Digital twin-driven rapid individualised designing of automated flow-shop manufacturing system (2018)

Under a mass individualisation paradigm, the individualised design of manufacturing systems is difficult as it involves adaptive integrating both new and legacy machines for the formation of part families with uncertainty. A systematic virtual model mirroring the real world of manufacturing system is essential to bridge the gap between its design and operation. This paper presents a digital twin-driven methodology for rapid individualised designing of the automated flow-shop manufacturing system. The digital twin merges physics-based system modelling and distributed semi-physical simulation to provide engineering solution analysis capabilities and generates an authoritative digital design of the system at pre-production phase. An effective feedbacking of collected decision-support information from the intelligent multi-objective optimisation of the dynamic execution is presented to boost the applicability of the digital twin vision in the designing of AFMS. Finally, a bi-level iterative coordination mechanism is proposed to achieve optimal design performance for required functions of AFMS. A case study is conducted to prove the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
Simultaneous Determination of E- and Z-Guggulsterones in Dietary Supplements Containing Commiphora mukul Extract (Guggulipid) by Liquid Chromatography (2001)

Guggulipid, the standardized product from the extraction of the ole-gum-resin from the Commiphora mukul plant, has been marketed as a hypolipidemic agent. The ketosteroids, cis- and trans-4,17(20)-pregnadiene-3,16-dione, known as E- and Z-guggulsterones, respectively, are the main ingredients in guggulipid. A liquid chromatographic method was developed for simultaneous determination of E- and Z-guggulsterones in guggulipid preparations using synthetic E- and Z-guggulsterone standards. Realtively low amounts of guggulsterones (E and Z) were found in commercial guggulipid preparations in comparison with the manufacturer's claim of 2.5%. The mixture of E- and Z-guggulsterones was extracted and separated on a Symmetry C18 reversed-phase column, with a mobile phase of acetonitrile--water (46 + 54, v/v) and detected at 242 nm. The retention times of E- and Z-guggulsterones are approximately 8 and 11 min, respectively. Assay quantitation was based on the calibration curve obtained from a mixture of synthetic standard E- and Z-guggulsterones. Experimental data on selectivity, linearity, accuracy, and recoveries are presented.

Investigation of spontaneous ordering in GaInP using reflectance difference spectroscopy (1994)

Reflectance difference spectroscopy (RDS) is applied to the study of optical anisotropy in spontaneously ordered GaInP grown by metalorganic chemical-vapor deposition. The degree of ordering in GaInP has been associated previously with a shift of the band-gap energy ΔE0, and a crystal-field valence-band splitting ΔC. Theoretically and experimentally, both quantities are approximately proportional to the square of the order parameter, which varies from 0 to 1 for disordered and perfectly ordered GaInP, respectively. In this study, we examined a number of GaInP layers grown under conditions that yield a wide range of band-gap energies. The main spectral feature in all samples is a bulk-related, asymmetric peak at E0 with a long tail that extends well below E0 and a sharp, high-energy cutoff at E0+ΔC. The intensity of this peak is proportional to √ΔE0 and is therefore linear with the order parameter. By annealing GaInP in PH3/H2 mixtures, we find that the RD spectral features for energies between E0+ΔC and 3 eV are mainly surface induced. Evidence for a bulk-related RDS peak at E1 is also found.
Location Dependent CDMA Orthogonality in System Level Simulations (2005)

In system simulations of WCDMA radio networks, a constant value for the orthogonality factor is often assumed in the whole considered area of interest to determine the network performance. This factor is used to scale the intra-cell interference, which has an important impact on the network performance. However, the orthogonality factor is not constant, but depends on the individual channel profile between transmitter and receiver, as well as on the receiver implementation. Therefore, this factor is different for every particular user. In a new approach, the orthogonality factor is calculated dependent on the above parameters for each receiver point individually. Comparisons of this new approach with the simple constant value approach are presented. The results show that the assumption of a constant orthogonality factor within a cell may lead to unrealistic results in system level simulations, especially if interference sensitive high bit rate services are considered, e.g., the packet transmission technology HSDPA (high speed downlink packet access). Especially in the field of performance analysis for network planning and design, it is important to obtain an accurate performance estimate with a correlation to the predicted area, instead of average values for the whole simulation area.
Two Methods of Simulator Coupling (2000)

