Application considerations for class-1 div-2 inverter-fed motors (2006)

Application considerations for fixed-speed motors utilized in hazardous locations are not new to the electrical community and have been discussed previously and are relatively well known in the petroleum industry. Documented guidelines for these applications are currently established, are primarily centered on motor-temperature-rise limitations and the use of nonsparking fans in class-1 division-2/zone-2 locations. However, there are additional considerations when motors and their associated loads are on inverter supply. Items such as the effect on motor temperature rise when operating at reduced speeds for units without independently powered blowers, the effect of nonsinusoidal supply at the motor terminals on motor temperature rise as well as rotor voltage related phenomenon are relevant items. This paper identifies and provides guidelines particular to inverter-fed applications for class-1 division-2 installations.
Stability of Proteins Confined in MCM-48 Mesoporous Molecular Sieves – The Effects of pH, Temperature and Co-solvents (2006)

Our approach was to encapsulate the model protein ribonuclease A (RNase A) in mesoporous silica MCM-48 (Mobil Composition of Matter No. 48) with glasslike wall structure and well-defined pores to create a confined hydrophilic microenvironment. The differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) method was employed to evaluate the stability of the confined protein as a function of pH and at various co-solvent conditions. Due to a significant stabilization effect, the immobilized protein exhibits a large shift (about 28 ºC at pH 5.5) in the unfolding temperature in confined space of about 25 Å. The stabilization against temperature-induced unfolding is further enhanced with the protein immobilized at higher pH, and the maximum loading of protein has been observed near its isoelectric point. It was also found that the addition of kosmotropic (glycerol) and chaotropic (urea) co-solvents has different impacts on protein immobilization and unfolding scenario.

Real-time and low latency embedded computer vision hardware based on a combination of FPGA and mobile CPU (2014)

Recent developments in smartphones create an ideal platform for robotics and computer vision applications: they are small, powerful, embedded devices with low-power mobile CPUs. However, though the computational power of smartphones has increased substantially in recent years, they are still not capable of performing intense computer vision tasks in real time, at high frame rates and low latency. We present a combination of FPGA and mobile CPU to overcome the computational and latency limitations of mobile CPUs alone. With the FPGA as an additional layer between the image sensor and CPU, the system is capable of accelerating computer vision algorithms to real-time performance. Low latency calculation allows for direct usage within control loops of mobile robots. A stereo camera setup with disparity estimation based on the semi global matching algorithm is implemented as an accelerated example application. The system calculates dense disparity images with 752×480 pixels resolution at 60 frames per second. The overall latency of the disparity estimation is less than 2 milliseconds. The system is suitable for any mobile robot application due to its light weight and low power consumption.

Search for long-lived, massive particles in events with a displaced vertex and a muon with large impact parameter in pp collisions at s=13  TeV with the ATLAS detector (2020)

A search for long-lived particles decaying into hadrons and at least one muon is presented. The analysis selects events that pass a muon or missing-transverse-momentum trigger and contain a displaced muon track and a displaced vertex. The analyzed dataset of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{TeV}$ was collected with the ATLAS detector and corresponds to $136\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{fb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$. The search employs dedicated reconstruction techniques that significantly increase the sensitivity to long-lived particle decays that occur in the ATLAS inner detector. Background estimates for Standard Model processes and instrumental effects are extracted from data. The observed event yields are compatible with those expected from background processes. The results are presented as limits at 95% confidence level on model-independent cross sections for processes beyond the Standard Model, and interpreted as exclusion limits in scenarios with pair production of long-lived top squarks that decay via a small $R$-parity-violating coupling into a quark and a muon. Top squarks with masses up to 1.7 TeV are excluded for a lifetime of 0.1 ns, and masses below 1.3 TeV are excluded for lifetimes between 0.01 ns and 30 ns.

