Floating ring: a new tool for visualizing distortion in map projections (2002)

The authors present a new method for interactive visualization of distortion in map projections. The central idea is a floating ring on a sphere (globe) that can be interactively positioned and scaled. As the ring is manipulated on the globe, the corresponding projection of the ring is distorted using the same map projection parameters. They apply this method to study a real and angular distortion. This method is particularly useful when analyzing large geographical extents (such as in global climate studies) where distortions are significant, as well as visualizations for which information is geo-referenced and perhaps scaled to the underlying map. It serves as a reminder that distortion exists in maps and provides information about the degree, location, and type of distortion.
Accelerated path delay fault simulation (2003)

Due to fanout in a circuit, the speed efficiency of existing path delay fault simulation algorithms suffers from redundant evaluations of many circuit nodes in the backtrace process of every simulation pass. This paper introduces two new concepts-subpath event sensitizability (SES) and subpath event sensitizability robustness (SESR). Based on these new concepts, the authors propose a new procedure for path delay fault simulation whereby each node of the simulated circuit is evaluated only once per simulation pass in the backtrace process. Experiments with the ISCAS'85 benchmark circuits show that the procedure accelerates path delay fault simulation significantly. The proposed procedure can be implemented for parallel pattern path delay fault simulation. The concepts of SES and SESR can also improve both CPU time and memory efficiency of path delay fault simulation if only a subset of all the paths is considered.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Current molecular diagnostics of breast cancer and the potential incorporation of microRNA (2009)

Although comprehensive molecular diagnostics and personalized medicine have sparked excitement among researchers and clinicians, they have yet to be fully incorporated into today's standard of care. This is despite the discovery of disease-related oncogenes, tumor-suppressor genes and protein biomarkers, as well as other biological anomalies related to cancer. Each year, new tests are released that could potentially supplement or surpass standard methods of diagnosis, including serum, protein and gene expression analyses. All of these novel approaches have shown great promise, but initial enthusiasm has diminished as difficulties in reproducibility, expense, standardization and proof of significance beyond current protocols have emerged. This review will focus on current and novel molecular diagnostic tools applied to breast cancer with special attention to the exciting new field of microRNA analysis.
A Review of Corneal Biomechanics after LASIK and SMILE and the Current Methods of Corneal Biomechanical Analysis (2015)

Corneal refractive surgeries for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and hyperopia are quick and effective procedures, and have been growing in popularity over the last two decades. However, post-surgery corneal ectasia remains one of the most feared surgical complications. This is where the biomechanical integrity of the cornea begins to fail, with progressive thinning of the stroma, steepening of the cornea, irregular astigmatism, and decreased distance visual acuity. Laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is currently the most common refractive surgery procedure. It uses a femtosecond laser or a microkeratome to cut a thin flap on the surface of the cornea. Corneal tissue is then photoablated to correct the refractive error and the flap is then replaced at the end of the procedure. Newer techniques such as small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) make use of a small incision only, without flap creation, and a lenticule is extracted to correct the refractive error. The avoidance of flap creation should theoretically maintain the integrity of the anterior corneal region and lower the risk of corneal ectasia, but there have been few clinical studies to date that compare the corneal biomechanical outcomes of different procedures. In this review, we highlight the biomechanical differences in outcomes between LASIK and SMILE, as well as explain some of the in vivo and in vitro techniques to investigate corneal biomechanical parameters.
ACTION SPECTRA FOR THE trans TO cis PHOTOISOMERISATION OF UROCANIC ACID in vitro and IN MOUSE SKIN (1993)

Urocanic acid (UCA) is a major UV chromophore in the upper layers of the skin where it is found predominantly as the trans isomer. UV irradiation induces photoisomerisation of trans-UCA to cis-UCA which has been shown to mimic some of the immunosuppressive properties of UV exposure. We examined the wavelength dependence for trans-UCA to cis-UCA photoisomerisation in vitro and in mouse skin in vivo over the spectral range 270-340 nm. The resulting action spectra were very similar with maximal effectiveness at 300-315 nm and equal activity at 270 nm and 325-330 nm, demonstrating that UVA-II radiation (320-340 nm) is efficient at UCA photoisomerisation. These action spectra differed markedly from the trans-UCA absorption spectrum in vitro and also the reported action spectrum for UV suppression of contact hypersensitivity in mice. These findings suggest that the relationship between cis-UCA formation in skin and UV-induced immunosuppression may be complex.

