Induction of apoptosis in hematopoietic cells with an antibody against tomoregulin-1. (2006)

Tomoregulin-1, a type-I transmembrane protein with two follistatin modules, a unique epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain and a short, highly conserved cytoplasmic tail, was studied. A number of hematopoietic cell lines (L1210, CEM, Jurkat, U937, K562, JY, THP-1 and T2) express tomoregulin-1 endogenously. In these cells, apoptosis was induced by an antiserum (C29) and purified IgG against the follistatin modules, but not by antisera against the EGF-domain or the cytoplasmic tail. Furthermore, C29 induced apoptosis in tomoregulin-1-, but not in mock-transfected cells. Apoptosis was monitored through genomic DNA fragmentation, annexin-V staining and caspase-3 activation. Treatment of the cells with C29 in the presence of H89 (a SerlThr kinase inhibitor) or 8'-bromo-cyclicAMP revealed that apoptosis was mediated by a cAMP-dependent Ser/Thr kinase. Moreover, C29 increased [cAMP]i over 5-fold. Together, these data suggest that the C29 antiserum against tomoregulin-1 induces apoptosis of hematopoietic cells.
BSmooth: from whole genome bisulfite sequencing reads to differentially methylated regions (2012)

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification involved in gene regulation, which can now be measured using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. However, cost, complexity of the data, and lack of comprehensive analytical tools are major challenges that keep this technology from becoming widely applied. Here we present BSmooth, an alignment, quality control and analysis pipeline that provides accurate and precise results even with low coverage data, appropriately handling biological replicates. BSmooth is open source software, and can be downloaded from http://rafalab.jhsph.edu/bsmooth.
Velas e canhões no expansionismo holandês do século XVII (2009)

Between 1599 and 1654 the Dutch attacked and occupied the American Coast on the South Atlantic, that were part of the Portuguese Empire. On those same years Olivier van Noort in the first Dutch circumnavigation journey attacked Rio de Janeiro and Campina Grande capitulate together with the northeast withdrawal. In this period of time (half of the 17Th century) the newest republic of the United Provinces of the Netherlands, apart from Spain’s Catholic Philip II, advanced voraciously on the colonies of the vast Spanish empire than luso-spanish scattered on American, African and Asian lands.
Impact of the Mobility Models, Route and Link connectivity on the performance of Position based routing protocols (2014)

This paper investigate the fundamental factors “mobility models, route and link connectivity” in Mobile Ad hoc networks (MANET) which have a major impact on the performance of position based routing protocols. In addition, a new measurement method called probability of communication process is proposed. The method is used to measure the success rate of established path by a MANET routing protocol, which allow to stress test and inspect the stability, scalability and adaptability of MANET routing protocols. We analysed the effect of “route and link connectivity” on the performance of protocols under two different mobility models. Results show the evaluation and performance of the proposed protocol under a unified simulation environment for different scenarios.
Prediction of Dynamic Range from Stapedius Reflex in Cochlear Implant Patients (1988)

Amplitude growth functions of the electrically elicited stapedius reflex were compared with behavioral estimates of dynamic range in seven patients using multielectrode cochlear implants. The range between threshold and saturation level of the amplitude growth function usually either encompassed or fell between the preferred and uncomfortable listening levels. Implications of these findings for the initial mapping of electrodes in young children are discussed.
Some Aspects of Ferroelectricity (1955)

Quakers, Peace and the League of Nations: The Role of Bertram Pickard (2002)

Bertram Pickard belonged to a generation of Friends who helped to redefine the nature of Quaker international work between 1920 and 1940. In the aftermath of the First World War he played a major role in broadening the Quaker approach to peacemaking, encompassing not only conflict resolution through the peaceful settlement of disputes but also conflict prevention through institution-building at the international level. His support, however, for collective security and a peace enforcement role for the newly created League of Nations provoked strong opposition from those in London Yearly Meeting who viewed any support for the use of force as incompatible with Quaker beliefs. This paper attempts to highlight the dilemmas Pickard faced in trying to reconcile his profound pacifist convictions with his perceived responsibilities as a 'Quaker citizen', having to engage with the emergent realities of political power and the use of force at the inter-state level.
"Only Grey Matter"? Richard Posner's Cost-Benefit Analysis of Sex (reviewing Sex and Reason by Richard A. Posner) (1992)

