Axisymmetric Motion of Radially Polarized Piezoelectric Cylinders Used in Ink Jet Printing (1983)

An analysis of the low frequency response of piezoelectric squeeze tubes used in drop-on-demand ink jet printing is carried out. The displacements at inner and outer boundaries are determined as a function of voltage and fluid pressure. The results are used to obtain fluid pressure per applied voltage as a function of inner and outer radius. Numerical computations are carried out for PZT-5H, and results are presented in graphical form which can be used to optimize design dimensions. The effect of finite electrode thickness is also studied.
Effect of the Coal Particle Size on Pyrolysis and Char Reactivity for Two Types of Coal and Demineralized Coal (2008)

A better understanding of the influence of particle size on pyrolysis and char reactivity is of crucial importance in optimizing the integrated process combining coal topping (coal fast pyrolysis) with char gasification. Different size fractions of two types of coal and demineralized coal were pyrolyzed in a spouted bed. The resulting chars were characterized by X-ray diffraction, and char reactivity was determined in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). Within the range of particle sizes investigated, an increase in particle size results in an increase of char yield, which may be caused by the secondary reactions of volatile matters inside the coal particles. No significant difference in crystallinity was observed for the chars from different size fractions of the parent coals, while more crystallinity was observed for the chars from demineralized coals, which suggests that minerals in the coal play a role in the reduction of char crystallinity during pyrolysis. Char reactivity for raw coals decreased with the increasing of the particle size. For the demineralized coal samples, the change in char reactivity with the increasing of the particle size was reduced. Both the secondary reactions of volatiles and mineral distribution are believed to cause the influence of coal particle size on char reactivity.

Image-Guided Human Reconstruction via Multi-Scale Graph Transformation Networks (2021)

3D human reconstruction from a single image is a challenging problem. Existing methods have difficulties to infer 3D clothed human models with consistent topologies for various poses. In this paper, we propose an efficient and effective method using a hierarchical graph transformation network. To deal with large deformations and avoid distorted geometries, rather than using Euclidean coordinates directly, 3D human shapes are represented by a vertex-based deformation representation that effectively encodes the deformation and copes well with large deformations. To infer a 3D human mesh consistent with the input real image, we also use a perspective projection layer to incorporate perceptual image features into the deformation representation. Our model is easy to train and fast to converge with short test time. Besides, we present the D<sup>2</sup>Human (Dynamic Detailed Human) dataset, including variously posed 3D human meshes with consistent topologies and rich geometry details, together with the captured color images and SMPL models, which is useful for training and evaluation of deep frameworks, particularly for graph neural networks. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves more plausible and complete 3D human reconstruction from a single image, compared with several state-of-the-art methods. The code and dataset are available for research purposes at http://cic.tju.edu.cn/faculty/likun/projects/MGTnet.
Reversal of the physiological effects of monocular deprivation in kittens: further evidence for a sensitive period (1974)

1. It was confirmed that suturing the lids of one eye (monocular deprivation), until only 5 weeks of age, leaves virtually every neurone in the kitten's visual cortex entirely dominated by the other eye. On the other hand, deprivation of both eyes causes no change in the normal ocular dominance of cortical neurones, most cells being clearly binocularly driven.2. Kittens were monocularly deprived until various ages, from 5 to 14 weeks, at which time reverse suturing was performed: the initially deprived right eye was opened and the left eye closed for a further 9 weeks before recording from the visual cortex.3. Reverse suturing at 5 weeks caused a complete switch in ocular dominance: every cell was dominated by the initially deprived right eye. Reverse suturing at 14 weeks, however, had almost no further effect on ocular dominance: most cells were still driven solely by the left eye. Animals reverse sutured at intermediate ages had cortical neurones strongly dominated by one eye or the other, and they were organized into clear columnar groups according to ocular dominance.4. Thus, between 5 weeks and 4 months of age, there is a period of declining sensitivity to both the effects of an initial period of monocular deprivation and the reversal of those effects by reverse suturing.5. The small proportion of binocular cells in reverse sutured kittens (which have never had simultaneous binocular vision) often differed considerably in their receptive field properties in the two eyes. In particular, if the cells were orientation selective in both eyes the two preferred orientations could differ by up to 70 degrees .6. The relative importance of innate and environmental contributions to the properties of cortical cells is discussed.

