For low-temperature thermoelectric applications, a bulk-phase inorganic/organic composite is prepared by introducing a conducting polymer, which is recognized as a potential organic thermoelectric material, into a representative inorganic thermoelectric material (n-type Bi2Te3). A conducting polymer, PEDOT:PSS, was chosen to prepare the Bi2Te3/PEDOT:PSS composite, wherein an intimate interface was formed between Bi2Te3 and PEDOT:PSS. The work function difference between Bi2Te3 and PEDOT:PSS created an energy barrier at the interface, possibly facilitating selective charge carrier transport depending on the energy levels of the carrier (i.e., energy filtering effect), thereby contributing to an enhancement in the Seebeck coefficient. The composite exhibited a completely different bipolar conduction tendency from pristine Bi2Te3, inducing a significant variation in the temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient. Furthermore, the interface may affect the carrier and phonon scattering probabilities, resulting in a considerable reduction in thermal conductivity. The composite adjustment was intensively studied to regulate the electrical and thermal properties using the energy filtering effect along with the carrier and phonon scattering probabilities, resulting in a noticeably enhanced thermoelectric performance. The temperature dependence of the performance was effectively adjusted using the bipolar conduction tendency, thereby affording the Bi2Te3/PEDOT:PSS composite exhibiting consistently high ZT values over the wide temperature range of 25–275 °C. The thermoelectric performance of Bi2Te3/PEDOT:PSS was competitive with that of previously reported high-performance n-type Bi2Te3-based analogs. The Bi2Te3/PEDOT:PSS composite is a promising n-type candidate for diverse low-temperature thermoelectric applications as a p-type Bi2Te3 counterpart.


In this paper, to clarify the stability characteristics of a flooded and capsized ship, the authors developed a computer program to calculate the restoring force. The program is validated using the results of experiments with a barge model. A full scale experiment of a capsized yacht is carried out to observe its restoration process to upright condition and the speed of flooding. On the basis of the experimental results, some calculations of the stability quality of the capsized yacht are carried out using the computer program.


Background Cardiac involvement and in particular conduction abnormalities represent a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies assessed the value of implantable loop recorder (ILR) for early detection of arrhythmias in asymptomatic patients with SSc; or whether cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) features associate with arrhythmias. Objectives To assess the prevalence of conduction abnormalities over a 3 year period using an ILR (REVEAL) and evaluate relationship with disease phenotype, cardiac biomarkers and CMR in SSc patients. Methods 20 patients(pts) with ACR/EULAR criteria for SSc, with no history of cardiovascular (CV) disease and ≤1 CV risk factor had 3T CMR with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and T1 mapping for ECV quantification. An ILR was then inserted, for 3 years follow-up. ILR data were downloaded every 3 months. Serum cardiac biomarkers were also measured at the initial visit. Results 19 pts had available ILR data; 12 (63%) females, median (SD) age 53(,12 6 (32%) diffuse SSc(dcSSc), 6 (32%) ACA+, 4 (21%) Scl70+, 8 (42%)history of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and 7 (36%) history of digital ulcers (DU). 14/19 had any ILR abnormalities, 8/14 significant arrhythmias: 1 complete heart block; 2 non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT), and 5 atrial arrhythmias (1 atrial flutter, 1 AF, 1 SVT, 1 AF and SVT and 1 AF followed by atrial flutter and SVT). Of these 8 pts, 4 had dcSSc, 2 Scl70+, 4 ACA+, 3 with ILD and 3 DU history. All 3 patients with severe arrhythmias (NSVT/CHB) were dcSSc, 2 Scl70+, 2 males. Management comprised 1 permanent pacemaker implantation, 3 antiarrhythmic treatment, 1 anticoagulation.15 pts had CMR. The 8 pts with significant arrhythmia appeared to have higher ECV, LV mass, and LVEF%(table 1). LGE was observed in 1(NSVT), of a total of 5/15 with LGE. HsTnI was considerably higher in those with significant arrhythmias[(mean diff.(95% CI)117 (-10, 245)].NTproBNP [(mean diff.(95% CI) 92 (-30, 214)] also appeared greater in those with significant arrhythmias. There was no difference in CK levels between the two groups.

