APPLICATION OF SHIP-HANDLING SIMULATIONS IN THE EVALUATION OF CHANNELS FOR TWO-WAY TRAFFIC (1990)

The application of ship maneuvering simulations in the evaluation of restricted channels that are required to accommodate two-way traffic is described in this paper. The application is illustrated by results from actual studies of the Baltimore channels carried out to validate channel reductions from 800 to 700 ft and from 1,000 to 800 ft, respectively, and an increase of the water depth from 45 to 50 ft to allow ships with deeper draft and larger tonnage to call at Baltimore. Initial studies were conducted using two coupled ship-handling simulators, each conned by a separate pilot and crew in communication and visual contact with the other ship. This initial study covered meeting situations for two-way traffic in the Craighill Angle channels. The data from these simulations provided the meeting situation strategies used by the pilots. Based on these strategies, a traffic ship control system was developed for use in later phases of the program. In all meeting situations, both ships are described with full hydrodynamic models. The later phases of the program involved simulation studies of the Brewerton channels, Rappahannock Channel, and York Spit channels. These studies consisted of fast-time simulations in which both own ship and traffic ship were computer controlled, and real-time simulations in which the own ship was controlled by a pilot and the traffic ship was computer controlled. A rule-based traffic ship control system was developed to control both ships in fast-time simulations and the traffic ship in real-time simulations.
Acute Effects of Intraoperative Multisite Ventricular Pacing on Left Ventricular Function and Activation/Contraction Sequence in Patients with Depressed Ventricular Function (1998)

Simultaneous right and left ventricular apical pacing results in acute improvements in global ventricular performance in patients with depressed ventricular function. Improvements may result from pacing-induced global coordination through recruitment of left and right ventricular apical and septal segments critical to effective ventricular contraction.
Electron impact ion fragmentation pathways of peracetylated C ‐glycoside ketones derived from cyclic 1,3‐diketones (2009)

Monosaccharide C-glycoside ketones have been synthesized by aqueous-based Knoevenagel condensation of isotopically labeled and unlabeled aldoses with cyclic diketones, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (dimedone) and 1,3-cyclohexanedione (1,3-CHD). The reaction products and their corresponding acetylated analogs produce characteristic molecular adduct ions by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Analysis of the peracetylated C-glycosides by electron ionization (EI) gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) revealed diagnostic fragment ions that have been used to deduce the EI fragmentation pathways and the structure of each C-glycoside ketone. Characteristic gluco- and ribo-specific ions were observed at m/z 350 and 278, respectively. Ions common to both carbohydrate fragmentation pathways were observed at m/z 193 and 169 for the dimedone-C-glycosides, and m/z 165 and 141 for the 1,3-CHD-C-glycosides. Ions with m/z 169 and 141 retain the anomeric carbon (carbon-1) of the original sugar, while m/z 193 and 165 are shown to retain carbons-1, 2, and 3.

Delay-time dependent adatom desorption from the Si(111)-7/spl times/7 surface using femtosecond optical pulse pair excitation (2003)

Using femtosecond pulse-pair excitation at 800-nm, delay-time dependent adatom desorption from the Si(111)-7/spl times/7 surface was observed by scanning tunneling microscopy. Trends in the desorption yield and site selectivity were detected as a function of delay time.
Miniature Electrostatic Ion Thruster With Magnet (2006)

A miniature electrostatic ion thruster is proposed that, with one exception, would be based on the same principles as those of the device described in the previous article, Miniature Bipolar Electrostatic Ion Thruster. The exceptional feature of this thruster would be that, in addition to using electric fields for linear acceleration of ions and electrons, it would use a magnetic field to rotationally accelerate slow electrons into the ion stream to neutralize the ions.

Applicability of MPLS Transport Profile for Ring Topologies (2013)

This document presents an applicability of existing MPLS protection
mechanisms, both local and end-to-end, to the MPLS Transport Profile
(MPLS-TP) in ring topologies. This document does not propose any new
mechanisms or protocols. Requirements for MPLS-TP protection
especially for protection in ring topologies are discussed in
Requirements of an MPLS Transport (RFC 5654) and MPLS
Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Survivability Framework (RFC 6372). This
document discusses how most of the requirements are met by applying
linear protection as defined in RFC 6378 in a ring topology.
Separated Carbon Nanotube Macroelectronics for Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode Displays (2011)

