Adaptive forecast-based real-time optimal reservoir operations: application to Lake Urmia (2019)

Abstract Boukan Dam reservoir is the largest infrastructure constructed on the Zarineh-Roud River regulating streamflow for different uses including supplying water to Lake Urmia, the second largest salt lake in the world. This paper presents a forecast-based adaptive real-time optimal operation model (ARTOM) for Boukan reservoir with the aim of maximizing releases feeding the lake while meeting other needs such as irrigation, industrial, and domestic uses. Adaptive neuro-fuzzy system-based inflow-to-reservoir forecasts are used in the ARTOM to determine optimal releases from the reservoir for future months up to the end of a year, but only the current period's release is applied. At the beginning of the next period, the forecasts are updated, and the procedure is repeated until the last period of the year. Additionally, the optimal terminal end-of-year reservoir storage volume is a dynamic updating input to the ARTOM, which is estimated from the results of a long-term reservoir operation optimization model. The ARTOM performance is tested against the last nine-year monthly data not utilized for training the forecast module. Results demonstrate that the ARTOM attains an objective function value very close to the best possible value that can ever be reached by utilizing an ideal operation model, benefiting from perfect foresight on future streamflows.
Effect of Exposure to an Alcohol Diet for 10 Days on the Ability of Interleukin‐1β to Release ACTH and Corticosterone in the Adult Ovariectomized Female Rat (1993)

Adult ovariectomized female rats were fed an alcohol diet for 10 days. Animals fed ad libitum, or fed an isocaloric diet (pair-fed), were also included in all experiments. The intravenous injection of interleukin-1 beta caused dose-related increases in plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) levels in all three groups of rats. However, alcohol-fed animals showed a significant blunting of their ACTH, but not corticosterone response, in comparison with rats fed ad libitum or pair-fed. In contrast, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) injection caused overall statistically comparable ACTH secretory rates in all animals, although small differences were observed in some cases. Exposure to mild electroshocks for 30 min significantly increased ACTH values in all animals, but alcohol-fed rats again showed blunted release. In this paradigm, pair-fed animals exhibited a response that was intermediate between that of the ad libitum and alcohol-fed groups. We conclude that chronic alcohol consumption decreases the response of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis to cytokines and mild footshocks. This suggests that the activity of both CRF nerve terminals in the median eminence, and of CRF perikarya in the hypothalamus, is inhibited by this treatment, although pituitary responsiveness to CRF appears unchanged.
A passive protected self-healing mesh network architecture and applications (1994)

The self-healing mesh network architecture using digital cross-connect systems (DCSs) is a crucial part of an integrated network restoration system. The conventional DCS self-healing networks using logical channel protection may require a large amount of spare capacity for network components (such as DCSs) and may not restore services fast enough (e.g., within 2 s). The authors propose a passive protected DCS self-healing network (PPDSHN) architecture using a passive protection cross-connect network for network protection. For the PPDSHN architecture, network restoration is performed in the optical domain and is controlled by electronic working DCS systems. Some case studies have suggested that the proposed PPDSHN architecture may restore services within a two-second objective with less equipment cost than the conventional DCS self-healing network architecture in high-demand metropolitan areas for local exchange carrier networks. The proposed PPDSHN architecture may apply to not only the centralized and distributed control DCS network architectures, but also asynchronous, SONET and ATM DCS networks. Transparency of line rates and transmission formats makes the PPDSHN network even more attractive when network evolution is a key concern of network planning.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Nonlinear Fitting Method for Determining Local False Discovery Rates from Decoy Database Searches (2008)

False discovery rate (FDR) analyses of protein and peptide identification results using decoy database searching conventionally report aggregate or global FDRs for a whole set of identifications, which are often not very informative about the error rates of individual members in the set. We describe a nonlinear curve fitting method for calculating the local FDR, which estimates the chance that an individual protein (or peptide) is incorrect, and present a simple tool that implements this analysis. The goal of this method is to offer a simple extension to the now commonplace decoy database searching, providing additional valuable information.

Vertically integrated sensor arrays: VISA (2004)

The VISA program has been sponsored by DARPA to enable a significant enhancement in signal conditioning, processing, and digitalization on the focal plane of visible and infrared sensors. The approach being developed builds on the traditional “hybrid” structure of a detector with a 2D array of indium-bump interconnects to a silicon readout. VISA will allow additional layers of silicon processing chips to be connected below the readout to provide more complex functionality. Connections will be fully arrayed two-dimensionally with one or more vias per pixel possible. The structural overview will be presented along with several application candidates that appear to be most promising to exploit this technology. These include active/passive sensors, expanded charge storage capacity for full flux utilization in the LWIR, cameras on a chip, high speed sub-frame collection to defeat pulsed laser interference, together with digital output with greater bit depth than currently possible from analog outputs. An A/D candidate circuit to achieve this performance within each pixel will be described.
Automatic and reliable estimation of glottal closure instant and period (1989)

