Integrated Design and Rapid Manufacturing Over the Internet (1998)

Abstract An Internet-based infrastructure is being developed in order to provide designers with access to multiple layered-manufacturing services. The design domain being addressed is that of small mechanisms or electro-mechanical assemblies that would be used in robots or other mechatronic devices. The approach presented relies on the formalization of the data exchange interface between designers and manufacturers. The primary operatives in this system are Design Clients, Manufacturing Services and Process Brokers. The Design Client allows designers to submit completed designs for algorithmic decomposition, or alternately, to compose a design from primitives and library components that have been primed with some process-related information. During this early phase, the Manufacturing Service consists of a highly automated machine that can be used to build ceramic parts, and the associated software components for design decomposition, process planning and machine control. In later phases, multiple service providers will be made accessible. The Process Broker implements a number of supporting services including process selection and optimal part orientation. Future broker services will include manufacturability analysis, directory services and accreditation etc. Currently, this interface is being built and evaluated internally at Stanford and CMU. It will be made available for use by other selected universities in the near future.
Enhanced development of atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits by suppression of cell-mediated immunity. (1995)

T lymphocytes are present in atherosclerotic lesions, but the role of this cell type in the disease process has not been determined. To determine whether cell-mediated immunity influences atherogenesis, New Zealand White rabbits fed a cholesterol-supplemented diet (0.5% wt/wt) were treated with cyclosporin A (n = 20) or vehicle alone (n = 16) for 12 wk. The dose of cyclosporin A was adjusted so that a blood concentration between 100 and 200 ng/ml was maintained to achieve a selective action T-lymphocytes. Effectiveness of immunosuppression in cyclosporin A-treated rabbits was confirmed by allogeneic skin graft survival. Cyclosporin A administration did not affect total plasma lipid concentrations, body weight, or renal function. Percentage of aortic intimal area covered with atherosclerotic lesions was increased significantly by immunosuppression in both the arch region (75 +/- 3% [mean +/- SEM] compared with 60 +/- 5% in controls; P < 0.01) and the thoracic region (47 +/- 7% vs 27 +/- 6%; P = 0.04). Enhanced atherogenesis was not associated with diminished numbers of T lymphocytes in lesions, changes in T lymphocyte subtype, or any discernible change in cellular composition. Humoral immune responses to oxidized LDL were similar in the two groups: serum titres of autoantibodies against malondialdehyde-modified LDL were equivalent. These data demonstrate that cyclosporin A-induced suppression of cell-mediated immunity increased the development of macrophage-rich atherosclerotic lesions in cholesterol-fed rabbits.
Customer Data Driven PHEV Refuel Distance Modeling and Estimation (2017)

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) have an EV mode driving range which can cover a portion of customer daily driving. This EV mode range affects the refuel frequency substantially compared with conventional vehicle. For a conventional vehicle, daily driving pattern, tank size and fuel economy are the factors affecting the refuel frequency. While for a PHEV, EV range is another factor would affect the results substantially. Traditional method of label range can’t represent real world driving range between fill-ups for PHEV well. How to accurately predict the PHEV refuel distance taking into account real world customer driving patterns and PHEV parameters become critical for PHEV system design and optimization. This paper presents real world big customer data based PHEV refuel distance estimation modeling. The target is to estimate PHEV refuel distance given several specific parameters such as EV range, hybrid mode fuel economy, tank size etc. A big EuroFOT data set is used for the analysis and model development. Then a linear model is developed based on sensitivity analysis. The estimation results are compared with the NHTS data based estimation, and validated with the real world PHEV data. Finally an Neural Network based estimation model is proposed to further capture the non-linearity in the model and improve accuracy.</div></div>
The Motion Picture Distributing and Sales Company (2007)

