Published: April 2024

This paper presents a Proposed Energy Management Strategy (PEMS) for an electric vehicle powered by a fuel cell generator with a storage system based on a super capacitor. A PEMS is needed for hybrid sources in order to manage the energy flow from different sources to supply the power train. Thus, for simulating the studied system under two driving cycles, the MATLAB/Simulink has been used. The obtained results proved a good efficiency of the developed PEMS by minimizing as possible fuel consumption of the main power source.

Customized deep learning based Turkish automatic speech recognition system supported by language model
Authors: Görmez Yasin 
Published: April 2024

Background
In today’s world, numerous applications integral to various facets of daily life include automatic speech recognition methods. Thus, the development of a successful automatic speech recognition system can significantly augment the convenience of people’s daily routines. While many automatic speech recognition systems have been established for widely spoken languages like English, there has been insufficient progress in developing such systems for less common languages such as Turkish. Moreover, due to its agglutinative structure, designing a speech recognition system for Turkish presents greater challenges compared to other language groups. Therefore, our study focused on proposing deep learning models for automatic speech recognition in Turkish, complemented by the integration of a language model.

Methods
In our study, deep learning models were formulated by incorporating convolutional neural networks, gated recurrent units, long short-term memories, and transformer layers. The Zemberek library was employed to craft the language model to improve system performance. Furthermore, the Bayesian optimization method was applied to fine-tune the hyper-parameters of the deep learning models. To evaluate the model’s performance, standard metrics widely used in automatic speech recognition systems, specifically word error rate and character error rate scores, were employed.

Results
Upon reviewing the experimental results, it becomes evident that when optimal hyper-parameters are applied to models developed with various layers, the scores are as follows: Without the use of a language model, the Turkish Microphone Speech Corpus dataset yields scores of 22.2 -word error rate and 14.05-character error rate, while the Turkish Speech Corpus dataset results in scores of 11.5 -word error rate and 4.15 character error rate. Upon incorporating the language model, notable improvements were observed. Specifically, for the Turkish Microphone Speech Corpus dataset, the word error rate score decreased to 9.85, and the character error rate score lowered to 5.35. Similarly, the word error rate score improved to 8.4, and the character error rate score decreased to 2.7 for the Turkish Speech Corpus dataset. These results demonstrate that our model outperforms the studies found in the existing literature.
Investigating mortality salience as a potential causal influence and moderator of responses to laboratory pain
Authors: You Beibei , Wen Hongwei , Jackson Todd 
Published: April 2024

Background
Because pain can have profound ramifications for quality of life and daily functioning, understanding nuances in the interplay of psychosocial experiences with pain perception is vital for effective pain management. In separate lines of research, pain resilience and mortality salience have emerged as potentially important psychological correlates of reduced pain severity and increased tolerance of pain. However, to date, there has been a paucity of research examining potentially interactive effects of these factors on pain perception. To address this gap, the present experiment investigated mortality salience as a causal influence on tolerance of laboratory pain and a moderator of associations between pain resilience and pain tolerance within a Chinese sample.

Methods
Participants were healthy young Chinese adults (86 women, 84 men) who first completed a brief initial cold pressor test (CPT) followed by measures of demographics and pain resilience. Subsequently, participants randomly assigned to a mortality salience (MS) condition completed two open-ended essay questions in which they wrote about their death as well as a death anxiety scale while those randomly assigned to a control condition completed analogous tasks about watching television. Finally, all participants engaged in a delay task and a second CPT designed to measure post-manipulation pain tolerance and subjective pain intensity levels.

Results
MS condition cohorts showed greater pain tolerance than controls on the post-manipulation CPT, though pain intensity levels did not differ between groups. Moderator analyses indicated that the relationship between the behavior perseverance facet of pain resilience and pain tolerance was significantly stronger among MS condition participants than controls.

Conclusions
This experiment is the first to document potential causal effects of MS on pain tolerance and Ms as a moderator of the association between self-reported behavior perseverance and behavioral pain tolerance. Findings provide foundations for extensions within clinical pain samples.