The data suggest CMR ECV(but not LGE) and cardiac biomarkers, in particular hsTnI (indicating subclinical myocardial injury) may be able to identify at risk pts that would benefit from ILR screening. Future studies can inform a risk model, and provide insight into the pathogenesis of SSc associated arrhythmias. Disclosure of Interest None declared

The steam flooding front of the pilot well groups in Block Qi40 has been monitored by microseismic technique in order to understand the progress of steam flooding and improve flooding effect.The expanding of steam chamber and channel between the well groups is analyzed to determine the predominant direction and conformance area of steam flooding,to provide real time evaluation of development response and to provide basis for future measures and program adjustment.


paper introduces a new technique for reducing glitches in logic circuits implemented on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The technique is based on the principles of path balancing. The main objective was to achieve glitch minimization which, in turn would reduce dynamic power during routing on FPGAs. The glitch aware routing was adopted for simulations tests. The input paths to look-up table (LUT) are balanced by aligning signals so that all input signals arrive simultaneously at LUT. To perform simulation tests and validation of new design, two different benchmark logic circuits of adder and multiplier were considered for implementation on FPGAs. Simulated results' analyses of selected benchmark circuits showed that there was a reduction in dynamic power consumption by FPGAs by about 11.5% and 7.5% for LUT input size of 16 bits, for adder and multiplier circuits respectively. The improvements in power consumptions are based on the computations for glitch aware router with path balancing compared to that of glitch unaware routers.


Nitrendipine iv 0.01 mg·kg-1 lowered markedly the blood pressure. Metoprolol slightly increased the blood pressure at smaller doses (0.03-0.75 mg·kg-1) and a hypotensive effect was observed at doses ≥3.75 mg·kg-1. The hypotensive effect of nitrendipine was potentiated by metoprolol. In the isolated aortic rings, metoprolol increased thevasodilator action of nitrendipine. These results suggest that the increase in nitrendipine-induced hypotension by metoprolol occurs possibly in part at the vascular smooth muscle level.


INTRODUCTION: Several state-based and single center studies have demonstrated evidence of higher COVID-19 exposure rates, infection rates, and worse morbidity and mortality outcomes among minorities. Furthermore, challenges with vaccine access, hesitancy, distrust of the medical system further influenced who was protected from COVID-19.This study combines databases to conduct a multisite study across diverse states during the pandemic. METHOD(S): We conducted an ancillary study using the VIRUS (Viral Infection and Respiratory illness Universal Study) registry data supplemented by electronic medical record data from Mayo Clinic enterprise to assess demographics and outcomes among hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19. We included hospitalized adult patients admitted in five participating sites between April 2020 and January 2022 including academic hospitals in MN, AZ, and FL and two community hospitals in MN and WI. Selfidentified race and ethnicity data was categorized as White, Black, Asian, and Other;Hispanic and non-Hispanic. Other baseline characteristics, disease severity, and vaccination status were included in the analyses. The primary outcome was hospital mortality, the secondary outcomes were length of stay and healthcare utilization. Multivariable regression models were developed to analyze the interactions of relevant variables to predict outcomes. RESULT(S): 6904 patients were included. 3398 (57.8%) were male and 86.9% White,3.6% Black,3.3% Asian,6.2% Other. The mean age of Whites was 64.9 years v.53.8, 58, 52.8 respectively (p< 0.0005). Whites had higher Charlson comorbidity scores-5.2 v.4.0,3.6,3.0 respectively (p< 0.005). Vaccination rates were low in cohort, but higher among Whites 11.2% v.5.4%,4.6%,5.0% respectively (p< 0.0005). Mortality outcomes between different racial groups did not differ (p=0.41). Non-Hispanics were older than Hispanics- mean age 64.5 years v.53 (p< 0.005) and had higher Charlson comorbidity scores-5.2 v.3.4 (p< 0.005) Vaccination rates among non-Hispanics were 10.7 v 3.4% (p< 0.005)). Mortality outcomes between ethnic groups did not differ(p=0.86). Mortality outcomes between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients did not differ (p=0.9). CONCLUSION(S): Despite differences in risk factors between demographic groups, outcomes did not differ significantly in this cohort.


