Physical and Kinetic Evidence for an Association between Sucrose-Phosphate Synthase and Sucrose-Phosphate Phosphatase (1997)

The possible formation of a multienzyme complex between sucrose (Suc)-phosphate synthase (SPS) and Suc-phosphate phosphatase (SPP) was examined by measuring the rates of Suc-6-phosphate (Suc-6-P) synthesis and hydrolysis in mixing experiments with partially purified enzymes from spinach (Spinacia oleracea) and rice (Oryza sativa) leaves. The addition of SPP to SPS stimulated the rate of Suc-6-P synthesis. SPS inhibited the hydrolysis of exogenous Suc-6-P by SPP when added in the absence of its substrate (i.e. UDP-glucose) but stimulated SPP activity when the SPS substrates were present and used to generate Suc-6-P directly in the reaction. Results from isotope-dilution experiments suggest that Suc-6-P was channeled between SPS and SPP. A portion of the SPS activity comigrated with SPP during native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, providing physical evidence for an enzyme-enzyme interaction. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that SPS and SPP associate to form a multienzyme complex.

Melting and High-Temperature Electrical Resistance of Gold under Pressure (1965)

The electrical resistance of gold was measured over the temperature range 30\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C to the melting point and over a pressure range 0-70 kbar. At constant pressure, a sudden twofold increase in resistance sharply indicated the melting point and was used to determine the solid-liquid phase line to 70 kbar. The experimental melting curve has an initial slope, 5.91\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C/kbar, in very good agreement with Clapeyron's equation, and has a form satisfying a Simon's equation with a coefficient $c=2.2\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.1$. The electrical resistance data show a decrease in the temperature coefficient of resistivity at higher pressures, while the resistance at the melting point appears to be a constant independent of pressure.

A non-additive thermodynamic formalism and applications to dimension theory of hyperbolic dynamical systems (1996)

Abstract A non-additive version of the thermodynamic formalism is developed. This allows us to obtain lower and upper bounds for the dimension of a broad class of Cantor-like sets. These are constructed with a decreasing sequence of closed sets that may satisfy no asymptotic behavior. Moreover, they can be coded by arbitrary symbolic dynamics, and the geometry of the construction may depend on all the symbolic past. Applications include estimates of dimension for hyperbolic sets of maps that need not be differentiable.
Enlargement of Skull Fracture in Childhood Due to Cerebral Herniation (1972)

Six cases in which cerebral herniation was a pertinent feature of growing skull fractures in children are presented. While the authors agree that dural and arachnoidal tears are necessary for the inception of the growing skull fracture, they wish to emphasize the frequent involvement of herniated brain tissue in the fracture. Angiography is essential in the preoperative evaluation of these patients, and surgery must be planned accordingly when cerebral tissue is involved.
OTA-Based Logarithmic Circuit for Arbitrary Input Signal and Its Application (2015)

In this paper, a new design procedure has been proposed for realization of logarithmic function via three phases: 1) differentiation; 2) division; and 3) integration for any arbitrary analog signal. All the basic building blocks, i.e., differentiator, divider, and integrator, are realized by operational transconductance amplifier, a current mode device. Realization of exponential, power law, and hyperbolic function as the design examples claims that the proposed synthesis procedure has the potential to design a log-based nonlinear system in a systematic and hierarchical manner. The performance of all the proposed circuits has been verified with SPICE simulation.
Tuberculosis among Health Care Workers (1995)

The risk of tuberculosis among health care workers was substantial in the era before antibiotics1 but declined rapidly after 1950 because of the lower incidence of the disease in the population and the advent of effective therapy. These changes resulted in the relaxation of infection-control practices in hospitals, if not outright neglect of such practices. Over the past decade, two factors have profoundly altered views about the risk of tuberculosis in health care workers. The first is the resurgence of the disease. Between 1985 and 1991, the incidence of all forms of tuberculosis increased by 24 to 34 percent in . . .
Farsi Font Recognition in Document Images Using PPH Features (2011)