Brucella abortus Strain RB51 Leucine Auxotroph as an Environmentally Safe Vaccine for Plasmid Maintenance and Antigen Overexpression (2008)

To avoid potentiating the spread of an antibiotic resistance marker, a plasmid expressing a leuB gene and a heterologous antigen, green fluorescent protein (GFP), was shown to complement a leucine auxotroph of cattle vaccine strain Brucella abortus RB51, which protected CD1 mice from virulent B. abortus 2308 and elicited GFP antibodies.
Multi-Signal, Multi-Modal Data Acquisition and Processing Based on Compressive Sensing (2008)

Abstract : In this final report, we report on our progress on ARO grant W911NF-07-1-0502. The goal of the project was to develop compressive sensing and dimensionality reduction for manifold data. We investigated and developed efficient sampling and measurement schemes for manifold-modeled data to enable efficient new A/AiTR and fusion algorithms. Key elements included random projections, dimensionality reduction techniques, and the new theory of compressive sensing. We developed new methods for signal and image registration, reconstruction, fusion, classification, and detection from incomplete information based on new compressive matched filters, MACH filters, and pattern recognition techniques. The research highlights detailed below are (i) a new smashed filter for dimensionally reduced classification and A/AiTR; (ii) new algorithms for machine and manifold learning based on random projections; (iii) joint manifold models and processing algorithms for multi-sensor and multi-modal data fusion.

Immunohistochemical characterization of two new monoclonal antibodies (LN-4, LN-5) reactive with human macrophage subsets and derived malignancies in B5-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues (1988)

Two monoclonal antibodies (LN-4, LN-5) reactive to human macrophages in B5 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections have been produced by using deparaffinized cell extracts of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Both monoclonal antibodies were initially identified on paraffin-embedded sections of hyperplastic lymph nodes by using the immunoperoxidase staining procedure. Specificity screens on normal human tissues show that LN-4 and LN-5 stain the cytoplasm of macrophages and histiocytes in hematopoietic organs including Kupffer's cells of the liver and Langerhans' cells of the skin. LN-4 also showed strong positivity with acini of the stomach, whereas LN-5 was positive with mantle zone B lymphocytes of the lymph node and spleen, spermatogonia, and chief cells of the stomach. Both antibodies were strongly reactive with cases of true histiocytic lymphoma but, except for infiltrating macrophages, were entirely negative in Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. In all cases of nodular sclerosis Hodgkin's disease, LN-4 was positive in macrophagelike cells present in the collagen bands surrounding the Hodgkin's lesions. Both monoclonal antibodies were also positive in macrophages and histiocytes present in a variety of benign lymphoid lesions including persistent generalized lymphadenopathy, Gaucher's disease, sinus histiocytosis, and dermatopathic lymphadenopathy. Because of their specificity for human macrophages, and their ability to stain B5-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, LN-4 and LN-5 are important new reagents for the diagnosis and classification of malignant and benign histiocytic lesions.
Accurate modelling of anti-resonant dipole antennasusing the method of moments (1999)

The authors demonstrate that the difficulties encountered when modelling anti-resonant antennas are primarily due to the conventional variable gap source model which is commonly employed in thin-wire moment method codes. An alternative source model is introduced, for use in analysing this class of antennas, where the essential feature is that the gap width of the feed region remains fixed. The fixed gap model is compared to the variable gap model for both a half-wave dipole, where the variable gap is still a valid source model, and for a full-wave anti-resonant dipole, where the fixed gap source is shown to be superior to the variable gap model.
Physics-Informed Digital Twins of Defects for Fatigue Life Estimation (2021)

Machine Learning (ML) and Digital Twins (DT) are at the heart of today’s different industries, ranging from advanced manufacturing to biomedical systems to resilient ecosystems, civil infrastructures, smart cities, and healthcare. They have become indispensable for solving complex problems in science, engineering, and technology development. The purpose of the MMLDT-CSET 2021 conference is to facilitate the transition of ML and DT from fundamental research to mainstream fields and technologies through advanced data science, mechanistic methods, and computational technologies. This 3-day conference features technical tracks of emerging ML-DT fields and applications, special public lectures, short courses, and demonstrations. The conference will be held in a hybrid format, featuring both on-site and virtual sessions.
Differential effects of T4 and T3 on TRHand GRF-induced GH secretion in the domestic fowl (1991)

The in vivo growth hormone (GH) response of immature domestic fowl to thyrotrophin-releasing hormone (TRH) and GH-releasing factor (GRF) was suppressed in birds fed diets supplemented (1 ppm) with triiodothyronine (T3) or given bolus intraperitoneal (ip) injections (100 micrograms/kg for 10 d) of T3. Supplementation (ppm) of the diet with T4 had no effect on secretagogue- induced GH release. Exogenous T3 or T4 suppressed basal, TRH- and GRF-induced GH release 2 h after daily ip administration (100 micrograms/kg for 10 d). 24 h after the last injection, only T3 was effective in inhibiting basal and stimulated GH secretion in vivo. The systemic administration of T3 was followed 2 h and 24 h later by a downregulation of pituitary TRH binding sites. T4 administration had no effect on pituitary TRH binding. When chicken pituitary glands were incubated in vitro, basal GH release was unaffected by the addition of 10(-9)-10(-5) M T3 or T4 to the incubation media. The in vitro GH response to TRH (10(-6) M) or GRF (10(-6) M) challenge was, however, suppressed in a dose-related manner by T3 but was unaffected by the coincubation of T4. These results demonstrate inhibitory effects of T3 and T4 on basal and secretagogue-induced GH secretion in fowl. T4 is less active than T3 and probably exerts some of its effects via T3-independent mechanisms.
Speckle with a finite number of steps (2007)

