The use of the genetic algorithm for in-situ efficiency measurement of an induction motor (2002)

In-situ efficiency determination of working motors in an industrial plant, if done nonintrusively, is less expensive than laboratory tests, which need disconnection of the motors from the loads. This paper presents a new approach to nonintrusive in-situ efficiency determination of an induction motor. By monitoring the input voltages, the input currents, the input power and the motor speed, an equivalent circuit based optimization process using the genetic algorithm calculates the motor efficiency. The convergence and the precision have been improved by taking into account several load points in the objective function, as well as the temperature dependency of the stator and rotor resistances. A sensitivity analysis of the method to parameter changes is also presented. Experimental results confirm. The validity of this method.
Multiphoton absorption measurements in CF3H (1992)

The infrared multiphoton absorption spectrum of CF3H has been studied by photoacoustic spectroscopy throughout the spectral region accessible with a CO2 laser. In the 10 mu m P and R branches of the CO2 laser, only weak absorption was found. However in the 9 mu m branches of the CO2 laser, absorption from the first overtone of the upsilon 6 band of CF3H was observed in the P branch and absorption by the upsilon 2, upsilon 5 and upsilon 3+ upsilon 6 polyad of CF3H was observed in the R branch. As the laser fluence was increased, non-linearity in the absorption in the upsilon 2, upsilon 5 and upsilon 3+ upsilon 6 polyad was seen, commencing at the 9R30 laser line at a fluence of approximately 4.5 J cm-2 and extending as far as 9R12 at a fluence of approximately 16 J cm-2.
Identification of Compounds by High-Content Screening That Induce Cytoplasmic to Nuclear Localization of a Fluorescent Estrogen Receptor α Chimera and Exhibit Agonist or Antagonist Activity In Vitro (2013)

We have completed a robust high-content imaging screen for novel estrogen receptor α (ERα) agonists and antagonists by quantitation of cytoplasmic to nuclear translocation of an estrogen receptor chimera in 384-well plates. The screen was very robust, with Z' values >0.7 and coefficients of variation (CV) <5%. The screen utilized a stably transfected green fluorescent protein-tagged glucocorticoid/estrogen receptor (GFP-GRER) chimera, which consisted of the N-terminus of the glucocorticoid receptor fused to the human ERα ligand binding domain. The GFP-GRER exhibited cytoplasmic localization in the absence of ERα ligands and translocated to the nucleus in response to stimulation with ERα agonists and antagonists. The BD Pathway 435 imaging system was used for image acquisition, analysis of translocation dynamics, and cytotoxicity measurements. We screened 224,891 samples from our synthetic, pure natural product libraries, prefractionated natural product extracts library, and crude natural product extracts library, which produced a 0.003% hit rate. In addition to identifying several known ER ligands, five compounds were discovered that elicited significant activity in the screen. Transactivation potential studies demonstrated that two hit compounds behave as agonists, while three compounds elicited antagonist activity in MCF-7 cells.
Reduction of Transplant Arteriosclerosis After Treatment With Mycophenolate Mofetil and Ganciclovir in a Mouse Aortic Allograft Model (2012)

The combination of mycophenolate mofetil and ganciclovir significantly reduced the development of transplant arteriosclerosis in a mouse abdominal aortic allograft model. This effect may be a result of decreased alloantibody production.
The Yeast TFB1 and SSL1 Genes, Which Encode Subunits of Transcription Factor IIH, Are Required for Nucleotide Excision Repair and RNA Polymerase II Transcription (1995)

The essential TFB1 and SSL1 genes of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae encode two subunits of the RNA polymerase II transcription factor TFIIH (factor b). Here we show that extracts of temperature-sensitive mutants carrying mutations in both genes (tfb1-101 and ssl1-1) are defective in nucleotide excision repair (NER) and RNA polymerase II transcription but are proficient for base excision repair. RNA polymerase II-dependent transcription at the CYC1 promoter was normal at permissive temperatures but defective in extracts preincubated at a restrictive temperature. In contrast, defective NER was observed at temperatures that are permissive for growth. Additionally, both mutants manifested increased sensitivity to UV radiation at permissive temperatures. The extent of this sensitivity was not increased in a tfb1-101 strain and was only slightly increased in a ssl1-1 strain at temperatures that are semipermissive for growth. Purified factor TFIIH complemented defective NER in both tfb1-101 and ssl1-1 mutant extracts. These results define TFB1 and SSL1 as bona fide NER genes and indicate that, as is the case with the yeast Rad3 and Ss12 (Rad25) proteins, Tfb1 and Ssl1 are required for both RNA polymerase II basal transcription and NER. Our results also suggest that the repair and transcription functions of Tfb1 and Ssl1 are separable.
Scaling of membrane-type locally resonant acoustic metamaterial arrays (2012)

