Effect of calcination temperature and Ti substitution on optical properties of (Fe,Cr)2O3 cool black pigment prepared by spray pyrolysis (2021)

Near-infrared (NIR) reflective Fe<sub>1.5</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub>O<sub>3</sub> black pigments were synthesized by spray pyrolysis, and the effect of calcination temperature and Ti substitution on the optical properties were investigated. As the calcination temperature increased from 500 °C to 800 °C, the prepared Fe<sub>1.5</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub>O<sub>3</sub> powder had α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> phase without any impurities and the NIR reflectance steadily increased. On the otherhand, the smallest chroma value was observed at 700 °C. Therefore, in terms of achieving high NIR reflectance with keeping good blackness, the optimal calcination temperature was determined to be 700 °C. Substitution of Ti corresponding to 5-15% of the total metal ions in Fe<sub>1.5</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub>O<sub>3</sub> largely affected the NIR reflectance and chroma value, but there was no significant change in the optical band gap. Ti substitution of 5 mol% could further improve the NIR reflectance of the Fe<sub>1.5</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub> black pigment without significant loss of blackness, but above 10% or higher the NIR reflectance largely decreased due to the loss of crystallinity. Resultantly, Fe<sub>1.4</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub>Ti<sub>0.1</sub>O<sub>3+<i>δ</i></sub> (5% Ti substituted black pigment) was confirmed to have improved heat-shielding performance compared to Fe<sub>1.5</sub>Cr<sub>0.5</sub>O<sub>3</sub> in a temperature rise test under near-infrared illumination.
Scale-Invariant Convolutional Neural Networks (2014)

Even though convolutional neural networks (CNN) has achieved near-human performance in various computer vision tasks, its ability to tolerate scale variations is limited. The popular practise is making the model bigger first, and then train it with data augmentation using extensive scale-jittering. In this paper, we propose a scaleinvariant convolutional neural network (SiCNN), a modeldesigned to incorporate multi-scale feature exaction and classification into the network structure. SiCNN uses a multi-column architecture, with each column focusing on a particular scale. Unlike previous multi-column strategies, these columns share the same set of filter parameters by a scale transformation among them. This design deals with scale variation without blowing up the model size. Experimental results show that SiCNN detects features at various scales, and the classification result exhibits strong robustness against object scale variations.
Long-Term Corrosion Behavior of Strong and Ductile High Mn-Low Cr Steel in Acidic Aqueous Environments (2022)

To expand the industrial applicability of strong and ductile high Mn-Low Cr steel, a deeper understanding and mechanistic interpretation of long-term corrosion behavior under harsher environmental conditions are needed. From this perspective, the long-term corrosion behaviors of 24Mn3Cr steel under acidic aqueous conditions were examined through a comparison with conventional ferritic steels using the electrochemical measurements (linear polarization resistance and impedance), and immersion test followed by the metallographic observation of corrosion morphologies. In contrast to conventional ferritic steels, 24Mn3Cr steel, which had the lowest corrosion resistance at the early immersion stages (i.e., the highest corrosion current density (<i>i<sub>corr</sub></i>) and lowest polarization resistance (<i>R<sub>p</sub></i>)), showed a gradual increase in corrosion resistance with prolonged immersion. Owing to the slow formation kinetics of (Fe,Cr)-enriched oxide scale, a longer incubation time for ensuring a comparatively higher corrosion resistance is required. On the other hand, conventional ferritic steels had an oxide scale with less densification and a lower elemental enrichment level that did not provide an effective anti-corrosion function. From the results, this study can provide significant insight into the industrial applicability of the high Mn-low Cr steel by providing the mechanistic interpretation of corrosion behaviors in acidic aqueous environments.
Thalidomide Analogs from Diamines: Synthesis and Evaluation as Inhibitors of TNF-.ALPHA. Production (2007)