Modelling and simulation of complex engineering systems are often relieved by a modular approach in which the global system is decomposed into subsystems. Advantages arise from independent and parallel modelling of subsystems over easy exchange of the resulting modules to the use of different software for each module. However, the modular simulation of the global system by coupling of simulators may result in an unstable integration, if an algebraic loop exists between the subsystems. This numerical phenomenon is analyzed and two methods of simulator coupling which guarantee stability for general systems including algebraic loops are introduced. Numerical results of the modular simulation of a multibody system are presented.
SAFETY OF ARCHAEOSOME ADJUVANTS EVALUATED IN A MOUSE MODEL* (2002)

Archaeosomes, liposomes prepared from the polar ether lipids extracted from Archaea, demonstrate great potential as immunomodulating carriers of soluble antigens, promoting humoral and cell mediated immunity in the vaccinated host. The safety of unilamellar archaeosomes prepared from the total polar lipids (TPL) of Halobacterium salinarum, Methanobrevibacter smithii or Thermoplasma acidophilum was evaluated in female BALB/c mice using ovalbumin (OVA) as the model antigen. Groups of 6-8 mice were injected (0.1 mL final volume) subcutaneously at 0 and 21 days, with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 11 microg OVA in PBS, 1.25 mg of antigen-free archaeosomes in PBS (ca 70 mg/kg body wt), or PBS containing 11-20 microg OVA encapsulated in 1.25mg archaeosomes. Animals were monitored daily for injection site reactions, body weight,temperature and clinical signs of adverse reactions. Sera were collected on days 1, 2, 22, and 39 for analyses of creatine phosphokinase. Mice were sacrificed on 39 d, sera were collected for biochemical analyses, and major organs (liver, spleen, kidneys, heart, lungs) were weighed and examined macroscopically. There were no indications of adverse reactions or toxicity associated with any of the archaeosome adjuvants. None of the antigen-free archaeosomes elicited significant anti lipid antibodies when subcutaneously injected (1 mg each at 0, 1, 2, and 4 weeks) in mice, although anti H. salinarum lipid antibodies were detected. These antilipid antibodies cross-reacted with the TPL of T. acidophilum archaeosomes but not with the TPL of M. smithii archaeosomes nor with lipids of ester liposomes made from L-alpha-dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC), L-alpha-dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol (DMPG), and cholesterol (CHOL). In vitro hemolysis assay on mouse erythrocytes indicated no lysis with M. smithii or T. acidophilum archaeosomes at up to 2.5 mg/mL concentration. At this concentration, H. salinarum archaeosomes and DMPC/DMPG/CHOL ester liposomes caused about 2% and 4% hemolysis, respectively. Based on this mouse model evaluation, archaeosomes are well-tolerated and appear relatively safe for potential vaccine applications.
Delayed choice for entanglement swapping (2000)

Abstract Two observers (Alice and Bob) independently prepare two sets of singlets. They test one particle of each singlet along an arbitrarily chosen direction and send the other particle to a third observer, Eve. At a later time, Eve performs joint tests on pairs of particles (one from Alice and one from Bob). According to Eve's choice of test and to her results, Alice and Bob can sort into subsets the samples that they have already tested, and they can verify that each subset behaves as if it consisted of entangled pairs of distant particles that have never communicated in the past, even indirectly via other particles.
Low Offset Drift–Low-Noise Orthogonal Fluxgate With Synchronized Polarity Flipping (2016)

In this paper, we present an orthogonal fluxgate in fundamental mode with extremely stable offset and low noise. The typical solution to stabilizing the offset in this type of sensor is to flip the dc bias of its excitation current and subtract the output obtained with opposite polarities. In this case, on the contrary, we flip both the ac and dc components of the excitation current and sum the output voltages. This is performed using fast solid-state switches with low on-resistance. In this way, we achieved a large suppression of the dependence of the offset on temperature, obtaining an average offset drift of 0.012 nT/K, making this sensor on the top class for offset stability. We digitally sampled and numerically demodulated the output voltage of the sensor to extract the first harmonic. The value of the first harmonic shows noise right after switching of the current. Therefore, we numerically erased those few noisy values of the first harmonic before integrating it. In this way, we managed to limit the noise growth given by switching of the current. Finally, we strongly improved the offset stability with minor increment of noise.
Reduced Sun Exposure Does Not Explain the Inverse Association of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D with Percent Body Fat in Older Adults (2007)

In older adults, sun exposure habits do not vary according to adiposity and do not appear to explain lower 25(OH)D concentrations with increasing adiposity.
Outerjoin simplification and reordering for query optimization (1997)