Metamaterials have emerged as promising solutions for manipulation of sound waves in a variety of applications. Locally resonant acoustic materials (LRAM) decrease sound transmission by 500% over acoustic mass law predictions at peak transmission loss (TL) frequencies with minimal added mass, making them appealing for weight-critical applications such as aerospace structures. In this study, potential issues associated with scale-up of the structure are addressed. TL of single-celled and multi-celled LRAM was measured using an impedance tube setup with systematic variation in geometric parameters to understand the effects of each parameter on acoustic response. Finite element analysis was performed to predict TL as a function of frequency for structures with varying complexity, including stacked structures and multi-celled arrays. Dynamic response of the array structures under discrete frequency excitation was investigated using laser vibrometry to verify negative dynamic mass behavior.

First Route to Phosphoramidites of N 2-Hydrazinoaryl- and N 2-Azoaryl-dG Adducts and Their Site-Selective Incorporation into DNA Oligonucleotides (2008)

N 2-Hydrazinoaryl and N 2-azoaryl-dG adducts of borderline carcinogens and the bladder and breast carcinogen 4-aminobiphenyl were prepared using Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling chemistry. After conversion into the phosphoramidites site-specifically damaged oligonucleotides were prepared by automated DNA synthesis. DNA Hybrids were studied with respect to their thermal stability (UV melting-temperature analysis) and circular dichroism.
Critical Phase Polymerizations (2001)

Abstract Carbon dioxide is a versatile, environmentally benign solvent for the synthesis of many polymeric materials. This review focuses on recent advances in the utilization of liquid and supercritical CO 2 as a reaction medium for polymer synthesis. Polymerization techniques with both chain‐growth and step‐growth mechanisms are discussed, including free‐radical, metal‐catalyzed, ionic, and bulk polycondensation processes.
Reaching grid parity using BP Solar crystalline silicon technology (2008)

This paper reports on BP Solar's DOE sponsored Solar America Initiative, Technology Pathways Partnership. The paper presents the goals, the technical approach and progress from the first nine months of the program. The overall goals of the program are to reach grid parity for residential and commercial markets and to increase production volumes. This program is addressing all aspects of the PV product chain from raw materials including silicon through installation of the systems at the customer site. To achieve parity with the grid and growth to gigawatt levels of production requires involvement of this entire product chain. To this end the program involves 16 subcontractors including materials vendors, production equipment manufacturers, balance of system component vendors and research laboratories — both university and industrial. During the first nine months of the program progress has been made in casting, wire sawing, processing of thinner cells, development of additional sources of AR coated glass and cost reduction in the encapsulation package.
Orchestrating safe streaming computations with precise control (2014)

Streaming computing is a paradigm of distributed computing that features networked nodes connected by first-in-first-out data channels. Communication between nodes may include not only high-volume data tokens but also infrequent and unpredictable control messages carrying control information, such as data set boundaries, exceptions, or reconfiguration requests. In many applications, it is necessary to order delivery of control messages precisely relative to data tokens, which can be especially challenging when nodes can filter data tokens. Existing approaches, mainly data serialization protocols, do not exploit the low-volume nature of control messages and may not guarantee that synchronization of these messages with data will be free of deadlock. In this paper, we propose an efficient messaging system for adding precisely ordered control messages to streaming applications. We use a credit-based protocol to avoid the need to tag data tokens and control messages. For potential deadlocks caused by filtering behavior and global synchronization, we propose deadlock avoidance solutions and prove their correctness.

Simulación del efecto de flujo fuente usando un método libre de malla (2013)

The fountain flow effect affects the macromolecular orientation and therefore, the mechanical and optical properties of injection and compression molded parts [1]. The impact of the fountain flow effect is even higher in fiber reinforced materials, because the distribution and orientation of fibers is affected. The fountain flow effect is modeled using a meshless technique, the radial function method (RFM). Two cases are considered: a slit flow of a power law fluid and a vertical tube flow of a Newtonian fluid considering gravitational effects. A good agreement between the numerical prediction and results reported in literature was found.

