▼ This thesis compares the theories of intercultural researchers Michael Agar and Gary P. Ferraro about language in the context of culture
shock with five German handbooks for prospective exchange students. In Agar’s and Ferraro’s view, there is insufficient attention for language use in these handbooks. Chapter 1 explores the theoretical background of the topics Culture and Language, Culture and Language
Shock, and the topic Culture, Language and Identity. Chapter 2 analyzes the general approach of the five German handbooks for future sojourners. Chapter 3 compares the handbooks with intercultural theory from Agar and Ferraro. The handbooks are analyzed with the aspects Culture and Language, Culture and Language
Shock, Culture Language and Identity, Register, Linguistic Styles, and Spoken Language. Finally, an evaluation is made of how well the handbooks can prepare prospective foreign students for their time abroad, and what could be improved.

▼ Footwear is designed and promoted to meet the
demands of the variety of movements and improve the ambulatory
functions of the human feet The design of footwear is a complex
multidisciplinary task spanning the fields of mathematics
thermodynamics mechanical engineering physics chemistry fashion
among others The important variables to be accounted for in a good
footwear design include the ground reaction forces on shoe impact
for force attenuation and shock absorption muscle activation
patterns based on foot landing strategies stress strain profiles
pressure distribution force vectors and coefficient of friction
environmental ambience around the foot torsional properties and
their effect on shoe flexibility and energy expenditure While the
aforementioned variables are vital for shoe design the comfort of a
shoe and proper foot health is ensured by a proper last 3D
representation of a foot To arrive at the last parameters it is
imperative that a foot measurement survey be carried out and
anthropometric investigations of the feet be undertaken Statistical
techniques play a major role in this study as it is impossible to
measure each and every person newlineIn the footwear industry it is
essential to have statistical data of the proportions of the foot
of the local population This is essential for last development as
lasts designed and manufactured in other countries cannot serve
their purpose in India owing to differences in population climate
wearing conditions urbanization etc It is therefore imperative to
conduct a nationwide survey for reliable data on foot proportion
This thesis aimed to characterize the foot dimensions of the Indian

▼ A set of numerical simulations designed to study the laminar,
shock-shock interactions from hypersonic flows about a double wedge configuration for the Hypervelocity Expansion Tube (HET) facility are presented.
Computations are made using the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method, an approach for modeling finite-Knudsen number flows.
The current study focuses on the investigation of Mach 7 nitrogen flows about a 30-/55-deg double wedge model for stagnation enthalpies varying from 2.0-8.0 MJ/kg.
The simulation results of the double wedge flows are compared with the data obtained from experiments at HET.
Numerical Schlierens are generated to visualize the
shock structure and
shock-shock interactions present in these flows and are compared with the experimental Schlieren images.
The computed heat transfer values from the simulations match the experiment along the first surface, but on the second wedge the computed heat transfer distribution overpredicts the measured peak values.
The influence of different models for nonequilibrium nitrogen dissociation, rotational and vibrational relaxation rates, and gas-surface interactions on the
shock interaction region are analyzed for high enthalpy flow features and heat transfer rates.
Overall good agreement is observed in the experimental and computational results. Unsteadiness of the flow and time-averaging of the experimental measurements are likely reasons for the inability of the DSMC simulations to exactly reproduce the experimental data.

▼ The growing requirements to achieve hypersonic flights, as in the case of reentry vehicles, pose a serious challenge to the designers. This demands an understanding of the features of hypersonic flow and its effect on hypersonic vehicles. Hypersonic
shock tunnels are one of the most widely used facilities for the purpose of obtaining valuable design data by conducting experiments on scaled down models. They are operated by conventional
shock tubes by rupturing metal diaphragms placed between the driver and driven sections of the
shock tube.
Shock tunnels are being extensively used in spite of some of the drawbacks they possess. Due to the varying nature of metal diaphragm rupture, reproducibility of the experiment results is difficult to obtain. Damage to model and inner surface of the
shock tube can happen when the diaphragm petal breaks away from the diaphragm. Lastly the time consuming diaphragm replacement process is not desired in applications which require quick loading of
shock waves on the specimen. All these disadvantages call for the replacement of the diaphragm mode of operation with a diaphragmless mode of operation for the generation of
shock waves. The main objective of the present study is to design and demonstrate the working of a diaphragmless hypersonic
shock tunnel. The motivation for the present study comes from the fact that the diaphragmless operation of a
shock tunnel has not been reported so far in the open literature. All the research works carried out deal with diaphragmless drivers operating only a
shock tube. In the present work, the conventional metal diaphragm is substituted by fast acting pneumatic valves which serve the purpose of quickly opening the driven section of the
shock tube to allow the driver gas to rush in, resulting in the formation of a
shock wave. To design a diaphragmless driver, a detailed study of the
shock formation process is accomplished which helps in understanding the effect of valve opening time on the
shock formation distance. Also the theoretical basis for the design of a pneumatic cylinder is understood. Following the theoretical studies, three types of diaphragmless drivers are designed and tested. The first setup incorporates a rubber membrane, which acts as a valve. The rubber membrane when bulged closes the mouth of the driven section and on retraction the driven section is opened to the driver gas. The second and the third setups utilise two different types of double acting pneumatic cylinders. Experimental results of the three diaphragmless drivers operating a
shock tube are analysed and compared with the ideal
shock tube theory. Better repeatability in terms of
shock Mach number is shown with all three diaphragmless
shock tubes when compared with a conventionally operated
shock tube. Finally, the best among the three systems is identified to operate the hypersonic
shock tunnel 2 (HST2) facility of the
Shock Waves laboratory, IISc. Demonstration of the working of the diaphragmless
shock tunnel is shown by performing heat transfer measurements on a 3 mm…

