Abstract:
The objective of the study was to investigate, using academic-community epidemiologic co-analysis, the odds of reported heat-related illness for people with (1) central air conditioning (AC) or window unit AC versus no AC, and (2) fair/poor vs. good/excellent reported health. From 2016 to 2017, 101 Detroit residents were surveyed once regarding extreme heat, housing and neighborhood features, and heat-related illness in the prior 5 years. Academic partners selected initial confounders and, after instruction on directed acyclic graphs, community partners proposed alternate directed acyclic graphs with additional confounders. Heat-related illness was regressed on AC type or health and co-selected confounders. The study found that heat-related illness was associated with no-AC (n = 96, odds ratio (OR) = 4.66, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.22, 17.72); living ≤5 years in present home (n = 57, OR = 10.39, 95% CI = 1.13, 95.88); and fair/poor vs. good/excellent health (n = 97, OR = 3.15, 95% CI = 1.33, 7.48). Co-analysis suggested multiple built-environment confounders. We conclude that Detroit residents with poorer health and no AC are at greater risk during extreme heat. Academic-community co-analysis using directed acyclic graphs enhances research on community-specific social and health vulnerabilities by identifying key confounders and future research directions for rigorous and impactful research.

Abstract:
The object of study in the article is the vortex effect of temperature separation in a rotating gas flow, which is realized in small-sized vortex energy separators. The subject matter is the models that describe the physical processes of energy conversion in small-sized vortex energy separators as objects of automatic control. The goal is to obtain models of a vortex energy separator reflecting its static and dynamic properties as an automatic control object. The tasks to be solved are: to develop a three-dimensional computer model of a small-sized vortex energy separator which will allow analyzing the parameters of the gas flow and physical processes of energy conversion directly inside the object and obtaining its static characteristics. A linearization method of static characteristics on the interval of input and output values is proposed which will expand the operating range without loss of linearization accuracy. A method of structural-parametric identification based on experimental logarithmic magnitude-frequency characteristics is proposed which will allow for the same set of experimental points to select the structure of the mathematical model of varying complexity depending on the specified accuracy. As a result of the work, the scheme for modeling the automatic control object was formed, consisting of the drive unit, sensor unit, and vortex energy separator, with the reflection of all the obtained operating modes. The methods used are the method of graphic linearization, Laplace transform, structural-parametric identification. The following results were obtained: a computer and linearized mathematical model of the small-sized vortex energy separator as an automatic control object reflecting its properties in the time and frequency domains was obtained. A comparative analysis of the reactions of the model and the real object to the same input action was carried out. Conclusions. The scientific novelty of the results obtained is as follows: 1) multiple graphic linearizations of one static characteristic to use the full range of the operation mode of vortex energy separator, which distinguishes it from the known;2) mathematical model structural-parametric identification for vortex energy separator with the help of known points of the Bode magnitude plots by using the interpolation polynomial and its derivatives graphs.

Abstract:
Les graphes d’intervalles multiples sont une généralisation bien connue des graphes d’intervalles, où chaque sommet d’un graphe est représenté par un d-intervalle (l’union de d intervalles) pour un certain nombre naturel d > 1, et il existe une arête entre deux sommets si et seulement si leurs d-intervalles correspondants se croisent. En particulier, un graphe de d-intervalles est unitaire si tous les intervalles de la représentation ont une longueur unitaire. Dans cette thèse, nous étudions les graphes de d-intervalles unitaires d’un point de vue structurel et algorithmique. Dans la première partie, nous essayons de généraliser la caractérisation de Roberts des graphes d’intervalles unitaires, qui affirme qu’un graphe est un graphe d’intervalles unitaire si et seulement s’il est un graphe d’intervalles et ne contient pas le graphe biparti complet K1,3 comme sous-graphe induit. Ensuite, nous passons à l’étude de la complexité de la reconnaissance des graphes d’intervalles multiples unitaires. Nous prouvons que, étant donné un graphe G, il est NP-difficile de déterminer si G est un graphe de d-intervalles unitaires, et nous étendons ensuite ce résultat de difficulté à d’autres sous-classes de graphes de d-intervalles unitaires. Dans la dernière partie de ce manuscrit, nous nous concentrons sur le problème de PIG-completion, qui étant donné un graphe d’intervalles G, demande de trouver le nombre minimum d’arêtes à ajouter à G pour qu’il devienne un graphe d’intervalles unitaire. Nous obtenons un algorithme polynomial lorsque G contient un sommet adjacent à tous les autres sommets du graphe, et un algorithme XP paramétré par une propriété structurelle du graphe
Multiple interval graphs are a well-known generalization of interval graphs, where each vertex of a graph is represented by a d-interval (the union of d intervals) for some natural number d > 1, and there exists an edge between two vertices if and only if their corresponding d-intervals intersect. In particular, a d-interval graph is unit if all the intervals on the representation have unit length. In this thesis, we study unit d-interval graphs from a structural and an algorithmic perspective. In the first part, we tryto generalize Roberts characterization of unit interval graphs, which states that a graph is unit interval if and only if it is interval and it does not contain the complete bipartite graph K1,3 as an induced subgraph. Then, we move on to studythe complexity of recognizing unit multiple interval graphs. We prove that given a graph G it is NP-hard to determine whether G is a unit d-interval graph, and then extend this hardness result to other subclasses of unit d-interval graphs. Inthe last part of this manuscript, we focus on the PIG-completion problem, where given an interval graph G, we are asked to find the minimum number of edges that we need to add to G so that it becomes a proper interval graph. We obtain apolynomial algorithm when G contains a vertex that is adjacent to every other vertex of the graph, and an XP algorithm parameterized by a structural property of the graph