The authors present an automatic and reliable algorithm for determining glottal closure instant (GCI). As a byproduct, nonstationary fundamental period estimation is achieved. The computation includes twelve-pole speech linear-prediction analysis, cross correlation, and both direct and inverse fast Fourier transforms (or a convolution). Maximum-likelihood epoch determination is used as the basis for locating GCIs, and the Hilbert transformation is applied to improve performance and reliability. A description of the system and the voiced/unvoiced/mixed (V/UV/M) decision procedure is given. The results show that the algorithm works in noise-free, noisy, and very noisy signals for vowels as well as for voiced constants. The proposed pitch estimation only needs a very short frame length and gives accurate results at voice onset.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

Titanium film was deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide-coated glass substrate(FTO) by electron beam evaporation(EBEAM),ultra-long titania nanotube arrays/FTO electrode was fabricated by potentiostatic anodization of the titanium film in C2H6O2+NH4F electrolyte at room temperature.The structure and the composition of the titania nanotube arrays/FTO electrode were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope(FESEM),transmission electron microscope(TEM),X-ray photoelectron spectroscope(XPS),X-ray diffraction(XRD) and transmission spectrometer.The results show that inner diameter and length of the as-prepared titania nanotube are 43nm and 5.4μm respectively.The titania nanotube arrays/FTO transparent electrode after annealing in air is of anatase phase with length of 5μm.The transmittance of the titania nanotube arrays is 45% in visible wavelength range and an absorbance peak is observed at wavelength of 400nm.
Energy and reserve market designs with explicit consideration to lost opportunity costs (2003)

The primary goal of this work is to investigate the basic energy and reserve dispatch optimization (cooptimization) in the setting of a pool-based market. Of particular interest is the modeling of lost opportunity cost introduced by reserve allocation. The authors derive the marginal costs of energy and reserves under a variety of market designs. They also analyze existence, algorithm, and multiplicity of optimal solutions. The results of this study are used to support the reserve market design and implementation in ISO New England control area.
Selective Band Structure Modulation of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Ionic Liquids (2009)

A simple method was developed for the reversible and selective modification of metallic and large diameter semiconducting SWCNTs in [BMIM]PF(6) ionic liquids by adding certain anion surfactants. The electronic band structure of SWCNTs can be controlled and tuned over a range by varying the surfactants used and their concentrations. A charge transfer "cation- product operator" complex model was proposed. This method is mild without damaging the structure of SWCNTs.

Cytokines in Liver Ischemia-reperfusion Injury (2010)

Liver ischemia-reperfusion injury occurs in a number of clinical settings,including liver surgery,transplantation,and circulatory shock,leading to the significantly increased morbidity and mortality from relative complications. Now extensive investigations have implicated that cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) ,interleukin-12(IL-12) and IL-6 contributeto the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) injury and an increase in the production of those cytokines is detected following the hepatic resections and organ transplants bypass surgery. Current evidence indicates that these cytokines are involved in each stage of hepatic I/R injury,whereas these cytokines have controversial roles in the process. The purpose of this article is to review the roles of relative cytokines in I/R injury.
A robust traction controller design using the theory of variable structure systems (2002)

A robust vehicle traction control algorithm which includes anti-skid braking and anti-spin acceleration is proposed. The scheme is a non-linear feedback control system in which the theory of variable structure systems (VSS) has been utilized to design the controllers. The control system, brake controller and engine controller are discussed in detail. The effectiveness of this new algorithm is demonstrated by experiments on anti-skid braking.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

The Impact of Member Bank Reserves upon the Money Supply (1963)

Since the publication of Professor Phillips' book, Bank Credit, in 1920, the process of bank credit expansion and contraction has been reasonably well understood.' Notable work since then by such writers as Lawrence, Angell and Ficek, Collery, and Emmer has advanced the theoretical structure to quite a refined level.2 The empirical basis for the theory has received scant attention, however. Consequently, existing literature provides Federal Reserve policymakers with comparatively little basis for estimating the probable effects of System actions upon bank credit, deposits, or the money supply. This study suggests a possible method for making such estimates.3 Primary emphasis is placed upon the impact of member bank required reserves upon the money supply, but with slight modification the approach could be used to estimate the effect of total reserves on the money supply.4 It is also adaptable for measuring relationships between required or total reserves and bank credit or deposits. It could in addition provide a basis for forecasting the impact of a given level of net borrowed or free reserves upon bank credit, deposits, or the money supply if a way is found to predict the relationships between free or net borrowed and required reserves.',6 The balance of the article is divided into

Contraception with LHRH agonists, a new physiological approach. (1982)

