▼ The study of urban and societal collapse has long been an area of scientific, historical and cultural interest. In recent years this interest in collapse, and its corollary resilience, has increased in line with growing scientific, political, cultural and general concerns over energy, food and water resources, social unrest, and the impacts of disasters and climate change on urban environments. This cross-disciplinary thesis should be seen as fitting clearly into this theoretical tradition of futurist ‘collapse studies’ and thus incorporates elements of the physical sciences and the history of science, complexity science and military theory into a more clearly social science concern with the promotion of urban resilience. The purpose of this thesis is to propose the conscious simplification of elements of our contemporary complex cities to improve their resilience to both sudden disruptions and slower trends such as climate change and resource depletion. It takes a broadly thermodynamic approach, being based heavily upon Tainter’s work (1990) on the energy costs of social and technological complexity and the resultant tendency of such complex systems to collapse. It then contributes an original synthesis of Tainter’s dynamic of collapse with the Panarchy model of adaptive change (Gunderson & Holling, 2002). Finally, it considers the fragility implied by such complexity in and of itself (such as the danger of cascading failures). Importantly, this thesis acknowledges that any program of conscious simplification implies a philosophical, cultural and thus political (rather than technological) challenge. This is because it proposes a rejection of the Wall; the utopian/positivist technophilia which sees ever more complex socio-technological systems as the (eventual if not currently actual) solution for the challenges facing modern cities. Instead, this thesis suggests a more ‘humble’ approach to complex systems like contemporary cities, in which notions of ‘complete’ or absolute predictability or resilience are rejected. To this end, it briefly examines some of the philosophical debates in military theory around technological complexity and decision-making in environments of radical uncertainty. In the light of these discussions, this thesis makes six ‘humble’ recommendations for the simplification of particular urban systems. After outlining its approach of conscious urban simplification, this thesis acknowledges the challenges such a program implies. Contemporary complex cities display a wide range of path dependencies (political, cultural, economic, organisational and environmental) which constrain them within orthodox narratives of development. However, this thesis takes a strongly social constructivist approach (Bourdieu, 1995) to urban path dependency, arguing that the promotion of heterodox narratives of urban development can overcome such inertia. Three such narratives are proposed: alternative modes of…

▼ Theory in archaeology often concentrates on the “rise” or “collapse” of civilizations, while periods of instability following collapse have been underresearched. This is especially true in Bolivia’s southern Titicaca basin, where previous investigations have focused on the growth, expansion, and collapse of Tiwanaku. The goal of this dissertation was to use the large settlement of Pukara de Khonkho (located just 25 km south of Tiwanaku) as a test case to examine post-collapse community development and to clarify the local chronology, specifically considering the roles of population movement and intercommunity interaction. The research expands a body of literature on the archaeology of communities, a frame which is especially useful given the local nature of post-collapse developments. Pukara de Khonkho was examined through a multifaceted program of archaeological excavation, mapping, and artifact analysis. In order to put the site in regional and temporal context, additional research was conducted into Late Intermediate Period components at the nearby site of Khonkho Wankane and the Inca-Colonial site of Ch’aucha de Khula Marka. The major analytic focus was on a study of ceramics, including the creation of a new local typology. This new data provides a more nuanced understanding than was previously possible of Late Intermediate Period occupation in the southern Titicaca Basin and illustrates the broader value of post-collapse studies. Following Tiwanaku collapse (ca. 1150 AD), the ceremonial centers of the altiplano were virtually abandoned, giving way to smaller, ephemeral settlements, including ritual and quotidian use of pre-Tiwanaku sites like Khonkho Wankane. Research conducted for this dissertation has demonstrated that around 1300 AD some of these scattered populations began to come together at Pukara de Khonkho. Investigations illustrated that the site was well-integrated into the local landscape, with clearly defined areas for ritual, mortuary, domestic, and agricultural purposes as well as a shared pattern of material culture. The site was abruptly abandoned around the time of Inca conquest. Advisors/Committee Members: Steven Wernke (committee member), Daniel H. Usner (committee member), Tiffiny A.

