Použitie zameraného ultrazvuku pomáha zachraňovať a uľahčovať ľudské životy, nakoľko práve jeho využitím môžeme liečiť epilepsiu, ničiť rakovinové bunky a zastavovať vnútorné krvácanie neinvazívnou cestou, ktorá predstavuje pre človeka prijateľnejšie a bezpečnejšie riešenie. Vzhľadom na to, že bezpečnosť a zdravie človeka je prioritou pri liečení závažných ochorení, sa táto práca zaoberá porovnaním rôznych evolučných algoritmov a ich použitím pri návrhu evolučných ultrazvukových operačných plánov. V práci sa využívajú dva typy médií, a to homogénne médium a heterogénne médium. Pri vyhodnocovaní algoritmov sa zameriavame na efektivitu s ohľadom na veľkosť populácie, počet evaluácií fitness funkcie a výpočetný čas. V homogénnom médiu sa ako najlepší algoritmus ukázal CMA-ES, ktorý v priebehu 20 sekúnd dokázal nájsť optimálne riešenie so 100% pokrytím cieľovej oblasti pre rotované zrnko ryže. Heterogénne médium je ale oveľa zložitejší problém, predovšetkým kvôli lebke, ktorá odráža a pohlcuje veľkú časť ultrazvuku. Tu sa ako najlepší preukázal algoritmus SA, ktorý našiel výsledok s 23% pokrytím cieľovej oblasti v prvom testovacom scenári. Doba výpočtu trvala približne 1 hodinu a 18 minút, čo značí že je čas veľmi znemožňujúci ("drahý") faktor.

Full textAbstract:
L'utilisation des milieux superacides modifiant la réactivité des substrats organiques permet d'effectuer de nouvelles réactions et d'accéder rapidement à des produits originaux difficilement accessibles par les méthodes classiques. Il est alors possible de réaliser de nombreuses transformations directes, notamment des réactions de fluoration originales. Ce travail est consacré à l'étude de la réactivité de dérivés azotés insaturés en milieu superacide HF/SbF5 et en particulier au développement de nouvelles méthodes de fluoration de ce type de composés. Basée sur la formation d'intermédiaires dicationiques superélectrophiles, une nouvelle réaction d'hydrofluoration a été développée. L'utilisation de l'activation superélectrophile en milieu superacide a également permis la synthèse originale de sulfonamides cycliques et/ou fluorés. Après identification d'intermédiaires réactionnels polycationiques par analyse RMN in situ, une nouvelle méthode de synthèse de dérivés azotés gem-chlorofluorés et gem-difluorés a finalement été élaboréeIn superacid the reactivity of organic substrates is strongly modified and new reactions can be performed, which allows a rapid access to original products. In these conditions, multiple direct transformations occur and especially original fluorination reactions. This work was devoted to the study of the reactivity of unsaturated nitrogen derivatives in superacid (HF/SbF5) and to the development of new methods of fluorination of these compounds. Based on the formation of superelectrophilic dicationic intermediates, a new reaction of hydrofluorination has been developed. The use of superelectrophilic activation in superacid also allowed the original synthesis of benzofused sultams and/or fluorinated sulfonamides. After identification of reaction polycationic intermediates by NMR in situ analysis, a new synthetic route to gem-chlorofluoro nitrogen derivatives or gem-difluoro nitrogen derivatives has finally been set up

