Study on electron beam weldability of carbon steel and Cr-Mo steel plate (1988)

For the application of electron beam welding to nuclear and thermal power plant, electron beam weldability of carbon steel (SGV49, SB49) and Cr-Mo low alloy steel (SCMV3A) have been investigated. The results obtained are summarized as follows;(1) Tensile strength and 0.2% proof stress of the welded joint at room temperature and high temperature up to 350°C satisfy the base metal code and the MITI code. Test specimens fractured in the base metal.(2) Tensile properties of carbon steel weld metal are also good.(3) Reference nil ductility temperature (RTND-r) of weld metal in SGV49 steel is -30°C as derived from Charpy V-notch tests and drop weight tests.(4) The high cycle fatigue strength of the welded joint without reinforcement is similar to that of the base metal. The fatigue strength of the joint with reinforcement is lower than that of the base metal, and its fatigue strength reduction coefficient is 1.07 to 1.31 at 105 to 2×106 cycles.
Novel Frequency Chirp Compensation Scheme for Directly Modulated SG DBR Tunable Lasers (2009)

The authors demonstrate a compensation scheme to reduce the frequency chirp associated with directly modulated sampled grating distributed Bragg reflector tunable lasers. Experimental results obtained show that the direct modulation of the laser's gain section results in a large frequency chirp of 25 GHz. However, by simultaneous modulation of the laser's phase section this large frequency chirp can be significantly reduced.

Nicotine Modulates the Expression of a Diverse Set of Genes in the Neuronal SH-SY5Y Cell Line (2003)

Nicotine exposure can have long lasting effects on nervous system function, some of which must contribute to nicotine dependence. Up-regulation, an increase in numbers of radioligand-binding nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), occurs on exposure to nicotine at high concentrations. To determine whether altered gene expression might account for long term changes and up-regulation following nicotine exposure, we assessed effects of 1 h of 1 mm nicotine exposure on alteration of gene expression in the neuron-like SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma clonal line. Repeat and cross-controlled microarray analyses yielded a list of 17 genes from the initially screened approximately 5,000 whose expression was consistently altered following nicotine treatment. Subsequent quantitative, real time reverse transcriptase PCR analyses confirmed altered expression in 14 of 16 genes tested. Further, the general nAChR antagonist, d-tubocurarine, blocked all but two of the observed changes in gene expression, indicating that these changes are dependent on nAChR activation. Use of other antagonists revealed that nAChR subtypes can differentially affect gene expression. The genes affected code for proteins that may be broadly categorized into four groups: transcription factors, protein processing factors, RNA-binding proteins, and plasma membrane-associated proteins. Our results suggest that nicotinic activation of nAChR may have a broad role in affecting cellular physiology through modulating gene expression.
Intraarterial Perfusion of the Hindlimb with Pyridoxalated Hemoglobin Polyoxyethylene Conjugate Solution in Anesthetized Dogs (1995)

To evaluate the potential clinical usefulness of a modified hemoglobin, pyridoxalated hemoglobin polyoxyethylene conjugate (PHP), the hindlimb vascular bed was perfused with PHP solution while monitoring tissue oxygen tension (PtO2) in anesthetized dogs. The hindlimb region was perfused through the external iliac artery with a roller pump at a varying perfusion rate. PtO2 was measured using a PO2-monitoring probe inserted into the gracial muscle. After surgical preparation for perfusion, the iliac arterial flow rate was 19.9 +/- 5.6 ml/min, and baseline PtO2 was 38.4 +/- 1.3 mm Hg. Perfusion with autologous arterial blood with the pump increased PtO2 and perfusion pressure (PP) in a perfusion rate-dependent manner. Perfusion with PHP solution at 20 ml/min decreased PtO2 from the initial baseline level, but an increase in the flow rate to 40-55 ml/min restored or induced an elevation of PtO2. Results demonstrated that PHP solution can deliver oxygen to local tissue and maintain tissue oxygen tension at the same level as autologous arterial blood at a high enough flow rate.
A Line Objects Recognition Algorithm based on Non-subsampled Contourlet Transform (2020)

