Fundamental limitation on quantum broadcast networks
Year: 2017

The ability to distribute entanglement over complex quantum networks is an important step towards a quantum internet. Recently, there has been significant theoretical effort, mainly focusing on the distribution of bipartite entanglement via a simple quantum network composed only of bipartite quantum channels. There are, however, a number of quantum information processing protocols based on multipartite rather than bipartite entanglement. Whereas multipartite entanglement can be distributed by means of a network of such bipartite channels, a more natural way is to use a more general network, that is, a quantum broadcast network including quantum broadcast channels. In this work, we present a general framework for deriving upper bounds on the rates at which GHZ states or multipartite private states can be distributed among a number of different parties over an arbitrary quantum broadcast network. Our upper bounds are written in terms of the multipartite squashed entanglement, corresponding to a generalisation of recently derived bounds (Azuma et al, (2016) ) We also discuss how lower bounds can be obtained by combining a generalisation of an aggregated quantum repeater protocol with graph theoretic concepts.
Functional interactions between the gut microbiota and host metabolism
Venue: Nature
Year: 2012

The link between the microbes in the human gut and the development of obesity, cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndromes, such as type 2 diabetes, is becoming clearer. However, because of the complexity of the microbial community, the functional connections are less well understood. Studies in both mice and humans are helping to show what effect the gut microbiota has on host metabolism by improving energy yield from food and modulating dietary or the host derived compounds that alter host metabolic pathways. Through increased knowledge of the mechanisms involved in the interactions between the microbiota and its host, we will be in a better position to develop treatments for metabolic disease.

Year: 2011

The technology of Web 2.0 and especially social media has opened new avenues for creating communities online. Marketing to such communities can lead to better communication between consumers and those producing the product. By engaging communities online those who market film and television shows can use this new avenue to better communicate with their fans and build better communities. Through the study of three online fan pages on Facebook this paper observed how television and film companies are using this environment to market to their audience as well as what is working well and where improvement can be made.
Accuracy and Completeness of Clinical Coding Using ICD 10 for Ambulatory Visits
Venue: AMIA
Year: 2017

This study describes a simulation of diagnostic coding using an EHR. Twenty three ambulatory clinicians were asked to enter appropriate codes for six standardized scenarios with two different EHRs. Their interactions with the query interface were analyzed for patterns and variations in search strategies and the resulting sets of entered codes for accuracy and completeness. Just over a half of entered codes were appropriate for a given scenario and about a quarter were omitted. Crohn's disease and diabetes scenarios had the highest rate of inappropriate coding and code variation. The omission rate was higher for secondary than for primary visit diagnoses. Codes for immunization, dialysis dependence and nicotine dependence were the most often omitted. We also found a high rate of variation in the search terms used to query the EHR for the same diagnoses. Changes to the training of clinicians and improved design of EHR query modules may lower the rate of inappropriate and omitted codes.
Core Polarization and Relativistic Effects in Electron Affinity Calculations for Atoms: A Complex Angular Momentum Investigation
Year: 2015

Core polarization interactions are investigated in low energy electron elastic scattering from the atoms In,Sn,Eu,Au and At through the calculation of their electron affinities. The complex angular momentum method wherein is embedded the vital electron electron correlations is used. The core polarization effects are studied through the well investigated rational function approximation of the Thomas Fermi potential,which can be analytically continued into the complex plane. The EAs are extracted from the large resonance peaks in the calculated low energy electron atom scattering total cross sections and compared with those from measurements and sophisticated theoretical methods. It is concluded that when the electron electron correlation effects and core polarization interactions are accounted for adequately the importance of relativity on the calculation of the electron affinities of atoms can be assessed. For At, relativistic effects are estimated to contribute a maximum of about 3.6 percent to its (non relativistic) calculated electron affinity.

