Abstract Social media platforms have broadened the scope of voices responding to social justice movements, significantly impacting public conversations of important social justice issues. This social network analysis examined hashtags that were invoked on Twitter in the aftermath of the Mike Brown shooting in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson in 2014. From the millions of tweets globally, the use of specific hashtags appeared to focus the conversation on Twitter toward the personal meaning of story events and framed the shooting as something relatable to the posters’ own lives and experiences. Keywords Ferguson, hashtags, social justice, Twitter In our media-saturated world, more people than ever have the potential to be a storyteller through the use of social media and mobile streaming applications. Of particular note, individuals and groups have used social media platforms to provide perspective and commentary about the struggle for social justice in powerful ways. While conversations taking place on social media are not necessarily driving the news cycle of traditional news media, social media platforms have emerged as an important venue to amplify less powerful voices in the overall media landscape, as users disrupt, confront, or counteract traditional narratives through their own storytelling (see Blevins, 2019; Bonilla and Rosa, 2015; Everbach et al., 2018; Fews, 2017; Gross, 2017; Langford and Speight, 2015; Schiappa, 2014).

Spanish Language Children and Teen’s Books Fo cusing on Human Sexuality and Reproductive Health Kathy Ladell Founders Memorial Library, Northern Illinois University, DeKalb, Illinois, USA ABSTRACT

Talking to children and teens about sexuality is difficult for most parents, especially for those whose primary language is Spanish. Teens who come to the United States from Spanish speaking countries are also at a disadvantage because of a language barrier. Many times there is a lack of high quality Spanish materials that have been reviewed on the topic of sex and reproductive health. There are serious consequences of unplanned teen pregnancies to communities such as poverty, low educational attainment and other health disparities. This bibliography reviews human sexuality titles in Spanish for both children and teens. Professionals in the healthcare or medical libraries, school librarians, public librarians and academic librarians will find this bibliography valuable for the purposes of educating the public and developing their institution’s collection.

In recent years, there has been a significant decline in teen pregnancy. According to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, "the pregnancy rate for all teens declined 55% between 1990 (the peak year for teen pregnancy) and 2011” (The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy 2016, 1). While this is good news, the rate of decline among Latino teens in particular is not as pronounced as for non-Hispanic white adolescents. In 2002, the national average of pregnancies for teens aged 15 to 19 years was 75.4 per 1000 teens, whereas the average for the Latinas was 131.5 per 1000 teens (Sterling and Sadler 2009, 21). Many researchers have argued that poverty, low educational attainment, and lack of sexual health education are responsible for sexual health inequalities between Latino and non-Latino groups (Alcalde and Quelopana 2013; Arevalo and Amaro 2010). These sexual health disparities will have a large impact on both social services and healthcare systems since Latinos are the fastest growing minority group in the United States and by 2030 will comprise more than a quarter of all U.S. teens. Along with the negative outcomes of teen pregnancy, "Spanish speakers find it especially hard to get appropriate information in general because the U.S. health care system is mostly designed CONTACT Kathy Ladell kladell@niu.edu Lincoln Hwy, DeKalb, Illinois 60115, USA

Olga Hart and Carol Olausen Introduction

Introduction International students come to Western universities to “visit, learn from, and ultimately return home invigorated from this new cultural experience.”1 Nevertheless, the cultural experiences that students will face can prove to be daunting. Many students at the University of Cincinnati (UC) come from cultures that differ greatly from the US, and it is these differences that may cause students to lose confidence and even jeopardize their adaptation to a new learning environment. As this population continued to grow, so did the challenges and frustrations. Staff members with whom students interacted were finding themselves frequently frustrated that they didn’t always understand what it was that students needed, why students didn’t follow the instructions they had already been given, or why students didn’t appear more proactive in securing assistance if they were having difficulty. Something was missing in our engagement with students, which was ultimately hindering our ability to successfully support their academic success. We saw with staff and students that cultural perspectives were “bumping” into one another. We therefore needed a way for staff to consider the ways in which our own culture impacted our interactions with others and, consequently, how someone else’s cultural perspective was not necessarily wrong but rather just different. 43

The presence of international students at the University of Cincinnati (UC) campus provides wonderful opportunities for domestic students to learn about other cultures and “understand and see the world from others’ perspective.”1 However, domestic students may not initiate contact with peers from other countries. Similarly, international students may mostly engage with friends from their country of origin. Experts name multiple barriers to intercultural communication (including language and attitude), such as lack of openness, respect, and curiosity2 as well as distrust.3 In addition, many international students are under pressure to succeed academically and are busy with their coursework.4 At UC, faculty and campus services are making concerted efforts to create experiences for cross-cultural communication and facilitate meaningful interactions between domestic and international students. Campus libraries are a natural crossroads for students. Many international students become regulars, finding a favorite spot to study and getting together with friends. It was at the central library at UC that we met the international students who helped us springboard our intercultural event series from small gatherings to large celebrations.

