Integrated optical waveguides in polyimide for wafer scale integration (1988)

Optical interconnections promise several key advantages over their electrical counterparts such as large bandwidth and reduced propagation delay. The limitations of electrical interconnections become even more significant for wafer scale integration (WSI), and wafer scale hybrid packaging (WSHP) because of the length of wafer scale interconnections. The authors investigate the possibility of using optically transparent organic dielectrics such as certain polyimides as waveguide materials for integrated optical waveguides, and the use of a focused ion beam (FIB) for micromachining optical structures such as mirrors.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

[Protective effect of allopurinol in the exposure to noise pulses]. (1999)

Free oxygen radicals cause particularly severe tissues and organ damage. They appear to play an important role in the cochlea, mediating noise-exposure damage. In the present study 16 guinea pigs were implanted with permanent electrodes to record cochlear action potential. Eight animals were exposed to a 2-3 kHz, 125 dB SPL noise pulse, at a rate of 4 stimulations per second for 1.8 hours. Prior to noise exposure four out of eight animals were treated with a known dose of allopurinol. The remaining eight animals were used as controls. Endolymphatic malondialdehyde concentration was used as indicator of the lipid peroxidization processes exerted by the free radicals. No significant difference was found between the variations in hearing threshold and malondialdehyde concentration in the animals treated with allopurinol and then exposed to noise vs. the control group. The electophysiological and biochemical results have, therefore, demonstrated that preventative administration of allopurinol can provide valid protection vs. noise impulse damage.
Development of a flow method for susceptibility testing of oral biofilms <i>in vitro</i> (1995)

Bacteria in biofilms are known to be more resistant than bacteria in batch cultures to antimicrobial agents. The purpose of the present study was to develop a flow method for formation of oral biofilms permitting susceptibility testing of plaque bacteria. A brain heart infusion (BHI) Streptococcus sanguis 804 culture was pumped through a modified Robbins Device (MRD) with 25 exchangeable silicone disks at 40 ml/h. After 24-48 h disks were removed and biofilm cells dispersed by vortex mixing and low-output ultrasonication. Colony forming units (cfu)/cm2 were determined after aerobic incubation on blood agar plates. Optimal biofilm formation was found after growth for 48 h at 37 degrees C in BHI + 1% sucrose, using saliva-coated silicone disks in inverted MRDs, yielding on average 4.4 x 10(5) cfu/cm2. Similar results were obtained for S. sanguis ATCC 10556 and five clinical isolates. Testing the susceptibility of S. sanguis to chlorhexidine gluconate showed increased resistance of biofilms compared to batch culture. Thus an appropriate biofilm model for susceptibility testing of oral microorganisms has been established.
End-Task Oriented Textual Entailment via Deep Explorations of Inter-Sentence Interactions (2018)

This work deals with SciTail, a natural entailment challenge derived from a multi-choice question answering problem. The premises and hypotheses in SciTail were generated with no awareness of each other, and did not specifically aim at the entailment task. This makes it more challenging than other entailment data sets and more directly useful to the end-task -- question answering. We propose DEISTE (deep explorations of inter-sentence interactions for textual entailment) for this entailment task. Given word-to-word interactions between the premise-hypothesis pair ($P$, $H$), DEISTE consists of: (i) a parameter-dynamic convolution to make important words in $P$ and $H$ play a dominant role in learnt representations; and (ii) a position-aware attentive convolution to encode the representation and position information of the aligned word pairs. Experiments show that DEISTE gets $\approx$5\% improvement over prior state of the art and that the pretrained DEISTE on SciTail generalizes well on RTE-5.

Binding of amino acid side chains to preformed cavities: Interaction of serine proteinases with turkey ovomucoid third domains with coded and noncoded P<sub>1</sub> residues (1993)