Ultra-low noise laser systems for quantum sensing, computing, and precision metrology (2023)

Quantum technologies, spanning from sensing and metrology to simulations and computing, rely upon precise and low noise laser systems. Currently, we are witnessing a paradigm shift, where laboratory-based experiments are engineered such to develop reliable operating devices. The goal of providing continuous operation is key to enable their deployment for, e.g., PNT applications or cloud-based quantum computing services. Ultra-low noise laser systems are becoming integral part of these quantum devices due to their pivotal role in the effective functioning of the physics package. In fact, the performance are fundamentally linked to the noise properties of the driving laser fields, imposing the need of a careful choice of the appropriate sources, their spectral properties, and their stabilization. Here we present some of our recent ultra-stable laser system engineered for enabling several applications, we will describe ultra-stable comb and laser systems for quantum computing using neutral Yb, Sr, Rb, or Cs atoms, electric field sensing with Rydberg Rb atoms, and portable compact comb systems to enable uninterrupted operation of optical clocks in the field. A detailed noise analysis of the systems will be presented.

Gold‐Katalyse (2006)

Abstract Die Katalyse durch Gold ist schnell ein “heißes Thema” der Chemie geworden – fast wöchentlich werden neue Entdeckungen gemacht. Gold ist gleichermaßen als heterogener wie auch als homogener Katalysator aktiv, und im folgenden Aufsatz wollen wir diese beiden Facetten gemeinsam präsentieren, um so die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten der Gold‐Katalyse darzulegen. Die neuesten Entdeckungen werden im historischen Kontext diskutiert, Hauptziel ist aber, die neuen Optionen aufzuzeigen, die Gold‐Katalysatoren dem Synthesechemiker bieten – besonders auf den Gebieten der Redoxreaktionen und nucleophilen Additionen an π‐Systeme. Oft erweist sich Gold sogar als guter Katalysator für zuvor unbekannte Reaktionen, und in diesem Bereich gibt es mit Sicherheit noch viel zu entdecken.
Application of electron backscatter diffraction to bulk high-Tc superconductors (2002)

We have successfully obtained electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) Kikuchi patterns on various bulk high-Tc superconductors (polycrystalline KClO3-doped and undoped YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO), single crystalline YBCO and NdBa2Cu3O7−y) and on YBCO and NdBCO thin films. We have established a sample polishing procedure to obtain intense Kikuchi patterns without an additional carbon coating of the ceramic superconductors. We present Kikuchi patterns, pole figures and orientation maps of the samples. On the polycrystalline KClO3-doped YBCO samples we find two major orientations (001) and (100) normal to the sample surface, while the undoped sample does not exhibit any orientation maxima, which is ascribed to the effect of a liquid phase due to the KClO3-additive during the preparation process. Furthermore, we discuss the future possibilities for the application of the EBSD technique for growing larger, bulk melt-textured samples for applications.
Efficient blockade of locally reciprocated tumor-macrophage signaling using a TAM-avid nanotherapy (2020)

Interpreting how multicellular interactions in the tumor affect resistance pathways to BRAF and MEK1/2 MAPK inhibitors (MAPKi) remains a challenge. To investigate this, we profiled global ligand-receptor interactions among tumor and stromal/immune cells from biopsies of MAPK-driven disease. MAPKi increased tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in some patients, which correlated with poor clinical response, and MAPKi coamplified bidirectional tumor-TAM signaling via receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) including AXL, MERTK, and their ligand GAS6. In xenograft tumors, intravital microscopy simultaneously monitored in situ single-cell activities of multiple kinases downstream of RTKs, revealing MAPKi increased TAMs and enhanced bypass signaling in TAM-proximal tumor cells. As a proof-of-principle strategy to block this signaling, we developed a multi-RTK kinase inhibitor nanoformulation that accumulated in TAMs and delayed disease progression. Thus, bypass signaling can reciprocally amplify across nearby cell types, offering new opportunities for therapeutic design.