Year: 2020

Owing to their complex pathophysiology, diabetic wounds (DWs) pose serious challenges to current pharmacological modalities, eventually leading to high rate of amputation of lower extremities. This study aims to design novel hyaluronic acid (HA) functionalized chitosan nanoparticles (CS NPs) for efficient topical co delivery of curcumin (CUR) and resveratrol (REV) Ionic crosslinking technique was utilized for fabrication of HA functionalized co loaded NPs (HA CUR REV CS NPs) Following a series of optimization and evaluations, HA functionalized NPs having optimum physicochemical characteristics (i.e. particle size 30 mV, entrapment efficiencies of CUR and REV of ~90% were fabricated. HA functionalized CS NPs exhibited good colloidal stability at room temperature (25 2 degC) as well as in refrigerator (2 5 degC) The in vitro release studies revealed that HA functionalized NPs followed Non Fickian diffusion and sustained release mechanism. Conclusively, the resulting data evidenced that HA functionalized co loaded NPs might exhibit promising therapeutic potential for management of chronic DWs, therefore, further in vivo studies on diabetic animal model and acute and chronic toxicity studies are warranted.
A facile one step fabrication of robust superhydrophobic/superoleophilic cotton fabric using a crosslinkable POSS containing fluorinated copolymer
Year: 2016

A superhydrophobic/superoleophilic cotton fabric was fabricated by a facile one step dip coating method using a crosslinkable fluorinated copolymer material Poly(methyl methacrylate co butyl acrylate co hydroxyethyl methacrylate co perfluoroalkylethyl methacrylate co stearyl methacrylate co methacrylisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane) (P(MMA BA HEMA FMA SMA MAPOSS) The copolymer was synthesized using a conventional solution free radical polymerization. Cotton fabric was dip coated in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution of the copolymer and curing agent with NCO groups. The coated cotton fabric has a water contact angle above 150deg and oil contact angle of 0deg, showing both superhydrophobicity and superoleophilicity. Furthermore, the cotton fabric could keep its superhydrophobic property even after ultrasonic treatment in ethanol or thermal treatment, as well as for acidic or alkaline liquids. The coated cotton fabrics were used to separate various oil water mixtures with separation efficiency all above 96% Additionally, the cotton fabrics still kept high separation efficiency above 98% after 50 separation times for n hexane/water mixture. These suggest that the coated cotton fabric possesses robust superhydrophobic property and excellent oil water separation performance, and can finely meet the urgent request in oil water separation.
Experimental and numerical effects of flow hydraulics and pipe geometry on leakage behavior of laboratory water network distribution systems
Year: 2020

As the leakage behavior of water distribution network is considered life threatening and critical issue, so the behavior of water distribution network system is investigated experimentally and numerically under the effect of different positions and flow rates of leakage outlets taking into consideretion the flowhydraulics and pipe geametry. A laboratory model of the real studied water distribution network is constructed. The laboratory water distribution network is horizontal and has 16 loops with total length 30 m and different diameters. The leakage position in the laboratory water distribution network is altered between main, sub main and branch pipelines with different flow rates. The characteristics of the ideal laboratory water distribution network with no leakage are studied first. The studied laboratory water distribution network system parameters are solved theoretically using Hardy Cross method with seven iterations. The studied water distribution network system was simulated using computational fluid dynamics technique Ansys Fluent 18.2. The aim is to modify the ancient water distribution network by sensing the pressure values using dispersed pressure sensors. Also, from the pressure map of the laboratory water distribution network, the leakage position if exist can be localized. Depending on the sensed pressure, the control circuit programmed to close the corresponding solenoid valves. The leakage flow rates are 0.1, 0.25 and 0.4 L/s and changed between the main and sub main pipes. The maximum pressure drop around 500 pa at the node directly preceding the leakage point at leakage flow rate 0.4 L/s. The performance of the used solenoid valve is simulated using Matlab Simulink technique. The simulation results show the response to step down control signal is over damped with steady state error 2 and settling time 0.6 s.