▼ High-speed particle dispersion research is motivated by the energy release enhancement of explosives containing solid particles. In the initial explosive dispersal, a dense gas-solid flow can exist where the physics of phase interactions are not well understood. A dense particle flow is generated by the interaction of a shock wave with an initially stationary packed granular bed. The initial packed granular bed is produced by compressing loose aluminum oxide powder into a 6.35 mm thick wafer with a particle volume fraction of 0.48. The wafer is positioned inside the shock tube, uniformly filling the entire cross-section. This results in a clean experiment where no flow obstructing support structures are present. Through high-speed shadowgraph imaging and pressure measurements along the length of the channel, detailed information about the particle-shock interaction was obtained. Due to the limited strength of the Mach 2 incident shock wave, no transmitted shock wave is produced. The initial “solid-like” response of the particle wafer acceleration forms a series of compression waves that coalesce to form a shock wave. Breakup is initiated along the periphery of the wafer as the result of shear that forms due to the fixed boundary condition. Particle break-up starts at local failure sites that result in the formation of particle jets that extend ahead of the accelerating, largely intact, wafer core. In a circular tube the failure sites are uniformly distributed along the wafer circumference. In a square channel, the failure sites, and the subsequent particle jets, initially form at the corners due to the enhanced shear. The wafer breakup subsequently spreads to the edges forming a highly non-uniform particle cloud.

▼ Using the Structural Vector Autoregression (SVAR) method, this paper analyses the impact of
domestic credit
shock on Ethiopian economy for the period 1998 to 2013 using quarterly data.
Totally six variables are included in our VAR model, four from domestic economy and two from
external economy. A number of restrictions were imposed on the contemporaneous relationship of
variables to identify the unique dynamic response of inflation and output to the credit innovations.
As a result, these shocks were used to generate the structural impulse response and forecast error
variance decomposition functions for assessing the dynamic impacts of credit
shock on country’s
real gross domestic product and CPI. The impulse response shows that positive credit
shock affect
CPI positively for long period of time (about five year)and affect real GDP negatively at the
beginning (output puzzle) and then positively after third quarter. Whereas, variance decomposition
found that the own innovation of domestic variables, except domestic credit, has the highest
proportion both in short-term and long-term forecast error. Innovations of CPI take the highest
proportion in explaining forecast error of domestic credit relative to other endogenous variables.
Based on the find of the study policy implication forwarded are, taking into account the relative
impact of credit
shock on output and price monetary policy can stimulate output and stabilize price
through instruments that affect credit of banking system.

▼ The attenuation mechanism of
shock waves of arbitrary strength propagating in air has been reasonably well understood. On the other hand, very little is known about the precise mechanism of
shock wave attenuation and energy dissipation in liquids. The equation of state for
shock propagation in water is empirical in nature and considerable differences exist with reference to the exact value of various constants even in the cast of Tait’ s equation of state, which is popularly used by researchers to describe the
shock wave propagating through water. In recent times, considerable attention is being focused by researchers on
shock wave attenuation and associated features in liquid medium mainly in the backdrop of development of many innovative industrial applications of
shock waves. The present study focuses on generating reliable experimental data on
shock wave attenuation in liquids of different viscosity. Experiments have been performed in a conventional vertical
shock tube and a modified diaphragmless
shock tube to understand how
shock wave of requisite strength attenuates in liquids. A new vertical
shock
tube was designed, fabricated and successfully tested in the laboratory as a part of this study. In this new facility
shock loading experiments with liquids or any complex fluid medium can be carried out. In the present study five liquids (Water, Castor Oil, Sodium Chloride (10%NaCl aqueous solution), Kerosene and Glycerin) have been subjected to
shock wave loading. Exhaustive static pressure measurements in the liquid medium have been carried out to understand the attenuation characteristics of
shock waves. The validity of Taits equation state has been experimentally verified for water. Based on the experimental results modified Taits equation of state has been obtained for castor oil, sodium chloride, kerosene and glycerin. Illustrative theoretical study is also carried out to complement the experiments.

