Experimental Investigation of Modified Cast-cored Blades Having Hollow Tip Sections (1957)

Memorandum presenting the development of fabrication techniques to provide cast-cored turbine blades with hollow tip sections. Two types of modified cast-cored blades that provided an 11-percent weight reduction from a fully cast-cored blade and a 13-percent weight reduction from a standard uncooled blade were investigated in a turbojet engine modified for air-cooling. Results regarding the experimental heat-transfer, temperature comparison with other cooled-blade configurations, calculated and experimental blade temperatures, cooling-air pressure drop, and structural reliability are provided.
Highly compliant and self-tightening docking modules for precise and fast connection of self-reconfigurable robots (2004)

This paper describes a new docking system, called Compliant-And-Self-Tightening (CAST), developed as an effective and efficient connector for joining and releasing modules of self-reconfigurable or metamorphic robotic systems. CAST has been successfully implemented in CONRO where its highly compliant and passive features have allowed a considerable ease of execution of a variety of docking algorithms, while using no additional energy for docking and negligible amount of energy for undocking. Development of CAST was motivated by observing the difficulty of implementation of an earlier less compliant docking system designed by the authors for CONRO.
Expression of the Neural Recognition Molecule L1 by Cultured Neural Cells is influenced by K<sup>+</sup> and the Glutamate Receptor Agonist NMDA (1992)

To investigate the influence of neuronal activity on the expression of neural recognition molecules, cultures of neural cell lines and dissociated cells of early postnatal mouse cerebellum were maintained in the presence of elevated concentrations of K+ and the glutamate agonist N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA). Levels of expression of the neural adhesion molecules L1 and N-CAM at the cell surface were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Expression of L1 was up-regulated in neuroblastoma N2A cells after 1 day of maintenance in 40 and 60 mM K+, but not in phaeochromocytoma PC12 cells. Expression levels of N-CAM and antigens recognized by the monoclonal antibody A2B5 or by polyclonal antibodies to crude membrane fractions of liver were not significantly altered by elevated K+ concentrations in these two cell lines. In monolayer cultures of early postnatal mouse cerebellum, an increase of 60% in expression of L1, but not N-CAM or A2B5, was seen at 20 and 40 mM K+. This increase in L1 expression was specifically inhibitable by the Ca2+ channel blocker nicardipine. NMDA at a concentration of 100 microM increased levels of L1, but not of N-CAM. This increase was inhibitable by the NMDA antagonists 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate and MK-801, but not significantly by the kainate/quisqualate antagonist 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione. The increase in L1 expression at higher K+ concentrations was not inhibitable by the NMDA antagonists, indicating that the K+-mediated increase in L1 expression is not due to release of glutamate by cerebellar neurons. These observations indicate that compounds influencing neuronal membrane properties, and thus neuronal excitability, are capable of regulating the expression of L1. In a more general context, these findings suggest that previously observed changes in synaptic connectivity in situ, resulting from activity-dependent fine tuning of neuronal morphology, may be mediated by alterations in the expression of recognition molecules.

A comparison of techniques for magnetotelluric response function estimation (1989)

Spectral analysis of the time‐varying horizontal magnetic and electric field components yields the magnetotelluric (MT) impedance tensor. This frequency dependent 2×2 complex tensor can be examined for details which are diagnostic of the electrical conductivity distribution in the Earth within the relevant (frequency dependent) inductive scale length of the surface observation point. As such, precise and accurate determination of this tensor from the electromagnetic time series is fundamental to successful interpretation of the derived responses. In this paper, several analysis techniques are applied to the same data set from one of the EMSLAB Lincoln Line sites. Two subsets of the complete data set were selected, on the basis of geomagnetic activity, to test the methods in the presence of differing signal‐to‐noise ratios for varying signals and noises. Illustrated by this comparison are the effects of both statistical and bias errors on the estimates from the diverse methods. It is concluded that robust processing methods should become adopted for the analysis of MT data, and that whenever possible remote reference fields should be used to avoid bias due to uncorrelated noise contributions.
A Milestone in Biomineralization: From a Structural Assessment to a Genetic Concept of Mineral Formation. Or How the Enzyme Silicatein Forms a Solid Silica Rod (2013)

