Originalarbeiten (1981)

Es wird eine Methode zur Anreicherung des Isotops, 196Hg durch isotopenselektive Pholooxydation von Quecksilberdampf beschrieben. Sie beruht auf der Benutzung von Niederdruck-Gasentladungslampen, die mit 198Hg gefüllt sind und so betrieben werden, daß eine schwache Selbstabsorption auftritt, und auf der Anwendung einer Filterschicht mit natürlichem Quecksilberdampf. Im günstigsten Falle wurde das Verhältnis der Häufigkeiten der Isotope 202Hg/196Hg vom natürlichen Wert 200 auf 1,5 gebracht. Die maximale Isotopenhäufigkeit von 196Hg im Reaktionsprodukt betrug über 5 Atotn-%.
Pharmacokinetics of pralidoxime chloride and its correlation to therapeutic efficacy against diisopropyl fluorophosphate intoxication in rats. (1988)

A two compartment system is used to study the therapeutic efficacy of pralidoxime chloride (1) along with a suitable pretreatment against diisopropyl fluorophosphate (2) intoxication in rats. The data were analyzed by standard techniques. Though thiamine hydrochloride pretreatment prolonged the biological half-life of 1 but it failed to increase the protective efficacy of 1, on the other hand sodium hydrogen carbonate pretreatment augmented the protective action of 1 without altering its biological half-life appreciably, through increased distribution of 1 into tissue compartment.
The use of scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithms to identification garbage images based on product label (2017)

Garbage has become a serious problem, especially in major cities. Garbage basically contain elements of organics and non-organic mixed. In a large volume, the separation of organic and non-organic become difficult jobs and longer if done conventionally. Separation is the identification of objects with one another to be classified. Along with the development of technology, it is possible to design intelligent machines capable of identifying organic and non-organic objects, then the machine can separate quickly. Attributes organic and non-organic element can be recognized from the product label and can be a special characteristic. In this experiment, the algorithm SIFT (Scale invariant Feature Transform) to extract the characteristics of the image garbage label. This technique makes use keypoint or image features garbage properly. Based on the experimental results, the method of identification of organic and non-organic using SIFT algorithm gives results with an average accuracy of 89.9%. With a high level of complexity of a large garbage collection, the performance results including good category.
Gesture-based interaction (2012)

Today, smart phones with touchscreens and sensors are the predominant, fastest growing class of consumer computing devices. However, because these devices are used in diverse situations, and have unique capabilities and form factors, they also raise new user interface challenges, and at the same time, offer great opportunities for impactful HCI research.
Efficient Lymphoreticular Prion Propagation Requires PrP<sup>c</sup>in Stromal and Hematopoietic Cells (2001)

In most prion diseases, infectivity accumulates in lymphoreticular organs early after infection. Defects in hematopoietic compartments, such as impaired B-cell maturation, or in stromal compartments, such as abrogation of follicular dendritic cells, can delay or prevent lymphoreticular prion colonization. However, the nature of the compartment in which prion replication takes place is controversial, and it is unclear whether this compartment coincides with that expressing the normal prion protein (PrP(c)). Here we studied the distribution of infectivity in splenic fractions of wild-type and fetal liver chimeric mice carrying the gene that encodes PrP(c) (Prnp) solely on hematopoietic or on stromal cells. We fractionated spleens at various times after intraperitoneal challenge with prions and assayed infectivity by bioassay. Upon high-dose challenge, chimeras carrying PrP(c) on hematopoietic cells accumulated prions in stroma and in purified splenocytes. In contrast, after low-dose challenge ablation of Prnp in either compartment prevented splenic accumulation of infectivity, indicating that optimal prion replication requires PrP(c) expression by both stromal and hematopoietic compartments.
Adaptive compensation of lower order thermal aberrations in concave-convex power oscillators under variable pump conditions (2000)

A Nd:Cr:GSGG concave-convex power oscillator was developed that utilized both an adaptive mirror comprised of spherical and cylindrical optical elements together with a Faraday rotator to dynamically eliminate lower order aberrations (thermal focusing, astigmatism, and bipolar focusing). An adaptively controlled collimating lens corrected for shifts in the mode-waist position. The addition of a polarizer and a reentrant mirror totally eliminated thermal birefringence losses. The techniques developed are attractive in any solid state laser that must work under changing pump power conditions.
Antiallergic Effect of Milk Fermented with Lactic Acid Bacteria in a Murine Animal Model (2007)

