal armature is well developed and contains more teeth than those of Ph. sergenti (Fig. 4).
Ph. saevus has a distribution including East Africa and Arabia. In Oman, this is its first record. We caught Ph. saevus only in Dhofar (Djebel Quara), at the Dh3 capture site, an isolated farm where a female patient with leishmaniasis caused by L. tropica (LCO 4) lived.
Ph. saevus is a vector suspected of transmitting L. tropica in households where Ph. sergenti is absent, like in Kenya [45] or Yemen [14].

description: By raising the issue of data requirements for the purpose of modal development, validation and application, this study proposes an approach to calibrate choice model parameters in heterogeneous traffic condition using minimal empirical data. For this, a real-world scenario of Patna, India is chosen. For the calibration, a Bayesian framework-based calibration technique (CaDyTS: Calibration of Dynamic Traffic Simulations) is used. Commonly available, mode-specific, hourly-classified traffic counts are used to generate full day plans of agents and their initially unknown activity locations. While the proposed approach implements location choice implicitly, the approach can be applied to a variety of other problems. Further, the effect of household income is included in the utility function to incorporate the effect of income in the decision-making process of individual travelers and to filter out inconsistencies in the daily plans, which originate from the survey data.

description: Upon mechanical loading, granular materials yield and undergo plastic deformation. The nature of plastic deformation is essential for the development of the macroscopic constitutive models and the understanding of shear band formation. However, we still do not fully understand the microscopic nature of plastic deformation in disordered granular materials. Here we used synchrotron X-ray tomography technique to track the structural evolutions of three-dimensional granular materials under shear. We establish that highly distorted coplanar tetrahedra are the structural defects responsible for microscopic plasticity in disordered granular packings. The elementary plastic events occur through flip events which correspond to a neighbor switching process among these coplanar tetrahedra (or equivalently as the rotation motion of 4-ring disclinations). These events are discrete in space and possess specific orientations with the principal stress direction.

description: I consider the implications for brane-world scenarios of the rather robust quantum-gravity expectation that there should be a quantum minimum limit on the uncertainty of all physical length scales. In order to illustrate the possible significance of this issue, I observe that, according to a plausible estimate, the quantum limit on the length scales that characterize the bulk geometry could affect severely the phenomenology of a recently-proposed brane-world scenario.

description: Aggregation-induced emission (AIE), as a special phenomenon of fluorescence, can elegantly overcome the fluorescence quenching caused by common fluorescent materials under high concentration conditions and has attracted interest of researchers in many fields. Particularly AIE-active polymer nanoparticles have been widely utilized in a modern biomedical research. In this work, we prepared a novel kind of AIE-active fluorescent polymeric nanoparticals (Dex-OH-CHO) through a facile esterification between a new hydrophobic AIE-active 1, 8-naphthalimide derivative and the hydrophilic dextran. The structure and optical properties of Dex-OH-CHO were characterized in detail by FTIR, 1H NMR, XPS, TEM and fluorescence spectra. The results showed that Dex-OH-CHO emitted light-blue fluorescence in aqueous solution with high fluorescent quantum yield (Φ = 24.43%, concentration is 20 μg/mL), low CMC (5 μg/mL), good photostability, high water solubility and well dispersivity. Moreover, good biocompatibility and ideal cell uptake made Dex-OH-CHO had a great application potential in biological imaging.

description: The conformal transformation in the Einstein - Hilbert action leads to a new frame where an extra scalar degree of freedom is compensated by the local conformal-like symmetry. We write down a most general action resulting from such transformation and show that it covers both general relativity and conformally coupled to gravity scalar field as the particular cases. On quantum level the equivalence between the different frames is disturbed by the loop corrections. New conformal-like symmetry in anomalous and, as a result, the theory is not finite on shell at the one-loop order.

Phlebotomus alexandri

description: Phlebotomus (Paraphlebotomus) alexandri Sinton, 1928
The male and female are easily identifiable thanks to their short first flagellomere (= AIII).
Moreover, in the male, there is a short basal lobe of the gonocoxite, with a spherical head, provided with radiant, generally rectilinear setae. The apical spine of the style is inserted on a long process, far from the subapical spine.
The female exhibits a pharyngeal armature of rectangular overall appearance without anterior extension, consisting of strongly chitinised, spiniform scales forming a thick network.
Ph. alexandri occupies a vast geographical area: from Morocco to Mongolia down to Sudan. In Oman, Ph. alexandri is a fairly abundant Phlebotomus, especially in Dhofar. Here, Ph. alexandri is mainly found in the desert zone at Boswellia (Incense Tree), and more particularly in bottom of the Wadi (Herwouib).
With the exception of the isolation of L. donovani in China [27], the role of Ph. alexandri as a vector is still under discussion. Its low abundance in the prospected areas of the Sharqiyah cannot yet explain its potential role in the transmission of L. donovani.