With the advent of digital Healthcare system, the world has started to implement various technologies to promote better and quality healthcare solutions to the individuals, increase the life expectancy and reduce the healthcare cost. One among them, is the Digital Twin (DT) which takes the Digital healthcare to its next stage of providing patient tailored treatment to the people. Digital Twin (DT) is the concept of creating the replica of an existing process, workflow or an asset, which enables the data flow between the real component and its counterpart. Accordingly, a hepatitis infection level classifier was built with machine learning and deep learning algorithms to diagnose liver infection and classify the type of hepatitis infection. The implemented models successfully predicted the type of liver infection – hepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis with high accuracy. The Artificial Neural network (ANN) outperforms traditional machine learning algorithms in handling sample data related to liver infection. The predicted results have shown that integrating DT to the smart healthcare field would improve the healthcare procedures to provide specific patient tailored treatment and will bring together the patients and healthcare professionals to a smart and intelligent Health- Ecosystem.

Integrated Nutrient Management refers to the maintenance of soil fertility and plant nutrient supply at an optimum level for sustaining the desired productivity through optimization of the benefits from all possible sources of organic (farm yard manures, poultry manures, crop residues, green manures), inorganic and biological (bio-fertilizers etc.) components in an integrated manner, appropriate to each farming situation in its ecological, social and economic possibilities. Ex-post facto research design was used for the study. Three talukas viz., Vadali, Idar and Himmatnagar were randomly selected for the study. Five villages and ten dealers were randomly selected from the each taluka. Thus, total fifteen villages were selected, and each selected village, ten farmers were randomly selected, which includes a final sample size of 150 farmers. The data were collected by personal contact method with the help of structured interview schedule and collected data were coded, classified, tabulated and analysed in the light of objectives and in order to make the findings realistic for drawing meaningful interpretation. The statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation were used for the study. The major constraints faced by the farmers in adoption of INM (Integrated Nutrient Management) were; lack of technical knowledge / guidance, unavailability of FYM, high cost of fertilizers, non-availability of fertilizers when needed and lack of training. The suggestions given by the farmers to overcome the constraints faced by the farmers in adoption of INM were; manures and fertilizers should be provided at reasonable rate, adequate supply of fertilizers should be timely available, technical guidance should be provided, training programs on Integrated Nutrient Management should be organized by extension personnel.


The behaviour of an optical system is known if the position of the point of intersection of an arbitrary ray passing through the system with any chosen plane of reference can be determined. In the present paper tangential aberrations of any order are defined in terms of the distance of this point from an ideal image point, using elementary methods only. It is shown how these aberrations may be computed in practice without the use of any trigonometrical traces. As a practical example, the computations necessary for the determination of the complete primary and secondary aberrations and of the tertiary spherical aberration are given in detail for the case of a Cooke Triplet. The information so obtained is compared with that yielded by strict trigonometrical tracing, illustrating the good agreement between them and the simplicity of the computations involved.


