Hip abduction weakness in elite junior footballers is common but easy to correct quickly: a prospective sports team cohort based study (2012)

Hip abduction weakness has never been documented on a population basis as a common finding in a healthy group of athletes and would not normally be found in an elite adolescent athlete. This study aimed to show that hip abduction weakness not only occurs in this group but also is common and easy to correct with an unsupervised home based program. A prospective sports team cohort based study was performed with thirty elite adolescent under-17 Australian Rules Footballers in the Australian Institute of Sport/Australian Football League Under-17 training academy. The players had their hip abduction performance assessed and were then instructed in a hip abduction muscle training exercise. This was performed on a daily basis for two months and then they were reassessed. The results showed 14 of 28 athletes who completed the protocol had marked weakness or a side-to-side difference of more than 25% at baseline. Two months later ten players recorded an improvement of ≥ 80% in their recorded scores. The mean muscle performance on the right side improved from 151 Newton (N) to 202 N (p<0.001) while on the left, the recorded results improved from 158 N to 223 N (p<0.001). The baseline values show widespread profound deficiencies in hip abduction performance not previously reported. Very large performance increases can be achieved, unsupervised, in a short period of time to potentially allow large clinically significant gains. This assessment should be an integral part of preparticipation screening and assessed in those with lower limb injuries. This particular exercise should be used clinically and more research is needed to determine its injury prevention and performance enhancement implications.
Sustainable up-cycling of spent electric vehicle anodes into solution processable graphene nanomaterials (2022)

A major transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is underway globally, as countries target reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector. As this rapid growth continues, significant challenges remain around how to sustainably manage the accompanying large volumes of waste from end-of-life lithium-ion batteries that contain valuable rare earth and critical materials. Here, we show that high-shear exfoliation in aqueous-surfactants can up- cycle spent graphite anodes recovered from an EV into few-layer graphene dispersions. For the same hydrodynamic conditions, we report a process yield that is 37.5% higher when using spent graphite anode as the precursor material over high purity graphite flakes. Increasing surfactant concentration, the average atomic layer number reduces in a similar way to high purity precursors. We find that the electrical conductance of few-layer graphene produced using the graphite flake precursor is superior, and identify the limitations when using aqueous-surfactant solutions as the exfoliation medium for spent graphite anode material. Using these non-toxic solution processable nanomaterial dispersions, functional paper-based electronics were fabricated, illustrating the potential for end-to-end, environmentally sustainable up-cycling of spent EV anodes into new technologies.

CpG-A D19 appeared to be a promising adjuvant for an oral F4 subunit vaccine formulated with CMS excipient as monolithic tablets. This matrix afforded gastro-protection and delivered the F4 fimbriae at their intestinal sites.
A Comparison of the Costs and Benefits of Bacterial Gene Expression (2016)

To study how a bacterium allocates its resources, we compared the costs and benefits of most (86%) of the proteins in Escherichia coli K-12 during growth in minimal glucose medium. The cost or investment in each protein was estimated from ribosomal profiling data, and the benefit of each protein was measured by assaying a library of transposon mutants. We found that proteins that are important for fitness are usually highly expressed, and 95% of these proteins are expressed at above 13 parts per million (ppm). Conversely, proteins that do not measurably benefit the host (with a benefit of less than 5% per generation) tend to be weakly expressed, with a median expression of 13 ppm. In aggregate, genes with no detectable benefit account for 31% of protein production, or about 22% if we correct for genetic redundancy. Although some of the apparently unnecessary expression could have subtle benefits in minimal glucose medium, the majority of the burden is due to genes that are important in other conditions. We propose that at least 13% of the cell's protein is "on standby" in case conditions change.

Moisture Distribution during Conventional or Electrical Resistance Oven Baking of Bread Dough and Subsequent Storage (2014)

Electrical resistance oven (ERO) baking processes bread dough with little temperature gradient in the baking dough. Heating of the dough by means of an ERO is based on the principles of Joule's first law and Ohm's law. This study compared the changes in moisture distribution and physical changes in starch of breads conventionally baked or using an ERO. The moisture contents in fresh ERO breads are generally lower than those in conventional breads. During storage of conventionally baked breads, water migrates from the crumb to the crust and moisture contents decrease throughout the bread crumb. Evidently, less moisture redistribution occurs in ERO breads. Also, the protons of ERO bread constituents were less mobile than their counterparts in conventional bread. Starch retrogradation occurs to similar extents in conventional and ERO bread. As a result, the changes in proton mobility cannot be attributed to differences in levels of retrograded starch and seem to be primarily determined by the overall lower moisture content.

