Show moreThe powered resonance tube (PRT) actuator and its variants are new developments in active flow control (AFC) technology. The PRT is attractive because it has no moving parts and can produce acoustic tones that have amplitudes greater than 150 dB over a large frequency bandwidth. The first part of this paper deals with the resonance characteristics of the PRT as a function of the operating parameters such as jet-to-tube spacing (Sp), tube depth (d), and nozzle pressure ratio (NPR). It was found that: (1) at low NPR (3.33), the PRT resonates at discrete combinations of spacing and depth. (2) Using theoretical estimates for predicting shock cell lengths, one could observe a correlation between the theoretical prediction for shock cell length and the spacing at which the PRT resonates. (3) At high NPR (4.29), for a fixed depth, the PRT resonates at virtually all spacings. (4) The frequency at which the PRT resonates remains approximately constant, regardless of spacing. The second part of the study focused on examining the directivity of the acoustic radiation from the PRT-significant for developing orientation strategies of the PRT with respect to the target flow in the end application. The directivity of the fundamental PRT tone and that of its harmonics were studied for a variety of resonance frequencies, both separately as well as cumulatively. It was found that the fundamental part of the actuation signal radiated predominantly in the downstream direction of the jet for low resonance frequencies. As the resonance frequency was increased from 3 to 12 kHz, the directivity changed from downstream of the jet to vertically upward, and finally upstream of the jet at the higher frequencies.

Show moreSupervision of batch bioprocess operations in real-time during the progress of a batch run offers many advantages over end-of-batch quality control. Multivariate statistical techniques such as multiway partial least squares (MPLS) provide an efficient modeling and supervision framework. A new type of MPLS modeling technique that is especially suitable for online real-time process monitoring and the multivariate monitoring charts are presented. This online process monitoring technique is also extended to include predictions of end-of-batch quality measurements during the progress of a batch run. Process monitoring, quality estimation and fault diagnosis activities are automated and supervised by embedding them into a real-time knowledge-based system (RTKBS). Interpretation of multivariate charts is also automated through a generic rule-base for efficient alarm handling. The integrated RTKBS and the implementation of MPLS-based process monitoring and quality control are illustrated using a fed-batch penicillin production benchmark process simulator.

Show moreHigh initial cost is one of the major barriers for the nuclear power industry. Small modular reactors (SMR) may be a solution to this problem because they have a much smaller financial barrier. In this thesis, parametric cost estimation modeling studies have been performed for the SMR integrated reactor vessel (IRV) under a factory environment. Based on different prior fabrication experiences, three scenarios have been studied, and the corresponding possible manufacturing costs of the entire IRV and its subcomponents have been estimated. To explore the cost allocation, the total cost has been divided into five cost contributors: labor, material, tooling labor, tooling replacement, and other. The results have been analyzed and discussed.

Show moreThe main object of this research is to build up a comprehensive 3-phases transient stability simulator(TS3ph) and use it to analyze the transient stability with dynamic voltage control and protection. Detailed exciter models, SVC model and protection model are needed in this research. We have implemented detailed exciter model. We chose several exciter models which are frequently used in power system to built. These exciters can control generator terminal voltage by changing current and voltage to generator field winding. It is critical for improving the dynamic voltage performance in power system. We also built up detailed SVC model. The SVC is an important device for dynamic voltage control. It is a power electronics-based equipment containing both reactors and capacitor banks which have the capability of dynamic voltage and reactive power control. When doing the dynamic voltage control simulation, it is meaningful to have a detailed SVC model in the transient simulator. The another mission of this research is to study the protection of power system with unbalance fault or unbalance network using 3-Phase Transient Stability Simulator. In order to obtain the relay operation, we need to set up the interface between protection simulator Electrocon CAPE and transient simulator TS3ph. As unbalance fault sometimes can cause serious voltage problem during the transient, simulating the unbalance fault with realistic relay operation is important for transient stability analysis.

