Signifying Process in Fashion Magazine Advertisements -Centering on Advertisements Expressing Eroticism- (2001)

The object of this study is to reach a semiotics access in a specialized magazine advertisement, by emphasizing the advertisement, which uses eroticism. The main components of eroticism are voyeurism, narcissism, fetishism, masochism, and sadism. From the results of analyzing their impact on fashion magazine advertisements, which is limited in erotic expression, `the women`s gender role ideology` is mainstream. Especially, this is joined with a `patriarch ideology` and the `women`s role ideology` on the view of feminism. It can be expressed erotic with `traditional women`s roles`, `rebelling against tradition`, and a `leading women role on sexuality`.
Direct Synthesis of Plasmenylcholine from Allyl-Substituted Glycerols (2003)

We report a new method for the facile preparation of plasmenylcholine via reaction of lithioalkoxy allyl intermediates with 1-iodoalkanes as the key step in the stereoselective formation of 1'-(Z)-alkenyl glyceryl ethers. The allyl anion intermediate is prepared by treating mono- or disiloxy-protected 1-allylglycerol precursors with s-BuLi at -65 to -80 degrees C. Subsequent addition of 1-iodoalkane solutions at low temperature gives moderate yields of gamma-coupled, Z-vinyl ethers as the major product and alpha-coupled product as the minor component. Several different preparative strategies for the total synthesis of plasmalogens are enabled by this simple transformation.
Monitoring Surface Thermal Transitions of ABA Triblock Copolymers with Crystalline Segments Using Phase Contrast Tapping Mode Atomic Force Microscopy (2005)

Variable-temperature tapping mode atomic force microscopy was used to follow thermal transitions in nanoscale phase separated triblock copolymers containing partially crystalline poly(octadecyl methacrylate) or poly(docosyl methacrylate) and glassy (poly(tert-butyl acrylate)) segments. Melting/crystallization and devitrification/vitrification transitions in phase separated domains were followed with the aid of "phase shift thermograms" constructed from cantilever phase shift maps acquired at different temperatures. This type of analysis turned out to be particularly useful in following melting/crystallization and devitrification/vitrification transitions occurring in the same temperature range and thus difficult or impossible to resolve using differential scanning calorimetry.
Effects of Foliar Applications of Carbohydrates on the Yield of Cotton (<i>Gossypium hirsutum</i>) Lint (1997)

Various plant growth hormones and bioregulators have been reported to increase the yield of cotton Gossypium hirsutum L. lint when applied foliarly in field tests. However, while positive effects with these compounds were often observed in individual years by us, multiyear results were not significant. Initial results with a commercial formulation, Foliar Triggrr, FT (Westbridge Agricultural Products, San Diego, CA), in which the stated active ingredient was cytokinin, led us to investigate the composition. Over a several year period (1989−1995), application of a succession of sugar-containing fractions to the cotton plants gave consistent small increases but not statistically significant lint yield increases. The composition of the active carbohydrate fraction upon acid hydrolysis was a mixture of mainly xylose, mannose, galactose, and glucose. Equal molar mixtures of sugars (man, gal, glc, suc) and ι-, κ-, and λ-carrageenans (linear sulfated polysaccharides) gave small consistent increases. The commercial application of this lead with carbohydrates may be in the utilization of an economical sugar-processing byproduct.

Chemical Modification of Kanamycin. III. Syntheses of 6-Amino-6-deoxy-2-manno-kanamycin and 6-Hydrazino-6-deoxy-2-manno-kanamycin. (1967)

Syntheses of the title compounds starting from 2, 6-di-O-p-tolylsulfonyl-tetra-N-acetyl-kanamycin via 6-azido-and 6-hydrazino-2, 3-oxazolinum intermediates. Terminal amination and configurational inversion at C2 of the 3-amino-glucose moiety were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, molecular rotations and hydrolysis data. The structures of two diamino-derivatives of tetra-N-acetyl-kanamycin obtained as minor products were discussed.

A Demonstration of FaceDisplay: Asymetric Multi-User Interaction for Mobile VR (2018)

Mobile VR HMDs enable users to experience virtual reality content in a variety of nomadic scenarios, excluding all the people in the surrounding (Non-HMD Users) and reducing them to be sole bystanders. This leads to a scenario where the HMD User experiences a sense of isolation and the Non-HMD Users a sense of exclusion. To battle these phenomena we present FaceDisplay, a modified VR HMD consisting of three touch sensitive displays and a depth camera attached to its back. This allows Non-HMD User to see inside the immersed users virtual world and enable them to interact via touch and gestures. We built a VR HMD prototype consisting of three additional screens and present interaction techniques and an example application that leverage the FaceDisplay design space.
Review of Rampal et al. (2018), https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2018-290 (2019)