Fourteen thalidomide analogs bearing two phthalimido units were prepared in high yields (83-94%) by condensation of different diamines with phthalic or 3-nitrophthalic anhydride. An in vitro investigation of the compounds as inhibitors of the TNF-alpha production was performed. The inhibition was higher for compounds bearing amino and nitro groups and was modulated by increasing the size of the spacers between the phthalimide groups.
Human Resource Diversity Management – A Conceptual Analysis: (2021)

The twenty first century has led to borderless interactions, which in turn has opened a vast variety of opportunities leading to workforce diversity. Human Resource Diversity Management is considered among the most imperative tools of human resource. Humans differ in multiple aspects but in order to maintain and excel in global diversity, we must understand and comprehend these differences so that they strengthen the company's goals as well as perceived objectives. This research was carried out to conceptualize and analyze the three variables, which are, Human Resource Diversity Management, International Compensations as well as Ethics and Social Responsibility which impact the workforce in an organization leading to its growth or downfall. Conceptual analysis shows that HR Diversity is the need of the hour for organizations and in order to get more value in the market, the organizations have to en-cash this strength through multiple methods.

Bursting Strength of Thick-Walled Tubes of 15-15N under Internal Pressure at Elevated Temperatures (1973)

In this report shown are the test results of short-time bursting of thick-walled tubes of a heat-resisting alloy, 15-15N, subjected to internal pressure at high temperatures up to 700°C. The diameter ratio of the test tubes are from 1.75 to 7. The experimental bursting pressures are compared with the estimated pressures by several well-known design formulae. The appearances of burst tubes are also examined. The results obtained are as follows:(1) Among the formulae proposed for room temperature, the formulae by Manning and by MacGregor et al. are not quite applicable to the high temperature range in spite of tedious calculations.(2) The experimental values yields a linear relationship in the ultimate pressure-ln (diameter ratio) plots, and Faupel's formula gives a good agreement with the experimental results.(3) The crack initiates at the inside tube wall and propagates toward the outer part to cause bursting of tube. The appearance of burst surface at the cross-section indicates cleavage or shear fracture for the tubes of small diameter ratio. For the tubes of larger diameter ratio the cleavage fracture produced at the inside surface transforms into the shear type which propagates along the outward logarithmic spiral direction from the top of a large cleavage crack.

All inorganic and most organic Br compounds were successfully removed and converted to inorganic NH4Br powder, which allows easy bromine recovery. The liquid degradation products are rich in benzene derivatives and can be used as feedstock or fuel.
Chronic eosinophilic leukemia or hypereosinophilic syndrome- case report (2007)

Konicna eozinofilna leukemija (KEL) je mijeloproliferativna bolest kod koje klonalna proliferacija eozinofilnih prekursora rezultira u perzistentnom porastu broja eozinofila u perifemoj krvi, kostanoj srži i organima. U KEL broj eozinofila ≥ 1, 5 x 109, a za postavljanje dijagnoze treba postojati dokaz klonalnosti eozinofila ili porast blasta u kostanoj srzi ili perifemoj krvi. Idiopatski hipereozinofilni sindrom (HES) je definiran kao perzistentna eozinofilija (≥ 1, 5 x 109) za koju se ne može naci uzrok, a povezana je sa znacima zahvacenosti organa i njihove disfunkcije. Ne postoji dokaz za klonalnost eozinofila. To je dijagnoza iskljucivanja. U nasem slucaju radi se o 53 godine staroj, do pojave prvih simptoma zdravoj pacijentici. Zbog bolova u desnom abdomenu i klinicke slike akutnog apendicitisa izvrsen je operativni zahvat, ucinjenaje hemikolektomija, dominantna histoloska slika bio je granulomatozni vaskulitis s eozinofilijom. U leukogramu nađeno je 73% eozinofila, u kostanoj srži granulocitopoeza umnožena s predominacijom eozinofilnih granulocita. Lijecenje je provedeno kortikostereoidima. Na kontrolnoj obradi nade se sarno 5% eozinofila u leukogramu i 12% u kostanoj srži. Od dodatno ucinjenih pretraga dobili smo uredan citogenetski nalaz, bez t(9 ; 22) i BCR/ ABL fuzijskog gena. Takoder smo radili Naftol ASD kloracetat esterazu i FIP1L1-PDGFRA fuzijski gen. Klonalnost nije dokazana. S obzirom na klinicku sliku, nalaze drugih pretraga te dobrog terapijskog odgovora misljenja smo da se radi o idiopatskom hipereozinofilnom sindromu.

