Real‐time monitoring of carbon dioxide emissions from a shallow carbon dioxide release experiment (2020)

Abstract This study was conducted to analyze CO 2 migration from a shallow CO 2 release experiment using a continuous soil CO 2 flux measurement system. Approximately 1.8 t CO 2 was injected from 1 to 30 June 2016 through the point sources with perforated release wells laid at 2.5‐m soil depth. Using LI‐8100A instruments, CO 2 concentration, CO 2 flux, soil temperature, soil moisture, relative humidity, and atmospheric pressure were continuously measured every 30 min at 0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0 m from the well from 29 May to 4 August 2016. Typically sensors for soil temperature and moisture were installed at 5‐cm depth, and CO 2 concentration, relative humidity, and atmospheric pressure were measured at the chambers. The CO 2 flux was not maximum directly above the release well. Carbon dioxide flux at 6.0 m from the well was similar to the background level. The relationship between CO 2 flux and environmental factors, described using a temporal correlation analysis, indicated that CO 2 flux was primarily driven by soil temperature and had the inverse correlation with relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. Heavy rainfall inhibited in‐soil CO 2 migration by filling the soil pore with water. The anomalously high CO 2 flux detected at 1.5 m from the well may have been caused by the associated permeability structure, in which a permeability discrepancy leads to the vertical or horizontal flow of in‐soil CO 2 . These findings from this shallow CO 2 release experiment should be considered as basic information to characterize and model the in‐soil CO 2 transport related to CO 2 leakage.
Mixing console design for telematic applications in live performance and remote recording (2014)

The purpose of this presentation is to introduce a hardware-based mixing console architecture for telematic applications that integrates key features germane to distributed performance and remote recording. The current practice in state of the art telematic performance uses simple software-based interconnection with complex routing schemes and offers minimal flexibility or control over key parameters necessary to achieve a professional workflow. In addition to all customary features, the console will have surround panning capability for both the motorized binaural manikin as well as all sources within the auralization module. Key features such as self-labeling channel strips, onboard latency monitoring, synchronized remote audio recording and monitoring, and a highly flexible routing architecture will be integrated into the console design. This console design will provide a platform for the audio engineer to realize the full potential of telematics for networked performance and remote recording.
‘Awareness’ and ‘recall’ during emergence from general anaesthesia (2001)

A case is presented in which memory of events during emergence from anaesthesia resulted in serious psychological sequelae. Communication with patients should begin almost immediately after anaesthesia has been terminated and should have prevented this unfortunate incident.
Partial Identification of Water-Soluble Peptides Released at Early Stages of Proteolysis in Sterilized Ovine Cheese-Like Systems: Influence of Type of Coagulant and Starter (2005)

Cheese-like systems were manufactured from sterilized ovine milk, using crude aqueous extracts of Cynara cardunculus or cardosin A isolated therefrom as clotting agent. The effect of adding a commercial starter culture was also assessed. The impact of the type of coagulant used during the initial 24 h of proteolysis was evaluated via separation of peptides in the water-soluble extracts by reverse-phase HPLC, followed by partial sequencing via Edman degradation. Cardosin A accounted for most events of primary proteolysis. The major cleavage sites were Phe105-Met106 in kappa-casein, and Leu127-Thr128, Ser142-Trp143, Leu165-Ser166, and Leu190-Tyr191 in beta-casein. The starter culture did not play an active role during the initial stages of ripening.

Digital Tracking of Rheumatoid Arthritis Longitudinally (DIGITAL) Using Biosensor and Patient-Reported Outcome Data: Protocol for a Real-World Study (Preprint) (2019)

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a condition with symptoms that vary over time. The typical 3- to 6-month interval between physician visits may lead to patients failing to recall or underreporting symptoms experienced during the interim. Wearable digital technology enables the regular passive collection of patients’ biometric and activity data. If it is shown to be strongly related to data captured by patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures, information collected passively from wearable digital technology could serve as an objective proxy or be complementary to patients’ subjective experience of RA symptoms. </sec> <sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> The goal of this study is to characterize the extent to which digital measures collected from a consumer-grade smartwatch agree with measures of RA disease activity and other PROs collected via a smartphone app. </sec> <sec> <title>METHODS</title> This observational study will last 6 months for each participant. We aim to recruit 250 members of the ArthritisPower registry with an RA diagnosis who will receive a smartwatch to wear for the period of the study. From the ArthritisPower mobile app on their own smartphone device, participants will be prompted to answer daily and weekly electronic PRO (ePRO) measures for the first 3 months. </sec> <sec> <title>RESULTS</title> The study was launched in December 2018 and will require up to 18 months to complete. Study results are expected to be published by the end of 2021. </sec> <sec> <title>CONCLUSIONS</title> The completion of this study will provide important data regarding the following: (1) the relationship between passively collected digital measures related to activity, heart rate, and sleep collected from a smartwatch with ePROs related to pain, fatigue, physical function, and RA flare entered via smartphone app; (2) determine predictors of adherence with smartwatch and smartphone app technology; and (3) assess the effect of study-specific reminders on adherence with the smartwatch. </sec> <sec> <title>INTERNATIONAL REGISTERED REPORT</title> DERR1-10.2196/14665 </sec>
Anodic Coupling Reactions:  The Use of N,O-Ketene Acetal Coupling Partners (2004)

