- Description:
- The Multifaceted Optimization Algorithm (MOA) is a tool for generating corrected empirical model thermospheric densities during geomagnetic storms. It consists of a suite of Python functions that operate around the Spacecraft Orbit Characterization Kit (SpOCK), an orbital propagator developed by Charles D. Bussy-Virat, PhD, Joel Getchius, and Aaron J. Ridley, PhD at the University of Michigan, and it estimates new densities for the NRLMSISE-00 atmospheric model. MOA generates new model densities by estimating modifications to inputs to the NLRMSISE-00 model that minimize the orbit error between modeled spacecraft in SpOCK, and their actual altitudes as described in publicly-available Two-Line Element Sets (TLEs), made available online via Space-track.org. MOA consists of three sub-process: (1) The Area Optimization Algorithm (AROPT), (2) the F10.7 Optimization Algorithm (FOPT), and (3) the Ap Optimization Algorithm (APOPT). AROPT computes the contribution to the drag of the modeled spacecraft due to their varying projected area. FOPT estimates modifications to the 10.7 cm solar radio flux in NRLMSISE-00, and APOPT estimates modifications to the Earth's magnetic activity in NRLMSISE-00. MOA finds these modifications across many spacecraft, and the medians of those modifications are then applied in NLRMSISE-00 along the orbit of another satellite to generate new densities for verification. In this instance, modifications are applied along the orbits of the Swarm spacecraft and compared to Swarm GPS-derived densities.

- Description:
- The goal here is to study the voltage and expansion response of lithium-ion batteries at different charging rates. Specifically, the goal is to capture the observation of the smoothing of the peaks in dV/dQ and retention of the peaks in d^2 (backslash)delta/dQ^2 at higher C-rates. The retention of the peaks at higher charging rates enables better estimation of the cell capacity. To achieve this goal a reduced order electrochemical and mechanical model with multiple particles with a size distribution is developed. This allows us to capture the smoothing and preservation of the phase transitions in the voltage and expansion measurements at high C-rates, respectively. The model is written in Matlab software.

- Description:
- Precipitation impacts on ice cover and water temperature in the Laurentian Great Lakes were examined using state-of-art coupled ice-hydrodynamic models. Numerical experiments were conducted for the recent anomalously cold (2014-2015) and warm (2015-2016) winters that were accompanied by high and low ice coverage over the lakes, respectively. The results of numerical experiments showed that, snow cover on the ice, which is the manifestation of winter precipitation, reduced the total ice volume (or mean ice thickness) in all of the Great Lakes, shortened the ice duration, and allowed earlier warming of water surface. The reduced ice volume was due to the thermal insulation of snow cover. The surface albedo was also increased by snow cover, but its impact on the delay the melting of ice was overcome by the thermal insulation effect. During major snowstorms, snowfall over the open lake caused notable cooling of the water surface due to latent heat absorption. Overall, the sensible heat flux from rain in spring and summer was found to have negligible impacts on the water surface temperature. Although uncertainties remain in over-lake precipitation estimates and model’s representation of snow on the ice, this study demonstrated that winter precipitation, particularly snowfall on the ice and water surfaces, is an important contributing factor in Great Lakes ice production and thermal conditions from late fall to spring.

- Description:
- Micron-scale robots require systems that can morph into arbitrary target configurations controlled by external agents such as heat, light, electricity, and chemical environment. Achieving this behavior using conventional approaches is challenging because the available materials at these scales are not programmable like their macroscopic counterparts. To overcome this challenge, we propose a design strategy to make a robotic machine that is both programmable and compatible with colloidal-scale physics. Our strategy uses motors in the form of active colloidal particles that constantly propel forward. We sequence these motors end-to-end in a closed chain forming a two-dimensional loop that folds under its mechanical constraints. We encode the target loop shape and its motion by regulating six design parameters, each scale-invariant and achievable at the colloidal scale. The research dataset includes simulation, visualization, and analysis scripts and results generated for the 2D chain loops of self-propelling particles.

