Abstract:
Background: People with Huntington’s disease (HD) can be affected by motor, cognitive and behavioural symptoms. The length of the illness trajectory can result in patients receiving care at home for extended periods during which the contribution from family caregivers is invaluable. There has been little research into patient or carer perspectives on needs or how these should be met, and how these correspond to professional viewpoints. Objectives: To gain an understanding of living with, caring for and working in the field of HD. Study design: A collective case study approach was used to gather data from the person with HD, their family carer and a nominated healthcare professional to build 15 cases involving 33 individuals and 115 interactions (68 interviews and 47 observations) over three years of study participation. Findings: Living with HD requires continued readjustment to maintain balance between increasing disability, diminishing cognition and living well at home. Patients and carers were challenged to cope with: the diagnosis; an impulse to secrecy and a duty to share knowledge; autonomy and decision making; the transformation of homes to hospitals; and a shift in the burden of care when the patient moved to a residential care home. Examination of services showed how multidisciplinary working, a keyworker approach, disease, person and service specific knowledge alongside continuity of staffing contribute to quality care. Conclusion: This is the first qualitative study of living with HD incorporating multiple perspectives over time. It explored the complexity of living with HD and the ways in which care can be provided in the community. The study identified a number of daily challenges for both family and professional carers when changes in capacity occur slowly over time. Holistic, multidisciplinary and flexible care is shown to be essential for those trying to balance the delicate equilibrium of living with HD. nb.

Full text
Abstract:
Working at the intersection of medical sociology and the psychology of health, language and communication, in this PhD I use thematic analysis (TA) and conversation analysis (CA) to provide an insight into various aspects of doctor-patient communication that may be considered, or are constructed as, challenging and/or delicate for either the patient, doctor or both at a Gender Identity Clinic (GIC) in the UK. This project involves the secondary analysis of two existing data-sets: (i) 21 recorded telephone interviews between my PhD supervisor and transsexual patients who attended the GIC; (ii) 156 transcribed audio-recordings and 38 video-recordings (total = 194) of psychiatrist-patient consultations in the GIC. The first original research paper uses TA to investigate the views and experiences of transsexual patients regarding their communication with psychiatrists at the GIC. An important finding was that patients actually appreciated being challenged in this setting, subsequently the implications of this are considered with regards to the achievability and desirability of patient centred communication. The second research paper uses CA to consider how patients overtly challenge psychiatrists in the GIC in ways that have not been shown in conversation analytic research on medical interactions to date. Analysis of the data corpus revealed that there were three common ways in which patients challenged psychiatrists at the GIC, which are (1) by problematising their questions; (2) by disagreeing with statements that are made regarding their treatment; (3) and by initiating complaints. The findings of this study are considered in relation to the implications that they have for clinicians and for the persistence and desirability of asymmetry in clinical interaction in light of the current debates surrounding the concept of patient-centeredness. The final research paper also uses CA, in this instance to study how the topic of weight, which is often constructed and orientated towards as delicate in talk-in-interaction, is occasioned and discussed by psychiatrists and patients at the GIC. Whereas previous CA research on this topic has focused on how this is constructed by speakers as a moral issue, this paper is concerned with focusing on how psychiatrists (1) establish with patients that their weight is an issue, (2) encourage patients to lose weight by informing them that this is their responsibility and (3) offer advice on the behavior changes associated with weight loss. The results of this paper are discussed with regards to the implications that they have for clinicians who discuss the potentially delicate topic of weight with patients in a number of different settings. This project contributes towards the growing debates regarding the achievability and desirability of patient centred communication and the persistence of asymmetry in clinical interaction. It also contributes to medical conversation analytic literature to date on asymmetry and talk about weight in clinical interactions.