Intramolecular anodic olefin coupling reactions utilizing N,O-ketene acetals have been studied. Coupling reactions with both enol ether and allylsilane terminating groups were examined. The reactions involving the coupling of the N,O-ketene acetals with allylsilane groups were found to be much more efficient than corresponding reactions utilizing dithioketene acetal groups and allylsilanes. The reactions were also more efficient than the intramolecular coupling reactions between enol ethers and allylsilanes studied earlier.

The effects of freeze-drying on the potency and stability of live varicella virus vaccine. (1992)

Investigations into methods for improving the potency and stability of live varicella-zoster virus (Oka strain) vaccines have included the use of different lyophilization procedures which yielded products with different moisture levels. Three procedures were used: an 8-hour controlled-vacuum (0.47 mBars) procedure, a 14-hour controlled-vacuum (0.14 mBars) procedure, and a 48-hour high-vacuum (less than 0.07 mBars) procedure. Samples were stored for 24 months at -24 degrees C, -15 degrees C (in a frost-free freezer), and 4 degrees C. Potency was determined by a plaque assay in MRC-5 cells; moisture content was measured by the Karl Fisher method. Moisture content was 6 to 8 percent for the product made using the 8-hour procedure, 2 to 7 percent for the 14-hour procedure, and 0.5 to 1.5 percent for the 48-hour procedure. In addition to higher moisture, the 8-hour procedure resulted in a higher initial potency, indicating a lower loss during lyophilization, and better stability than did the 14- and 48-hour procedures. Although the initial potency from the 14-hour procedure was not statistically different from that for the 48-hour procedure, the product made with the 14-hour procedure did have better stability characteristics than that made with the 48-hour procedure.
Data from Cell Division Cycle 25B Phosphatase Is Essential for Benzo(<i>a</i>)Pyrene-7,8-Diol-9,10-Epoxide–Induced Neoplastic Transformation (2023)

&lt;div&gt;Abstract&lt;p&gt;Cell division cycle 25B (Cdc25B) phosphatase controls entry into mitosis and regulates recovery from G&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;-M checkpoint-induced arrest. In the present study, we show that exposure of diploid mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) to the ultimate carcinogen &lt;i&gt;anti-&lt;/i&gt;benzo(&lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;)pyrene (BP)-7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide (&lt;i&gt;anti&lt;/i&gt;-BPDE) resulted in a concentration- and time-dependent increase in Cdc25B protein levels. Chronic exposure of wild-type (Cdc25B&lt;sup&gt;+/+&lt;/sup&gt;) MEFs to &lt;i&gt;anti&lt;/i&gt;-BPDE (0.1 μmol/L) caused neoplastic transformation characterized by colony formation in culture and tumor production in nude mice. In contrast, the Cdc25B null MEFs were resistant to &lt;i&gt;anti&lt;/i&gt;-BPDE–induced transformation. Furthermore, a carcinogenic dose of the parent hydrocarbon (BP) increased Cdc25B protein levels in the target organ, lung. The biological importance of elevated Cdc25B levels was documented by the early reentry into mitosis of cells overexpressing ectopic Cdc25B levels even in the presence of DNA damage following &lt;i&gt;anti&lt;/i&gt;-BPDE exposure, whereas control cells resumed only after DNA damage was repaired. We conclude that Cdc25B has an essential role in &lt;i&gt;anti&lt;/i&gt;-BPDE–induced neoplastic transformation, including regulation of cell cycle resumption in the presence of DNA damage.

