THE ANALYSIS OF THERMAL ECONOMY OF ATOMIC POWER PLANTS, ARRANGED WITH A GAS COOLANT (1960)

Techniques for analyzing the thermal economy of gas- cooled (carhon dioxide at 15 atm) nuclear power plants are suggested. Analyses are carried out at 300, 375, and 400 deg C gas inlet temperatures for a two-cycle steam generator and at 375 deg C for a single-cycle generator. The economy factor and efficiency of the two systems are compared. (tr-auth)

Electrophysiological features in dogs with peripheral nerve sheath tumors: 51 cases (1993–2010) (2012)

Results suggested that electrophysiological studies may be sensitive for the detection of PNST and helpful in the imaging diagnosis. Epaxial electromyographic abnormalities appeared to be predictive for intervertebral or vertebral canal invasion by PNSTs in dogs.
Host-Specific Involvement of the HC Protein in the Long-Distance Movement of Potyviruses (2002)

Plum pox virus (PPV) is a member of the Potyvirus genus that, in nature, infects trees of the Prunus genus. Although PPV infects systemically several species of the Nicotiana genus, such as N. clevelandii and N. benthamiana, and replicates in the inoculated leaves of N. tabacum, it is unable to infect systemically the last host. The long-distance movement defect of PPV was corrected in transgenic tobacco plants expressing the 5"-terminal region of the genome of tobacco etch virus (TEV), a potyvirus that infects systemically tobacco. The fact that PPV was unable to move to upper noninoculated leaves in tobacco plants transformed with the same TEV transgene, but with a mutation in the HC protein (HC-Pro)-coding sequences, identifies the multifunctional HC-Pro as the complementing factor, and strongly suggests that a defect in an HC-Pro activity is responsible for the long-distance movement defect of PPV in tobacco. Whereas PPV HC-Pro strongly intensifies the symptoms caused by potato virus X (PVX) in the PPV systemic hosts N. clevelandii and N. benthamiana, it has no apparent effect on PVX pathogenicity in tobacco, supporting the hypothesis that long-distance movement and pathogenicity enhancement are related activities of the potyviral HC proteins. The movement defect of PPV in tobacco could also be complemented by cucumber mosaic virus in a mixed infection, demonstrating that at least some components of the long-distance machinery of the potyviruses are not strictly virus specific. A general conclusion of this work is that the HC-Pro might be a relevant factor for controlling the host range of the potyviruses.
Characterization of Fatigue Mechanisms of Thermal Barrier Coatings by a Novel Laser-Based Test (1998)

The use of high performance ceramic thermal barrier coatings in stationary gas turbines requires fundamental knowledge of their fatigue behavior under high temperature gradients and thermal cycling. An experimental method based on rapid laser heating complemented with finite-element calculations was developed in order to identify the major damage mechanisms and to obtain a data set for reliability assessment of thermal barrier coatings for temperature and stress fields similar to gas turbine conditions. The observed failures are strongly related to the pretreatment procedures such as annealing under high temperature gradients and isothermal long-term oxidation. The vertical crack patterns observed close to the top surface of the Zirconia coating are generated at the moment of rapid cooling. These cracks are induced by high biaxial tensile stresses caused by the temperature gradient and the stress reversion after relaxation of compressive stresses at high temperatures. The long-term fatigue behavior is decisively determined by two processes: (i) The porous Zirconia loses its damage tolerant properties by densification. (ii) The growth of an oxide layer at the bond coat degrades adhesion and produces localized stress fields at the interface. Cyclic loads increase the length of existing in-plane cracks and delaminations rather than enlarging their number. Misfit of the crack flanks and wedge effects are the driving forces for continued crack propagation. These experimental results are discussed in terms of fracture mechanics.
ENDOTOXIN, HISTAMINE-SENSITIZING FACTOR AND LYMPHOCYTOSIS-PROMOTING FACTOR CONTENTS OF PERTUSSIS VACCINES PRODUCED IN JAPAN (1978)