Abstract:
Today, the main research field for the automotive industry is to find solutions for active safety. In order to perceive the surrounding environment, tracking nearby traffic objects plays an important role. Validation of the tracking performance is often done in staged traffic scenarios, where additional sensors, mounted on the vehicles, are used to obtain their true positions and velocities. The difficulty of evaluating the tracking performance complicates its development. An alternative approach studied in this thesis, is to record sequences and use non-causal algorithms, such as smoothing, instead of filtering to estimate the true target states. With this method, validation data for online, causal, target tracking algorithms can be obtained for all traffic scenarios without the need of extra sensors. We investigate how non-causal algorithms affects the target tracking performance using multiple sensors and dynamic models of different complexity. This is done to evaluate real-time methods against estimates obtained from non-causal filtering. Two different measurement units, a monocular camera and a LIDAR sensor, and two dynamic models are evaluated and compared using both causal and non-causal methods. The system is tested in two single object scenarios where ground truth is available and in three multi object scenarios without ground truth. Results from the two single object scenarios shows that tracking using only a monocular camera performs poorly since it is unable to measure the distance to objects. Here, a complementary LIDAR sensor improves the tracking performance significantly. The dynamic models are shown to have a small impact on the tracking performance, while the non-causal application gives a distinct improvement when tracking objects at large distances. Since the sequence can be reversed, the non-causal estimates are propagated from more certain states when the target is closer to the ego vehicle. For multiple object tracking, we find that correct associations between measurements and tracks are crucial for improving the tracking performance with non-causal algorithms.

Abstract:
Combinatorial objects can be represented by strings, such as 21534 for the permutation (1 2) (3 5 4), or 110100 for the binary tree corresponding to the balanced parentheses (()()). Given a string s = s1 s2 sn, the right-shift operation shift(s, i, j) replaces the substring si si+1..sj by si+1..sj si. In other words, si is right-shifted into position j by applying the permutation (j j−1 .. i) to the indices of s. Right-shifts include prefix-shifts (i = 1) and adjacent-transpositions (j = i+1). A fixed-content language is a set of strings that contain the same multiset of symbols. Given a fixed-content language, a shift Gray code is a list of its strings where consecutive strings differ by a shift. This thesis asks if shift Gray codes exist for a variety of combinatorial objects. This abstract question leads to a number of practical answers. The first prefix-shift Gray code for multiset permutations is discovered, and it provides the first algorithm for generating multiset permutations in O(1)-time while using O(1) additional variables. Applications of these results include more efficient exhaustive solutions to stacker-crane problems, which are natural NP-complete traveling salesman variants. This thesis also produces the fastest algorithm for generating balanced parentheses in an array, and the first minimal-change order for fixed-content necklaces and Lyndon words. These results are consequences of the following theorem: Every bubble language has a right-shift Gray code. Bubble languages are fixed-content languages that are closed under certain adjacent-transpositions. These languages generalize classic combinatorial objects: k-ary trees, ordered trees with fixed branching sequences, unit interval graphs, restricted Schr oder and Motzkin paths, linear-extensions of B-posets, and their unions, intersections, and quotients. Each Gray code is circular and is obtained from a new variation of lexicographic order known as cool-lex order. Gray codes using only shift(s, 1, n) and shift(s, 1, n−1) are also found for multiset permutations. A universal cycle that omits the last (redundant) symbol from each permutation is obtained by recording the first symbol of each permutation in this Gray code. As a special case, these shorthand universal cycles provide a new fixed-density analogue to de Bruijn cycles, and the first universal cycle for the "middle levels" (binary strings of length 2k + 1 with sum k or k + 1).