Active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display holds great potential for the next generation visual technologies due to its high light efficiency, flexibility, lightweight, and low-temperature processing. However, suitable thin-film transistors (TFTs) are required to realize the advantages of AMOLED. Preseparated, semiconducting enriched carbon nanotubes are excellent candidates for this purpose because of their excellent mobility, high percentage of semiconducting nanotubes, and room-temperature processing compatibility. Here we report, for the first time, the demonstration of AMOLED displays driven by separated nanotube thin-film transistors (SN-TFTs) including key technology components, such as large-scale high-yield fabrication of devices with superior performance, carbon nanotube film density optimization, bilayer gate dielectric for improved substrate adhesion to the deposited nanotube film, and the demonstration of monolithically integrated AMOLED display elements with 500 pixels driven by 1000 SN-TFTs. Our approach can serve as the critical foundation for future nanotube-based thin-film display electronics.
Cation-Controlled Crystal Growth of Silver Stearate: Cryo-TEM Investigation of Lithium vs Sodium Stearate (2009)

Cryo-TEM, SAXS, and light microscopy techniques were used to probe the morphology and kinetics of silver stearate self-assembly and crystallization from the reaction of silver nitrate with lithium stearate. Unlike the reaction of sodium stearate with silver nitrate, which proceeds via micelle aggregation, the lithium stearate forms vesicles that drastically change the reaction kinetics of the silver stearate nucleation and self-assembly process. In addition, even with excess silver nitrate present, only about 80% of the lithium stearate can be converted to silver stearate. The presence of the residual lithium stearate inhibits the silver stearate crystal growth process. Consequently, no silver stearate micelle aggregates of any significant size form, unlike the system utilizing sodium stearate. Instead, significantly smaller silver stearate crystals result from lithium stearate compared to the silver stearate crystals from sodium stearate and provide an opportunity to further control silver stearate self-assembly and crystal growth.

Just noticeable distortion map prediction for perceptual multiview video coding (2012)

The just noticeable distortion (JND) map is a useful tool for perceptual video coding. However, direct calculation of the JND map incurs high complexity, and the problem is aggravated in multiview video coding. In this paper, the motion and disparity vectors obtained during the video coding are employed to predict the JND maps in order to reduce the complexity. The error propagation of the prediction is studied and a JND block refreshing approach is proposed, when the prediction is not satisfactory, to alleviate the influence of the error propagation. The performance of the proposed JND prediction method is evaluated in a perceptual MVC framework, where the prediction residuals are tuned according to the JND thresholds to save the bits without affecting the perceptual quality. Experimental results show that the JND prediction method has better accuracy and lower complexity than an existing JND synthesis method. In addition, the proposed method leads to negligible degradation of the coding performance, compared to the direct JND method.

A bi-flyback PFC converter with low intermediate bus voltage and tight output voltage regulation for universal input applications (2003)

A single-stage bi-flyback power factor correction topology is proposed in this paper. By adding a secondary winding to BIFRED choke inductor, there are two discharging paths for the choke inductor: to load or to intermediate capacitor. In this topology, the intermediate bus voltage is limited to below 400 VDC for universal voltage applications, and DC/DC conversion cell can operate in CCM. A 150 W prototype unit based on this topology has been built and tested in the lab with experimental results that show good performance.
Control Law Design for Distributed Multi-Agent Systems (2011)

In this paper, the problem of control law design for decentralized homogenous Multi-Agent systems ensuring the global stability and global performance properties is considered. Inspired by the decentralized control law design methodology using the dissipativity input-output approach, the problem is reduced to the problem of satisfying two conditions: (i) the condition on the interconnection and (ii) the condition on the local agent dynamics. Both problems are e fficiently solved applying a (quasi-) convex optimization under Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) constraints and an H infinity synthesis. The proposed design methodology is applied to the control law design of a synchronous PLLs network.
Constructing Long-Only Multifactor Strategies: Portfolio Blending vs. Signal Blending (2018)

Long-only multifactor strategies may be constructed by combining individual-factor portfolios (portfolio blending) or by combining individual-factor signals into a composite signal to construct the portfolio (signal blending). To compare these two approaches, we present a framework for building exposure-matched portfolios. In empirical tests on global equity markets, we find that, generally, portfolio blending generates higher information ratios for low-to-moderate levels of tracking error. At high levels of tracking error, signal blending delivers better risk-adjusted performance. These results generally hold for various factor combinations, and they have important practical implications for investors considering the implementation of multifactor smart-beta strategies.