Published: April 2024

The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the floristic diversity, phytosociological spectra and geographical characteristics of the understorey of the old abandoned plantation of the Yangambi Biosphere Reserve, using the Martineau and Blanc-étoc silvicultural methods. This was done to fill gaps in our knowledge of the latter. The experimental setup consisted of 50*50 m (Martineau method, 2023) and 50*50 m (Blanc-étoc, 2023). All undergrowth species with a diameter of 5.0 cm or greater were inventoried using Letouzey's [1] established technique. Technical abbreviations were clearly explained upon first use. The websites www.tropicos.org and www.ville-ge.ch/musinfo/bd/cjb/africa and the catalogue-flora of vascular plants in the Kisangani and Tshopo districts of the DR Congo were consulted to determine the phytosociological and geographical spectrum. After analysis, it is apparent that the Strombosio-Parinarietea species carry more significance than other varieties found in Martineau and Musanga-Terminalietea in Blanc-étoc. Compared to the other vegetation types studied, our observations show that the endemic species from Guinea and Congo are more abundant in the understorey. Consequently, the study shows a complete geographical convergence, while phytosociologically there is a complete divergence between the two silvicultural methods observed.

Published: April 2024

Tobacco caterpillar, Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) is an economically important polyphagous pestinflicting significant economic damage to numerous field and horticultural crops. Overreliance of chemical insecticides to manage the pest has led to the development of resistance, resurgence and residue problem in the crop ecosystems, in addition to high operating costs. Biopesticides have been reported to be effective for managing this pest in ecofriendly manner. Hence, the present study was conducted to assess the efficacy of different bio pesticides against S. litura under laboratory conditions at Bihar Agricultural College, Sabour, Bhagalpur during the rabi of 2022-23. It was conducted in completely randomized design (CRD) with eight treatments and three replications. Among the various biopesticides evaluated, Steinernema carpocapsae- 500 IJs/Petri Plate and Metarhizium anisopliae 1×108 spores/ml -5g/l were most effective treatments and at par each other with 93.00 and 82.50 per cent larval mortality, respectively. They had performed equally with chemical check, Emmamectin benzoate 5 SG- 0.4 g/l which recorded with 95.63 % larval mortality. Neem oil 1500 ppm- 5 ml/litre and Beauveria bassiana 1×108 @5ml/l were the next best treatments with 78.31 and 59.38 % larval mortality respectively. The order of efficiency was Emamectin benzoate 5 SG (0.4g/l) > EPNs (500 IJs) >Metarhizium anisopliae 1% WP (5g/l) >Neem oil 1500 ppm (5 ml/litre) >Beauveria bassiana1 % WP (5 g/l) >Metarhizium anisopliae 1 % WP (2.5 g/l) >Beauveria bassiana 1 % WP (2.5 g/l).
Overexpression of HmgD causes the failure of pupariation in Drosophila by affecting ecdysone receptor pathway
Authors: Chen Jing , Wang Hui , Wang Yu‐Feng 
Published: March 2008

AbstractHmgD encodes Drosophila homologue of high mobility group proteins (HMGD), which are thought to have an architectural function in chromatin organization. However, current opinions about the function of HMGD in Drosophila development are controversial. Our previous studies have shown that ubiquitous overexpression of HmgD caused the formation of melanotic tumors in the Drosophila larvae by prematurely activating the Ras‐MAPK pathway. Here we report that under maternal control, the viability of flies links with overexpression of HmgD, while under ubiquitous control, ActGal4, overexpressing HmgD animals, which display prolonged larval stages around day 13, developmentally stagnate in the larva‐white pupa transition. Ecdysone feeding did not rescue overexpressing HmgD animals. RT‐PCR analyses show that overexpression of HmgD does not affect the temporal expression pattern of ecdysone receptor gene EcR, whereas transcriptional patterns of some key regulatory genes, such as E74A, E74B, E75A, E75B, βFTZ‐F1, are changed greatly. These results suggest that ubiquitous overexpression of HmgD results in the failure of pupariation neither by affecting the process of ecdysone synthesis and release nor by abnormal EcR transcription, but by causing expression of EcR regulatory nuclear receptors out of schedule. The results led us to postulate that overexpression of HMGD likely changes the signaling cascade of Drosophila metamorphosis by an interaction between HMGD and DNA strands, and subsequently by an error of DNA binding abilities and transcriptional activities of some nuclear receptor genes.

