Full textAbstract:
The upsurge of cosmographical and geographical literature can be seen in humanist circles from the 14th century onwards. Beside chorography, the encomium of towns and cities was also a popular genre; some elements of ethnography, natural, economic and political geography were also built into the histography. A century later, this tendency reached Hungary and the social aspiration to presentation of the country appeared in Hungary too. Owing to these factors, chorography of Hungary was written by Miklós Oláh; humanist historians (for instance Antonio Bonfini) also incorporeted geographical digression into their work. Not only descriptions of Hungary, but some geographical descriptions of Transilvania were made in the second half of the 16th century; one of these was written by a 16 th century Viennese humanist polyhistor, Wolfgang Lazius. The purpose of this paper is to provide a description of the three textual variants of the manuscript of the Transylvania-description by Lazius, to explore their relationship to each other, and to establish their order of composition.

"Six Oboe Sonatas by Giuseppe Sammartini (Sibley Manuscript S. 189): With Critical Commentary and a Performing Edition of Sonata Five, a Lecture Recital, Together with Three Other Recitals." Thesis, North Texas State University, 1985. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc330905/.
Full textAbstract:
The lecture was given on October 7, 1985. The discussion dealt with the stylistic characteristics of six oboe sonatas and preparation of a performing edition of the fifth sonata by the eighteenth-century oboist and composer Giuseppe Sammartini. After Sammartini emigrated from Milan to London in the 1720s, he became the leading oboist in England. Both his playing and his compositions were praised by contemporaneous writers including Burney and Hawkins. Sammartini's oboe sonatas share stylistic traits with the work of his baroque contemporaries while looking forward to the emergence of the classical style. Five of the sonatas show derivation from the sonata da camera, while one is a clear example of the sonata da chiesa. As some of the few baroque sonatas composed specifically for the oboe, they represent important new additions to a limited repertoire. The performance practice problems encountered included realization of the unfigured bass accompaniment, correcting errors in the manuscript, and providing performance directions for tempos, dynamics, articulation, and ornamentation. In addition to the lecture recital, three other recitals for solo oboe were given. The first recital was given on November 7, 1983 and included works by Antonio Vivaldi, Ernst Eichner, Bohuslav Martina, and Heinrich von Herzogenberg. The second recital was given on April 16, 1984 and included works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Georg Phillip Telemann, Ruth Crawford Seeger, and August Klughardt. The third recital was given on September 16, 1985 and included works by Paul Hindemith, Jean Franpaix, and Gary Smart. All four recitals were recorded on magnetic tape and are filed, along with the written version of the lecture materials, as a part of the dissertation.

