Keurium : a novel
\"Shay Stone lies in a hospital bed, catatonic -- dead to the world. Her family thinks it's a ploy for attention. Doctors believe it's the result of an undisclosed trauma. At the mercy of memories and visitations, Shay unearths secrets that may have led to her collapse. Will she remain paralyzed in denial? Or can she accept the unfathomable and break free? KEURIUM threads through one adopted Korean American's life of longing and letting go. On a quest for family, sanity, and survival, it challenges saviorism and forced gratitude. Woven through its heartbreaking fabric is a story of love and resilience. \"KEURIUM tells the harrowing journey of adopted Korean American Shay Stone's fight for her emotional well-being and ultimately, her life. Told in thoroughly satisfying chronological vignettes, this is a brave and necessary novel about hard truths, self-care, self-discovery, and one woman's hard-earned liberation.\"--Amazon.

Topologically Protected States in One-Dimensional Systems
We study a class of periodic Schrödinger operators, which in distinguished cases can be proved to have linear band-crossings or
“Dirac points”. We then show that the introduction of an “edge”, via adiabatic modulation of these periodic potentials by a domain wall,
results in the bifurcation of spatially localized “edge states”. These bound states are associated with the topologically protected
zero-energy mode of an asymptotic one-dimensional Dirac operator. Our model captures many aspects of the phenomenon of topologically
protected edge states for two-dimensional bulk structures such as the honeycomb structure of graphene. The states we construct can be
realized as highly robust TM-electromagnetic modes for a class of photonic waveguides with a phase-defect.

Risk and safety analysis of nuclear systems
\"The book has been developed in conjunction with NERS 462, a course offered every year to seniors and graduate students in the University of Michigan NERS program. The first half of the book covers the principles of risk analysis, the techniques used to develop and update a reliability data base, the reliability of multi-component systems, Markov methods used to analyze the unavailability of systems with repairs, fault trees and event trees used in probabilistic risk assessments (PRAs), and failure modes of systems. All of this material is general enough that it could be used in non-nuclear applications, although there is an emphasis placed on the analysis of nuclear systems. The second half of the book covers the safety analysis of nuclear energy systems, an analysis of major accidents and incidents that occurred in commercial nuclear plants, applications of PRA techniques to the safety analysis of nuclear power plants (focusing on a major PRA study for five nuclear power plants), practical PRA examples, and emerging techniques in the structure of dynamic event trees and fault trees that can provide a more realistic representation of complex sequences of events. The book concludes with a discussion on passive safety features of advanced nuclear energy systems under development and approaches taken for risk-informed regulations for nuclear plants\"--