Full textAbstract:
Urban gondola lift systems are becoming a regular sight rather than a rarity throughout the globe. Authors attribute their increasing popularity to factors such as environmental sustainability, operational reliability and cost efficiency compared to other right-of-way transit solutions. Replacing conventional modes of transit with urban gondolas cannot however be achieved without tackling several operational challenges. As potential new operators often lack the human resources and knowledge base required to successfully man, operate and maintain systems, they turn to manufacturers for increased after-sale support. Companies of the Doppelmayr Garaventa Group, the world’s largest manufacturer of gondola lifts, responded to these demand patterns by offering complete operations & maintenance contracts which, among other services, include the delivery and installation of reserve components. Calculating the total cost of such components for the life cycle of a system however still proves to be demanding and requires new computational models to increase its efficiency. The applicative purpose of this paper was thus set to formulate a model that is capable of performing life cycle cost calculations for components of urban gondola lift systems, according to a set of criterion defined by industrial entities. Its research aim is accordingly to answer questions about how concurrent instruments are set up, what models does contemporary research regard as efficient in similar industries and whether these models are able to enhance life cycle cost calculation capability within the urban gondola lift market. These aims were achieved through an analysis of current company practices, followed by the formulation of two new model alternatives based on a review of contemporary scientific literature, and concluded by an iterative process wherein the two alternatives were compared to each other in terms of performance and then merged to combine the best performing features of each version. Through a second iteration, the merged model was then compared to current instruments and established as the superior choice, using industry criteria. The paper concludes by resolving the research questions it set out to answer and making further recommendations for the direction of future research and studies.

Liu, Peng. "Functional studies of type II heterodimeric phytochromes and end-modified type I phyAs in arabidopsis." Diss., Montana State University, 2011. http://etd.lib.montana.edu/etd/2011/liu/LiuP0811.pdf.
Full textAbstract:
Phytochromes (phys) are a family of dimeric chromoprotein photoreceptors that modulate plant physiological and developmental processes in response to red (R) and far-red (FR) light. In Arabidopsis thaliana, these fall into two functional groups, type I phyA and type II phyB-E. Previous findings have shown that heterodimerization occurs in type II phytochromes and suggest that diverse dimer forms may have specific functions. The first objective of this study was to characterize the activities of individual phytochrome dimer combinations by developing a novel in vivo protein engineering system. Either obligate homodimers or heterodimers of phytochrome N-terminal regions were produced in phyB mutant plants. With this system, a highly active phyB/D heterodimeric form was shown to rescue the phyB mutant phenotype. Dimers of phyB/achromo-phyB, phyB/C, and phyB/E mediated organ-specific growth in de-etiolation by functioning differentially in cotyledons but not in hypocotyls. Light labile phyA is critical in the plant transition from skotomorphogenic to photomorphogenic growth. To investigate possible in vivo phyA heterodimerization with type II phys and the relationship between phy quaternary structure and signaling mechanisms, transgenic plants were generated that express different myc- tagged N- or C-terminal end fusion phyA proteins in a Landsberg erecta (Ler) phyA mutant or a wild-type background. Co-immunoprecipitation showed that phyA only forms homodimers with itself. Compared with fully active one myc epitope (myc1)-tagged phyAs, six myc epitopes attached to the ends of the N- or C- terminus of phyA impaired phyA-mediated far-red high irradiance (FR-HIR) signaling and also attenuated degradation in the light, indicating that alteration of phyA architecture may damage protein-protein interaction both in phyA downstream signaling and in its protein turnover. Overall, these findings have expanded the structurally complex R/FR sensing systems in plants and have implications for how plant growth and development may be fine-tuned through phy heterodimer-mediated tissue-specific growth or phy-modified activity.

