description: For several years the cargo center of the City of Ingolstadt, together with car maker Audi, pioneers
in the field of PV integration into industrial buildings. The latest showcase was realized together with Glaswerke
Arnold and Masdar PV, modifying 5.7m² large photovoltaic modules in such a way that they are appropriate for
walkable overhead glassing construction. The entire glass roof has an area of 11.600m2 with the 1728 PV
modules covering an area of 9900 m2 and representing an installed nominal power of roughly 760 kWp. This
paper describes the technical specifications and modifications of the BIPV modules, and the structural design of
the sub construction, provides some overall and detailed impressions on the realized project and shows initial
performance data.

description: This job analyses the behavior of small grid connected inverters and propose a simplified model for
inverters efficiency that takes into account efficiency variations due to temperature. The model has been tested with
one year data of five 1kW PV arrays of different technologies, including thin-film ones, installed at Carlos III
University in Leganés (Madrid). Modeling parameters show enhanced consistence in predicting the inverter
efficiency for dynamic conditions of solar irradiance and ambient temperature within ±2.5%.

Large PV Power Plants and Distributed PV: System Aspects and Grid Connection

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 4027-4029
description: Partial energy loss due to soiling, especially in climates where rainfall is rare, is one of most important energy loss factors that can be influenced by the operator during the life of a PV plant. Snow cover can be seen as a special case of soiling applicable in regions with colder climate. The PV power production for Murcia in Spain, Munich in Germany and Stockholm in Sweden has been modeled by PVsyst for a 1 MW plant with fixed tilt angle
and with 2-axis tracking. A break-even analysis between share of one year's energy loss due to soiling and cleaning cost was conducted for the different locations. As basis for the evaluation industrial or spot prices for electricity were used. An economical benefit of cleaning can be seen in Murcia, maybe in Munich, but probably not in Stockholm assuming a cleaning cost of €2500/MW and assuming industrial electricity price. With a spot electricity price it is probably only in Murcia a revenue benefit of cleaning can be seen. It is unlikely that there is an economical benefit to
remove snow from a PV plant in Stockholm assuming a snow removal cost in the same order as for soil cleaning.

description: This work is devoted formation of architecture of energetically independent buildings with the
integrated PV systems in resort-improving and educational-recreational complexes and their building.
Estimations were made at a local level and micro level of an energy potential of development in a combination to
constructive decisions of PV systems for subsequent architecturally-constructive designing of buildings, first of all
for placing PV modules on the building facades and roofs. The developed plasticity of a facade or a silhouette of a
building allow to place more PV modules on the south side and, hence, receive 40-50 % more energy in absolute
indicators. The estimation of efficiency allows revealing the most favorable tendency in the use of various
proportions of a building. The estimation of an energy potential of development and subsequent architecturallyconstructive
designing are united as a single method. This work shows possibilities of creation integrated PV systems
and perfection of volume-spatial and typological solutions of energetically independent buildings on the patter of

description: We provide a detailed comparison of the two-dimensional, temporal and the spatiotemporal linearized analyses of the viscoelastic free shear flows in the limit of low to moderate Reynolds number and Elasticity number obeying four different types of stress-strain constitutive equations: Oldroyd-B, Upper Convected Maxwell, Johnson-Segalman (JS) and linear Phan-Thien Tanner (PTT). The resulting fourth-order Orr-Sommerfeld Equation is transformed into a set of six auxiliary equations that are numerically integrated via the Compound Matrix Method. The temporal stability analysis suggest (a) elastic stabilization at higher values of elasticity number, (b) a non-monotonic instability pattern at low to intermediate values of elasticity number for the JS as well as the PTT model. To comprehend the effect of elasticity, Reynolds number and viscosity on the temporal stability curves of the PTT model, we consider a fourth parameter, the centerline shear rate, $ζ_c$. The `JS behaviour' is recovered below a critical value of $ζ_c$ and above this critical value the PTT base stresses (relative to the JS model) is attenuated thereby explaining the stabilizing influence of elasticity. The Briggs idea of analytic continuation is deployed to classify regions of temporal stability, absolute and convective instabilities, as well as evanescent modes, and the results are compared with previously conducted experiments for Newtonian as well as viscoelastic flows past a cylinder. The phase diagrams reveal the two familiar regions of inertial turbulence modified by elasticity and elastic turbulence as well as (a recently substantiated) region of elastoinertial turbulence and the unfamiliar temporally stable region for intermediate values of Reynolds and Elasticity number.

