Innovative, wearable snap connector technology for improved device networking in electronic garments (2007)

This paper discusses Physical Optics Corporation's (POC) wearable snap connector technology that provides for the transfer of data and power throughout an electronic garment (e-garment). These connectors resemble a standard garment button and can be mated blindly with only one hand. Fully compatible with military clothing, their application allows for the networking of multiple electronic devices and an intuitive method for adding/removing existing components from the system. The attached flexible cabling also permits the rugged snap connectors to be fed throughout the standard webbing found in military garments permitting placement in any location within the uniform. Variations of the snap electronics/geometry allow for integration with USB 2.0 devices, RF antennas, and are capable of transferring high bandwidth data streams such as the 221 Mbps required for VGA video. With the trend towards providing military officers with numerous electronic devices (i.e., heads up displays (HMD), GPS receiver, PDA, etc), POC's snap connector technology will greatly improve cable management resulting in a less cumbersome uniform. In addition, with electronic garments gaining widespread adoption in the commercial marketplace, POC's technology is finding applications in such areas as sporting good manufacturers and video game technology.
Dynamic model for hydraulic dissipators (2009)

The authors propose a mathematical model of a hydraulic link with energy dissipation, the device working reversibly to the alternative traction and compression movement. The dynamic behavior of the energy hydraulic dissipater depends on the instantaneous frequency (speed) of the excitation generated by the earthquake, mechanical shock or vibration. The control of dissipaters is obtained by appealing at a system composed of devices for regulating pressure (energy regulators), located outside the dissipater.
Real time estimation of projectile roll angle using magnetometers: In-flight experimental validation (2012)

The knowledge of the roll angle of a projectile is decisive to apply guidance and control law. For example, the goal of ISL's project GSP (Guided Supersonic Projectile) is to change the flight path of an air-defence projectile in order to correct the aim error due to the target manoeuvres. The originality of the concept is based on pyrotechnical actuators and onboard sensors which control the angular motion of the projectile. First of all, the control of the actuators requires the precise control of the roll angle of the projectile. To estimate the roll angle of the projectile, two magnetometers are embedded in the projectile to measure the projection of the earth magnetic field along radials axes of the projectiles. Then, an extended Kalman filter is used to compute the roll angle estimation. As the rolling frequency of the GSP is about 22 Hz, it is easy to test the navigation algorithm in laboratory. So in previous papers ([1],[5]) the in-lab demonstration of this concept shows that the roll angle estimation was possible with an accuracy of about 1° at 22 Hz. In this paper, the demonstration is extended to in-flight test, with a roll rate about 35 Hz. Thus, two magnetometers, a DSP and a LED (to simulate a thruster) are embedded inside the projectile; the DSP runs an extended Kalman filter and a guidance algorithm to compute the trigger times of the LED. By using a high speed camera (a trajectory tracker), we can observe that the LED is switch on at the target angle.

Autolytic Enzyme System of <i>Streptococcus faecalis</i> III. Localization of the Autolysin at the Sites of Cell Wall Synthesis (1967)

Cell walls from exponential-phase cultures of Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 9790 autolyzed in dilute buffers. Walls were isolated from cultures grown in the presence of (14)C-lysine for about 10 generations and then on (12)C-lysine for 0.1 to 0.8 of a generation (prelabeled). These walls released (14)C to the soluble fraction more slowly than they lost turbidity during the initial stages of autolysis. Walls isolated from cultures grown in the presence of (14)C-lysine for only the last 0.1 to 0.4 of a generation (postlabeled) released (14)C to the supernatant fluid more rapidly than they lost turbidity. Autolysin in both pre- and postlabeled walls was inactivated, and such walls were then incubated in the presence of unlabeled walls containing active autolysin. The inactivated walls lost their (14)C label only very slowly until autolysis of the unlabeled walls was virtually complete and release of soluble autolysin was expected. When this experiment was done in the presence of trypsin, a fourfold increase in the autolysis rate resulted, but the same pattern of (14)C release was observed. A parallel release of (14)C and loss of turbidity from pre- or postlabeled walls was observed upon trypsin "activation" and by addition of isolated soluble autolysin to inactivated walls. We conclude that the wall-bound autolysin acts first on the more recently synthesized portion of the wall. Trypsin appears to speed wall autolysis by activating additional latent autolysin in situ at sites in the older portion of the wall.
Cellular events associated with the initial phase of AA amyloidogenesis: insights from a human monocyte model (2007)