Guest editors Stewart and Kagan reflect on what the articles in this special section have taught us about the impact of globalization on education systems around the world. They conclude with recommendations for steps the U.S. can take to advance its own role in the ongoing development of international education. AFTER THE discovery of atomic fission, Albert Einstein said, "Everything has changed except the way we think." While less cataclysmic, the quickening pace of globalization over the past 20 years--driven by the profound technological changes described by Thomas Friedman in The World Is Flat; by the economic resurgence of China, Russia, and India; and by the accelerating pace of scientific discovery--has produced a whole new world. The implications of these changes are not completely clear, but it is clear that the changes will be profound. Information, people, and ideas now traverse the globe with unprecedented speed and frequency. Perhaps even more important, such internationalization affects every field of endeavor. Yet somewhat ironically, our educational discourse is largely stuck in a time warp, framed by issues and standards set decades before the widespread use of the personal computer, the Internet, and free trade agreements. But we can no more afford to isolate ourselves educationally than we can economically or in terms of national security. At the same time, other countries such as China, Russia, India, South Africa, Chile, Jordan, and Brazil, to mention but a few, are reexamining their education systems and making fundamental reforms in response to changed political conditions and demographic shifts and in order to prepare their students to be successful in the knowledge-intensive, high-tech, and globalized economy. They and other nations around the world are eager to share their own experiences and effective practices and to learn from the educational choices made by other countries. COMMON CHALLENGES Clearly, because of widely differing historical, social, and economic contexts, the nations of the world are at very different stages of progress in education and child development services. But as economies in most of the world become more knowledge-intensive and as populations press for greater opportunities for their children, governments face many similar challenges as they seek to expand access to education and child development services; to increase the quality, effectiveness, and accountability of their investments in these areas; and to wrestle with new issues brought on by globalization itself. 1. Increasing access. Worldwide, access to education has improved greatly over the past 30 years. Enormous expansions of basic education in countries as different as South Africa and Turkey have helped to open up societies in ways unimaginable a generation ago. But much remains to be done--110 million children around the world, including over 60 million girls, do not go to school at all. The high returns on investments in basic education in terms of health and economic development suggest the urgency of creating effective national and international responses to the Millennium Development Goal of getting all children into basic education by 2015. Even where children are enrolled in school, the overwhelming challenge remains to narrow the achievement gaps between poor children and their more affluent peers and between children in cities and those in rural areas. The nature of a society's expenditures and policies can have a major impact on the size of these gaps and is an important area for cross-national discussion. (1) More recently, some societies have begun to invest in early childhood services on a large scale. These investments have been spurred by research on the early development of the brain; by longitudinal evaluations of early intervention programs that demonstrate the benefits of early childhood education for children's cognitive, social, and emotional development as well as their longer-term success in school and in the labor force; and by the significant cost savings that accrue to those societies that provide the benefit of high-quality early education. …


Public transportation saves money, makes travel easier, and so enhances opportunities and property value. It also minimizes air pollution, relieves traffic congestion, and provides job opportunities for millions of people. Trains, buses, and other forms of public transportation that operate on regular routes and charge predetermined prices are referred to as public transportation. This mode of transportation is an important aspect of every society because of the role it plays. That is why most municipal governments offer incentives for residents to use public transportation and leave their personal vehicles at home. Apart from being cost-effective, public transportation can alleviate a number of issues that cities confront, particularly those with heavy car dependency. Crude oil prices, which rose well beyond $100 per barrel as a result of the demandsupply gap and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, may also come back faster than they climbed. The main objective of this system is to provide an application that allows residents and visitors of a city to find out more about transportation-related aspects of the city. Aspects include information about public transportation options, schedules, fares, and so forth (education). The site might also provide real-time information about buses and other public transportation information. This application software has been computed successfully and was also tested successfully by taking "test cases". It is user-friendly and has the required options, which can be utilized by the user to perform the desired operations. The software is developed using Java as the front end and Oracle as the back end in a Windows environment. The goals that are achieved by the software are: Optimum utilization of resources, Efficient management of records, Simplification of the operations, Less processing time and getting required information, User friendly, and Portable and flexible for further enhancement.


In this paper,we found the procedural justice has no significant influence on the employee silence especially in China.Then after comparing the four profile means based on two dimensions of distribution justice and interpersonal justice,we found two important conclusions.One is that the employee silence is most likely to happen in the organizational justice atmosphere of "low distribution justice-low interpersonal justice";the other is that distribution justice based on the instrumental orientation is important to employee silence reducing as well as the interpersonal justice based on the non-instrumental orientation.This paper probes the real relation between the interaction of three components conduct of organizational justice and employee silence.It argues that the business managers should create a new unified dynamic organizational justice atmosphere to get employees involved in the organizational decision-making and break the organizational silence.


