Local Map Drawing and Path-Planning for Submersible Vehicles (1995)

This paper introduces a system to draw a local map based on range data which are measured by ultrasonic sensors on a submersible vehicle. Topography is represented as the depth values at two-dimensional square cells. Measured depth values and their weights to represent their certainty at each cell are accumulated as the information about the obstacle occupancy and emptiness. The depth of seabed is conjectured with these values, or judged “unknown” when the amount of information is not sufficient.The features of the system are as follows : 1) Topography is conjectured by combining a large number of sensor readings from multiple positions although each reading has uncertainty of the point where the ultrasonic wave is reflected.2) The system offers the amount of information which represents the index of reliability of that depth value.3) The maximum depth for the vehicle to work safely is available when the depth of the seabed has not been conjectured.4) The path-plan is generated to survey the target area, which is more efficient than a prescribed path-plan such as simply tracing the orthogonal lines.Experiments at a testing pool and simulations on workstations demonstrate that the proposed system is significantly advantageous for detailed local mapping by a submersible vehicle.
Exchanges in complex networks: income and wealth distributions (2003)

We investigate the wealth evolution in a system of agents that exchange wealth through a disordered network in presence of an additive stochastic Gaussian noise. We show that the resulting wealth distribution is shaped by the degree distribution of the underlying network and in particular we verify that scale free networks generate distributions with power-law tails in the high-income region. Numerical simulations of wealth exchanges performed on two different kind of networks show the inner relation between the wealth distribution and the network properties and confirm the agreement with a self-consistent solution. We show that empirical data for the income distribution in Australia are qualitatively well described by our theoretical predictions.
Object-oriented configuration control (1989)

In this paper we show how configuration management and version control can be integrated and automated. Our approach is to use an object-oriented paradigm for the environment and to consider dependencies between modules to be a property local to every single version rather than a global property of the whole version group. In our proposed model configuration control depends on the dynamic evolution of the system rather than on a static description.

Novel impedance matching approach employing the band gap region of composite right/left-handed artificial lines (2007)

In this paper we describe a new way to use composite right/left-handed (CRLH) artificial lines for matching purposes. The novelty of this approach is to include the usage of the band gap of the CRLH line as operation region. Including this region extends the classic transmission line transformer theory to the most general case, enabling matching of arbitrary impedances. The basic theory is presented and exemplary applied. A real microstrip line implementation is designed, built and measured as demonstration. The comparison to circuit and full wave EM simulations is done, showing good agreement.
Factores estratégicos de éxito de las empresas de inserción (2007)

Work integration social enterprises are an emerging reality in the Spanish State, and both the number of such enterprises and the resources allocated to this area by the different regional Authorities are increasing exponentially. However, the studies carried out to date are largely descriptive or explanatory, and have hardly touched on aspects relating to the management of these enterprises. In this article we set out to identify the fundamental factors linked to the business success of work integration social enterprises as an evaluation of the efficiency of such projects. The proposed hypothesis links a set of factors taken from the literature, which are considered independent variables, with the dependent variable of success. The hypotheses have been proven by an empirical analysis based on a telephone survey.

An area-efficient 2-D convolution implementation on FPGA for space applications (2011)

The 2-D Convolution is an algorithm widely used in image and video processing. Although its computation is simple, its implementation requires a high computational power and an intensive use of memory. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) architectures were proposed to accelerate calculations of 2-D Convolution and the use of buffers implemented on FPGAs are used to avoid direct memory access. In this paper we present an implementation of the 2-D Convolution algorithm on a FPGA architecture designed to support this operation in space applications. This proposed solution dramatically decreases the area needed keeping good performance, making it appropriate for embedded systems in critical space applications.
Feasibility Study on the Use of Visible and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Together with Chemometrics To Discriminate between Commercial White Wines of Different Varietal Origins (2003)

The use of visible (vis) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) was explored as a tool to discriminate between samples of Australian commercial white wines of different varietal origins (Chardonnay and Riesling). Discriminant models were developed using principal component analysis (PCA), principal component regression (PCR), and discriminant partial least-squares (DPLS) regression. The samples were randomly split into two sets, one used as a calibration set (n = 136) and the remaining samples as a validation set (n = 133). When used to predict the variety of the validation set samples, the DPLS models correctly classified 100% of Riesling and up to 96% of Chardonnay wines. These results showed that vis-NIR might be a suitable and alternative technology that can be easily implemented by the wine industry to discriminate Riesling and Chardonnay commercial wine varieties. However, the relatively limited number of samples and varieties involved in the present work suggests caution in extending the potential of such a technique to other wine varieties.

Evaluation of Streptozyme and Antistreptolysin O Tests in Streptococcal Pyodermal Nephritis (1973)

The evaluation of the streptozyme test in sera from 34 patients with streptococcal pyodermal nephritis was studied. Ninety-seven percent of the patients developed high titers of antistreptozyme antibodies on the first bleeding after hospitalization, in contrast to only 40% of patients who developed elevated antistreptolysin O titers. The high antistreptozyme titers declined during convalescence and reached normal levels in the sixth month after onset of the disease. The most significant fall in titers occurred between 1 and 2 months from the onset of disease. The streptozyme test may be particularly helpful as a rapid screening test for antibodies in streptococcal pyodermal nephritis.

Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound in hepatosplenic schistosomiasis mansoni (2004)

We report the findings of abdominal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging observed in a patient with advanced schistosomiasis mansoni. A 25-year-old man with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis and variceal bleeding confirmed by upper endoscopy was submitted to abdominal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. During surgery for portal hypertension, a liver biopsy was taken and the diagnosis of Symmers' fibrosis was confirmed. magnetic resonance imaging scans gave more precise information about the gallbladder, periportal thickening and abdominal venous system than did the ultrasound.
Dependence of crystal symmetry, electrical conduction property and electronic structure of LnFeO<sub>3</sub> (Ln: La, Pr, Nd, Sm) on kinds of Ln<sup>3+</sup> (2015)

Dependence of crystal symmetry, electrical conductivity, chemical state of Fe and optical property of LnFeO3 (Ln: La, Pr, Nd, Sm) on kinds of Ln3+ was investigated. All the LnFeO3 showed orthorhombic structure, with which order of high crystal symmetry was LaFeO3 > PrFeO3 > NdFeO3 > SmFeO3. Using tolerance factor, the order was successfully explained. The electrical conductivity of all the specimens could be explained by using small polaron hopping model. With increasing crystallite symmetry, electrical conductivity increased and activation energy for hopping conduction decreased. This can be ascribed to larger overlapping of Fe3d orbital and O2p orbital on nearly linear Fe–O–Fe bond in LnFeO3 with higher crystal symmetry. The larger overlapping of Fe3d orbital and O2p orbital in LnFeO3 with higher crystal symmetry can also be an origin of larger spin–spin interaction detected by Mössbauer spectroscopy and larger optical band gap observed by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Since chemical state of Fe, evaluated by Mössbauer spectroscopy, in LnFeO3 is fundamentally constant at +3 regardless of kinds of Ln3+, carrier concentration of LnFeO3 was revealed to be constant. It is concluded that the predominant factor which determine the electrical property of LnFeO3 is mobility affected by crystal symmetry.

Trials, Tribulations, and Some Success in Developing Modeling Tools for the Electrochemical Industry (2016)

The fundamentals of computational modeling of current distribution in electrochemical cells have been known and practiced in academic settings since the early 50’s. However, unlike conventional chemical facilities, electrochemical cells were still being designed empirically in the 80’s and 90’s, and to significant extent, empiricism prevails in the electrochemical industry even today. The underlying reasons for this slow penetration of modeling applications are discussed. The advent of personal computers in the early 80’s presented an opportunity to provide wide access to quantitative modeling throughout the electrochemical industry. The considerations that guided the design of the first commercial CAD software package of electrochemical cells, “Cell-Design”, and its commercialization strategy are presented, including the roles of industry and government in this endeavor. By the late 80’s and throughout the 90’s additional software packages, with different features and marketing strategies became available. The relatively recent introduction of an electrochemical module to Comsol, presented yet another stage in modeling capabilities of electrochemical cells that became accessible to the industry. The different features and marketing strategies of the different modeling packages are described. A major barrier to wide-spread penetration of quantitative modeling within the electrochemical industry has been the lack of property data, particularly as related to many different plating solutions with proprietary additives. To overcome this limitation, that affects mostly the small plating companies with limited access to electroanalytical tools and expertise, the “L-Cell”, a device for fast determination of kinetics parameters, has been introduced. The capabilities, advantages, and limitations of this instrument, in comparison to other tools, ranging from automated and specialized devices to the aging and simplistic, but still widely used, “hull-Cell”, are discussed. Challenges facing the electrochemical industry and opportunities that will enable it to meet future technological needs, including, but not limited to modeling capabilities, are critically discussed. Tasks that can be best carried out in academic institutions and others that are more effectively accomplished in industry and the interactions between the two, based on the author’s experience, are presented.

L-Sox5 and Sox6 Drive Expression of the Aggrecan Gene in Cartilage by Securing Binding of Sox9 to a Far-Upstream Enhancer (2008)

The Sry-related high-mobility-group box transcription factor Sox9 recruits the redundant L-Sox5 and Sox6 proteins to effect chondrogenesis, but the mode of action of the trio remains unclear. We identify here a highly conserved 359-bp sequence 10 kb upstream of the Agc1 gene for aggrecan, a most essential cartilage proteoglycan and key marker of chondrocyte differentiation. This sequence directs expression of a minimal promoter in both embryonic and adult cartilage in transgenic mice, in a manner that matches Agc1 expression. The chondrogenic trio is required and sufficient to mediate the activity of this enhancer. It acts directly, Sox9 binding to a critical cis-acting element and L-Sox5/Sox6 binding to three additional elements, which are cooperatively needed. Upon binding to their specific sites, L-Sox5/Sox6 increases the efficiency of Sox9 binding to its own recognition site and thereby robustly potentiates the ability of Sox9 to activate the enhancer. L-Sox5/Sox6 similarly secures Sox9 binding to Col2a1 (encoding collagen-2) and other cartilage-specific enhancers. This study thus uncovers critical cis-acting elements and transcription factors driving Agc1 expression in cartilage and increases understanding of the mode of action of the chondrogenic Sox trio.
Design of the Interactive Sharing Transfer Protocol (2002)