Abstract:
The spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (White) (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), is a new invasive insect from Asia that is currently spreading in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US, where it has become a pest of economic concern for many industries in their invaded range. The purpose of this research was to document L. delicatula phenology in Virginia, their feeding impact to trees, and to test a rearing protocol in quarantine laboratory conditions. First, using field plots and weekly observational surveys, L. delicatula phenology was documented in 2019 and 2020 in Winchester, Virginia. I showed that L. delicatula were active from late April into November for each sampling year, and that the timing of life stage events varied only slightly between years. I also calculated cumulative average growing degree days for each life stage event using a lower developmental threshold of 10°C. Additionally, I confirmed that the host range of L. delicatula narrows as they progress through development. These results will help growers and land managers develop integrated pest management plans targeting L. delicatula. Second, dendrochronological methods were used to quantify L. delicatula feeding injury to Ailanthus altissima (Miller) Swingle (Sapindales: Simaroubaceae), Juglans nigra L. (Fagales: Juglandaceae), and Liriodendron tulipifera L. (Magnoliales: Magnoliaceae). Two sites in Pennsylvania that have experienced high populations and heavy feeding pressure from L. delicatula since 2016 were used to collect tree cores for analysis. I found evidence suggesting L. delicatula is capable of reducing the growth of A. altissima, but did not find the same evidence in the wood of the other tree species tested. Additionally, I found evidence that systemic insecticide treatments may reduce or prevent damage to A. altissima fed on by L. delicatula. Additional dendrochronological studies on the damage inflicted by L. delicatula feeding could shed light on the long-term impact of this new invasive tree pest. Lastly, a protocol for rearing L. delicatula was tested inside Virginia Tech's Insect Quarantine Laboratory. Three different cuttings of A. altissima (apical meristems, epicormic shoots, and field collected foliage) were tested to determine the best food source for L. delicatula in quarantine laboratory conditions. Overall, I did not find a significant difference between food treatments, however a greater proportion of third instars developed into fourth instars in the apical meristem treatment. I suggest future L. delicatula rearing research include the use of potted plants and/or multiple species. Though I had low success in rearing adult L. delicatula to produce egg masses, this method may prove useful for rearing early instars from eggs or sustaining field collected specimens for short durations. Research expanding our knowledge of L. delicatula will help us reach our goal of more effectively managing this pest species in the future.
Master of Science in Life Sciences
The spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (White), is a new invasive pest species impacting the eastern and northeastern regions of the United States. This insect uses its straw-like mouth parts to feed on the sap of many different plants including fruit trees, grapes, and several important ornamental and timber trees. Though they do not bite or sting, feeding can result in wilting, the growth of sooty mold, and sometimes plant mortality, making them an economic and nuisance pest in their invaded range. This research primarily focused on studying the timing of the spotted lanternfly's life cycle, feeding impact to trees, and a method for raising them in the laboratory for research purposes. The life-cycle of the spotted lanternfly was documented over two growing seasons in Winchester, VA and the timing of each life stage was shown to be similar between years. Additionally, it was confirmed that the spotted lanternfly feeds on fewer host species as it develops into an adult. Tree-ring analysis was used to identify spotted lanternfly feeding injury to tree-of-heaven, black walnut, and tulip poplar. I found evidence suggesting spotted lanternfly feeding can cause reduced growth in tree-of-heaven, but did not find similar evidence in the other species tested. A laboratory colony of spotted lanternflies would prove beneficial for additional research on this insect. I tested three different types of branches cut from the tree-of-heaven to identify the best food source for spotted lanternfly in laboratory conditions. The findings of this research will help develop pest management strategies to reduce the impact of this new pest in the US.