Interstate integration functions, which are inherent in both systems – municipal law (ML) and international public law (IPL), in the process of interaction of these systems in the information and legal space of the noosphere, cause a synergistic effect, which positively affects the qualitative content of this process noosphere law (NL).
Interstate integration features of ML branches according to the constitutional law (KL) of IPL subjects, which are manifested on a global scale in relation to the IPL system, allow to qualify many branches of ML as part of national law (PNL) subjects of IPL subjects as a separate legal system IPL and PNL. Therefore, at present, it is possible to assert the existence of three types of law: on the basis of the IPL system, the PNL system and the IPL system, which, in turn, has dualistic properties as a global-regional legal system.
Thus, the process of interaction of IPL and ML systems due to their interstate integration functions, and, according to the concept of teleology of this process, from the beginning is focused on the emergence, formation and future development of the NSL system. However, it is necessary to monitor this process, taking into account its convergent-divergent lability and the likely strengthening of dangerous trends against the background of excessive pressure of international legal sanctions on individual entities of IPL and ML. These trends point to the threat to the world civilization system by the irreversible autarky of the largest subjects of IPL.
In the current conditions, it is important that the application of the "topological double-circuit shell-nuclear information-legal Model of the noosphere" in the study of the phenomenon of synergism of IPL and ML systems allows to obtain a reliable forecast at all stages of the NSL system.


The invention discloses a method for manufacturing health Moringa wine. The method comprises the following steps of firstly washing Moringa leaves, drying in the shade, coarsely crushing and preparing into 250-300 meshes ultra-fine powder, mixing the Moringa leaf powder with yeast at a ratio of 50-(200:1) evenly, carrying out solid saccharification and fermentation at the constant temperature of 13-18 DEG C for 5-10 days under an aseptic condition to obtain Moringa base stock, putting the fermented Moringa base stock into the base wine according to a ratio of 1:(10-40), soaking for 30-60 days, taking the wine base soaked with the Moringa base stock out and filtering to obtain filtrate and blending the filtrate into Moringa health wine having alcohol contents of 28% (v/v), 38% (v/v), 46 % (v/v) or 52 % (v/v) respectively and standing still for 12-15 days, sterilizing and canning.


Experiments have been reported by Beebe and Van Alstyne showing that withdrawal of carbohydrates from the diet of white rats markedly inhibits the "taking" and rate of growth of transplantable malignant tumors in these animals. Cremer and Lockhead have recently shown that carbohydrate is utilized in the growth of tumor tissue in experimental tumor rats. As a development of the idea that utilization of glucose plays an important rôle in the synthesis of new protoplasm, we have carried out experiments upon rats planted with the "Buffalo sarcoma" in which the animals were placed upon a carbohydrate-free diet, and at the same time rendered diabetic through the injection of 0.2 gram doses of phlorhizin in olive oil once in two or three days. As a brief summary of our results in this connection it may be stated that we have worked with about forty rats in all, so far, and that the results are so striking and constant as to warrant a positive statement that the production of the complete diabetes in experimental sarcoma rats is followed by retrogression and ultimate cure of the growth in every case where the growth at the time of beginning of the treatment does not exceed 20 by 25 millimeters, and the animal will survive the treatment for a period of at least ten days. In every case where the animal lives for three days a marked effect upon the growth is to be noted. Small growths show no local reaction, but begin to retrogress at once, while in very large growths there is rapid development of local inflammation and softening. Small growths go on to complete cure, while with large growths the death of the animal most frequently occurs before much of the growth has been absorbed.

Abstract: Coal is a valuable resource used as a source of energy all over the world. Most applications burn coal for small and large scale power generation, or use coal as a reductant in metallurgical applications. There is, however, the opportunity to use coal as an energy feedstock for the production of a range of fuels and chemicals as well as high-efficiency electricity, via gasification-based technologies or direct coal-to-liquids systems. This chapter explores the technologies, applications, barriers and research challenges associated with gasification and conversion of coal for the production of high efficiency power, transport fuels, and chemicals. It considers some of the emerging technologies which aim to reduce costs and emissions associated with coal use. These technologies also offer integrated pathways to cost-effective CO 2 capture from coal-based plant.