CELL-MEDIATED CYTOTOXICITY DURING REJECTION AND ENHANCEMENT OF ALLOGENEIC SKIN GRAFTS IN RATS (1972)

Cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) in spleens and lymph nodes of allografted rats was determined by release of (51)Cr from labeled target cells incubated with aggressor lymphoid cells. CMC was first detected in grafted adult rats on day 5, peaked on days 7 and 8, and declined rapidly to background levels by days 9 to 11. In allografted neonates and in cyclophosphamide-treated or neonatally thymectomized adults CMC was a fraction of that observed in normal adult rats. Enhancing antibodies deferred in vivo peak activity of CMC in allografted neonates for 3-4 days, and blocked in vitro the action of aggressor lymphocytes by binding to target cells. Enhancing antibodies had no effect on the cytotoxicity of aggressor cells, but horse antibodies to rat thoracic duct cells inhibited in vitro CMC of aggressor cells.
THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS (TPE) BLOCK COPOLYMERS, A NEW MATERIAL PLATFORM FOR MICROFLUIDICS : PROOF OF CONCEPT FOR COMPLEX SIPHON VALVING ON CD (2008)

Using commercially available SEBS (sty rene)-(ethylene/butylene)-(styrene) block copolymers, we demonstrate that thermoplastic elastomeric TPE represented an opportunity to solve the equation PDMS + TP = TPE, meaning a way to possess a material solution that is transparent, biocompatible and flexible as PDMS and has thermoforming processing characteristics of TP like PMMA. We demonstrate excellent replication and enhanced de-moulding capabilities using SU8 mold, we report easy reversible bonding capabilities for all based CDlab thermoplastics device. Through single and double siphon valving strategy, we finally demonstrate sequential flows of three functional reagents in hybridization column.
Modeling, Simulation, and Control of Switched Reluctance Motor Drives (2005)

This paper presents the modeling, simulation, and control aspects of four-quadrant switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives. The design of SRM drive systems must be focused on application-based appropriate control and engineering solutions needed to overcome the practical issues. A complex model is described for the physical motor simulation to incorporate the important dynamics of the SRM. A simpler, but quite accurate, model is presented for the SRM controller. Various practical limitations have been incorporated in the simulation model to make it closer to the experimental setup. The SRM control parameters are chosen based on torque-per-ampere maximization requirement. Experimental results for a 1.0-kW SRM obtained on a digital platform are presented along with useful guidelines for prototype implementation.
Friction of Clean Metals and Oxides with Special Reference to Titanium (1954)

The friction coefficients of freshly cut surfaces in inert atmosphere are compared with values on the same surfaces later exposed to air. The kind of metal or oxide comprising the friction couple was also varied. From experimental data it was concluded that: (1) Solid phase welding accounts for almost the entire magnitude of the static friction coefficient for metal-metal couples. (2) Fe-Ag does not solid phase weld, other insoluble couples examined do weld. (3) A measure of solid phase weldability appears to be the quotient of the work of adhesion and the shear strength of the weaker couple. (4) Titanium does not solid phase weld to crystalline oxides to any greater extent than copper. (5) Freshly cut titanium solid phase welds to other metals in frictional contact. The degree of welding is independent of the atmosphere (air, nitrogen, or argon) or the time (less than 24 hours) at room temperature in such atmospheres. This behavior is contrary to that experienced with iron or copper With the latter couples less than five minutes exposure of a freshly cut surface to air is sufficient to markedly reduce the degree of solid phase welding. (6) The seizability of titanium is probably due to the lack of resistance, of the contaminant film formed on it in air, to penetration or wear in frictional contact.
Current Molecular Techniques for the detection of Microbial Pathogens (2007)

