EarthArXiv is a preprint service for the Earth sciences — a web-based system that enables open access publishing of non peer-reviewed scholarly manuscripts before publication in a peer-reviewed journal. In this presentation, we provide analytics on the usage of EarthArXiv across a number of sub-disciplines of Earth science. Data indicate that the service in general is growing, but with submission rates varying amongst discipline. The trend of the preprint-to-postprint ratio for each discipline also provides insight into how the various Earth science communities are using the service. We investigate were preprints are published after submission to EarthArXiv and examine how …


“Tied To The Land”: Pipelines, Plains And Place Attachment, Christina E. Dando Jul 2021

“Tied To The Land”: Pipelines, Plains And Place Attachment, Christina E. Dando

Geography and Geology Faculty Publications

Since first proposed, the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines have been extensively covered by the media, shaping readers’ perceptions of the pipelines, as well as perceptions of the places and peoples impacted by them. Using critical discourse analysis, this paper examines the media coverage, their Plains descriptions, and expressions of place attachment. Through the media’s use of “place talk,” it presents a hybrid Plains: placeless, yet with a strongly place-attached population who are “tied to the land.” As conflicts over environmental and energy projects become increasingly contentious, place and place attachment are important for understanding the conflicts and potentially …

Mathematical Model Of Power Flow In A Single-Phase Network Using Facts Devices Containing Static Power Flow Compensator Svc, Sh V. Khamidov, Bahrom Normuratov

Scientific-technical journal

The use of FACTS technology makes it possible to reduce the gap between controlled and uncontrolled modes of EPS operation, providing dispatching personnel with additional degrees of freedom in controlling power flows and voltages in excess and deficient areas of the electrical network. The unified approach used as an alternative combines the state variables of the EPS without controlled power equipment and the state variables describing the given controlled power equipment - the FACTS device - into a single set of states. In this case, the electrical network is described in a single coordinate system for the combined iterative solutions …

Scopeformer: N-Cnn-Vit Hybrid Model For Intracranial Hemorrhage Classification, Barhoumi Yassine, Ghulam Rasool Jul 2021

Scopeformer: N-Cnn-Vit Hybrid Model For Intracranial Hemorrhage Classification, Barhoumi Yassine, Ghulam Rasool

Henry M. Rowan College of Engineering Departmental Research

We propose a feature generator backbone composed of an ensemble of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to improve the recently emerging Vision Transformer (ViT) models. We tackled the RSNA intracranial hemorrhage classification problem, i.e., identifying various hemorrhage types from computed tomography (CT) slices. We show that by gradually stacking several feature maps extracted using multiple Xception CNNs, we can develop a feature-rich input for the ViT model. Our approach allowed the ViT model to pay attention to relevant features at multiple levels. Moreover, pretraining the ”n” CNNs using various paradigms leads to a diverse feature set and further improves the performance …


Digital Contact Tracing During The Sars-Cov-2 Pandemic, Erin Katherine Moran Jul 2021

Digital Contact Tracing During The Sars-Cov-2 Pandemic, Erin Katherine Moran

Dissertations

Problem

Manual contact tracing (MCT) is considered an essential public health intervention for infectious disease control. During the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, there was insufficient funding or personnel to reduce transmission effectively. Throughout the pandemic, Missouri remained below the recommended contact tracing response rate (CRR) of 50%. One method used globally to aid in pandemic control was digital contact tracing (DCT); however, Missouri was unable to implement digital contact tracing due to barriers faced, which were not unique.