Limit fluctuations for density of asymmetric simple exclusion processes with open boundaries WĹ‚odzimierz Bryc and Yizao Wang Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Cincinnati, 2815 Commons Way, Cincinnati, OH, 45221-0025, USA. E-mail: wlodzimierz.bryc@uc.edu; yizao.wang@uc.edu Received 30 April 2018; revised 11 October 2018; accepted 18 October 2018

Abstract. We investigate the fluctuations of cumulative density of particles in the asymmetric simple exclusion process with respect to the stationary distribution (also known as the steady state), as a stochastic process indexed by [0, 1]. In three phases of the model and their boundaries within the fan region, we establish a complete picture of the scaling limits of the fluctuations of the density as the number of sites goes to infinity. In the maximal current phase, the limit fluctuation is the sum of two independent processes, a Brownian motion and a Brownian excursion. This extends an earlier result by Derrida et al. (J. Statist. Phys. 115 (2004) 365–382) for totally asymmetric simple exclusion process in the same phase. In the low/high density phases, the limit fluctuations are Brownian motion. Most interestingly, at the boundary of the maximal current phase, the limit fluctuation is the sum of two independent processes, a Brownian motion and a Brownian meander (or a time-reversal of the latter, depending on the side of the boundary). Our proofs rely on a representation of the joint generating function of the asymmetric simple exclusion process with respect to the stationary distribution in terms of joint moments of a Markov processes, which is constructed from orthogonality measures of the Askey–Wilson polynomials.

RĂŠsumĂŠ. Nous ĂŠtudions les fluctuations de la densitĂŠ de particules dans un processus d’exclusion simple asymĂŠtrique sous la distribution stationnaire (ou ĂŠtat stable), vues comme un processus stochastique indexĂŠ par [0, 1]. Pour trois des phases du modèle et Ă leurs frontières nous obtenons une description complète des limites d’Êchelles de ces fluctuations lorsque le nombre de sites tend vers l’infini. Dans la phase de courant maximal, la limite est la somme de deux processus indĂŠpendants : un mouvement brownien et une excursion brownienne. Ce rĂŠsultat ĂŠtend celui obtenu prĂŠcĂŠdemment par Derrida et al. (J. Statist. Phys. 115 (2004) 365–382) pour le processus d’exclusion simple totalement asymĂŠtrique et dans la mĂŞme phase. Dans les phases de fortes et faibles densitĂŠs, les limites sont des mouvements browniens. De façon plus intĂŠressante, Ă la frontière de la phase de courant maximal, la limite est la somme de deux processus indĂŠpendants : un mouvement brownien et un mĂŠandre brownien (ou, selon la partie de la frontière, un mĂŠandre brownien renversĂŠ en temps). Nos dĂŠmonstrations reposent sur une reprĂŠsentation des fonctions gĂŠnĂŠratrices des lois fini-dimensionnelles du processus d’exclusion simple asymĂŠtrique en termes de moments joints d’un processus de Markov construit Ă partir de mesures rendant orthogonaux les polynĂ´mes d’Askey–Wilson.

“Library and Gallery Exhibitions as Public Scholarship: Public Engagement with Images of Ethnicity, Gender, Place, Race, and War in Illustrated Sheet Music”