Effects of soybean pectin on blood glucose and insulin responses in healthy men (2015)

Pectin is a soluble fiber with demonstrated health benefits such as the ability to lower blood glucose and cholesterol, increased satiety leading to lower caloric intake and improved insulin resistance. These benefits suggest that pectin may help in prevention and treatment of diseases such as diabetes and obesity. Soybean seed coats, a co‐product of soybean processing, are good source of fiber (pectin) and shows potential as a value‐added product. The objective of this study is to examine the effects of soy pectin on blood glucose and insulin responses. Using a randomized‐crossover design, fifteen healthy men were randomly assigned to two groups (control and soy pectin). Fasting finger‐stick blood samples were collected at 15 minutes before and 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120, and 180 minutes after consumption of control solution with added soy pectin or a control solution. Although no specific time interval was significantly different, a reduction in plasma glucose and insulin concentrations was observed. Compared with the control, mean glucose iAUC (incremental area under the curve) for the soy pectin treatment was lowered by ~13.2% from 5059 + 506 to 4390 + 387 µU (~3 h) L ‐1 . Results suggest soy pectin has a potential for use as a functional food ingredient to improve human health. Funding provided by Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board is greatly appreciated.
Vibrations of Plates With Clamped and Free Edges Excited by Highly Subsonic Turbulent Boundary Layer Flow (2002)

Plate vibrations due to turbulent boundary layer (TBL) excitation can depend strongly on the plate boundary conditions, especially when the flow convects over the plate at speeds much slower than those of the bending waves in the plate. The vibration response of a TBL excited flat rectangular plate is analyzed with two sets of boundary conditions: (A) all four edges clamped, and (B) three edges clamped and one edge free, with the flow direction perpendicular to the free edge. A finite element model with discretization sufficient to resolve the convective wavenumbers in the flow excitation field is used for the study. Three TBL wall pressure excitation models are applied to the plates to represent the cross-spectra of the wall pressures: (1) a modified Corcos model, which includes all wavenumber components of excitation; (2) a low-wavenumber excitation model previously derived by one of the authors, which only models the wavenumber-white region of the modified Corcos model; and (3) an equivalent edge force model which only models the convective component in the modified Corcos model. The TBL wall pressure autospectrum is approximated using the model derived by Smolyakov and Tkachenko. The results obtained from applying models (2) and (3) to the clamped and free edge plates are compared to those generated using model (1). For the completely clamped boundary conditions, the low-wavenumber and Modified Corcos models yield nearly identical vibration spectra, indicating that surface interactions dominate the response of fully clamped plates excited by TBL pressures. For the free edge boundary condition, the vibrations predicted using the equivalent edge force and modified Corcos models match very well, showing that edge interactions between TBL pressures and structural modes dominate the vibrations of plates with free edges excited by TBL flow.
PCR Amplification and Sequence Analysis of GC-Rich Sequences: Aristaless-Related Homeobox Example (2013)

PCR amplification (followed by mutation scanning or direct sequencing) is a technique widely used in mutation detection and molecular studies of disease-causing genes, such as ARX. PCR amplification of high GC-rich regions encounters difficulties using conventional PCR procedures. Here, we present the strategies to amplify and sequence these GC-rich regions for the purposes of mutation screening and other molecular analyses.
Discovery of Orally Bioavailable 1,3,4-Trisubstituted 2-Oxopiperazine-Based Melanocortin-4 Receptor Agonists as Potential Antiobesity Agents (2008)

A study that was designed to identify plausible replacements for highly basic guanidine moiety contained in potent MC4R agonists, as exemplified by 1, led to the discovery of initial nonguanidine lead 5. Propyl analog 23 was subsequently found to be equipotent to 5, whereas analogs bearing smaller and branched alkyl groups at the 3 position of the oxopiperazine template demonstrated reduced binding affinity and agonist potency for MC4R. Acylation of the NH2 group of the 4F-D-Phe residue of 3-propyl analog 23 significantly increased the binding affinity and the functional activity for MC4R. Analogs with neutral and weakly basic capping groups of the D-Phe residue exhibited excellent MC4R selectivity against MC1R whereas those with an amino acid had moderate MC4R/MC1R selectivity. We have also demonstrated that compound 35 showed promising oral bioavailability and a moderate oral half life and induced significant weight loss in a 28-day rat obesity model.
High-impedance reflectivity and surface-wave band gaps in metamaterials (2004)

We studied the surface wave and reflective properties of two types of metamaterials, one that combines a material with dispersive μ with a metal film, and another that possesses arbitrary ε and μ. Generic surface wave phase diagrams with respect to ε and μ are given. For the first type, we find that the simultaneous appearance of high-impedance reflectivity and a surface-wave gap requires additional mechanisms such as Bragg scattering, while metamaterials of the second type can possess high surface impedance and a surface-wave gap simultaneously.