In the present study, six families of sulfated polysaccharides were obtained from seaweed Dictyopteris delicatula (Lamouroux, 1809) and their anticoagulant, antioxidant and antitumor activities were evaluated. All fractions showed anticoagulant activity on aPTT assay, but not on PT assay. Fractions also exhibited total antioxidant activity, superoxide radical scavenging capacity and ferric chelating property. Thus, six fractions (F0.5v, F0.7v, F1.0v, F1.3v, F1.5v e F2.0v) we obtained by proteolytic digestion, followed by acetone fractionation and molecular sieving on Sephadex G-100. Chemical analyses demonstrated that all polysaccharides contain heterofucans composed mainly of fucose, xylose, glucose, galactose, uronic acid, and sulfate. Any fractions changed the PT. However, all fractions were able on double the aPPT on a dose-dependent manner. The heterofucans F0.7v and F1.0v showed low anticoagulant activity while F1.5v presented the most prominent anticoagulant activity .When compared to Clexane?, a low molecular weight heparin, at same concentration F1.5v presented similar anticoagulant activity. The fucans F0.5v and F0.7v at 1.0 mg/mL showed high ferric chelating activity (~45%), whereas fucans F1.3v (0.5 mg/mL) showed considerable reducing power, about 53.2% of the activity of vitamin C. The fucan F1.5v presented the most prominent anticoagulant activity. The best antiproliferative activity was found with fucans F1.3v and F0.7v. However, F1.3v activity was much higher than F0.7v inhibiting almost 100% of HeLa cell proliferation. These fucans have been selected for further studies on structural characterization as well as in vivo experiments, which are already in progress

Todas as fra??es apresentaram atividade anticoagulante frente ao ensaio de aPTT, mas n?o sobre o ensaio de PT. As heterofucanas exibiram atividade antioxidante total, capacidade em sequestrar radicais super?xido e propriedade de quelar ferro. As an?lises qu?micas demonstraram que todos os polissacar?deos cont?m heterofucanas composta principalmente por fucose, xilose, glicose, galactose, ?cido ur?nico, e sulfato. Nenhuma das fra??es alterou o PT. Entretanto, todas as fra??es foram capazes de dobrar o aPTT de uma maneira dose dependente. As heterofucanas F0.7v e F1.0v demonstraram baixa atividade anticoagulante, enquanto a F1.5v apresentou a maior atividade anticoagulante e quando comparada com Clexane?, uma heparina de baixo peso molecular, em mesma concentra??o, apresentou antividade anticoagulante semelhante. As fucanas F0.5v e F0.7v a 1,0 mg/mL mostraram alta atividade de quela??o ferica (~ 45%), enquanto a fucana F1.3v (0,5 mg/mL) mostrou consider?vel potencial redutor, cerca de 53,2% da atividade da vitamina C. A melhor atividade antitumoral foi encontrada nas fucanas F1.3v e F0.7v. No entanto, a atividade F1.3v foi muito superior a F0,7v, quase 100% de inibi??o da prolifera??o de c?lulas HeLa (c?lula de c?ncer de colo de ?tero).

Abstract:
Many substances derived from human activity end up in wastewater systems at some point. A large number of different substances - up to 30,000 - are present in wastewater. Some of them are valuable, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, but there are also hazardous substances such as heavy metals and anthropogenic organic substances. To be able to utilise the wastewater nutrients on arable land (agriculture, forestry or other alternatives), it is of great importance to investigate the sources of hazardous substances in wastewater and the human activities and attitudes that brings these different substances into the wastewater systems. For management of wastewater residues it is therefore important to be able to assess both the benefits and the risks from such products. Residues from wastewater are complex mixtures of substances, which demand a multi-sided approach for solving the problem as a whole.

Abstract:
Severe slugging control in offshore riser is an important aspect of flow assurance, if not well controlled, normal production could be interrupted and jeopardized. In this paper, firstly mitigation methods for severe slugging used in different oilfields are investigated, and their pros&cons, on-site applications and application scope are summarized. Then three severe slugging control methods adopted by CNOOC are introduced, respectively GLCC separation, auto choking, as well as gas lift. GLCC combined with the original slug catcher has solved the slug problem of the QK17-2 Oilfield, saving a lot of space and money. A set of online monitoring and auto-choking system was successfully installed and applied in WC Oilfield, contributing a lot to the production stability and production rate. The delicately designed gas lift annulus and gas injection system are expected to mitigate severe slugging and boost production of a west Africa deepwater oilfield co-explored by CNOOC. The introduction of these on-site cases will be of some value to for future design and analysis of severe slugging control for oil and gas fields.