Book Reviews mass incarceration, human trafficking, child labor, agricultural debt bondage, and sexual exploitation. Defining slavery is a challenge that sits at the hearts of several of these essays. A working definition established in 2012 that modern slavery involved “control over a person in such a way as to significantly deprive that person of his or her personal liberty, with the intent of exploitation through the use, management, transfer or disposal of that person” (pp. 19–20). Violence and deception are also common. Such a definition moves beyond a property-based understanding, in David Richardson’s words, to provide “a means to relate slavery past and present” (p. 44). Building on Orlando Patterson’s notion that slavery constituted a form of “social death” when it was the law of the land, James Sidbury argues that modern slavery is perhaps better thought of in terms of victims’ “inability to appeal to civil rights and authorities. . . . They suffer from civic death” (pp. 82–83). The past is also touchstone for the present in the essays regarding the question of “what to do about it.” The authors acknowledge that important differences exist between combating slavery in the present, when virtually everyone regards it as illegal, and the efforts of abolitionists in the past to undermine the legal institution. The tools that worked for, say, transatlantic abolitionists and the British navy may not apply today. But, as Dave Blair observes, past efforts can be a useful guide when we remember that innovation, crowdsourcing and viral messaging, and a broad-based marketplace of ideas drove the stake through the heart of slavery in the past, not just Parliamentary measures or slave patrols of the African coast. A central tenet here, then, is that understanding the history of slavery and its suppression in the past more fully will equip us to combat it in the present. Taken together, the collection reads like an extended thought experiment that reveals both the mutability and insidiousness of human bondage throughout the world. Coming at the subject from different disciplines and with interests in both the past and present, the authors make a compelling case that we must understand that slavery will continue to evolve

Committed to Memory: The Art of the Slave Ship Icon. By Cheryl Finley. (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2018. xii, 306 pp. $49.50.) Heavily Illustrated. Cheryl Finley’s brilliant book is a chronological and international visual genealogy of the slave ship icon from its inception as a schematic engraving by the Plymouth Committee of the Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade in England, Plan of an African Ship’s Lower Deck with Negroes in the Proportion of Only One to a Ton (1788) to the work of contemporary black artists and their allies who “interrogate, redeploy, and imagine” it (p. 10). Finley convincingly asserts that the enduring icon galvanized African diaspora identity formation and aesthetic practice in the late twentieth century through “mnemonic aesthetics,” a ritualized politics of remembering (p. 9). The book’s first part, “Sources/Roots,” establishes the slave ship icon as the preeminent abolitionist image in its historical and political contexts. Finley deftly examines how and why the London committee changed the icon’s initial iteration into Description of a Slave Ship (1789), the most widely disseminated version (at least 8,700 copies were distributed). Abolitionists used it variously for slave trade regulation, abolition, and suppression, African colonization, and chattel slavery abolition. Finley’s analysis is so meticulous that it is perplexing how she calculated 297 slaves in the Plymouth print when there are actually 294 (120 men, 84 women, 90 children), as she enumerates (p. 34). The plate represents sailing records of the Brooks ship of Liverpool, at 297 tons’ burden, or cargo capacity, yet the pamphlet states “in the proportion of not quite one to a ton” (p. 24). The book’s design, with images sometimes distant from related text (e.g., discussion of one image occurs on page 27, but the image does not appear until page 56), hampers reading-viewing, as does the

The following is an article from a novice author and demonstrates SPN's commitment to assisting first time authors in the process of getting a manuscript published. The process involves multiple iterations as frequently the work originally was an academic assignment. For various reasons, the topic selected was ofinterest to the author and the learning involved both the study/project activity and the major ways of communicating that activity. The demands of dissemination to a broad audience require greater clari fication of the available literature and, where there are gaps, rationale for instrument selection and subject identi fication. In the subsequent article, the author sought to revisit earlier findings related to consecutive hours worked and nurse-reported fatigue and the relationship offatigue to mood and work/life balance at a pediatric setting. The findings were interesting and did provide direction for potential mitigation strategies to reduce nurse fatigue in general and speci fically for a unique population. Background/introduction Nurses who work N12 h at a time are three times more likely to make a patient error than those who work eight hours ( Rogers, Hwang, Scott, Aiken, & Dinges, 2004 ). In 2011, The Joint Commission issued a Sentinel Event Alert regarding nurse fatigue and an increased risk to patient safety. Given the supporting literature that directly lin ks nurse fatigue to patient errors, organizations need to have a mitigation plan to decrease nurse fatigue. As the understanding of the physiology of sleep evolves, there is a growing body ofliterature related to nurse fatigue. The aim of this study was to obtain a baseline measurement of sleep, physical activity, The mission of the Society of Pediatric Nurses is to support its members in their practice. One means of accomplishing this mission is to keep membership informed of innovative initiatives involving the board, committees, and members that promote research, clinical practice, education, and advocacy within the larger pediatric healthcare community. This department serves that purpose. Funding support for this research study was supported by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health Pilot Research Training Program of the University of Cincinnati and Research Center Grant #T42/OH008432-09.

and work hours and to relate these to the fatigue and mood states of registered nurses working either a 12-h or 8-h shift in a pediatric medical center hospital. Study results will be used in future studies designed to test mitigation strategies to decrease nurse fatigue, improve mood, and improve work/life balance.