González, Bordas Hernán. "Les inscriptions latines de la Régence de Tunis à travers le témoignage de F. Ximenez." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015BOR30033.
Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l’activité épigraphique de F. Ximenez, administrateur de l’hôpital trinitaire de Tunis qui, entre 1720 et 1735, a entrepris plusieurs excursions dans la Régence. Ses ouvrages sont restés inédits pour la plupart et, bien qu’ils aient été dépouillés à l’occasion de la publication du huitième volume du Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum (CIL), une relecture s’avérait nécessaire. En effet, plusieurs des informations relatives aux inscriptions n’avaient pas été relevées, tandis que d’autres n’avaient pas été interprétées de manière satisfaisante. Ces informations concernent les caractéristiques des monuments épigraphiques, leur localisation ainsi que les conditions de leur découverte. Les erreurs d’interprétation faites lors du dépouillement des manuscrits de F. Ximenez ont mené à la création de doublons, mais ont conduit également à situer la provenance de certaines inscriptions loin du site qui leur correspond. Afin de mieux cerner les itinéraires empruntés par F. Ximenez pour déterminer les sites de provenance des inscriptions, il a été indispensable de consulter des cartes archéologiques tant anciennes que récentes et de se rendre sur le terrain afin de suivre les pas de cet auteur et ainsi reconstituer ceux de ses parcours qui apparaissaient comme les plus obscurs. De même, la relecture des manuscrits de F. Ximenez et la comparaison avec les textes des voyageurs qui lui étaient contemporains ont permis de reconstituer les stemmata de la tradition manuscrite des inscriptions. Il s’agissait d’analyser la transmission des informations entre les antiquaires de l’époque et de rendre à chacune des parties en cause ce qui lui était dû. Ces comparaisons nous ont mené à analyser les motivations et les intérêts de F. Ximenez relativement aux inscriptions anciennes. Qu’est-ce qui l’intéresse principalement dans les épigraphes ? Quels types de données collecte-t-il les concernant et quelles informations tente-t-il de déduire à partir de ces documents ? Comment en fait-il les relevés ? Ces aspects nous ont permis de mieux situer F. Ximenez au sein des antiquaires de son époque ; pour cela, il a d’ailleurs été nécessaire d’étudier la réception par quelques-uns de ces antiquaires. Quelle était l’opinion de ces savants le concernant ? Comment se sont-ils servis des informations que F. Ximenez a recueillies ?This thesis deals with the epigraphical activity of F. Ximenez, the administrator of the Trinitarians hospital at Tunis who, between 1720 and 1735, undertook several excursions in the interior of the Regency. Most of his work remains unpublished, and even and even after being dissected for the publication of the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum (CIL), a re-reading have been proved to be necessary. Indeed, a certain amount of the information on the inscriptions was yet to be discerned and a significant part extracted from it hasn’t been correctly interpreted. They concern the features of the epigraphical monuments as well as their localisations and the conditions of their discovery. The major blunders committed interpreting the manuscripts of F. Ximenez have created duplications of inscriptions and have let researchers think that some inscriptions came from what it tourned out to be the wrong places. In order to draw up the itineraries of F. Ximenez and to determine the sites of origin of the inscriptions it has been essential to consult the ancient and recent archeological maps, along with a field visit in the country in order to follow his steps, shedding light on the case of his more unclear journeys. This new reading of the manuscripts of F. Ximenez and the comparison with the works of the contemporary travellers have also allowed to recreate the stemmata of the manuscript tradition of inscriptions. The aim has been to analyse the transmission of information between the antiquarians of that time and give back to all of the parties involved what was due to each one of them. These comparisons have led us to analyse the reasons and the interests of F. Ximenez with regard to the ancient inscriptions. What's his main interest concerning the epigraphs? What kind of data does he gather from them and what kind of information does he try to deduce from them? How does he take the tracings? These approaches have allowed to place F. Ximenez within the antiquarians of his time, but in order to do this it has been essential to study the reception which some of them have made of the manuscripts of F. Ximenez. What was the opinion of those scholars on F. Ximenez? How did they use the data he has gathered? We have attempted to answer these as well as other questions in this thesis

Full textAbstract:
La Bible anglo-normande est une traduction de la Bible du latin vers l’anglo-normand. Cette traduction est disponible dans deux manuscrits médiévaux du XIVe siècle (manuscrit de Paris et manuscrit de Londres). La thèse propose l’édition critique du livre de l’Exode en utilisant le manuscrit de Londres comme manuscrit principal et celui de Paris comme varia. La thèse est composée d’une introduction générale qui présente les manuscrits, suivie d’une présentation linguistique qui présente les aspects linguistiques propres à la langue anglo-normande d’un point de vue morphologique, morphosyntaxique et syntaxique. Ensuite, les principes d’édition présentent la méthodologie suivie pour l’édition des deux manuscrits, ainsi que des réflexions philologiques générales concernant la graphie, la phonétique et la codicologie. Enfin, l’édition du texte de l’Éxode est accompagnée d’un glossaire qui présente le lexique remarquable (anglo-normand, latin, moyen anglais) et d’une bibliographie. L’édition espère pouvoir augmenter les connaissances concernant la langue anglo-normande et, dans une moindre mesure, moyen anglaise (en particulier les dictionnaires et les manuels), ainsi que le corpus de la Bible anglo-normandeThe Anglo-Norman Bible is a translation of the Bible from Latin to Anglo-Norman. There are two medieval translations (14th century) available, one is the Paris manuscript and the second is the London manuscript. This critical edition of the book of Exodus is based primarily on the London manuscript and the Paris manuscript is referred to for alternative readings. First, the thesis includes a general introduction presenting the manuscripts. Then, there is a linguistic analysis presenting the grammatical aspects specific to the Anglo-Norman language concerning morphology, morphosyntax and syntax. Additionally, the rules of editing present the methodology used for editing these manuscripts and some insights are provided about philology concerning writing, phonetic and codicology. Finally, the edition of the Exodus text, a glossary (presenting the interesting words in Anglo-Norman, Latin, Middle English), and a bibliography have been included. This critical edition aims to contribute to the understanding of the Anglo-Norman and Middle English languages (particularly existing dictionaries and manuals), making the Anglo-Norman Bible’s Exodus book more accessible