유전알고리즘을 이용한 대형 디젤 엔진 운전 조건 최적화 (2005)

In this paper, optimized operating parameters were found using multi-dimensional engine simulation software (KIVA-3V) and micro-genetic algorithm for heavy duty diesel engine. The engine operating condition considered was at 1,737 rev/min and 57% load. Engine simulation model was validated using an engine equipped with a high pressure electronic unit injector (HEUI) system. Three important parameters were used for the optimization boost pressure, EGR rate and start of injection timing. Numerical optimization identified HCCI-like combustion characteristics showing significant improvements for the soot and NOx emissions, The optimized soot and NOx emissions were reduced to 0.005 g/kW-hr and 1.33 g/kW-hr, respectively. Moreover. the optimum results met EPA 2007 mandates at the operating point considered.
Lightweight, pollution-attack resistant multicast authentication scheme (2006)

Authentication is an important security measure for multicast applications, providing receivers with confidence that the packets they receive are valid. Simply signing every multicast packet with a digital signature incurs high overhead; therefore, a scheme such as signature amortization helps reduce this overhead. To tolerate packet loss, erasure codes are employed to enhance signature amortization. However, the use of erasure codes introduces pollution attack, an attack in which the adversary injects packets to disrupt the erasure decoding procedure and consequently denies the authentication service to the receiver. Unfortunately, current solutions to pollution attack are computationally intensive and inefficient. To cope with this problem, we propose a new lightweight, pollution-attack resistant multicast authentication scheme (PARM), which generates evidence that receivers can validate on a fast, per-packet basis. This approach effectively resists pollution attacks and has better performance than previously proposed solutions.

Synthesis and Solution-processed Field Effect Transistors of Liquid Crystalline Oligothiophenes (2007)

Abstract An organic field-effect transistor (OFET), showing a mobility 0.015 cm2 V−1 s−1 and an on/off ratio 104, which are as high as those of a dry-processed OFET of oligothiophenes, has been built by wet process using a solution of a newly synthesized quaterthiophenes-base liquid crystalline molecule.
Optical Performance Of Holographic Kinoforms (1988)

The optical properties of holographic kinoforms are described. It is shown that paraxial designs are not adequate for f-numbers less than approximately F/10. A non-paraxial design is introduced which retains the high diffraction efficiency of the paraxial designs, yet also produces a non-aberrated diffracted wavefront for the design wavelength. Aberration calculations and computer calculations, based on the Huygens-Fresnel principle, of the point spread functions for these elements show the necessity of using the non-paraxial design.
An estimation method of third-order PIM on coaxial cable assembly using one CW (2016)

This paper presents a new third order passive intermodulation distortion (PIM) estimation method that can simplify a PIM evaluation system. The proposed method requires only one signal source and the power level of PIM is estimated from the third order harmonics generated at a device under test. The evaluation system for coaxial cables is constructed and the third order harmonics generated on coaxial cables are measured. The feasibility of the proposed method is discussed using these measured results and the estimated power level of PIM.

Children's in TV commercial's: review of pharmaceuticals and health advertisements (2012)

Children's who do not have their own income, independent decision making are perceived to be the important, unique and potential target market. They do have large potential market for the products they usually consume from birth to teenage and thus their participation in the decision making become essential to an extent being a end consumer. But, questions come why they are engaged in the advertisement which directly do not relate to the product they consume or use. Are they only medium for the effective communication or they are having significant impact on the viewer psychology? Analysis of literature available shows that they tend to have the emotion and psychological impact on the customer. In this paper, we list out the various advertisement from the Pharma and Healthcare industry where children's from 3–12 years are placed in such a way either they create direct product purchase appeal or tend to show certain psychological impact that spell bound the viewer and make him associated with the product. We explored around 99 TVC related to Healthcare/Pharmaceuticals and find that in 30% of them children's are used in way or another. In this paper 12 best advertisements where children's are found highly effective are discussed.

언센티드 칼만 필터를 이용한 진자 파라미터 추정에 관한 연구 (2011)

The method of parameter estimation of dynamic system is proposed in this paper. The dynamic system is typically the pendulum. It is important to estimate spring coefficient(k), coefficient of friction(μ), etc. which is difficult to measure in the pendulum dynamic. And most of the pendulum equation is expressed as continuous-time nonlinear. So, to estimate parameter values of the inner equation is difficult. Therefore, in this paper the Unscented Kalman Filter(UKF) is applied in parameter estimation. Its effectiveness is simulated by using the 2 degree of freedom(2DOF) system to estimate the parameters of a continuous-time nonlinear system.
269: A Phase II Open Label Pilot Trial of Empiric Daptomycin Treatment for Hematology-Oncology Patients with Febrile Neutropenia (FN) (2008)