Traditionally the detection of microbial pathogens in clinical, environmental or food samples has commonly needed the prelevation of cells by culture before the application ofthe detection strategy. This is done to increase cell number thereby overcoming problems associated with the sensitivity of classical detection strategies. However, culture-based methods have the disadvantages of taking longer, usually are more complex and require skilled personnel as well as not being able to detect viable but non cultivable microbial species. A number of molecular methods have been developed in the last 10 to 15 years to overcome these issues and to facilitate the rapid, accurate, sensitive and cost effective identification and enumeration of microorganisms which are designed to replace and/or support classical approaches to microbial detection. Amongst these new methods, ones based on the polymerase chain reaction and nucleic acid hybridization have been shown to be particularly suitable for this purpose. This review generally summarizes some of the current and emerging nucleic acid based molecular approaches for the detection, discrimination andquantification ofmicrobes in environmental, food and clinical samples and includes reference to the recently developing areas of microfluidics and nanotechnology "Lab-on-a-chip".
Programming a Hydrogen‐Bonding Code for the Specific Generation of a Supermacrocycle (1996)

Infinite channels with a diameter 10.5 Å are formed by the DNA-base hybrid 1 in the solid state. These channels arise because 1 specifically communicates the hydrogen bonding codes of the nucleobases cytosine and guanine (“C” and “G”) to unambiguously assemble hexagonal, macrocyclic aggregates 16, which overlap in the crystal.
State-vector feedback control-based 100 kHz carrier PWM power conditioning amplifier and its high-precision current-tracking scheme (2002)

This paper presents performance evaluations of a high-frequency (100 kHz) carrier switched-mode PWM power conversion amplifier system for precise high-speed current-tracking control of electromagnetic circuits. Its computer-aided analysis and some design considerations are described on the basis of state-space averaging analysis and the model matching method. The proposed power conditioning system technology is more acceptable for the current-regulated power supply of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines, which requires analog-oriented unique highly-regulated power electronic circuit systems for the generation of magnetic-gradient fields.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Fast and transparent recovery for continuous availability of cluster-based servers (2006)

Recently there has been renewed interest in building reliable servers that support continuous application operation. Besides maintaining system state consistent after a failure, one of the main challenges in achieving continuous operation is to provide fast reconfiguration. The complexity of the failure reconfiguration mechanisms employed and their overheads depend on the type of platform that is being used as a server and the types of applications that need to be supported. In this paper we focus on providing support for shared-memory applications running on clusters of commodity nodes and interconnects. Achieving continuous operation for shared memory applications on clusters presents two main challenges. (a) The fault tolerance mechanisms employed should be transparent to applications and should have low overhead during failure-free execution. (b) When failures occur, reconfiguration should occur with minimum application disruption without requiring the full recovery of the failed node.In this work we examine in detail the latter, i.e., (b), the failure reconfiguration path. We use a previously developed system [8] that achieves (a) by using dynamic replication of data to the memories of multiple nodes of the system during execution. We examine in detail how the runtime system can achieve minimum application interruption, when failures occur. We present the design and implementation of FineFRC (Fine-grained Failure Recon guration on Clusters), a runtime system for achieving continuous operation of shared memory applications on commodity clusters without requiring application instrumentation or human intervention. We present results using a working, 16-processor system that achieves sub-second failure reconfiguration times.
Isolation of oval cells from Long-Evans Cinnamon rats and their transformation into hepatocytes in vivo in the rat liver (1997)

Oval cells function as compensatory cells in severe liver injury and are thought to be equivalent to liver stem/progenitor cells. We isolated oval cells from the liver of Long-Evans Cinnamon (LEC) rats by isopyknic centrifugation in a Percoll gradient. The cells were gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP)-positive, alpha-fetoprotein-positive, and cytokeratin (CK) 18- and CK 19-positive, but albumin-negative in the cells. When oval cells were transplanted to the liver, they were transformed into hepatocytes. To evaluate albumin biosynthesis, we transplanted oval cells into the liver of Nagase analbuminemic and LEC double mutant rats. The albumin level in the serum of transplanted rats was increased and maintained for up to 10 weeks. These results indicated that the oval cells isolated from LEC rats can differentiate into hepatocytes in vivo. (Hepatology 1997 Feb;25(2):329-34)
Why Are B ions stable species in peptide spectra? (1995)

