Connecting the Physical World with Arduino in SECE (2013)

The Internet of Things (IoT) enables the physical world to be connected and controlled over the Internet. This paper presents a smart gateway platform that connects everyday objects such as lights, thermometers, and TVs over the Internet. The proposed hardware architecture is implemented on an Arduino platform with a variety of off the shelf home automation technologies such as Zigbee and X10. Using the microcontroller-based platform, the SECE (Sense Everything, Control Everything) system allows users to create various IoT services such as monitoring sensors, controlling actuators, triggering action events, and periodic sensor reporting. We give an overview of the Arduino-based smart gateway architecture and its integration into SECE.
Manipulability servoing in null space for bilateral motion control of redundant manipulators (2011)

This paper proposes a manipulability servoing control method in null space for redundant bilateral control systems. In order to bi-directionally transmit vivid haptic sensation between motion control systems, both synchronization of position signals and “action and reaction” law of force signals must simultaneously be achieved. The proposed method adopts modal decoupling method based on Hadamard matrix to bilateral workspace control. Then, this paper investigates the possibility that the proposed method realizes the transmission of haptic sensation and the manipulability servoing between redundant haptic motion systems. In this paper, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by simulation results and experimental results.
Bacterial Sphingomyelinase is a State-Dependent Inhibitor of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) (2017)

Sphingomyelinase C (SMase) inhibits CFTR chloride channel activity in multiple cell systems, an effect that could exacerbate disease in CF and COPD patients. The mechanism by which sphingomyelin catalysis inhibits CFTR is not known but evidence suggests that it occurs independently of CFTR's regulatory "R" domain. In this study we utilized the Xenopus oocyte expression system to shed light on how CFTR channel activity is reduced by SMase. We found that the pathway leading to inhibition is not membrane delimited and that inhibited CFTR channels remain at the cell membrane, indicative of a novel silencing mechanism. Consistent with an effect on CFTR gating behavior, we found that altering gating kinetics influenced the sensitivity to inhibition by SMase. Specifically, increasing channel activity by introducing the mutation K1250A or pretreating with the CFTR potentiator VX-770 (Ivacaftor) imparted resistance to inhibition. In primary bronchial epithelial cells, we found that basolateral, but not apical, application of SMase leads to a redistribution of sphingomyelin and a reduction in forskolin- and VX-770-stimulated currents. Taken together, these data suggest that SMase inhibits CFTR channel function by locking channels into a closed state and that endogenous CFTR in HBEs is affected by SMase activity.

HiPak Modules with SPT + Technology Rated up to 3.6kA (2006)

This paper presents the performance of a 3600A/1700V HiPak2 module using the recently developed SPT + IGBT technology. This new platform is being progressively implemented across the voltage range of 1200V to 4500V throughout 2006. Additionally, the smaller HiPak1 which will also exploit SPT + technology, will be introduced. The SPT + IGBT HiPak modules achieve the same desirable switching characteristics and SOA performance of the current SPT generation, while exhibiting lower over-all losses and increased current ratings.
Radiation-Related Heart Disease: Current Knowledge and Future Prospects (2020)

The heart has traditionally been considered a radio-resistant organ that would be unaffected by cardiac doses below about 30 Gray. During the last few years, however, evidence that radiation-related heart disease can occur following lower doses has emerged from several sources. These include studies of breast cancer patients, who received mean cardiac doses of 3–17 Gray when given radiotherapy following surgery, and studies of survivors of the atomic bombings of Japan who received doses of up to 4 Gray.

The adsorption and dissociation of methyl isocyanide on Rh(111) (1983)

The coordination chemistry of methyl isocyanide (CH3NC), and CO are similar in a number of transition metal complexes, and it is therefore of interest to consider the surface chemistry of these molecules. We have used high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) to characterize the interaction of CH3NC with Rh(111). At 120 K, EELS measurements indicate that CH3NC adsorbs nondissociatively as a bridged species. As the coverage is increased, vibrational loss features attributable to singly coordinated bonding occur, and multilayers of CH3NC eventually develop. In contrast, CO bonds initially to Rh in atop sites, with a bridged form occurring only at higher coverages. Thermally induced changes in the adsorbed CH3NC have also been monitored; TPD shows that H2, HCN, and N2 are liberated from the surface between 350 and 850 K, and EELS has been used to follow the vibrational mode changes that accompany decomposition. Additional insight was provided by adsorbing CH3NC onto surfaces predosed with O2 or CO, both of which produced some site blocking. Other interactional effects include CO and perhaps carbonate formation when CH3NC reacts with oxygen, and rapid removal of the intensity of the EELS modes associated with CO when CH3NC is adsorbed onto preadsorbed CO. Comparisons are made with previous results for CH3NC adsorption on Ni(111), Ag(311), and alumina-supported Rh clusters.
In-process measurement of micro-stereolithography using surface plasmon resonance substrate (2016)