The objective of this study was to assess the antiallergic effect of fermented milk prepared, respectively, with Streptococcus thermophilus MC, Lactobacillus acidophilus B, Lactobacillus bulgaricus Lb, L. bulgaricus 448, and Bifidobacterium longum B6. Female BALB/c mice fed fermented milk were immunized intraperitoneally with ovalbumin (OVA)/complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) to evaluate the immune response by observing the secretion of cytokines IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-gamma and serum antibody IgE. The results showed that supplementation with lactic acid bacteria fermented milk did not significantly change the IL-2 spontaneous and OVA-stimulated secretions of splenocytes. However, both spontaneous and OVA-stimulated secretions of splenocytes from mice fed lactic acid bacteria fermented milk showed significantly (P < 0.05) lower levels of IL-4 (Th2 cytokine) than those from OVA/CFA-immunized mice fed non-fermented milk (OVA/CFA-milk group). The spontaneous secretion of IFN-gamma (Th1 cytokine) by splenocytes from mice fed L. bulgaricus 448 or L. bulgaricus Lb fermented milk significantly increased as compared to that from the OVA/CFA-milk group. The results showed that the ratios of IFN-gamma to IL-4 of both spontaneous and OVA-stimulated secretions in splenocytes from mice fed lactic acid bacteria fermented milk increased significantly as compared to that of PBS- or OVA/CFA-milk groups. The serum levels of OVA-specific IgE in fermented milk fed groups, especially the group fed S. thermophilus MC fermented milk, were significantly lower than those in the OVA/CFA-milk group through a 6 week feeding experiment. The results showed that milk fermented with lactic acid bacteria demonstrated in vivo antiallergic effects on OVA/CFA-immunized mice via increasing the secretion ratio of IFN-gamma/IL-4 (Th1/Th2) by splenocytes and decreasing the serum level of OVA-specific IgE.
Optimal Policies for a Multi-Echelon Inventory Problem (1960)

In the last several years there have been a number of papers discussing optimal policies for the inventory problem. Almost without exception these papers are devoted to the determination of optimal purchasing quantities at a single installation faced with some pattern of demand. It has been customary to make the assumption that when the installation in question requests a shipment of stock, this shipment will be delivered in a fixed or perhaps random length of time, but at any rate with a time lag which is independent of the size of the order placed. There are, however, a number of situations met in practice in which this assumption is not a tenable one. An important example arises when there are several installations, say 1, 2, …, N, with installation 1 receiving stock from 2, with 2 receiving stock from 3, etc. In this example, if an order is placed by installation 1 for stock from installation 2, the length of time for delivery of this stock is determined not only by the natural lead time between these two sites, but also by the availability of stock at the second installation. In this paper we shall consider the problem of determining optimal purchasing quantities in a multi-installation model of this type.
Electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial salvage after thrombolysis in acute myocardial infarction. (1989)

There is a need for a simple clinical measurement that will indicate the extent of myocardial salvage after successful thrombolysis. This study examined whether coronary artery reperfusion reduced the infarct size as assessed electrocardiographically after thrombolytic treatment. The sum of the (sigma) ST segment area in leads showing ST segment elevation in the 12 lead electrocardiogram at presentation was used as an index of potential myocardial injury (initial ischaemic index). The evolved infarct size at 48 h was assessed by a QRS scoring system. Two groups of patients, both admitted with anterior myocardial infarction within 6 h of onset, were studied. Group 1 (n = 35) received analgesia only and group 2 (n = 33) received thrombolytic treatment either by the intracoronary (streptokinase, n = 13) or intravenous route (anistreplase, n = 20). Reperfusion was assessed angiographically. The mean (SD) potential infarct size assessed by the initial ischaemic index was similar in both groups (group 1, sigma ST area = 115 (60) mm2 and group 2 = 126 (77 mm2). The QRS score representing evolved infarct size was significantly lower in the treated group (4.1 (2.5] than in group 1 (7.8 (2.6]. The 95% confidence intervals for QRS scores based on the admission sigma ST area from patients with successful reperfusion were applied to a third set of patients (n = 22) to test the ability of the admission ST area (myocardial injury) to predict the QRS score accurately. While patients with successful reperfusion had significantly lower QRS scores than those who did not (4.5 (3.1) versus 9.3 (3.4)), the wide confidence intervals caused by inter-individual variability precluded an accurate prediction of the QRS score in an individual from the sigma ST area at time of presentation. There was no difference in infarct size in patients treated early (</= 3 h) (QRS score 4.2(2.8)) or later (3-6 h) (4.1(2.1)). This study provides evidence that sequential electrocardiographic changes are reduced in patients with anterior infarction who achieve reperfusion after thrombolytic treatment and that this benefit is shown with treatment given up to six hours after infarct onset. None the less, the relation between the initial ischaemic index and the evolved QRS score has wide confidence intervals, reflecting inter-individual variability, and does not allow the prediction of a QRS score in an individual patient.
Ion Concentration and Stress in a Chemically Tempered Glass (1970)