Tracking changes in Z‐band organization during myofibrillogenesis with FRET imaging
Authors: Stout Andrea L. , Wang Jushuo , Sanger Jean M. , Sanger Joseph W. 
Published: March 2008

AbstractThere are a large number of proteins associated with Z‐bands in myofibrils, but the precise arrangements of most of these proteins in Z‐bands are largely unknown. Even less is known about how these arrangements change during myofibrillogenesis. We have begun to address this issue using Sensitized Emission Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (SE‐FRET) microscopy. Cultured skeletal muscle cells from quail embryos were transfected to express fusions of alpha‐actinin, FATZ, myotilin, or telethonin with cyan and yellow fluorescent proteins in various pair wise combinations. FATZ and myotilin were selected because previous biochemical studies have suggested that they bind to alpha‐actinin, the major protein of the Z‐band. Telethonin was selected for its reported ability to bind FATZ. Statistical analysis of data from FRET imaging studies yield results that are in agreement with published biochemical data suggesting that FATZ and myotilin bind to alpha‐actinin near its C‐terminus as well as to each other and that a region near the amino‐terminus of FATZ is responsible for its interaction with telethonin. In addition, our analysis has revealed changes in the arrangement of alpha‐actinin and FATZ that take place during the transition as the z‐bodies of premyofibrils fuse to form the Z‐bands of mature myofibrils. There was no evidence for a change in the arrangement of myotilin as z‐bodies transformed into Z‐bands. Myotilin is one Z‐band protein that does not exhibit decreased dynamics as z‐bodies fuse to form Z‐bands. These FRET results from living cells support a stepwise model for the assembly of myofibrils.

AbstractNuclear actin and nuclear myosins have been implicated in the regulation of gene expression in vertebrate cells. Myosin V is a class of actin‐based motor proteins involved in cytoplasmic vesicle transport and anchorage, spindle‐pole alignment and mRNA translocation. In this study, myosin‐Va, phosphorylated on a conserved serine in the tail domain (phospho‐ser1650 MVa), was localized to subnuclear compartments. A monoclonal antibody, 9E6, raised against a peptide corresponding to phosphoserine1650 and flanking regions of the murine myosin Va sequence, was immunoreactive to myosin Va heavy chain in cellular and nuclear extracts of HeLa cells, PC12 cells and B16‐F10 melanocytes. Immunofluorescence microscopy with this antibody revealed discrete irregular spots within the nucleoplasm that colocalized with SC35, a splicing factor that earmarks nuclear speckles. Phospho‐ser1650 MVa was not detected in other nuclear compartments, such as condensed chromatin, Cajal bodies, gems and perinucleolar caps. Although nucleoli also were not labeled by 9E6 under normal conditions, inhibition of transcription in HeLa cells by actinomycin D caused the redistribution of phospho‐ser1650 MVa to nucleoli, as well as separating a fraction of phospho‐ser1650 MVa from SC35 into near‐neighboring particles. These observations indicate a novel role for myosin Va in nuclear compartmentalization and offer a new lead towards the understanding of actomyosin‐based gene regulation. Cell Motil.

Sulfonation of Phenols Extracted from the Pyrolysis Oil of Oil Palm Shells for Enhanced Oil Recovery
Authors: Awang Mariyamni , Seng Goh Meng 
Published: March 2008

AbstractThe cost of chemicals prohibits many technically feasible enhanced oil recovery methods to be applied in oil fields. It is shown that by‐products from oil palm processing can be a source of valuable chemicals. Analysis of the pyrolysis oil from oil palm shells, a by‐product of the palm oil industry, reveals a complex mixture of mainly phenolic compounds, carboxylic acids, and aldehydes. The phenolic compounds were extracted from the pyrolysis oil by liquid–liquid extraction using alkali and an organic solvent and analyzed, indicating the presence of over 93 % phenols and phenolic compounds. Simultaneous sulfonation and alkylation of the pyrolysis oil was carried out to produce surfactants for application in oil fields. The lowest measured surface tension and critical micelle concentration was 30.2 mN m−1 and 0.22 wt %, respectively. Displacement tests showed that 7–14 % of the original oil in place was recovered by using a combination of surfactants and xanthan (polymer) as additives.