Show moreCompared to the rich literature on urban sprawl in Western cities, relatively little is known of the driving factors, processes, and future trends of urban sprawl in China. This research will analyze the socio-economic forces behind two parts of urban sprawl in China: urban decentralization (the creation of development zones and new towns) and urban renewal (infrastructural changes to existing urban fabrics) and reveal two basic characteristic for Chinese urban sprawl: a). de-densification; and b). expansion of urbanized areas (urban built-up areas). This proposal aims to use the term “urban sprawl” to consider the reasons behind urban land-use changes and urban pattern transformations on a regional level. It begins with definitions of sprawl in Western and Eastern countries, and follows an analysis of the social, political, and cultural factors of sprawl. Three case studies will focus on three urban centers in China: Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Still another component is data analysis with the program SPSS based on related Index for urban sprawl and sustainable development for 15 top urban regions in China during 10 years. This research has explored causes of urban sprawl in China: a). the changing residential preferences of some residents: willing to move out of the core; and b). overcrowded, deteriorated, and old-fashioned structures in central cities becoming targets for demolition in pursuing a new era of modernity, prosperity, and renaissance. Then, this research has pointed out: a). uneven land reform is the key to understand Chinese-style urban sprawl and it is also the necessary condition to the paradox posed by development zones and urbanized villages; b). China’s urban sprawl is driven by both market and government forces; and c). there are a series of new conditions for urban sprawl in China, for example: rising private automobile ownership, rising demand for space and changing residential preference, local public policy, and the real-estate industry. This research intends to provide a comprehensive definition of “urban sprawl” in China, identify the patterns of urban sprawl and growth in three urban regions (Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou), and illustrate the concepts and possible alternative strategies for green urban growth and change in China. Finally, it will offer suggestions on how to effectively control urban sprawl in China, as well as provide a pathway to achieving sustainable development.

Show moreRecent advances in radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) technology enable various innovative and versatile applications through ultra-low-power wireless link such as mesh sensor network, personal area network (PAN) and semi-active RFID. This thesis introduces energy efficient demodulator and transceiver design for wireless communications. At the receiver front end, an ultra-low-power BPSK demodulator based on injection locked oscillators (ILOs) is introduced. Two second harmonic ILOs are employed to convert BPSK signals to ASK signals, which are then demodulated by an envelope detector to baseband. For sub-GHz applications, the ILOs are implemented using ring oscillators to allow compact chip area and ultra-low power dissipation. Bit error rate (BER) analysis of this demodulator indicates erroneous polarity flipping of demodulated bits due to phase noise of the ILO. The prototype chip is fabricated in a 65nm CMOS technology that consumes 228μW of power and occupies 0.014mm2 of die area. Measurement results reveal the demodulation of 750MHz 5Mb/s differential BPSK signal with a sensitivity of -43dBm. Theoretical BER analysis has been verified with erroneous flipping observed in the measurement and its probability close to the prediction. Then, an innovative injecting locking based transceiver architecture for ultra low power operation is proposed. It applied the ILO based BPSK demodulator at the receiver side. The oscillating signal at one receiver ILO also injects to another transmitter ILO for accurate carrier generation. Thus local frequency synthesis circuit which consumes considerable portion of power in traditional transceiver is not required. This design is implemented in a 45nm CMOS SOI technology. Measurement results indicate that the transceiver achieves downlink demodulation of -35dBm BPSK signal at 5Mb/s data rate and uplink transmission of -23dBm ASK signal at 1Mb/s data rate with 0.93mA current consumption from 1V power supply.