Diffusion and stress profiles were determined in an Na‐for‐Li exchanged Li 2 O‐Al 2 O 3 ‐SiO 2 glass as a function of the time of reheating in air. Comparison of the two sets of data by a thermal‐stress analogy gave a fair correlation, although the depth of the compressive layer was overestimated by about 16%. Stress data alone were used to obtain an interdiffusion coefficient at 400°C which agreed well with the diffusivity obtained directly. The stress and concentration fractions were related graphically; the relation suggests that there is a slight accommodation of the larger ion by the glass structure without stress buildup during the early stages of exchange. These results led to a method of predicting the modulus of rupture of an exchanged glass after it is reheated in air
Fuzzy compliance robot control using multi rule-base (2003)

The authors propose a compliance robot control algorithm using a fuzzy adaptive controller and a fuzzy compliance vector generator. Because a compliant motion robot subject to external forces by contact with the external environment has increased nonlinearity, controller adaptivity is required. Existing adaptive controllers have difficulties in dealing with real-time processes. The fuzzy adaptive controller principle is applied to overcome this problem. The use of a fuzzy compliant selection vector generator is proposed for flexible compliant motion. The performance of the proposed algorithm was confirmed by experimental results.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Government Cloud Computing and National Data Sovereignty (2012)

Abstract Government cloud services are a new development at the intersection of electronic government and cloud computing which holds the promise of rendering government service delivery more effective and efficient. Cloud services are virtual, dynamic, and potentially stateless which has triggered governments' concern for data sovereignty. This article explores data sovereignty in relation to government cloud services and how national strategies and international policy evolve. It concludes that data sovereignty presents national governments with a legal risk that cannot be adequately addressed with technology or through contractual arrangements alone. Governments therefore adopt strategies that aim to retain sovereignty over government information.
Interest Aware Recommendations Based on Adaptive User Profiling (2011)

Although the World Wide Web has evolved to be an enormous resource over the last decade, sifting through all the information available poses a significant challenge to users as there is simply too much information available. Therefore, systems that support users by performing personalized information filtering or search are becoming increasingly important. This paper presents a mechanism which provides recommendations based on a user profile that adapts to the changing user interests. Taking the multiple and diverse information needs of the user into consideration, the proposed mechanism constructs a user profile that adapts according to the changing user requirements.

This paper challenges a concurrent perception that total quality is a management fad and being replaced by business excellence, and suggests that quality is and will be a coherent part of, and a fundamental way to business excellence. This paper further proposes that quality management will move to a higher platform: creative quality, which will be the only sustaining competitive advantage in the future hyper‐dynamic business world. By elaborating the characteristics and reflexes in connection to the attainment of creative quality, this paper presents a new agenda for business excellence.
Thin-film lateral bipolar transistor in silicon-on-sapphire structure (1967)

Heteroepitaxial films of silicon-on-sapphire were used to fabricate lateral bipolar n-p-n transistors. The devices have a common-base direct-current amplification factor of 0.9 and a maximum frequency of oscillation of 2.4 GHz. As a result of the vertical p-n-junction arrangement, small junction areas are possible, e.g. 1×10−6cm2, which yield depletion-layer capacitances of 0.02–0.05 pF.
V<scp>ORTEX</scp>-I<scp>NDUCED</scp> V<scp>IBRATIONS</scp> (2003)

▪ Abstract This review summarizes fundamental results and discoveries concerning vortex-induced vibration (VIV), that have been made over the last two decades, many of which are related to the push to explore very low mass and damping, and to new computational and experimental techniques that were hitherto not available. We bring together new concepts and phenomena generic to VIV systems, and pay special attention to the vortex dynamics and energy transfer that give rise to modes of vibration, the importance of mass and damping, the concept of a critical mass, the relationship between force and vorticity, and the concept of “effective elasticity,” among other points. We present new vortex wake modes, generally in the framework of a map of vortex modes compiled from forced vibration studies, some of which cause free vibration. Some discussion focuses on topics of current debate, such as the decomposition of force, the relevance of the paradigm flow of an elastically mounted cylinder to more complex systems, and the relationship between forced and free vibration.