Reactive amyloidosis is a systemic protein deposition disease that develops in association with chronic inflammation. The deposits are composed of extracellular, fibrillar masses of amyloid A (AA) protein, an N-terminal fragment of the acute-phase serum protein serum amyloid A (SAA). The pathogenic conversion of SAA into amyloid has been studied in two human cell culture models, peritoneal cells and peripheral blood monocytes. Human monocyte cultures proved more robust than either mouse or human peritoneal cells at initiating amyloid formation in the absence of a preformed nidus such as amyloid-enhancing factor and particularly well suited for examination of individual cells undergoing amyloid formation. Amyloid-producing monocyte cultures were stained with Congo red and Alcian blue for detection of amyloid and glycosaminglycans, respectively; immunocytochemistry was performed to identify SAA/AA, CD68, CD14, lysosomal protein Lamp-1, and early endosomal protein EEA1. SAA interaction with monocytes was also visualized directly via fluorescence confocal microscopy. Amyloid was initially detected only in intracellular vesicles, but with time was seen extracellularly. Morphologic changes in lysosomes were noted during the early phase of amyloid formation, suggesting that exocytosis of fibrils may occur via lysosome-derived vesicles. Cultures engaged in amyloid formation remained metabolically active; no cytotoxic effects were observed. Mimicking in vivo phenomena, amyloid formation was accompanied by increased glycosaminoglycan content and C-terminal processing of SAA. The ability of human monocytes to endocytose and intracellularly transform SAA into amyloid via a mechanism that requires and maintains, rather than compromises, metabolic activity distinguishes them as a useful model for probing earliest events in the disease process.
Awareness and Use of Eye Care Services in Fiji (2006)

Central Province Fijians, particularly the old, rural, and female, under-utilise conventional eye care services. As in developing countries elsewhere, fatalistic attitudes to visual impairment are a significant contributor to this. To improve eye health, planning and implementation of eye care services must overcome under-utilisation by addressing local barriers to uptake through community participation in education and affirmative action.
Antibacterial Sphingolipid and Steroids from the Black Coral Antipathes dichotoma (2010)

From the black coral Antipathies dichotoma, a sphingolipid (2S*,3S*,4E,8E)-2N-[tetradecanoyl]-4(E),8(E)-icosadiene-1,3-diol (1) and a steroid (22E)-methylcholesta-5,22-diene-1α,3β,7α-triol (2) were isolated. Other known compounds, 3β,7α-dihydroxy-cholest-5-ene (3), (22E,24S),5α,8α-epidioxy-24-methylcholesta-6,22-dien-3β-ol (4) and (22E,24S),5α,8α-epidioxy-24-methylcholesta-6,9(11),22-trien-3β-ol (5). The structures were established on the basis of NMR spectroscopic analysis and comparison with literature. The antibacterial activity of five compounds was evaluated.
Synthesis and Antigenic Property of a Novel Sialyl 6‐<i>O</i>‐Sulfo Lewis X Neo‐glycolipid Containing Lactamized Neuraminic Acid (2004)

Abstract Synthesis and antigenic property of a novel 6‐O‐sulfated sLex neo‐glycolipid containing lactamized neuraminic acid are described. Coupling of methyl (methyl 4,7,8,9‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐3,5‐dideoxy‐5‐trifluoroacetamido‐D‐glycero‐α‐D‐galacto‐2‐nonulopyranosylonate)‐(2→3)‐4,6‐di‐O‐acetyl‐2‐O‐benzoyl‐1‐thio‐β‐D‐galactopyranoside (3) with 2‐(tetradecyl)hexadecyl (2,3,4‐tri‐O‐benzyl‐α‐L‐fucopyranosyl)‐(1→3)‐2‐acetamido‐2‐deoxy‐6‐O‐4‐methoxyphenyl‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside (7) gave a protected sLex tetrasaccharide glycolipid (8). Removal of all the acyl protecting groups and subsequent lactamization afforded the lactamized sLex derivative(10), which was converted to the target compound (14) by selective removal of the 4‐methoxyphenyl group and 6‐O‐sulfation of the GlcNAc residue, and removal of all protective groups under the basic conditions furnished the target molecule. The antigenic property of the synthesized neo‐glycolipid was examined by TLC‐immunostaining with G159 monoclonal antibody.
Evidence for isoelectronic Sn for Ge substitution in crystalline and glassy Ge<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:mrow><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi mathvariant="normal">Se</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:msub></mml:mrow></mml:math> (1984)