Aiming at the recognition of line features represented by bridges and airport runways in remote sensing data, this paper presents a line objects extraction algorithm based on Non-subsampled Contourlet Transform(NSCT). Firstly, NSCT is used to decompose the source image into multiple layers and directions to obtain the corresponding frequency sub-bands. Then the Line Segment Detection(LSD) algorithm with visual saliency is used to detect the line segments. Finally, line objects recognition is completed by multi-scale and multi-direction line features combination according to the established fusion rules. Comparison with some traditional algorithms verifies that the proposed algorithm can improve the recognition accuracy.
Nucleotide sequence of an unequal sister chromatid exchange site in a mouse myeloma cell line. (1989)

The mouse myeloma cell line MPC 11 carries two C gamma 2a immunoglobulin heavy-chain genes on the expressed chromosome, a duplication shown to have occurred through unequal sister chromatid exchange (USCE). In the present report, we present the nucleotide sequence of the USCE joint and show that both breaks occurred within tracts of repeated TC dinucleotides. Additional TC dinucleotide tracts and two oligonucleotide segments (N sequences) were inserted at the USCE site.
A novel multiplex polymerase chain reaction assay for detection of both HLA‐A*31:01/HLA‐B*15:02 alleles, which confer susceptibility to carbamazepine‐induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (2017)

HLA-A*31:01 and HLA-B*15:02 have been widely reported to confer genetic susceptibility to carbamazepine (CBZ)-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). Accordingly, the screening for these alleles has been highly recommended to prevent SCAR prior to introducing CBZ therapy. Although a number of methods are available for screening of HLA-A*31:01 or HLA-B*15:02 alleles separately, developing an assay that can detect both these alleles would be more clinically practical, cost-effective and less time-consuming. Therefore, in this study, a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using TaqMan Probe was designed and validated to be able to detect HLA-A*31:01 and HLA-B*15:02. In comparison with Luminex-SSO/SBT/SSB, the multiplex PCR assay for detection of HLA-A*31:01 and HLA-B*15:02 had a perfect agreement in the validation group of 125 samples. The method was able to detect the target genes at the DNA concentration of 0.037 ng/μL. The unit cost of this assay is less than $5 USD with total time of 110 minutes.

TCD-AI protocol can be tolerated for successful ICT, although this study includes small cohort, and large population trial should be taken.
Nonlinear electrodynamics of superconducting NbN and Nb thin films at microwave frequencies (1992)

The surface resistance ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}}$ of NbN and Nb thin films with particular reference to nonlinear effects is reported at high values of the microwave magnetic field ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$\ensuremath{\le}500 Oe using a stripline resonator in the frequency range 0.6\ensuremath{\le}f\ensuremath{\le}12 GHz. In the stripline geometry, the microwave current is concentrated on the narrow center conductor. Thus a high microwave current density and, therefore, a high ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ can be achieved with moderate power. For Nb thin films, ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}}$ does not increase with ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ for low ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ values, as expected from weak-link theory. However, for the NbN thin films, ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}}$ at temperature T follows a ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}}$(T,f)=${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}0}$(T,f)+S(T,f)${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ dependence, for f6 GHz where ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}0}$(T,f) is the surface resistance at zero ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$, and the slope S(T,f) is proportional to ${\mathit{f}}^{2,3}$. This nonlinear effect is consistent with Halbritter's weak-link theory. For f&gt;6 GHz, ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{s}}$ shows a plateau in the dependence on ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ the magnitude of which varies as ${\mathit{f}}^{3,5}$, which is not predicted theoretically. When ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}$ increases above a critical value ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}^{\mathit{c}}$, the resonance curves for the strip-line resonator become asymmetrical and the intermodulation products saturate, indicating strong nonlinearities. The temperature dependence of ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathrm{rf}}^{\mathit{c}}$(T) for Nb, in contrast to NbN, thin films follows that of the dc ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathit{c}1}$. Information on the granularity of NbN, derived from the present study, provides insights into the surface impedance of the granular high-${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$ copper oxide thin films.
Mechanical and Physical Properties of an Experimental Chemically and Green-Nano Improved Dental Alginate after Proven Antimicrobial Potentials (2023)

The CHX, silver nitrate, and green-synthesized silver nanoparticles could be promising, inexpensive alternatives for the preparation of a self-disinfecting alginate impression material without affecting its performance. Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles could be a very safe, efficient, and nontoxic method, with the advantage of having a synergistic effect between metal ions and active chemical constituents of plant extracts.
Tool-Supported Specification of a Wind Turbine (2017)