The manuscript applies a scaling and multi-fractal analysis to sea-ice deformation fields simulated with neXtSIM and derived from RGPS satellite observations. It shows that the spatial and temporal scaling of the observed sea-ice deformation is well reproduced by the model. The paper also explores the multi-fractality and spatio-temporal coupling of the scaling, but whether these behaviors are significant is debatable considering the very large error bars on the values compared.
Efficient photochemical reduction of CO<sub>2</sub>to CO by visible light irradiation of systems containing Re(bipy)(CO)<sub>3</sub>X or Ru(bipy)<sub>3</sub><sup>2+</sup>–Co<sup>2+</sup>combinations as homogeneous catalysts (1983)

Efficient photogeneration of either (CO + H2) simultaneously, or CO selectively, occurs on visible light irradiation of CO2 solutions in (HOCH2CH2)3N–dimethylformamide containing, respectively, Ru(bipy)32+–Co2+ combinations or the single component Re(bipy)(CO)3X (X = Cl, Br) as homogeneous catalysts.
Diffusion Barrier Properties of Atomic Layer Deposited Ultrathin Ta[sub 2]O[sub 5] and TiO[sub 2] Films (2006)

Diffusion barrier properties of ultrathin and films deposited by the atomic layer deposition (ALD) method were investigated. The oxide films were deposited using well-defined deposition processes with metal alkoxides and water as precursors. Tantalum oxide films were deposited from tantalum pentaethoxide and water and titanium dioxide films from titanium tetramethoxide and water, both at 240°C. The films examined in the diffusion barrier tests were in the thickness range of 1 - 4 nm. The breakdown temperatures of the annealed structures were determined from the increase in the sheet resistance, X-ray diffraction data, and etch-pit test results. From the studied barrier films, the 3-nm-thick titanium dioxide film was found to possess the best resistance to copper diffusion as the first etch pits were observed only after the annealing at 650°C.
Understanding Family Contexts of Adolescent Coping (1991)

Many researchers, including John Hill, have studied parental influences on adolescent development. This sty investigated one aspect of parental influence, ego development, and its relation to adolescent coping. Two different groups of early adolescents were studied, one group from a public high school and the other current inpatients at a psychiatric hospital. This study found that when independently assessed, parental ego development was related to numerous adolescent coping strategies. Findings were stronger for maternal ego development; and stronger still for maternal ego development within the high school sample. Possible explanations for these new findings about the interplay between family context and an important aspect of adolescent functioning are discussed, together with planned future longitudinal investigations that may shed more light on these results.
The Altitudinal Gradients of Air Temperature in Southern Norway (1980)

Following from an earlier paper on the altitudinal gradients of temperature in the British Isles (Harding, 1978) a statistical study is made of the more extensive network of upland observations from southern Norway. The effects of altitude are found to be similar in the two regions: the mean values of the altitudinal gradients are the same and characteristic maximum in the spring is observable and is found to be more pronounced in the eastern half of the country. The larger number of high level stations in Norway allows a more complete description of the variability about the mean gradient, which shows a very significant seasonal variation.
Epidemiologic Differences between Native-Born and Foreign-Born Black People Diagnosed with HIV Infection in 33 U.S. States, 2001–2007 (2010)

The epidemiology of HIV infection differs for foreign-born black individuals compared with their native-born counterparts in the U.S. These data can be used to develop culturally appropriate and relevant HIV-prevention interventions.
A Vision of Swarmlets (2015)

Swarmlets are applications and services that leverage networked sensors and actuators with cloud services and mobile devices. This article offers a way to construct swarmlets by composing "accessors,"' which are wrappers for sensors, actuators, and services, that export an actor interface. Actor semantics provides ways to compose accessors with disciplined and understandable concurrency models, while hiding from the swarmlet the details of the mechanisms by which the accessor provides sensor data, controls an actuator, or accesses a service. This architecture can leverage the enormous variety of mechanisms that have emerged for such interactions, including HTTP, Websockets, CoAP, and MQTT. Recognizing that these standards have emerged because of huge variability of requirements for bandwidth, latency, and security, accessors embrace heterogeneity instead of attempting to homogenize.
Live Transference of Surgical Subspecialty Skills Using Telerobotic Proctoring to Remote General Surgeons (2010)

This study supports the use of surgical teleproctoring in guiding remote general surgeons by a surgical subspecialist in the care of a wounded patient in need of an emergency subspecialty operation.
Silica Nanoparticles as Supports for Regenerable CO<sub>2</sub>Sorbents (2012)

