Factors that Affect Personalization of Robots for Older Adults
We introduce a taxonomy of important factors to consider when designing interactions with an assistive robot in a senior living facility. These factors are derived from our reflection on two field studies and are grouped into the following high-level categories: primary user (residents), care partners, robot, facility and external circumstances. We outline how multiple factors in these categories impact different aspects of personalization, such as adjusting interactions based on the unique nee…

Twistor Hecke eigensheaves in genus 2
Following the strategy outlined in [DP09] arXiv:math/0604617 and [DP22] arXiv:math/0604617 for bundles of rank 2 on a smooth projective curve of genus $2$, we construct flat connections over the moduli of stable bundles, with singularities along the wobbly locus. We verify that the associated $D$-modules are Hecke eigensheaves. The local systems are constructed by the nonabelian Hodge correspondence from Higgs bundles. The spectral varieties of the Higgs bundles are the Hitchin fibers correspon…

Elements of Ion Linear Accelerators + Calm in the Resonances -- and Other Tales
The main part of this book, Elements of Linear Accelerators, outlines in Part 1 a framework for non-relativistic linear accelerator focusing and accelerating channel design, simulation, optimization and analysis where space charge is an important factor. Part 1 is the most important part of the book; grasping the framework is essential to fully understand and appreciate the elements within it, and the myriad application details of the following Parts. The treatment concentrates on all linacs, l…

College Basketball: An In-depth Study of the Foul Up 3 Dilemma
Within college basketball, the decision to foul or not with a 3-point lead (the "foul up 3" dilemma) significantly impacts teams. A single fouling decision can directly determine the outcome of a game or even an entire season. Within this research project, I take a novel look at the "foul up 3" dilemma. As opposed to using time as a blocking factor, as previous studies have, my research focuses on generating a coachable strategy that outlines the superior fouling decision for each moment in tim…

Vortex pattern stabilization in thin films resulting from shear thickening of active suspensions
The need for structuring on micrometer scales is abundant, for example, in view of phononic applications. We here outline a novel approach based on the phenomenon of active turbulence on the mesoscale. As we demonstrate, a shear-thickening carrier fluid of active microswimmers intrinsically stabilizes regular vortex patterns of otherwise turbulent active suspensions. The fluid self-organizes into a periodically structured nonequilibrium state. Introducing additional passive particles of interme…