Conversion y traduccion. "Entrevistas con Abdelghani Melara Navio y Raul Gonzalez Bornez"
Year: 2015

At present, it has been observed a profusion of the translations of the Coran made by converts. Globalization has given rise to an increasing interest for <the culture of the other> (Islam, in our case) and with it, the need to know its language and culture in depth. This implies the translation of its axial text, the core par excellence, of islamic culture: the Coran. In this work, we offer the interviews of two of the Muslim translators of the Coran into Spanish: Abdelghani Melara Navio and Raul Gonzalez Bornez. We mainly deal with traductological aspects, difficulties and formation, with the object of obtaining a better comprehension of their versions
Impact of Macroeconomic Factors on Terminal Operators' Profit: Focusing on Global Terminal Operators
Year: 2020

In the future, the global container handling market will be reorganized into larger ships and shipping alliances, and the bargaining power of shipping companies will be further strengthened. Therefore, the global terminal operator (GTO) which has a global network, vast experience, and operational know how, is expected to strengthen its competitiveness. In Korea, the central government promoted the development of GTOs in the mid 2000s, but it failed, mainly due to disagreements between port stakeholders. In this study, the macroeconomic indicators that have the same effect in all regions were used to analyze GTO management performance. In the short term, it could be used to establish the business strategy of domestic terminal operators based on changes in macroeconomic indicators. In the long term, it would be used to establish a promotion strategy for GTOs in Korea. The results of analyzing the impact of macroeconomic indicators on the GTO's profit show that the GTO's profit is significantly affected by cargo handling capacity, the consumer price index of the United States, the Shanghai Composite Index, the Crude Oil Price, and the London Inter bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) However, the scale of impact was not significantly different between public and private GTOs.

Effect of C/N ratio and ammonia N accumulation in a pilot scale thermophilic dry anaerobic digester.
Venue: Bioresource technology
Year: 2012

The effect of ammonia N accumulation in a dry anaerobic digestion was studied effectively using pilot scale thermophilic reactor. Two simulations were prepared to attain C/N ratio 27 and C/N ratio 32 using bio degradable feedstocks such as food waste, fruit and vegetable waste, green waste and paper waste. Organic loading rates and digestate recirculation rates were varied during different time intervals and the performance was evaluated using parameters like pH, VFA, Alkalinity, ammonia N and biogas yield. Results showed that the simulation with C/N ratio 32 had about 30% less ammonia in digestate as compared to that with C/N ratio 27. The system performed well up to organic loading rate (OLR) 7 10 kgVS/m(3)d and retention time up to 19 days, with surplus energy production of 50 73% Moreover, a free ammonia accumulation/inhibition effect was documented and methods to overcome the adverse effects were discussed.
Patient engagement in research related to dementia: A scoping review
Venue: Dementia
Year: 2018

Patient 'engagement' or 'involvement' in health research broadly refers to including people with lived experience (i.e. individuals with personal experience of a health issue and their friends, family and caregivers or carers) in the research process. Although previous reviews have systematically summarized approaches to patient engagement in research, it is unclear whether and how engagement activities have been implemented or adapted for research related to dementia. We conducted a scoping review to describe the extent and nature of patient engagement approaches that have been used to involve persons with dementia and their care partners in research. We then summarized the reported barriers, enablers, and impacts of this engagement. Fifty four research articles were included in the review and almost all were published after 2010. Persons with dementia and their care partners have been engaged in diverse phases of the research process. The majority of engagement involved both persons with dementia and care partners. Barriers and enablers to engagement included those identified for general patient engagement in research, but some more specific to engaging persons with dementia and their care partners were also reported. Very few studies assessed the impact of patient engagement. While the arguments for patient engagement in research are compelling, research to demonstrate the impact on the research process and outcomes as well as on persons with dementia, care partners, researchers, research institutions and society is still needed.
Christopher Alexander's Battle for Beauty in a World Turning Ugly: The Inception of a Science of Architecture?
Year: 2020

