Dielectric Relaxation in Strontium Titanates Containing Rare-Earth Ions (1970)

Ceramic samples of SrTiO3, containing a wide range of solid substitution of trivalent rare-earth ions, have been fabricated and examined in detail. Well-developed dielectric relaxation was observed in samples containing lanthanum, praesodymium, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, and lutetium, but not in samples containing cerium or europium. The relaxation occurs at normal low radio frequencies (102−105 Hz) in the temperature range −150° to +40°C, and there is a systematic variation of the relaxation parameters with both concentration and ionic size of the substituted ion. X-ray and density measurements confirm that as with lanthanum [T. Y. Tien and L. E. Cross, Jap. J. Appl. Phys. 6, 459 (1967)]. and bismuth [G. I. Skanavi, I. A. M. Ksendzov, V. A. Trigubenko, and V. G. Prokhvatilov, Sov. Phys. JETP 6, 250 (1959)] substitutions, two rare-earth ions and an associated vacancy substitute for three strontium ions in the ``A'' sites of the perovskite lattice. Possible explanations for the dielectric behavior are considered and it is shown that the data are consistent with an ionic model proposed earlier by Skanavi. [G. I. Skanavi and E. N. Matveeva, Sov. Phys. JETP 3, 905 (1957)].

Estimation of cloud droplet size density distribution from multiple-field-of-view lidar returns (1997)

A simple model based on diffraction and geometrical optics relates the field-of-view dependent lidar signal returns from clouds to the size density distribution of their water droplets. The relation is written in a matrix form. The apparent size density distribution is obtained via matrix inversion with a constraint technique. The perturbation caused by the geometrical optics is interpreted in terms of small-particle diffraction. The apparent size density distribution is corrected for multiple scattering a posteriori. The correction is established by calculating the relative con- tribution of the different scattering orders to the broadening of the scat- tering phase function. The validity of the model is supported by Monte Carlo simulations and by experimental data performed under controlled conditions. Finally the inversion technique is applied to multiple-field-of- view (MFOV) lidar measurements from real clouds. © 1997 Society of Photo- Optical Instrumentation Engineers. (S0091-3286(97)02712-8)
Functions of the Mirror Neuron System: Implications for Neurorehabilitation (2006)

Mirror neurons discharge during the execution of hand object-directed actions and during the observation of the same actions performed by other individuals. These neurons were first identified in the ventral premotor cortex (area F5) and later on in the inferior parietal lobule of monkey brain, thus constituting the mirror neuron system. More recently, mirror neurons for mouth object-directed actions have also been found in the monkey. Several pieces of experimental data demonstrate that a mirror neuron system devoted to hand, mouth, and foot actions is also present in humans. In the present paper we review the experimental evidence on the role of the mirror neuron system in action understanding, imitation learning of novel complex actions, and internal rehearsal (motor imagery) of actions. On the basis of features of the mirror neuron system and its role in action understanding and imitation, we discuss the possible use of action observation and imitation as an approach for systematic training in the rehabilitation of patients with motor impairment of the upper limb after stroke.
Machining Accuracy Improvement by Compensation of Machine and Workpiece Deformation (2017)

For workpieces of regular shape, recently achieved machining accuracy is satisfactory, but for workpieces of complex shape and thin walls form light alloy machining (e.g. helicopters gearbox cases, automotive parts etc.) it is still difficult to find proper environmental conditions without separating the machine form from its ambient temperature impact. A procedure for adjustment and self-testing has been proposed, prepared and successfully verified on existing flexible machining systems. An approach to improve the machining accuracy with high accuracy machining systems by use of special adjustment procedures and additional workpiece distortion compensations are presented in the paper.

Application of new technologies in New Zealand for beef cattle and deer improvement (2007)

Abstract This review considers the application of new technologies to beef cattle and deer improvement. Many potential opportunities are linked to the concept of monitoring and then tracing the unique identity (ID) of livestock through the use of DNA methods and electronic IDs, including: identifying or confirming pedigrees; collection of field, yard or abattoir data linked to an electronic ID; marker‐assisted selection using DNA and measured phenotypes; and trace‐back facilities for meat products at the point of sale by matching a DNA sample taken there with one taken earlier in the abattoir. Opportunities with assisted reproduction are described, with the greatest potential payoffs being from much wider use of artificial insemination, provided that more practical and economical insemination methods can be found (especially in beef herds). Some new goal traits are considered which could become more important than at present, when applied to new production environments (e.g., selection to improve feed conversion efficiency, resistance to feed‐borne toxins, resistance to nematode parasites, and deer calving earlier in the season). We conclude with a discussion of technology adoption for beef cattle and deer improvement.
Layout guidelines for web text and a web service to improve accessibility for dyslexics (2012)