AbstractLewis base free hydrido complexes of yttrium and lutetium supported by bulky cyclohexyl‐substituted guanidinato ligands, [Ln(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2]2 (Ln = Y, Lu), were synthesized and characterized. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies revealed dimeric structures. 1H NMR spectroscopy shows that complex [Y(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2]2 retains its dimeric structure in C6D6 solution. Scrambling of the hydrido complexes [Ln(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2]2 (Ln = Y, Lu) in C6D6 resulted in an equilibrium mixture containing the heterodimetallic species [{(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2Y(μ‐H)2Lu{(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2], indicating the dissociation of dimers and the presence of monomeric species in solution. Both compounds initiate the polymerization of ethylene: the activity of the cyclohexyl‐substituted yttrium complex, [Y(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NCy)2}2]2, is much lower than that of the isopropyl‐substituted analogue, [Y(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NiPr)2}2]2, while in the case of lutetium the activities of [Ln(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NR)2}2]2 (R = iPr, Cy) are similar. Complexes [Ln(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NR)2}2]2 (Ln = Y, Lu; R = iPr, Cy) were shown to catalyze efficiently the hydrosilylation of 1‐nonene with PhSiH3 (at a 1:1 substrates mol ratio) to give the terminal silane PhSiH2(n‐C9H19) exclusively. If the hydrosilylation reaction is carried out in the presence of a twofold molar excess of 1‐nonene, double addition takes place and leads to the formation of tertiary silane PhSiH(n‐C9H19)2, which was obtained in 96 % yield. The hydrido complexes [Ln(μ‐H){(Me3Si)2NC(NiPr)2}2]2 (Ln = Y, Lu) efficiently initiate the ring‐opening polymerization of ϵ‐caprolactone to give polymers with molar mass up to 80000.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Published: March 2008

AbstractThe synthesis of zinc(II) and copper(II) complexes of an unsymmetrical bis(thiosemicarbazonato) ligand containing a reactive styrene group are reported. The compounds have been characterised by a range of techniques including reverse‐phase HPLC, cyclic voltammetry, NMR, UV/Vis, electron paramagnetic resonance and fluorescence emission spectroscopy. Time‐dependent density functional theory calculations have been used to assign the electronic absorption spectrum of [ZnIIATSM] and probe the nature of the fluorescent excited state. Electrochemistry experiments show that the copper(II) complex undergoes quasi‐reversible one‐electron reduction at biologically accessible potentials and is within the range proposed for the complex to be hypoxia‐selective. The copper‐64 radiolabelled complex has been prepared in aqueous solution and characterised by reverse‐phase radio‐HPLC. Cellular uptake in HeLa cells has been observed using confocal fluorescence microscopy.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2008)
Antioxidant capacity of the striped sunflower seed (Helianthus annuus L.) aqueous extract
Authors: de Lourdes Reis Giada Maria 
Published: March 2008

AbstractThe aim of this work was to study the aqueous extract of cotyledons derived from the striped sunflower seeds, with regard to the kinetics of its antioxidant capacity and its phenolic composition. The results showed that, among the phenolic compounds of this extract which were identified by gas chromatography, chlorogenic acid (12.88%) was the prevailing compound. The effectiveness of the aqueous extract in the β‐carotene/linoleate model system was estimated on the basis of the oxidation induction period, which was determined by the method of tangents to the two parts of this extract's kinetic curve, and the study showed that the extract antioxidants may be effective in blocking radical chain reactions and may also interfere with the reactions that produce the secondary products that speed up the system's oxidative process when present in higher concentrations (233.2 µg/mL). The result found by the Rancimat® method showed that the aqueous extract at 300 µg/mL (15.2% IP) was comparable to the BHA standard at 100 µg/mL (16.0 ± 0.86%) in a lipidic system.