▼ Two aspects of detonation dynamics are addressed in this thesis by articles. The first part of the thesis investigates shock reflection phenomena believed to be responsible for enhancing reaction rates in detonations, namely Kelvin-Helmholtz instability and Mach stem bifurcation caused by forward jetting. Three papers are presented.
The first numerically investigates shock reflections from a wedge under detonation-like conditions. A state of the art solver of the Euler equations is used. The shock reflection configuration is shown to depend on solver type, wedge implementation, and resolution. The type of reflection (i.e. regular or irregular) is found to depend on corner geometry, even far from the corner, showing initial conditions can play important roles in shock reflections.
These complications are addressed with shock-resolved viscous simulations and a new initial condition: the triple point reflection. The numerical method is demonstrated in the second paper, and the presence of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is investigated. Viscosity is found to play an important role in delaying the instability, which is found not to be a likely source of reaction acceleration on time scales commensurate with autoignition behind the Mach stem, but may become important on scales associated with the detonation cell.
Mach stem bifurcations are investigated experimentally and numerically in the third paper. Experimental shock reflections are performed from a free-slip boundary in gases with differing isentropic exponents. Bifurcations are found in experiments, viscous and inviscid simulations. Viscosity is found to delay bifurcations. Inviscid simulations are used to approximate the limits of Mach stem bifurcation in the phase space of Mach number, isentropic exponent, and reflection angle. A maximum isentropic exponent is found beyond which bifurcations do not occur, matching the irregular/regular boundary of the detonation cellular structure. Flow field instability is found in experiments at high Mach number and low isentropic exponent.
The second part of the thesis, comprised of one paper, investigates the dynamics of detonations with multiple thermicity peaks using Fickett's detonation analogue. Steady state analysis predicts multiple possible steady states, but only the fastest is singularity-free. Simulations show other solutions develop shock waves that eventually establish a detonation travelling at the fastest velocity allowed by the generalized Chapman-Jouguet criterion. Characteristic and linear stability analysis shows these shocks are found to arise due to instability at the sonic points.

▼ 3D spectroscopy was employed to probe and visualize energy flows through molecules from excited parent states. Studies with IR-Raman pump probe spectroscopy show clearly that the characteristics of the vibrational relaxation pathway depend strongly upon the initial excited states. By employing 3D spectroscopy, it is possible to track and visualize relaxation pathways for an entire range of parent states, providing a better understanding of intramolecular energy transfer.
Laser driven shocks and sum frequency generation spectroscopy were used to attempt to observe the mechanisms of initiation for HMX. Those first bond breaking events are poorly understood, and much could be learned from experimental observation. Much refinement of the sample design was done, but there was still no events observed by SFG that were clearly attributable to HMX initiation. No broadening or new peaks were observed at all, and no significant loss of SFG intensity occurred besides the expected loss from the destruction of the aluminum substrate. It is possible that a more uniform and better made sample, perhaps along with significantly more laser power, could successfully observe initiation.
Flyer driven shocks and emission spectroscopy were used to determine the relative
shock sensitivities of delta and beta HMX, as well as investigate the first nanoseconds after
shock compression for HMX. While previous studies by the Dlott group have observed interesting phenomena in those first nanoseconds to microseconds after
shock, those studies were done on beta HMX. Similar experiments were done on delta HMX, and it exhibits similar behavior initially with a very high temperature spike, though later behavior is not identical.

▼ Shock is one of the environmental tests that a spacecraft must pass before being cleared for launch.
Shock testing poses a challenging data acquisition issue and careful selection of equipment is crucial to creating a successful
shock test facility. Cal Poly’s CubeSat programs can currently perform all environmental testing other than
shock themselves, so a quality
shock table would be useful. Previous groups of students had developed a
shock table, and this paper details the improvement and characterization of that
shock table’s behavior. Several adjustable parameters were tested and documented to discover trends in the
shock table’s response to an impact from a pendulum hammer. Then a test meant to mimic an actual
shock test was performed. The CubeSat program provided a component to be tested and a requirement to be met. The nominal requirement is proprietary and cannot be given here, and additional stipulations included the test data being within a given tolerance band and at least 50% of the test data having a larger magnitude than the nominal requirement. The requirement needed to be met in all three of the component’s axes. The component was mounted to the
shock table and acceleration data was collected and analyzed. A successful test was conducted in one axis, which was the result of impacting the large face of the aluminum
shock table plate. The tests in the other two axes, conducted with impacts to the side of the aluminum plate, failed to meet the requirement. A finite element model of the table was developed and correlated to the test data. A new way of attaching the test component to the table was developed that would allow for testing in all three axes to be performed with impacts to the large face of the aluminum plate. A dynamic finite element analysis was performed, and the results indicate that this new attachment method should allow the requirement to be met in all three axes. The
shock table is currently fully operational and can be used for testing and teaching purposes. With the implementation of the new attachment method, it is believed that the CubeSat program’s requirements can be met as well.