▼ Ethanol is currently being considered as a potential alternative to traditional fuels. However, the fuel offers a low return in terms of energy output per dollar invested when compared to fossil fuels. More than 1/3 of the cost associated with bio-ethanol production is devoted to distillation and water removal. This study seeks to validate the use of hydrous ethanol as a practical fuel to be used in lieu of fossil fuels or anhydrous ethanol. Success would reduce the production cost associated with ethanol fuel. Hydrous ethanol was burned in a swirl-stabilized combustor, air is introduced at a constant flow rate through a dump diffuser, and fuels ranging from 0%-40% water by volume was tested for practicality. A stable flame was achieved with up to 35% water and the Lean Blow Out limit was determined for these fuels. Fuels ranging from 0% to 20% water were tested in greater detail. This included thermal mapping of the flame, exhaust temperature measurements, exhaust NOx, CO2, and O2 measurement, as well as CH* and OH* imaging of the low-flame region. Equivalence ratio was varied to include test points at 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.1. This range provides insight into flame behavior at extremely lean, lean, stoichiometric, and rich test conditions. Results revealed that exhaust heat rate, combustion efficiency, and combustor thermal efficiency were not affected negatively by elevated water content. However, flame temperature decreased as a result of water addition, particularly in the low flame region. CH*/OH* emissions in the low-flame region were also reduced due to the parasitic heat load of water vaporization and local quenching. The practical consequence of burning hydrous fuel was reduced exhaust temperature. This negative consequence, coupled with the desirable consequence of increased mass flow rate, did not appreciably affect the net exhaust heat rate. Reduced peak temperatures lead to exhaust NOx reductions. In conclusion, this study reveals that ethanol with proof as low as 140 behaves as a practical fuel and is recommended as a means of increasing the economic return when using ethanol as fuel in situations where increased volumetric consumption of the fuel is acceptable.

▼ The archaeological site of Fracción Mujular is composed of several small residential plaza groups and a monumental ballcourt located near the Pacific Coast of Chiapas, Mexico. Long known for the Central Mexican iconography found on its carved stelae (Navarrete 1976, 1986; García-Des Lauriers 2005, 2007, 2016; Taube 2000), the survey and excavations conducted during the course of this dissertation represent the first extensive and systematic investigations of the site. Situated on top of the mountain of Cerro Bernal between the Pacific Coast and the Sierra Madre de Chiapas, the residents of Fracción Mujular would have had close access to important trading routes used throughout Mesoamerica’s history. My analysis of the site’s ceramics, obsidian, and other excavated artifacts shows a long history of interaction with both local and distant polities from across Mesoamerica. We now know that Fracción Mujular was occupied from the Early Classic through Late Postclassic and that the site’s inhabitants maintained strong ties to Central Mexico throughout these periods, including during times of considerable political upheaval. Fracción Mujular outlasted its larger neighbor of Los Horcones, entering a period of florescence following that latter site’s decline at the end of the Early Classic. An analysis of the ceramics of Los Horcones emphasizes the site’s long chronology, as well as its history of regional interaction. Obsidian sourcing from Fracción Mujular indicates that the settlement had access through trade to at least 11 different sources from across Mexico and Guatemala; a very high level of diversity for such a modest site. Obsidian source distributions also display a strong spatial and temporal pattern throughout the settlement, which may correspond to regional political and economic shifts during the Early Classic to Late Classic transition. Work at Fracción Mujular shows how small-scale settlements can be active players in regional exchange systems while displaying considerable resiliency in the face changing political and economic landscapes.