Minimal paths and probabilistic models for origin-destination traffic estimation in live cell imaging (2010)

Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP)-tagging and time-lapse fluorescence microscopy enable to observe molecular dynamics and interactions in live cells. Original image analysis methods are then required to process challenging 2D or 3D image sequences. To address the tracking problem of several hundreds of objects, we propose an original framework that provides general information about vesicle transport, that is traffic flows between origin and destination regions detected in the image sequence. Traffic estimation can be accomplished by adapting the advances in Network Tomography commonly used in network communications. In this paper, we address image partition given vesicle stocking areas and multipaths routing for vesicle transport. This approach has been developed for real fluorescence image sequences and Rab proteins. Index Terms — Traffic control (transportation), microscopy, fluorescence, proteins, video, routing, tracking.
A Low-Cost Patch Antenna Phased Array With Analog Beam Steering Using Mutual Coupling and Reactive Loading (2008)

In this letter, a low-cost patch antenna phased array is demonstrated with analog beam steering without using phase shifters. This novel technique can greatly reduce the cost of a phased-array system and will enable the wide-scale deployment of phased arrays in low-end commercial products. In the presented three-element phased array, the center (driven) antenna is fed by an RF source and the two neighboring (passive) antennas are excited through the mutual coupling from the center antenna. The phase shifts between the antenna elements are achieved by changing the reactance of the capacitors loading the two passive antennas. A phased array using this novel technique is designed, fabricated, and measured at 3 GHz with a bandwidth of 1.8%. This phased array is shown to be able to steer the antenna beam from 20 to 20 degrees in an analog fashion. The measured radiation patterns of this phased array closely match the theoretical calculation and full-wave simulation results.
Performance of Fluorescent Cell-Labeling Dyes under Simulated Europa Mission Radiation Doses (2018)

We investigated the performance of several commonly used fluorescent dyes after exposure to a simulated Europa mission total ionizing radiation dose of 300 krad (3 kGy) applied using a <sup>60</sup>Co source. Dyes irradiated in aqueous solution or as lyophilized powders were evaluated for absorbance and emission spectra, quantum yield, and where appropriate, ability to label cells or nucleic acids. Although some dyes showed significant increase or decrease in quantum yield with the dose, their spectra and cell-labeling properties remained essentially unchanged after irradiation in powder form. Irradiation in aqueous solution led to significantly greater changes, including a large blue shift in the DNA intercalator propidium iodide. These results suggest that many fluorescent probes are appropriate for use in astrobiological missions to Europa, but that SYTO9 and propidium iodide should be used with caution or not mixed with each other, as is commonly done in "Live/Dead" labeling applications.
Blind Cooperative Routing for Scalable and Energy-Efficient Internet of Things (2015)

Multihop networking is promoted in this paper for energy-efficient and highly-scalable Internet of Things (IoT). Recognizing concerns related to the scalability of classical multihop routing and medium access techniques, the use of blind cooperation in conjunction with multihop communications is advocated herewith. Blind cooperation however is actually shown to be inefficient unless power control is applied. Inefficiency in this paper is projected in terms of the transport rate normalized to energy consumption. To that end, an uncoordinated power control mechanism is proposed whereby each device in a blind cooperative cluster randomly adjusts its transmit power level. An upper bound is derived for the mean transmit power that must be observed at each device. Finally, the uncoordinated power control mechanism is demonstrated to consistently outperform the simple point-to-point routing case.
1μm Pitch direct hybrid bonding with <300nm wafer-to-wafer overlay accuracy (2017)

