Unequivocal synthesis of bis(2‐cyanoacrylate) monomers. I. Via anthracene adducts (1978)

Abstract An unequivocal and general synthesis of bis(2‐cyanoacrylate) monomers from Diels‐Alder adducts of the alkyl 2‐cyanoacrylates has been developed. Saponification of the anthracene adduct of either isobutyl or ethyl 2‐cyanoacrylate to the anthracene/2‐cyanoacrylic acid adduct, conversion of the latter to the alkali salt or acid chloride derivatives, followed by respective esterification reactions with an organic dihalide or glycol gave the bis‐anthracene adduct precursors to the bis(2‐cyanoacrylate) monomers. Heating the bis‐adducts with excess maleic anhydride in refluxing xylene effected retrograde diene scission to the bis(2‐cyanoacrylate) monomers in up to 80% overall yields. Comonomer blends of the difunctional bis(2‐cyanoacrylates) with the alkyl 2‐cyanoacrylates gave crosslinked polymeric adhesive compositions exhibiting higher bond strengths under both dry and wet conditions than the noncrosslinked cyanoacrylate adhesives. Potential applications of interest are as pit and fissure sealants in dentistry and for the direct bonding of orthodontic attachments.
Improved location features for meeting speaker diarization (2007)

This paper proposes several improvements to the correlationbased location features recently used in meeting speaker diarization. A speech-specific alternative to the generalized cross correlation phase transform (GCC-PHAT) algorithm is tested and shown to provide equal or better results without noise reduction or continuity-enforcing smoothing. The limitations of a single correlation reference waveform are discussed, and it is shown how a multi-band energy ratio feature can help overcome them, yielding significantly improved performance. An all-pairs correlation is also proposed, and when combined with energy ratios, it also improves upon the baseline system. However, the best combination is the baseline correlation features with energy ratios. Index Terms: speaker identification, diarization, localization

Photoreception in Neurospora crassa: correlation of reduced light sensitivity with flavin deficiency. (1981)

The effect of flavin deficiency on blue light responses in Neurospora crassa was studied through the use of two riboflavin mutants (rib-1 and rib-2). The photoresponses assayed were the suppression of circadian conidiation, the phase shifting of the circadian conidiation rhythm, and the induction of carotenoid synthesis. Flavin deficiency was induced in the rib-1 mutant by restrictive growth temperatures and in the rib-2 mutant by low levels of supplemental riboflavin. At 26 degrees C, a semirestrictive growth temperature, the rib-1 mutant is about 1/80th as sensitive to light for the photosuppression of circadian conidiation. Flavin deficiency in the rib-1 and rib-2 strains was effective in reducing the photosensitivity for phase shifting and carotenogenesis to about 1/16th and 1/4th of normal, respectively. Experiments with permissive temperatures, riboflavin supplementation, and revertants at the rib locus all indicated that the effects on light sensitivity were due solely to the presence of the rib mutations. These results provide evidence that one or more flavin photoreceptors are involved in the blue light responses of Neurospora.
The user as a sensor (2012)

Indoor navigation systems for users who are visually impaired typically rely upon expensive physical augmentation of the environment or expensive sensing equipment; consequently few systems have been implemented. We present an indoor navigation system called Navatar that allows for localization and navigation by exploiting the physical characteristics of indoor environments, taking advantage of the unique sensing abilities of users with visual impairments, and minimalistic sensing achievable with low cost accelerometers available in smartphones. Particle filters are used to estimate the user's location based on the accelerometer data as well as the user confirming the presence of anticipated tactile landmarks along the provided path. Navatar has a high possibility of large-scale deployment, as it only requires an annotated virtual representation of an indoor environment. A user study with six blind users determines the accuracy of the approach, collects qualitative experiences and identifies areas for improvement.
The Brazilian sugar industry: recent developments. (2001)

Brazil is among the world leaders in the production of sugarcane, sugar, and ethanol (fuel alcohol). In addition, it is among the most efficient of all major sugar produc- ers. The country also produces and exports a diverse number of sugar products. Since Brazil can produce either sugar or ethanol from sugarcane, it is one of the few countries that can adjust sugar production rapidly to potential world sugar shortfalls and high international prices. In 2000, less than half of its cane production was ground for sugar.
An Examination of the Historical-Jesus Motif in the Epistle to the Hebrews (1988)