PV in the Electricity Mix

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 4401-4405
description: With the constantly increasing contribution of PV to the electricity mix, reliable predictions of the
expected PV power production are getting more and more important as a basis for management and operation
strategies. Here, we present a new approach for irradiance forecasting to improve the operational PV power
prediction system of University of Oldenburg and Meteocontrol GmbH by integrating additional data sources,
including satellite images and different numerical weather prediction systems. For short term forecast horizons up to
four hours ahead, irradiance forecasts based on cloud motion vector fields from satellite images perform significantly
better than forecasts of numerical weather prediction systems, demonstrated in an evaluation with 290 measurement
stations in Germany. The investigation of an optimized combination of the different data sources in dependence on
the forecast horizon is a second focus of the paper and the benefit of this approach is shown.

A novel approach based on Single Shot Multi-Box meta-architecture (SSD) for real-time rebar detection in bridge decks is adapted for first time in this paper. Extensive experiments on accuracy and resource usage tradeoffs are presented. Two Depthwise Separable CNN backbone networks, MobileNet V1 and MobileNet V2 are used as feature extractor for SSD detector. Various strategies are implemented to trade accuracy for resource usage of the models while keeping Average Precession (mAP) in an acceptable range.
Dental Age Estimation and Demographics in a US Urban Population
Creators: name: Sethi, Neha
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: Dental age estimation is widely used in forensic dentistry and legal proceedings. Numerous estimation methods for the sub-adult population exist, however they are variably accurate due to differences in children’s growth patterns. In particular, children’s dental development patterns are influenced by a multitude of factors, including obesity, ancestry, socioeconomic status (SES), and geographic location. The London Atlas of Human Tooth Development and Eruption (LA) was established in the 2000s as a widely used reference database. It is distinct for being explicitly based on a diverse and contemporary sample, namely children of British and Bangladeshi origin. This study employs the LA method for dental age estimation.
The objective of this research study is to compare chronological age and calculated age using the LA method on panoramic images. The ∆age (difference in age between estimated dental age and known chronological age) was calculated and then compared for differences against sociodemographic data. In this study, children along with their parents are recruited, and they are requested to participate by completing a questionnaire. This questionnaire includes inquiries regarding ancestry, income, and food security status. Additionally, pertinent data such as height, weight, and panoramic images were extracted from the electronic health records for BMI and dental age calculation.
In our sample (n=44), it was found that the LA method overestimated dental age by 1.4 years (p<0.001). Preliminary analysis failed to find an association between dental age and the BMI groups and ancestral groups. Additional incidental findings included no statistical difference in dental age estimation based upon socioeconomic status group or reported food security/insecurity. Our sample was unexpectedly more homogenous than anticipated based upon prior documentation of clinic demographics. Approximately 70% of respondents identified as Hispanic/Latinx, 77% were rated low socioeconomic status, and 31 % reported some degree of food insecurity. These findings emphasize the need for further investigation of more applicable dental age estimation methods, as well as to understand additional factors influencing dental development.