Protonated amino acids and derivatives RCH(NH2)C(+O)X · H(+) (X = OH, NH2, OCH3) do not form stable acylium ions on loss of HX, but rather the acylium ion eliminates CO to form the immonium ion RCH = NH 2 (+) . By contrast, protonated dipeptide derivatives H2NCH(R)C(+O)NHCH(R')C(+O)X · H(+) [X = OH, OCH3, NH2, NHCH(R″)COOH] form stable B2 ions by elimination of HX. These B2 ions fragment on the metastable ion time scale by elimination of CO with substantial kinetic energy release (T 1/2 = 0.3-0.5 eV). Similarly, protonated N-acetyl amino acid derivatives CH3C(+O)NHCH(R')C(+O)X · H(+) [X = OH, OCH3, NH2, NHCH(R″)COOH] form stable B ions by loss of HX. These B ions also fragment unimolecularly by loss of CO with T 1/2 values of ∼ 0.5 eV. These large kinetic energy releases indicate that a stable configuration of the B ions fragments by way of activation to a reacting configuration that is higher in energy than the products, and some of the fragmentation exothermicity of the final step is partitioned into kinetic energy of the separating fragments. We conclude that the stable configuration is a protonated oxazolone, which is formed by interaction of the developing charge (as HX is lost) with the N-terminus carbonyl group and that the reacting configuration is the acyclic acylium ion. This conclusion is supported by the similar fragmentation behavior of protonated 2-phenyl-5-oxazolone and the B ion derived by loss of H-Gly-OH from protonated C6H5C(+O)-Gly-Gly-OH. In addition, ab initio calculations on the simplest B ion, nominally HC(+O)NHCH2CO(+), show that the lowest energy structure is the protonated oxazolone. The acyclic acylium isomer is 1.49 eV higher in energy than the protonated oxazolone and 0.88 eV higher in energy than the fragmentation products, HC(+O)N(+)H = CH2 + CO, which is consistent with the kinetic energy releases measured.
Characterization by yeast artificial chromosome cloning of the linked apolipoprotein(a) and plasminogen genes and identification of the apolipoprotein(a) 5' flanking region. (1992)

The apoprotein(a) [apo(a)] gene encodes a protein component of the circulating lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. The apo(a) gene is highly homologous to the plasminogen gene. It encodes one of the most polymorphic human proteins, due to variability in the number of repetitions of structures called kringles. In addition, Lp(a) levels vary among individuals by more than two orders of magnitude, the high levels being highly correlated with predisposition to early atherosclerotic disease. To better understand the genetics and function of the apo(a) gene, we have cloned in yeast artificial chromosome vectors DNA fragments comprising the linked apo(a) and plasminogen genes and other members of the plasminogen family. By a combination of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and genome walking experiments, we have identified the 5' portion and flanking regions of the apo(a) gene.
Decomposition of electromagnetic fields into upgoing and downgoing components (2006)

Abstract This paper gives a unified treatment of electromagnetic (EM) field decomposition into upgoing and downgoing components for conductive and nonconductive media, where the electromagnetic data are measured on a plane in which the electric permittivity, magnetic permeability, and electrical conductivity are known constants with respect to space and time. Above and below the plane of measurement, the medium can be arbitrarily inhomogeneous and anisotropic. In particular, the proposed decomposition theory applies to marine EM, low-frequency data acquired for hydrocarbon mapping where the upgoing components of the recorded field guided and refracted from the reservoir, that are of interest for the interpretation. The direct-source field, the refracted airwave induced by the source, the reflected field from the sea surface, and mostmagnetotelluric noise traveling downward just below the seabed are field components that are considered to be noise in electromagnetic measurements. The viability and validity of the decomposition method is demonstrated using modeled and real marine EM data, also termed seabed logging (SBL) data. The synthetic data are simulated in a model that is fairly representative of the geologic area where the real SBL were collected. The results from the synthetic data study therefore are used to assist in the interpretation of the real data from an area with 320-m water depth above a known gas province offshore Norway. The effect of the airwave is seen clearly in measured data. After field decomposition just below the seabed, the upgoing component of the recorded electric field has almost linear phase, indicating that most of the effect of the airwave component has been removed.
Hybrid coding for Gaussian broadcast channels with Gaussian sources (2009)

This paper considers a degraded Gaussian broadcast channel over which Gaussian sources are to be communicated. When the sources are independent, this paper shows that hybrid coding achieves the optimal distortion region, the same as that of separate source and channel coding. It also shows that uncoded transmission is not optimal for this setting. For correlated sources, the paper shows that a hybrid coding strategy has a better distortion region than separate source-channel coding below a certain signal to noise ratio threshold. Thus, hybrid coding is a good choice for Gaussian broadcast channels with correlated Gaussian sources.