The amounts of endotoxin, histamine-sensitizing factor and lymphocytosis-promoting factor contained in combined diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus and combined diphteria-pertussis vaccines recently produced in Japan were determined and the relationships among them were statistically analyzed. The estimated values in histamine-sensitizing units (HSU) and lymphocytosispromoting units (LPU) per human dose ranged from 0.3 to 6 and from 0.4 to 5, respectively. A fairly wide range of endotoxin contents, which were expressed in body weight-decreasing units (BWDU), was also demonstrated. All the ranges were larger than those expected from experimental error. There was a positive correlation between the HSU and LPU values although the individual HSU-LPU ratios ranged from 0.3 to 3, but the range was markedly larger than the width of the 95% confidence interval of the mean ratio. Negative correlation between BWDU and LPU was also significant, probably because of the relatively large number degrees of freedom, though the coefficient was fairly small; while that between BWDU and HSU was not significant. The frequency distribution of individual values of HSU was divided into two lognormal distributions. With one of the two groups obtained by this subdivision, a distinct positive correlation bewteen HSU and LPU was demonstrated, but with the other group there was little correlation. Some differences between the two groups were also found in the correlations between BWDU and the other two variates. No factors responsible for the separation of the groups have yet been found.
Optimal design for two dimensional recursive digital filters (1983)

Abstract Techniques are proposed for the design of two‐dimensional recursive filters approximating simultaneously prescribed specifications of magnitude and group delay. By treating the coefficients of the transfer function as decision variables, these approximation problems are formulated as (1) preference optimization problem and (2) optimization‐satisfaction problem, in order to obtain optimal transfer functions. In Case (1) an optimal preference solution is selected by a designer interactively from among a set of non‐inferior solutions of a 2‐object optimization problem for two performance indices of magnitude and group delay. In Case (2) the performance index for magnitude is optimized under the satisfaction condition so that the index of approximation error of group delay is always within a specified value. Finally, design examples from these two techniques are given.
Environmental Lung Diseases—2015 (2015)

Occupational lung diseases have been remarkably controlled since health regulations, promulgated in the 1970s, resulted in reductions in exposures and substitutions with less hazardous products. Environmental health has also made progress in industrialized nations with reductions in particulate matter air pollution, although ozone remains a persistent challenge. This issue on Occupational and Environmental Pulmonary and Bronchiolar Disorders addresses the continued environmental risks to the human lung that exist despite these improvements.
Fabrication and use of conducting polymer linear actuators (2008)

The development of biomimetic devices will benefit from the incorporation of ac-tuators with combinations of properties common to biological systems, for example low density, controllable mechanical flexibility, and compact size. Conducting poly-mers, such as polypyrrole, exhibit muscle-like properties and the potential to provide the above capabilities while delivering significant forces over useful displacements. Current conducting polymer linear actuators, however, are generally limited to dis-placements of less than 0.5 mm, forces of less than 1 N, and cycle frequencies of less than 0.1 Hz. These materials are rarely tested on a length scale of more than a few millimeters, and their incorporation into real applications has to date been limited. This work focuses on improving and scaling conducting polymer linear actua-tors for application in macroscale systems. A new fabrication method is described that delivers polypyrrole ribbons with uniform thicknesses of 10 to 30 pm, widths of 20 ptm to 20 mm, and lengths exceeding 5 m. A second method is described where a conductive gold layer is incorporated into the ribbons and is shown to enhance
Digital alloy interface grading of an InAlAs/InGaAs quantum cascade laser structure studied by cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy (2003)

We have studied an InGaAs/InAlAs quantum cascade laser structure with cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy. In the quantum cascade laser structure digital alloy grading was used to soften the barriers of the active region. We show that due to alloy fluctuations, softening of the barriers occurs even without the digital grading.
Axitinib, a new therapeutic option in renal cell carcinoma (2012)

Axitinib is a small-molecule protein-tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor specifically targeting this family of receptors, in addition to platelet-derived growth factor receptor and proto-oncogene c-Kit. Improved knowledge of kidney cancer development, and specifically mutations in the VHL gene, has supported the targeting of angiogenesis pathways. Axitinib is the most recently approved agent for use in metastatic renal cell carcinoma. This review will focus on the preclinical pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and clinical activity of this agent, and describe its place in the current treatment of renal cell carcinoma.
Somatotropic and Sodium-Retaining Effects of Human Growth Hormone and Placental Lactogen in Lower Vertebrates (1973)