In this paper, we offer set of guidelines and a web service that presents Web texts in a more more accessible way to people with dyslexia. The layout guidelines for developing this service are based on a user study with a group of twenty two dyslexic users. The data collected from our study combines qualitative data from interviews and questionnaires and quantitative data from tests carried out using eye tracking. We analyze and compare both kinds of data and present a set of layout guidelines for making the text Web more readable for dyslexic users. To the best of our knowledge, our methodology for defining dyslexic-friendly guidelines and our web service are novel.
DIETARY FATTY ACIDS, TOCOTRIENOLS AND CANCER (1998)

ABSTRACT High‐fat diets may increase the risk of cancer at sites such as the breast, colon, pancreas and prostate, although the evidence is somewhat mixed. The type of fat can affect its influence on cancer in experimental animals, but in humans on diets of mixed foodstuffs the quantity rather than the quality of fat is likely to be more important. Dietary fat may influence carcinogenesis by altering energy balance and in mammary cancer the effects may be mediated by the mammary adipose tissue. A variety of minor dietary components have been reported to possess anti‐cancer activity. Among these compounds, tocotrienols and flavonoids have been shown in our laboratory to inhibit proliferation of human breast cancer cells in culture, and to act synergistically with each other and with tamoxifen in the inhibition of these cells. This suggests that such combinations may be useful for prevention and/or treatment of breast cancer.
Deletion of <i>TDP-43</i> down-regulates <i>Tbc1d1</i> , a gene linked to obesity, and alters body fat metabolism (2010)

Tat activating regulatory DNA-binding protein (Tardbp or TDP-43), a highly conserved metazoan DNA/RNA binding protein thought to be involved in RNA transcription and splicing, has been linked to the pathophysiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration and is essential for early embryonic development. However, neither the physiological role of TDP-43 in the adult nor its downstream targets are well defined. To address these questions, we developed conditional Tardbp-KO mice and embryonic stem (ES) cell models. Here, we show that postnatal deletion of Tardbp in mice caused dramatic loss of body fat followed by rapid death. Moreover, conditional Tardbp-KO ES cells failed to proliferate. Importantly, high-throughput DNA sequencing analysis on the transcriptome of ES cells lacking Tardbp revealed a set of downstream targets of TDP-43. We show that Tbc1d1, a gene known to mediate leanness and linked to obesity, is down-regulated in the absence of TDP-43. Collectively, our results establish that TDP-43 is critical for fat metabolism and ES cell survival.
The Building Act - Questions Remain Unanswered (1992)

The long awaited Building Bill passed into law on 17 December 1991. Its main provisions, which take effect from 1 July 1992, mean that the working environment of building professionals will, for the first time, be regulated by a single statute aimed at providing a coordinated control regime on the nation's building activity.
Wireless Energy Transfer by Resonant Inductive Coupling (2015)

This thesis investigates wireless energy transfer systems based on resonant inductive coupling with applications such as charging electric vehicles.Wireless energy transfer can be used to power or charge stationary and moving objects and vehicles, and the interest in energy transfer over the air has grown considerably in recent years.We study wireless energy transfer systems consisting of two resonant circuits that are magnetically coupled via coils.Further, we explore the use of magnetic materials and shielding metal plates to improve the performance of the energy transfer.To ensure that the wireless energy transfer systems are safe to use by the general public, we optimize our systems to maximize the transferred power and efficiency subject to the constraint that the magnetic fields that humans or animals may be exposed to are limited in accordance with international guidelines.We find that magnetic materials can significantly increase the coupling between the two coils and reduce the induced currents and losses in the shielding metal plates.Further, we design wireless energy transfer systems capable of a peak-value power transfer of 1.3 kW with 90% efficiency over an air gap of 0.3 m.This is achieved without exceeding the exposure limit of magnetic fields in areas where humans can be present.Higher levels of transferred power is possible if larger magnetic fields are allowed.
Food and agriculture in the next quarter century (1976)

In 1972 the world food situation made an about‐face, turning from surpluses and low prices to relative scarcity and high prices. Those of a Malthusian persuasion judged that we had entered a period of chronic food scarcity in which demand, spurred by population growth and rising affluence, had begun to outrun the productive capacity of the world's farmers. Other, more sanguine, observers pointed out that man had thus far avoided the Malthusian specter and would somehow have the ingenuity, foresight, or luck to continue to “muddle through,” excepting, of course, the occasional national or regional famine.
Quantum Cascade Laser in Atmospheric Trace Gas Analysis (2015)

A key issue in ecosystem research and atmospheric studies is to detect and quantify low and ultra low concentrations of toxic trace gases. There has been an increasing concern about pollution of our living environment. Emission of a gas into the atmosphere usually dilutes rapidly and even at low levels of concentration, adverse effects can be noticed. The exact measurement of such low concentrations of atmosphere species poses a challenge to science and technology. When we take a ‘sample’ of the gas emission, the gas is extracted from a particular point and it is preconditioned. The method usually adopted is the ‘wet chemistry’ method. There are other methods in use, such as, gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, etc. These methods require that the gas samples be preconditioned before using it for analysis. Also, these methods are slow. Optical spectroscopic techniques work without the need for preconditioning of the gas sample. They can be used for real-time measurement and ‘in-situ’ analysis. In industrial applications, monitoring gases like oxygen/ozone, carbon monoxide, ammonium hydrochloride and hydrogen fluoride are routinely carried out. A laser based gas monitor provides continuous measurement with a fast response and high sensitivity of the order of a few seconds.
Automated Control System Security (2010)