A surface plasmon resonance measurement has been applied to meet the strong demand for high resolution in-process measurement on Micro-stereolithography. This multi-layer substrate composed by a PLZT layer embedded between two metal thin films, theoretically, can effectively adjust sensitivity depth of phase-detection based surface plasmon resonance by controlling the applied electric voltage on PLZT. In addition PLZT based substrate has been theoretically evaluated. It has been confirmed that a high-resolution detection at arbitrarily refractive index range can be achieved by not only dynamical adjusting incident angle but also a high controlling the applied voltage on PLZT.
Classification of undulated wavefront aberration in projection optics by considering its physical effects (2007)

Although wavefront aberration in stepper projection optics has been classified with respect to its spatial frequency on the pupil, the physical meaning of this classification has not been clarified. In this paper, we show that wavefront aberration can be classified into figure aberration, random aberration, and nonconserved aberration, by taking into consideration the theoretical effect of undulated wavefront aberration with respect to its spatial frequency. We also show that the predictions of this theoretical classification coincide with both the results of numerical simulations for random aberration and the experimentally measured values of local flare size. Since our classification has a clear physical meaning, it will be valuable and applicable in developing not only stepper projection optics but also other more general optics.

29: A Novel Triple Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant (UCBT) Strategy to Promote NK Cell Immunotherapy (Unit 1) with a Fully Ablative Preparative Regimen Followed By a Double UCBT in Patients with Refractory AML (2007)

Previously, we tested adoptive transfer of haploidentical peripheral blood (PB) derived NK cells without transplantation in patients with refractory AML and demonstrated a correlation between in vivo NK cell expansion and complete remission. This therapy is limited by: 1) the inability to expand NK cells in most patients, 2) prolonged neutropenia and 3) inconsistent efficacy. We hypothesized that UCB-derived NK cells may show better in vivo expansion because UCB is rich in NK cell precursors. Therefore, we tested our triple UCBT strategy in patients with refractory relapsed AML. UCB-derived NK cells (matched at 3 HLA loci and KIR-ligand mismatched when possible) were infused (after CD3 depletion and IL-2 activation) on day –12 after conditioning with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and TBI. Subcutaneous IL-2 (10 MU × 6) was given over 10 days to facilitate in vivo NK cell expansion. On day 0, two UCB units (≥ 4/6 match) were transplanted (DCBT). Ten patients have been treated and unexpectedly, four patients exhibited neutrophil engraftment from the processed and IL-2 activated NK cell Unit #1. One patient developed cyclophosphamide induced cardiac failure and died prior to DCBT. All others tolerated the NK infusion and IL-2 without unexpected toxicity and were leukemia-free at the time of engraftment. Two remain alive and disease free at 3+ and 8+ months and three died disease free of TRM. Four have relapsed after initially clearing their leukemia. These data suggest UCB NK cells may be administered safely and, despite CD3 depletion and IL-2 activation (ex vivo and in vivo), provide long-term engraftment potential that may dominate over unmanipulated UCB infused subsequently. In summary, UCB is a rich source of NK precursors capable of in vivo expansion which are potentially better suited than adult NK cells for use in treatment of patients with refractory AML.

Allelic variation of soybean flower color gene W4 encoding dihydroflavonol 4-reductase 2 (2014)

Complete loss-of-function of DFR2 gene leads to near white flowers. A new allele of the W4 locus, w4-lp regulates light purple flowers. Single amino acid substitution was associated with light purple flowers. Flower petals of T369 had higher levels of DFR2 gene expression and contained unique dihydroflavonols that are absent in soybean and G. soja. Thus, mutants of the DFR2 gene have unique flavonoid compositions and display a wide variety of flower color patterns in soybean, from near white, light purple, dilute purple to pale.
Parameter estimation of an asymmetric vocal-fold system from glottal area time series using chaos synchronization (2006)

In this paper, we apply an iterative parameter adaption scheme based on chaos synchronization to estimate system parameters of the asymmetric vocal folds from glottal area time series. The original asymmetric vocal-fold system associated with recurrent laryngeal paralysis shows chaotic vibrations with positive Lyapunov exponents. Aperiodic glottal area time series from the original system will be applied as the feedback variable coupling the simulative and the original vocal-fold systems. The parameter adaption technique based on chaos synchronization is employed to manipulate the simulative system parameters. The chaotic vibrations, system parameters, and the bifurcation diagram of the original vocal-fold system can be exactly reproduced in the simulative system, and the two chaotic systems can be synchronized. Furthermore, the effects of noise, sampling rate, and equation difference due to nonlinear spring terms on vocal-fold parameter estimations are investigated. Despite large noise perturbations, large equation differences, and low sampling rate, the parameter adaption scheme can effectively estimate the original vocal-fold system parameters. This study provides a theoretical base to apply chaos synchronization to estimate the vocal-fold system parameters from the glottal area data and show its potential application in laryngeal physiology.