Abstract:
Abstract Autonomous vehicles sense the environment and act accordingly using modern electronic and mechanical components. Although these subsystems and components are delicately designed and manufactured, uncertainties in real-world vehicle operations could cause various undesirable performance deviations or even failure. In this work, we study the impact of component uncertainties on vehicle overtaking maneuver, one of the most common actions in traffic. A model is built to simulate the flow of information and the actions of each component in the control strategy of overtaking. Possible variations of major components are investigated. The impact of uncertainties on the overtaking maneuver are first analyzed. Based on the results, we see that the angle resolution of the distance-detecting device has the biggest impact while the angular velocity-detecting device has relatively small influence. While the control strategy changes, we also observe the impact swifts. Therefore, one could systematically use the existing uncertainty to see how output performance changes by using the proposed model; alternatively, one could also study the robustness of the control strategy under uncertainties.

Abstract:
Abstract This study puts forward a metasurface design which allows the flexible tuning of the elastic wave propagation path, enabling the interrogating wave field guiding into desired monitoring regions for damage detection. As a demonstrative case study, the metasurface plate contains a rectangular array of unit cells sitting in an aluminum plate. Each unit cell is comprised of a shape memory alloy substrate and a lead stub. The controllable bandgap of such a metamaterial system can be achieved due to the stiffness change of nitinol between its martensite phase and austenite phase under a thermal load. First, a Finite Element Model (FEM) of the unit cell is constructed to calculate the band structure of the metasurface plate, demonstrating the adjustable bandgap behavior. Then, numerical modeling of the metamaterial waveguide is performed by shifting the bandgap of a specific path of the metasurface away from the excitation frequency. The modeling results demonstrate that the martensite metasurface area forms a bandgap region where guided wave energy cannot penetrate. While, the bandgap of the austenite part shifts away from the excitation frequency, opening up a transmission path for the ultrasonic waves. By delicately selecting the austenite state unit cell path, four ‘S’, ‘J’, ‘T’, ‘U’ shaped routes with a fine resolution are tailored to show a SJTU logo, demonstrating the excellent waveguiding capability and the programmable waveguide feature of this shape memory metamaterial system. The proposed tunable waveguiding methodology possesses great application potential in future Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) applications.

Abstract:
Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) systems generally adopt piezoelectric transducers which emit omnidirectional wave fields. The achievement of directionality of guided wave generation will benefit the structural sensing purpose, which allows better detection and localization of the damage sites. In this study, a type of metamaterial ultrasonic radar is proposed for the steerable unidirectional wave manipulation. It contains a circular array of unit cells stuck in an aluminum plate which are delicately arranged in a circular fashion. Each unit cell is composed of a shape memory alloy substrate and a lead stub. The controllable bandgap of such metamaterial system can be achieved due to the stiffness change of nitinol between its martensite phase and austenite phase under a thermal load. This research starts with a Finite Element Model (FEM) of the unit cell to compute its frequency-wavenumber domain dispersion characteristics, demonstrating the adjustable bandgap feature. Then, numerical modeling of the metamaterial radar is performed by shifting the bandgap of one sector of the metasurface away from the excitation frequency. The modeling results demonstrate that the martensite phase metasurface area forms a bandgap region where guided wave energy cannot penetrate, while the bandgap of the austenite sector shifts away from the excitation frequency, opening up a transmission path for the ultrasonic waves. By rotating the austenite sector, the metamaterial structure can work like a wave emission radar, realizing of the steerable unidirectional wave radiation with a single transducer. Such an active metasurface possesses great application potential in future SHM and NDE systems.