In the association of serine proteinases with their cognate substrates and inhibitors an important interaction is the fitting of the P1 side chain of the substrate or inhibitor into a preformed cavity of the enzyme called the S1 pocket. In turkey ovomucoid third domain, which is a canonical protein proteinase inhibitor, the P1 residue is Leu18. Here we report the values of equilibrium constants, Ka, for turkey ovomucoid third domain and 13 additional Leu18X variants with six serine proteinases: bovine alpha chymotrypsin A, porcine pancreatic elastase, subtilisin Carlsberg, Streptomyces griseus proteinases A and B, and human leukocyte elastase. Eight of the Xs are coded amino acids: Ala, Ser, Val, Met, Gln, Glu, Lys, and Phe, and five are noncoded: Abu, Ape, Ahx, Ahp, and Hse. They were chosen to simplify the interamino acid comparisons. In the homologous series of straight-chain side chains Ala, Abu, Ape, Ahx, Ahp, free energy of binding decreases monotonically with the side-chain length for chymotrypsin with large binding pocket, but even for this enzyme shows curvature. For the two S. griseus enzymes a minimum appears to be reached at Ahp. A minimum is clearly evident for the two elastases, where increasing the side-chain length from Ahx to Ahp greatly weakens binding, but much more so for the apparently more rigid pancreatic enzyme than for the more flexible leukocyte enzyme. beta-Branching (Ape/Val) is very deleterious for five of the six enzymes; it is only slightly deleterious for the more flexible human leukocyte elastase. The effect of gamma-branching (Ahx/Leu), of introduction of heteroatoms (Abu/Ser), (Ape/Hse), and (Ahx/Met), and of introduction of charge (Gln/Glu) and (Ahp/Lys) are tabulated and discussed. An important component of the free energy of interaction is the distortion of the binding pocket by bulky or branched side chains. Most of the variants studied were obtained by enzymatic semisynthesis. X18 variants of the 6-18 peptide GlyNH2 were synthesized and combined with natural reduced peptide 19-56. Disulfide bridges were formed. The GlyNH2 was removed and the reactive-site peptide bond X18-Glu19 was synthesized by complex formation with proteinase K. The resultant complexes were dissociated by sudden pH drop. This kinetically controlled dissociation afforded virgin, reactive-site-intact inhibitor variants.
Symmetrical stator flux orbits for direct flux and torque controlled drives (2002)

In this paper a solution is given for the problem of asymmetrical flux orbits, inherent to the field acceleration method (FAM) which limits the stator flux amplitude between two levels in an induction motor. It is shown that the allowable stator flux band /spl Delta//spl Psi/ has a number of optimal values which generate the smallest radial ripple (reactive power ripple) resulting in polygons with 6,18,30,42...etc. sides. The problem of asymmetrical flux orbits originates in the uncertain 'position' of the flux vector /spl Psi//spl I.oarr/ at the start of a segment of 60/spl deg/. The proposed solution consists of a radial-band controller that measures the flux position 6 times per cycle and adapts the band for /spl Delta//spl Psi/ accordingly. Within 2 cycles the orbit shape is stable and symmetrical at all possible frequencies and accelerations. Such an orbit eliminates the FAM problem of inter- and even-current harmonics, which can cause low frequency torque and speed changes, especially for the coarse orbits of sub-kHz high power VSIs. Experimental results of a DSP controlled small 2.2 kW setup are given.
Interaction of Silica with Functionalized SBR (1980)

Abstract In the absence of chemical interaction between precipitated silica and styrene-butadiene rubber, reticulation of silica particles occurs in the unvulcanized mixture and produces a stiffening effect. This process occurs gradually at room temperature and very rapidly at curing temperatures. The effect can be quantified conveniently by measuring the Young's modulus of raw compounds. SBR functionalized with a small concentration of hydroxyl groups, introduced by terpolymerization, can interact with precipitated silica particles by esterification. This reaction can be accelerated by catalysts. When carried out under conditions of combined heat and shear, this interaction prevents silica reticulation and produces vulcanizates with greatly altered and improved elastic properties. The present paper describes and illustrates these effects with reference to simplified compound recipes.

Improving Users' Isolation in IaaS: Virtual Machine Placement with Security Constraints (2014)

Nowadays, virtualization is used as the sole mechanism to isolate different users on Cloud platforms. In this paper, we show that, due to improper virtualization of micro-architectural components, data leak and modification can occur on public Clouds. Furthermore, using the same vector, it is possible to induce performance interferences, i.e. noisy neighbors. Using this approach, a VM can steal resources from, and slow down, concurrent VMs. To counter this, we propose placement heuristics that take into account isolation requirements, thus allowing a user to specify the level of isolation he accepts, and with whom. We modify 3 classical heuristics to take into account these requirements. In addition, we propose 4 new heuristics that take into account the hierarchy of Cloud platforms and isolation requirements. Finally, we evaluate these heuristics and compare them with the modified classical ones. We show that our heuristics perform at least as well as the classical ones, while scaling better and being faster by a few orders of magnitude.
Adducin Polymorphism (2005)

Adducin is a heterodymeric cytoskeleton protein, the 3 subunits of which are encoded by genes (ADD1, ADD2, ADD3) mapping to 3 different chromosomes. A long series of parallel studies in the Milan hypertensive rat strain model of hypertension and humans indicated that an altered adducin function may cause hypertension through an enhanced constitutive tubular sodium reabsorption. Six human linkage studies showed positive results when a DNA marker mapping to 30 kb from the ADD1 locus or single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of 1 of the 3 adducin genes were considered either alone or in combination with each other or angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) D allele or salt intake. When DNA markers mapping at much larger distance from the ADD1 locus were used, negative results were found by 4 studies. Positive results were also obtained in 18 of 20 association studies that, in addition to blood pressure, investigated variables reflecting body sodium or the renin-angiotensin system. Mixed results regarded case-control studies or studies in predominantly normotensive populations that did not consider the above-mentioned variables. Four of 5 studies showed a selective beneficial effect of diuretics in carriers of the mutated ADD1. Twelve of 16 studies found that ADD1 polymorphism alone or in combination with that of ACE positively associates with stroke or coronary heart disease or renal or vascular dysfunctions. In conclusion, when context is taken into account, the impact of adducin in hypertension and its related disorders is clear.
Silicon-nitride waveguides for on-chip Raman spectroscopy (2014)