Human growth hormone resembled ovine prolactin in its ability to promote growth of bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) tadpoles. Both hormones stimulated a dose-related increase in tail length, tail height and body weight, but prolactin tended to be more potent. Human growth hormone was about half as active as prolactin in causing sodium retention in the teleost Tilapia mossambica. On the other hand, human placental lactogen failed to induce either growth responses in tadpoles or sodium retention in Tilapia. (Endocrinology93: 960, 1973)
Caustics By Reflection And Their Application To Elastic-Plastic And Dynamic Fracture Mechanics (1988)

Applications of the method of reflected caustics to the measurement of the J integral in ductile materials are reviewed. It is demonstrated, both numerically and experimentally, that the conditions for accurate interpretation of caustics on the basis of plane stress small scale yielding analyses are often overrestrictive. To overcome these restrictions, we used a three-dimensional, elastic-plastic finite-element calculation to analyze caustics formed by reflection of light from a particular test specimen. Experimental measurements on the same specimen confirm the numerically obtained results. The out-of-plane surface displacements, measured experimentally by interferometry, are in excellent agreement with the corresponding numerical results. In addition, the experimentally obtained caustics agree well with the numerically generated caustics. The excellent agreement between experiment and calculations demonstrates the accuracy of the numerical model and establishes confidence in the interpretation of caustics in the presence of both extensive plasticity and three dimensionality. The analysis of caustics as based on the three-dimensional calculation is applied to the direct optical measurement of the time history of the J integral in a dynamically loaded specimen. The specimen was loaded in a drop weight tower, and the caustics were photographed with a high speed camera.
Experimental investigation of models of sound wave propagation in air-saturated porous media (1990)

Several theoretical models of sound wave propagation in air-saturated porous material are studied making use of precise measurements of both physical (porosity, flow resistivity, tortuosity) and acoustical (characteristic impedance, propagation constant) parameters. The aspects covered include the use of shape factors and the adequacy of frequency-dependent dynamic viscosity functions. Experimental results on both model materials and real material are used, with special attention to the low-frequency/high-flow resistivity regime for solid frame porous materials.
Morphology and Laser Damage Studies by Atomic Force Microscopy of E-Beam Evaporation Deposited AR and HR Coatings (1991)

Atomic Force Microscopy is a powerful tool for exploring the surface morphology of dielectric thin film coatings. We have demonstrated the utility of this tool in monitoring processing defects, laser conditioning and aging, and laser damage in e-beam evaporation deposited AR and HR coatings with a resolution not previously available.

“Knock-Out” Analogues as a Tool to Quantify Supramolecular Processes:  A Theoretical Study of Molecular Interactions in Guanidiniocarbonyl Pyrrole Carboxylate Dimers (2005)

It was recently shown experimentally that 5-(guanidiniocarbonyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate 1, a self-complementary zwitterion, dimerizes even in water with an unprecedented high association constant of K = 170 M(-1) (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 452-459). To get an insight into the importance of the various noncovalent binding interactions and of their interplay (electrostatic interactions, hydrogen binding, cooperative effects), we employ density functional theory to study the stability of several "knock-out" analogues in which single hydrogen bonds within these multiple point binding motif are switched off by replacing N-H hydrogen-donor groups with either methylene groups or an oxygen ether bridge. The influence of a highly polar solvent on the dimer stabilities is also examined. These calculations reproduce the experimental data for zwitterion 1. A comparison of 1 with the arginine dimer shows that the energy contents of the monomers also significantly influence the dimer stabilities. The analysis of the various "knock-out" analogues reveals as a main conclusion that simple models either based just on hydrogen-bond counting or on the assumption that the charge interaction by itself is the main and dominant factor fail to explain the stability of such self-assembled dimers. Our computations show that the hydrogen-bond network, the electrostatic attraction, and also their mutual interactions are responsible for the high stability of zwitterion 1.
Novel Diagnostics for Laser Fusion I. Neutron Activation Measurements. (1991)

