Strategies for life in flow:tenacity, morphometry, and probability of dislodgment of two Mytilus species (1997)

The attachment strength of sessile intertidal organisms is continuously challenged by the hydrodynamic forces generated by breaking waves This study explores mechanisn~s by whlch the attachment strength, or tenacity, can vary for one of the dominant competitors for space In t h ~s environment, the manne mussel Tenaclty was measuled for 2 CO-ex~sting mussel species, Mytllus cahfornlanus and A4ytllus trossulus, elther solitary or wlthln a bed (= bed mussels) The tenacity of A4 cahfornlanus was h ~g h e r than A4 trossulus, due to increased byssal thread thickness, and the tenacity of solltary mussels was higher than bed mussels, due to the presence of more byssal threads per mussel These tenacity measurements were coupled \ n t h modeled hydrodynamic forces to p r e d ~c t the prob-ab~lity of dislodgment due to xvave action For a glven water velocity, the predicted probability of dislodgment of M callfolnlanus was lower than that of M trossulus because the latter produces relatively thinner threads ( r e d u c ~n g tenacity) and a relatively more volum~nous shell (lncreaslng hydrodynalnic loadlng) Compared to solitary mussels, bed mussels had a lower probability of dislodgment for a given water velocity (despite the11 lower tenacity) because the\! are subjected to relatively s m a l l e ~ hydrodynamic forces These predictions are consistent w ~t h f ~e l d observations that mussels typ~cally form dense aggregations and that M trossulus rarely ~n h a b i t s highly wave-exposed shores

Control of spontaneous emission of HITC dye with non-local metal-dielectric environments (Conference Presentation) (2018)

We have studied the effects of metallic substrates, lamellar metal-dielectric stacks and Fabry-Perot cavities on spontaneous emission and concentration quenching of luminescence of the HITC laser dye. Among the most intriguing results of this research are: (1) The long-range (~50 nm) inhibition of the concentration quenching (Förster energy transfer to quenching centers) by metallic and lamellar metal-dielectric substrates and (2) Enhancement of the spontaneous emission quantum yield with reduction of the cavity size below 100 nm.
Dual targeting of transformed and untransformed HTLV-1-infected T cells by DHMEQ, a potent and selective inhibitor of NF- B, as a strategy for chemoprevention and therapy of adult T-cell leukemia (2005)

Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1) causes adult T-cell leukemia (ATL), a fatal T-cell leukemia resistant to chemotherapy, after more than 50 years of clinical latency from transmission through breast-feeding. Polyclonal expansion of virus-infected T cells predisposes them to transformation. Constitutive activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) in the leukemic cells is essential for their growth and survival. Blocking NF-kappaB has been shown to be a potential strategy to treat ATL. We tested this approach using a novel NF-kappaB inhibitor, dehydroxymethylepoxyquinomicin (DHMEQ), and also examined its application to chemoprevention by selective purging of the HTLV-1-infected cells. DHMEQ inhibited NF-kappaB activation in primary ATL cells and cell lines derived from them and induced apoptotic cell death. NF-kappaB inhibition down-regulated expression of genes involved in antiapoptosis or cell-cycle progression. DHMEQ protected severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice inoculated with HTLV-1-transformed cells from death. In addition, DHMEQ selectively targeted HTLV-1-infected cells in the peripheral blood of virus carriers in vitro, resulting in a decreased number of infected cells. We conclude that NF-kappaB is a potential molecular target for treatment and prevention of ATL. As a potent NF-kappaB inhibitor, DHMEQ is a promising compound allowing the translation of this strategy into clinical medicine.

External self-representations improve self-awareness in a child with autism (2014)

We have previously suggested that the social symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) could be caused in part by a dysfunctional mirror neuron system (MNS). Since the recursive activity of a functioning MNS might enable the brain to integrate visual and motor sensations into a coherent body schema, the deficits in self-awareness often seen in ASD might be caused by the same mirror neuron dysfunction. CL is an autistic adolescent who is profoundly fascinated with his reflection, looking in mirrors at every opportunity. We demonstrate that CL's abnormal gait improves significantly when using a mirror for visual feedback. We also show that both the fascination and the happiness that CL derives from looking at a computer-generated reflection diminish when a delay is introduced between the camera input and screen output. We believe that immediate, real-time visual feedback allows CL to integrate motor sensations with external visual ones into a coherent body schema that he cannot internally generate, perhaps due to a dysfunctional MNS.
Decreased TFF2 expression in the gastric antrum in patients infected with CagA-positive Helicobacter pylori. (2009)

These results suggest that H. pylori-associated CAG has a deleterious effect on the expression of TFF2 in the gastric antrum. This reduced expression may contribute to the damage induced to the gastric mucosa by H. pylori.

