The Accounting Mirror of the Banking Business: The Bank of Barcelona (1845-1856) (2017)

El Banco de Barcelona fue el primer banco emisor regional en España. Gracias a la reciente recuperación del archivo del Banco de Barcelona, analizamos los ratios contables de solvencia, liquidez y rentabilidad para el periodo 1844-1856. El análisis de los ratios contables muestra que el Banco de Barcelona elevó el grado de apalancamiento financiero. La rentabilidad del accionista se incrementó pero la solvencia y la liquidez se redujeron tras la crisis financiera de 1847-1848. En los orígenes del sistema financiero, cuando no había un sistema rígido de control legal sobre la actividad bancaria, la rentabilidad del accionista fue el objetivo prioritario frente a los objetivos de solvencia y liquidez.
The Limits of Right Ventricular Compensation Following Acute Increase in Pulmonary Circulatory Resistance (1954)

The ability of the right ventricle to compensate as the pulmonary artery is constricted appears to be determined by four major factors: (1) there occurs the well-known increased force of contraction as the right heart becomes distended; (2) the adequacy of the coronary circulation determines to a great extent the Degrees of pulmonary arterial constriction which can occur before failure occurs; (3) the circulatory reflexes apparently aid the compensation to a moderate extent; and (4) the greater the blood volume, the greater is the limit of compensation before right ventricular failure occurs.
Improving color correction across camera and illumination changes by contextual sample selection (2012)

In many tasks of machine vision applications, it is important that recorded colors remain constant, in the real world scene, even under changes of the illuminants and the cameras. Contrary to the human vision system, a machine vision system exhibits inadequate adaptability to the variation of lighting conditions. Automatic white balance control available in commercial cameras is not sufficient to provide reproducible color classification. We address this problem of color constancy on a large image database acquired with varying digital cameras and lighting conditions. A device-independent color representation may be obtained by applying a chromatic adaptation transform, from a calibrated color checker pattern included in the field of view. Instead of using the standard Macbeth color checker, we suggest selecting judicious colors to design a customized pattern from contextual information. A comparative study demonstrates that this approach ensures a stronger constancy of the colors-of-interest before vision control thus enabling a wide variety of applications.

Constraint-based automatic test data generation (1991)

A novel technique for automatically generating test data is presented. The technique is based on mutation analysis and creates test data that approximate relative adequacy. It is a fault-based technique that uses algebraic constraints to describe test cases designed to find particular types of faults. A set of tools (collectively called Godzilla) that automatically generates constraints and solves them to create test cases for unit and module testing has been implemented. Godzilla has been integrated with the Mothra testing system and has been used as an effective way to generate test data that kill program mutants. The authors present an initial list of constraints and discuss some of the problems that have been solved to develop the complete implementation of the technique.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Accuracy Analysis of the Multicycle Synchrophasor Estimator Provided by the Interpolated DFT Algorithm (2013)

This paper investigates the accuracy of synchrophasor estimators provided by the interpolated discrete Fourier transform (IpDFT) algorithm under both steady-state and dynamic conditions when two- or three-cycle length observation intervals are considered. According to the IEEE Standard C37.118.1-2011 about synchrophasor measurements for power systems, the estimation accuracy is expressed by the total vector error (TVE). The effect on the estimation accuracy of different window functions, observation interval lengths, and processed DFT samples is analyzed through computer simulations. It is shown that most of the performance requirements specified in the Standard can be satisfied with a proper selection of the algorithm characteristics. Also, the performances of the proposed synchrophasor estimators and state-of-the-art estimators recently proposed in the scientific literature are compared and discussed. Some experimental results are presented in order to confirm the performed analysis.
Bubbles and blisters impact on die-casting cage to the designs and operations of line-start synchronous reluctance motors (2016)

This paper includes an investigation of the starting capability of a high efficiency synchronous reluctance motor for direct on-line industrial applications. The approach is to design and optimal of multi-barriers inside rotor to achieve the starting properties of an line start synchronous reluctance motor (LS-SynRM) and the steady-state performance. Using an equivalent circuit on the basis of symmetric field theory, conditions are found for balanced operation at rated conditions and for state/rotor copper loss minimization in the rotor. The optimal model of LS-SynRM is compared and evaluated against a same size induction motor (IM). In addition, the shape of cage bar in LS-SynRM rotor will be analyzed, along with the generated motor torque and loss assessment. As the related die-casting processes on the end-ring and of cage bar achieve desired low rotor resistance, their impacts to the synchronization of LS-SynRM due to bubble/blister during die-casting will also be thoroughly evaluated. Assisted by finite-element analysis (FEM), the results clearly indicated that the rotor slots optimal with die-casting process on the rotor must be introduced for LS-SynRM designs with better steady-state performance and higher efficiency requirements.
Load-Sensitive Hydrostatic Steering-A New Approach (1975)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">Load-sensitive hydraulic control systems have demonstrated new potential high efficiency levels. Mobile equipment designs which widely utilize open and closed center circuits are being adapted to total centralized load-responsive stand-by systems to curtail fuel consumption and operating costs.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper outlines previous art in steering systems and highlights the design concepts required to adapt the steering function to load sensitive variable flow-pressure circuitry. Since the steering function power demands are normally low for corrective maneuvers, it is ideally suited to the environment of a central load-sensitive system. The general concept of a load-sensing steering valve and its relative design role to the other system components will be developed, emphasizing standard meter-in load-sensing technology. The possible new “feathered” and “absolute” type systems are introduced.</div>
Toxicity of pesticides to aquatic microorganisms: A review (2001)