A Comparison of Pullout Strength for Pedicle Screws of Different Designs (2006)

The pullout strength was not increased by tapping for the screws in this study. Screws placed in untapped holes generally had higher pullout strengths and lower standard deviations. The results of this study suggest that tapping does not increase pullout strength in bone with densities near 20 lb/ft3, which correlates with low density cancellous or osteoporotic bone.
¿QUÉ LLAMAN LOS GOLPES DE TAMBOR? APUNTES SOBRE MÚSICA, AGENCIA Y RE(EX)SISTENCIA (2010)

The “spaces of death”, the technologies of terror and discipline, as well as obscured, racially biased and colonized accounts have historically eclipsed the militancy and the militants oflife, joy, music, festivities, and, consequently, of the colors, scents and rhythms of an era, with all the concomitant sociopolitical significations and repercussions. From this premise, the essay revindicates music as an overflowing universe that is also responsible for the carrying on of existence, the agency of history, and for giving testimony on a wide range of struggles, connections and songs —living proof of how life, even among the colonial wound and trauma— can dress for the festivities as palliative and interpellation. The mulatto forms of music, as visible links in the chain of affections and experiences, are a sociohistorical product, a cry of emancipation and social resistance, a vitalistic reaction in our multicolored, festive, feeling and thinking America.

Uncertainty of Data, Fuzzy Membership Functions, and Multilayer Perceptrons (2005)

Probability that a crisp logical rule applied to imprecise input data is true may be computed using fuzzy membership function (MF). All reasonable assumptions about input uncertainty distributions lead to MFs of sigmoidal shape. Convolution of several inputs with uniform uncertainty leads to bell-shaped Gaussian-like uncertainty functions. Relations between input uncertainties and fuzzy rules are systematically explored and several new types of MFs discovered. Multilayered perceptron (MLP) networks are shown to be a particular implementation of hierarchical sets of fuzzy threshold logic rules based on sigmoidal MFs. They are equivalent to crisp logical networks applied to input data with uncertainty. Leaving fuzziness on the input side makes the networks or the rule systems easier to understand. Practical applications of these ideas are presented for analysis of questionnaire data and gene expression data.
MicroRNAs suppress NB domain genes in tomato that confer resistance to Fusarium oxysporum (2014)

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) suppress the transcriptional and post-transcriptional expression of genes in plants. Several miRNA families target genes encoding nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) plant innate immune receptors. The fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici causes vascular wilt disease in tomato. We explored a role for miRNAs in tomato defense against F. oxysporum using comparative miRNA profiling of susceptible (Moneymaker) and resistant (Motelle) tomato cultivars. slmiR482f and slmiR5300 were repressed during infection of Motelle with F. oxysporum. Two predicted mRNA targets each of slmiR482f and slmiR5300 exhibited increased expression in Motelle and the ability of these four targets to be regulated by the miRNAs was confirmed by co-expression in Nicotiana benthamiana. Silencing of the targets in the resistant Motelle cultivar revealed a role in fungal resistance for all four genes. All four targets encode proteins with full or partial nucleotide-binding (NB) domains. One slmiR5300 target corresponds to tm-2, a susceptible allele of the Tomato Mosaic Virus resistance gene, supporting functions in immunity to a fungal pathogen. The observation that none of the targets correspond to I-2, the only known resistance (R) gene for F. oxysporum in tomato, supports roles for additional R genes in the immune response. Taken together, our findings suggest that Moneymaker is highly susceptible because its potential resistance is insufficiently expressed due to the action of miRNAs.
Wood Chip Drying in Fixed Beds: Drying Kinetics and Economics of Drying at a Municipal Combined Heat and Power Plant Site (2014)

Drying of wood chips at a power plant site increases the lower heating value and decreases composting and dry matter losses in long-term storage. In this study, experimentally measured drying curves for wood chips are produced to study the drying kinetics of the chips. Drying curves have been used to assess whether or not wood chip drying in a batch-type fixed bed dryer at a municipal Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant site is profitable when using external excess heat or solar energy as a heat source in drying, and what could be the reasonable drying parameters for that. The curves have been determined by changing bed heights (100, 300, 500 mm), temperature of inlet air (30, 50, 70, 90°C) and air velocities (0.3 m/s, 0.5 m/s, 0.7 m/s) in the tests. Air has been used as a drying gas. The results show that drying time decreases considerably when the temperature of the drying air increases from 50°C to 70°C. The influence of drying air temperature on the drying time is no longer so remarkable as the temperature increases from 70°C to 90°C. This indicates that the inlet air temperature should be at least 70°C. The results also indicate that the air velocity should be at least 0.5 m/s in order to achieve reasonable drying times. The economics of drying have been evaluated in the study by calculating the payback period for the dryer. According to the results, drying could be profitable if investment costs are appropriate (not much higher than 1,500 €/m2) and the price of the wood chips is sufficiently high (higher than ∼15–20 €/MWh). It is, however, important to consider that drying at a municipal CHP plant site is always case-dependent.
Near-island biological hotspots in barren ocean basins (2016)