FN warrants prompt attention and treatment due to potential for associated morbidity and mortality. Broad spectrum antibiotics are guided by putative causative organisms. Initially gram-negative and then gram positive organisms have emerged as infectious culprits. Therefore vancomycin is often added in FN patients still febrile after 72 hours of initial antibiotic therapy. Emerging antibiotic resistance by gram-positive organisms and the bacteriostatic nature of vancomycin, make the study of new gram-positive therapies like the novel bactericidal, antibiotic daptomycin, critical. This pilot study aims to determine initial efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK), of daptomycin substituted for vancomycin in FN patients. FN patients, without pneumonia, were enrolled and received daptomycin per the current IDSA FN guidelines. Patients received 6 mg/kg as a 30 minute intravenous infusion every 24 hours. Blood samples for measurement of plasma daptomycin concentrations were collected for PK analysis. Twenty-eight patients, 19 men/9 women, age range 24–74 years old (median 53) have been treated. Their weights ranged from 56.2–137 kg (median of 89.9 kg). The patient's had the following malignancies: 10 AML, 6 ALL, 2 multiple myeloma, 2 Hodgkin's disease, 2 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 1 APL, and 1 germ cell tumor. Ten patients were post autologous and 5 post allogeneic transplants, with 13 receiving non-transplant chemotherapy. The median and mean time to reach an afebrile state was 4 days. Mean duration receiving daptomycin was 11 days (median 8, range 3–40 days). Infectious organisms, identified for 16/28 patients, included: coagulase-negative S. aureus, alpha-hemolytic streptococcus, S. mitis, S. oralis, P. aeruginosa, K. pneumonia, Corynebacterium, and E. coli. One patient developed a drug rash which abated after the cessation of daptomycin, and 1 experienced mental status changes considered possibly related to taking daptomycin. One patient stopped daptomycin secondary to parotitis for which no organism was identified but improved when the patient was changed to vancomycin. No patients experienced myositis or elevations in CK levels while on daptomycin. Daptomycin was safe with no breakthrough gram positive infections and a mean time to defervescence of 4 days. This pilot study supports future evaluation of the use of daptomycin in this setting. Compelte data, including PK to be available for presentation.
WING SHAPE VARIATION ASSOCIATED WITH MIMICRY IN BUTTERFLIES (2013)

Mimetic resemblance in unpalatable butterflies has been studied by evolutionary biologists for over a century, but has largely focused on the convergence in wing color patterns. In Heliconius numata, discrete color-pattern morphs closely resemble comimics in the distantly related genus Melinaea. We examine the possibility that the shape of the butterfly wing also shows adaptive convergence. First, simple measures of forewing dimensions were taken of individuals in a cross between H. numata morphs, and showed quantitative differences between two of the segregating morphs, f. elegans and f. silvana. Second, landmark-based geometric morphometric and elliptical Fourier outline analyses were used to more fully characterize these shape differences. Extension of these techniques to specimens from natural populations suggested that, although many of the coexisting morphs could not be discriminated by shape, the differences we identified between f. elegans and f. silvana hold in the wild. Interestingly, despite extensive overlap, the shape variation between these two morphs is paralleled in their respective Melinaea comimics. Our study therefore suggests that wing-shape variation is associated with mimetic resemblance, and raises the intriguing possibility that the supergene responsible for controlling the major switch in color pattern between morphs also contributes to wing shape differences in H. numata.

Performance Evaluation and Enhancement of Dendro (2010)

DENDRO is a collection of tools for solving Finite Element problems in parallel. This package is written in C++ using the standard template library (STL) and uses the Message Passing (MPI). Dendro uses an octree data-structure to solve image-registration problems using finite element techniques. For analyzing the behavior of the package in terms of speed-up and scalability, it is important to know which part of the package is consuming most of the execution-time. The single node performance and the overall performance of the package is dependent on the code-organization and class-hierarchy. We used the PETSC profiler to collect the performance statistics and instrument the code to know which part of the code takes most of the time. Along with the function-specific execution timings, PETSC profiler also provides the information regarding how many floating point operations is being performed in total and on average (FLOP/second). PETSC also provides information related to memory usage and number of MPI messages and reductions being performed to execute that particular function. We have analyzed these performance-statistics to provide some guidelines to how we can make Dendro more efficient by optimizing certain functions. We obtained around 12X speedup over the performance of (default) Dendro by using compiler-provided optimizations and achieved more than 65% speedup over compiler optimized performance (20X over the naive Dendro performance) by manually tuning some-block of code along with the compiler-optimizations.

Improvement of SC-1 Bath Stability by Complexing Agents (2002)

The improvement in SC-1 bath lifetime was studied by adding complexing agents: TEA, EDTA, CDTA, DTPA and DTPMP, to a bath, which was intentionally contaminated with a multimetal standard solution. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the bath was monitored in situ by an optical analyzer. Adsorption of metals to wafers was analyzed by spinning cleaning solutions, containing metals and complexing agents, on wafers. Metal concentrations were measured by TXRF and GFAAS combined with VPD sample preparation.