Ternary alloy glasses ${\mathrm{Ge}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Sn}}_{x}{\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ in the low-Sn-concentration range $0.002<x<0.010$ have been prepared and crystallized by heating to the crystallization temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{cryst}}$. M\"ossbauer spectroscopy is used to follow changes in bonding chemistry of the Sn dopant on crystallization of the glasses. Polymorphous crystallization of these Sn-poor glasses leads to the formation of tetrahedral Sn as in $\mathrm{Sn}{({\mathrm{Se}}_{\frac{1}{2}})}_{4}$ local unit and octahedral Sn as in a $c\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{e}$ phase but not as in a $c\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{n}{\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ phase. The latter crystalline phase is found when sputtered amorphous Sn${\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ films are crystallized. The tetrahedral Sn site observed in the glasses, as in the corresponding crystals, can therefore not come from an amorphous Sn-rich tetrahedral Sn${\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ phase but must come from Sn replacing Ge sites in a tetrahedral Ge${\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ phase. A lower limit to the solubility of Sn at Ge in $c\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{G}\mathrm{e}{\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ is placed at 0.2 at.% while in the glasses it is substantially larger and is conservatively placed at 3 at.%. These results demonstrate that the two sites provide evidence for broken chemical order in $g\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{Ge}{\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$.

Accelerated engineering design optimization using successive matrix inversion method (2006)

In a design optimization procedure, many repeated system analyses are conducted to evaluate certain performances of successively modified structural designs. To alleviate the high computational cost of structural reanalysis, an augmented preconditioner is introduced by using the successive matrix inversion (SMI) method. The SMI method, as an exact matrix solver, is successively applied to an iterative procedure to accelerate the solution convergence by improving the numerical condition of the reanalysis system. In this work, a new iterative technique, the binomial series iterative (BSI) method, is developed from the binomial series expansion by using the same concept as SMI. As a combined iterative (CI) method, SMI is incorporated in the procedure of BSI. The CI method, combined with SMI, shows sufficient efficiency and robustness through a stable iterative behaviour due to simple and straightforward computations in the iterative procedure.

Application of Stream Function Wave Theory to Offshore Design Problems (1972)

Abstract This paper presents several examples illustrating application of the stream function wave theory tabulations to problems of preliminary offshore design. Based on previous comparisons of the analytical and experimental validities of a number of wave theories, the stream function wave theory has been shown to provide a good representation of nonlinear waves over wide ranges of water depths, wave heights and wave periods. Tabulations have been prepared, summarizing various useful parameters and results from the theory. As an illustration of the application of the tabulations, examples are presented including:Water surface displacement, velocity and acceleration components and dynamic pressure components,Wave forces and moments on various vertical members of an offshore platform for normal wave incidence,Total wave forces and moments on a multi-legged platform for oblique wave incidence, andWave forces on a horizontal cylinder for normal wave incidence. Other applications of the tables are discussed. Introduction Preliminary design of fixed offshore structures is expedited by a means of rapidly calculating crest elevations, and wave and moment loading on a trial structure for a selected design wave. Also, in the preliminary evaluation of the performance of floating equipment, it is useful to be able to calculate, with reasonable accuracy, the velocity and acceleration components and dynamic pressure fields. This information can be used, for example, to develop an estimate of the motions of a semi-submersible from the known motions when acted upon by waves of a different period and height. The availability of a theory which has been tabulated and can be readily used is therefore a valuable tool for rational design in the offshore environment. There are a number of wave theories available for use by the design engineer. Although there is still need for more work to develop new theories in order to simulate design seas more effectively, a considerable body of knowledge is now available relating to the validities of the various wave theories. Most of the wave theories available for design have been derived on the basis of the assumption that the waves propagate in water of uniform depth without change of form. Included are: Stokes II, and higher order wave theories (1), (2), the conidial wave theories, (3), (4), the solitary wave theories (5), Cheapener?s numerical wave theory (6), the numerical theory by von Schwann and Reid (7), and the stream function wave theory by Dean (8). The following paragraphs review the basis for this class of theories and describe recent efforts to investigate the relative validities of some of the theories.