The Interactive Sharing Transfer Protocol (ISTP) supports the sharing of information about a virtual world among a group of processes. The key advantages of ISTP are that it supports: near real-time interaction among users; the communication of every kind of information required in a virtual world; and scalability to large numbers of users and large virtual worlds. ISTP was developed in the context of the Spline platform for distributed virtual environments (DVEs).
Diffusivity of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo- p -dioxin in Organic Solvents (1991)

The extremely low water solubility and vapor pressure of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) cause it to be a very persistent soil contaminant. TCDD transport may occur when an organic phase provides a transportation medium, but mathematical description of this migration is not possible without a value for TCDD diffusivity in the organic solvent. In this work, the Taylor dispersion technique was used to measure the diffusivities of TCDD in several organic solvents. The results are reproducible and tend to be somewhat different from diffusivity estimates based on the Wilke-Chang correlation.

Calcium Borohydride for Hydrogen Storage:  Catalysis and Reversibility (2007)

We demonstrate a new solid-state synthesis route to prepare calcium borohydride, Ca(BH4)2, by reacting a ball-milled mixture of CaB(6) and CaH(2) in a molar ratio of 1:2 at 700 bar of H2 pressure and 400-440 degrees C. Moreover, doping with catalysts was found to be crucial to enhance reaction kinetics. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry revealed a reversible low-temperature to high-temperature endothermic phase transition at 140 degrees C and another endothermic phase transition at 350-390 degrees C associated with hydrogen release upon formation of CaB(6) and CaH(2), as was evident from X-ray diffraction analysis. Thus, since Ca(BH(4))(2) here is shown to be prepared from its anticipated decomposition products, the conclusion is that it has potential to be utilized as a reversible hydrogen storage material. The theoretical reversible capacity was 9.6 wt % hydrogen.
Lack of Galactose-α-1,3-Galactose Expression on Porcine Endothelial Cells Prevents Complement-Induced Lysis but Not Direct Xenogeneic NK Cytotoxicity (2004)

The galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alphaGal) carbohydrate epitope is expressed on porcine, but not human cells, and therefore represents a major target for preformed human anti-pig natural Abs (NAb). Based on results from pig-to-primate animal models, NAb binding to porcine endothelial cells will likely induce complement activation, lysis, and hyperacute rejection in pig-to-human xenotransplantation. Human NK cells may also contribute to innate immune responses against xenografts, either by direct recognition of activating molecules on target cells or by FcgammaRIII-mediated xenogeneic Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). The present study addressed the question as to whether the lack of alphaGal protects porcine endothelial cells from NAb/complement-induced lysis, direct xenogeneic NK lysis, NAb-dependent ADCC, and adhesion of human NK cells under shear stress. Homologous recombination, panning, and limiting dilution cloning were used to generate an alphaGal-negative porcine endothelial cell line, PED2*3.51. NAb/complement-induced xenogeneic lysis of PED2*3.51 was reduced by an average of 86% compared with the alphaGal-positive phenotype. PED2*3.51 resisted NK cell-mediated ADCC with a reduction of lysis ranging from 30 to 70%. However, direct xenogeneic lysis of PED2*3.51, mediated either by freshly isolated or IL-2-activated human NK cells or the NK cell line NK92, was not reduced. Furthermore, adhesion of IL-2-activated human NK cells did not rely on alphaGal expression. In conclusion, removal of alphaGal leads to a clear reduction in complement-induced lysis and ADCC, but does not resolve adhesion of NK cells and direct anti-porcine NK cytotoxicity, indicating that alphaGal is not a dominant target for direct human NK cytotoxicity against porcine cells.
Prediction of pre‐eclampsia by a combination of maternal history, uterine artery Doppler and mean arterial pressure (2008)

Regulation of Stat5 by FAK and PAK1 in Oncogenic FLT3 and KIT driven Leukemogenesis (2014)

Oncogenic mutations of FLT3 and KIT receptors are associated with poor survival in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), and currently available drugs are largely ineffective. Although Stat5 has been implicated in regulating several myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, how precisely Stat5 regulates leukemogenesis, including its nuclear translocation to induce gene transcription, is poorly understood. In leukemic cells, we show constitutive activation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) whose inhibition represses leukemogenesis. Downstream of FAK, activation of Rac1 is regulated by RacGEF Tiam1, whose inhibition prolongs the survival of leukemic mice. Inhibition of the Rac1 effector PAK1 prolongs the survival of leukemic mice in part by inhibiting the nuclear translocation of Stat5. These results reveal a leukemic pathway involving FAK/Tiam1/Rac1/PAK1 and demonstrate an essential role for these signaling molecules in regulating the nuclear translocation of Stat5 in leukemogenesis.