This paper describes the capture of CO2 by polyethylenimine (PEI) physically adsorbed on the surface of silica nanoparticles. The resulting material proved to be not only regenerable but also having the right qualities needed for a practical utilization, including absorption not only from high concentration streams like flue gases and natural gas wells but also from the air itself. Polyethyleneglycol (PEG) was used as a coadditive. The effect on CO2 capture of temperature, supports, and concentrations of polyethylenimine and polyethyleneglycol was evaluated. Based on the results, the PEI and PEG concentrations were optimized to obtain a material with optimal CO2 absorption characteristics. The obtained material demonstrated the practical possibility to capture CO2 using an inexpensive, easy-to-prepare, and regenerable absorbent.
Differential Fault Analysis on Block Cipher Piccolo-80 (2012)

64-비트 블록 암호 Piccolo-80은 무선 센서 네트워크 환경과 같이 제한된 환경에 적합하도록 설계된 경량 블록 암호이다. 본 논문에서는 Piccolo-80에 대한 차분 오류 공격을 제안한다. 랜덤 바이트 오류 주입 가정에 기반을 둔 이 공격은 평균 6개의 랜덤 바이트 오류와 <TEX>$2^{24}$</TEX>의 전수조사를 이용하여, Piccolo-80의 비밀키를 복구한다. 이는 일반적인 PC에서 수 초 내에 가능함을 의미한다. 본 논문의 공격 결과는 Piccolo-80에 대한 첫 번째 부채널 분석 결과이다.

Infra-red Spectroscopy of Brain Tissue. A Lipid Fraction in Normal and Irradiated Adult and Fetal Rats. (1952)

1. Frozen and dried sections of brain tissue, brain extracts, and pure compounds related to lipid metabolism are studied by infrared spectroscopy. 2. The characteristic infrared absorption bands are tentatively assigned to certain lipid structures. An amide-free lipid fraction is studied In adult and developing brain. 4. Adult and developing brain tissues show different infrared spectra. These differences are in part caused by different content of amide-free lipids, 5. X-ray irradiation decreases the amide-free lipid fraction in the adult and increases that fraction in developing brain.
Nonblocking property of reverse banyan networks (1992)

The authors present a new nonblocking property of the reverse banyan network under a particular input packet pattern at the input ports. The reverse banyan network is the mirror image of the banyan network. If the input packets of the N*N reverse banyan network have consecutive output address as modulo N, then the reverse banyan network is nonblocking. The routing of packets in the reverse banyan network is described, and the nonblocking property of the reverse banyan network is proved. A possible application of this property in the switching network is discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Accuracy of x-ray image-based 3D localization from two C-arm views: a comparison between an ideal system and a real device (2009)

arm X-ray imaging devices are commonly used for minimally invasive cardiovascular or other interventional procedures. Calibrated state-of-the-art systems can, however, not only be used for 2D imaging but also for three-dimensional reconstruction either using tomographic techniques or even stereotactic approaches. To evaluate the accuracy of X-ray object localization from two views, a simulation study assuming an ideal imaging geometry was carried out first. This was backed up with a phantom experiment involving a real C-arm angiography system. Both studies were based on a phantom comprising five point objects. These point objects were projected onto a flat-panel detector under different C-arm view positions. The resulting 2D positions were perturbed by adding Gaussian noise to simulate 2D point localization errors. In the next step, 3D point positions were triangulated from two views. A 3D error was computed by taking differences between the reconstructed 3D positions using the perturbed 2D positions and the initial 3D positions of the five points. This experiment was repeated for various C-arm angulations involving angular differences ranging from 15° to 165°. The smallest 3D reconstruction error was achieved, as expected, by views that were 90° degrees apart. In this case, the simulation study yielded a 3D error of 0.82 mm ± 0.24 mm (mean ± standard deviation) for 2D noise with a standard deviation of 1.232 mm (4 detector pixels). The experimental result for this view configuration obtained on an AXIOM Artis C-arm (Siemens AG, Healthcare Sector, Forchheim, Germany) system was 0.98 mm ± 0.29 mm, respectively. These results show that state-of-the-art C-arm systems can localize instruments with millimeter accuracy, and that they can accomplish this almost as well as an idealized theoretical counterpart. High stereotactic localization accuracy, good patient access, and CT-like 3D imaging capabilities render state-of-the-art C-arm systems ideal devices for X-ray based minimally invasive procedures.
Protective effect of orally administered immunoglobulins against experimental calf diarrhea. (1986)