The paradoxical antifertility effects of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists in experimental male and female animals have been reported. Treatment with LHRH induces luteolysis and inhibits ovulation in normal women; in men, the same treatment decreases testicular steroidogenesis. This paper examines the mechanisms responsible for the paradoxical antifertility effects of LHRH agonists. A series of experiments was conducted in rats to determine the following: 1) the effect of lower and more physiological doses of the LHRH agonist on testicular gonadotropin receptors, 2) the time course of the effect of daily administration of 1 mcg of LHRH agonist on testicular and plasma concentration of steroid intermediates, 3) cellular changes occurring in the testis during longterm administration of the agonist, and 4) characteristics of LHRH receptors in the testis. The results show that LHRH agonists: 1) produce an inhibiting effect on testicular prolactin receptor concentrations, 2) can cause a dramatic fall in testicular androstenedione and testosterone concentration following treatment, 3) induce degenerative cellular changes in rat testis during longterm administration, and 4) may play a role in the physiological control of gonadal functions by a locally produced LHRH-like molecule. Similar experiments on the ovarian functions in female rats show that relatively low doses of LHRH agonist leads to marked loss of ovarian LH (luteinizing hormone) receptor accompanied by a decreased plasma progesterone concentration and uterine weight. The presence of specific ovarian LHRH receptors raises the possibility that LHRH secreted locally could be involved in the control of ovarian activity. In 6 normal men, a single intranasal administration of a potent LHRH agonist clearly showed inhibition of testicular steroidogenesis while studies on the luteolytic and antiovulatory activity in normal women demonstrated a luteolytic action of LHRH and its agonists. Progesterone secretion from the corpus luteum is important for the implantation and the maintenance of early pregnancy. The intranasal route of administration of LHRH agonists offers the advantage of easy, routine application by the general population.
Maintaining Gut Integrity During Parenteral Nutrition of Tumor-Bearing Rats: Effects of Glucagon-Like Peptide 2 (2000)

Maintaining tumor-bearing rats on total parenteral nutrition (TPN) for eight days significantly reduced mass, protein, and DNA in small intestine and colon. Coinfusion of glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) significantly increased each of these variables in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, but not in the colon. Histological analysis of tissue revealed normal mucosa thickness and villus height in the small intestine of GLP-2-treated rats, whereas non-treated rats maintained on TPN exhibited villus shortening and thinning of the mucosa. Compared with TPN alone, no significant effects of GLP-2 were noted on tumor growth, liver weight, or heart weight. Coinfusion of GLP-2 with TPN had no significant effect on TPN-associated immunosuppression, as measured by mitogen-induced proliferation of cultured splenocytes. Although translocation of bacteria to the mesenteric lymph nodes appeared to be reduced in GLP-2-treated rats, the difference between groups was not statistically significant. These results suggest that hormonal alterations may be more important than an absence of luminal nutrition in TPN-associated mucosa changes in tumor-bearing rats. Additionally, maintenance of gut integrity during TPN does not appear to be a sufficient condition for the avoidance of the negative sequelae associated with this route of supplemental nutrition.
Plasma‐Developed X‐Ray Resists (1980)

A novel plasma‐development method using an oxygen plasma and new materials which optimize sensitivity have been evaluated as x‐ray resists at the 4.37Å wavelength. Both negative and positive tone images can be obtained upon plasma development. To date, negative tone images are more technologically important. X‐ray absorbing host polymers and moderately volatile guest monomers are used. Images are developed after exposure and low temperature fixing under vacuum by differential development in an oxygen plasma. Examples are presented for monomers which are locked by free radical and cationic mechanisms. One composition which has optimum properties is a mixture of 81 weight percent poly(2,3‐dichloro‐1‐propyl acrylate) and N‐vinyl carbazole. With it features as small as 0.3 μm were resolved for a short 1.5 min exposure time. These resists and processes are suitable only for multilevel resist processing schemes which are demonstrated.

Increased immunogenicity of inactivated influenza virus vaccine containing purified surface antigen compared with whole virus in elderly women (1994)

Thirty-eight elderly female subjects (aged 80 +/- 7 years, mean +/- standard deviation) were randomized to immunization with trivalent inactivated influenza virus vaccine containing either purified surface antigen (n = 18) or whole virus (n = 20) components from A/Texas/36/91 (H1N1), A/Beijing/353/89 (H3N2), and B/Panama/45/90 strains. Humoral and cellular immune responses were assessed by measuring serum hemagglutination inhibition antibodies and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity at 0 and 3 weeks postvaccination. Serological responses to both of the type A vaccine strains following immunization with surface antigen vaccine (SAV) were significantly more frequent and greater in magnitude than those induced by whole-virus vaccine. Antibody responses to the B/Panama component were modest and did not differ significantly between the two vaccines. Persons given SAV, but not those given whole-virus vaccine, had a small but significant increase in mean percent specific lysis of influenza A (H1N1) virus-infected autologous targets by peripheral blood mononuclear cells which were stimulated in vitro with influenza A (H1N1) virus. The H1N1-stimulated cytotoxic effectors induced by SAV were CD8+ and were not cross-reactive against H3N2-infected targets. Influenza B virus-specific CTL responses were not observed with either vaccine. These results suggest that currently available subunit influenza virus vaccines may offer an advantage over inactivated whole-virus preparations for inducing humoral and cellular immune responses in the elderly, although the CTL response may be too limited to be of physiological significance.