Christopher Alexander has been a leading pioneer of academic research on architectural and urban design since the early 1960s. He is also a practicing architect and builder with a passion for creating and restoring life and beauty to our physical environment. In this essay I review, evaluate, and reflect on some of his particularly fruitful, promising, or problematic ideas. I will put forth some ideas of my own for clarification, and to indicate avenues for future research. I argue that Alexander's notion of patterns (a verbal medium for capturing and conveying design knowledge in a systematic, reusable form) is in need of conceptual development along lines I suggest, even though Alexander downplayed the significance of patterns as he moved on to other theoretical ideas (mainly about aesthetics) later in his career. While I go into some detail about selected parts of Alexander's work, the intended readership of this essay is not restricted to specialists. I have made an effort to provide guidance and background information to readers not already familiar with Alexander's comprehensive body of theory.
Historical Experience of the CPC in Dealing with Relations between Unity and Diversity in the United Front since the Adoption of the Reform and Opening Up Policy
Year: 2015

It is the general guideline for United Front work to properly deal with the relations between unity and diversity.Since the adoption of the reform and opening up policy,the CPC has developed the preliminary pattern by integrating the three aspects of governing philosophy,basic system and organizational mechanism in dealing with the relations between unity and diversity in the United Front,and has accumulated rich historical experience.It is the key for developing the broad United Front for us to better inherit and innovatively apply the existing experience and co ordinate the three aspects of basic system,governing philosophy and United Front mechanism,which is also the cardinal direction for dealing with the relations between unity and diversity under the Four Pronged Comprehensive Strategy.
Early Clinical Results of Short Same Segment Posterior Fixation in Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures.
Venue: Ortopedia, traumatologia, rehabilitacja
Year: 2018

We did a prospective study to study the efficiency of Short Segment Posterior Instrumentation using a Universal Spine System with incorporation of the fractured vertebra in post traumatic thoracic and lumbar spine fractures.  25 cases in the age group of I5 50 years with thoracic and lumbar spine fractures were included in the study. The operative decision was made on the basis of instability of spine fractures with or without neurological deficit. Patients were followed up for an average period of twelve months, reporting for assessment at 3 monthly intervals. The final result was analyzed on the basis of neurological recovery as per Frankel's Grading, spine stability as per kyphotic angle by Cobb's method, vertebral body height and complications.  Post operatively at the final follow up visit, 36% patients had Frankel's grade E neurological status. The mean sagittal plane kyphosis pre operatively was 31.16deg, which reduced to 21.52deg post operatively, which represents 30.93% reduction. Mean anterior body compression was 38.6deg, which decreased to 23.4deg post operatively, corresponding to 15% increase.  Although conventional short segment posterior fixation (SSPF) has become an increasingly popular method of treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures, providing the advantage of incorporating fewer motion segments in the fixation, a review of literature demonstrated that SSPF led to 9 55% incidence of implant failure and long term loss of kyphosis correction. 2. Short segment posterior fixation with pedicle fixation at the level of the fractured vertebra (short same segment fixation) provides more biomechanical stability than traditional SSPF.
Molten salt synthesis, formation mechanism, and oxidation behavior of nanocrystalline HfB2 powders
Venue: Journal of Advanced Ceramics
Year: 2020

Nanocrystalline HfB2 powders were successfully synthesized by molten salt synthesis technique at 1373 K using B and HfO2 as precursors within KCl/NaCl molten salts. The results showed that the as synthesized powders exhibited an irregular polyhedral morphology with the average particle size of 155 nm and possessed a single crystalline structure. From a fundamental aspect, we demonstrated the molten salt assisted formation mechanism that the molten salts could accelerate the diffusion rate of the reactants and improve the chemical reaction rate of the reactants in the system to induce the synthesis of the high purity nanocrystalline powders. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the oxidation of the as synthesized HfB2 powders at 773 1073 K in air was the weight gain process and the corresponding oxidation behavior followed parabolic kinetics governed by the diffusion of oxygen in the oxide layer.