In this paper a new approach for font recognition of Farsi document images is presented. In this approach using two features PP and H, font and font size of a Farsi document image is recognized. Feature H is related to holes of imaged text document. Feature PP is related to horizontal projection profile of text lines of document image. This approach is applied on 7 widely used Farsi fonts and 7 font sizes. A dataset containing 10*49 images and another dataset including 110 images were used for testing and recognition rate more than 93.7% obtained. Images were made using paint software and were noiseless and without skew. This approach is fast and is applicable for other languages that are similar to Farsi, such as Arabic language
Colloidal synthesis of iridium-iron nanoparticles for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution (2017)

Iridium-iron alloy nanoparticles with an average diameter of 2.4 nm have been synthesized by a colloidal synthetic method. By taking advantage of the synergistic effect between Ir and Fe at the molecular level, the as-synthesized IrFe/C catalyst exhibits OER performance with exceptional overpotentials of 278 and 286 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm<sup>−2</sup>in acidic and alkaline condition, respectively.
Optimizing the design of an embedded grating polarizer for infrared polarization light field imaging (2018)

A silica-based embedded aluminum grating polarizer suitable for a near- and mid-infrared light field camera is investigated to fully utilize the direction information recorded by the detector in the light field camera. A grating with good polarizer performance was obtained by using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to simulate and optimize the structural parameters affecting the performance. The optimized structure reaches TM transmission efficiency exceeding 84% and extinction ratios greater than 27.9 dB in the 1.5–5.5 μm band. The optimized grating is suitable for a wide incident angle range of 0°−70° and for infrared polarization light field imaging.
Strain variability of the cell-free proteolytic activity of dairy propionibacteria towards β-casein peptides (1998)

Strain selection of dairy propionibacteria is based on COz' acetate and propionate production. However, another criterion such as proteolytic activity could be of industrial interest for selection of flavor ripening agents. Given that the propionibacteria are variously able to autolyse and that proteolytic activity is mainly intracellularly located, the proteolytic potential was evaluated on the cell-free extracts of 37 dairy propionibacteria strains. The substrate used to detect proteolytic activity was a tryptic/chymotryptic hydrolysate of ~-casein. The evaluation was performed at a temperature of 30 "C and pH of 5.7. The increase in the free NH z groups over a 24 h period was monitored as weil as the evolution of the reversed-phase chromatographie profiles. In addition, for 14 strains, the free amino acids released from the ~-casein peptides were determined. Ali the strains were able to hydrolyze ~-casein peptides. Difference of proteolytic activity was observed among and within the four dairy propionibacteria species. This variability was expressed more in terms of nature of the products released (peptides and free amino acids) than in terms of degree of proteolytic activity. From the results, a strain selection system may be developed using as substrate the tryptic/chymotryptic ~-casein hydrolysate and as criteria the degree of hydrolysis at 24 h and the amount and the nature of free ami no acids released by cellfree ex tracts. Such a selection will give useful data for cheesemakers, especially if characterization of autolytic ability in the cheese environment is also determined.

Investigation of the mutual coherence of laser radiation in the Del'fin-1 facility (1989)

A method is proposed for investigation of the mutual coherence function Γ (x1, x2, τ) of a laser beam on the basis of an analysis of the Fourier transform of a speckle field formed as a result of interaction of laser radiation with a random Gaussian scatterer. The proposed method was used to study the coherence of high-power laser beams at various stages of pulse amplification in the Del'fin-1 facility designed for controlled laser fusion experiments. It was found that when the radiation from a master oscillator in this facility was practically coherent throughout the whole beam, subsequent amplification of a pulse reduced the half-width of the function Γ (x1, x2) to 0.1–0.2 of the beam diameter and this was due to nonlinear effects in the active medium at power densities ~ 1 GW/cm2. A study was also made of the dependence of the function Γ (x1, x2) on the spectral composition of laser radiation.