Microorganisms contribute significantly to primary production, nutrient cycling, and decomposition in estuarine eco-systems; therefore, detrimental effects of pesticides on microbial species may have subsequent impacts on higher trophic levels. Pesticides may affect estuarine microorganisms via spills, runoff, and drift. Both the structure and the function of microbial communities may be impaired by pesticide toxicity. Pesticides may also be metabolized or bioaccumulated by microorganisms. Mechanisms of toxicity vary, depending on the type of pesticide and the microbial species exposed. Herbicides are generally most toxic to phototrophic microorganisms, exhibiting toxicity by disrupting photosynthesis. Atrazine is the most widely used and most extensively studied herbicide. Toxic effects of organophosphate and organochlorine insecticides on microbial species have also been demonstrated, although their mechanisms of toxicity in such nontarget species remain unclear. There is a great deal of variability in the toxicity of even a single pesticide among microbial species. When attempting to predict the toxicity of pesticides in estuarine ecosystems, effects of pesticide mixtures and interactions with nutrients should be considered. The toxicity of pesticides to aquatic microorganisms, especially bacteria and protozoa, is an area of research requiring further study.
Recovery of communicative functions after prolonged traumatic coma. (1978)

Fifteen patients with prolonged coma after craniocerebral injury were observed for a year or more, and their communicative functions were evaluated. Nine of them showed a considerable degree of recovery, while 6 remained in a vegative state. Of the 9 with recovery, 6 showed complete recovery of semantic functions, while 3 remained with aphasic deficits. Eight out of these 9 remained dysarthric. Communicative recovery began as late as 5.7 months after injury, and it roughly paralleled recovery in locomotion and A.D.L. Restlessness and sweating were favorable prognostic factors. Excessive salivation, snout reflex, corneomandibular reflex, retractory nystagmus and stereotypic movements were unfavorable. The 8 patients who remained dysarthric showed marked diminution of their expiratory and inspiratory reserves, and of their forced vital capacity.
Overview of deformable mirror technologies for adaptive optics and astronomy (2012)

From the ardent bucklers used during the Syracuse battle to set fire to Romans’ ships to more contemporary piezoelectric deformable mirrors widely used in astronomy, from very large voice coil deformable mirrors considered in future Extremely Large Telescopes to very small and compact ones embedded in Multi Object Adaptive Optics systems, this paper aims at giving an overview of Deformable Mirror technology for Adaptive Optics and Astronomy. First the main drivers for the design of Deformable Mirrors are recalled, not only related to atmospheric aberration compensation but also to environmental conditions or mechanical constraints. Then the different technologies available today for the manufacturing of Deformable Mirrors will be described, pros and cons analyzed. A review of the Companies and Institutes with capabilities in delivering Deformable Mirrors to astronomers will be presented, as well as lessons learned from the past 25 years of technological development and operation on sky. In conclusion, perspective will be tentatively drawn for what regards the future of Deformable Mirror technology for Astronomy.

Deep learning of binary hash codes for fast image retrieval (2015)

Approximate nearest neighbor search is an efficient strategy for large-scale image retrieval. Encouraged by the recent advances in convolutional neural networks (CNNs), we propose an effective deep learning framework to generate binary hash codes for fast image retrieval. Our idea is that when the data labels are available, binary codes can be learned by employing a hidden layer for representing the latent concepts that dominate the class labels. The utilization of the CNN also allows for learning image representations. Unlike other supervised methods that require pair-wised inputs for binary code learning, our method learns hash codes and image representations in a point-wised manner, making it suitable for large-scale datasets. Experimental results show that our method outperforms several state-of-the-art hashing algorithms on the CIFAR-10 and MNIST datasets. We further demonstrate its scalability and efficacy on a large-scale dataset of 1 million clothing images.
Volatile components of aroma hops (Humulus lupulus L.) commonly used in beer brewing (2011)

The essential oils from seven different aroma (finishing) varieties of hops (Humulus lupulus L.), “Cascade”, “Hallertauer”, “Northern Brewer”, “Saaz”, “Sterling”, “Vanguard”, and “Willamette”, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. A total of 98 compounds were identified with myrcene and α-humulene dominating the profiles. “Cascade” and “Northern Brewer” were rich in monoterpene hydrocarbons, chiefly myrcene, while sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, mostly α-humulene, dominated “Hallertauer”, “Saaz”, “Sterling”, and “Vanguard”. “Willamette” had an even distribution of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes.