SYMPOSIUM: OXIDATIVE STRESS AND MEMBRANE EXCITABILITY - ON BEHALF OF THE WORKING GROUP ON CARDIAC CELLULAR ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY (2015)

# 89 The serine carboxypeptidase cathepsin a increases atrial fibrillation susceptibility {#article-title-2}

Introduction: The serine carboxypeptidase Cathepsin A (CatA) is distributed between lysosomes and extracellular space. Its cardiac expression is upregulated in heart failure patients and in murine models of diabetes, hypertension and myocardial infarction. However, the pathophysiological role of CatA in the heart is unknown.

Methods: We developed a heart transgenic mouse model (CatA-TG) to investigate the role of heart specific CatA-overexpression on left ventricular (LV) and atrial (LA) remodeling. Furthermore, in a rat model with ventricular ischemia for 30 min followed by 3 months of reperfusion (I/R-rats), we investigated the effect of the new selective CatA-inhibitor SAR1 on cardiac structural and functional remodeling.

Results: In CatA-TG the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase 3 (SOD3) was identified as a cardiac candidate substrate of CatA. This finding was validated by co-expression of recombinant SOD3 and CatA in HEK293 cells. In LV and LA of CatA-TG, highly increased CatA-expression and activity was accompanied by reduced protein levels of SOD3 and more oxidative stress, increased apoptosis and hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes and enhanced collagen expression and fibrosis content. Working heart analysis revealed no changes in LV-function, but susceptibility to atrial fibrillation was increased in CatA-TG. In I/R-rats, CatA-inhibition by SAR1 partly attenuated reduction in LV-ejection fraction and preserved regional parameters such as wall thickening and thickness in infarcted and in non-infarcted areas, which was confirmed by histological analysis. Additionally, SAR1 reduced atrial fibrosis formation as well as lateralization of connexin 43 and attenuated susceptibility to atrial tachyarrhythmias and preserved LA-emptying function.

Conclusions: CatA is upregulated in several pathophysiological conditions. We identified the antioxidant enzyme SOD3 as a cardiac substrate of CatA likely underlying oxidative stress associated LA and LV remodeling and increased susceptibility to atria tachyarrhythmias in CatA-TG. The prevention of ventricular and atrial remodeling by the CatA-inhibitor SAR1 in I/R-rats further supports a causal relationship and makes this enzyme a promising target in heart failure and atrial fibrillation.
STUDIES ON THE HERITABILITY OF THE VARIATION IN TBG-ACTIVITY AS REFLECTED IN THE RESIN UPTAKE OF 131I-T3 IN HUMANS (1972)

ABSTRACT The distribution of thyroxine binding globulin activity (TBG-activity) as determined by the measurement of the resin uptake of 131 I-triiodothyronine ( 131 I-T 3 ) has been studied in 96 Sardinian families including 339 normal males. 192 normal females and 59 Klinefelter patients. A sex difference was confirmed. No difference was however found between the levels exhibited by the Klinefelter patients and normal males. A quantitative heterogeneity in the resin uptake, which is largely under genetic control, has been found by performing exhaustive studies on the correlation of the expression of the trait in the relatives of different degree of kinship. Estimates of heritability have then been obtained which, while confirming the main genetic nature of the reported variation, do not allow us to decide in favour of an autosomal or X-linked model of inheritance. Arguments are discussed however which suggest that the interpretation of a quantitative heterogeneity in TBG-activity may depend on the existence of multiple allelism at one or more autosomal as well as at X-linked loci. The variability of PBI and resin uptake values can be partially explained by genetic factors.
Replacement of Tumor-Involved Mandible by Cryosurgically Devitalized Autograft: Human Experience (1980)

• In management of a malignant floorof-mouth tumor invading the mandible, the mandible is the main focus of reconstruction and the most likely site of rehabilitative failure. Creation of a functional and cosmetically appealing replacement is a major therapeutic goal. In canines, neoosteogenesis does occur in mandibular autografts exposed to two consecutive freeze-thaw cycles prior to reimplantation. Also postoperative radiotherapy in canines does not elicit a higher incidence of complications or promote failure of the mandibular autograft to reconstitute itself. This technique was used in a 52-year-old man with a large lesion in the anterior floor of the mouth extending into the inner cortex of the mandible. The theoretical advantages of nonantigenicity and excellence of mandibular configuration are obvious. That there are important pitfalls that may lead to reconstructive failure is equally obvious.