Conventional database optimizers take full advantage of associativity and commutativity properties of join to implement efficient and powerful optimizations on select/project/join queries. However, only limited optimization is performed on other binary operators. In this article, we present the theory and algorithms needed to generate alternative evaluation orders for the optimization of queries containing outerjoins. Our results include both a complete set of transformation rules, suitable for new-generation, transformation-based optimizers, and a bottom-up join enumeration algorithm compatible with those used by traditional optimizers.
Classification of herpesvirus saimiri into three groups based on extreme variation in a DNA region required for oncogenicity (1984)

The leftmost 7 kilobase pairs of unique sequence L-DNA of herpesvirus saimiri was found to be highly variable among different strains as determined by restriction endonuclease analysis and blot hybridization. This region in one group of viruses (group A) showed only very weak hybridization with the DNA of two other groups. Similarly, a fragment of group B hybridized to DNA of its own group much more strongly than to group A. No homology was detected within a 1.2-kilobase-pair region between strain 11 (group A virus) and strain SMHI (group B) even under reduced stringency, and the adjacent 5.5-kilobase-pair segment of the region showed only a very weak intergroup hybridization. DNA of a third group of viruses (non-A, non-B) did not hybridize significantly with cloned fragments representing the leftmost 7-kilobase-pair region of either group A or group B. Since sequences in the highly variable region are required for the oncogenicity of the virus, these results raise interesting questions regarding the origin and function of this region of the genome.

A Review of Research on Large Scale Modern Vertical Axis Wind Turbines at Uppsala University (2016)

This paper presents a review of over a decade of research on Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) conducted at Uppsala University. The paper presents, among others, an overview of the 200 kW VAWT located in Falkenberg, Sweden, as well as a description of the work done on the 12 kW prototype VAWT in Marsta, Sweden. Several key aspects have been tested and successfully demonstrated at our two experimental research sites. The effort of the VAWT research has been aimed at developing a robust large scale VAWT technology based on an electrical control system with a direct driven energy converter. This approach allows for a simplification where most or all of the control of the turbines can be managed by the electrical converter system, reducing investment cost and need for maintenance. The concept features an H-rotor that is omnidirectional in regards to wind direction, meaning that it can extract energy from all wind directions without the need for a yaw system. The turbine is connected to a direct driven permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), located at ground level, that is specifically developed to control and extract power from the turbine. The research is ongoing and aims for a multi-megawatt VAWT in the near future.
Multilevel priority scheme for fiber-optic code division multiple access (CDMA) packet networks (2002)

A multilevel priority scheme for fiber-optic CDMA is proposed. Users are divided into groups with different transmission power levels. Since the inherent properties and signal processing of the conventional communication channels are different from those of the fiber-optic channels, new code sequences must be constructed for fiber-optic applications. Furthermore, fiber-optic systems can be modeled as positive systems. Therefore, the packets from higher power groups can transmit successfully with higher probability than those from lower power groups. This implies that packets with higher power levels have higher priority than those packets with lower power levels. The goal of this research is to analyze the performance of fiber-optic CDMA packet networks using code sequences with given orthogonality properties.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Automatic generation of optical initial configuration based on Delano diagram (2016)

This paper presents a method to automatically initialize an optical system based on the Delano diagram. The process to generate the optical initial configuration is constrained by the control points, which are deduced from parameters related to basic design requirements. We present the theory and method to generate the optical initial configuration automatically when the basic design requirements are known. Two optical systems are taken as examples to demonstrate the proposed method.

Enzymatic cleaning of biofouled thin-film composite reverse osmosis (RO) membrane operated in a biofilm membrane reactor (2013)