Show moreThe LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) market model has been widely used as an industry standard model for interest rates modeling and interest rate derivatives pricing. In this thesis, a multi-curve LIBOR market model, with uncertainty described by random fields, is proposed and investigated. This new model is thus called a multi-curve random fields LIBOR market model (MRFLMM). First, the LIBOR market model is reviewed and the closed-form formulas for pricing caplets and swaptions are provided. It is extended to the case when the uncertainty terms are modeled as random fields and consequently the closed-form formulas for pricing caplets and swaptions are derived. This is a new model called the random fields LIBOR market model (RFLMM). Second, local volatility models and stochastic volatility models are combined with the RFLMM to explain the volatility skews or smiles observed in market. Closedform volatility formulas are derived via the lognormal mixture model in local volatility case, while the approximation scheme for the stochastic volatility case is obtained by a stochastic Taylor expansion method. Moreover, the above work is further extended to a multi-curve framework, where the curves for generating future forward rates and the curve for discounting cash flows are modeled distinctly but jointly. This multi-curve methodology is recently introduced lately by some pioneers to explain the inconsistency of interest rates after the 2008 credit crunch. Both LIBOR market model and RFLMM mentioned above can be categorized as models in singe-curve framework. Third, analogous to the single-curve framework, the multi-curve random fields LIBOR market model is derived and caplets and swaptions are priced with closedform formulas that can be reduced to exactly the Black’s formulas. This model is called a multi-curve random fields LIBOR market model (MRFLMM). Meanwhile, xii local volatility and stochastic volatility models are also combined with the multi-curve LIBOR market model to explain the volatility skews and smiles in the market. Fourth, the calibration of the above models is considered. Taking two-curve setting as an example, four different models, single-curve LIBOR market model, single-curve RFLMM, two-curve LIBOR market model and two-curve RFLMM are compared. The calibration is based on the spot market data on one trading day. The four models are calibrated to European cap volatility surface and swaption volatilities, given the specified parameterized form of correlation and instantaneous volatility. The calibration results show that the random fields models capture the volatility smiles better than non-random fields models and has less pricing error. Moreover, multi-curve models perform better than single-curve models, especially during/after credit crunch. Finally, the estimation of these four models, including pricing and hedging performance, is considered. The estimation uses time series of forward rates in market. Given a time series of term structure, the parameters of the four models are estimated using unscented Kalman filter (UKF). The results show that the random fields models have better estimation results than non-random fields models, with more accurate in-sample and out-sample pricing and better hedging performance. The multi-curve models also over-perform the single-curve models. In addition, it is shown theoretically and empirically that the random fields models have advantages that it is unnecessary to determine the number of factors in advance and not needed to re-calibrate. The multi-curve random fields LIBOR market model has the advantages of both multi-curve framework and random fields setting.

Show moreDiets abundant in phenolic compounds have been linked to decreased risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes. Wild blueberries (WBB) are one of the richest sources of dietary phenolic compounds, particularly anthocyanin compounds. They also contain hydroxycinnamic acids, namely chlorogenic acids (CGA). Understanding their metabolic fate may provide insight to their health benefits and protection against chronic disease development. The purpose of this study was to (1) identify WBB anthocyanin and CGA metabolites in human plasma (2) assess bioavailability and biotransformation of WBB anthocyanin and CGA in human (3) measure the acute e↵ects of WBB consumption on glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. This was a pilot study with healthy male and female volunteers (n=12). Plasma samples were collected at baseline (t=0h), 0.25h, 0.5h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h and 24h after consuming a WBB drink (25 g freeze dried WBB powder) with a standard polyphenol free breakfast. The anthocyanins in the WBB drink and their metabolites in human plasma were identified using HPLC-ESI-Q-TOF and quantified by dynamic MRM transitions on HPLC-ESI-QQQ. A total of 30 anthocyanins were identified in the WBB drink. These included glycosides of cyanidin, delphinidin, malvidin, petunidin and peonidin, which were detected in positive mode. Glucose was the most abundant glycoside attachment followed by galactose, arabinose, acetylated glucose, acetylated galactose and xylose. CGAs were also found in the WBB drink in negative mode and confirmed with standards. All the anthocyanins in the WBB drink were found in plasma as well as 3-CGA. The bioavailability for delphinidin, cyandin, malvidin, peonidin, and petunidin were each less than 1% and total bioavailability of WBB anthocyanins was 1.09%. The bioavailability for 3-CGA was 0.22% after consuming 25g WBB powder. The Tmax (time of maximum concentration was achieved) of anthocyanins and 3-CGA was ⇠2h post ingestion. Tmax of phase II metabolites, including petunidin- glucuronide, peonidin-glucuronide, delphinidin-glucuronide and cyanidin-glucuronide was 8.8, 2.6, 6.3 and 7h, respectively. Phenolic acids metabolites, including vanillic acids, ferulic acids, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, phloroglucinaldehyde, syringic acid were also detected in human plasma during the 24 h period. These results suggest that anthocyanins and CGAs from a WBB drink can be partly absorbed in their intact form in humans and partly transformed to conjugated and degraded metabolites. The data also indicate that there are early phase and late phase appearing metabolites in the blood of humans, which could have important health promoting implications. Future studies will need to be conducted to determine how these pools of metabolites impact physiology and the most sensitive systems to their e↵ect. In the present study, no significant di↵erences on glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism were apparent. This study provides a foundation for further understanding on health benefits of dietary anthocyanins and their metabolites.