The statistical properties of classical, fully developed speckle must be modified when the speckle is generated by a random walk with a finite number of steps. It is shown that for such speckle, the standard negative-exponential probability density function for speckle intensity often overestimates the probability that the intensity exceeds a given threshold. In addition, while any linear transformation of the fields in a classical speckle pattern does not change the intensity statistics, the same is not true for finite-step speckle. The implications of these facts in certain applications are discussed.
Service analytics for IT service management (2016)

Outsourcing enterprise IT service management is an increasingly challenging business. On one hand, service providers must deliver with respect to customer expectations of service quality and innovation. On the other hand, they must continuously seek competitive reductions in the costs of service delivery and management. These targets can be achieved with integration of innovative service management tools, automation, and advanced analytics. In this paper, we focus on service analytics, the subset of analytics problems and solutions concerning specific service delivery and management performance and cost optimization. The paper reviews various service analytics methods and technologies that have been developed and applied to enhance IT service management. We use our industrial experience to highlight the challenges faced in the development and adoption of service analytics, and we discuss open problems.
Estimating Urban Traffic Congestions with Multi-sourced Data (2016)

This paper studies the novel problem of more accurately estimating urban traffic congestions by integrating sparse probe data and traffic related information collected from social media. Limited by the lack of reliability and low sampling frequency of GPS probes, probe data are usually not sufficient for fully estimating traffic conditions of a large arterial network. To address the data sparsity challenge, we extensively collect and model traffic related data from multiple data sources. Besides the GPS probe data, we also extensively collect traffic related tweets that report various traffic events such as congestion, accident, and road construction from both traffic authority accounts and general user accounts from Twitter. To further explore other factors that might affect traffic conditions, we also extract auxiliary information including road congestion correlations, social events, road features, as well as point of interest (POI) for help. To integrate the different types of data coming from different sources, we finally propose a coupled matrix and tensor factorization model to more accurately complete the very sparse traffic congestion matrix by collaboratively factorizing it with other matrices and tensors formed by other data. We evaluate the proposed model on the arterial network of downtown Chicago with 1257 road segments. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model by comparison with previous approaches.
Tunable white light generating nanocyrstal-hybridized LEDs (2007)

We hybridize CdSe/ZnS core-shell nanocrystals on InGaN/GaN near-UV/blue LEDs to generate light widely tunable across the visible spectral range and within the white region of the chromaticity diagram with adjustable tristimulus coordinates. We present the design, growth, fabrication, and characterization of these nanocrystal- hybridized LEDs.
Modulating ocular dominance in the adult in real time. (2015)

Using a dichoptic spatial phase combination paradigm that assesses the relative contribution that each eye makes to the binocular percept (ocular dominance), we have shown previously that 2.5 hours of patching, be it opaque or translucent, can result in a short-term enhancement of the patched eye’s contribution to binocularity. This suggests that it is differential pattern deprivation, rather than the differential luminance deprivation that is driving this ocular dominance change. Here we ask what aspects of the pattern stimulation are important for ocular dominance. Observers dichoptically viewed movies of 2-3 hrs duration in which the spatial information in one eye’s view had been altered (pattern deprivation). We measured each eye’s contribution to the binocular percept before and after movie viewing using the dichoptic spatial phase task. Scrambling the spatial phases in one eye’s view had no effect on ocular dominance, suggesting features constructed from phase-aligned components are unimportant in this regard. At the level at which these changes in dominance occurs only the Fourier amplitude spectrum is important. To verify this we show that graded changes to the magnitude of the amplitude spectrum result in graded changes in ocular dominance. To ascertain whether different parts of the amplitude spectrum are more important than others, we compared highpass with lowpass filtering and show that only the latter affects dominance. Finally, the ocular dominance change is not orientationally-dependent, suggesting the underlying mechanism is isotropic. Short-term changes in ocular dominance in adults can be obtained by altering the contrast of isotropic, high spatial frequency components seen by one eye. Meeting abstract presented at VSS 2015
Special Session 9A: Hot Topic: Yield Management and DPPM Reduction (2008)