The Universal Film Manufacturing Company, as well as its subsequent corporate descendants, grew directly from an association of early independent film producers called the Motion Picture Distributing and Sales Company. Organized to combat the Motion Picture Patents Company and its distributing arm, the General Film Company, the Sales Company proved an unwieldy amalgamation of competing independent interests. Through detailed analysis of news coverage in motion picture trade papers, the author discusses the history of the Sales Company (1910-12) and such competing associations as the National Independent Moving Picture Alliance and the Film Service Association.
Spatial attention and neglect: parietal, frontal and cingulate contributions to the mental representation and attentional targeting of salient extrapersonal events (1999)

The syndrome of contralesional neglect reflects a lateralized disruption of spatial attention. In the human, the left hemisphere shifts attention predominantly in the contralateral hemispace and in a contraversive direction whereas the right hemisphere distributes attention more evenly, in both hemispaces and both directions. As a consequence of this asymmetry, severe contralesional neglect occurs almost exclusively after right hemisphere lesions. Patients with left neglect experience a loss of salience in the mental representation and conscious perception of the left side and display a reluctance to direct orientating and exploratory behaviours to the left. Neglect is distributed according to egocentric, allocentric, world-centred, and object-centred frames of reference. Neglected events can continue to exert an implicit influence on behaviour, indicating that the attentional filtering occurs at the level of an internalized representation rather than at the level of peripheral sensory input. The unilateral neglect syndrome is caused by a dysfunction of a large-scale neurocognitive network, the cortical epicentres of which are located in posterior parietal cortex, the frontal eye fields, and the cingulate gyrus. This network coordinates all aspects of spatial attention, regardless of the modality of input or output. It helps to compile a mental representation of extrapersonal events in terms of their motivational salience, and to generate 'kinetic strategies' so that the attentional focus can shift from one target to another.
Lithium Insertion in LiCr3 O 8, NaCr3 O 8, and KCr3 O 8 at Room Temperature and at 125°C (1989)

Lithium insertion and deinsertion reactions have been carried out with , , and chemically and electrochemically at room temperature and at 125°C. The electrochemical experiments were performed with a nonaqueous liquid electrolyte at room temperature and with a polymer electrolyte at high temperature. At both temperatures, inserts chemically and electrochemically ca. 4 and 5 Li per formula unit, respectively. Experimental data reveal that the reaction involves major structural changes. Insertion of only small amounts of Li leads to irreversible structural breakdown. At elevated temperatures, the isostructural compounds and are able to accommodate more than . During this process, minor structural changes are observed. At room temperature, and also accommodate Li topotactically, but the maximum number of Li inserted per formula is close to and . Lithium ion diffusion coefficients are similar for the two compounds in the comparable composition range. Thermally, the fully lithiated compounds appear to be as stable as the pristine materials.

Atomic-force-microscope-compatible near-field scanning microwave microscope with separated excitation and sensing probes (2007)

We present the design and experimental results of a near-field scanning microwave microscope working at a frequency of 1 GHz. Our microscope is unique in that the sensing probe is separated from the excitation electrode to significantly suppress the common-mode signal. Coplanar waveguides were patterned onto a silicon nitride cantilever interchangeable with atomic force microscope tips, which are robust for high speed scanning. In the contact mode that we are currently using, the numerical analysis shows that contrast comes from both the variation in local dielectric properties and the sample topography. Our microscope demonstrates the ability to achieve high resolution microwave images on buried structures, as well as nanoparticles, nanowires, and biological samples.
PRMT5, Which Forms Distinct Homo-oligomers, Is a Member of the Protein-arginine Methyltransferase Family (2001)