Neutron activation measurements currently used in laser fusion experiments are reviewed. In the recent high density experiments, fast neutrons become important to diagnose the compressed fuel because of their long mean-free-path. This report includes diagnostic techniques concerning the fusion yield measurement and the p R measurement which use neutron-induced activation.
Larvicidal Effects of Boric Acid and Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate to Cat Fleas (Siphonaptera: Pulicidae) (1995)

Borate products varied in efficacy against larval cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis felis Bouché, with some effective at rates of 23 micrograms/cm2 when larvae were exposed to the compounds in sand. Powdered boric acid, granular boric acid, and disodium octaborate tetrahydrate (Polybor) at rates of 200 micrograms/cm2 produced < or = 90% mortality of larvae exposed in carpet for 96 h. LC50 values of larvae exposed in treated carpets for 96 h were 23 micrograms/cm2 for powdered boric acid, 40 micrograms/cm2 for granular boric acid, and 47 micrograms/cm2 for polybor.
Transparent Stretchable Self-Powered Patchable Sensor Platform with Ultrasensitive Recognition of Human Activities (2015)

Monitoring of human activities can provide clinically relevant information pertaining to disease diagnostics, preventive medicine, care for patients with chronic diseases, rehabilitation, and prosthetics. The recognition of strains on human skin, induced by subtle movements of muscles in the internal organs, such as the esophagus and trachea, and the motion of joints, was demonstrated using a self-powered patchable strain sensor platform, composed on multifunctional nanocomposites of low-density silver nanowires with a conductive elastomer of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrenesulfonate/polyurethane, with high sensitivity, stretchability, and optical transparency. The ultra-low-power consumption of the sensor, integrated with both a supercapacitor and a triboelectric nanogenerator into a single transparent stretchable platform based on the same nanocomposites, results in a self-powered monitoring system for skin strain. The capability of the sensor to recognize a wide range of strain on skin has the potential for use in new areas of invisible stretchable electronics for human monitoring. A new type of transparent, stretchable, and ultrasensitive strain sensor based on a AgNW/PEDOT:PSS/PU nanocomposite was developed. The concept of a self-powered patchable sensor system integrated with a supercapacitor and a triboelectric nanogenerator that can be used universally as an autonomous invisible sensor system was used to detect the wide range of strain on human skin.
Enhancement of the immune response generated against hepatitis C virus envelope proteins after DNA vaccination with polyprotein-encoding plasmids (2002)

Plasmids expressing variants of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core, E1 and E2 proteins individually or as polyproteins were administered to BALB/c mice. All plasmids induced a detectable and specific antibody response. Antibody titres against core, E1 and E2 proteins, 19 weeks after primary immunization, ranged from 1:50 to 1:4500 depending on the inoculated plasmid and the HCV antigen evaluated. Constructs expressing HCV envelope proteins as polyprotein variants including the core amino acid region induced statistically stronger antibody responses than plasmids encoding individual E1 and E2 proteins. Particularly, the pIDKE2 plasmid, expressing the first 650 amino acids in the viral polyprotein, induced a potent and multispecific antibody and lymphoproliferative response against HCV core, E1 and E2 proteins. Anti-E2 antibodies generated by pIDKE2 immunization were cross-reactive to hypervariable region-1 peptides from different genotypes. Immunization with the pIDKE2 also generated a positive cellular immune response against the core antigen, determined by interferon-gamma enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay, and induced detectable levels of interferon-gamma but not interleukin-4 in vaccinated mice. The detection of both antibody and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte responses, potentially targeted to circulating or cell-infecting virions respectively, in mice vaccinated with the pIDKE2 plasmid is very attractive for the effective eradication of HCV infection.

R/3 ADAM (SWEDISH NUCLEAR HEAT-ELECTRIC STATION) (1958)

Advances in medical treatment mean more older people are living with burn injuries. However, little is known about experiences and support needs of this group. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of semi-structured interviews with 10 burn survivors aged 51-71 years identified four themes: time and adjusting to an altered appearance; living with a visible difference in the eyes of others; me, myself and I; importance of maintaining appearance. Adjusting to burns was a long process. Participants discussed feeling isolated, needing information about how ageing impacts on scars and maintaining a socially acceptable appearance. Implications for care and further research are discussed.