Requirements management systems are a key technology to raise the efficiency of a design process. This paper presents the current opportunities of the tool SpecScribe in different physical domains to assist the development of a wind turbine health monitoring system. SpecScribe not only offers document organization but also direct design support by code generation and formal verification issues. This includes digital and analog problems which are transformed to FSMand hybrid automata. From these automata a SystemC-AMS model can be generated automatically. Furthermore a VHDL-AMS model is included in the specification as “golden model”.
Where Am I? SLAM for Mobile Machines on a Smart Working Site (2022)

The current optimization approaches of construction machinery are mainly based on internal sensors. However, the decision of a reasonable strategy is not only determined by its intrinsic signals, but also very strongly by environmental information, especially the terrain. Due to the dynamic changing of the construction site and the consequent absence of a high definition map, the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) offering the terrain information for construction machines is still challenging. Current SLAM technologies proposed for mobile machines are strongly dependent on costly or computationally expensive sensors, such as RTK GPS and cameras, so that commercial use is rare. In this study, we proposed an affordable SLAM method to create a multi-layer grid map for the construction site so that the machine can have the environmental information and be optimized accordingly. Concretely, after the machine passes by the grid, we can obtain the local information and record it. Combining with positioning technology, we then create a map of the interesting places of the construction site. As a result of our research gathered from Gazebo, we showed that a suitable layout is the combination of one IMU and two differential GPS antennas using the unscented Kalman filter, which keeps the average distance error lower than 2m and the mapping error lower than 1.3% in the harsh environment. As an outlook, our SLAM technology provides the cornerstone to activate many efficiency improvement approaches.
CASP15 cryoEM protein and RNA targets: refinement and analysis using experimental maps (2023)

CASP assessments primarily rely on comparing predicted coordinates with experimental reference structures. However, errors in the reference structures can potentially reduce the accuracy of the assessment. This issue is particularly prominent in cryoEM-determined structures, and therefore, in the assessment of CASP15 cryoEM targets, we directly utilized density maps to evaluate the predictions. A method for ranking the quality of protein chain predictions based on rigid fitting to experimental density was found to correlate well with the CASP assessment scores. Overall, the evaluation against the density map indicated that the models are of high accuracy although local assessment of predicted side chains in a 1.52 Å resolution map showed that side-chains are sometimes poorly positioned. The top 136 predictions associated with 9 protein target reference structures were selected for refinement, in addition to the top 40 predictions for 11 RNA targets. To this end, we have developed an automated hierarchical refinement pipeline in cryoEM maps. For both proteins and RNA, the refinement of CASP15 predictions resulted in structures that are close to the reference target structure, including some regions with better fit to the density. This refinement was successful despite large conformational changes and secondary structure element movements often being required, suggesting that predictions from CASP-assessed methods could serve as a good starting point for building atomic models in cryoEM maps for both proteins and RNA. Loop modeling continued to pose a challenge for predictors with even short loops failing to be accurately modeled or refined at times. The lack of consensus amongst models suggests that modeling holds the potential for identifying more flexible regions within the structure.
Tail-Biting LDPC Convolutional Codes (2007)

In this paper, the tail-biting version of the low-density parity-check convolutional codes (LDPCCCs) is introduced and investigated. The definition of the tail-biting LDPCCCs (TB-LDPCCCs) is given through their parity-check matrices and the basic ideas behind the architectures of the encoders and decoders for these codes are also presented. In addition, the asymptotical lower bound for the minimum distance of these codes and simulation results are shown.
Effects of Fluorination on Fused Ring Electron Acceptor for Active Layer Morphology, Exciton Dissociation, and Charge Recombination in Organic Solar Cells (2020)

Fluorination is one of the effective approaches to alter the organic semiconductor properties that impact the performance of the organic solar cells (OSCs). Positive effects of fluorination are also revealed in the application of fused ring electron acceptors (FREAs). However, in comparison with the efforts allocated to the material designs and power conversion efficiency enhancement, understanding on the excitons and charge carriers' behaviors in high-performing OSCs containing FREAs is limited. Herein, the impact of fluorine substituents on the active layer morphology, and therefore exciton dissociation, charge separation, and charge carriers' recombination processes are examined by fabricating OSCs with PTO2 as the donor and two FREAs, O-IDTT-IC and its fluorinated analogue O-IDTT-4FIC, as the acceptors. With the presence of O-IDTT-4FIC in the devices, it is found that the excitons dissociate more efficiently, and the activation energy required to split the excitons to free charge carriers is much lower; the charge carriers live longer and suffer less extent of trap-assisted recombination; the trap density is 1 order of magnitude lower than that of the nonfluorinated counterpart. Overall, these findings provide information about the complex impacts of FREA fluorination on efficiently performed OSCs.
A Wearable Mobile Sensor Platform to Assist Fruit Grading (2013)