Abstract Arsenic is a ubiquitous metalloid found in the environment. Its chronic exposure is of global health concern as it causes lung, skin and bladder cancers, as well as non-cancer illness such as skin lesions, and cardiovascular and neurological diseases. While the environmental occurrence, fate, and toxicity of inorganic As has been well documented, limited research is available on organic As compounds. Organic As compounds often result from As metabolism in marine organisms, but they also enter the biosphere through anthropogenic activities including feed additives for livestock. Here, the state of knowledge on organic As is reviewed, encompassing their occurrence, toxicology and biotransformation including biosynthesis, methylation, and degradation. Knowledge gaps and possible research directions are identified, including metabolic pathways of synthesis and degradation, the impacts of metabolic transformations on toxicity and development of new analytical methods.


The purpose of the article is to substantiate the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of the study of the accounting policy of the enterprise in the conditions of war. The full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation on the territory of independent and sovereign Ukraine caused significant negative phenomena and processes occurring in the economy and society. Destabilizing factors had the most significant destructive impact on the sphere of entrepreneurship, as a result of which the conduct of economic activity underwent significant destabilizing changes, and the risks of negative effects significantly increased. The introduction of a special legal regime of martial law in the country caused the need to keep records of economic transactions at enterprises taking into account the factors of war, which significantly reformatted approaches to the accounting system at enterprises and caused its changes. The article analyzes the main scientific approaches to determining the essence of the company's accounting policy and elucidates the specifics of its change in the context of the economic and legal analysis of current legislation in the field of accounting and financial reporting. It has been proven that the existing destabilizing factors of a military nature have a significant destructive effect on the state and changes in the accounting policy of the enterprise, which are due to the need to reflect in the accounting and financial reporting of economic transactions associated with the: impossibility of economic activity or its significant limitations due to the conduct of active hostilities; forced relocation business entities to relatively safe territories; legal restrictions on settlements with Russian and Belarusian counterparties; increased risks of counterparty default; destruction, large-scale destruction, damage and depreciation of assets as a result of active hostilities; provision of defense assistance; as well as settlements with employees in conditions of martial law. The main methods of improving the accounting policy of the enterprise in the conditions of war are proposed.

A simple, fast, and reliable characterization of thermal properties method to determine junction temperature (Tj) in high power GaN-based light emitting diodes (LED) was presented in this study. Thermal characteristics of high power Light-emitting-diode have been analyzed by using a three-dimensional thermal conduction model. Maximum operation temperature has also been calculated. The induced thermal behaviours of the best package processes for LED device with diamond film were investigated by finite element analysis (FEA) and by experimental measurement. The large change of forward operation voltage with temperature in light emitting diodes is advantageously used to measure junction temperature. Using this method, junction temperatures (Tj) of a LED under various structures and chip mounting methods were measured. It was found that the junction temperature can be reduced considerably by diamond film substrates. For diamond film substrates LED, as much as two-fold reduction in junction temperature can be achieved compared to other structures. In this study, we will report how we can achieve the junction temperature had to decrease about 10 percent for more than 1.5W- power dissipation for 1mm square die. It was found that the thermal resistance using diamond film structure is measured to be 17°C/W which is the lowest than other structures.


In this paper we present the asymptotic distributions of solutions to initial-value problems for the Burgers equation when the initial condition is either a Gaussian stationary process or a one-degree chi-square process with a long-range dependence.


Passive interest turbulent drag reduction, effective means to improve air vehicle fuel consumption costs. Most turbulent problems happening to the nature and engineering applications were exactly the turbulence problem frequently caused by one or more turbulent shear flows. This study was operated with incompressible 3-D channels with cyclic wavy boundary to explore the physical properties of turbulence flow. This research measures the distribution of average velocity, instant flowing field shapes, turbulence and pressure distribution, etc. Furthermore, the systematic computation and analysis for the 3-D flow field was also implemented. It was aimed to clearly understand the turbulence fields formed by wavy boundary of tube flow. The purpose of this research is to obtain systematic structural information about the turbulent flow field and features of the turbulence structure are discussed.