Lorrain, Agnès. "Théodoret de Cyr, Interpretatio in Epistulam ad Romanos : édition, traduction et commentaire." Thesis, Paris 4, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA040179.
Full textAbstract:
L’In epistulas Pauli de Théodoret de Cyr (Ve siècle) est le plus ancien commentaire en grec des épîtres de Paul conservé dans sa langue originale. Cette thèse propose l’édition critique du Prologue et de l’In Romanos, à partir de l’examen de tous les manuscrits de la tradition directe ainsi que d’un manuscrit de chaîne. Elle offre aussi la première traduction de cette œuvre en français. Alors que de nombreux travaux se sont penchés sur les principes et les méthodes de l’exégèse antiochienne de l’Ancien Testament, celle du Nouveau Testament est encore assez mal connue. À travers différentes études thématiques, on tente de caractériser la démarche exégétique propre à ce corpus en analysant les éléments structurant le discours ainsi que certaines particularités sémantiques : on met ainsi au jour les lignes de force de l’interprétation à l’œuvre dans un commentaire dont la distance par rapport au texte commenté est minimale. Par ailleurs, on met en lumière le travail de l’exégète par rapport à la source chrysostomienne. Enfin, on étudie les articulations entre exégèse et polémique – discours sur les Juifs, cible marcionite, échos des controverses trinitaires et christologiques – en cherchant des rapprochements avec la tradition exégétique et théologique en ce qui concerne l’argumentation scripturaire. L’analyse de la démarche argumentative aussi bien que la recherche des sources permet de mettre en relief les richesses d’une œuvre qui, à première lecture, semble être une simple paraphrase du texte bibliqueTheodoret of Cyrrhus’s In epistulas Pauli (5th c.) is the oldest surviving Greek commentary that has been preserved in the original language. This dissertation presents a critical edition of Theodoret’s prologue and commentary on the Epistle to the Romans based on all the extant direct manuscripts as well as one catena manuscript. It also offers the first translation of the work into the French language. While many scholars have studied the principles and methods of Antiochene exegesis for the Old Testament, the methods used for the New Testament remain largely unexamined. Through different thematic studies, the dissertation explores the exegetical approach which deals with and is shaped by this latter corpus specifically. By analyzing the elements that structure its discourse as well as its semantic tendencies, it sets out to reveal the central features of Theodoret’s exegetical approach despite the minimal distance which he maintains between the Biblical text and his commentary. Special attention is also paid to Theodoret’s use of the works of John Chrysostom in his own writing. Finally, the dissertation explores the relationship between Theodoret’s biblical exegesis and the rich tradition of scriptural quotation both in a historical and theological context. The main focus is on his polemical discourses on the Jews and the Marcionites and also in his writings on the Trinitarian and Christological controversies. Through a careful analysis of the exegete’s approach to scriptural argumentation and his use of sources, we hope to reveal the richness and versatility of a work which, at first glance, appears to be little more than a simple paraphrase of the biblical text