Wearable computing is a form of ubiquitous computing that offers flexible and useful tools for users. Specifically, glove-based systems have been used in the last 30 years in a variety of applications, but mostly focusing on sensing people's attributes, such as finger bending and heart rate. In contrast, we propose in this work a novel flexible and reconfigurable instrumentation platform in the form of a glove, which can be used to analyze and measure attributes of fruits by just pointing or touching them with the proposed glove. An architecture for such a platform is designed and its application for intuitive fruit grading is also presented, including experimental results for several fruits.
Development and application of a nanocomposite derived from crosslinked HPMC and Au nanoparticles for colon targeted drug delivery (2015)

Remarkably Suppressed Luminescence Inhomogeneity in a (0001) InGaN Green Laser Structure (2013)

The optical properties of InGaN-based green laser structures fabricated on (0001) GaN substrates are investigated using photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Both macroscopic and microscopic measurements demonstrate that the potential fluctuations are drastically suppressed in state-of-the-art (0001) green InGaN laser structures. Time-resolved PL suggests that InGaN quantum wells (QWs) become thinner than conventional QWs, which is compensated for by higher In compositions. Such QWs increase the radiative recombination probability due to a greater overlap between the electron and hole wavefunctions. The suppressed luminescence inhomogeneity and increased radiative recombination probability may be responsible for the recent remarkable reduction in the lasing threshold.
Electric Motor Mounting System Validation with Subsystem and Powered e-Axle Tests (2023)

&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;As more and more electric vehicles on dedicated platforms are being developed and launched, motor mounting systems evolve to focus on the specific requirements of the electric drive units (EDUs) – especially the partially opposing targets of controlling powertrain motion under torque and enhancing high frequency isolation. The initial layout of the EDU mounting system, such as the number, position and orientation of the motor mounts as well as their linear and non-linear stiffness properties, during the quotation phase as well as its continuous optimization after business nomination are the foundation for an optimal NVH performance. To support early-stage model validation, Vibracoustic analyzes the modal properties of the EDU or the EDU / subframe assembly to ground. For more comprehensive investigations, Vibracoustic has devised unique axle test rigs to analyze and optimize the NVH of entire axles without the surrounding vehicle. Load cells at all interface points, acceleration sensors and other signal sources permit a comprehensive NVH characterization of an axle. Upgrading the axle test rig with a battery simulator, external liquid cooling and an automation system has enabled the NVH investigation of electric axles under their own power – an industry first. A recently added optical kinematic measurement system now allows the tracking of all 6 DOF motions of any axle and driveline component, e.g. under EDU torque or due to wheel excitations. In this paper, we will share a first correlation study of measurements with multi-body simulations for both test approaches – the simplified experimental modal analysis and the optical kinematic measurement of a full powered e-axle test on a chassis dyno.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Study on IP Telecom Network Technologies (2003)

The IP telecom network has some problems with its key technologies, but it is capable of integrating all the existing telecom services, and guarantees the same security and QoS requirements as the traditional PSTN, for which no more complexity is needed. The key problems with IP telecom networks are not insurmountable. Some of them have already been solved and an overall settlement will be facilitated in the near future.
Candidal Meningitis in Children with Cancer (2000)

Candidal meningitis is a rare disease that is seen most frequently in neonates, neurosurgical patients, and the immunocompromised host. We describe a series of 12 children with cancer (all of whom had leukemia) who had candidal meningitis develop. Univariate analysis revealed that duration of fever, antibiotic therapy, and profound neutropenia and use of total parenteral nutrition were significantly associated (P<.05) with candidal meningitis in children with cancer, compared with matched control subjects. Only duration of profound neutropenia (P=.08) and use of total parenteral nutrition (P=.06) approached significance in the multivariate analysis. One species of Candida, Candida tropicalis, was responsible for 11 of the 12 cases, indicating increased pathogenicity of this organism in CNS disease. The cases were invariably fatal, supporting aggressive treatment of candidal meningitis in immunocompromised patients and further study of the prevention, diagnosis, and management of C. tropicalis meningitis.