Efficient ignition of fusion using PW-ps laser pulses for ultrahigh acceleration of plasma blocks (2013)

Physics defines the reasons why laser driven ICF by laser pulses of nanosecond duration is basically different from the use of picosecond length. High intensity picoseconds laser pulses transfer energy directly into kinetic energy of plasma blocks without thermal losses, without delays by collisions and with exclusion of most instabilities. Following the long known theory by the nonlinear (ponderomotive) force, it was predicted that the plasma receives an ultra-high predicted acceleration first measured by Sauerbrey and theoretically confirmed in all details. Interaction of the plasma blocks with solid state fusion fuel should generate a Chu-Bobin fusion flame. Usng hydrodynamics with separate electron and ion fluids, detales properties can be studied about shock generation, and the varying velocity of the flame fronts far above 1000 km/s for high gains.

Time-dependent degradation of carbon nanotubes correlates with decreased reactive oxygen species generation in macrophages (2019)

Mei Yang,1 Minfang Zhang,1 Hideaki Nakajima,1 Masako Yudasaka,1,2 Sumio Iijima,2 Toshiya Okazaki11Nanotube Application Research Center, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8565, Japan; 2Faculty of Science &amp; Technology, Meijo University, Tempaku-ku, Nagoya 468-8502, JapanIntroduction and objective: With the increase in carbon nanotube-based products on the commercial market, public concern regarding the possible toxicity of these nanomaterials has attracted much attention. Although previous studies found no obvious toxicity related to carbon nanotubes (CNTs), their safety has not been established because long-term evaluation is still needed. In vitro assays are used to understand the toxicity of nanomaterials. However, the data published so far were generated in short-term assays in which cells are continuously exposed to CNTs. Therefore, the objective of this study is to quantitatively assess the relative long-term cytotoxicity and degradation of CNTs after uptake by macrophages.Methods: We used macrophage cell line of RAW 264.7 and primary rat Kupffer cells to investigate macrophage uptake of CNTs as well as their quantity changes up to a relatively late time point after uptake (7&nbsp;days) by measuring optical absorbance in the near infrared region and Raman spectra of CNTs in the cell lysates. The time-dependent cytotoxicity was evaluated by measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione, cell viability, and caspase 3/7 activity in 1&ndash;7&nbsp;days.Results: CNTs were degraded by approximately 25&ndash;30% within first 4&nbsp;days after uptake; however, and no additional degradation occurred for the remainder of the 7-day test period. Generation of ROS by macrophages decreased as CNT degradation occurred, returning to control levels by Day 7. In the meantime, the glutathione level gradually recovered over time. There were no changes in cell viability or caspase 3/7 activation during CNT degradation.Conclusion: These results confirm that degradation of CNTs by macrophages is associated with ROS generation. The data also suggest that CNT cytotoxicity decreases as they are degraded.Keywords: carbon nanomaterials, biodegradation, cytotoxicity, cellular uptake
Desiccant drying prior to hermetic storage extends viability and reduces bruchid (Callosobruchus chinensis L.) infestation of mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) seeds (2021)

Seeds of mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) are subject to loss of viability due to aging and damage from pulse beetles (or bruchids; Callosobruchus spp.) infestation during storage. We investigated whether seed drying using desiccants and hermetic packaging would prevent or ameliorate these consequences of storage. Sun-dried mung bean seeds at a moisture content of 10% were subjected to further drying for 72 h using five different desiccants: Drying Beads® (a zeolite-based desiccant), silica gel, sodium aluminum silicate, activated alumina, and cow-dung ash (a traditional desiccant). Seeds were subsequently stored in hermetic plastic containers in the presence of these desiccants under ambient conditions along with sun-dried seeds stored in cloth bags or in hermetic containers. In addition, parallel samples of each treatment were inoculated with one pair of bruchid beetles (C. chinensis L.) and stored under the same conditions. The seed drying treatments did not affect initial seed quality (germination percentage and seedling vigor) significantly. After storage for 9 months at ambient temperatures, seeds dried using Drying Beads, silica gel, sodium aluminum silicate and activated alumina had higher germination percentages, seedling vigor indices and soil emergence, and lower electrical conductivity (leakage upon imbibition) and fungal infestation compared to other conditions. In addition, the mung bean seeds inoculated with bruchids and stored with these effective desiccants had less damage, oviposition, and insect respiratory activity in the hermetic containers and maintained higher seed germination and seedling vigor after six months of storage compared to other treatments and controls. The results demonstrate the superior ability of desiccants to quickly and safely dry seeds prior to and during storage and the benefits of such drying and hermetic storage conditions for preventing seed deterioration and insect damage during storage.