Copper/oxide hybrid bonding process has been extensively studied these past years as a key enabler for 3D high density application with top and bottom tier interconnection pitch below 10μm. Since 2015 hybrid bonding process robustness has been confirmed on complete electrical test vehicles [1,2] as well as commercial products [3] integrating copper to copper interconnection pitchs close to 6μm. To our knowledge, no results have been shown today demonstrating sub-1.5μm pitch copper hybrid bonding feasibility.
Dual-driver standing wave tube: acoustic impedance matching with robust repetitive control (2002)

In many applications of acoustic standing wave tubes, for instance thermoacoustic heat pumping systems, it is desirable to make a shorter tube operate like a longer standing wave tube at the same driving frequency. The basic idea here is to reduce the physical length of the tube, and replace the removed section with a secondary driver. The problem is then to match the acoustic impedance at the boundary where the secondary driver is installed to that of the original system. A two-input-two-output (TITO) formulation directly tracks the two acoustic variables related to the impedance, while a SISO formulation minimizes the impedance matching error. The desired impedance containing a very lightly damped mode is embedded in the augmented plant for feedback control design. In addition to the balance realization method, the Schur method was used in model reduction for the high-order non-minimum phase plants. Since the standing wave tubes are driven by tonal signals, repetitive control was incorporated into the control frameworks to achieve the desired performance. Good impedance matching performance was obtained for both formulations. The formulations are compared.
Reliability Map Estimation For CNN-Based Camera Model Attribution (2018)

Among the image forensic issues investigated in the last few years, great attention has been devoted to blind camera model attribution. This refers to the problem of detecting which camera model has been used to acquire an image by only exploiting pixel information. Solving this problem has great impact on image integrity assessment as well as on authenticity verification. Recent advancements that use convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in the media forensic field have enabled camera model attribution methods to work well even on small image patches. These improvements are also important for determining forgery localization. Some patches of an image may not contain enough information related to the camera model (e.g., saturated patches). In this paper, we propose a CNN-based solution to estimate the camera model attribution reliability of a given image patch. We show that we can estimate a reliability-map indicating which portions of the image contain reliable camera traces. Testing using a well known dataset confirms that by using this information, it is possible to increase small patch camera model attribution accuracy by more than 8% on a single patch.

Antisense Gets a Grip on miR-122 in Chimpanzees (2010)

Innovations in antisense drug design have enhanced potency and selectivity, as demonstrated in a recent study by Lanford and colleagues, who treated hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected chimpanzees with SPC3649. This compound is a second-generation antisense RNA molecule that is complementary to the microRNA miR-122, a major regulatory RNA in liver that fine-tunes the expression of over 100 cellular genes and enhances HCV replication. Serum concentrations of cholesterol and HCV RNA were reduced in chimpanzees treated with 12 weekly intravenous infusions of SPC3649, and no major side effects were noted, paving the way for clinical trials of SPC3649 and other antisense drugs directed against microRNAs. Potential therapeutic uses of SPC3649 include the treatment of HCV infection and liver cancer.

Biomaterials that Regulate Growth Factor Activity via Bioinspired Interactions (2011)

Growth factor activity is localized within the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) by specific non-covalent interactions with core ECM biomolecules, such as proteins and proteoglycans. Recently, these interactions have inspired us and others to develop synthetic biomaterials that can non-covalently regulate growth factor activity for tissue engineering applications. For example, biomaterials covalently or non-covalently modified with heparin glycosaminoglycans can augment growth factor release strategies. In addition, recent studies demonstrate that biomaterials modified with heparin-binding peptides can sequester cell-secreted heparin proteoglycans and, in turn, sequester growth factors and regulate stem cell behavior. Another set of studies show that modular versions of growth factor molecules can be designed to interact with specific components of natural and synthetic ECMs, including collagen and hydroxyapatite. In addition, layer-by-layer assemblies of GAGs and other natural polyelectrolytes retain growth factors at a cell-material interface via specific non-covalent interactions. This review will detail the various bioinspired strategies being used to non-covalently localize growth factor activity within biomaterials, and will highlight in vivo examples of the efficacy of these materials to promote tissue regeneration.