Abstract:
It is known that plugging behaviour plays a significant role in affecting the bearing capacity of open-ended piles driven in sands. However, numerical analyses of pile plugging presents multiple challenges. To better understand plugging development during open-ended pile installation, three-dimensional discrete element method (DEM) simulations have been undertaken of small model piles' penetration in virtual calibration chamber tests. The analyses employed the open-source MUSEN framework and took advantages of graphics processing unit (GPU) acceleration, particle refinement and axisymmetric modelling. The simulation was able to reproduce pile plugging behaviour in sands ranging from fully coring to fully plugged states. The contributions to pile capacity of internal and external shaft friction are correlated with plug indices including incremental filling ratio (IFR) and plug length ratio (PLR). The new, purely theoretical, analyses show shaft resistances that agree well with estimates made from well-known CPT-based offshore design methods. The poorer agreement found for base resistances also identified ways in which the new DEM analyses may be improved.

Abstract:
This paper investigates energy savings and economic aspects related to the use of microturbine generators in commercial buildings either for cogeneration (electricity+heat) or for trigeneration (electricity, heat and cold). In all calculations, reference is made to a 25 kWel–class commercial micro-turbine generator (MTG), tested by the authors. Various plant schemes are considered, based on one or several MTG sets. The possibility of generating heat and/or cold also by an electrically driven inverse-cycle air-to-water heat pump/chiller system is also considered. Calculations are based on the simulation code TRIGEN developed by the authors. The code provides detailed energy, economic and emission yearly balances. The plant operating mode is optimized in each time interval. The results indicate that, due to large load variations, (i) the optimum turbine nominal output is in the range of about 70% of the electric peak demand, (ii) energy savings are marginal, (iii) advantages related to splitting the overall capacity on more than one unit are marginal and (iv) the addition of an absorption machine improves the plant economics.

The family of graphs H,p has been defined in the context of edge partitions. The established properties such as vertex transitivity and low diameter suggest this family as a good topology for the design of interconnection networks. The vertices of the graphH p are the tuples with values between 0 and p1, such that the sum of the values is a multiple of p, and there is an edge between two vertices, if the two corresponding tuples have two pairs of entries whose values differ by one unit. In order to work towards the diameter, the difference between an upper and a lower bounds is established to be at most and we present subfamilies of graphs H p such that, for several values of and p, the bounds are tight.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Several challenges are associated with enhancing oil and gas recovery from tight and shale reservoirs, which make up a significant portion of hydrocarbon production worldwide. Despite past efforts to characterize the properties of these reservoirs using different techniques, several geological, geochemical, and geological properties of such formations remain challenging to determine accurately. To investigate these challenges, the Bakken Petroleum System (BPS) is taken as a case study, consisting of two source rock units and two tight reservoir units. A petrographic analysis using core slabs was done and a petrophysical model was built using conventional and advanced logs to estimate properties such as porosity, permeability, water saturation, mineralogy, movable and irreducible fluids, and pore size distribution. Challenges arise from the complexity of the formation, limitations of logging tools, and inaccuracies in estimation methods. Thin laminas and borrowed intervals are difficult to detect from well logs, leading to an incorrect reading of different well logs. Additionally, cementing material and variable volumes of minerals along the reservoir interval make the estimation of cementing exponent constant inaccurate. The salinity of water, dispersed clays, and clays coatings on grains lead to low resistivity readings. Also, permeability is independent of porosity and controlled by uniform pore throat and body size distribution. The study presents lessons learned from characterizing the complex BPS and challenges that can be used to accurately characterize other tight and shale reservoirs worldwide. INTRODUCTION Unconventional reservoirs are increasingly explored and exploited as conventional reserves decline. Shale and tight reservoirs account for 42% of total U.S. hydrocarbon reserves (EIA). Despite these huge reserves, less than 10% of the original oil in place (OOIP) can be technically and economically produced from these reservoirs using multistage hydraulic fracturing due to the low porosity and permeability, complex pore structure, and high variation in the mineralogy of these reservoirs(Abdeldjalil et al., 2023; Helms et al., 2023; Merzoug et al., 2022; J. Sorensen et al., 2014). Several enhanced oil recovery methods have been tested to investigate the factors affecting oil recovery from pore to field scale. This requires detailed understanding of rock and fluid properties at different scales for accurate modeling of subsurface fluid flow for EOR and gas storage (J.A. Harju, et al. 2022). Multiple challenges prevent accurate evaluation of the reservoir's rock and fluid properties distribution. This is due to various pore size and type distribution, mineralogy variation, different cementing minerals, thin beds, bioturbations, and existence and distribution of organic matter (Onwumelu et al., 2021). Geologic, petrographic and petrophysical analysis are the main common methods used to characterize reservoirs at different scales, This involves the identification of the main geologic features (grain size distribution, bioturbations, laminations and lithofacies), petrophysical properties (porosity, permeability, fluids, kerogen, and minerals volumes, pore size distribution), and pore characteristics (pore type and size, pore throat size distribution, grain sorting, and cementing materials). The accuracy and applicability of these methods are highly dependent on the scale of evaluation and the complexity of the reservoir.