With shrinking technology, it is getting harder to manufacture and test memories which today occupy more than 50%-60% of chip area and dominate the defects and customer returns in today’s integrated circuits. Previously unheard of fault/defect types are causing designs to fail reducing yield and increasing Defective Parts per Million (DPPM). It is important for the design & test community to understand the need to screen and analyze the defects and find out techniques to mitigate them. In this session, we explore various ways of reducing the impact on yield and DPPM. The various panel members each provide a summary statement of their views.
10.4: Phased Reset Timing for Improved Digital Micromirror Device™ (DMD™) Brightness (1998)

Abstract A new DMD™ architecture and operation is described in which the DMD cells are horizontally partitioned into re se t groups, each of which is loaded and reset with time phasing. Phased reset operation of reset groups affords a significant improvement in brightness and picture quality by allowing a more efficient pulse width modulation pattern.
Change of Microstructures of Directionally Solidified Ni Base Superalloy GTD-111 at High Temperature (2006)

In the case of transient liquid phase diffusion bonding with Ni base superalloy GTD-111, the bonding temperature was sustained at 1403K ~ 1453K. Thus, the microstructure of specimens heated at 1403K ~ 1453K was examined. In the raw material, γ-γ' eutectic phases, platelet η phases, MC carbide and PFZ were clearly observed in interdendritic regions or near the grain boundary and the size of primary γ' precipitates near the interdendritic regions were larger than the core. The primary γ' precipitated in the dendrite core dissolved early in the bonding process. γ' precipitated near the interdendritic regions were partially solubilized and their shape was changed. The dissolution rate increased with increasing temperature. Phases in the interdendritic regions or near the grain boundary changed continuously with time at the bonding temperature. At a bonding temperature of 1403K, the eutectic phases remained, but η phases were transformed from a platelet shape to a needle morphology and the PFZ region widened with time. The interdendritic region and near the grain boundary became partially liquid at 1423K and fully at 1453K by the reaction of η phases and PFZ. The interdendritic region and near grain the boundary became liquid and new phases which were mixed with η phases, PFZ and MC carbide crystallized during cooling at 1453K. Crystalline η phases were transformed from a rod shape to a platelet shape with increasing holding time.
Joint-compensation of silicon photonics modulator in short reach coherent networks (2020)

In the context of short-reach data-center interconnect, such as OIF 400ZR, we study the system impact of bandwidth loss of Silicon Photonics Mach-Zehnder modulators in high-speed coherent modems. As well, we propose a minimum-mean square gradient-descent based method to optimize the compensation of such loss at both transmitter and receiver signal processing finite-impulse response filters. The method improves required-optical signal to noise ratio (ROSNR), under realistic hardware restrictions such as implementation noise and clock jitters at data converters, by 0.5 dB compared to fully pre-compensating the frequency response. Other advantages, such as lower power consumption, are highlighted as well.
Properties and Application of UV-Curable Liquid Crystals. (1997)

Some classes of UV-curable liquid crystals which are monoacrylates having no methylene spacers in a side chain have been prepared. The UV-curable liquid crystals have effects to reduce the driving voltage and the hysteresis for a light scattering display of Polymer Network liquid crystals prepared by photo-polymerization-induced phase separation. The alignment of nematic liquid crystals on the cured polymer of monomers including the UV-curable liquid crystals varies with the concentration in monomers. The cured polymer of the UV-curable liquid crystals in liquid crystalline host has polymer stabilization effect and has less influence on the motion of liquid crystalline host.
Local Density Approximation Total Energy Calculations for Silica and Titania Structure and Defects (1990)

Theoretical structural predictions are presented for three polymorphs of silica (α‐quartz, α‐cristobalite, and stishovite) and the rutile structure of titania. Several defects within the silica system (the oxygen vacancy, a puckering distortion in quartz with no oxygen vacancy, and titanium in silica) are also studied. These ab initio studies are conducted using the local density approximation for electronic structure and total energies and are implemented using some very recent advances in improved pseudopotentials and energy minimization algorithms. Results include two metastable conformations of the oxygen vacancy in silica, similar Si—O and Ti—O bond energies, and equilibrium structures of several defects.