We found that JBP1, known as a human homolog (Skb1Hs) of Skb1 of fission yeast, interacts with NS3 of the hepatitis C virus in a yeast two-hybrid screen. Amino acid sequence analysis revealed that Skb1Hs/JBP1 contains conserved motifs of S-adenosyl-l-methionine-dependent protein-arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs). Here, we demonstrate that Skb1Hs/JBP1, named PRMT5, is a distinct member of the PRMT family. Recombinant PRMT5 protein purified from human cells methylated myelin basic protein, histone, and the amino terminus of fibrillarin fused to glutathione S-transferase. Myelin basic protein methylated by PRMT5 contained monomethylated and dimethylated arginine residues. Recombinant glutathione S-transferase-PRMT5 protein expressed in Escherichia coli also contained the catalytic activity. Sedimentation analysis of purified PRMT5 on a sucrose density gradient indicated that PRMT5 formed distinct homo-oligomeric complexes, including a dimer and tetramer, that comigrated with the enzyme activity. The PRMT5 homo-oligomers were dissociated into a monomer in the presence of a reducing agent, whereas a monomer, dimer, and multimer were detected in the absence or at low concentrations of a reducing agent. The results indicate that both covalent linkage by a disulfide bond and noncovalent association are involved in the formation of PRMT5 homo-oligomers. Western blot analysis of sedimentation fractions suggests that endogenous PRMT5 is present as a homo-oligomer in a 293T cell extract. PRMT5 appears to have lower specific enzyme activity than PRMT1. Although PRMT1 is known to be mainly located in the nucleus, human PRMT5 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm.

Investigation of Potential-Induced Degradation in n-PERT Bifacial Silicon Photovoltaic Modules with a Glass/Glass Structure (2017)

Potential-induced degradation (PID) in n-type passivated emitter, rear totally diffused (n-PERT) bifacial crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules with a glass/glass structure is investigated. From front-side measurements, a significant loss in the short-circuit current (I <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">sc</sub> ) and a relatively smaller loss in the open-circuit voltage (V <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">oc</sub> ) and fill factor (FF) are observed due to PID. A similar degradation behavior is observed from the rear side, except that there is negligible change in I <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">sc</sub> . External quantum efficiency and photoluminescence measurements reveal that the losses in I <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">sc</sub> and V <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">oc</sub> are most likely due to an increase in the front surface recombination. FF loss analysis and two-diode model fitting demonstrate that the FF loss is mainly attributed to an increased recombination in the space charge regions. Moreover, n-PERT bifacial silicon modules also suffer from PID when they are stressed from the rear side. Furthermore, some ethylene-vinyl acetate and polyolefin, which show high PID-resistance to conventional p-type technologies, are found to be not as effective in preventing PID in n-PERT technologies. However, a PID-free n-PERT bifacial module design is possible with the application of the sodium-free glass. Finally, the progression of PID is heavily dependent on the bias voltage and stress temperature.
Fetal expression of GnRH and GnRH receptor genes in rat testis and ovary (1998)

The identification of gonadal gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors (GnRH-R) and evidence of direct inhibitory effects of GnRH agonists upon steroidogenesis in adult rat gonads, lend credence to a putative intragonadal role of a locally secreted GnRH or GnRH-like peptide. Using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction followed by Southern blot hybridization and sequencing, we identified, both in the ovary and in the testis of fetal and adult rats, a fully processed GnRH messenger RNA (mRNA), the sequence of which, in adult testis, was identical to that found in the hypothalamus. We also detected in the testis, but not in the ovary, a transcript containing the first intron. The ontogeny of GnRH and GnRH-R gene expression was studied in rat gonads from 14.5 to 21.5 days post-coitum (dpc), using dot blot hybridization of total RNA. During this period, the levels of cyclophilin mRNA normalized to total RNA remained unchanged. Thus, we used cyclophilin as an internal standard. GnRH mRNA was detected in the ovary at 18.5 dpc, four days later than in the testis, and similar levels were found in both sexes at birth. GnRH-R mRNA was present at 14.5 dpc in the testis and at 15.5 dpc in the ovary, with the levels at 21.5 dpc being 2.4 times higher in the testis than in the ovary. GnRH and GnRH-R mRNA levels increased in both sexes in late fetal development, but this increase appeared two days sooner in the ovary compared with the testis, thus supporting the hypothesis that expression of the GnRH and GnRH-R genes is regulated in a sex-dependent manner during fetal development. In all cases, expression of GnRH and GnRH-R preceded gonadotropin receptors in the gonads and initiation of gonadotropin secretion by the pituitary.
OPTIMIZATION AND IMPROVEMENT IN STABILITY OF COUNTERFORT RETAINING WALL WITH RELIEF SHELF (2015)