Full textAbstract:
This doctoral thesis describes, critically evaluates and reflects on the development and evaluation of an innovative approach to supporting individuals after a stroke. This approach consists of; a once-weekly, twelve week, stroke self-management programme consisting of interactive information provision, rehabilitation and exercise in an environment of peer and caregiver support called ‘ASPIRE’ – an acronym for Acute stroke, Self-management support, secondary Prevention, Information, Rehabilitation and Exercise. The development of the ASPIRE programme was influenced by interviews with those involved in the ASPIRE programme and the process and results of a primary research evaluation using mixed methods. The aim of this two phase evaluation was to 1) identify participants’ views as to the outcomes of attending the ASPIRE programme, using a grounded theory approach and 2) identify whether those outcomes could be assessed using currently existing standardised validated tools. Three key themes were identified; A life I like – the confidence to do the everyday activities important to a person after a stroke; Changing hearts and minds – the confidence, knowledge and health behaviour change to reduce vascular risk after stroke and In the same boat – the benefits of peer support for stroke survivors and caregivers. These themes were used to select relevant standardised validated tools; the Stroke Knowledge Test (SKT), Stroke Self Efficacy Questionnaire (SSEQ), Cerebrovascular Attitudes and Beliefs Scale (CABS-R), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Caregiver Strain Index (CSI). Statistically significant gains were identified in the SKT and HADS – depression score. The tools were useful and sensitive to change; however, the SSEQ had a ceiling effect with this cohort and the CABS-R was found difficult to use. Although existing outcome tools may not adequately measure new multi-factorial post-stroke interventions such as the ASPIRE programme, the unique contributions of this doctoral thesis to the body of knowledge are that; • An enabling culture, that includes peer support for stroke survivors and caregivers, helps individuals to move forward after stroke. • Support for self-generated goal planning, based on a ‘life-thread’ approach, may improve outcomes from stroke survivors’ perspectives. • Supporting individuals to develop the confidence, knowledge and health behaviours to reduce vascular risk can be an integral and complementary part of rehabilitation after stroke. A multi-factorial programme to enable life after stroke should therefore include both rehabilitation “A life I like” and secondary prevention “A life to live”. • Individually tailored exercise programmes to support rehabilitation and secondary prevention can be used with groups of stroke survivors with a wide range of deficits.

Limu, especially the edible marine algae, play an important part in Hawaiian culture. Limu has nutritional, spiritual, and social value for Hawaiians. Over 200 different Hawaiian names of limu have been documented. Positive scientific identification for most of these names, however, is lacking. By meeting and talking with a variety of limu-knowledgeable peoples, a great deal of information was recorded. positive identifications as well as uses for some of these limu have been documented and recorded as a resource for future generations. The limu database, constructed as a part of this research, contains information from published sources, audio and video recordings, and personal interviews conducted for this thesis. This database should be considered a launching point for future research and not a completed work. It is expected that the work will continue as new generations learn more and more.xi, 285 leaves

Abdalsadig, M. "Gas lift optimization utilising automation gas lift valve." Thesis, University of Salford, 2017. http://usir.salford.ac.uk/44593/.
Full textAbstract:
Gas lift is one of the most common forms of artificial lift, particularly for offshore wells. This is due to its relative downhole simplicity, flexibility, reliability, and ability in operating over a wide range of flow rates with the limited well head space. Generally, Gas lift optimization can reduce the operating cost with increase in the Net Present Value (NPV) and maximization of the recovery from the asset. All of the previous researches have reported that conventional gas lift technologies’ designs have limitations on gas lift valve. Nonetheless, traditional gas lift technologies that were designed and developed in 1950’s do not have resistance when subjected to high temperature and high pressure in subsea wells. This therefore unable the flows of the gas lift to be coherently controlled. Moreover, gas-lifted oil wells can lead to failure unless a smart gas lift valve unit is used in the controlling the amount of the gas inside the tubing string. In this study, an automation gas lift valve unit with the corresponding control line was experimentally simulated on a dedicated apparatus. This enables real-time data on the gas lift valve to the surface to be demonstrated and accordingly analyzed. Under the conventional method of practice the injection pressure of the gas is normally used in operation of the valve. Whereas in this investigation the port size of the gas lift valve was remotely adjusted from the assumed surface using the apparatus. A devoted computer program LabVIEW was also used in determination of the gas passage through the smart gas lift valve, thus distilling the real time data. The results have shown those optimizations are achievable at high gas injection pressure when 87 psi is used and when the valve is 15% open (or 0.95mm port size diameter). Also, the wellhead pressure reaches to the minimum value of 0.9 psi in which high-pressure drop between the reservoir pressure and the top surface will occur. Throughout this investigation, water was used as a working fluid since the column of corresponding water in petroleum production tubing has the highest hydrostatic pressure of 2.8 psig compared with crude oil. Hence, during the gas lift process crude oil will be less cumbersome to produce than water. The results present the maximum production rate of 18.3 lit/min (with 83% improvement on production) could be achieved. The results obtained experimentally were also used in constructing an economic analysis from the use of smart gas lift valve for different scenarios namely: (i) in gas lift natural flow and (ii) the gas lift wells. It was demonstrated that the flow rate can be enhanced from 91bbl/day to 166.5 bbl/day for the gas lift natural flow, and from ‘Zero’ (or non-production) to165.6 bbl/day for the gas lift well. Based on these results, the NPV of the gas lift natural flow will be approximately $2793 on $37 per barrel and for the gas lift well will be about $6127.2.