- Description:
- Our work seeks to better understand the financial risks to corporate operations as a basis for exploring alternative public-private investment strategies. We applied network analysis to model financial relationships within this sector and its connectedness to primary commodities transported on the Great Lakes. The financial network maps were used to quantitatively analyze the industry risk exposure using corporate financial metrics and to query the financial interdependencies of companies relative to the Great Lakes waterway. Results demonstrate that inventory turnover ratio is a robust proxy to quantify weighted financial risks of water dependency across the entire supply chain network. All data was manually collected from the Bloomberg Terminal and FactSet which are licensed by the University of Michigan. The SPLC module in the Terminal restricts data download and information must be captured manually. All data was collected from September-November 2018.

- File: P,jf06Sep2019,mese.7 The multi-echo spin echo (MESE) data was acquired using a 3D acquisition with an initial 90 degree excitation pulse followed by 32 refocusing (180 degree) pulses, resulting in 32 echoes with echo spacing of 10 ms. The repetition time of the sequence was 1200 ms. Each refocusing pulse was flanked by crusher gradients to impart 14 cycles of phase across the imaging volume. The initial excitation pulse had time-bandwidth product of 6, duration of 3 ms, and slab thickness of 0.9 cm, and each refocusing pulse had time-bandwidth product of 2, duration of 2 ms, and slab thickness of 2.1 cm. The scan took 36 min 11 s and covered a field of view (FOV) of 22 x 22 x 0.99 cm^3 with matrix size 200 x 200 x 9., File: P,jf06Sep2019,b1.7 The Bloch-Siegert (BS) scans were acquired using a 3D acquisition. The excitation pulse of these scans had time-bandwidth product of 8 and duration of 1 ms. The pair of scans used +/-4 kHz off-resonant Fermi pulses between excitation and readout. The BS scans took 2 min 40 s in total and covered a FOV of 22 x 22 x 0.99 cm^3 with matrix size 200 x 50 x 9., File: P,jf06Sep2019,mwf.7 The small-tip fast recovery (STFR) scans were acquired using a 3D acquisition. The first two and last two scans were pairs of spoiled gradient-recalled echo (SPGR) scans with echo time difference of 2.3 ms. (In the related paper, only the first set was used, i.e., only 11 of the 13 scans were used.) The remaining scans used scan parameters that were optimized to minimize the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) of estimates of myelin water fraction (MWF). The RF pulses had time-bandwidth product of 8 and duration of 1 ms. Each pair of SPGR scans took 58 s and the nine STFR scans took 3 min 36 s for a total scan time of 5 min 32 s (4 min 34 s if one pair of SPGR scans is ignored).

- A household survey was developed to capture household perceptions and behaviors around drinking water use. It consisted of several modules: key informant and household demographics, household assets and consumption, water use behaviors in the dry season, water use behaviors during the rest of the year, and water supply maintenance and repair. Intervention and safe water device surveys were also developed; the household and intervention surveys were administered via Qualtrics. and This record consists of several survey instruments, exported where appropriate from Qualtrics into PDF and .qsf.

- This is the README for the LunarSynchrotronArray package, maintained by Dr. Alex Hegedus alexhege@umich.edu This code repository corresponds to the Hegedus et al. 2020 (accepted) Radio Science paper, "Measuring the Earth's Synchrotron Emission from Radiation Belts with a Lunar Near Side Radio Array". The arxiv link for the paper is https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.04482. The DOI link is https://doi.org/10.1029/2019RS006891 , The Earth's Ionosphere is home to a large population of energetic electrons that live in the balance of many factors including input from the Solar wind, and the influence of the Earth's magnetic field. These energetic electrons emit radio waves as they traverse Earth's magnetosphere, leading to short‐lived, strong radio emissions from local regions, as well as persistent weaker emissions that act as a global signature of the population breakdown of all the energetic electrons. Characterizing this weaker emission (Synchrotron Emission) would lead to a greater understanding of the energetic electron populations on a day to day level. A radio array on the near side of the Moon would always be facing the Earth, and would well suited for measuring its low frequency radio emissions. In this work we simulate such a radio array on the lunar near side, to image this weaker synchrotron emission. The specific geometry and location of the test array were made using the most recent lunar maps made by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. This array would give us unprecedented day to day knowledge of the electron environment around our planet, providing reports of Earth's strong and weak radio emissions, giving both local and global information. , This set of codes should guide you through making the figures in the paper, as well as hopefully being accessible enough for changing the code for your own array.