Human observations have the potential to significantly improve the actuality and completeness of data about phenomena such as noise distribution in urban environments. The Human Sensor Web aims at providing approaches for creating and sharing human observations as well as sensor observations on the Web. One challenge is the integration of these observations for further analysis. The aspects presented in this paper are examined by the example of a noise mapping community.


Some flow characteristics of the channel with a distributary are investigated analytically and experimentally in this report.To research flow characteristics mainly in the main channel, pattern of these flows are finally reduced by means of the overlap principle to the "symmetrical out-flow", that is, the out-flow from an openning of a channel side-wall (an orifice of a tank with the finite width and infinite length) corresponding to the junction of a distributary. These flow patterns are fundamentally calculated by conformal representations and the critical condition of the occurrence of upstream-ward back-flow and the stagnation point near the downstream corner of the openning were determined by these analyses.The occurrence of the super-critical region near the upstream corner of the openning which is similar to the transonic problem in the aerodynamics is also investigated by the above-mentioned method and these characteristics are verified by our experiments.We found experimentally interesting relations between the distribution ratio of tractive sand loads and of water discharge. It was recognized that tractive loads flowing into a distributary were nearly provided only by the distribution ratio of discharge and scarely any other hydraulic quantities, and also that when about half part of total discharge (the distribution ratio: κ≅50%), almost all tractive loads flowed into a distributary (the distribution ratio of loads: eg≅100%). Our tentative experimental relations between κ and eg are as shown follows.1-κg=4.510 (0.530-κ)2, κ>-0.11Moreover, the situation and the type of jetties near the branching part are delibarated by our experiments and the detached type jetty with a submerged mole is proposed as the most suitable one.In the last chapter of this report, our field and model studies for the improvement of the intake work of the hydraulic power station are briefly mentioned.


The subject of this article is calving in the daytime instead of the night. This is a management practice that saves time and effort normally expended during calving at night. IT doesn't require any capital outlay and can lead to increased profits.


Influence of the heat shock applied during the two-week in vitro culture on mammalian postimplantation embryo was investigated. Fisher rat egg-cylinders 9, 5-days-old were isolated and the extraembryonal part was discarded. Embryos were cultivated on a lens paper at the air-liquid interface supported by a steel grid for 14 days. Chemically defined Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium was supplemented with 50% rat serum or 50μ g/ml transferrin. Experimental samples were kept at different temperatures (430C, 420C or 40, 50C) for various periods of time (10 minutes to 14 days). Medium was changed every other day and minor and major axes of embryos were measured during culture period. Embryos were fixed in St. Marie's fixative and processed for routine histology or immunohistochemistry. Antibodies against proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) (Dako) and nestin (Rat 401, Hybridoma Bank) were applied and detected by Dako ARK Animal Research Kit and Dako EnVision Doublestain System. In the serum-supplemented cultures overall growth and expression of PCNA and nestin in embryos seemed neither to be affected with 420C applied for 15 minutes at the beginning of culture, only nor when temperature of 430C was applied for 30 minutes every day for the first 7 days. Growth was affected with 430C when embryos were treated for 24 hours. At temperature of 40, 50C applied throughout the culture period overall growth was more affected in serum-free than in serum-supplemented culture conditions. It can be concluded that rat embryo-proper in this in vitro model of postimplantational development is sensitive to heat shock of longer duration.