Reinforced concrete retaining walls are meant to support more height of earth mass. Cantilever retaining wall is constructed up to height of 6 m and above that it becomes uneconomical. To support more height of earth mass advancement is done in cantilever retaining wall by adding relief shelf in it. Due to provision of relief shelf the soil pressure on the retaining wall is reduced resulting in improvement in stability of retaining wall. Cantilever retaining wall with one relief shelf is economical up to height of 10 m above that counterfort retaining wall with relief shelf is useful. In this paper analysis and design of counterfort retaining wall with one relief shelf is done for various positions of relief shelf. These results are studied to get minimum earth pressure, more stability and minimum moment in each component of retaining wall. The optimization of counterfort retaining wall is done to get minimum size of retaining wall. Due to this optimization extra formation width is available in hilly areas and excessive cutting is avoided thereby construction cost reduces.
An Efficient Message Management Scheme in Game Engine (2008)

Plasma membrane vesicles are shed from monolayer cell cultures during incubation in low concentrations of formaldehyde and other sulphydryl blocking reagents. In both 3T3 and SV3T3 cells disulphide reducing agents, including dithiothreitol and mercaptoethanol, potentiate formaldehyde-induced vesiculation. Plasma membrane vesiculation is shown to be a temperature-dependent phenomenon which occurs optimally between 22 and 37 degrees C and at pH 7.0 to 7.5. Membrane shedding is an energy-dependent phenomenon, requiring monovalent and divalent cations and slightly hypertonic medium. Plasma membrane vesiculation is not affected by pretreatment of cells with inhibitors of protein synthesis, i.e. cycloheximide, nor by agents which disrupt the cytoskeleton.
Development of a Protocol for CCD Calibration: Application to a Multispectral Imaging System (2005)

In this paper we describe in detail a method for calibrating a CCD-based camera. The calibration aims to remove both temporal and systematic noises introduced by the sensor, electronics, and optics after which we can correct the non-linearity of its response. For the non-linearity correction we use a simple and powerful approach consisting on a complementary approach between a polynomial fitting and an LUT based algorithm. The proposed methodology is accurate in the sense that it takes into account individual characteristics of each pixel. In each pixel, systematic noises are measured through acquiring offset images, thermal images, and FlatField images. A rigorous protocol for acquiring these images based on experimentation is established. The method to acquire Flat-Field image is novel and is particularly efficient in that it can correct all defects due to non-uniform pixel responses, vignettage, blemishes on optic and/or filters, and perhaps even illumination nonuniformity. We notice that such a methodology of calibration is particularly efficient in the case of an optical filter based multispectral imaging system, although it remains valid for any imaging system based on a CCD sensor.

Power Allocation and Pricing in Multiuser Relay Networks Using Stackelberg and Bargaining Games (2012)

This paper considers a multiuser single-relay wireless network, where the relay gets paid for helping users forward signals, and the users pay to receive the relay service. We study the relay power allocation and pricing problems and model the interaction between the users and the relay as a two-level Stackelberg game. In this game, the relay, which is modeled as the service provider and the leader of the game, sets the relay price to maximize its revenue, whereas the users are modeled as customers and followers who buy power from the relay for higher transmission rates. We use a bargaining game to model the negotiation among users to achieve a fair allocation of relay power. Based on the proposed fair relay power allocation rule, the optimal relay power price that maximizes the relay revenue is derived analytically. Simulation shows that the proposed power allocation scheme achieves higher network sum rate and relay revenue than the even power allocation. Furthermore, compared with the sum-rate-optimal solution, simulation shows that the proposed scheme achieves better fairness with comparable network sum rate for a wide range of network scenarios. The proposed pricing and power allocation solutions are also shown to be consistent with the laws of supply and demand.