Reproducible Bioinformatics Project: A community for reproducible bioinformatics analysis pipelines (2017)

Abstract Background Reproducibility of a research is a key element in the modern science and it is mandatory for any industrial application. It represents the ability of replicating an experiment independently by the location and the operator. Therefore, a study can be considered reproducible only if all used data are available and the exploited computational analysis workflow is clearly described. However, today for reproducing a complex bioinformatics analysis, the raw data and a list of tools used in the workflow could be not enough to guarantee the reproducibility of the results obtained. Indeed, different releases of the same tools and/or of the system libraries (exploited by such tools) might lead to sneaky reproducibility issues. Results To address this challenge, we established the Reproducible Bioinformatics Project (RBP) , which is a non-profit and open-source project, whose aim is to provide a schema and an infrastructure, based on docker images and R package, to provide reproducible results in Bioinformatics. One or more Docker images are then defined for a workflow (typically one for each task), while the workflow implementation is handled via R-functions embedded in a package available at github repository. Thus, a bioinformatician participating to the project has firstly to integrate her/his workflow modules into Docker image(s) exploiting an Ubuntu docker image developed ad hoc by RPB to make easier this task. Secondly, the workflow implementation must be realized in R according to an R-skeleton function made available by RPB to guarantee homogeneity and reusability among different RPB functions. Moreover she/he has to provide the R vignette explaining the package functionality together with an example dataset which can be used to improve the user confidence in the workflow utilization. Conclusions Reproducible Bioinformatics Project provides a general schema and an infrastructure to distribute robust and reproducible workflows. Thus, it guarantees to final users the ability to repeat consistently any analysis independently by the used UNIX-like architecture.
Kinetics of the Primary Reaction of HF on Alumino-Silicates (2000)

Summary The standard description of HF acidizing chemistry clearly demonstrates a primary and secondary reaction of HF with alumino-silicates.1–6 Field experience has taught our industry that possible precipitation during the secondary reaction can adversely affect treatment success,7,8 especially in formations with high K-feldspar content9 or temperatures above 300°F. Recent work has also been reported on the existence of a third, or tertiary reaction of HF with alumino-silicates.10 In this paper determination of the rate law and kinetics for the primary reaction of HF on sand, clay, and feldspar over a broad temperature range is reported. The rate law for the primary reaction of HF with sand had no HCl dependence and was second order in HF concentration. The rate law for the primary reaction of HF with clay and feldspar was assumed to also have no HCl dependence and was adequately described by a first order in HF concentration. In addition, a mass transfer equation for reactive fluids flowing through porous sandstone media is proposed. These findings were made possible by recently applied experimental techniques including 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy,10 fractional pore-volume flow experiments,11 and an accurate knowledge of the HF stoichiometry.12 Laboratory findings have been verified through detailed analyses of flowback samples from field treatments.13
Tracking the Catalytic Cycle of Adenylate Kinase by Ultraviolet Photodissociation Mass Spectrometry (2017)

The complex interplay of dynamic protein plasticity and specific side-chain interactions with substrate molecules that allows enzymes to catalyze reactions has yet to be fully unraveled. Top-down ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) mass spectrometry is used to track snapshots of conformational fluctuations in the phosphotransferase adenylate kinase (AK) throughout its active reaction cycle by characterization of complexes containing AK and each of four different adenosine phosphate ligands. Variations in efficiencies of UVPD backbone cleavages were consistently observed for three α-helices and the adenosine binding regions for AK complexes representing different steps of the catalytic cycle, implying that these stretches of the protein sample various structural microstates as the enzyme undergoes global open-to-closed transitions. Focusing on the conformational impact of recruiting or releasing the Mg<sup>2+</sup> cofactor highlights two loop regions for which fragmentation increases upon UVPD, signaling an increase in loop flexibility as the metal cation disrupts the loop interactions with the substrate ligands. Additionally, the observation of holo ions and variations in UVPD backbone cleavage efficiency at R138 implicate this conserved active site residue in stabilizing the donor phosphoryl group during catalysis. This study showcases the utility of UVPD-MS to provide insight into conformational fluctuations of single residues for active enzymes.
Non-Destructive Techniques for Bridge Inspection in United Arab Emirates (2013)