Software Vulnerability Patch Management with Semi-Markov Decision Process (2013)

Information security incidents frequency has been increasing dramatically, the aim of this study is to analyze the state-space reachability problems through the transition of vulnerable status after the informative system vulnerability exposure.In this research we took into consideration the time factor to analyze the arrival time to reachable states problem discussed in stochastic Petri nets.The mean arrival time and variance of the process between starting from an initial state and arriving at reachable states.We will therefore elaborate a novel model based on the semi-Markov stochastic Petri nets model for analyzing the period between the exposure of the vulnerability and the completion of its patch.We use the semi-Markov process to analyze the state-space reachability problems of the stochastic Petri nets, resulting in a novel model for software vulnerability patch management.Moreover, we include also the concept of discounted multi-objective semi-Markov decision process to obtain the total of the efficient extreme point set.
Directional and Direct Cloning Strategy for High-Throughput Generation of Recombinant Baculoviruses (2006)

The baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) has become one of the most widely used systems for routine protein expression. We have developed an improved strategy to clone foreign genes directionally and directly into the baculovirus genome vector via a one-step procedure to generate recombinant viruses in a week. In this work, we constructed a host strain Escherichia coli DH10BacHB1.1, which contains the modified baculovirus shuttle genome vector pHBMBacmid1.1 for the cloning vector. The treated PCR products of foreign genes were ligated with the Bsu36I-digested vector. Then Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells were transfected directly with the ligation mixture. Using this method, the DsRed fluorescence protein and mannanase genes have been cloned in the baculovirus genome and expressed in the Sf9 cells. This strategy not only provides a means for high-throughput construction of recombinant baculoviruses, but also offers an idea of constructing other large plasmids and DNA virus-based expression vectors.
Effect of Gray Fabric Properties on Flame Resistance of Knitted Fabric (2003)

In this study, knitted fabrics that have been used extensively in recent years are chosen to investigate the effects of their properties on flame resistance. Physical parameters (fiber type and composition, yarn count, yarn twist coefficient, fabric design, weight per unit area, air permeability, fabric thickness, cover factor, loop density) that affect fabric flammability are defined and an experimental study is designed. The burning behavior of the all fabrics is evaluated using the BS 5438 vertical flammability test method because its results are very similar to real fabric burning behavior and it is more responsive than other test methods. Finally, experimental results are evaluated according to a MANOVA analysis using an SPSS statistical program. How and at which level knitted fabric param eters affect a fabric's burning behavior is defined, and regression models of these parameters are obtained. Using these regression models, the burning behavior of knitted fabrics is evaluated, and it is possible to rank them according to their burning character istics.
Topography from Single Radar Images (1984)

A mathematical theory and a corresponding numerical procedure have been developed to produce digital topography from radar images as digital photometric arrays. Thus, as radargrammetry is to photogrammetry, so radarclinometry is to photoclinometry. Photoclinometry encompasses a fundamental indeterminacy principle even for terrain that is homogeneous in normal albedo, because the surface normal consistent with a given reflected specific intensity is not unique. A geometric locus of such normal directions is implied, which generates a surface. For microwave backscatter, in specific application to radarclinometry, this surface is a cone whose half-angle is the incidence angle, whose axis contains the radar, and whose apex coincides with the terrain point. Although the indeterminacy can be removed if a properly directed profile of ground truth is available as a constraint, such is seldom the case. In its absence, an auxiliary assumption, such as that the strike line runs perpendicular to the illumination line, is needed. If metric integrity is a goal, then this is an absurd assumption. Herein, "the hypothesis of local cylindricity" has been assumed, a premise regarding the nature of topographic curvature that seems more realistic and that makes possible the production of topography as a set of parallel line integrals.
Nutrition and In Vitro Culture of Insect Parasitoids (1986)

toward developmcnt of in vitro culture methods for several species. These methods have been used to examine qualitative and quantitative nutritional and dietary requirements as well as nutritional biochemistry. Moreover, recent investigations indicate that for a few paras ito ids continuous artificial culture may be at hand. Further improvement of in vitro techniques, however, and their successful application in biological control will depend on the acquisition of a far greater knowledge of parasitoid physiology, nutrition, genetics, and behavior.
A novel setup approach for helical tomotherapy in head and neck cancer: A case report (2013)

Head and neck cancers that are associated with high-risk factors have a poor prognosis. In such patients, post-operative radiochemotherapy is mandatory. The present study describes the case of a 71-year-old high-risk head and neck cancer patient who was not able to tolerate the supine position for the radiotherapy setup. A lateral immobilization with a head mask and a vacuum cushion was performed. The patient underwent daily computed tomography (CT)-guided radiation therapy [image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT)]. At nine months post-radiotherapy, the patient had no xerostomia and no swallowing dysfunction. However, the patient suffered a local recurrence and succumbed due to bleeding of the tumor a number of weeks after the recurrence. A recalculation of the actual delivered dose, taking the daily delivered dose into account, was performed. The recurrence occurred within the high-dose region. In selected cases of patients with head and neck cancers who are unable to tolerate the supine position, lateral positioning and high precision treatment is possible using daily IGRT.
The mystery of myopia (2003)