When one writes about this subject, however apparently dry and impartial one's manner, one cannot avoid putting one's own sensibilities and responses on the page. Stendhal expressed this point vividly, when, in De l'amour, his narrator observes: am making every possible effort to be dry. I want to impose silence on my heart, which thinks it has a lot to say. I am continually fearful that I have written only a sigh of longing, when I think that I have set down a truth.' Usually these personal reactions lie concealed from view; and yet they provide the assessor of a theory of sexuality with a set of privileged explananda, to which the theory-whatever its merits in explaining the data it adduces explicitly itself-will inevitably be held accountable. It is my idea, therefore, to set out what I take to be some privileged explananda, accounts of sexual behavior and of reasoning about it that I believe to be of sufficient interest and depth that a theory that cannot do well by them has a lot of explaining to do.

Modeling and analysis of fixed frequency phase-shift modulated tertiary-side parallel-tuned resonant DC-DC converter (1993)

The authors present a generalized model and analysis of the fixed frequency phase-shift modulated DC/DC resonant power converter with a tuned parallel resonant circuit on the tertiary winding of the high-frequency transformer. A harmonic equivalent circuit model and frequency-domain analysis, which incorporate the effect of the leakage inductance of the high-frequency transformer, are used to develop generalized equations. Steady-state characteristics curves are presented to describe the effect of the leakage inductance and resonant circuit parameters on the performance of the converter. It is shown that, with a tuned parallel resonant circuit on the tertiary winding, the converter can be operated at higher frequency with efficiency higher than 80%. This resonant convertor also provides greater flexibility in selecting the resonant capacitor and an opportunity to integrate the series and parallel inductors with the output transformer. The tuned parallel resonant branch also results in low total harmonic distortion and improved regulation of the converter output voltage.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Intervalence band absorption in InP and related materials for optoelectronic device modeling (2000)

Intervalence band absorption spectra of InP and related materials over a range of temperatures are calculated using different k⋅p methods for band structure. It is shown that band structure models which neglect valence band intermixing effects, such as the Kane model, fail to provide any quantitative agreement with experiment. However, the Luttinger–Kohn model [Phys. Rev. 97, 869 (1955)] if properly fitted, does yield quantitatively accurate results for InP, GaAs, and InGaAs, in wide spectral and temperature ranges of interest for practical optoelectronic devices without adjusting the effective masses and split-off energy.
Performance Evaluation of Combined L1/L5 Kalman Filter-Based Tracking versus Standalone L1/L5 Tracking in Challenging Environments (2009)