Overview of the literature Many hospitals offer nurses the opportunity to work either 12-h or 8-h shifts. Research has shown that 12-h shifts, as compared to 8-h shifts, adversely affect nurse job performance and increase patient care errors ( Geiger-Brown & Trinkoff, 2010 ).

Nurse experience/risk The research has found that nurses working longer shifts or overtime experienced fatigue and poor quality of sleep, which affected their vigilance, alertness, reaction time and decision-making ability Bae & that resulted in an increased likelihood of sustaining an injury ( Fabry, 2014 ). According to Rogers et al. (2004) , in a population-based sample of 393 staff nurses covering 5317 shifts, nurses working 12 h or more (due to overtime) reported over three times the odds of making errors versus nurses working 8-h shifts. In a study looking at nurse satisfaction and burnout, Stimpfel, Sloane, and Aiken (2012) reported that nurses working shifts of ten hours or longer were two and a half times more likely to experience burnout and job dissatisfaction. Although some evidence supports that errors increase with extended work hours, researchers have also reported that nurses prefer working 12-h shifts and/or like having the choice to work extended hours ( Harris et al., 2015 ). The gap between what is healthy staf fing for nurses and what nurses prefer becomes a challenge when exploring potential mitigation strategies for fatigue. Patient experience/risk Rogers et al. (2004) found nurses that worked longer than 12.5 h were more likely to commit patient-related errors with adverse patient outcomes and had a three time greater risk of making medical errors. In a more recent study, Han, Trinkoff, and Geiger-Brown (2014) found long work hours during nurses' typical work schedules were signi ficantly related to patient mortality. Stimpfel and Aiken (2013) found

Clinical Implications of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Adolescents Lisa M. Hachey, Melanie Kroger-Jarvis, Tamara Pavlik-Maus & Rhonda Leach ABSTRACT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy, affecting as many as 5% to 20% of women of reproductive age, depending on the diagnostic criteria applied. Features of PCOS include physiologic anovulation, hyperandrogenism, elevated luteinizing hormone, and increased gonadotropin-releasing hormone pulse frequency, which often manifest physically as acne and hirsutism. The clinical presentation of PCOS often mimics normal pubertal physiologic development, which may delay diagnosis and treatment of the condition in adolescent girls. A diagnosis of PCOS has life-long implications and is associated with increased risk for infertility, obesity, Type 2 diabetes, endometrial hyperplasia, uterine carcinoma, metabolic disorder, and cardiovascular disease. In this article, we provide an overview of clinical presentation, diagnostic criteria, health consequences, and current evidence-based clinical guidelines for the appropriate diagnosis and management of PCOS in adolescents. doi: 10.1016/j.nwh.2020.01.011

Introduction

T

he U.S. health care system has been beset by significant shortcomings for several decades despite numerous attempts to resolve them. These problems pertain to inequity in access to care, unabated cost inflation, and uneven distribution of quality care. Segments of the population continue to have limited access to care due to inability to pay, residential location, and/or other factors. Some of the medical care rendered is ineffective, inappropriate, or wasteful, whereas some effective care is withheld for economic or other reasons.1 Quality of care varies by provider, location, and practice pattern. Health care expenditures in the United States now constitute 18.3% of the gross domestic product, soon to be 20%, yet, the health status of Americans lags behind that of people in other industrialized countries.2 The health insurance market is becoming more unstable due to recent changes in federal policy,3 and the numbers of uninsured and underinsured are increasing. These trends will likely become exacerbated by the aging of the population and the attendant increase in the incidence of chronic illness, the prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles, and the degradation of the living environment. In addition, restrictions on interstate licensing limit competition and access. The fee-for-service payment system is obsolete and unresponsive to economic challenges. Ultimately, the health care system of the future will face mounting pressures to achieve two seemingly incompatible

goals. First, to improve the population’s health and second, to contain cost, that is, to accomplish more with fewer resources. Traditional modes of medical practice, roles of provider and patient, and modes of financing health care will not be adequate to meet the challenge.