Full textAbstract:
On s’accorde à penser que « le don de la parole » est d’une importance capitale au Moyen Âge mais les études sur les voeux, les serments et les promesses en littérature française médiévale réduisent souvent l’enquête à des engagements ayant des référents historiques (e. G. Serment vassalique, serment judiciaire) ou utilisés en tant que procédés littéraires (e. G. Serment ambigu ou équivoque, don contraignant ou contraint). Le but de la recherche est de fournir une étude systématique et interdisciplinaire sur le sujet dans le Cycle du Conte du Graal, commencé dans la deuxième moitié du XIIe s. Par Chrétien de Troyes pour Philippe de Flandres et terminé dans la première moitié du XIIIe s. Par Manessier pour Jeanne de Flandres. Les Parties I-II mettent en évidence la dualité des notions de voeu et de serment, le voeu (« engagement envers la divinité ») étant votum ou devotio et le serment (« engagement devant la divinité ») étant sacramentum ou juramentum, de même que la complexité de la notion de promesse, représentée par prometre, promesse et covent, covenant (« don de la parole »), par fiance, (a)fiancier, et creance, (a)creanter (« don de la foi »), ou par afier et plevir. La Partie III présente les formules de serment en si (e. G. Si m’aït Diex) et en se (e. G. Se Diex m’aït) en tant que conventions utilisées dans le dialogue ou dans le polylogue pour marquer les intentions, conflictuelles ou consensuelles, du locuteur envers l’allocutaire. Enfin, les Parties IV-V traitent de la « promesse en blanc » et de la « promesse avec intimation à la divinité » en tant que motifs narratifs et des promesses des deux principaux héros, Perceval et Gauvain, en rapport avec la structure narrative du cycleScholars agree that “the gift of one’s word” is of prime importance in the Middle Ages but studies on vows, oaths and promises in French medieval literature often narrow the focus to items with historical referents (e. G. Feudal oath, judicial oath) or used as literary devices (e. G. Ambiguous or equivocal oath, don contraignant or contraint). The aim of this study is to present the reader with a systematical and interdisciplinary approach to the topic in the Conte du Graal Cycle, begun in the second half on the 12th c. By Chrétien de Troyes at the bequest of Philip of Flanders and ended in the first half of the 13th c. By Manessier at the bequest of Joanna of Flanders. Parts I-II stress the duality of the notions of vow and oath, a vow (“a promise made to a divinity”) being a votum or a devotio and an oath (“a promise made before a divinity”) being a sacramentum or a juramentum, as well as the complexity of the notion of promise, represented by prometre, promesse and covent, covenant (“the gift of one’s word”), fiance, (a)fiancier, and creance, (a)creanter (“the gift of one’s faith”), or afier and plevir. Part III presents the oath formulas with si (e. G. Si m’aït Diex) and with se (e. G. Se Diex m’aït) as conventions used in the dialogue or in the polylogue to denote the intentions, conflictual or consensual, of the speaker toward the addressee. Finally, Parts IV-V deal with the “blank promise” and the “promise with an intimation to the divinity” as narrative motifs and with the promises of the two main heroes, Perceval and Gauvain, in relation to the narrative structure of the cycle

Full textAbstract:
This work exposes, evaluates and summarises academic and professional career of Jan Nepomuk Vaclav Zimmermann (1788-1836), who worked as a scriptor and a censor. It reviews his censoring and book-examining skills across all fields of book culture. It investigates and evaluates whether contemporary critical testimonies depict Zimmermann's rather negative character rightfully and accurately or not. Zimmermann devoted his time to examining and censoring Czech books and also Hebrew books. As a scriptor at University library, he was responsible for collecting, archiving and organizing manuscripts into catalogues. These catalogues have been filed in National Library for many years. Palaeographical analysis of the catalogues will bring in new facts concerning Zimmermann's autorship. This thesis also presents a list of Zimmermann's work with its historical critical evaluation and compares it to the recent research. Keywords: Jan Zimmermann, Manuscript Catalogues, University Library, Censorship, Censoring Hebrew Literature, Censoring Czech literature, of the Cross with the Red Star, Reformation of Catholic Church under the reign of Joseph II

Full textAbstract:
The Metric Epistles of Albertino Mussato (1261-1329) are a collection of 20 compositions in Latin verse (of which, 12 in elegiac couplets, 8 in hexameters, for a total of 1,570 verses) composed between 1309 and 1326 and addressed to different recipients. The list of recipients includes friends of the author and representatives of the Paduan political and intellectual élite of the early 14th century such as the judges Rolando da Piazzola, Giovanni da Vigonza and Paolo da Teolo, the notary Zambono d’Andrea and Marsilio Mainardini; masters of grammar and rhetoric such as the Venetian Giovanni Cassio, Bonincontro from Mantua and Guizzardo from Bologna; religious personalities such as the Dominican friars Benedetto and Giovannino da Mantova, respectively lecturer and professor of theology at the Studium Generale of the convent of S. Agostino in Padua; collective recipients, such as the College of Artists and fellow citizens of Padua. After an editio princeps was printed in Venice in 1636 on the basis of a now lost manuscript, a critical edition of the Epistles is published here for the first time, including the complete corpus of the texts in the light of their entire manuscript tradition. The texts are accompanied by an Italian translation and a detailed commentary, which mainly aims to bring to light and analyse the dense intertextuality of Mussato’s poem (in particular classical Latin sources), reconsidering the cultural background of the author and his contemporaries in the context of the so-called ‘Paduan prehumanism’ and an ideal dialogue with Dante’s coeval biographical and literary experiences.