The ever-increasing demand on GPS to perform in
challenging environments is the main motivation behind
this research. Different challenging environments include
–but are not limited to– suburban environments suffering
moderate multipath, urban canyons suffering strong
multipath and fading, indoor environments suffering
multipath and weak signals. With the existence of these
different scenarios that require higher sensitivity of the
GPS, more research is directed towards enhancing both the
acquisition and tracking capabilities.
Considering signal tracking, which is the focus of this
paper, several solutions have been proposed to enable high
sensitivity tracking. Using one signal, increasing the
integration time is one means for enhancing the tracking
sensitivity, though it always faces the need to estimate the
data bits correctly.
New GPS signals, e.g. L2C, L5 are now available, in
addition to the conventional L1 C/A code signal. Being
transmitted from the same space vehicle through the same
environment, the errors between these signals are
correlated. Hence, an increase in tracking sensitivity can
be achieved by combining two or more of these signals.
Megahed et al (2009) have investigated the idea of
combining the L1 C/A code and the L5 signals using one
Kalman filter, where the correlator outputs of the two
signals are used to estimate the tracking errors. However,
it compared the combined Kalman filter to the traditional
tracking loops. That comparison provides an estimate of
the performance of the suggested tracking filter. Yet it is
lacking a completely fair comparison due to the difference
in nature between the Kalman filter and the traditional
tracking loops in general.
To provide an entirely fair comparison, this paper
continues the analysis of the combined Kalman filter, but
comparing its performance to a similar Kalman filter that
is used separately for tracking each of the two signals. The
performance of both the separate and the combined
Kalman filters are compared in environments suffering
urban canyon multipath, moderate ionospheric errors, in
addition to a motion model of a typical vehicle. The
comparison criteria include the tracking loop lock
indicators –the phase and frequency lock indicators– of
both the L1 and the L5 signals. In addition, the Kalman
filters state estimates and standard deviations are analyzed
to confirm the quality of the tracking.
Introduction (2020)

This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book offers an evaluation of the Statement in terms of the extent to which the principles reflect the doctrinal or theological position of the tradition and the value of the Statement for the tradition and how it might be developed further. The regulatory instruments that are studied are styled variously as law, order, or polity, depending on the tradition in question. The ten traditions are Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, Methodist, Reformed, Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, and United Churches. The study of religious law has traditionally focused on the examination of the norms and juridical traditions of single world faiths, notably Jewish law, Islamic law, and Hindu law; and Islamic law and Jewish law, for example, have themselves been compared.
Compact Doherty Power Amplifier Design for 2 2 Multiple-Input Multiple-Output System (2016)

A triple-transistor Doherty power amplifier (PA) architecture that supports two identical input and output signals is investigated. Two peaking PAs and a single carrier PA are arranged to operate at high and low power regions. This structure can be used in 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple-output transceiver. Compared with classic configuration that needs four transistors to realize the same functionality, the proposed design greatly reduces the overall circuit size and cost. Theoretical analysis is given for deep understanding of the operational principle regarding this novel Doherty PA. To validate the effectiveness, a prototype PA corresponding to the proposed architecture is implemented based on Cree's gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor transistors. Experimental results demonstrate very high drain efficiencies at both saturation and back-off regions.
연구논문 : 탐조관광 구성요건에 대한 고찰 (2008)

This research is a basic study to construct the guideline to the development of birdwatching tours, for the purpose of coping with the demand of birdwatching tours that are on steady increase. Based on the characteristics and the case studies of birdwatching tours, this paper examined the overall designing elements of birdwatching tours. For the efficient operation of birdwatching tours, it was found that (1) the function of ecological habitation, (2) the function of birdwatching activities, and (3) the function of learning and support would be necessary, and that the spatial structure that these functions are integrated would be necessary. Especially, the function of learning and support or the space supports effective birdwatching activities and induce consumption in an area so it is expected to play an important role in the development of birdwatching tours in migratory bird visiting areas. On the other hand, in the operation of birdwatching tours, it was found that the network with the relevant organizations and the system of eco ranger would play a big role.
In-situ Optical Sensing for the Detection and Quantification of Pathogen Indicator Organisms (2022)