Application of environmentally friendly enzymes to remove thin-film composite (TFC) reverse osmosis (RO) membrane biofoulants without changing the physico-chemical properties of the RO surface is a challenging and new concept. Eight enzymes from Novozyme A/S were tested using a commercially available biofouling-resistant TFC polyamide RO membrane (BW30, FilmTech Corporation, Dow Chemical Co.) without filtration in a rotating disk reactor system operated for 58 days. At the end of the operation, the accumulated biofoulants on the TFC RO surfaces were treated with the three best enzymes, Subtilisin protease and lipase; dextranase; and polygalacturonase (PG) based enzymes, at neutral pH (~7) and doses of 50, 100, and 150 ppm. Contact times were 18 and 36 h. Live/dead staining, epifluorescence microscopy measurements, and 5 μm thick cryo-sections of enzyme and physically treated biofouled membranes revealed that Subtilisin protease- and lipase-based enzymes at 100 ppm and 18 h contact time were optimal for removing most of the cells and proteins from the RO surface. Culturable cells inside the biofilm declined by more than five logs even at the lower dose (50 ppm) and shorter incubation period (18 h). Subtilisin protease- and lipase-based enzyme cleaning at 100 ppm and for 18 h contact time restored the hydrophobicity of the TFC RO surface to its virgin condition while physical cleaning alone resulted in a 50° increase in hydrophobicity. Moreover, at this optimum working condition, the Subtilisin protease- and lipase-based enzyme treatment of biofouled RO surface also restored the surface roughness measured with atomic force microscopy and the mass percentage of the chemical compositions on the TFC surface estimated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to its virgin condition. This novel study will encourage the further development and application of enzymes to remove biofoulants on the RO surface without changing its surface properties.
Damage and Recovery of Riparian Sierra Palms after Hurricane Georges: Influence of Topography and Biotic Characteristics (2006)

ABSTRACT Tropical forests are often shaped by disturbance events, especially in regions where hurricanes and other severe storms occur. We studied the effects of Hurricane Georges (September 1998) on the sierra palm ( Prestoea acuminata var. montana ) in the Luquillo Mountains of Puerto Rico. We established riparian transects along two headwater streams that were similar in size and location, but differed in riparian tree species composition and land‐use history. Following Hurricane Georges, sierra palms were surveyed periodically for damage and recovery (measured by initial loss and subsequent regrowth of palm leaves), tree height, sun exposure, and production of inflorescences and infructescences. Palm height had the highest association with damage, with most damage occurring to canopy palms. Palm recovery (4 mo and 10 mo post‐hurricane) was associated with high tree density, indicating that sun exposure was not limiting. Hurricane Georges likely reduced production of flowers and fruits in sierra palms for at least 10 mo following the storm, although production of new leaves was rapid. Although palms recovered quickly from defoliation after the hurricane, decreased reproduction resulted in reduced availability of fruit for terrestrial and aquatic consumers.
Inducible Siphoviruses in superficial and deep tissue isolates of Propionibacterium acnes (2008)

Our findings indicate that temperate phages are common in P. acnes, and that they are a genetically and functionally homogeneous group of Siphoviruses. The phages are specific for P. acnes and do not seem to confer superinfection immunity.

The Insertion Green Monster (iGM) Method for Expression of Multiple Exogenous Genes in Yeast (2014)

Being a simple eukaryotic organism, Saccharomyces cerevisiae provides numerous advantages for expression and functional characterization of proteins from higher eukaryotes, including humans. However, studies of complex exogenous pathways using yeast as a host have been hampered by the lack of tools to engineer strains expressing a large number of genetic components. In addition to inserting multiple genes, it is often desirable to knock out or replace multiple endogenous genes that might interfere with the processes studied. Here, we describe the "insertion Green Monster" (iGM) set of expression vectors that enable precise insertion of many heterologous genes into the yeast genome in a rapid and reproducible manner and permit simultaneous replacement of selected yeast genes. As a proof of principle, we have used the iGM method to replace components of the yeast pathway for methionine sulfoxide reduction with genes encoding the human selenoprotein biosynthesis machinery and generated a single yeast strain carrying 11 exogenous components of the selenoprotein biosynthetic pathway in precisely engineered loci.
IgG marker of optic-spinal multiple sclerosis binds to the aquaporin-4 water channel (2005)

Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease that selectively affects optic nerves and spinal cord. It is considered a severe variant of multiple sclerosis (MS), and frequently is misdiagnosed as MS, but prognosis and optimal treatments differ. A serum immunoglobulin G autoantibody (NMO-IgG) serves as a specific marker for NMO. Here we show that NMO-IgG binds selectively to the aquaporin-4 water channel, a component of the dystroglycan protein complex located in astrocytic foot processes at the blood-brain barrier. NMO may represent the first example of a novel class of autoimmune channelopathy.
From the Theory of "Good and Evil" to The Theory of The Rule of Law (2023)

In the current social background, a relatively perfect legal system has been established, and there are many laws and institutional norms to maintain social order. In this context, if we want to further improve the current system, we also need to learn from history. The study and study of pre-Qin legalist thought, in fact, can play such a role. At present, the study of pre-Qin legalist thought, for the current construction and development of the rule of law, is also relatively important.