&lt;p&gt;This paper presents an investigation of the combined defect detectability of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Infrared Thermography (IRT) in concrete bridges taking into considerations variations in concrete mix proportioning. This variation will exist due to the difference in mix ingredients, aggregate gradations, w/c ratio, and aggregate type. Therefore, four concrete mixes; high strength, normal strength, lightweight and self-consolidated concrete are used in the investigation. The goal is to evaluate the effect of concrete mix variation on the signals and images of the GPR and IRT techniques. Sixteen 1.2m x 1.2m x0.2m slabs with common bridge defects, cracks, voids, delaminations, honeycombing, and corrosion were prepared. Parameters included in the investigation are concrete type, defects type, size, and location. Furthermore, effects of the environmental conditions on the images, such as temperature changes, solar radiation at different times of the day, and will also be assessed. Results and findings will be discussed and presented.&lt;/p&gt;
gJFactor of the LowestP11andP13States of Ba; Level-Crossing Determination ofA(P11)μ0gJ(P11)ofHg199 (1968)

The ${g}_{J}(^{3}P_{1})$ and ${g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1})$ factors of the ($6s6p$) configuration in barium have been determined in a double-resonance experiment. The ratio $\frac{A(^{1}P_{1})}{[{\ensuremath{\mu}}_{0}{g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1})]}$ of the ($6s6p$) configuration in ${\mathrm{Hg}}^{199}$ has been measured in a level-crossing experiment. The results are: ${g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1}, \mathrm{Ba})=1.0039\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.0008$, ${g}_{J}(^{3}P_{1}, \mathrm{Ba})=1.4973\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.0007$, $\ensuremath{-}\frac{hA(^{1}P_{1}, {\mathrm{Hg}}^{199})}{[{\ensuremath{\mu}}_{0}{g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1}, {\mathrm{Hg}}^{199})]}=2523.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}3.0$ G. From the values of $A(^{1}P_{1}, {\mathrm{Hg}}^{199})$ obtained from optical spectroscopy, a value of ${g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1}, \mathrm{Hg})$ is derived: ${g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1}, \mathrm{Hg})=1.0127\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.0050$. We have summarized all lifetime and ${g}_{J}$ values for the first excited $\mathrm{sp}$ configuration of the group-II elements. With these results, a comparison of the three different methods of calculating the intermediate coupling coefficients is presented and all methods are found to be in excellent agreement. Previous level-crossing results for the lifetime and hfs of ${\mathrm{Ba}}^{137}$ have been corrected using the presently determined value of ${g}_{J}(^{1}P_{1})$. These corrected results are in much better agreement with other experiments.
Virtual Engine, Controls, and Calibration Development in Automated Co-Simulation Environment (2016)

&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;Increasingly advanced engines are having high degrees of flux in design, hardware, and requirement changes throughout the development process from initial design intent to production, all occurring at various points in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Boosting, downsizing, various exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) schemes, variable valve timing/lift (VVT/VVL), and direct injection are part of new engine designs. These are being coupled with 6-10 speed transmission or electric motors for increasing overall efficiency while maintaining performance. Development and calibration of the control systems required to extract the best possible performance of these applied technologies is becoming a complex and resource consuming task when time, budget, and test beds become limited. Therefore, an equally rapid means to thoroughly test new engine designs, new algorithms and optimize calibrations is required. A system is presented to demonstrate this process, beginning with a detailed Gamma Technologies (GT) engine plant that has lumped volumes for fast running and validated for accuracy, then coupled to Simulink virtual control units for cosimulation. Through a secondary Simulink interface with Orion, a procedure is set up to determine engine and actuator boundaries, with the resulting data combined with calibration surface information from the virtual control units to determine and execute a final Design of Experiment (DOE) test sequence that will generate proper data for optimizing a calibration. Lastly, using a Matlab Graphical User Interface (GUI), any predefined or user defined steady state or transient test sequence can be executed with engine and vehicle plant feedback for validation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection via Global and Local Joint Modeling of Background (2019)