description: Thermodynamical variables and their time evolution are studied for central relativistic heavy ion collisions from 10.7 to 160 AGeV in the microscopic Ultrarelativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics model (UrQMD). The UrQMD model exhibits drastic deviations from equilibrium during the early high density phase of the collision. Local thermal and chemical equilibration of the hadronic matter seems to be established only at later stages of the quasi- isentropic expansion in the central reaction cell with volume 125 fm$^{3}$. distributions at all collision energies for $t\geq 10 fm/c$ with a unique Baryon energy spectra in this cell are approximately reproduced by Boltzmann rapidly dropping temperature. At these times the equation of state has a simple form: $P \cong (0.12-0.15) ε$. At 160 AGeV the strong deviation from chemical equilibrium is found for mesons, especially for pions, even at the late stage of the reaction. The final enhancement of pions is supported by experimental data.

The Probability of Failure of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells by the Integrated Modelling of Multiple Physical Processes
Creators: name: Clague, Ralph
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: A three dimensional, coupled computational fluid dynamics and finite element model of a single, anode supported solid oxide fuel cell has been developed in order to predict the probability of failure of the ceramic components subjected to an idealised operating duty cycle. The duty cycle represents cooling from sintering, warming to a uniform temperature of 800◦C where anode chemical reduction takes place, operation at low, medium and high power and finally cooling to room temperature. The StarCDTM computational fluid dynamics code provided the platform to determine the temperature distribution throughout the operating fuel cell by solving the conservation equations for energy, mass and momentum, with additional subroutines written to account for species transport, electrochemical reactions and heat generation. An AbaqusTM finite element model used the temperature distribution predicted by the computational fluid dynamics model at low, medium and high power to solve for the thermal stress distribution for individual cases and throughout the duty cycle. The finite element model included the effects of thermal expansion, residual stress from manufacture, material properties changes due to chemical reduction of the anode and viscoplastic creep. The maximum principal stress in the anode support layer at 800◦C and low, medium and high power was found to be 5.0, 26.5, 33.2 and 39.8 MPa respectively. The stress analysis results were used to determine the time independent and time dependent (accounting for sub-critical crack growth) probability of failure, and showed that over the duty cycle sub-critical crack growth significantly increased the predicted probability of failure in the anode support layer from less than 1 ×10−12 to 0.54, and in the cathode layer from 1.28 × 10−5 to 1.24 × 10−3. The probability of failure of SOFC ceramic components is thus shown to be both time and history dependent.

description: High-order topological insulators (TIs) are a family of recently-predicted topological phases of matter obeying an extended topological bulk-boundary correspondence principle. For example, a two-dimensional (2D) second-order TI does not exhibit gapless one-dimensional (1D) topological edge states, like a standard 2D TI, but instead has topologically-protected zero-dimensional (0D) corner states. So far, higher-order TIs have been demonstrated only in classical mechanical and electromagnetic metamaterials exhibiting quantized quadrupole polarization. Here, we experimentally realize a second-order TI in an acoustic metamaterial. This is the first experimental realization of a new type of higher-order TI, based on a breathing Kagome lattice, that has zero quadrupole polarization but nontrivial bulk topology characterized by quantized Wannier centers (WCs). Unlike previous higher-order TI realizations, the corner states depend not only on the bulk topology but also on the corner shape; we show experimentally that they exist at acute-angled corners of the Kagome lattice, but not at obtuse-angled corners. This shape dependence allows corner states to act as topologically-protected but reconfigurable local resonances.

Grassomyia dreyfussi

description: Grassomyia dreyfussi (Parrot, 1933)
This species is distinguished from other Oman species by the absence, in both sexes, of ascoids on the first flagellomere, which is a characteristic of the genus Grassomyia. Moreover, both male and female harbour strong spines on each femur (pro- and meso- and metafemur).
The female is recognised by the very characteristic pattern of her spermathecae, in capsule of opium poppy.
The distribution of Gr. dreyfussi extends from Morocco to Iran and goes down to Kenya. It has recently been recorded in the Arabian Peninsula [20]. Its record in Oman is not surprising in this context. In the Sultanate, we have captured very rare specimens in the Sharqiyah and Dhofar.
Its role in the transmission of a Leishmania has never been mentioned.