The book of Hebrews offers a richness in such themes as Christology, ecclesiology, eschatology, and soteriology, all of them set within the framework of a paraenetic thrust-a call to faithfulness in a time of impending difficulties.'(Cf., e.g., the term "word of exhortation" in 13:ZZ.z)The present study deals specifically with the historical-Jesus motif.I examine first the book's use of the term IFsous, then the broader connections of the historical-Jesus motif, and finally the author's purpose for featuring the motif.It should be noted at the outset that my use of the term "historical Jesus" is not in the same sense as that of the criticalhistorical scholars or that of the form-critical school.Rather, it denotes the human Jesus or
Measurement and Generation of Error Correcting Codes for Package Failures (1978)

Error correcting codes have been successfully employed to correct errors associated with failures in computer memories. A typical code which has found wide application is the binary Hamming code. This code corrects single bit errors. With the advent of large-scale integration (LSI) storage array technology, the likelihood of errors which exceed the correction and detection capability of such a code is significant. A serious and heretofore unanswered question is the error detection capability of a given code which is implemented and decoded for single error correction, particularly when a storage array chip or card carrying multiple bits from the codeword has failed. In order to identify this capability, a new reliability parameter called package detectability is defined. This paper also presents a method for computing package detectability. The analysis has been performed on a number of codes in order to optimize the packaging for maximum detectability. In addition, a class of distance 3 codes with maximal b-bit package detectability is given.
Historical Introduction to the General Properties of Retroviruses (1997)

Although a high rate of local control and good/excellent cosmetic outcome is provided with HDR PBB, the risk of unfavorable cosmetic changes when treated with both LDR PBB and adriamycin is noteworthy. This suggests that HDR PBB is preferred in patients for whom adriamycin is indicated.

Glutathione and cysteine levels in human tumour biopsies (1990)

Abstract There is evidence that some human tumours could be treated with a combination of buthionine sulfoximine and hypoxic cell sensitizers. However, clinical application of this technique requires a prior knowledge of the level of non-protein bound sulfhydryl (NPSH) compounds in these tumours. The present study provides data on the levels of glutathione (GSH) and cysteine (CYS) in human tumour biopsies from the cervix and from the head and neck. The NPSH compounds were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. The median GSH values were 20.5 nmol/mg protein (cervix) and 23 nmol/mg protein (head and neck) while the median CYS values were 4.4 (cervix) and 4.2 nmol/mg protein (head and neck). The values varied widely from one patient to another.
Tag antenna using printed dipole with H-slot for UHF RFID applications (2014)

This paper proposes the tag antenna designed to operate along the frequency band of 902-928 MHz corresponding to UHF RFID in Thailand and FCC standards. The tag antenna was fabricated from the thin FR4 substrate with the dielectric constant of 4.3 and the thickness of 1.5 mm. The radiation pattern of the tag antenna is omni-directional beam. The tag antenna is designed by using H-slot matching technique for impedance matching between the antenna and IC chip with the impedance of 16.01-j150.02 Ω at the frequency of 915 MHz that is the center frequency of FCC standard. The structure of the tag antenna is durable and suitable for applying with pallet applications.
Improving the Sensitivity and Resolution of Miniature Ion Mobility Spectrometers with a Capacitive Trans Impedance Amplifier (2005)

The selectivity and sensitivity of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) to explosives was first demonstrated by Karasek in 1974.1 Airport security has always been a concern in the United States, especially since September 11th, 2001, and as a result IMS is commonly used to screen airline passengers and their luggage at all major airports. Portable IMS systems are now widely available for a variety of applications, but as the overall size of the IMS instrumentation decreases, the sensitivity typically decreases as well. A new ion detector read out technology, a capacitive trans-impedance amplifier (CTIA), coupled to a traditional Faraday plate has shown increased sensitivity over a Faraday plate read by a conventional current to voltage converter when used in mass spectrometry. Sandia National Laboratories sponsored a project to determine whether the CTIA technology could be coupled to an IMS, and to determine the potential increase in sensitivity that could be provided to a miniature IMS equipped with the new read out technology.Sandia first provided a full size IMS, a Phemto-Chem PCP-110, which was modified to support the first generation of CTIA (CTIA1). The CTIA1 was coupled to the IMS and was successfully used to detect explosives. Next, Sandia provided miniature IMS drift tubes, but incompatibilities necessitated the design of new miniature systems. At first, only the drift tube itself was redesigned, but eventually a complete miniature IMS, including the ionizer, circuitry, and read out, was designed and built. During the design phase a new ion-beam shutter capable of increased resolution was also implemented. The second generation of CTIA was coupled to a custom drift tube and the system demonstrated increased resolution and drastically increased sensitivity to the common explosives TNT and RDX when compared to the sensitivity of the system provided by Sandia. A custom miniature drift tube coupled to a CTIA will be placed into the peripheral equipment for Sandia's MicroHound II instrumentation to provide a portable IMS with sensitivity equal to or better than bench top IMS systems.
Hormonal Regulation of P450scc (20,22-desmolase) and P450cl7 (17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase) in Cultured Human Granulosa Cells* (1986)

Conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone in man is mediated by a single enzyme, P450scc. To study possible regulation of the single P450scc gene in ovarian steroid synthesis, we incubated human granulosa cells with potential hormonal stimulators, measured P450scc mRNA accumulation by hybridization to 32P-labeled human P450scc cDNA, and compared the results to secretion of progesterone into the culture medium. Primary cultures of human granulosa cells were optimally responsive after 8-14 days of culture. Incubation with hCG (1.0-100 ng/ml), FSH (1.0-50 ng/ml), and (Bu)2cAMP (0.02-2.0 mM) increased P450scc mRNA accumulation and progesterone secretion in dose-dependent fashions. Maximal stimulation increased P450scc mRNA accumulation and progesterone secretion to 490% and 240% of control values, respectively, with hCG, to 166% and 168% with FSH, and to 495% and 380% with (Bu)2cAMP. PRL (to 100 ng/ml), ACTH (10(-6) M), and butyric acid (2 mM) had no significant effect on progesterone secretion or P450scc mRNA accumulation. These data indicate gonadotropin-specific stimulation of cAMP-mediated regulation of P450scc mRNA accumulation in human granulosa cells, presumably mediated by increased P450scc gene transcription. Ovarian estrogen synthesis may require both thecal and granulosa cells, although this two-cell theory of estrogen synthesis is unproven in man. To examine this theory, we probed the same blots used in the experiments described above with 32P-labeled human P450c17 cDNA (P450c17 is the single enzyme mediating both 17 alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase activities). Only miniscule amounts of P450c17 mRNA were found in the human granulosa cells, and the amounts did not increase in response to any of the above stimuli. These data strongly support the two-cell theory of human ovarian estrogen synthesis.
Preparation of Size Controllable Polypyrrole Sub‐Microcapsules Using SEBS Copolymer as the Building Block (2006)

Abstract Summary: SEBS is used as building blocks to fabricate size controllable polypyrrole (PPy) capsules. Polypyrrole shells grow on the surfaces of the size controllable oxidant sub‐microparticles dispersed in the solution cast film of a SEBS copolymer by vapor phase polymerization. After washing in ethanol, PPy sub‐microcapsules dispersed in a SEBS matrix are obtained. This technique shows advantages of lower cost and less pollution, as compared with the gold‐template method reported in the literature.

Application of Multilateral Well Technology in the Deep Waters of the Campos Basin: History and Probable Evolution (2001)

Abstract This paper presents some of the experience of drilling and completing level 4 and 5 multilateral wells in deep waters of the Campos Basin, in the last three years. It presents the reason for this initiative, a general description of the several types of junction building processes (both milled and pre-milled window systems) and some aspects of the wells that were drilled and completed: the Bonito well (water depth:200m); Voador well (water depth: 565 m) and the two Barracuda wells (water depth: 802m/ 850m). This paper also shows the lessons learnt during these complex projects and concludes that the multilateral well technology became a viable alternative for subsea development.
Predicting User Engagement with Direct Displays Using Mouse Cursor Information (2016)

Predicting user engagement with direct displays (DD) is of paramount importance to commercial search engines, as well as to search performance evaluation. However, understanding within-content engagement on a web page is not a trivial task mainly because of two reasons: (1) engagement is subjective and different users may exhibit different behavioural patterns; (2) existing proxies of user engagement (e.g., clicks, dwell time) suffer from certain caveats, such as the well-known position bias, and are not as effective in discriminating between useful and non-useful components. In this paper, we conduct a crowdsourcing study and examine how users engage with a prominent web search engine component such as the knowledge module (KM) display. To this end, we collect and analyse more than 115k mouse cursor positions from 300 users, who perform a series of search tasks. Furthermore, we engineer a large number of meta-features which we use to predict different proxies of user engagement, including attention and usefulness. In our experiments, we demonstrate that our approach is able to predict more accurately different levels of user engagement and outperform existing baselines.