▼ This thesis investigates the WCSPH model by considering fluid entry and exit, and integrates the WCSPH method into a new, novel, particle-based Bluff Morphology Model (BMM). Using the BMM, this thesis investigates the stability, collapse and equilibrium position of soft coastal bluffs (cliffs). Fluid and floating object interaction using a novel adaptation of the WCSPH method is investigated by incorporating a floating object model. In particular, this thesis examines the water impact, hydrodynamic forces, fluid motions, and movement of objects in the conventional case studies of object entry and exit from still water. A two-dimensional wedge drop analysis was examined, and the hydrodynamic forces show acceptable agreement with published experimental and numerical results. Simulations for water entry and exit of a buoyant and neutral density cylinder compares well with the previous experimental, numerical and empirical studies. These results provide a good foundation to evaluate the accuracy and stability of WCSPH for modelling complex flows, and therefore offers a platform for the use of WCSPH in a Bluff Morphology Model. The BMM combines a multiple wedge displacement method with an adapted Weakly Compressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (WCSPH) method. At first the wedge method is applied to compute the stability of the bluff. Once the critical failure mechanism of the bluff slope has been identified, if the Factor of Safety for the mechanism is less than 1, the adapted WCSPH method is used to predict the failure movement and residual shape of the slope. The model is validated against benchmark test cases of bluff stability for purely frictional, purely cohesive, and mixed strength bluff materials including 2D static water tables. The model predictions give a good correlation with the expected values, with medium resolution models producing errors of typically less than 2.0%. In addition, the prediction of lateral movement of a surveyed cliff and the dynamic collapse of a vertical bluff are computed, and compare well with published literature. This model is further extended to then investigate the effect of two dimensional seepage on the stability and collapse of soil slopes and levees. To incorporate the seepage in the model, Darcy’s Law is applied to the interactions among neighbouring soil particles and ghost particles are introduced along the enclosed soil boundary to ensure that no fluid crosses the boundary. The contribution of partially saturated soils and matric suction, as well as the change in hydraulic conductivity due to seepage, are predicted well by this model. The predicted time evolution of slope stability and seepage induced collapse are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results for homogeneous frictional sand and multiple layered cohesive soils. Rapid drawdown over a sand soil is also investigated, and the location and time of the levee collapse occurrence are captured well. A toe erosion model is incorporated within the numerical model, and the location and quantity of erosion…

▼ The shock-induced collapse of nanobubbles in water is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations based on a reactive force field. Monitoring the collapse of a cavitation nanobubble, we observe a focused nanojet at the onset of bubble shrinkage and a water hammer shock wave upon bubble collapse. The nanojet length scales linearly with the nanobubble radius, as observed in experiments on micron-to-millimeter size bubbles. The shock induces dramatic structural changes, including an ice-VII-like structural motif at a particle velocity of approximately 1 km/s. The incipient ice VII formation and the calculated Hugoniot curve are in good agreement with experimental results. Moreover, a substantial number of positive and negative ions appear when the nanojet hits the distal side of the nanobubble and the water hammer shock forms. Furthermore, two promising applications of shock-induced nanobubble collapse have been explored. Our simulations of poration in lipid bilayers due to shock-induced collapse of nanobubbles reveal penetration of nanojets into lipid bilayers. The nanojet impact generates shear flow of water on bilayer leaflets and pressure gradients across them, which transiently enhance the bilayer permeability by creating nanopores through which water molecules translocate across the bilayer. The effects of nanobubble size and temperature on the porosity of lipid bilayers are examined. Finally, the shock-induced collapse of CO2-filled nanobubbles in water is investigated. The energetic nanojet and high-pressure water hammer shock formed during and after collapse of the nanobubble trigger mechano-chemical H2O-CO2 reactions, some of which lead to splitting of water molecules. The dominant pathways through which splitting of water molecules occur are identified.

▼ In this thesis the author reports his collaborative efforts on two distinct areas of research that has been conducted. The first part of the thesis pertains to the author and his collaborators research on a particular class of organic magnets called the bimetallic oxalates. The main theme of this research was to predict magnetic compensation (magnetization reversal) in unsynthesized bimetallic oxalate structures, motivated by experiments which showed that Fe(II)Fe(III) exhibited magnetic compensation. In addition it was known that a large amount of anisotropy was present in the bimetallic oxalate structure which resulted from the intermediate oxalate molecules between the transition metal ions which would drastically change the angular momentum of the transition metals. Consequently, because of the large anisotropy, we predicted that, if neutron diffraction measurements were performed on these materials, a spin-wave gap would exist of the order of 7.8 meV. The second half of this thesis is devoted to the author's and his collaborators' research on the cerium volume collapse. Until 2004 the collapse was largely believed to be understood as the result of Kondo screening of the local moment in cerium. However in 2004 it was realized that, in addition to a large Kondo effect driving the cerium volume collapse, the phonon frequency was very different between the large and small volume phases, and consequently the change in phonon frequency was the direct result of large electron-phonon correlations. This upset the apple cart of Kondo correlation being solely responsible for the volume collapse in cerium, and the change in phonon frequency must be accounted for to accurately describe the cerium volume collapse. To this end the author and his collaborators' developed a model which would include both of the correlations (Kondo and phononic) in the volume collapse. To analyze this model we used Dynamical Mean Field Theory in conjunction with Continuous Time Quantum Monte Carlo. What we found in our simulations was that the small volume Kondo phase was drastically influenced by the presence of the electron-phonon correlations.