Show moreNetwork research, as an experimental science, ought to be reproducible. However, it is not a standard practice to share models, methods or software code to support experimental evaluation and reproducibility when publishing a network research paper. In this work, we advocate reproducible networking experiments by building a unique testbed consisting of container-based network emulation and physical devices. The testbed provides a realistic and scalable platform for reproducing network research. The testbed supports large-scale network experiments using lightweight virtualization techniques and capable of running across distributed physical machines. We utilize the testbed to reproduce network experiments, and demonstrate the e↵ectiveness by comparing the results with the original published network experiments, such as Hedera, a scalable and adaptive traffic flow scheduling system in data center networks.

Show moreBiocompatible scaffolds mimicking the locally aligned fibrous structure of native extracellular matrix (ECM) are in high demand in tissue engineering. In this thesis research, unidirectionally aligned fibers were generated via a home-built electrospinning system. Collagen type I, as a major ECM component, was chosen in this study due to its support of cell proliferation and promotion of neuroectodermal commitment in stem cell differentiation. Synthetic dragline silk proteins, as biopolymers with remarkable tensile strength and superior elasticity, were also used as a model material. Good alignment, controllable fiber size and morphology, as well as a desirable deposition density of fibers were achieved via the optimization of solution and electrospinning parameters. The incorporation of silk proteins into collagen was found to significantly enhance mechanical properties and stability of electrospun fibers. Glutaraldehyde (GA) vapor post-treatment was demonstrated as a simple and effective way to tune the properties of collagen/silk fibers without changing their chemical composition. With 6-12 hours GA treatment, electrospun collagen/silk fibers were not only biocompatible, but could also effectively induce the polarization and neural commitment of stem cells, which were optimized on collagen rich fibers due to the unique combination of biochemical and biophysical cues imposed to cells. Taken together, electrospun collagen rich composite fibers are mechanically strong, stable and provide excellent cell adhesion. The unidirectionally aligned fibers can accelerate neural differentiation of stem cells, representing a promising therapy for neural tissue degenerative diseases and nerve injuries.

Show moreThe study of an architecture of autonomy consists of theoretical investigations into the realm of building types where a sole use or purpose is manifest in a structure that could, site provided, be constructed. However, provisions that conventional architecture traditionally provide are not present in these explorations. Technological advancements such as indoor plumbing, electric lights, and vertical conveyance systems in the form of elevators and escalators are excluded. Platonic geometric form-making are instead thoroughly investigated, imagined, and manipulated for the purposes of creating new spatial experiences. The desired resultant is an architecture of singularity, an architecture of fantastical projection. Through a series of two theoretical ritual-based investigations, three-dimensional form manipulation and construction of proportioned scale models, the essence of elements that compose a spatial experience contributed to a collection of metaphorical tools by which the designer may use to build a third imagined reality: the re-imagination of the archetypal museum. A building whose purpose is not solely to house ancient objects in a near hermetically-sealed environment, free of temperature, humidity and ultra-violet light aberrations, but is a re-imagined. A structure meant to engage the presence of two seemingly divergent communities: the local patron/visitor and the extreme distant denizen. This paper also examines key contemporary global artists’ work and their contributions to the fragmentation / demolition of architectural assemblages for thepurposes of re-evaluating the familiar vernacular urban landscape while criticallypositioning the rôle of both the artifact and gallery in shaping contemporary audience’s museum experiences. The power of the internet and live-camera broadcasting of images utilizing both digital image recording and full-scale screen-projections enable the exploration of “transporter-type” virtual-reality experiences: the ability to inhabit an art work’s presumed original in situ location, while remaining in Chicago as a visitor within a vernacular multi-tenant masonry structure: vacated, evicted, and deconstructed for the purposes of displaying art amidst a new urbane ruin.