Published data from all parts of the world show that myopia is rare before school age, gradually increases during school life and reaches its highest level of prevalence during the years of most intense study at university. It is widely held that continuous reading harms the eyes, but none of the attempts made so far to reduce accommodative fatigue by introducing pauses during reading and teaching, eye exercises, etc. have been successful in reducing the number of children who develop myopia. However, we should not exclude the possibility that the introduction into schools of better tables, better lighting, more breaks and more sport has not only benefited the general health of children, mentally as well as physically, but has also decreased the development and progression of myopia. More research in this area is needed, but relevant protocols are difficult to establish. The aetiology of myopia is multifactorial and both genes and environment play important roles. Twin studies indicate a strong genetic influence and a weak environmental impact, while extreme myopia prevalences among selected population groups (university students) point to the opposite.
Progress in the Victim Reform Movement: No Longer the "Forgotten Victim" (1990)

lic awareness of the crime victim's problems and needs.By 1980, numerous organizations were advocating and implementing victim assistance programs. 3 In 1981, President Ronald Reagan proclaimed the week of April 19th "National Victims' Rights Week."4The growing concern for victims' rights, commonly referred to as the "victims' movement," also prompted President Reagan to establish the President's Task Force on Victims of Crime to examine problems confronted by victims and to suggest improvements in the treatment of victims. 5 In December 1982, the Task Force published its report which included specific proposals that would further the interests of victims and help alleviate the problems encountered by victims when confronting the criminal justice system. 6 During the same year, Congress passed the Federal Victim and Witness Protection Act of 19827 which, among other things, provided for victim restitution, use of victim impact statements at sentencing in federal cases, and victim and witness protection.Two years later, Congress passed the Victims of Crime Act of 1984,8 which established a victim compensation account funded by fines assessed in federal criminal convictions.As a result of the need for a continuation of these unprecedented achievements in the area of victims' rights, the United States Department of Justice granted funds to the Criminal Justice Section of the American Bar Association to commission a series of articles on victims' rights. 9Those articles, written by distinwider community for solace and support, they are often ignored, treated insensitively, or, worst of all, blamed for their plight.Proclamation No.
From Embodiment Generation to Virtual Prototyping (1999)

This paper shows how, by harnessing recent technological advances in the field of ObjectOriented Physical Systems Modelling [7], much greater ease of use, rigour and computational efficiency in design constraint management can be achieved [1]. Additionally, this approach provides &quot;virtual prototype&quot; animated dynamic models of the resulting design artefacts, for subsequent evaluation and optimisation. These have built-in design constraint checking, ensuring that at every instant of a simulation, no limits have been exceeded, whilst the model behaves realistically according to the relevant physical laws
Global knowledge about local dependencies in an integrated database environment (2002)

Modeling concepts and methodologies used for the representation of virtual entities in an object-oriented global data manager of an integrated database environment are considered. These concepts strive to encapsulate knowledge, needed when unifying heterogeneously modeled entities, into a number of object types. With the aid of this knowledge, local dependencies can be made visible to the global data manager. The global data manager is thereby in a position to consistently evaluate query requests posed against the set of globally known virtual entities. The author focuses on the resolution of local dependencies emanating from differences in the local representation of semantically equivalent information portions. This information is unified at the global data manager to form global virtual entities.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Instrument control enhancements using Microsoft Windows 3.0 (2003)

The various ways of controlling instrumentation over the IEEE-488 interface using a personal computer in a Microsoft Windows 3.x environment are described. Instrument and software manufacturers have employed the data transfer capabilities within Windows and have added software and drivers so that Windows applications can be used in an instrumentation environment. The dynamic data exchange (DDE) and the dynamic link library (DLL) capabilities of Windows are discussed, together with methods by which programmers can employ these tools to gather and transfer data. DDE protocol commands are summarized, and a DDE flowchart example is provided.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