Semiconductor laser amplifier as optical switching gate (1993)

The properties of a semiconductor laser amplifier as optical switching gate are investigated. Particular attention is paid to gain, contrast ratio, and switching time of the device. These properties are studied experimentally and theoretically with respect to the injection current, optical input power, and cavity resonances. The experimental arrangements and the theoretical method are described. As an example of the various applications of semiconductor laser amplifier gates, packet switching experiments with self-routing, employing cascaded switching gates, are reported. In a theoretical analysis the restrictions that the properties of semiconductor laser amplifier gates impose on a larger switching system consisting of many such gates are investigated.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Case Study: Mixing Proppant Sizes To Control Pressure-Dependent Leakoff (2007)

Abstract One of the main factors affecting fracture treatment completion in the Cardium formation in North West Central Alberta is PDL. PDL is determined from minifrac analysis completed prior to the main treatment. PDL can be treated and controlled with a combination of increased fluid rates, additional 50/140 proppant (100 mesh) in the pad and increased gel loadings. Yet in certain areas even these precautions will not achieve successful placement of job design or effective fracture properties. Common practice is to design for 80 to 100 Tonnes of ceramic proppant into each of these reservoirs, with an additional 5 to 7 Tonnes of 50/140 proppant in the pad to control PDL. In most areas this works effectively for controlling the competing fracture leak-off during the treatment. In the Northwestern Alberta Cardium area this approach has not been as successful and has caused concern about total proppant placement. An alternative approach for controlling fluid leak-off during the treatment has been to mix in a small amount (usually 5% by weight) of 50/140 proppant with the ceramic proppant in the early stages of the treatments to control the fluid leak-off in these areas. Treatment design engineers recognize the fracture conductivity issues caused by mixing different mesh sizes. However, utilizing this approach has resulted in full job completion and this paper will discuss the specific treatment designs required to drastically limit fracture treatment screen-outs.

Explantation of endocapsular posterior chamber lens after spontaneous posterior dislocation (1996)

The management of spontaneous posterior dislocation of an intraocular lens (IOL) (11.0 mm in overall diameter) encapsulated within the remaining lens capsule is presented. The patient was a 55-year-old man who had had phacoemulsification following continuous curvilinear capsulotomy for monocular cataract 3 years earlier. The dislocated, encapsulated IOL was lifted up by hooking the fibrotic capsular opening with a bent disposable needle following vitrectomy and then explanted. A conventional posterior chamber lens with modified C-loops was inserted and sutured in the ciliary sulcus. This technique may be an alternative treatment for a posteriorly dislocated IOL. Histopathological examination clearly revealed that lens epithelial cell migration stopped at the planoconvex optic edge. This finding may be consistent with reports that the incidence of posterior capsule opacification with the planoconvex IOL is lower than with the biconvex IOL.
Highly reliable testing of ULSI memories with on-chip voltage-down converters (1993)

Two testing techniques for ultra-large-scale integrated (ULSI) memories containing on-chip voltage downconverters (VDCs) are described. The first in an on-chip VDC tuning technique that adjusts internal V/sub CC/ to compensate for the monitored characteristics of the process parameters during repair analysis testing. The second is an operating-voltage margin test, performed at various internal V/sub CC/ levels during the water sort test (WT) and the final shipping test (FT).< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Exploring texture ensembles by efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo-Toward a "trichromacy" theory of texture (2000)