description: Using parametric equations of state (relativistic polytropes and a simple quark bag model) to model dense-matter phase transitions, we study global, measurable astrophysical parameters of compact stars such as their allowed radii and tidal deformabilities. We also investigate the influence of stiffness of matter before the onset of the phase transitions on the parameters of the possible exotic dense phase. The aim of our study is to compare the parameter space of the dense matter equation of state permitting phase transitions to a sub-space compatible with current observational constraints such as the maximum observable mass, tidal deformabilities of neutron star mergers, radii of configurations before the onset of the phase transition, and to give predictions for future observations. We studied solutions of the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations for a flexible set of parametric equations of state. We compare tidal deformabilities of stars with weak and strong phase transitions with the results of the GW170817 neutron star merger. Specifically, we study characteristic phase transition features in the $Λ_1-Λ_2$ relation, and estimate the deviations of our results from the approximate formulæ for $\tildeΛ-R(M_1)$ and $Λ$-compactness proposed in the literature. We find constraints on the hybrid equations of state to produce stable neutron stars on the twin branch. For the exemplary equations of state most of the high-mass twins occur for the minimum values of the density jump $λ= 1.33-1.54$; corresponding values of the square of the speed of sound are $α= 0.7-0.37$. We compare results with observations of gravitational waves and with the theoretical causal limit and find that the minimum radius of a twin branch is 9.5 - 10.5 km. For these solutions, the phase transition occurs below 0.56 [fm$^{-3}$].

Characterisation of the Vaccinia Virus Protein, C16, and its Role in Infection
Creators: name: Fahy, Aodhnait Sile
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Characterisation and manipulation of Vaccinia virus (VACV) immunomodulators is important for engineering recombinant VACV vaccines with enhanced immunogenicity. To this end, the goal of this study was to characterise the putative immunomodulator, C16, a protein of interest due to proposed similarity to the interleukin 1 receptor antagonist protein. C16 is a highly conserved, early protein of approximately 37 kDa that actively shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus in transfected and infected cells. In order to study the function of C16, a VACV mutant lacking the C16L gene (vΔC16) and a revertant virus wherein the gene was reinserted into the deletion mutant (vC16Rev) were constructed. In cell culture, vΔC16 had similar replication kinetics to wild type and revertant control viruses, but formed a smaller plaque. The loss of C16 led to a significantly attenuated phenotype in a murine intranasal model of infection that was characterised by reduced weight-loss and signs of illness. While virus titres between the virus sets were comparable in the initial days of infection, virus titres of vΔC16 dropped more rapidly over the course of the infection. In vΔC16-infected mice there was also an accelerated recruitment and activation of lymphocytes. In contrast, there was no significant difference in the murine intradermal model of infection. Furthermore, the omission of C16 did not decrease the efficacy of protective vaccination. The attenuation of vΔC16 in vivo may be due to the effect of C16 on IL-6 production which has been demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. This is reminiscent of one of the functions of IL-1Ra though the precise mechanism of this downregulation of IL-6 by C16 remains to be determined. C16 also downregulates ISRE-dependent gene expression, via a mechanism independent of STAT1 but which may involve p38 MAPK.

description: Accurate screening of cancer types is crucial for effective cancer detection and precise treatment selection. However, the association between gene expression profiles and tumors is often limited to a small number of biomarker genes. While computational methods using nature-inspired algorithms have shown promise in selecting predictive genes, existing techniques are limited by inefficient search and poor generalization across diverse datasets. This study presents a framework termed Evolutionary Optimized Diverse Ensemble Learning (EODE) to improve ensemble learning for cancer classification from gene expression data. The EODE methodology combines an intelligent grey wolf optimization algorithm for selective feature space reduction, guided random injection modeling for ensemble diversity enhancement, and subset model optimization for synergistic classifier combinations. Extensive experiments were conducted across 35 gene expression benchmark datasets encompassing varied cancer types. Results demonstrated that EODE obtained significantly improved screening accuracy over individual and conventionally aggregated models. The integrated optimization of advanced feature selection, directed specialized modeling, and cooperative classifier ensembles helps address key challenges in current nature-inspired approaches. This provides an effective framework for robust and generalized ensemble learning with gene expression biomarkers. Specifically, we have opened EODE source code on Github at https://github.com/wangxb96/EODE.

description: Zipf's law is a hallmark of several complex systems with a modular structure, such as books composed by words or genomes composed by genes. In these component systems, Zipf's law describes the empirical power law distribution of component frequencies. Stochastic processes based on a sample-space-reducing (SSR) mechanism, in which the number of accessible states reduces as the system evolves, have been recently proposed as a simple explanation for the ubiquitous emergence of this law. However, many complex component systems are characterized by other statistical patterns beyond Zipf's law, such as a sublinear growth of the component vocabulary with the system size, known as Heap's law, and a specific statistics of shared components. This work shows, with analytical calculations and simulations, that these statistical properties can emerge jointly from a SSR mechanism, thus making it an appropriate parameter-poor representation for component systems. Several alternative (and equally simple) models, for example based on the preferential attachment mechanism, can also reproduce Heaps' and Zipf's laws, suggesting that additional statistical properties should be taken into account to select the most-likely generative process for a specific system. Along this line, we will show that the temporal component distribution predicted by the SSR model is markedly different from the one emerging from the popular rich-gets-richer mechanism. A comparison with empirical data from natural language indicates that the SSR process can be chosen as a better candidate model for text generation based on this statistical property. Finally, a limitation of the SSR model in reproducing the empirical "burstiness" of word appearances in texts will be pointed out, thus indicating a possible direction for extensions of the basic SSR process.