Effects of dietary lipid sources on fatty acid composition of rotifer Brachionus plicatilis (2001)

Rotifer Brachionus plicatilis was used as the test species.The diets with different lipid sources were as follows: (1) Baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisice (control); (2)algae,Nannochlorpsis oculata(diet A);(3) fish oil(5%) + soybean lecithin (5%) + Baker's yeast(90%)(diet B); (4) fish oil (10%) + Baker's yeast(90%)(diet C). The results show that: (1) Considerable difference of fatty acid composition exists in the rotifers fed corresponding diets compared with control, and the highest level of n 3 HUFA fatty acids in the rotifers fed diet C is obtained due to high level of n 3HUFA content in diet. The conclusion is that the HUFA content of diet is a major factor in affecting HUFA levels in the rotifers. (2) The effect of dietary lipid on the fatty acid composition is not only based on dietary level of HUFA, but also the lipid chemical types. (3) The method using dried diet (yeast) mixed with fish oil for the rotifers to enrich n 3HUFA is suitable for large scale rotifer production mainly for the good effect of HUFA enrichment and avoidance of water contamination.
Anisotropic local high-confidence voting for accurate stereo correspondence (2008)

We present a local area-based, discontinuity-preserving stereo matching algorithm that achieves high quality results near depth discontinuities as well as in homogeneous regions. To address the well-known challenge of defining appropriate support windows for local stereo methods, we use the anisotropic Local Polynomial Approximation (LPA) - Intersection of Confidence Intervals (ICI) technique. It can adaptively select a nearoptimal anisotropic local neighborhood for each pixel in the image. Leveraging this robust pixel-wise shape-adaptive support window, the proposed stereo method performs a novel matching cost aggregation step and an effective disparity refinement scheme entirely within a local high-confidence voting framework. Evaluation using the benchmark Middlebury stereo database shows that our method outperforms other local stereo methods, and it is even better than some algorithms using advanced but computationally complicated global optimization techniques.
Follow-up study of postoperative patients with thyroid cancer by thallium-201 scintigraphy and serum thyroglobulin measurement. (1991)

The utility of 201TI scintigraphy and thyroglobulin measurement in the follow-up observation of postoperative patients with thyroid cancer was evaluated. Thallium-201 scintigraphy was performed in 149 postoperative patients with thyroid cancer. Serum thyroglobulin concentration was concomitantly evaluated in 86 patients. Among 55 patients with positive 201TI scans, 51 patients (92.7%) had recurrent diseases, while 80 of 94 patients (85.1%) with negative scans were free of disease. Twenty-five of 28 patients (89.3%) with elevated thyroglobulin levels were recurrent and 43 of 58 patients (74.1%) with normal thyroglobulin level had no recurrence nor metastasis. All 19 patients with positive 201TI scans and elevated thyroglobulin level had recurrent lesions. Seven of 10 patients with negative 201TI scans and elevated thyroglobulin level showed the presence of metastasis. By concomitant measurement of serum thyroglobulin, more than half of the recurrent patients with negative 201TI scintigraphy were detected. Both 201TI scintigraphy and serum thyroglobulin measurement should be undertaken in the follow-up evaluation of postoperative patients with thyroid cancer.
&lt;title&gt;Changes in calcium transport in mammalian sperm mitochondria and plasma membrane due to 633-nm and 780-nm irradiation&lt;/title&gt; (1996)

The effect of light on calcium transport in mammalian sperm mitochondria and plasma membrane was studied. Digitonin treated bovine spermatozoa and plasma membrane vesicles were irradiated with a He-Ne laser and a 780 nm diode laser at various intensities and energy doses and Ca<SUP>2+</SUP> uptake was measured by the filtration method. It was found that there is an accelerated Ca<SUP>2+</SUP> uptake by the mitochondria after low He-Ne light and inhibition after high intensity irradiation. The ATP-dependent Ca<SUP>2+</SUP> uptake by the sperm plasma membrane vesicles was not changed due to He-Ne irradiation. It was enhanced due to 780 nm irradiation.
Gravity-Induced Convection during Directional Solidification of Hypermonotectic Alloys (2006)

A two-phase volume-averaging model developed for the simulation of the dynamic decomposition and solidification of hypermonotectic alloys was used to study the occurrence of convection phenomena during directional solidification of a hypermonotectic alloy (Al-10 wt.%Bi) under terrestrial condition. The model accounts for nucleation and growth of secondary phase droplets, Marangoni and Stokes forces, solute partitioning, heat release due to decomposition and solidification. It is shown that the appearance and growth of secondary droplets is accompanied with a continuous downwards motion of droplets, which rapidly becomes unstable. After relaxation of this dynamic motion the advancing solidification front freezes in the resulting non-uniform droplet distribution.