A New Paradigm A new paradigm will be required to reorient, reorganize, and restructure the care delivery process to achieve more efficiency, greater precision, and improved productivity and outreach. To be successful and to the extent possible, the system must address all mutable determinants of health, including lifestyle, genetics, environment, and medical care. It must assure equitable access to the full spectrum of care, including health/promotion disease/prevention, care for the sick, rehabilitation of the disabled and infirm, palliative care, and humane end-of-life care. Patients must be actively engaged in managing their own health and health care. A formal triage system (powered by artificial intelligence4) with explicit protocols must be implemented to direct patients to the appropriate sources of care (taking into account their socioeconomic status and insurance status), and to encourage appropriate use of service while also discouraging inappropriate use. Importantly, the integrated health care system of the future must incorporate advances in science and technology to deliver precise and personal care. As times goes on, there will be two dynamic forces pushing for system reform: The first is societal in nature, and it consists of two complex trends: (1) the growth of informed consumers and the wide availability of health information, the demand for accountability, and the increased emphasis on health outcomes and (2) increasing economic pressures and constraints on revenue. The second pertains to scientific and technological advances that offer unprecedented capabilities to deliver precision medicine and to connect patients and providers regardless of time and distance constraints. These include artificial intelligence, robotics, data analytics, advanced information and communication technology, genomics, virtual reality, and nanotechnology. The potential of these technologies to be integrated into the health care system effectively and efficiently, however, is often subject to legislative and regulatory delays and inefficiencies (e.g., FDA approval process).

Severe peripheral nervous system injuries currently hold limited therapeutic solutions. Existing clinical techniques such as autografts, allografts, and newer nerve guidance conduits have shown variable outcomes in functional recovery, adverse immune responses, and in some cases low or minimal availability. This can be attributed in part to the lack of chemical, physical, and electrical cues directing both nerve guidance and regeneration. To address this pressing clinical issue, electrospun nanofibers and microfibers composed of piezoelectric polyvinylidene flouride-triflouroethylene (PVDF-TrFE) have been introduced as an alternative template for tissue engineered biomaterials, specifically as it pertains to their relevance in soft tissue and nerve repair. Here, biocompatible scaolds of PVDF-TrFE are fabricated and their ability to generate an electrical response to mechanical deformations and produce a suitable regenerative microenvironment is examined. It is determined that 20% (w/v) PVDF-TrFE in (6:4) dimethyl formamide (DMF):acetone solvent maintains a desirable piezoelectric coeďŹƒcient and the proper physical and electrical characteristics for tissue regeneration. Further, it is concluded that scaolds of varying thickness promoted the adhesion and alignment of Schwann cells and fibroblasts. This work oers a prelude to further advancements in nanofibrous technology and a promising outlook for alternative, autologous remedies to peripheral nerve damage.

1. Introduction

Peripheral nervous system (PNS) damage manifests in over 67 000 injured Americans annually,[1] is frequently onset by conditions such as diabetes, HIV, and cancer,[2] and disproportionately aects elderly patients.[3] The PNS possesses an inherent regenerative capacity which ensures the repair of minor contusions with limited medical intervention. However, in Grade III and IV injuries, wherein the innermost endoneurial tissue in the PNS surrounding the nerve is transected, recovery is often limited and advanced surgical procedures are necessitated.[4] Neurorrhaphies are typically capable of repairing transections of shorter length yet lack the ability to fully rejoin nerve ends without inflammatory scarring or limited functional recovery.[5] For longer, more traumatic, injury gaps, nonsutured applications such as nerve conduits serve as mechanical guides for regenerative directionality while possessing interchangeable structural chemistry and a capacity for bioactive additives.[6] Nerve autografts, and in some cases allografts, are regarded as the consensus “gold standardâ€? treatment for traumatic injury, but are hindered by availability of donor sites, risk of innervation, and more serious conditions such as neuroma.[7] Such limitations impart a demand for more personalized treatments. As tissue engineering techniques develop, specifically for neural engineering, researchers are increasingly focused on finding autologous approaches to either enhance, or replace, current remedies. Electrospun nanofibrous polymers such as poly(Îľcaprolactone) (PCL) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) are becoming increasingly relevant for tissue engineering applications. Nanofibrous scaolds can be developed to mimic the structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) and are highly tunable to promote desired cell responses.[8] Polyvinylidene fluoridetriflouroethylene (PVDF-TrFE) copolymer exhibits a piezoelectric capacity, wherein electrical current are produced in response to mechanical deformations, mimicking important signaling events and in turn holds potential to induce regenerative phenotypes in certain cells.[9] Additionally, physical