Methods

DCT was selected as subject of a strategic plan (SP) to augment MCT efforts. Other locales’ successes …


Selection Rule For Topological Amplifiers In Bogoliubov De Gennes Systems, Hong Y. Ling, Ben Kain Jul 2021

Selection Rule For Topological Amplifiers In Bogoliubov De Gennes Systems, Hong Y. Ling, Ben Kain

College of Science & Mathematics Departmental Research

Dynamical instability is an inherent feature of bosonic systems described by the Bogoliubov de Geenes (BdG) Hamiltonian. Since it causes the BdG system to collapse, it is generally thought that it should be avoided. Recently, there has been much effort to harness this instability for the benefit of creating a topological amplifier with stable bulk bands but unstable edge modes which can be populated at an exponentially fast rate. We present a theorem for determining the stability of states with energies sufficiently away from zero, in terms of an unconventional commutator between the number conserving part and number nonconserving part …

Publications and Research

Effective patient–provider communication is a cornerstone of patient-centered care. Patient portals provide an effective method for secure communication between patients or their proxies and their health care providers. With greater acceptability of patient portals in private practices, patients have a unique opportunity to manage their health care needs. However, studies have shown that less than 50% of patients reported accessing the electronic health record (EHR) in a 12-month period. We used HINTS 5 cycle 1 and cycle 2 to assess disparities among US residents 18 and older with any chronic condition regarding the use of EHR for secure direct messaging …


Optimization Of Load-Bearing And Impact Energy Absorption Capacities Of Honeycomb Structures By Density Gradation, Oyindamola Khadijat Rahman Jul 2021

Optimization Of Load-Bearing And Impact Energy Absorption Capacities Of Honeycomb Structures By Density Gradation, Oyindamola Khadijat Rahman

Theses and Dissertations

Density gradation has been analytically and experimentally proven to enhance the load-bearing and energy absorption efficiency of cellular solids. This research focuses on the analytical optimization (by virtual experiments) of polymeric honeycomb structures made from flexible thermoplastics to achieve density-graded structures with desired mechanical properties. The global stress-strain curves of single-density honeycomb structures are used as input to an analytical model that enables the characterization of the constitutive response of density-graded hexagonal honeycombs with discrete and continuous gradations and for various gradients. The stress-strain outputs are used to calculate the specific energy absorption, efficiency, and ideality metrics for all density-graded …

A Simple Gas-Kinetic Model For Dilute And Weakly Charged Plasma Micro-Jet Flows, Shiying Cai, Chunpei Cai Jul 2021

A Simple Gas-Kinetic Model For Dilute And Weakly Charged Plasma Micro-Jet Flows, Shiying Cai, Chunpei Cai

Michigan Tech Publications, Part 1

This paper presents a simple model for slightly charged gas expanding into a vacuum from a planar exit. The number density, bulk velocity, temperature, and potential at the exit are given. The electric field force is assumed weaker than the convection term and is neglected in the analysis. As such, the quasi-neutral condition is naturally adopted and the potential field is computed with the Boltzmann relation. At far field, the exit degenerates as a point source, and simplified analytical formulas for flow and electric fields are obtained. The results are generic and offer insights on many existing models in the …

The Incubation Effect Among Students Playing An Educational Game For Physics, May Marie P. Talandron-Felipe, Ma. Mercedes T. Rodrigo Jul 2021

The Incubation Effect Among Students Playing An Educational Game For Physics, May Marie P. Talandron-Felipe, Ma. Mercedes T. Rodrigo

Department of Information Systems & Computer Science Faculty Publications

The incubation effect (IE) is a problem-solving phenomenon composed of three phases: pre-incubation where one fails to solve a problem; incubation, a momentary break where time is spent away from the unsolved problem; and post-incubation where the unsolved problem is revisited and solved. Literature on IE was limited to experiments involving traditional classroom activities. This initial investigation showed evidence of IE instances in a computer-based learning environment. This paper consolidates the studies on IE among students playing an educational game called Physics Playground and presents further analysis to examine the incidence of post-incubation or the revisit to a previously unsolved …

Monocular 3d Object Detection Via Ego View-To-Bird’S Eye View Translation, Atharva Arun Tembe

Theses

The advanced development in autonomous agents like self-driving cars can be attributed to computer vision, a branch of artificial intelligence that enables software to understand the content of image and video. These autonomous agents require a three-dimensional modelling of its surrounding in order to operate reliably in the real-world. Despite the significant progress of 2D object detectors, they have a critical limitation in location sensitive applications as they do not provide accurate physical information of objects in 3D space. 3D object detection is a promising topic that can provide relevant solutions which could improve existing 2D based applications. Due to …