In-situ sensing of pathogens of concern in waters is a need for water monitoring agencies. The unpredictable, rapid fluctuations in indicator organism (Escherichia coliÌ¢âÂ'EC) concentrations renders current standards and methods both untimely and unrepresentative of the water body as a whole. The use of glucuronides with a fluorescent label allows EC detection by identifying ÌÄü-glucuronidase (GUS) expressed through EC's natural metabolic processes. This activity can be quantified in a stop-flow sensor and correlated via a quantification curve back to initial EC concentrations. A fluorescent labeled glucuronide that is soluble and highly fluorescent at natural water pHs is also necessary. The current lack of understanding of the factors that influence GUS synthesis and expression in natural waters is addressed in this dissertation. The information presented here increases the accuracy of an in-situ optical sensor. This dissertation reports for the first time the Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters of GUS using the substrate Carboxyumbelliferyl-ÌÄü-D-glucuronide (CUG) as Km=0.910, Vmax = 0.041, Vmax/Km 0.045 mM min-1; optimal pH is 6.5Ìâå±1.0; optimal temperature is 38ÌÜÁC; CUG hydrolysis is not significantly affected by heavy solvents suggesting proton transfer and solvent addition that occur during hydrolysis are not limiting steps; GUS preferentially binds to MUG in comparison to CUG. Additionally, it is found fluorescent reagents facilitate the induction of GUS in EC; increases in GUS activity per culturable EC cell in marine water is likely due to breakdown of cell wall and release of intracellular enzymes; EC GUS expression in natural waters does not significantly correlate to initial physiochemical water parameters or EC concentrations. Benefits of this research include a better understanding of GUS production in natural waters; a better understanding of GUS expression in typical sensor growing conditions; the characterization of a soluble fluorescent reagent ideal for in-situ optical sensing; the use of an optical sensor for the detection and partial quantification of pathogen indicator organisms.

The Influence of the Exit Velocity Profile on the Noise of a Jet (1954)

Summary The noise levels of a jet issuing from a long pipe are compared with those of a jet having a square velocity profile at the exit. A subsonic noise reduction of between 2 and 5 decibels for various conditions is found for the case of the flow emerging with an approximately “turbulent pipe-flow” velocity profile for the same maximum jet velocity, but this is at the expense of a loss in thrust of a quarter. On comparison with a jet of smaller diameter which has an equal thrust for the same maximum jet velocity, it is found that the changes in noise level are rather smaller. For jets of equal diameters, the effects on the subsonic aerodynamic noise generated of a reduction of velocity gradient near the boundary are more than offset by the increased velocities necessary near the centre of the jet to obtain equal thrust. It is concluded that if the effect of differences in initial turbulence can be neglected the use of an auxiliary flow forming a comparatively thin sheath of slower moving fluid at the exit is not likely to result in large decreases in the subsonic noise level, and that a general reduction in jet velocity is more effective. Above the critical pressure larger reductions of up to 10 decibels are found. These are consistent with a delay of the onset of the self-maintained shock-produced noise.

Flavors and odors of fish oils (1971)

Abstract Off odors and flavors in fish oils arise from contamination from metabolites, from the spoilage of fish protein, or from oxidation products of the oil itself. The resulting odors and flavors can render the oil less desirable for many applications. Odors or flavors in the flesh of animals or poultry fed fish oil come more from the polyunsaturated nature of the fish oil than from the oxidation products or flavor and odor of the oil that is fed. Odors and flavors can be removed by refining methods or in some cases, masked by use of certain additives.
Thermal Effects in a Nd:YAG Laser (1970)

A theoretical model for the thermal lens and birefringent effects induced in a continuously pumped Nd:YAG rod is developed. Experimental measurements of these effects using a 6328-Å probe are described and compared to theory. Excellent agreement between the two types of measurements and theory is obtained. The thermally birefringent and bifocusing phenomena are suggested as causes of reductions in the polarized and fundamental TEM00 powers from a high-power multimode Nd:YAG laser. Typical results are described using a laser which operates in the 200−300-W range of average powers.
Hidden momentum, field momentum, and electromagnetic impulse (2009)

Electromagnetic fields carry energy, momentum, and angular momentum. The momentum density, ϵ0(E×B), accounts (among other things) for the pressure of light. But even static fields can carry momentum, and this would appear to contradict a general theorem that the total momentum of a closed system is zero if its center of energy is at rest. In such cases, there must be some other (nonelectromagnetic) momenta that cancel the field momentum. What is the nature of this “hidden momentum” and what happens to it when the electromagnetic fields are turned off?