▼ Manipulation of high-speed duct flow by streamwise vorticity concentration that are
engendered by interactions of surface-mounted passive and active flow control actuators with the cross flow is investigated experimentally in a small-scale wind tunnel. The controlled formation of these streamwise vortices can be a key element in the mitigation of the adverse flow effects in
a number of applications including aero-optical aberrations owing to unsteady local transonic shocks, pressure recovery and distortion due to secondary flows in embedded propulsion system, thrusts reversal and augmentation for aerodynamic control. The effects of the actuation are
investigated using various converging-diverging inserts along one of the test section walls. Passive actuation includes micro-vanes and active actuation is effected using high-frequency, surface-mounted fluidic oscillators. Hybrid actuation is demonstrated by combining the passive
and active actuation approaches to yield a “fail-safe” device with significant degree of
controllability. The investigations consider the effects of the surface actuation in three
application areas namely, stabilization of transonic shocks, suppression of total-pressure distortion in offset ducts, and mitigation of separation in internal flow turning.

▼ Shock-
shock interactions are among the most basic gas-dynamic problem, and are almost unavoidable in any high speed light, where
shock waves generating from different sources crosses each other paths. These interactions when present very close to the solid surface lead to very high pressure and thermal loads on the surface. The related practical problem is that experienced at the cowl lip of a scramjet engine, where the interfering
shock waves leads to high heat transfer rates which may also lead to the damage of the material. The classification by Edney (1968) on the
shock-shock interaction patterns based on the visualization has since then served the basis for such studies. Though the problem of high heating on the surface in the vicinity of the
shock-shock interactions has been studied at length at supersonic Mach numbers, the study on the topic at the hypersonic Mach numbers is little sparse. Even in the studies at hypersonic Mach numbers, the high speeds are not simulated, which is the measure of the kinetic energy of the ow. Very few experimental studies have addressed this problem by simulating the energy content of the ow. Also, some of the numerical studies on the
shock-shock interactions suggest the presence of unsteadiness in the
shock-shock interaction patterns as observed by Edney (1968), though this observation is not made very clearly in the experimental studies undertaken so far.
In the present study, experiments are carried out in a conventional
shock tunnel at Mach number of 5.62 (total enthalpy of 1.07 MJ/kg; freestream velocity of 1361 m/s), with the objective of mapping the surface pressure distribution and surface convective heat transfer rate distribution on the hemispherical body in the presence of the
shock-shock interactions. A
shock generator which is basically a wedge of angle = 25 , is placed at some dis-dance in front of the hemispherical body such that the planar oblique
shock wave from the
shock generator hits the bow
shock wave in front of the hemi-spherical body. The relative distance between the wedge tip and the nose of the hemispherical body is allowed to change in di erent experiments to capture the whole realm of
shock-shock interaction by making the planar oblique
shock wave interact with the bow
shock wave at different locations along its trajectory.
The study results in a bulk of data for the surface pressure and heat transfer rates which were obtained by placing 5 kulites pressure transducers, 1 PCB pressure transducer and 21 platinum thin lm gauges along the surface of the hemispherical body in a plane normal to the freestream velocity direction. Along with the measurement of the surface pressure and the surface heat
transfer rates, the schlieren visualization is carried out to capture the
shock waves, expansion fans, slip lines, present in a certain
shock-shock interaction pattern and the measured values were correlated with the captured schlieren images to evaluate the ow build up and steady and useful test time thereby helping in understanding the ow physics in the…

Experimental Investigations of Leading Edge Bluntness in Shock Boundary Layer Interactions at Hypersonic Speeds.

▼ Shock Boundary Layer Interactions (SBLIs) and
shock-shock interactions are some of the most fundamental problems in high speed aerodynamics. These interactions are of particular importance in scramjet intakes at hypersonic speeds. In hypersonic own with strong SBLI accompanied by own separation, large separation bubbles can form due to high impinging
shock strengths. While experiments involving large separation lengths for the impinging
shock boundary layer interactions near sharp leading edge are well documented in the literature, only few investigations on the effect of leading edge bluntness on the interactions are studied. In the present study, experiments were carried out to study the role of leading edge bluntness on the impinging
shock boundary layer interactions. An oblique
shock generated by a wedge (wedge angle 31 degrees) is made to impinge on a at plate (length 200 mm) over which a boundary layer develops. Different leading edge inserts were used on a at plate to get either a sharp or a blunt (radii from 2 to 8 mm) leading edge. The position of the at plate was moved horizontally with respect to the wedge to vary the
shock impingement location relative to the leading edge. Experiments were carried out at two freestream conditions - Mach 5.88 (total enthalpy of 1.26 MJ/kg and freestream Reynolds number of 3.85 million per meter) and Mach 8.54 (total enthalpy of 1.85 MJ/kg and freestream Reynolds number of 1.41 million per meter). The various features of the interaction along with different parameters were obtained from schlieren visualizations and surface pressure measurements. The schlieren visualization was used to obtain the separation length, while the reattachment pressure was obtained from the surface pressure distribution. From the present experimental study, a reduction in separation length was observed with an increase in leading edge bluntness. It was also seen that the sharp leading edge had the maximum separation length. Correlations for the separation length and the reattachment pressure have been proposed for these experimental conditions. Numerical simulations were also carried out using commercial software and they had a qualitative agreement with the experiments.