A Critical Review of Machine Loading Problem in Flexible Manufacturing System (2015)

Production planning is the foremost task for manufacturing firms to deal with, especially adopting Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) as the manufacturing strategy for production seeking an optimal balance between productivity-flexibility requirements. Production planning in FMS provides a solution to problems regarding part type selection: machine grouping, production ratio, resource allocation and loading problem. These problems need to be solved optimally for maximum utilization of resources. Optimal solution to these problems has been a focus of attention in production and manufacturing, industrial and academic research since a number of decades. Evolution of new optimization techniques, software, technology, machines and computer languages provides the scope of a better optimal solution to the existing problems. Thus there remains a need of research to solve the problem with latest tools and techniques for higher optimal use of available resources. As an objective, the researchers need to reduce the computational time and cost, complexity of the problem, solution approach viz. general or customized, better user friendly communication with machine, higher freedom to select the desired objective(s) type(s) for optimal solution to the problem. As an approach to the solution to the problem, a researcher first needs to go for an exhaustive literature review, where the researcher needs to find the research gaps, compare and analyze the tools and techniques used, number of objectives considered for optimization and need, and scope of research for the research problem. The present study is a review paper analyzing the research gaps, approach and techniques used, scope of new optimization techniques or any other research, objectives considered and validation approaches for loading problems of production planning in FMS.
Zauber der Basler Brunnen (1971)

Wo er heute hochaufragend in befremdlicher Umgebung steht, hielt Basel freitags seinen wöchentlichen Fischmarkt ab, was dem damals und bis zum Bau der Marktgasse (1888) geschlossenen Platz seinen Namen gab — und damit auch dem Brunnen. Der Sekretär der venezianischen Gesandtschaft am Basler Kirchenkonzil schrieb 1433 in sein erhaltenes Tagebuch: «Ebenso ein Platz, wo man die Fische verkauft und ein sehr großer (!) Brunnen mit unserer lieben Frau und zwei Heiligen darauf, worein die Fischer ihre Kästen tun, wenn der Tag dafür da ist.» Und so blieb es auch — bis weit in unser Jahrhundert hinein. Niklaus Stoecklin, der Basler Künstler, hat das in einem reizvollen Bild farbig festgehalten. Kaum noch lebendig im Andenken der Basler ist der kleine Fischmarktbrunnen geblieben. Er stand von 1615 und bis 1850 zwischen dem großen Fischmarktbrunnen und dem Eingang zur verschwundenen Kronengasse. Von 1850 an erhob er sich an der Mauer gegen den Birsig, welche dort die — heutige — Einmündung der Marktgasse vom Markt her zum Fischmarkt abschloß. Mit dem Bau der Marktgasse im Jahre 1888 verschwand dieser kleine Brunnen für immer. Künstlerisch besonders wertvoll war er nicht mit seinem Neptun im Lederwams zuoberst.

Viewing angle enhanced integral imaging display by using a high refractive index medium (2011)

In the integral imaging system, the viewing angle is limited by the size and focal length of the elemental lens. In this regard, we propose a new method for the viewing angle enhancement in the InIm. The proposed method employs a refractive index medium between the elemental image plane and the lens array. The viewing angle enhanced InIm display is analyzed based on the imaging terms. The experimental result shows that the viewing angle is doubled.

A review of pancreatic islet autotransplantation. (1998)

The current literature suggests that following either total or subtotal pancreatectomy for chronic pancreatitis, the intraportal infusion of the purified or unpurified pancreatic digest will render approximately 50% of patients insulin independent. Early reports suggested that such a procedure might result in hepatic infarction and coagulopathies, but there have been no such complications in the last decade, suggesting that autotransplantation is now associated with low morbidity and mortality. There is an acknowledged subsequent rate of graft failure, but successful long-term insulin independence has now been documented for more than 10 years (Table 1). All centers undertaking total pancreatectomy for benign conditions should examine the possibility of islet autotransplantation, since even a background level of glucose responsiveness is likely to facilitate postoperative management considerably in this difficult group of patients. The process of pancreas dispersion and islet purification should probably be performed in specialist centers with a good understanding of the problems outlined above. While the transport of the pancreas and islets to and from such centers is possible in theory, we suggest that referral of the patient to a specialist center experienced in the surgical technique, transplantation and postoperative management of these patients might be more appropriate.
Kalman Filtering Approach to Blind Equalization (1993)

Digital communication systems suffer from the channel distortion problem which introduces errors due to intersymbol interference. The solution to this problem is provided by equalizers which use a training sequence to adapt to the channel. However in many cases in which a training sequence is unfeasible, the channel must be adapted blindly. Most of the blind equalization algorithms known so far have problems of convergence to local minima. Our intention is to offer an alternative approach by using extended Kalman filtering and hidden Markov models. They seem to yield more efficient algorithms which take the statistics of the transmitted sequence into consideration. The theoretical development of these new algorithms is discussed in this thesis. Also these algorithms have been simulated under different conditions. The results of simulations and comparisons with existing systems are provided. The models for simulations are presented as MATLAB codes.