The evanescent tail of the guided modes can efficiently excite Raman active molecules located in the cladding of a waveguide. Similarly, a significant fraction of the total emitted Stokes power is evanescently coupled to the same mode. Further, the enhancement effects inherent to the waveguide, alongside with the long interaction length, lead to an increased light-matter interaction, resulting in a higher sensitivity as required by spectroscopic applications, especially in the context of Raman spectroscopy. We calculate the spontaneous Raman scattering efficiency as a function of silicon-nitride strip waveguide dimensions and show that under typical conditions, the overall efficiency is approximately two orders of magnitude higher than in confocal configuration in the free space. We also report the experimental demonstration of the use of silicon-nitride based photonic waveguides in a lab-on-a-chip context for Raman spectroscopy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of Raman spectroscopy using photonic waveguides.
Mass Rearing Methods for Galerucella calmariensis and G. pusilla (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), Biological Control Agents of Lythrum salicaria(Lythraceae) (1999)

Purple loosestrife, Lythrum salicaria L., an invasive Eurasian perennial, is degrading wetlands across temperate North America. Because conventional control methods have proven ineffective, current emphasis is on the introduction and release of host-specific biological control agents. To increase the availability of control agents for distribution and thus the potential for faster control, mass rearing techniques for 2 leaf beetles, Galerucella calmariensis L. and G. pusilla Duftschmidt, were developed under greenhouse and field conditions. To evaluate the success of various rearing techniques on the number of beetles produced and the effect of these methods on offspring quality, female fecundity, larval development, and adult survival were monitored. Survival of adults maintained at 4 degrees C was approximately 60% and was independent of the type of material used for storage, duration of overwintering, and number of beetles per container. Survival rates increased with increasing numbers of dry stems offered as an overwintering substrate. Females in smaller cages had significantly higher oviposition rates, and with an increase in the number of beetles per cage, female fecundity doubled. Continuous rearing in the greenhouse reduced female fecundity. Allowing beetles to overwinter significantly improved fecundity and rearing efficiency, independent of whether beetles overwintered in a controlled environment or in the field. Field rearings consistently produced 2-5 times more offspring with higher survival than greenhouse rearings.
An asymmetric sidewall process for high performance LDD MOSFET's (1994)

An asymmetric LDD sidewall spacer technology is presented which gives a high drivability of LDD MOSFET without sacrificing hot carrier immunity. The asymmetric spacer is fabricated by using a selective oxide deposition technique. The process implemented in a CMOS fabrication sequence requires no additional masking step. The fact that no reliability problems are introduced in the transistor characteristics by the selective oxide deposition process is also examined.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
<title>External Attachment of Titanium Sheathed Thermocouples to Zirconium Nuclear Fuel Rods For The Loss-Of-Fluid-Test (LOFT) Reactor</title> (1980)

The Exxon Nuclear Company, Inc. acting as a Subcontractor to EG&G Idaho Inc.3 Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, Idaho Falls, Idaho, has developed a welding process to attach titanium sheathed thermocouples to the outside of the zircaloy clad fuel rods. The fuel rods and thermocouples are used to test simulated loss-of-coolant-accident (LOCA) conditions in a pressurized water reactor (LOFT Reactor, Idaho National Laboratory). The design goals were to (1) reliably attach thermocouples to the zircaloy fuel rods, (2) achieve or exceed a life expectancy of 6,000 hours of reactor operation in a borated water environment of 316°C at 2260 psi, (3) provide and sustain repeatable physical and metallurgical properties in the instrumented rods subjected to transient temperatures up to 1538°C with blowdown, shock, loading, and fast quench. A laser beam was selected as the optimum welding process because of the extremely high energy input per unit volume that can be achieved allowing local fusion of a small area irrespective of the difference in material thickness to be joined. A commercial pulsed laser and energy control system was installed along with specialized welding fixtures. Laser room facility requirements and tolerances were established. Performance qualifications and detailed welding procedures were also developed. Product performance tests were conducted to assure that engineering design requirements could be met on a production basis. Irradiation tests showed no degradation of thermocouples or weld structure. Fast thermal cycle and heater rod blowdown reflood tests were made to subject the weldments to high temperatures, high pressure steam, and fast water quench cycles. From the behavior of these tests, it was concluded that the attachment welds would survive a series of reactor safety tests.