COPII vesicles of 60-90nm diameter are known to export secretory cargoes from endoplasmic reticulum (ER). However, they cannot be employed to export bulky cargoes like the collagens that can reach up to 400 nm in length. Collagens, the most abundant secretory proteins, make up 25% of our dry body weight and required for building extracellular matrix, and to produce mineralized bones. The discovery TANGO1 has made the process of collagen export at the ER amenable to molecular analysis. I set out to identify its interactors through a proximity biotinylation coupled with mass spectrometry approach. My results show that TANGO1 bridges the cytoplasmic export machinery with ER luminal folding machinery. It is noteworthy that several of the luminal interactors identified are exclusively dedicated to collagen folding and modification. This search also revealed the identity of protein called Torsin-1A, and my data show that it potentially functions in degrading unfolded collagens. I also asked whether TANGO1 is required to export transmembrane collagens. Transmembrane collagens are unique as they have a cytoplasmic domain that can in theory recruit COPII proteins to facilitate their export. I observed minimal dependency on TANGO1 for transmembrane collagen XVII export. Interestingly, TANGO1 binds both folded and misfolded Collagen XVII. Altogether, my data suggest that TANGO1 functions predominantly to export soluble collagens its ability to bind both folded and unfolded collagens is used by the cells to eliminate unfolded collagens and to ensure only the full assembled and functional collagen are secreted.


Solar photovoltaic water pumping systems have been research topics in recent decades. The purpose was to develop much more profitable and efficient systems to meet the needs of pumping water for livestock and irrigation. This paper describes the design of a stand-alone photovoltaic water pumping system. A Boost converter is used to apply the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm. Similarly, a three-phase voltage source converter (VSC) is used to supply the asynchronous motor. The installation must provide a continuous water flow during the irrigation interval. It has been verified that in adverse weather conditions (cloud transits or partly cloudy) it is necessary to incorporate a decentralized-hybrid energy storage system (based on batteries or ultracapacitors), or excessively oversize the standalone photovoltaic system, to supply the water pump. The model has been simulated in Matlab-Simulink. In this way, different simulations have been developed to verify the basic characteristics of the proposed system. The results of the simulated model and the conclusions obtained are also presented in this paper.


Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to compare the acceptance ratings and drivers of liking and disliking attributes of aseptic-packaged cooked rice by consumers, researchers and experts. Design/methodology/approach – Descriptive analysis (DA) was conducted using trained panelists. Acceptability was measured by consumers, researchers and experts. The results of DA and acceptability were analyzed using partial least square regression. Findings – There was no strong relationship among the three groups in their rating patterns for the samples (r=−0.342-0.445). The liking factors for each group were as follows: consumers (rice cake flavor and moisture), researchers (wet wood flavor and whiteness) and experts (wet wood flavor and size of rice). The disliking factors for each group were as follows: consumers (wet wood flavor and brown particle), researchers (moisture) and experts (old rice aroma). The consumers, researchers and experts seemed to have different acceptances and key descriptive attributes for a...


An interior point method for solving nonlinear mul- tiobjective programming problems, over a convex set contained in the real space R n , has been developed in this paper. In this method a new strictly concave logarithmic barrier function has been sug- gested in order to transform the orginal problem into a sequence of unconstrained subproblems. These subproblems can be solved us- ing Newton method for determining Newton's directions along which line searches are performed. It also has been proved that the number of iterations required by the suggested algorithm to converge to an "-optimal solution is O(m |ln"|), depending on predetermined error tolerance " and the number of constraints m.


The single crystal diamond with maximum width about 10 mm has been grown by using microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition equipment. The quality of the grown diamond was characterized using an X-ray diffractometer. The FWHM of the (004) rocking curve is 37.91 arcsec, which is comparable to the result of the electronic grade single crystal diamond commercially obtained from Element Six Ltd. The hydrogen terminated diamond field effect transistors with Au/MoO3 gates were fabricated based on our CVD diamond and the characteristics of the device were compared with the prototype Al/MoO3 gate. The device with the Au/MoO3 gate shows lower on-resistance and higher gate leakage current. The detailed analysis indicates the presence of aluminum oxide at the Al/MoO3 interface, which has been directly demonstrated by characterizing the interface between Al and MoO3 by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In addition, there should be a surface transfer doping effect of the MoO3 layer on H-diamond even with the atmospheric-adsorbate induced 2DHG preserved after MoO3 deposition.