▼ Hypersonic inlet unstart remains a major technical obstacle in the successful implementation of hypersonic air-breathing propulsion systems such as ramjets and scramjets. Unstart occurs when combustor-induced pressure fluctuations lead to rapid expulsion of the
shock system from the isolator, and is associated with loss of thrust. The research presented here attempts to mitigate this behavior through the design and implementation of a closed-loop control scheme that regulates
shock location within a Mach 1.8 wind tunnel isolator test section. To localize the position of the
shock within the isolator, a set of high frequency Kulite pressure transducers are used to measure the static pressure at various points along the wind tunnel test section. A novel Kalman filter based approach is utilized, which fuses the estimates from two distinct
shock localization algorithms running at 250 Hz to determine the location of the
shock in real time. The primary
shock localization algorithm is a geometrical
shock detection scheme that can estimate the position of the
shock system even when it is located between pressure transducers. The second algorithm utilizes a sum-of-pressures technique that can be calibrated by the geometrical algorithm in real time. The closed-loop controller generates commands every 100 ms to actuate a motorized flap downstream of the test section in an effort to regulate the
shock to the desired location. The closed-loop control implementation utilized a simple logic-based controller as well as a Proportional-Integral (PI) and a Proportional-Derivative (PD) Controller. In addition to the implementation of control algorithms, the importance of various design criteria necessary to achieve satisfactory control performance is explored including parameters such as pressure transducer spacing,
shock localization speed, flap-motor actuation speed and actuator resolution. Experimental results are presented for various test scenarios such as regulation of the
shock location in the presence of stagnation pressure disturbances as well as tracking of time-varying step inputs. Performance and robustness properties of the tested control implementations are discussed. Further areas of improvement for the closed-loop control system in both hardware and software are discussed, and the need for reduced-order dynamics-based controllers is presented.

▼ This thesis seeks to explore how visual cues in the new environment affect Chinese international students studying abroad in the United States. Through open-ended interviews, Photovoice, and focus groups, Chinese international students shared their perspectives on their orientation, residence, campus places, color association, and on-campus place preferences. During the study, Chinese international students learned more about their visual perception and increased their awareness of how visual cues in the new environment may influence their emotions while studying abroad.
The study results revealed themes relating to students’ perceptions of their new visual environment that can affect their adjustment. This study suggests additional types of university support that could be useful to Chinese international students and their adjustment to the new environment, thus reducing culture
shock of various degrees.

▼ The Polycomb group (PcGs) proteins are implicated
in epigenetic transcriptional repression during development, stem
cell maintenance and tumorigenesis. The molecular mechanism by
which PcGs silence target loci is not fully understood. Here we
show that Drosophila taranis (tara) is required for positioning Pc
to its target genes. Embryos lacking tara exhibit partial homeotic
transformation in the cuticular segments, a phenotype associated
with Pc mutants. Consistent with the homeotic transformation, tara
loss of function results in misexpression of homeotic gene
Ultrabithorax (Ubx) and in reduced Pc recruitment on polytene
chromosomes. Moreover, Drosophila embryos lacking taranis
misexpress engrailed and lose Pc binding to its Polycomb response
element (PRE). These observations suggest that Tara might be
involved in transcriptional regulation of Pc target genes.
Mass
spectrometry revealed that Tara physically interacts with Heat
shock cognate70-4 (hsc4), an enhancer of Pc. We further found that
taranis genetically interact with hsc4. This interaction affects
the expression pattern of homeotic genes, Ubx and Abdominal-B
(Abd-B) in the developing embryo. tara and hsc4 double mutant
embryos show pronounced homeotic transformation similar to Pc loss
of function. Our study shows taranis as an important regulator of
PRE activity in the transcriptional silencing mechanism carried out
by PcGs.
Maintenance of tissue homeostasis requires a functional
stem cell environment (a.k.a niche). The Drosophila testis provides
for an excellent model for studying the stem cell niche, which
contains germ line stem cells along with the somatic cyst cells and
the hub cells. Here we show that taranis is required for
maintaining testis niche. tara is expressed in the Drosophila
testis tip. Knocking down taranis in the niche results in a loss of
germline stem cells. We show that the reduction in stem cells might
involve Notch signaling in the niche. Interestingly we found that
tara is only required in somatic cells for their proliferation.
Thus, the results suggest that taranis functions in somatic cells
in the niche to regulate germ line proliferation and
maintenance.