Resumo: O estudo da cosmovisão de Hughes, inspirada em Lawrence e remontando a Bergson, abre novas perspectivas não exploradas pelos críticos, evidenciando aspectos inéditos em sua poesia. Da mesma maneira que Lawrence, Hughes procura ir alem das aparências exteriores, revelando o próprio processo vital, que e captado somente em raros momentos de percepção intuitiva. 0 objetivo principal de sua poesia e salientar como real idades 'outras ' as criaturas do mundo rião-humano, destacando-as como receptáculos da poderosa força vital existente no uni verso. Insiste em celebrar a vitalidade dos pássaros, animais e plantas, porque considera o homem demasiadamente auto matizado,fato que o impede de viver. Os indícios de degeneração que vê no homem moderno, Hughes os atribui a excessiva mecanização, que reduziu o homem a um autômato, interrompendo o contacto vital com as outras criaturas vivas. Estas ideias, que Lawrence expõe nas obras em prosa, i .e., ensaios, cartas, relatos de viagens, especulações filosóficas, romances e contos são retomadas por Hughes em sua poesia, constituindo não apenas a principal fonte de inspiração, como também a base de sua visão do mundo. Na primeira parte desta dissertação e colocada em relevo a filosofia de Bergson, que foi assimiladas reinterpretada por Lawrence e Hughes, servindo de fundamentação metafísica para a obra de ambos. Na segunda parte traçamos o paralelo existente entre o simbolismo animal de ambos os autores, demonstrando que as metáforas animais de Lawrence, que representam forças instintivas e intuitivas, estão também aparentes em Hughes, evidenciando sua habi1 idade em dar nova forma ao material em que se inspirou, bem como provando que maior compreensão do pensamento de Lawrence possibilita novos enfoques na poemática de Hughes.

When someone walks into an insurance company and wants to purchase life insurance, the insurance company has to consider an important question: How long will this client live? His date of death is not exactly predictable, so the insurer does not know exactly when the life insurance benefits will be payable. However, the insurer can use a model that can calculate human mortality. With this mortality model, probabilities of deaths at particular ages can be calculated. Rather than trying to figure out when a client dies, the convention in actuarial science is to phrase things in terms of survival models. There are popular survival functions that enable insurers to perform this calculation. With these functions, insurers are able to efficiently provide this service and ensure that life insurance will continue to be a thriving field of work. After we define basic notation and terms, we look at standard survival models. Then we consider a recently proposed model by Chi Heem Wong and Albert K. Tsui.

Green Building Evaluation System - Old Building Improvement (EEWH-RN) is an existing building for green building renewal target, so that the building can be provided to the user in an efficient, energy-saving and comfortable environment after several years of used, and it's helpful sustainable development of urban ecology. According to the statistics of the case data passed by the Green Building Mark, the number of improvements for old buildings in the hospital is very less, indicating that the hospital has a certain degree of difficulty in implementing green buildings. Since the signing of the "Green Health Hospital" Declaration in 2012, the China Medical University Hospital has continued to work hard to implement a healthy and friendly hospital environment. The Energy Management Committee has been set up, and the replacement projects have also been implemented in accordance with the proposed energy management measures and carbon green action. To this end, follow the government's implementation of the "Green Building Promotion Programme" to carry out the green building improvement target for existing buildings, and collect the actual energy consumption data from the hospital. The carbon emission benefit assessment method provided in the Green Building Assessment Manual is mainly used. The trial calculation was carried out by the performance-benefit method, and the feasibility evaluation of the green building application mark of the Lifu Medical Building was carried out by this study. The results of the research (1) The carbon reduction benefit of the lighting system improvement is 130970.25 kgCO2, (2) the carbon reduction benefit of the air conditioning system improvement is 19741.6 kgCO2/yr, and the (3) the carbon reduction benefit of the improved hot water system is 7262.82 kgCO2/yr, (4) The carbon reduction benefit of the improved renewable energy system is 7123.69 kgCO2/yr, and the percentage of carbon reduction benefits is 4.26%. The above results can be used as a reference and improvement target for future application for EEWH-RN certification.