Presents a mathematical definition of texture, the Julesz ensemble /spl Omega/(h), which is the set of all images (defined on Z/sup 2/) that share identical statistics h. Then texture modeling is posed as an inverse problem: Given a set of images sampled from an unknown /spl Omega/(h/sub */), we search for the statistics h/sub */ which define the ensemble. A /spl Omega/(h) has an associated probability distribution q(I; h), which is uniform over the images in /spl Omega/(h) and has zero probability outside. The authors previously (1999) showed q(I; h) to be the limit distribution of the FRAME (filter, random field, and minimax entropy) model, as the image lattice /spl Lambda//spl rarr/Z/sup 2/. This conclusion establishes the intrinsic link between the scientific definition of texture on Z/sup 2/ and the mathematical models of texture on finite lattices. It brings two advantages: the practice of texture image synthesis by matching statistics is put on a mathematical foundation; and we need not learn the expensive FRAME model in feature pursuit, model selection and texture synthesis. An efficient Markov chain Monte Carte algorithm is proposed for sampling Julesz ensembles. It generates random texture images by moving along the directions of filter coefficients and, thus, extends the traditional single site Gibbs sampler. We compare four popular statistical measures in the literature, in terms of their descriptive abilities. Our experiments suggest that a small number of bins in marginal histograms are sufficient for capturing a variety of texture patterns.
Bioinformatics Protocols in Glycomics and Glycoproteomics (2014)

Glycomics aims to identify the whole set of functional glycans of glycoconjugates (attached to proteins or lipids) in biological samples. Glycoproteomics aims to characterize the complete structure of all glycoproteins in biological samples, including the glycosylation sites of proteins and the various glycan structures attached to each of these sites. Mass spectrometry (MS) and microarray are high-throughput technologies that are commonly used in glycomics and glycoproteomics, which often result in the generation of large experimental datasets. Bioinformatics approaches play an essential role in automated analysis and interpretation of such data. This unit describes and discusses the computational tools currently available for these analyses, and their glycomics and glycoproteomics applications.
An intelligent Aspect-Oriented framework for web application (2010)

Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) has been proposed as a technique for improving separation of concerns in software and becomes a popular research topic. The AOP language bindings with implementation framework are generally available which allow you to directly use AOP with several programming languages such as Ruby, Squeak, Smalltalk, C, C++, Java and so on. However, some of popular web application technologies using scriptlet language are not ready for AOP, such as Java Serve Page (JSP), Personal Home Page (PHP), Active Server Page(ASP), etc. What's more, the blend of concern is a troublesome question when configure with AOP system. In order to improve these difficulties, we propose a more intelligent AOP framework for scriptlet web language that provides (1) two-phase weaving feature; (2) Jboss AOP based cooperation; (3) xml metadata for intelligent aspect mediation. Since our aspect-oriented programming model provides the framework for mediating crosscutting concerns in the web application, the outcome will demonstrate a new intelligent AOP framework for the web application.
Computing-in-Memory with SRAM and RRAM for Binary Neural Networks (2018)

Recent advances in deep learning have shown that Binary Neural Network (BNN) is able to provide a satisfying accuracy on various image datasets with a significant reduction in computation and memory cost. With both weights and activations binarized to +1 or -1 in BNNs, the high-precision multiply-and-accumulate (MAC) operations can be replaced by XNOR and bit-counting operations. In this work, we present two computing-in-memory (CIM) architectures with parallelized weighted-sum operation for accelerating the inference of BNN: 1) parallel XNOR-SRAM, where a customized 8T-SRAM cell is used as a synapse; 2) parallel XNOR-RRAM, where a customized bit-cell consisting of 2T2R cells is used as a synapse. For large-scale weight matrices in neural networks, the array partition is necessary, where multi-level sense amplifiers (MLSAs) are employed as the intermediate interface for accumulating partial weighted sums. We explore various design options with different sub-array sizes and sensing bit-levels. Simulation results with 65nm CMOS PDK and RRAM models show that the system with 128×128 sub-array size and 3-bit MLSA can achieve 87.46% for an inspired VGG-like network on CIFAR-10 dataset, showing less than 1% degradation compared to the ideal software accuracy. The estimated energy-efficiency of XNOR-SRAM and XNOR-RRAM shows <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">~</sub> 30× improvement compared to the corresponding conventional SRAM and RRAM architectures with sequential row-by-row read-out.
Exploring alcohol's effects on liver function. (1997)