- Description:
- Using the statistical programming package R ( https://cran.r-project.org/), and JAGS (Just Another Gibbs Sampler, http://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.net/), we processed multiple estimates of the Laurentian Great Lakes water balance components -- over-lake precipitation, evaporation, lateral tributary runoff, connecting channel flows, and diversions -- feeding them into prior distributions (using data from 1950 through 1979), and likelihood functions. The Bayesian Network is coded in the BUGS language. Water balance computations assume that monthly change in storage for a given lake is the difference between beginning of month water levels surrounding each month. For example, the change in storage for June 2015 is the difference between the beginning of month water level for July 2015 and that for June 2015., More details on the model can be found in the following summary report for the International Watersheds Initiative of the International Joint Commission, where the model was used to generate a new water balance historical record from 1950 through 2015: https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/pubs/fulltext/2018/20180021.pdf.

- Description:
- The NASA MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) spacecraft, which is currently in orbit around Mars, has been taking daily (systematic) measurements of the densities and temperatures in the upper atmosphere of Mars between about 140 to 240 km above the surface. Wind measurement campaigns are also conducted once per month for 5-10 orbits. These densities, temperatures and winds change with time (e.g. season, local time) and location, and sometimes fluctuate quickly. Global dust storm events are also known to significantly impact these density, temperature and wind fields in the Mars thermosphere. Such global dust storm period measurements can be compared to simulations from a computer model of the Mars atmosphere called M-GITM (Mars Global Ionosphere-Thermosphere Model), developed at U. of Michigan. This is the first detailed comparison between direct global dust storm period measurements in the upper atmosphere of Mars and simulated MGITM fields and is important because it can help to inform us what physical processes are acting on the upper atmosphere during such large dust events. Since the global circulation plays a role in the structure, variability, and evolution of the atmosphere, understanding the processes that drive the winds in the upper atmosphere of Mars also provides key context for understanding how the atmosphere behaves as a whole system. A basic version of the M-GITM code can be found on Github as follows: https:/github.com/dpawlows/MGITM and About 4 months of Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer (NGIMS) measurements of densities and winds have been made by the MAVEN team during the summer of 2018 (Elrod et al., 2019). Nine reference measurement intervals during this global dust storm (1-June through 30-August 2018) are selected for detailed study (Elrod et al. 2019). The Mars conditions for these nine intervals have been used to launch corresponding M-GITM code simulations, yielding 3-D neutral density, temperature and wind fields for comparison to these NGIMS measurements. The M-GITM datacubes used to extract the density, temperature and neutral winds, along the trajectory of each orbit path between 140 and 240 km, are provided in this Deep Blue Data archive. README files are provided for each datacube, detailing the contents of each file. A general README file is also provided that summarizes the inputs and outputs of the M-GITM code simulations for this study.

- Description:
- Studying the effect of wind on urban air mobility typically requires comprehensive fluid dynamics simulations in a realistic urban geometry. Motivated to enable wide-spread autonomous drone activity in urban centers, such studies have indeed been considered by several authors in the recent literature. However, the accessibility of these approaches to those with less fluid dynamics experience and/or without access to purpose built simulation tools has limited validation and application of the resulting path planning strategies. and The .dat files contain the flow variables for each of the 402240 points sampled from the region under study. For flow visualization purposes, the .dat files are readable using Tecplot Software.

- Description:
- The relationship between words in a sentence often tell us more about the underlying semantic content of a document than its actual words, individually. Recent publications in the natural language processing arena, more specifically using word embeddings, try to incorporate semantic aspects into their word vector representation by considering the context of words and how they are distributed in a document collection. In this work, we propose two novel algorithms, called Flexible Lexical Chain II and Fixed Lexical Chain II that combine the semantic relations derived from lexical chains, prior knowledge from lexical databases, and the robustness of the distributional hypothesis in word embeddings into a single decoupled system. In short, our approach has three main contributions: (i) unsupervised techniques that fully integrate word embeddings and lexical chains; (ii) a more solid semantic representation that considers the latent relation between words in a document; and (iii) lightweight word embeddings models that can be extended to any natural language task. Knowledge-based systems that use natural language text can benefit from our approach to mitigate ambiguous semantic representations provided by traditional statistical approaches. The proposed techniques are tested against seven word embeddings algorithms using five different machine learning classifiers over six scenarios in the document classification task. Our results show that the integration between lexical chains and word embeddings representations sustain state-of-the-art results, even against more complex systems.