Abstract This paper studies the influence of hybrid disorders on acoustic transmission characteristic in pipeline with periodic elastic HRs. Band gap structures (BGs) for infinite period are investigated by transfer matrix method and finite element method respectively, and fit well with the corresponding transmission loss (TL) for finite regular periods. By introducing a certain degree of uncertainty level, Interval analysis method is used to convert uncertain parameter problems into two deterministic models. Frequency response function (FRF) for near-periodic structure with single disorder and BGs for quasi-periodic structure with multiple disorders considering cavity radius and periodic length are investigated. The existence of disorders in periodic structure would always reduce attenuation interval and intensity, some disturbance would even change the original acoustic transmission characteristic and excite completely new attenuation zones. The sensitivity of pipeline acoustic vibration transfer characteristic to disorder parameter depends on attenuation mechanism, as for periodic elastic HRs pipeline, acoustic propagation stability is more sensitive to characteristic of locally resonant unit. The work in this paper enriches the stability analysis of pipeline with elastic HRs, which would provide theoretical reference for noise and vibration reduction design in practical engineering applications.

Abstract:
Anisotropy of surface texture can in many practical cases significantly affect the interaction between the surface and phenomena that influence or are influenced by the topography. Tribological contacts in sheet forming, wetting behavior or dental wear are good examples. This article introduces and exemplifies a method for quantification and visualization of anisotropy using the newly developed 3D multi-scale curvature tensor analysis. Examples of a milled steel surface, which exhibited an evident anisotropy, and a ruby contact probe surface, which was the example of isotropic surface, were measured by the confocal microscope. They were presented in the paper to support the proposed approach. In the method, the curvature tensor T is calculated using three proximate unit vectors normal to the surface. The multi-scale effect is achieved by changing the size of the sampling interval for the estimation of the normals. Normals are estimated from regular meshes by applying a covariance matrix method. Estimation of curvature tensor allows determination of two directions around which surface bends the most and the least (principal directions) and the bending radii (principal curvatures). The direction of the normal plane, where the curvature took its maximum, could be plotted for each analyzed region and scale. In addition, 2D and 3D distribution graphs could be provided to visualize anisotropic or isotropic characteristics. This helps to determine the dominant texture direction or directions for each scale. In contrast to commonly used surface isotropy/anisotropy determination techniques such as Fourier transform or autocorrelation, the presented method provides the analysis in 3D and for every region at each scale. Thus, different aspects of the studied surfaces could clearly be seen at different scales.

Abstract:
This article presents the early results from a 10-person human subject study evaluating the accuracy of a novel method of indirect estimation of intraocular pressure using tactile sensors. Manual digital palpation tonometery is an old method used to estimate the eye pressure through palpation with ones fingers. Based on this concept, we present an instrumented measurement method, where multiple tactile stiffness sensors are used to infer the intraocular pressure of the eye. The method is validated using experimental data gathered from human subjects with eye pressures from 15 to 22 mmHg and determined by Goldman applanation tonometry (GAT). Bland-Altman plots comparing the GAT measurements and the proposed through-the-eye-lid tonometry indicate a statistical error of 5.16 mmHg, within the 95% confidence interval, which compares favorably with the FDA-mandated error bound of 5 mmHg. Details on the unit operation and data filtering are also presented. Due to its indirect and non-invasive nature, the proposed new tactile tonometry method can be applied at home as a self-administered home tonometer for management of glaucoma.

Abstract:
Typical Hesitant Fuzzy Logic (THFL) is founded on the theory of Hesitant Fuzzy Sets, which consider as membership degrees the finite and non-empty subsets of the unit interval, called Typical Hesitant Fuzzy Elements (THFE). THFL provides the modelling for situations where there exists not only data uncertainty, but also indecision or hesitation among experts about the possible values for preferences regarding collections of objects. In order to reduce the information collapse for comparison and/or ranking of alternatives in the preference relationships, this thesis develops new ideas on THFL connectives, investigated under the scope of three admissible orders. In particular, properties of negations and aggregations are studied, as t-norms and OWA operators, with special interest in the axiomatic structures defining the implications and preserving their algebraic properties and representability. As the main contribution, we present a model that formally builds consensus measures on THFE through extended aggregation functions and fuzzy negation, using admissible orders for comparison and further, differentiating an analysis of consistency over preference matrices. Main theoretical results are submitted to multiple expert and mutiple criteria decision making problems.