description: Early phase optical spectra of aspherical jet-like supernovae (SNe) are presented. We focus on energetic core-collapse SNe, or hypernovae. Based on hydrodynamic and nucleosynthetic models, radiative transfer in SN atmosphere is solved with a multi-dimensional Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code, SAMURAI. Since the luminosity is boosted in the jet direction, the temperature there is higher than in the equatorial plane by ~ 2,000 K. This causes anisotropic ionization in the ejecta. Emergent spectra are different depending on viewing angle, reflecting both aspherical abundance distribution and anisotropic ionization. Spectra computed with an aspherical explosion model with kinetic energy 20 x 10^{51} ergs are compatible with those of the Type Ic SN 1998bw if ~ 10-20% of the synthesized metals are mixed out to higher velocities. The simulations enable us to predict the properties of off-axis hypernovae. Even if an aspherical hypernova explosion is observed from the side, it should show hypernova-like spectra but with some differences in the line velocity, the width of the Fe absorptions and the strength of the Na I line.

description: We study quenched SU(N) gauge theories with fermions in the two-index symmetric, antisymmetric and the adjoint representations. Our main motivation is to check whether at large number of colours those theories become non-perturbatively equivalent. We prove the equivalence assuming that the charge-conjugation symmetry is not broken in pure Yang-Mills theory. We then carry out a quenched lattice simulation of the quark condensate in the symmetric, antisymmetric and the adjoint representations for SU(2), SU(3), SU(4), SU(6) and SU(8). We show that the data support the equivalence and discuss the size of subleading corrections.

description: The nature of the first generation of stars in the Universe remains largely unknown. Observations imply the existence of massive primordial stars early in the history of the universe, and the standard theory for the growth of cosmic structure predicts that structures grow hierarchically through gravitational instability. We have developed an ab initio computer simulation of the formation of primordial stars that follows the relevant atomic and molecular processes in a primordial gas in an expanding universe. The results show that primeval density fluctuations left over from the Big Bang can drive the formation of a tiny protostar with a mass of just one percent that of the Sun. The protostar is a seed for the subsequent formation of a massive primordial star.

description: This short note introduces a geometric representation for binary (or ternary) sequences. The proposed representation is linked to multivariate data plotting according to the radar chart. As an illustrative example, the binary Hamming transform recently proposed is geometrically interpreted. It is shown that codewords of standard Hamming code $\mathcal{H}(N=7,k=4,d=3)$ are invariant vectors under the Hamming transform. These invariant are eigenvectors of the binary Hamming transform. The images are always inscribed in a regular polygon of unity side, resembling triangular rose petals and/or ``thorns''. A geometric representation of the ternary Golay transform, based on the extended Golay $\mathcal{G}(N=12, k=6, d=6)$ code over $\operatorname{GF}(3)$ is also showed. This approach is offered as an alternative representation of finite-length sequences over finite prime fields.

A model for the Globular Cluster extreme anomalies
Creators: name: D'Antona, F.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In spite of the efforts made in the latest years, still there is no comprehensive explanation for the chemical anomalies of globular cluster stars. Among these, the most striking is oxygen depletion, which reaches values down to [O/Fe]~-0.4 in most clusters, but in M13 it goes down to less than [O/Fe]~ - 1. In this work we suggest that the anomalies are due to the super position of two different events: 1) PRIMORDIAL SELF-ENRICHMENT: this is asked to explain the oxygen depletion down to a minimum value [O/Fe]~ -0.4; 2) EXTRA MIXING IN A FRACTION OF THE STARS ALREADY BORN WITH ANOMALOUS COMPOSITION: these objects, starting with already low [O/Fe], will reduce the oxygen abundance down to the most extreme values. Contrary to other models that invoke extra mixing to explain the chemical anomalies, we suggest that it is active only if there is a fraction of the stars in which the primordial composition is not only oxygen depleted, but also extremely helium rich (Y~ 0.4), as found in a few GCs from their main sequence multiplicity. We propose that the rotational evolution (and an associated extra mixing) of extremely helium rich stars may be affected by the fact that they develop a very small or non existent molecular weight barrier during the evolution. We show that extra mixing in these stars, having initial chemistry that has already been CNO processed, affects mainly the oxygen abundance, and to a much smaller extent if affects the sodium abundance. The model also predicts a large fluorine depletion concomitant with the oxygen depletion, and a further enhancement of the surface helium abundance, which reaches values close to Y=0.5 in the computed models. We stress that, in this tentative explanation, those stars that are primordially O--depleted, but ARE NOT extremely helium rich do not suffer deep extra mixing.