▼ The hydrodynamics of inertial confinement fusion
(ICF) implosions, both conventional hot spot and shock ignition
(SI), are discussed. A one-dimensional planar
compressible–piston-like model is used to investigate the basic
physics behind conventional hot spot and shock-ignition implosions.
Three ignitor shock techniques are found to mitigate the effects of
rarefaction waves, enhance the stagnation hot-spot pressure, and
improve the ignition conditions. These techniques are compared and
the optimal energy ratio between the initial shell kinetic energy
and the ignitor pulse energy is determined. We demonstrated for the
first time the ability to launch shocks of several-hundred Mbars in
spherical targets at SI relevant laser intensities, a milestone for
SI. The temporal delay between the launching of the strong shock at
the outer surface of the spherical target and the shock converges
at the center is used to infer the ablation
and shock pressures.
Peak ablation pressures exceeding 300 Mbar are inferred at absorbed
laser intensities of ~3 x 1015
W/cm2. The theory of ignition for ICF
capsules
is used to determine hydrodynamically-equivalent ignition
performance requirements on OMEGA. A reasonable combination of
neutron yield and areal density for OMEGA hydro-equivalent ignition
is ~6 x 1013 and 0.3
g/cm2, respectively.

▼ The behavior of carbon at terapascal pressures
(10’s of millions of atmospheres) is
important to modeling ice
giant planets and white dwarf stars and to designing inertial
confinement
fusion (ICF) experiments, where diamond is used to
contain and compress the
hydrogen fuel. The high-pressure shock
and release responses of diamond are of particular
interest to the
initial stages of an ICF implosion. Measurements of these behaviors
provide
rigorous constraints on important paths through carbon’s
equation of state. This work
presents experimental Hugoniot and
release data for both single-crystal diamond (SCD) and
nanocrystalline diamond (NCD), which is comprised of
nanometer-scale diamond grains
and is 5% less dense than SCD. We
find that the NCD used in ICF experiments has a
stiffer Hugoniot
than SCD that can be attributed to porosity. A Gr¨uneisen parameter
of 1
for high-pressure fluid carbon was derived from the NCD and
SCD Hugoniots and is used
in Mie-Gr¨uneisen models to accurately
describe the NCD and SCD release data.

▼ Introduction: Picornaviruses are a family of RNA viruses which are economically and clinically significant. Like many other viruses, picornaviruses utilise host cell machinery to facilitate their replication and assembly, including heat shock proteins (Hsps). The aim of this research was to investigate the role of Hsp40, Hsp70 and Hsp90 during picornavirus infection using the cardiovirus, Theiler’s murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV), as a study model. Methodology: Picornavirus VP1 capsid proteins were analysed by multiple sequence alignment and multiple structural comparisons. Protein domain architecture was used to analyse Hsp90 cellular and viral client proteins. Effects of Hsp90 inhibitors, novobiocin and geldanamycin, on TMEV growth in BHK-21 cells was observed over a 48hr period. Localisation of Hsp40, Hsp90 and Hsp70 in TMEV-infected BHK-21 cells was investigated by indirect immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy. Results and Discussion: VP1 proteins of picornaviruses are highly divergent within the family at the amino acid level, which might be linked to the protein’s function in determining virus tropism and antibody neutralisation. An eight-stranded anti-parallel beta-barrel structure was found conserved in the VP1 protein structures which might be linked to the highly conserved picornavirus capsid assembly process. Absence of a common protein domain between Hsp90 viral and cellular client proteins that might be functionally connected to Hsp90, suggests that Hsp90 most likely recognises surface features rather than sequence motifs/patterns. The Hsp90 inhibitors, novobiocin and geldanamycin, had a negative effect on virus growth as virus-induced cytopathic effect was not observed in treated cell after 48hrs. TMEV 2C protein was detected by Western analysis in infected cell lysates treated with geldanamycin but not novobiocin, suggesting novobiocin affects the translation or processing of TMEV 2C. Immunofluorescence analysis of TMEV-infected cells showed a relocalisation of Hsp40 into the nucleus during infection. Overlap of Hsp40 and TMEV P1 was observed in the perinuclear region, suggesting colocalisation between these proteins. Hsp70 converged around the replication complex during infection but did not overlap with TMEV 2C. Hsp90 concentrated in the region of the replication complex where it overlapped with TMEV 2C and this redistribution was found to be dependent on the stage of infection. The overlap between Hsp90 and TMEV 2C signals observed, suggested colocalisation between the two proteins. Conclusion: This study identified Hsp90, Hsp70 and Hsp40 as possible host factors required in TMEV replication.

▼ A positivity-preserving discontinuous Galerkin (DG) scheme (Zhang, X. & Shu, C.W., J. Comp. Phys., 229(23), 8918-8934.) is used to solve the Extended Magnetohydrodynamics (XMHD) model, which is a two-fluid model expressed with a center-of-mass formulation. We prove that the DG scheme with a positivitypreserving limiter is stable for the system governed by the XMHD model or the resistive MHD model. We use the relaxation system formulation (Seyler, C. E., & Martin, M. R. Physics of Plasmas, 18, 012703.) for describing the XMHD model, and solve the equations using a split level implicit-explicit time advance scheme, stepping over the time step constraint imposed by the stiff source terms. The magnetic field is represented in an exact locally divergence-free form of DG (Li, F., & Shu, C. W. 22(1-3), 413-442.), which greatly improves the accuracy and stability of MHD simulations. As presently constructed, the method is able to handle a wide range of density variation, solve the XMHD model on MHD time scales, and provide greatly improved accuracy over a Finite Volume implementation of the same model. The extended-MHD code DG-PERSEUS, which is an implementation of this method on a 3D Cartesian coordinates, has been applied to the study of the magnetized
shock in the context where a magnetized flow is interacting with a solid obstacle. Several physics issues are found to be associated with this problem, such as bow
shock, reconnection, plasmoids, which have been studied. The inflow parameters, such as the magnetosonic mach number M f and the ratio of thermal pressure to magnetic pressure [beta] can significantly affect the physical structures of the flow-obstacle interaction, which can be used as a diagnostic tool for the flow. The Hall effect can also significantly influence the results. Interplanetary physics - the solar wind interacting with Mars - is also studied. Simulations are carried out to show that the interplanetary features (bow
shock, reconnection) can also be achieved with laboratory parameters.