Gamma-globulin fraction was obtained from the blood serum of a steer and colostrum wheys of cows vaccinated against bovine rotavirus (BRV) and bovine coronavirus (BCV), and emulsified with vegetative oil and other ingredients to reconstitute artificial colostrum (AC). The efficacy of AC was studied for protection of colostrum-deprived calves against experimental exposure to BRV and BCV at 22 or 25 hr of age. Calves Nos. 1 and 2 were orally challenged with the cell cultures of BRV and BCV, and Nos. 3, 4 and 5 with BCV; all the inocula were in combination with Escherichia coli K99(+) Ent(+). Calves Nos. 1 and 3, fed no AC, developed severe diarrhea. On the contrary, No. 2, fed AC several times before and after the challenge, and No. 5, once fed AC within 30 min after the challenge, developed no diarrhea. No. 4, once fed AC 4 hr after the challenge, showed only transient diearrhea. The severity and prevention of diarrhea related generally with immunoglobulin levels and antiviral antibody titers, derived from the administered AC, in the serum of the animals at about 100 hr of age. The results obtained indicated that AC has protective effects in calves against the exposure with BRV and/or BCV.

Cytokine-induced respiratory burst of human neutrophils: dependence on extracellular matrix proteins and CD11/CD18 integrins. (1989)

Human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) released large quantities of hydrogen peroxide in response to tumor necrosis factor, but only when the cells were adherent to surfaces coated with extracellular matrix proteins. The PMN did not respond when exposed to cytokines and matrix proteins in suspension, or when exposed to cytokines while adherent to surfaces coated with stearic acid. PMN from children with genetic deficiency of the CD11/CD18 integrins underwent a normal respiratory burst upon adherence to uncoated polystyrene, but not in response to tumor necrosis factor when tested on polystyrene that was coated with serum, fibronectin, vitronectin, fibrinogen, thrombospondin, or laminin. Anti-CD18 antibodies, alone of sixteen antibodies tested, induced a similar defect in PMN from normal donors, when the PMN were tested on surfaces coated with serum, fibrinogen, thrombospondin, or laminin; no defect was induced by the anti-CD18 monoclonal antibody IB4 in normal PMN tested on surfaces coated with fibronectin or vitronectin. Thus, for cytokines to induce a respiratory burst in PMN, the cells must be able to use CD11/CD18 integrins and must interact with matrix proteins in the solid phase. CD11/CD18, which is already known to serve as a receptor for fibrinogen, may also be a receptor for thrombospondin and laminin. Finally, receptor(s) exist on PMN for fibronectin and vitronectin which are not blocked by the anti-CD18 antibody IB4 but which are nonetheless CD11/CD18 dependent.
Efficacy of Fungal Laccase to Facilitate Biodethatching in Bermudagrass and Zoysiagrass (2013)

Accumulation of excessive organic matter in form of a thatch and/or mat layer can cause several problems in turfgrass management systems. A previous greenhouse study on creeping bentgrass ( Agrostis stolonifera L.) demonstrated that direct application of laccase solution every 2 wk reduced the rate of accumulation of organic matter and hence buildup of the thatch layer. A 2‐yr field study was conducted on an ultra‐dwarf bermudagrass [ Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. X C. transvaalensis Burtt Davy, ‘TifEagle’] research green, and zoysiagrass ( Zoysia japonica Steud., ‘Meyer’) maintained as a home lawn to observe the influence of laccase enzyme applications on thatch development. Laccase solution was applied biweekly at the activity levels of 0 (control) and 2.1 units cm –2 . Response to laccase enzyme applications by both the turfgrass species was recorded by measuring thatch layer physical and chemical properties after 6 mo of treatment applications within each year. A significant 18 to 22% and 21 to 30% reduction in thatch layer thickness was observed for bermudagrass and zoysiagrass, respectively. Organic matter content (0–2.5 cm) decreased by 23 to 24% while saturated hydraulic conductivity increased by 19 to 30% for bermudagrass in both years. Acid‐soluble and ‐insoluble lignin was reduced in both turfgrass species after laccase treatments. Results indicate that bi‐weekly application of laccase on bermudagrass and zoysiagrass has positive impact on thatch management.
Estimation of Vertebral Rotation and the Spinal and Rib Cage Deformity in Scoliosis by Computer Tomography (1981)

Computer tomography (CT) presents a method of determining longitudinal axis vertebral rotation and vertebral, spinal, and rib case deformity. Different rotation angles, distances, and indexes are defined and discussed. Radiation risks were evaluated and considered exceedingly small when compared to the ordinary spinal anteroposterior radiograph. In a model study the mean difference between actual vertebral rotation and measured rotation was 0.3 degrees if the vertebrae were tilted up to 20 degrees in either the frontal or sagittal plane. This accuracy was lost if the vertebrae were tilted 20 degrees in both the frontal and the sagittal plane. Computer tomography can be used for evaluation of the vertebral rotation in the frontal plane.