Abstract: Bioactive surfaces and materials have displayed great potential in a variety of tissue engineering applications but often struggle to completely emulate complex bodily systems. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a crucial, bioactive component in all tissues and has recently been identified as a potential solution to be utilized in combination with biomaterials. In tissue engineering, the ECM can be utilized in a variety of applications by employing the biochemical and biomechanical cues that are crucial to regenerative processes. However, viable solutions for maintaining the dimensionality, spatial orientation, and protein composition of a naturally cell-secreted ECM remain challenging in tissue engineering. Therefore, this work used soft lithography to create micropatterned polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates of a three-dimensional nature to control cell adhesion and alignment. Cells aligned on the micropatterned PDMS, secreted and assembled an ECM, and were decellularized to produce an aligned matrix biomaterial. The cells seeded onto the decellularized, patterned ECM showed a high degree of alignment and migration along the patterns compared to controls. This work begins to lay the groundwork for elucidating the immense potential of a natural, cell-secreted ECM for directing cell function and offers further guidance for the incorporation of natural, bioactive components for emerging tissue engineering technologies.

To examine the underlying mechanisms between the ECM and SCs, this work sought to deterwere cultured on polydimethylsiloxane substrates of a variable Young's modulus coated with ECM proteins. Cells were analyzed for spreading area, proliferation, cell and nuclear shape, and c�Jun expression. It was found that substrates with a stiffness of 8.67 kPa coated with laminin promoted the highest expression of c�Jun, a marker signifying a “regenerative� SC. Microcontact printed, cell adhesive areas were then utilized to precisely control the geometry and spreading of SCs and by controlling spreading area and cellular elongation; expression of c�Jun was either promoted or downregulated. These results begin to address the significant interplay between ECM cues and phenotype of SCs, while offering a potential means to enhance PNS regeneration through cellular therapies. K E YW OR D S

A significant portion of tissue engineering research focuses on the ability to derive native biological structures as biomaterials for regenerative purposes [1–8]. Biomimetic structures, in particular, strive to recreate naturally regenerative microenvironments to promote desired cell behavior and mitigate inflammatory responses [9]. Recently, the extracellular matrix (ECM) has been targeted as a bioactive substrate for tissue repair [10–13]. A naturally cell-assembled ECM is able to provide physical support to tissue while concurrently mediating cell and tissue behavior [14,15]. Therefore, desired phenotypic outcomes in tissue engineering such as cell alignment, proliferation, and differentiation are inherently intertwined with the ECM structure and composition [16]. As such, tissue regeneration is largely dependent on the biomechanical and biochemical structure and components of the ECM.

ABSTRACT

rated liquid in the gas-phase are quantitatively identified.

A comprehensive study is conducted to identify the effects of momentum flux ratio on the spray and vaporization characteristics of liquid jet injected in air crossflow at elevated temperatures, a configuration relevant to high-speed propulsion systems, such as ramjets and afterburners. The physical setup consists of a straight chamber with a triangular bluff body downstream of the liquid injection location. The numerical simulations are based on an Eulerian - Lagrangian framework, where the gas phase flow behaviors such as recirculation zones, turbulence statistics, mixing of vaporized liquid and gas streams are resolved by solving the complete set of three-dimensional conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy and species, and the liquid phase is treated using the blob approach and tracked in a Lagrangian coordinate system. Turbulence closure is achieved using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique. Primary breakup of the liquid jet is simulated using the K-H wave breakup model, and the Taylor Analogy Breakup (TAB) model is used for secondary breakup. Two-way coupling between the liquid and gas phases is implemented in the LES framework to systematically model the exchange of mass, momentum and energy between the two phases. The formulation is validated against experimental measurements of liquid jet penetration and sauter mean diameter for a Weber number of 68 and momentum flux ratio of 9 at two temperatures, 298K and 573K. Results show excellent agreement with measurements for both cases. Next, simulations are conducted for a range of momentum flux ratios from 10-140 to identify the detailed gas and spray fields for vaporizing flow cases. This study helps to estimate the penetration of the liquid jet, droplet distribution, and then, location of the core of evapo-