▼ Combustion is responsible for providing energy for many applications, especially in propulsion and rocket propellants.
Shock tubes provide a controlled, repeatable means of studying combustion characteristics; although, most of these studies require the fuel in a mixture to exist in pure gas-phase. This makes it challenging to test low-vapor-pressure fuels that tend to remain in condensed form. Low-vapor-pressure fuels are commonly used in many combustion applications, making combustion studies of these fuels important.
A method to study low-vapor-pressure fuels using a
shock tube approach is to inject the fuel into the
shock tube as tiny, uniformly-sized aerosol droplets. The sub-micron-sized aerosol droplets remain uniformly suspended in the
shock tube prior to running the experiment. An incident
shock wave vaporizes the liquid fuel droplets, then the reflected
shock wave initiates ignition of the mixture. This study presents the characterization of an aerosol fuel injection method to the
shock tube to study the combustion of low-vapor-pressure fuels. An aerosol generator was used to produce repeatable, uniformly-sized fuel droplets, and flow controllers were used to control and measure oxygen and argon dilution gas injected into the
shock tube. A technique was developed to ensure consistent and repeatable aerosol fuel production rates over which calibration curves were found. This study presents the ignition delay times for C7H16 (ϕ = 1.0) at a pressure of 2.0 atm for temperatures from 1220 - 1427 K, C7H8 (ϕ = 1.0) at 1.9 atm over a temperature range of 1406 – 1791 K, and C12H26 (ϕ = 0.3) at 3.0 atm for the temperature range of 1293 – 1455 K. The ignition delay times for heptane and toluene were compared to the literature values at the same conditions and were found to be in good agreement. Laser extinction (visible laser at 632nm) was used to verify the presence of aerosol fuel droplets inside the
shock tube for dodecane, but showed the heptane aerosol vaporized upon injection into the
shock tube. Initial laser absorption (3.39 µm) measurements were also taken. This aerosol technique was found to successfully evaluate combustion effects of low-vapor-pressure fuels; however, was limited by the range of possible fuel concentrations. Further work needs to be performed on the verification of aerosol spatial uniformity and obtaining higher fuel concentrations.

▼ Subjecting cells to elevated temperature induces heat
shock responses including the inhibition of general protein synthesis and induction of specific heat
shock proteins functioning mostly in cytoplasm. It was found out that severe heat stress (45 degrees) elicited phosphorylation of eIF2alpha which was enough to shut down translation while little or no eIF2alpha phosphorylation was detected under mild heat stress (41-42 degrees), indicating that the adaptive response in the latter involved more complicated mechanisms. Preliminary results of AD293 cells at 40 degrees showed Bip induction and instant eIF2alpha phosphorylation for the first time, which led us to further investigate possible connections between heat
shock and ER stress. The two stress systems share many similarities including the regulation process and two specific groups of chaperones may play important roles in development physiologically besides their functions in stress response. Our study of heat
shock on other cell lines showed consistent induction of GADD34 mRNA which was dependent on eIF2alpha phosphorylation as well as the activation of IRE1 pathway which may be separately induced. In summary, we hypothesized that two patterns of response exist in mild heat stress and instant eIF2alpha phosphorylation may be a possible explanation why it was not detected in earlier researches. Our work is helpful revealing the physiological mechanisms of the adaptive response because the temperature we used in the study is 40 degrees, a temperature even lower than what was applied experimentally to induce mild heat stress but fits the normal febrile-range hypothermia (37.5-40.0C).