description: Large-scale star formation in disk galaxies is hypothesized to be driven by global gravitational instability. The observed gas surface density is commonly used to compute the strength of gravitational instability, but according to this criterion star formation often appears to occur in gravitationally stable regions. One possible reason is that the stellar contribution to the instability has been neglected. We have examined the gravitational instability of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) considering the gas alone, and considering the combination of collisional gas and collisionless stars. We compare the gravitationally unstable regions with the on-going star formation revealed by Spitzer observations of young stellar objects. Although only 62% of the massive young stellar object candidates are in regions where the gas alone is unstable, some 85% lie in regions unstable due to the combination of gas and stars. The combined stability analysis better describes where star formation occurs. In agreement with other observations and numerical models, a small fraction of the star formation occurs in regions with gravitational stability parameter Q > 1. We further measure the dependence of the star formation timescale on the strength of gravitational instability, and quantitatively compare it to the exponential dependence expected from numerical simulations.

title: Use of molecular markers and antioxidant properties to study biodiversity and to discriminate blueberries
Creators: name: Bhatt, Dhrumit Shaileshbhai

Year: 2021

description: Blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) have gained much attention worldwide with their potential health benefits and economic importance. Estimation of genetic diversity using molecular markers, antioxidant properties, and their association can reveal genotypes with important characteristics and help in berry improvement programs. Genetic diversity was estimated in blueberry hybrids, wild clones, and cultivars using expressed sequence tag- simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR), genomic (G)-SSR, and EST- polymerase chain reaction (PCR) markers. The antioxidant efficacy was estimated by total phenolic and flavonoid contents in blueberry hybrids, wild clones, and cultivars. Wide diversity existed among the genotypes, for antioxidant properties with the highest variation for 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (20-fold) followed by the contents of total flavonoids (16-fold) and phenolics (3.8-fold). Although a group of 11 hybrids generated the maximum diversity for antioxidant activity (15-fold), wild clones collected from Quebec, Canada, had the maximum variation for total phenolic (2.8-fold) and flavonoid contents (6.9-fold). Extensive genetic diversity was evident from Shannon's index (0.34 for EST-SSRs, 0.29 for G-SSR, 0.26 for EST-PCR) and expected heterozygosity (0.23 for EST-SSR, 0.19 for G-SSR, 0.16 for EST-PCR). STRUCTURE analysis separated the genotypes into three groups, which were in agreement with principal coordinate and neighbor-joining analyses. Molecular variance suggested 19% variations among groups and 81% among genotypes within groups. Clustering based on biochemical data and molecular analysis did not coincide, indicating a random distribution of loci in the blueberry genome conferring antioxidant properties. However, the stepwise multiple regression analysis (SMRA) revealed that a total of 17 EST-SSR, G-SSR, and EST-PCR markers were associated with antioxidant properties. The outcome of this study will provide valuable information for the selection of blueberry genotypes with desired traits, breeding, and germplasm conservation programs.
Harunobu : an Ukiyo-e artist who experimented with Western- style art
Creators: name: Hockley, Allen F.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: From the beginning of serious art historical study of Japanese woodblock prints or Ukiyo-e, the artist Suzuki Harunobu (1725-1770) has been accorded a prominent position in the development of that art form primarily because of his role in the creation of the first full colour prints. This, and his particular conception of feminine beauty which he chose to illustrate most often as the main subject of his art, made him the dominant artist of his generation. The popularity he achieved during his lifetime was monumental, but he met with a premature and untimely death. Shortly after his death Shiba Kōkan (1747-1818), a young artist just beginning his career, made forgeries of Harunobu's prints and later admitted to doing so in his autobiography. Based on Kōkan's confession, there developed among art historians and connoisseurs, a long running, at times heated and, as yet, unresolved debate focussed upon determining which of Harunobu's prints are in fact forgeries. Because Kōkan eventually acquired fame as an artist who experimented with styles and techniques newly imported to Japan from Europe, Harunobu's prints that contain linear perspective, one such Western technique, have traditionally and without question been designated as forgeries. To this author, making such an attribution based on this criterion seems somewhat illogical. Why would Kōkan introduce something foreign to Harunobu's style into prints he intended to pass off as Harunobu's originals? The simplest resolution to this quandary is to assume that Harunobu must have also been experimenting with imported European styles. Based on this premise, this thesis introduces literary and visual evidence linking Harunobu to a number of sources of European-style art. Much of this evidence was uncovered through a re-examination of Harunobu's prints and literary accounts of his life in accordance with the social and artistic context in which he worked. The prints and the documents which this thesis discusses have long been known to art historians. They simply needed to be reworked to support this premise. This thesis does, however, introduce one print from the collection of the Oregon Art Institute which seems to have been overlooked by other scholars. It provides a clear example of Harunobu's Western-style art and through visual analysis of it, its sources can be identified among the Western-style megane-e of Maruyama ōkyo ( 1733-1795). The concluding section of this thesis examines the consequences of this evidence. Two of the so-called forgeries are reattributed to Harunobu and his prints as a whole are recast within the tradition of Western-style art in Japan.