Multi-octave phased array for circuit integration using balanced antipodal Vivaldi antenna elements (2002)

A novel wide bandwidth antenna designed for use in integrated phased arrays is described. The balanced antipodal Vivaldi antenna exhibits a very wide bandwidth combined with low cross polarisation and this performance is well suited for use in EW systems. Measured performance of this new antenna is compared to both the conventional Vivaldi and the antipodal Vivaldi antennas. It is shown that the new antenna has major advantages over the Vivaldi in terms of increased bandwidth capabilities and over the antipodal Vivaldi in terms of improved cross polar performance. Initial results are presented for a seven element linear array using elements made on high permittivity substrate. Analysis using the FDTD method is used for both element optimisation and to provide insight into the antenna operation.
DETERMINATION OF GRAPHITIC AND AMORPHOUS CARBON (1955)

Both bleomycin injection and excision are safe and effective treatments for ALHs located on the arytenoids. On the condition that the ALH is well exposed and can be completely removed, ALH excision surgery is the preferable method to treat ALHs located on the arytenoids.
Modulation of macrophage Fc gamma receptors by rGM-CSF. (1993)

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a hematopoietic growth factor being used increasingly to support white blood cell counts in hematologic disorders. Since the survival of IgG-sensitized cells following blood transfusions and the clearance of immune complexes are important in these disorders, we investigated the effect of GM-CSF on the Fc gamma receptors largely responsible for this immune clearance. Human monocytes were cultured in buffer or 100 U/mL of recombinant GM-CSF (rGM-CSF) for 48 hours. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate changes in the expression of the three Fc gamma receptors. Fc gamma RII was the only Fc gamma receptor significantly increased by rGM-CSF. This increase in Fc gamma RII surface protein was correlated with an increase in macrophage binding of erythrocytes sensitized with IgG. In addition, an increase in monocyte binding of IgG-sensitized RBCs was observed in RBCs sensitized with murine IgG2b antibody, which preferentially binds to Fc gamma RII. rGM-CSF also increased the monocyte Fc gamma RII-dependent low-affinity binding site for trimeric IgG. Furthermore, rGM-CSF was observed to increase the expression of monocyte Fc gamma RII mRNA, including that for Fc gamma RIIA. Thus, these studies demonstrate that GM-CSF increases monocyte Fc gamma RII expression and function and suggests that a similar process may be present in vivo. This effect may be either beneficial (increased clearance of immune complexes) and/or detrimental (increased transfusion requirements) in select patients.
Skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic calcium regulation and sudden death syndrome in chickens (1995)

1. Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) is a disease of well-developed, predominantly male broiler chickens where death appears to occur because of cardiovascular failure. The role of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic calcium regulation as a potential cause of SDS has been investigated. 2. Calcium regulation of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was compared between broiler and Leghorn chickens. Calcium regulation matured from the 2nd to the 11th week and, at any age, broiler chickens showed significantly lower calcium transport rates and transport efficiencies. The mechanism of calcium transport in broiler chickens was more energy-consuming than that of the Leghorn chickens. 3. Sarcoplasmic calcium regulation is pivotal for muscle metabolism. As in porcine malignant hyperthermia, weaker calcium regulation might lead to hyperactivation of skeletal muscle, followed by elevated lactic acid concentrations and cardiovascular failure.
Optimization of Nitrogen and Metal Ions Supplementation for Very High Gravity Bioethanol Fermentation from Sweet Sorghum Juice Using an Orthogonal Array Design (2012)

Optimization of four parameters, i.e., zinc (Zn2+), magnesium (Mg2+), manganese (Mn2+) and yeast extract for bioethanol production from sweet sorghum juice by Saccharomyces cerevisiae NP 01 under very high gravity (VHG, 270 g·L−1 of total sugar) conditions was performed using an L9 (34) orthogonal array design. The fermentation was carried out at 30 °C in 500-mL air-locked Erlenmeyer flasks at the agitation rate of 100 rpm and the initial yeast cell concentration in the juice was approximately 5 × 107 cells·mL−1. The results showed that the order of influence was yeast extract > Mn2+ > Zn2+ > Mg2+ and the optimum nutrient concentrations for the ethanol fermentation were Zn2+, 0.01; Mg2+, 0.05; Mn2+, 0.04; and yeast extract, 9 g·L−1. The verification experiments under the optimum condition clearly indicated that the metals and nitrogen supplementation improved ethanol production efficiency under the VHG fermentation conditions. The ethanol concentration (P), yield (Yp/s) and productivity (Qp) were 120.58 ± 0.26 g·L−1, 0.49 ± 0.01 and 2.51 ± 0.01 g·L−1·h−1, respectively, while in the control treatment (without nutrient supplement) P, Yp/s and Qp were only 93.45 ± 0.45 g·L−1, 0.49 ± 0.00 and 1.30 ± 0.01 g·L−1·h−1, respectively.
Optimum Acquisition of the Idling First-Order Phase-Locked Loop (1974)

Acquisition of the idling first-order phase-locked loop (PLL) is investigated. An analytical solution for the Fokker-Planck equation is found if the noise term is neglected. Furthermore, the modulation signal that optimizes the acquisition is obtained by use of phase-plane techniques and Pontryagin's minimum principle.