A large proportion of heavy drinkers develop serious alcoholic liver disease. Susceptibility to alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis appears to be influenced by heredity, gender, diet, and co-occurring liver illness. Most alcoholic liver damage is attributed to alcohol metabolism. Liver injury may be caused by direct toxicity of metabolic by-products of alcohol as well as by inflammation induced by these by-products. Exposure of liver cells to bacterial toxins may contribute to liver disease. Escalating liver injury can lead to fibrosis and, ultimately, to cirrhosis. Increased understanding of the mechanisms of liver injury has led to innovative treatments for alcoholic liver disease, including the use of corticosteroids, antioxidants, antibiotics, and certain polyunsaturated fats.

A novel nano-immunoassay system capable of absolute protein measurements from 400 tumor-derived stem cells (2007)

C92 The traditional western blot has been a core technique of protein research for over 25 years. Although popular due to its combination of separation and antibody specificity, the technique is slow, labor intensive, semi-quantitative, and poorly suited for scarce samples. Capillary electrophoresis has conquered similar limitations with genomic analysis. A novel technique has been developed which allows rapid (60 sec) immobilization of isoelectrically focused proteins to a capillary wall. Tagged antibodies are then flowed through the capillary allowing chemiluminescent detection of captured proteins. Experiments show that the useful linear range of concentration of protein capture exceeds six orders of magnitude. A series of experiments were designed to measure tumor stem cell proteins from a transitional cell carcinoma (TCC+). Cells were sorted from a patient tumor and lysed for analysis. From as few as 400 cells we were able to detect a variety of proteins. Here we report b-catenin protein concentrations of 192 ng/mg of total protein in the tumor stem cells, which was undetectable in ‘non-stem’ tumor cells. Comparisons of protein levels and the degree of phosphorylation are made between these samples, other tumor cell lines and hematopoetic stem cells for a variety of proteins including AKT, ERK, BCL2, MYC and JNK.
High Frequency Capacitance‐Voltage Characteristics of Thermally Grown SiO2 Films on β ‐ SiC (1990)

Silicon dioxide films grown under dry and wet oxidation environment on films have been studied. The films had been heteroepitaxially grown on both on‐axis and 2° off‐axis (001) Si substrates. Capacitance‐voltage and conductance‐voltage characteristics of metal‐oxide‐semiconductor structures were measured in a frequency range of 10 kHz to 1 MHz. From these measurements the interface trap density and the effective fixed oxide charge density were observed to be generally lower for off‐axis samples.
Identification and sequence analysis of a new member of the mouse HSP70 gene family and characterization of its unique cellular and developmental pattern of expression in the male germ line. (1988)

A unique member of the mouse HSP70 gene family has been isolated and characterized with respect to its DNA sequence organization and expression. The gene contains extensive similarity to a heat shock-inducible HSP70 gene within the coding region but diverges in both 3' and 5' nontranslated regions. The gene does not yield transcripts in response to heat shock in mouse L cells. Rather, the gene appears to be activated uniquely in the male germ line. Analysis of RNA from different developmental stages and from enriched populations of spermatogenic cells revealed that this gene is expressed during the prophase stage of meiosis. A transcript different in size from the major heat-inducible mouse transcripts is most abundant in meiotic prophase spermatocytes and decreases in abundance in postmeiotic stages of spermatogenesis. This pattern of expression is distinct from that observed for another member of this gene family, which was previously shown to be expressed abundantly in postmeiotic germ cells. These observations suggest that specific HSP70 gene family members play distinct roles in the differentiation of the germ cell lineage in mammals.