Our studies are performed using both exact diagonalization and Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) on the sphere. We find that for the Coulomb interaction the exact finite-system ground state is fully polarized, for shifts corresponding to both the Moore-Read Pfaffian state and its particle-hole conjugate (anti-Pfaffian). This result is found to be robust against small variations of the interaction. The low-energy excitation spectrum is consistent with spin-wave excitations of a fully-magnetized ferromagnet.

description: Sustainable power output is a primary value driver for photovoltaic installations and directly impacts the bankability of the investment in terms of payback time and profitability. The photovoltaic industry has established power output performance standards which are written into warranty agreements for devices and solar installations. While there are many sources of loss of power output in a solar array; the performance and durability of the laminating encapsulant is considered to be a key factor. Silicone when used as an encapsulant for PV modules offers several benefits due to its
unique properties. One such property is its stability in ultraviolet (UV) light, which allows for greater transparency and a power efficiency gain compared to incumbent ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Organic based encapsulant materials, such as EVA, require the addition of UV absorbers to prevent degradation in sunlight; however, these additives also decay over time. This paper reviews the potential impact of encapsulation choice in terms of durability of the encapsulant material and specifically compares the performance of EVA versus silicone encapsulants.
Mystical poetry of Jalaloddin Rumi and Jacopone da Todi : A comparison
Creators: name: Rassekh, Chohre
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: "Mystical poetry of Jalaloddin Rumi and Jacopone da Todi: A comparison" attempts to analyze and prove the possibility of a comparison of mystical poetry of the Eastern and Western traditions. The consciousness of the One (which is ineffable) is the goal of the mystical experience. This experience finds its expression in the following ways: 1- By affirming its ineffability through the insufficiency of words (the negative way does not exist in complete separation from the affirmative). 2- By relying on imagery and symbols drawn from the phenomenal world and translating abstract concepts into terms that men can understand. The purpose of this dissertation is to prove that Jacopone da Todi's and Jalallodin Rumi's use of poetic imagery from physical reality is the best expression of their mystical quest. Poetry for Jacopone and Rumi, through metaphorical presence, becomes a vehicle toward Reality. The introduction investigates the historical setting and Rumi's and Jacopone's lives in relation to the cultural environment of the time. The first chapter discusses and defines the concept of mysticism and emphasizes the importance of two fundamental ideas in every type of mysticism: the ideas of Love and Transformation. The second chapter discusses the concept of love as used by Jacopone and Rumi in their poetry. Love is seen as a gift; man in his weakness would never be able to attract it or reject. Love is also seen as frenzy and passion, hence the use of images from even the most intimate sphere of life and from sensual love. The chapter, through close analysis of different texts, will also explore the relation between earthly love and spiritual love. The third chapter demonstrates how the concept of transformation, essential to spiritual growth, is developed in the poetry of Jacopone and Rumi through the use of imagery. The symbols of the Cross for Jacopone and of Fire for Rumi are used as examples of purification and growth through sacrifice: "What is poor brushwood when it falls into the fire? Is not the brushwood transformed into a spark by the fire"? The fourth chapter presents a thesis on the language of mysticism or the "mystical lexicon" found in the two poets analyzed despite the apparent lack of any interdependence between them or dependence by them on a common source.