- Description:
- This section contains work related to the modeling of voltage degradation in a 24 cell PEM fuel cell stack with 300 cm2 cross-sectional area. The experimental hardware used to validate the model consists of a computer controlled system that coordinates air, hydrogen, cooling, and electrical subsystems to operate the stack. Dry hydrogen is pressure regulated for full utilization in the dead-ended anode. Using a solenoid valve, the anode is periodically purged to recover the gradual degradation in voltage. A membrane based humidifier controls the vapor content of the cathode gas stream while a mass flow controller is used to regulate the flow to the desired stoichiometry.

- Description:
- The NASA MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) spacecraft, which is currently in orbit around Mars, has been taking monthly measurements of the speed and direction of the winds in the upper atmosphere of Mars between about 140 to 240 km above the surface. The observed wind speeds and directions change with time and location, and sometimes fluctuate quickly. These measurements are compared to simulations from a computer model of the Mars atmosphere called M-GITM (Mars Global Ionosphere-Thermosphere Model), developed at U. of Michigan. This is the first comparison between direct measurements of the winds in the upper atmosphere of Mars and simulated winds and is important because it can help to inform us what physical processes are acting on the observed winds. Some wind measurements have similar wind speeds or directions to those predicted by the M-GITM model, but sometimes, there are large differences between the simulated and measured winds. The disagreements between wind observations and model simulations suggest that processes other than normal solar forcing may become relatively more important during these observations and alter the expected circulation pattern. Since the global circulation plays a role in the structure, variability, and evolution of the atmosphere, understanding the processes that drive the winds in the upper atmosphere of Mars provides key context for understanding how the atmosphere behaves as a whole system. A basic version of the M-GITM code can be found on Github as follows: https:/github.com/dpawlows/MGITM and About 30 Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer (NGIMS) wind campaigns (of 5 to 10 orbits each) have been conducted by the MAVEN team (Benna et al., 2019). Five of these campaigns are selected for detailed study (Roeten et al. 2019). The Mars conditions for these five campaigns have been used to launch corresponding M-GITM code simulations, yielding 3-D neutral wind fields for comparison to these NGIMS wind observations. The M-GITM datacubes used to extract the zonal and meridional neutral winds, along the trajectory of each orbit path between 140 and 240 km, are provided in this Deep Blue Data archive. README files are provided for each datacube, detailing the contents of each file. A general README file is also provided that summarizes the inputs and outputs of the M-GITM code simulations for this study.

- Description:
- The goal of the work is to elucidate the stability of a complex experimentally observed structure of proteins. We found that supercharged GFP molecules spontaneously assemble into a complex 16-mer structure that we term a protomer, and that under the right conditions an even larger assembly is observed. The protomer structure is very well defined, and we performed simulations to try and understand the mechanics underlying its behavior. In particular, we focused on understanding the role of electrostatics in this system and how varying salt concentrations would alter the stability of the structure, with the ultimate goal of predicting the effects of various mutations on the stability of the structure. There are two separate projects included in this repository, but the two are closely linked. One, the candidate_structures folder, contains the atomistic outputs used to generate coarse-grained configurations. The actual coarse-grained simulations are in the rigid_protein folder, which pulls the atomistic coordinates from the other folder. All data is managed by signac and lives in the workspace directories, which contain various folders corresponding to different parameter combinations. The parameters associated with a given folder are stored in the signac_statepoint.json files within each subdirectory. The atomistic data uses experimentally determined protein structures as a starting point; all of these are stored in the ConfigFiles folder. The primary output is the topology files generated from the PDBs by GROMACS; these topologies are then used to parametrize the Monte Carlo simulations. In some cases, atomistic simulations were actually run as well, and the outputs are stored alongside the topology files. In the rigid_protein folder, the ConfigFiles folder contains MSMS, the software used to generate polyhedral representations of proteins from the PDBs in the candidate_structures folder. All of the actual polyhedral structures are also stored in the ConfigFiles folder. The actual simulation trajectories are stored as general simulation data (GSD) files within each subdirectory of the workspace, along with a single .pos file that contains the shape definition of the (nonconvex) polyhedron used to represent a protein. The logged quantities, such as energies and MC move sizes, are stored in .log files. The logic for the simulations in the candidate_structures project is in the Python scripts project.py, operations.py, and scripts/init.py. The rigid_protein folder also includes the notebooks directory, which contains Jupyter notebooks used to perform analyses, as well as the Python scripts used to actually perform the simulations and manage the data space. In particular, the project.py, operations.py and scripts/init.py scripts contain most of the logic associated with the simulations.