Abstract “Life Resembling Games and Games Mirroring Life” is a work created by the author in the period from 2009 to 2011. Behind this work is the author’s keen interest and passion to games having developed early since childhood that drive the author to incorporate the elements of games and creative work into a perfect rendering once the author starts the graduate study. On top of that, the author finds many characteristics are commonly shared by games and life and demonstrate close ties between them; for example a Rubik’s cube game requires the player to bring the cubes with same color to each of the six faces of the cube to claim the game is completed, and the tricks behind the game are very much the same as those for real life - treating and interacting with others properly, nearly “all around”, by paying concern in a harmonious and thorough fashion, before you earn acceptance or even admiration from others. Hence, the author believes “Life Resembling Games and Games Mirroring Life” and the tricks and gist behind this is to be best expressed with a work to create. The present thesis aims to explore life with three series of works, namely “Various Forms of Life”, “Philosophical Thinking of Life” and “Goals of Life”; where firstly “Various Forms of Life” series were created on the basis of the personal experiences about games, the courses of life and what perceived; they voiced the touching feeling of life behind games through transformation in images; secondly “Philosophical Thinking of Life” series were out of the very recognition and realization of the author on the characteristics and rules of each game, the works tried to enable audience realize the meaning behind each game and its correlation with life by the layout of objects shown in the works; and finally “Goals of Life” series could traced back to the imagination in the world of games, through imagination one tries the best efforts to make any dream come true, thus makes something from nothing and turn things seemingly impossible into practically possible.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to measure the effects of the Leadership Inspiration
Facilitation Team (LIFT) program on the life effectiveness and locus of control of a
group of sixth grade students at Schultz Middle School. The participants consisted of 36
sixth grade students, ages 10 to 12 years, from a single public middle school. The
participants attended a two-day summer adventure-based ROPES camp.
The Review of Personal Effectiveness and Locus of Control (ROPELOC)
instrument was administered at the beginning (pre-test), the end (post-test), and six
months later (follow-up). The twelve domains of life effectiveness have been identified,
including active involvement, cooperative teamwork, leadership ability, open thinking,
quality seeking, self confidence, self efficacy, social effectiveness, stress management,
time efficiency, coping with change, and overall effectiveness. Two domains of locus of
control were identified: external and internal. Composite ROPELOC, subscale, and
gender data were all analyzed using t-tests of independent samples.
The analysis showed no significant improvement in participants? composite
ROPELOC score between the pre, post, and follow-up. However, there was an increase
between the pre and post, although the increase was not at a significant level. Significant increases in participants? scores were found in three of the 14 ROPELOC subscales:
cooperative teamwork, coping with change, and external locus of control. Significance
for cooperative teamwork was found between the pre-test and post-test. Significance for
coping with change and external locus of control was found between the pre-test and
follow-up, as well as between the post-test and follow-up using a significance of .05.
Gender was found to have made no difference in composite ROPELOC scores.
Participants in the LIFT summer program have increased self-perceptions of life
effectiveness at the immediate conclusion of the program. The degree of significance has
yet to be determined, and the length of significance is still in question. Researchers
maintain that positive youth development is a complex myriad of interventions. Positive
youth development has taken a proactive shift to promote healthy development outcomes
for all youth, in addition to reducing long-term negative outcomes of at-risk youth and
has emerged into its own as an independent field of study. In addition, positive youth
development is resulting from the combination of several factors that lead to the
development of more comprehensive models and the development of programs which
address multiple behaviors and that involve families and community.