described. Main characteristics and differences between these systems, as the testing procedure (flash mode vs quasisteady
conditions), the measurement instrumentation used and the contacting methods available, are explained. Both
systems are being inter-compared in order to ensure their quality, to allow cross-reference between their results and to
improve their reliability. Experimental data corresponding to a set of commercial-type multi-Si solar cells measured
with both systems are presented and preliminary deductions on the role of the temperature and the contact forms are
pointed out.

description: For regular continued fraction, if a real number $x$ and its rational approximation $p/q$ satisfying $|x-p/q|<1/q^2$, then, after deleting the last integer of the partial quotients of $p/q$, the sequence of the remaining partial quotients is a prefix of that of $x$. In this paper, we show that the situation is completely different if we consider the Hurwitz continued fraction expansions of a complex number and its rational approximations. More specifically, we consider the set $E(ψ)$ of complex numbers which are well approximated with the given bound $ψ$ and have quite different Hurwitz continued fraction expansions from that of their rational approximations. The Hausdorff and packing dimensions of such set are determined. It turns out that its packing dimension is always full for any given approximation bound $ψ$ and its Hausdorff dimension is equal to that of the $ψ$-approximable set $W(ψ)$ of complex numbers. As a consequence, we also obtain an analogue of the classical Jarník Theorem in real case.

description: Thermoelectric power sensors used as power transfer standards are promising devices for further enhancements of the microcalorimetric technique in the high frequency field. A coaxial microcalorimeter has been studied, based on thermoelectric power sensors, at Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (INRIM). In the literature, several models have been proposed, considering different calibration processes and error sources. Hereby we analyze these models in terms of total uncertainty for the 3.5 mm coaxial line case between 10 MHz and 26.5 GHz. Merits and limits of the models are highlighted.

description: Thin films polycrystalline CuInSe2 with different Cu/In ratios (0.49 - 1.1) were deposited on glass substrates by electrochemical methods. A structural transition exists for the electrodeposited CulnSe2, from a tetragonal to cubic structure as the film composition varies from copper rich to indium rich. CuInSe2 has a chalcopyrite structure with lattice constant  = C/2 = 5.7 A. The SEM studies on these films showed that the grain size increases the Cu/In ratio increases from 0.49 to 1.1. The variation of the band gap with different Cu/In ratios was determined from optical absorption measurements. The results showed that the band gap decreases varies nonlinearly with different cu/In ratios.

description: Report Summary: Nigeria is a republic within the British Commonwealth of independent nations. In 1962 total imports of foodstuffs (excluding fish), drink, and tobacco items were valued at $55.8 million. This represented 10 percent of that nation's imports of goods, a percentage which has not changed noticeably since 1954. A substantial part of Nigeria's agricultural imports of wheat and tobacco are from the United States. U. S. shipments of wheat and wheat flour to Nigeria have risen considerably during the past decade. They ranged from 1 to 2.6 million bushels, wheat equivalent, from 1954 through 1962. The recent opening of a flour mill near Lagos resulted in wheat replacing wheat flour as an import product. Imports of unmanufactured tobacco from the United States have been 2.8 million pounds per year, but there has been no tendency for imports of American leaf tobacco to rise, since Nigerian production has been expanding. Exports of U. S. dairy products to Nigeria have consisted almost entirely of milk powder donated under Public Law 480. U. S. wheat exports to Nigeria are projected to reach, at a minimum, 2.2 million bushels in 1965 and 4.2 million bushels by 1975. The United States may also export about 2.8 million pounds of unmanufactured tobacco to Nigeria in 1965 and in 1975, Projections show commercial exports of powdered milk reaching 3,100 metric tons by 1975. On a percentage basis the United States may expect to supply at least 67 percent of Nigeria's wheat and tobacco needs in 1965 and 1975 and at least 20 percent of her dry milk needs in 1975.
description: The United States Department of Agriculture contracted with the Department of Political Economy, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, to prepare a projection of supply, demand, and trade in Nigeria. The independent, unabridged study (149 pages of text, charts, and tables) was published by the U. S. Department of Agriculture under the title, Nigeria: Determinants of Projected Level of Demand, Supply, and" Imports of Farm Products in 1965 and 1975. ERS-Foreign-32. The comprehensive study utilizes accepted methodology and is based on realistic assumptions. It provides a rational projection of the import demand in 1965 and 1975 for selected agricultural products. The major findings of the above report are now summarized in this shorter report. Conclusions are set forth, and implications of the projections to U. S. agriculture presented.