Transcutaneous immunisation with antigens derived from tetanus toxin
Creators: name: Johnston, Louise
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Transcutaneous immunisation (TCI) is a novel needle-free method of vaccine delivery, which involves the application of soluble antigens onto the surface of intact skin. In this thesis, the immunogenicity and neutralising potency of tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT) fragments were compared to that of tetanus toxoid (TTxd) following TCI. In addition, to understand the mechanisms of induction of immune response by TCI, in vitro and in vivo interaction of tetanus proteins with skin immune cells was also investigated. The 50kDa recombinant carboxyl-terminal fragment of tetanus toxin (HCWT) and a 50kDa HC mutant (HCM115) which is devoid of neuronal binding properties, were expressed and purified by affinity chromatography, and excess endotoxin removed by size exclusion chromatography. Mice immunized with HCWT, in the absence of adjuvant, induced the highest anti-toxoid and anti-HCWT antibody titers, with significant increases in the toxin neutralising antibody response when compared with TTxd. In vitro studies demonstrated that both HC fragments and TTxd were capable of up regulating the surface expression of activation marker ICAM-1 on murine bone-marrow derived dendritic cells (DC), but not on the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Real-time reverse transcriptase-PCR (Realtime RT-PCR) analysis showed that TNF-α expression was up regulated in vivo as early as 10 minutes following TCI, and this was caused by shaving rather than by tetanus proteins themselves. Immunohistochemistry staining to monitor the translocation of HCWT fragment and TTxd through the skin following TCI showed that HCWT protein could be detected in both the epidermis and dermis within four hours post-application. However, TTxd translocation appeared to be much slower in comparison. Collectively, the results presented in this thesis suggest that TCI may provide an opportunity for effective delivery of toxin-like antigens, which harbor protective epitopes and that traditional toxoid proteins may not be optimal antigens for skin immunisation.

Sergentomyia fallax

description: Sergentomyia (Sergentomyia) fallax (Parrot, 1921)
The male genitalia has a long and narrow gonostyle with a non-deciduous silk implanted very distally.
The female has a large pharynx with a well-developed armature consisting with monomorphic teeth forming a heartshaped pattern. The cibarium is armed with 15–23 pointed teeth, equal or sub-equal, arranged in an arch. The sclerotised area (= pigment patch) is oval.
The distribution of Se. fallax is wide. It extends from the Canary Islands and Morocco to Pakistan, covers the Arabian Peninsula and remains north of the Sahara. In Oman, Se. fallax is abundant in the Dhofar, while it is rather rare in the Sharqiyah.
The role of this species has never been mentioned in the transmission of a Leishmania, despite its vicariant Se. dubia being a possible vector of L. infantum in Senegal [68].

A study of layered contact problems with particular application to tyre-wheel interfaces
Creators: name: Reina, Saverio
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: This thesis is concerned with the characterization of layered contact problems. The research project has been prompted by an investigation into creep, and ultimately, gross sliding, of rubber tyres fitted around steel wheels in earth moving equipment. In general, slippage between tyre and rim is experienced in common engineering applications employing tyred systems. A general and systematic approach for investigating the interfacial behaviour of tyred systems has consequently been proposed. Classical techniques together with novel numerical approaches based on advanced mathematical programming have been implemented to support the investigation. Creep between mating surfaces, frictional shakedown and measuring friction in partial slip condition are the main objects of investigation. The analytical and numerical models developed by the author have been complemented by experimental work, whose detailed description is also included in this thesis. Finally, further studies have been performed to shed light on some of the design issues offered by the threedimensional full-scale engineering application. The numerical approach based on finite element modelling used to tackle these aspects of the project and the experimental work carried out by the author to corroborate the numerical findings are also presented.

description: A method is presented for numerical implementation of the extended TDHF theory in which two-body correlations beyond the mean-field approximation are incorporated in the form of a quantal collision term. The method is tested in a model problem in which the exact solution can be obtained numerically. Whereas the usual TDHF fails to reproduce the long time evolution, a very good agreement is found between the extended TDHF and the exact solution.