The political figures that were elected to lead the people of Central Asia do not represent a new generation of leaders. With the Kyrgyz Republic as an exception the Central Asian leadership derives from the old order of the state apparatus. For the rivalries in Central Asia responsibility falls on Russia and on nationalist animosity among the peoples of Central Asia. Central Asia should not be considered as a homogenous zone of Muslim nations. The plurality of the region may only be understood through the realization of the differences between the various nations living there. Economically the five republics of Central Asia have not reached the potential that their energy rich resources allow for. Gas and oil reserves in Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan provide investment value to the whole area but Central Asian economies function in such a way as to deter further interest. Russia has enjoyed the luxury of proximity in redefining its relations with the Central Asian Republics. In contrast to the nationalist backlash registered in other countries such as Moldova and Ukraine after the dissolution of the USSR the Central Asian Republics have accepted Russian hegemony in the area. Post Soviet Central Asia continues to resemble Soviet Central Asia with Russian influence being welcomed. This comes into contrast with the area in the Caucasus where Russian military presence adds to the overall environment of instability. An important question left for future studies to answer is if the desired political changes in the area should be based on social modernization or on the capitalizing of existing means of social management. We tend to believe that the second choice is closer to a solution for Central Asia’s pass to modernity. […]

▼ Cystine-stabilized peptides are promising prospects for the pharmaceutical industry as biologics. These peptides carry out a variety of useful functions which could be exploited to treat diseases and kill unwanted organisms. As well, an array of disulfide bonds makes the peptides highly stable against temperature, enzymatic degradation, pH and other adverse physiological conditions. There is a vast number of cystine-stabilized peptides serving as antimicrobial peptides, immunological modulators, ion channel blockers and other functions across a wide array of taxa, from fungi and bacteria to plants and humans. Practical access to these promising bioactive molecules could be greatly accelerated if it were possible to efficiently mine cystine-stabilized peptide sequences from genomic databases, determine the function and structure of each candidate from only the primary sequence, and then express the top candidates in E. coli for biological analysis. In this way, only the natural, presumably functional, variants of a particular family of cystine-stabilized peptides could be collected in large quantities. Going further, it would be desirable to convert the nonspecific activity of antimicrobial peptides to a specific activity, targeting a specific pathogen and leaving the rest of the microbiome intact; in essence, developing a targeted antibiotic. To contribute to developing this pipeline, I developed the machine learningassisted algorithms PredSTP and CSPred to predict structural and functional characteristics, respectively, of cystine-stabilized peptides from primary sequence data. In addition, I developed an E. coli-based expression system for high yield production of recombinant antimicrobial peptides specifically targeted to Staphylococcus aureus. These techniques are now available to collect large libraries of cysteine-stabilized peptide sequences, to express top candidates in E. coli, and to target the peptides to specific pathogens.