Like all structural biomaterials in Metazoa also the spicules from sponges are hierarchically organized and biofabricated. With the exception of the spicules the structural complexity of the metazoan bioskeletons can be traced back from the millimeter-scale only to the micrometer- or submicrometer-scale, while the biological and/or genetic basis controlling the synthesis of these skeletons and their building blocks remained unknown. In contrast, from the spicules of the siliceous sponges the key molecules and the molecular-biological processes, involved in their formation, have been elucidated in the last few years. Here we summarize the different levels of molecular, biological and structural hierarchies that are controlling the synthesis of the picturesquely and intricately architectured spicules. The basic enzymatic/proteinaceous machinery that facilitates the polycondensation of silicate to the bio-silica scaffold that compose the spicules are the silicateins and their interacting/mature proteins. Two isoforms of silicatein, silicatein-α and silicatein-β, have been described that catalyzes the polymerization of ortho-silicate to polymeric bio-silica enzymatically. Silicatein-α together with silicatein-β forms pentameric units that continue to grow in a linear pattern. The silicatein-interacting protein, silintaphin-1, stabilizes the initially formed silicatein fractals [pentameric strands]; silintaphin-2 provides Ca2+ ions to the galectins that are required for the growth of the spicules. The primary product of the enzymatic reaction forming bio-silica is a polymeric network that is translucent. This bio-silica polymer undergoes hardening via a controlled process of syneresis. During this reaction the bio-silica acquires its characteristic morphology, form and shape. Taking together, this review attempts to overcome the frontiers in the understanding of the different levels of hierarchies, genetic, biological and structural and, by that, contributes to a rational fabrication of new bioinspired, functional material which is guided by a genetic blueprint.
Functional Analysis of the Guanylyl Cyclase Type D Signaling System in the Olfactory Epithelium (2009)

The mammalian olfactory system recognizes a wide range of chemical stimuli. The majority of cells in the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) use a cAMP-mediated signaling system to transduce odor signals. However, a subset of MOE neurons instead expresses components of a cGMP signaling cascade, including the receptor guanylyl cyclase GC-D and the cyclic nucleotide-gated channel subunit CNGA3. We used a combination of molecular biological, physiological, and imaging approaches to characterize this neuronal population. Neurons expressing GC-D show excitatory responses to the natriuretic peptide hormones uroguanylin and guanylin, as well as to stimuli present in urine, that are dependent on both GC-D and CNGA3. Though all GC-D-expressing neurons are highly sensitive to these stimuli, individual cells are differentially tuned to either one or both of the peptides. Together, these findings suggest that neurons expressing GC-D are part of a specialized olfactory subsystem that is responsive to semiochemicals.
Method for Detecting Step-shaped Wear on Contact Strips by Measuring Catenary Vibration (2011)

Certain factors such as arcing between the contact wire and pantograph contact strip cause contact strips wear. Once local wear occurs, step-shaped wear patterns are highly likely developed. A contact strip with this step-shaped wear may lead to accidents such as contact wire breakage. To prevent such accidents, the authors have developed a method for detecting step-shaped wear on contact strips by measuring the vibration of the contact wire. This paper describes this new method and some results of experimental testing.
Pareto Solution Strategies for the Industrial Car Sequencing Problem (2013)

The industrial car sequencing problem (CSP) consists of determining the order in which automobiles must be produced on an assembly line, considering the options for each, obeying the assembly constraints and taking into account the objectives of the production environment. The goal of this chapter is extending the treatment of the CSP from the Pareto point of view, using the Pareto Memetic Strategy for Multiple objective Optimization (PMSMO) and genetic immune strategy for a multiple-objective optimization (GISMOO) methods. The chapter aims to carry out a performance comparison of the well-known algorithms in the literature, and demonstrates the contribution of a Pareto treatment as is offered by PMSMO or GISMOO for a production manager's choice of schedule in an industrial context.
Adiabatic cooling in spin glasses (1985)

Measurements of the magnetocaloric effect in two different spin glasses, CuMn and LaGdAl2 are presented and compared with the predictions of equilibrium thermodynamics. It is shown that LaGdAl2 is an extremely reversible system that exhibits a relatively large amount of adiabatic cooling below TG and very little irreversibility. CuMn, on the other hand, is much more irreversible and a definite observation of adiabatic cooling has not been made. It is proposed on the basis of these results that the spin-glass phenomenon is fundamentally an equilibrium one that is often obscured by secondary irreversible properties.
Determination of hoof mass and centre of mass from morphological measurements (2001)

Determination of net joint moments and powers requires accurate measurements of mass and centre of mass (COM) for the limb segments. The objective of this research was to develop regression equations for calculating mass and COM of the hoof segment that are applicable over a wide range of hoof morphologies. Ninety-one hooves (mean +/- s.d. 0.99 +/- 0.50 kg) were weighed and the 3-dimensional COM determined using a mass balance technique. Ten morphological variables were measured and used as independent variables in linear regressions with dependent variables of mass and centre of mass. The regression equation for mass was dependent upon coronet circumference, lateral height, solar length, solar width, heel height, toe height and base circumference (r2 = 0.978). Mediolateral COM was dependent only on solar length (r2 = 0.874). Dorsopalmar COM depended only upon solar length (r2 = 0.792) and vertical COM was defined only by lateral height (r2 = 0.377). Midlateral COM, measured at the midhoof wall along the tubules, was found to depend on coronet circumference, lateral height, toe length and toe height (r2 = 0.414). The large sample size and the inclusion of a variety of hoof masses and morphologies allow these results to be generalised to a wide range of the equine population. It was concluded that the mass and COM of the hoof segment can be estimated to a high degree of accuracy based on easily obtained morphological measurements.