description: The paper describes the realization process of the high frequency power standard based on a twin broadband microcalorimeter designed for effective efficiency measurement of coaxial power sensors with indirect heating thermocouples. The presented procedures involve microcalorimeter measurement and calibration steps, parameters computation and systematic errors correction for both long-term and accelerated algorithms. Also, a new method for determining the key parameters of high frequency power standards is proposed.

The targum (1974:Sep. 12 - 1974:Sep. 30)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1974

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: The relations between the hidden symmetries of the six-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with signature (+++ -- ) and the conserved quantum characteristics of elementary particles is established. The hidden symmetries are brought out by the various forms of representation of the pseudo-Euclidean space metric with the aid of spinors and hyperbolic complex numbers. Using the emerging hidden symmetry groups one can disclose such conserved quantum characteristics as spin, isospin, electric and baryon charges, hypercharge, color and flavor. One can also predict the exact number of such conserved quantum characteristics of quarks as color and flavor.

description: Photovoltaic integration is today one of the most significant areas of technological and aesthetic innovation
in the field of sustainable architecture. Noted an insufficient awareness about "BIPV" concept at widespread scale, can be
even considered complicit of this the absence of valid “certification tools”aimed to encourage an increased quality of the
“integration project”, as happened in the experience of energy and environmental labeling. The proposed Bipv.tool, is
based on the idea to “evaluate”or, in some way, to “measure”a BIPV rating, in a logic of an integration concept more
complex than current criteria. This method is conceived as a multi-criteria grid of evaluation, structured in different
classes of integrability, scales of scoring and weighting criteria, that ranges from architectural aspects to constructive or
energetic ones. Scores, derived from this series of qualitative and quantitative requirements, leads to a brief final score for
the examined project. Some recent tests on BIPV cases, one of which is here presented, highlight first results of the
evaluation method for new buildings. Furthermore are listed potential scenarios of development, implementation and
specialization that we hope to evolve in the near future.

description: Monolithic Module Assembly (MMA) modules made using back contact crystalline silicon cells
present new and interesting challenges for Failure Analysis (FA) and Cell-to-Module (CTM) analysis compared to
conventional front contact cells. This paper describes the use of electroluminescence imaging (EL), infra-red
imaging (IR), and module shading screen IV techniques to characterize individual cell performance in modules to aid
in FA, and validation of the contribution of loss elements to module performance. The approach was to build
Monolithic Module Assembly (MMA) type modules using EWT back contact cells in different sizes: 3x4 and 6x10
scale, to evaluate the contribution of shunting and resistive loss elements in the module circuit and to characterize
loss mechanisms during prototype builds using the above mentioned techniques. Development of new techniques for
module characterization is important because back contact cells provide current to the circuit differently than front
contact cells. The technology used here employs electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) to provide the cell to circuit
interconnection and it is important to characterize and eliminate the new, potential failure modes associated with this
relatively new interconnect method to prove that high reliability can be obtained with MMA modules.