Automated control systems (ACSs) lie at the heart of industrial and infrastructure systems and, as such, are one of the most critical parts of critical infrastructures. Yet the information security world has largely ignored these systems, and most information security folks seem to think that the protective processes, measures, and mechanisms that apply to general-purpose enterprise computers also apply to ACSs. At the same time, most control systems engineers know almost nothing about information protection and don't recognize even the potential for the sorts of things that information security professionals consider standard. This mismatch must be addressed, or we'll be paying the price for it for at least one generation.
Effect of Metal Ions in Organic Synthesis. part XVI. Knoevenagel Condensations of Aldehydes and Tosylhydrazones with 2,4-Pentanedione by Copper (II) Chloride-Catalyzed Reaction (1983)

Abstract Based on some of our previous findings on the activity of some metal ions in certain organic reactivities,1 we have now studied the Knoevenagel condensations of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes or their tosylhydrazone derivatives with 2,4-pentanedione. In the presence of catalytic amounts of anhydrous copper (II) chloride, these compounds react in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature, affording the corresponding alkylidene or arylidene compounds in 48–98% yields.
Expression of listeriolysin O by intracellular<i>Listeria monocytogenes</i>following infection of lipopolysaccharide-treated or untreated J774.1 macrophage-like cells (1996)

Listeria monocytogenes replicates in a phagocytic cell following escape into the host cytoplasm. Listeriolysin O, secreted by L. monocytogenes, which belongs to the thiol-activated hemolysin family, is known to play an important role in the escape of the bacterium into the host cytoplasm. In this study, we demonstrated that expression of listeriolysin O by infecting L. monocytogenes was lightly induced in J774.1 macrophage-like cells pretreated with lipopolysaccharide, although the growth of the bacteria was suppressed. The number of viable L. monocytogenes decreased until 4 h post-infection and then increased between 4 and 8 h post-infection in untreated J774.1 host cells, but it decreased until 8 h post-infection in lipopolysaccharide-treated host cells. However, expression of listeriolysin O by L. monocytogenes was not induced in the untreated host cells, while it increased 0 and 4 h post-infection in the lipopolysaccharide-treated host cells. Expression of listeriolysin O mRNA in the lipopolysaccharide-like cells. These results suggest that macrophage activation induced with lipopolysaccharide could lead to the expression of the listeriolysin O gene and the synthesis of listeriolysin O protein under suppression of the intracellular growth of L. monocytogenes.
Immunoadsorption in Myasthenia Gravis Based on Specific Ligands Mimicking the Immunogenic Sites of the Acetylcholine Receptor (2001)

A specific system for antibody removal from blood circulation in myasthenia gravis (MG) patients was devised by use of the immunoadsorbent bound to an acetylcholine receptor (AChR) peptide that was synthesized corresponding to the sequence of residues 183-200 of the AChR alpha-subunit (alpha 183-200), antibodies which prevent the binding of ACh to AChR. The alpha 183-200 peptide was confirmed to be immunogenic for induction of an animal model of the disease and for reactivity with MG autoantibodies. We then made use of these results for immunoadsorption therapy through the antigen-antibody reaction on the molecular level, having given patients relief from myasthenic weakness. The greatest care was taken for the selection of an antigenic region in the molecular structure among various myasthenogenic domains of AChR and for the antigenic conformation of synthetic peptide as the adsorbent to react with antibodies raised against the native protein.
A Pharmacokinetic Model of a Tissue Implantable Cortisol Sensor (2016)

Cortisol is an important glucocorticoid hormone whose biochemistry influences numerous physiological and pathological processes. Moreover, it is a biomarker of interest for a number of conditions, including posttraumatic stress disorder, Cushing's syndrome, Addison's disease, and others. An implantable biosensor capable of real time monitoring of cortisol concentrations in adipose tissue may revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders, as well as provide an invaluable research tool. Toward this end, a mathematical model, informed by the physiological literature, is developed to predict dynamic cortisol concentrations in adipose, muscle, and brain tissues, where a significant number of important processes with cortisol occur. The pharmacokinetic model is applied to both a prototypical, healthy male patient and a previously studied Cushing's disease patient. The model can also be used to inform the design of an implantable sensor by optimizing the sensor dissociation constant, apparent delay time, and magnitude of the sensor output versus system dynamics. Measurements from such a sensor would help to determine systemic cortisol levels, providing much needed insight for proper medical treatment for various cortisol-related conditions.