▼ A Novel Anti-Diabetic Peptide Nanomedicine Against Pancreatogenic Diabetes Amrita Banerjee, Ph.D. Department of Biopharmaceutical Sciences University of Illinois at Chicago Chicago, Illinois (2012) Dissertation Chairperson: Hayat Onyuksel, Ph.D. Pancreatogenic diabetes (PD) is a potentially fatal disease that occur secondary to pancreatic disorders such as chronic pancreatitits. The current anti-diabetic therapy for PD is fraught with many adverse effects that can increase morbidity. This research is geared towards the development of a novel peptide nanomedicine: pancreatic polypeptide (PP) in sterically stabilized micelles (SSM) for management of PD. PP is a hormone secreted by the pancreas mostly post-prandially and has well documented anti-diabetic efficacy. The peptide is known to reverse hepatic insulin sensitivity and improve glucose tolerance. However, the short plasma half-life of PP limits its therapeutic application. In order to prolong and improve the activity of PP in vivo, we proposed to deliver the peptide in SSM. The hypothesis of our research was that PP would self-associate with SSM to form a novel peptide nanomedicine and demonstrate effective anti-diabetic activity against pancreatogenic diabetes. We have successfully prepared the formulation of PP in SSM (PP-SSM) and characterized it in terms of its saturation molar ratio of association with phospholipid micelles, particle size distribution, conformation as well as stability of the formulation towards both freeze-drying and against proteolytic degradation. We observed that presence or absence of sodium chloride in aqueous media dictated the association of PP with SSM, the particle size distribution and the stability of the formulation towards lyophilization. PP retained its native conformation in SSM and the micelle associated peptide was more stable to proteolytic degradation than free peptide in buffer. Through in vitro cell studies we found that PP in SSM exhibited similar bioactivity as peptide in buffer. Results from in vivo experiments involving administration of PP-SSM to rodent model of PD indicated that PP-SSM significantly improved glucose tolerance, hepatic insulin sensitivity and increased hepatic glycogen content as compared to PP in buffer. The results of the study established the importance of micellar nanocarriers in protecting enzyme-labile peptides in vivo and delivering them to the target site, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy of these biomolecules. In summary, PP-SSM demonstrated promising anti-diabetic efficacy and therefore the nanomedicine should be further developed for effective management of pancreatogenic diabetes in the clinics.

▼ The design and quality of the chemically-stabilized subgrade (CSS) layer have a vital role in the overall performance of the asphalt pavement. Uniform compaction of the CSS layer to the desired level can assure the amenability to design considerations. In the field, the last occasion of increasing the CSS quality is roller compaction. In the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide (M-EPDG), the response of subgrade soils is represented in terms of resilient modulus (Mr). However, using chemical stabilizers such as cement kiln dust (CKD) and lime, makes the flexural behavior of subgrades more dominant, compared to untreated subgrades. Consequently, it is important to consider the flexural behavior of a CSS layer in pavement design. In this study, the application of the Intelligent Compaction Analyzer (ICA), developed at the University of Oklahoma, in quality control and quality improvement of CSS layers is addressed. Also, the flexural properties of chemically-stabilized soil and influence of different parameters, such as type and amount of the additive, tensile strain at failure and flexural modulus, on the fatigue life of the CSS is evaluated. The CSS layer in four different pavement construction projects were compacted using ICA-equipped smooth drum rollers. For each project, the CSS moduli through the entire construction stretch were estimated in real-time and compared with the laboratory Mr test results. The results showed that the ICA was able to estimate the modulus of the stabilized subgrade with accuracy suitable for the control of compaction quality. Project results demonstrate that the ICA was helpful in identifying and remediating the under-compacted regions in stabilized subgrades. It was also found that the average subgrade modulus and overall uniformity of compaction could be improved with the use of the ICA. Additionally, to evaluate the flexural properties of the CSS, specimens of a lean clay soil mixed with different types (CKD and lime) and amounts of additive, were prepared. Modulus of rupture (MoR), flexural modulus and four point flexural fatigue (FPFF) tests on beam specimens were conducted. The laboratory results indicated that the flexural strength and flexural modulus of the chemically-stabilized soil increased due to an increase in the amount of additive. The increase was more significant for CKD-stabilized soil compared to lime-stabilized soil. Also, for a specific additive type, mixtures with the highest strain at failure possess the highest fatigue life. The results of MoR and FPFF tests were used to develop a fatigue life prediction model based on flexural properties, i.e., flexural modulus, tensile strain at failure and induced tensile strain at the bottom of the chemically-stabilized beam. The suggested model could predict the fatigue life of the tested mixtures and the mixtures reported in the literature with a good accuracy compared to the proposed models in the previous studies. Another important aspect of this study was to study the effect of considering the flexural properties… Advisors/Committee Members: Zaman, Musharraf (advisor), Commuri, Sesh (committee member), Hatami, Kianoosh (committee member), Miller, Gerald (committee member), Chen, Dar-Hao (committee member).