Cloning and Characterization of a Novel Trimethoprim-Resistant Dihydrofolate Reductase from a Nosocomial Isolate of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> CM.S2 (IMCJ1454) (2005)

A novel gene, dfrG, encoding a trimethoprim (TMP)-resistant dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR, designated S3DHFR) was cloned from a clinical isolate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Escherichia coli expressing dfrG was highly resistant to TMP. Recombinant S3DHFR exhibited DHFR activity that was not inhibited by TMP.
TEST AND EVALUATION OF ECCENTRIC LOADER BCT (BREAKAWAY CABLE TERMINAL) GUARDRAIL TERMINALS. VOLUME 2. APPENDIX (1985)

The project included the test and evaluation of two W-beam guardrail terminal systems. The two terminals, while quite similar, are characterized by a 4.0-ft (1.5-m) flare offset and a 1.5-ft (0.5-m) flare offset. Both designs were subjected to the 4-test terminal matrix of NCHRP Report 230 and successful results are reported. This report (Volume 2) contains the full-scale crash test reports in Appendix A. Appendix B contains a description of design concepts conceived during the project that were not evaluated by crash test or developed in this project.

The Urbach slopes \ensuremath{\sigma} of optical absorption edges and the glass transition temperatures ${T}_{g}$ in pseudobinary chalcogenide alloy glasses with 0\ensuremath{\le}x\ensuremath{\le}0.6 containing predominantly tetrahedral building blocks have been studied as the resistance to shear of the building blocks is varied through the critical composition x=0.4. The composition dependences of \ensuremath{\sigma} and ${T}_{g}$ are nearly parallel, with softening occurring above x=0.4, in agreement with theoretical expectations. Chemical trends in Urbach slopes of other chalcogenide alloy glasses and liquids are discussed within the framework of constraint theory and a simple statistical model.
A rat model of picornavirus-induced airway infection and inflammation (2009)

Attenuated mengovirus caused a respiratory infection in rats with several days of viral shedding accompanied by a lower airway inflammatory response consisting of neutrophils and lymphocytes. These features suggest that mengovirus-induced airway infection in rodents could be a useful model to define mechanisms of rhinovirus-induced airway inflammation in humans.
Evaluation of inherent differences between African American and white skin surface properties using subjective and objective measures. (2004)

Conflicting data have been published on the inherent differences in skin surface properties among various ethnic groups, though there is a widespread perception that differences exist. This study included subjective and objective assessments of skin surface properties in African American and white subjects. A dermatologist conducted visual assessments of photodamage and irritation. Instrumentation was employed to perform objective measurements of skin surface sebum level, pH, moisture content, and barrier function. In addition, resistance of skin to chemical challenge as a measure of barrier integrity was assessed in a subset of the populations. Results showed differences in photodamage and hyperpigmentation between the 2 ethnic groups tested, but no significant differences between the 2 groups were seen in the results of instrumental measurements for sebum, pH, corneometry (skin moisture), or transepidermal water loss (barrier function). These data help fill the gap in knowledge about photoaging-related differences in the skin of various ethnic groups, especially in textural and pigmentation parameters, as well as increase the knowledge base of differences in objective measures.
Occlusion of Choriocapillaris in Primary Nonfamilial Amyloidosis (1971)

THE IMPORTANCE of the choriocapillaris to the retina is unquestionable, and a variety of retinal degenerations have been ascribed to choroidal ischemia. Yet few disease processes selectively occlude the choriocapillaris, sparing the retinal vessels. Consequently, the effect of occlusion of the choriocapillaris on the relatively normal human retina has been poorly defined. The present case illustrates an unusual situation in which the choriocapillaris was occluded by the deposits of amyloid, but the retinal circulation was spared. The patient suffered from primary nonfamilial amyloidosis and died of renal failure. The eyes were obtained postmortem and were studied by light and electron microscopy. <h3>Report of a Case</h3><h3>Clinical Data.</h3> —On a routine physical examination, a 61-year-old white man was found to have hepatomegaly. The liver was firm and smooth, extending for 4 inches below the right costal margin. Liver biopsy was done, and the specimen showed amyloid deposits in the hepatic parenchymal