Phytoplankton production drives marine ecosystem trophic-structure and global fisheries yields. Phytoplankton biomass is particularly influential near coral reef islands and atolls that span the oligotrophic tropical oceans. The paradoxical enhancement in phytoplankton near an island-reef ecosystem--Island Mass Effect (IME)--was first documented 60 years ago, yet much remains unknown about the prevalence and drivers of this ecologically important phenomenon. Here we provide the first basin-scale investigation of IME. We show that IME is a near-ubiquitous feature among a majority (91%) of coral reef ecosystems surveyed, creating near-island 'hotspots' of phytoplankton biomass throughout the upper water column. Variations in IME strength are governed by geomorphic type (atoll vs island), bathymetric slope, reef area and local human impacts (for example, human-derived nutrient input). These ocean oases increase nearshore phytoplankton biomass by up to 86% over oceanic conditions, providing basal energetic resources to higher trophic levels that support subsistence-based human populations.
Characterizing CPV in a Lattice Mismarched World (2015)

In this work, we discuss difficulties we have faced while characterizing non-LM-Ge based CPV modules at the Instituto de Energía Solar, including: 1. For MJ cells with a 1eV bottom, bottom sub-cells may be current matched to the other two cells at reference spectrum. 2.In the case of metamorphic sells, with lower bandgaps in the middle cell, we find that certain spectral artifacts that previously had little influence on the middle cell (and therefore on ratio of JTop to JMid) are now more important.
Concepts and embodiment design of a reentry recumbent seating system for the NASA Space Shuttle (1993)

This report deals with the generation of a recumbent seating system which will be used by NASA to shuttle astronauts from the Russian space station Mir. We begin by examining the necessity for designing a special couch for the returning astronauts. Next, we discuss the operating conditions and constraints of the recumbent seating system and provide a detailed function structure. After working through the conceptual design process, we came up with ten alternative designs which are presented in the appendices. These designs were evaluated and weighted to systematically determine the best choice for embodiment design. A detailed discussion of all components of the selected system follows with design calculations for the seat presented in the appendices. The report concludes with an evaluation of the resulting design and recommendations for further development.
A new clustering algorithm for scanning electron microscope images (2016)

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a type of electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with the sample atoms, producing various signals that are collected by detectors. The gathered signals contain information about the sample’s surface topography and composition. The electron beam is generally scanned in a raster scan pattern, and the beam’s position is combined with the detected signal to produce an image. The most common configuration for an SEM produces a single value per pixel, with the results usually rendered as grayscale images. The captured images may be produced with insufficient brightness, anomalous contrast, jagged edges, and poor quality due to low signal-to-noise ratio, grained topography and poor surface details. The segmentation of the SEM images is a tackling problems in the presence of the previously mentioned distortions. In this paper, we are stressing on the clustering of these type of images. In that sense, we evaluate the performance of the well-known unsupervised clustering and classification techniques such as connectivity based clustering (hierarchical clustering), centroid-based clustering, distribution-based clustering and density-based clustering. Furthermore, we propose a new spatial fuzzy clustering technique that works efficiently on this type of images and compare its results against these regular techniques in terms of clustering validation metrics.
The Stereochemical Outcomes – the Isoborneol/Borneol Ratios – in Lithium, Sodium and Potassium/Ammonia Reductions without a Proton Source of the Enantiomers and the Racemate of Camphor Differ Strongly (1982)

Abstract The stereochemical outcomes [ratios (1 R , 2 R , 4 R )‐isoborneol/(l R , 2 S, 4 R ) isborneol or (1 R , 2 S, 4 S)‐isoborneol(l S , 2 R , 4 S )‐borneol and (1 RS, 2 RS, 4 RS)‐isoborneol/(l RS , 2 SR , 4 RS )‐borneol] in lithium, sodium and potassium/ammonia reductions without a proton source of the enantiomeric [(1 R , 4 R ) or (1 S , 4 S )] and racemic (1 RS , 4 RS ) forms of camphor under the same conditions differ strongly. This explains contradictory reports in the literature and, in the case of the reductions with potassium in which pinacol coupling does not compete, proves that the reductions involve bimolecular reactions between two ketyls, or between the ketone and the ketyl or the ketone dianion.