▼ Dust explosion hazards in areas where combustible dusts are found have caused loss of life and halted business operations in some instances. The elimination of secondary dust explosion hazards, i.e. reducing dust dispersion, can be characterized in
shock-tubes to understand
shock-dust interactions. For this reason, a new
shock-tube test section was developed and integrated into an existing
shock-tube facility. The test section has large windows to allow for the use of the shadowgraph technique to track dust-layer growth behind a passing normal
shock wave, and it is designed to handle an incident
shock wave up to Mach 2 to impersonate real-industry scenarios. The characterization experiments presented herein demonstrate the advantages of the authors’ test techniques toward providing new physical insights over a wider range of data than what have been available heretofore in the literature.
First, the effect of
shock strength on the dust entrainment process was explored by subjecting limestone dust to Mach numbers ranging from 1.10 to 1.60. Also, the effect of dust-layer thickness on the entrainment process was observed by performing tests with two different layer depths, namely 3.2- and 12.7-mm thicknesses. New data were collected to develop correlations between the
shock strength and the dust entrainment height as a function of time for each layer depth. The longer observation time and higher camera framing rates led to the discovery of trends not previously observed by earlier studies, such as a clear transition time between the early, linear growth regime and a much-slower, average growth regime. This second regime is however accompanied by surface instabilities that can lead to a much larger variation in the edge of the dust layer than seen in the early growth regime. In addition, for the linear growth regime, there was no significant difference in the dust-layer height growth between the two layer thicknesses; however, the larger thickness led to higher growth rates and much larger surface instabilities at later times. Next, we conducted experiments to elucidate the effect of particle size and size polydispersity on dust cloud formation phenomena behind blast waves. Through systematic modification of the span of the particle size distribution, the striking effect of polydispersity on the entrainment process was demonstrated. Moreover, correlations between linear dust rise rate and particle size and size polydispersity have been developed. Finally, recommendations for numerical modelers of this field and NFPA 654, Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions from the Manufacturing, Processing, and Handling of Combustible Particulate Solids are provided for developing a better dust explosion hazard assessment tool.

▼ Due to economic and environmental concerns associated with use of fossil fuels, humanity is seeking alternative fuels. Ethanol is one of the alternative fuels produced commercially. Current ethanol production technologies using first generation ethanol processes is criticised for depleting the food supply and escalating food prices. Biomass is a target feedstock for use in bioethanol production and would resolve the criticism associated with the current bioethanol industry. Bacterial strains such as Geobacillus thermoglucosidasius NCIMB 11955 can be used to produce ethanol from biomass because they assimilate hexose and pentose sugars, a property that is lacking in first generation ethanol producing microbes (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zymomonas mobilis) (Riyanti and Rogers, 2009). Due to the low ethanol tolerance (4 % v/v (maximum)) of G. thermoglucosidasius, use of this species for bioethanol production is not economically viable. GroES and GroEL genes are involved in stress tolerance in bacteria: activation of these genes has been observed in stress induced bacteria (Rasouly and Ron, 2009). In this study the ethanol tolerance of G. thermoglucosidasius NCIMB 11955 was characterised by culturing at 45 ºC and 55 ºC in the presence of ethanol. A greater ethanol tolerance was observed at the sub-optimal growth temperature of 45 ºC. Escherichia coli metabolic systems are well understood. Aiming to improve the ethanol tolerance G. thermoglucosidasius NCIMB 11955, the GroES and GroEL genes of the organism were cloned in an expression vector and expressed in E.coli before testing their ability to confer an increased tolerance to ethanol. Proteomic analysis of the recombinant E. coli strain showed that GroES was over-expressed while GroEL was not. After over expression of GroES, the optical density of cultures was periodically measured. Over-expression of the G. thermoglucosidasius NCIMB 11955 GroES gene improved the ethanol tolerance of E. coli Rosetta pLySs growing in 4% (v/v) ethanol.

▼ OBJECTIVE: To assess the cost-effectiveness of a non-pneumatic anti-
shock garment (NASG) for obstetric hemorrhage in tertiary hospitals in Egypt and Nigeria.
METHODS: We combined published data from pre-intervention/NASG-intervention clinical trials with costs from study sites. For each country, we used observed proportions of initial
shock level (mild: mean arterial pressure [MAP] > 60mmHg; severe: MAP ≤ 60mmHg) to define a standard population of 1,000 women presenting in
shock. We examined three intervention scenarios: no women in
shock receive the NASG, only women in severe
shock receive the NASG, and all women in
shock receive the NASG. Clinical data included frequencies of adverse health outcomes (mortality, severe morbidity, severe anemia), and interventions to manage bleeding (uterotonics, blood transfusions, hysterectomies). Costs (in 2010 international dollars) included the NASG, training, and clinical interventions. We compared costs and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) across the intervention scenarios.
RESULTS: For 1000 women presenting in
shock, providing the NASG to those in severe
shock results in decreased mortality and morbidity, which averts 357 DALYs in Egypt and 2,063 DALYs in Nigeria. Differences in use of interventions result in net savings of 9,489 in Egypt (primarily due to reduced transfusions) and net costs of 6,460 in Nigeria, with a cost per DALY averted of 3.13. Results of providing the NASG for women in mild
shock has smaller and uncertain effects due to few clinical events in this data set.
CONCLUSION: Using the NASG for women in severe
shock resulted in markedly improved health outcomes (2-2.9 DALYs averted per woman, primarily due to reduced mortality), with net savings or extremely low cost per DALY averted. This suggests that in resource-limited settings, the NASG is a very cost-effective intervention for women in severe hypovolemic
shock. The effects of the NASG for mild
shock are less certain.