Digital Electronic Flight Decks: The Outlook for Commercial Aviation (1984)

Digital avionics technology shows great promise in reducing overall airplane system cost. The new digital electronic components are very reliable and offer great flexibility in application. Development of modular control units, for the directional controls and engine throttles, will aid standardization and gradual refinement of such control devices. A network of multisystem digital data buses can be developed to handle the complex interchange of data between interrelated systems throughout the airplane.
Analysis of techniques to obtain plasma for measurement of levels of free fatty acids (1993)

Accuracy in measurement of plasma free fatty acids (FFA), and therefore prevention of the in vitro lipolysis, is a crucial step to understand the physiologic role of plasma FFA and their relationships in the pathogenesis of important metabolic disorders such as central obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes mellitus. As lipoprotein triglyceride-fatty acids are elevated in these states, in vitro lipolysis of triglycerides may artifactually increase FFA. Plasma FFA were measured in subjects before and after heparin administration, under different experimental conditions affecting the in vitro activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL). Paraoxon, a cholinesterase inhibitor neurotoxin known to block plasma lipolytic activity, and preextraction timing and temperature of collection were tested. Paraoxon was required to prevent triglyceride hydrolysis in: a) preheparin plasma allowed to stand at room temperature (21 degrees C) for 2 h, before being frozen at -20 degrees C (FFA = 1817 +/- 291 vs. 698 +/- 66 microEq/l, P < 0.005, mean +/- SEM, without and with paraoxon, respectively); and b) in postheparin plasma immediately stored at -20 degrees C (FFA = 2682 +/- 357 vs. 1299 +/- 150 microEq/l, P < 0.005, without and with paraoxon, respectively). No difference in the FFA level was found in preheparin plasma collected either with or without paraoxon when: a) the samples were placed in ice and immediately assayed; b) the specimens were immediately frozen at -70 degrees C and assayed 60 days later.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Heat generation during ulnar osteotomy with microsagittal saw blades. (2003)

Ulnar shortening osteotomy is a surgical treatment option for patients with symptomatic ulnar positive variance for a variety of reasons. Delayed healing and nonunion of the osteotomized sites have been reported and present problematic complications of this procedure. Studies have shown nonunion rate with transverse cuts ranging from 8-15%. The goal is to achieve parallel cuts, thus maximizing the contacting bony surface area for a better union rate. The senior surgeon attempted using a custom thick blade to insure parallel cuts. The concern is whether the heat generated during such a cut would contribute to non-union. It is our hypothesis that complications with ulnar shortening osteotomy using a thick blade are secondary to excess heat generation. When generated heat surpasses the threshold temperature of bone tissue, the organic matrix is irreversibly damaged and necrosis of the bony ends may occur. The present study measured the heat generation during ulnar osteotomy using different blade thicknesses. Thirty-five fresh turkey femurs, having similar size and cortical thickness of the human ulna, were used. Loading was done at three different speeds of 0.66, 1.0, and 1.5 mm/second corresponding respectively to 30, 20, and 10 seconds for the complete cut. A general linear statistical model was fitted relating temperature rise to three predictive factors: blade thickness, sensor distance, and initial bone temperature. There was a statistically significant relationship between temperature rise and all three predictor variables at the 99% confidence level. There was no statistically significant relationship between temperature rise and the number of cuts with the same blade up to 10 times. Compared with the single microsagital saw blade, the temperature rise for the double thickness blade was 14% higher and for the triple thickness blade was 23% higher. The temperature rise was inversely related to the speed of the cut. The temperature rise for the bone cut in 30 seconds was 1.5 times higher than the temperature rise when the bone was cut in 10 seconds. Complications with ulnar shortening osteotomy may be secondary to excess heat generation. A new thick saw blade design and the use of proper internal/external irrigation may overcome the problem.