Anomaly detection is a hot topic in hyperspectral signal processing. The key point of hyperspectral anomaly detection is the modeling of the background. In this paper, we propose a novel anomaly detection method via global and local joint modeling of background. Based on the observation that the local three-dimensional patch belonging to the background in hyperspectral image (HSI) usually lies in a low dimensional manifold, we propose to reconstruct the background part of a HSI from its subsample by scalable low dimensional manifold modeling (SLDMM). Thus, the background of HSI can be well characterized in both global and local aspects. Taking into consideration that the SLDMM reconstructs the background part at a low sampling ratio, we propose a multiple random sampling reconstruction strategy to further improve the detection accuracies and robustness. The final background is generated by the mean of backgrounds reconstructed from the multiple random sampling and the anomalies are contained in the residual between the observed HSI and the mean background. Experimental results on three real datasets demonstrate that the proposed anomaly detection method outperforms other state-of-the-art hyperspectral anomaly detection methods.
Dynamic Traffic Control of Staging Traffic on the Interconnect of the HPC Cluster System (2020)

High-performance computing (HPC) cluster systems sometimes adopt a two-layered file system composed of local and global file systems to achieve both capacity and performance in storage. In such a cluster system, the input data of an application needs to be staged from the global storage into the local storage, and the output data needs to be staged from the local storage out to the global storage. This staging operation must be efficiently and quickly performed to gain higher job throughput because an inefficient staging operation prevents waiting job requests from being executed. In particular, in the case of the cluster system with the oversubscribed interconnect shared by the storage and the computing nodes, the inter-node communication and this staging operation traffic collides, which may degrade the job throughput. In this research, we focus on the traffic collision of the inter-node communication and the staging traffic to improve job throughput, targeting the cluster system with the oversubscribed interconnect where these two types of traffic flow. In other words, whether the dynamic control of the traffic flow derived from the staging operation leads to the improvement in the job throughput or not is investigated. For the investigation, we present a traffic collision avoidance method to dynamically configure a set of data paths for each type of the traffic only while the staging operation is conducted. The evaluation in this article shows that the proposed method avoids a traffic collision and accelerates the staging operation by 22.0% on our cluster system. Also, this evaluation indicates the overhead of the application incurred by the proposed method is negligible. Furthermore, 8.7% of the job execution time is reduced by the proposed method.
A method for &#x201C;design to range&#x201D; energy storage systems in catenary free operations of light railway vehicles (2015)

The paper deals with line-disconnected operations of light railways vehicles using energy storage systems. In particular the suitability of on-board supercapacitors is investigated with reference to trams running along urban paths in catenary-free mode. Several tests on a real urban vehicle are presented in order to enable the evaluation of the losses in the different sections of the on-board power conversion system. These experimental data are used to estimate with good approximation the energy required for autonomous operations. A methodology called design to range is presented for properly sizing the super-capacitors bank needed to overcome different assigned distances with different road slopes.
Proton Doping and Characterization of Rare Earth Nickelates (2018)

Perovskite rare earth nickelates with formula RNiO3 (R = trivalent rare earth element) feature exceptional electrical behavior and performance in a wide variety of functional applications due to their unique metal-insulator transition. This distinctive phase transition is caused by charge disproportionation as the crystal structure distorts upon temperature change and electron-electron interactions result in a modified band structure. However, electron doping of the same nickelate systems has created a more pronounced phase transition wherein unprecedented resistivity changes on the order of 1010 Ω*cm are achieved through the opening of a wide bandgap. In this work, a new method for inducing a water-mediated electrically driven phase transition is examined through the use of various processing methods and investigation of subsequent effects on the structural and material properties. Electrochemically driven doping of protons is caused through potentiostatic bias applications and linear sweep voltammetry, while the effects on the electrical and optic properties are observed and correlated with structural data collected through x-ray and neutron scattering. Finally, the effects of A-site substitution (Sm, Nd, Eu) on the doping process are assessed.