- Description:
- This information provides the data and commands to manually setup the computational simulations used in the PLOS ONE paper 'Patient-specific modeling of right coronary circulation vulnerability post-liver transplant in Alagille’s syndrome' using CRIMSON (CARDIOVASCULAR INTEGRATED MODELLING & SIMULATION) a prototype simulation environment developed under the support of the European Research Council (( http://www.crimson.software/)., Note that a Windows version of the CRIMSON flowsolver is provided as part of the CRIMSON Windows installer, but you will need a very powerful Windows computer to run these simulations, as the models used in the present work are extremely computationally-demanding. It is recommended that you use a Linux version of the CRIMSON flowsolver on a high-performance computer., Option 1 (ready-to-use files to immediately start the simulation): 1. Please unzip the Ready-to-use files. 2. Copy the folders of each of the three conditions to the high performance computer. 3. In addition to different codes used, each folder provides the boundary conditions applied in the simulations described in the manuscript (e.g. LPN parameters). To run the 3D simulations for each condition simply launch the it using the CRIMSON flowsolver. In addition, the solver.inp file can be modified to run a 0D "real-time simulation" (please open solver.inp with a text editor and modify line 4 "Simulate in Purely Zero Dimensions:" to "True")., Option 2 (using the MITK files): 1. Please download and install Crimson software ( http://www.crimson.software/). 2. Please unzip the MITK files and the Ready-to-use files. 3. From amongst the provided MITK files, load the MITK file of interest to CRIMSON (using the MITK files, additional changes can be made to the computational model in case the user wants to explore different settings/boundary conditions e.g. change the vascular wall properties, introducing a change in the geometry to create a virtual stenosis). 3. Navigate to the tree in the "Data Manager" panel and select the "Pulmonaries", "CRIMSON SOLVER" and then "Solver study 3D" items, in the described order. 4. In the right hand panel select the "CRIMSON Solver setup" tab and scroll down the right hand bar until to find the "Setup Solver" box; click to output the simulation files (faceInfo.dat, geombc.dat.1, multidomain.dat, netlist_surface.dat,numstart.dat, presolver folder, solver.inp, restart.0.1). 5. Copy and replace the geombc.dat.1 and restart.0.1 generated by CRIMSON for each individual condition to the respective unziped folder in the Ready-to-use file (discard the remaining files that were output by CRIMSON). Note that if you have not changed anything about the model (e.g. vascular wall properties), then doing this will produce restart.0.1 and geombc.dat.1 files which are identical to the ready-to-use versions. 6. Finally copy each Condition folder to the high performance computer and simply launch the simulation using the CRIMSON flowsolver., and For technical queries please contact crimson-users@googlegroups.com. --October 2018.

- Description:
- Investigating minimum human reaction times is often confounded by the motivation, training, and state of arousal of the subjects. We used the reaction times of athletes competing in the shorter sprint events in the Athletics competitions in recent Olympics (2004-2016) to determine minimum human reaction times because there's little question as to their motivation, training, or state of arousal. The reaction times of sprinters however are only available on the IAAF web page for each individual heat, in each event, at each Olympic. Therefore we compiled all these data into two separate excel sheets which can be used for further analyses.

- Description:
- In this work , we study the problem of allocating limited security countermeasures to protect network data from cyber-attacks, for scenarios modeled by Bayesian attack graphs. We consider multi-stage interactions between a network administrator and cybercriminals, formulated as a security game. We propose parameterized heuristic strategies for the attacker and defender and provide detailed analysis of their time complexity. Our heuristics exploit the topological structure of attack graphs and employ sampling methods to overcome the computational complexity in predicting opponent actions. Due to the complexity of the game, we employ a simulation-based approach and perform empirical game analysis over an enumerated set of heuristic strategies. Finally, we conduct experiments in various game settings to evaluate the performance of our heuristics in defending networks, in a manner that is robust to uncertainty about the security environment.