Full textAbstract:
The varied career of Adam Easton (c.1330—1397) led him from Norwich Cathedral Priory to Oxford, Avignon and Rome. Not only a monk of the Benedictine Order, he was also a scholar, theologian, diplomat and cardinal, and his work reflects the breadth of this multifaceted background. This volume presents recent research on Easton’s oeuvre, his diplomacy and the books that accompanied him on his travels. Amongst the works addressed in this volume are Easton’s Defensorium ecclesiastice potestatis, his Defensorium Sanctae Birgittae and his Office for the Feast of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary. Further evidence is also offered on his testimony during the Great Schism, on the dating of his copy of De pauperie Salvatoris, while two reassessments are made of his likeness, including his sepulchral monument at S. Cecilia in Trastevere in Rome and the Lutterworth wall painting. Finally, a catalogue of Easton’s important manuscript collection is also provided.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this essay is to identify patterns of textual variation that affect both the source text(s) and its translations. Starting with the substitution of the word ‘spare’ with ‘square’ in the ‘red-room’ episode, textual variations are analysed in a selection of English editions of Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre published by prestigious publishing houses such as Collins, Harper, Oxford, Norton Critical, and Penguin―from the second half of the nineteenth-century to the most recent editions, including e-books (Amazon) and *.txt files (Project Gutenberg). Variations in English editions are compared against the original Brontë’s manuscript (1847) and tracked down in eleven Italian translations.

Abstract S is contained in one manuscript of the thirteenth century (Paris. suppl. gr. 352). But there is also one fourteenth-century manuscript (Paris. gr. 1630) that contains what appears in the main to be a rearranged excerpt from S, generally known as B. S has 114 epigrams, B 53 of which 9 are absent from S. Coincidence in error where they overlap removes any possibility of doubt: B is an excerpt from a fuller version of S. Its additional poems, consisting mainly of oracles and problems, have been discussed above. In general, however, the order of the poems in B is too much disturbed to render it of any independent value for study of the poems preserved in S. But it does prove what should already have been inferred from the structure of S itself: that S is incomplete.

Abstract The First Novgorod Chronicle is attested in two recensions, one ‘older’ and the other ‘younger’. It is an intriguing puzzle—one that has not been sufficiently recognized as such—that the two recensions are fundamentally similar throughout the three centuries of text they share, yet occasionally offer different readings. To elaborate, it will be useful to give some background about the two recensions. The older recension is a single manuscript, the Synodal codex (hereafter, ‘Novg,s’). The main part of this manuscript begins in medias res in 1o16 and reports events up to 1330. The extant manuscript has twenty-one numbered quires of eight leaves each. The first of these is numbered 17, implying that the initial sixteen quires have been lost. There is a gap between 1 273 and 1 298. It had long been assumed that the manuscript was written in three hands, but it has recently been argued that the first two hands are really one, and that the whole manuscript is actually written in two hands.

Full textAbstract:
Investigation of the corrosion performance of friction materials (FMs) plays a central role in: a) evaluating the corrosion resistance of braking pads [1]; b) elucidating galvanic couplings among different braking system components [2]; c) designing FMs with a negligible sticking effect upon coupling with a cast iron brake disc [3]. Corrosion performance can be evaluated by measuring proper electrochemical figures of merit [4] such as the: 1) corrosion potential (Ecorr); 2) corrosion current (Icorr); and 3) galvanic current (Igc); in agreement with a suitable test specification. Nevertheless, particular attention should be paid when measuring these quantities since several experimental details can lead to inaccurate or misleading results. At this regard, the work clarifies the effect of several test parameters (e.g. scan rate, stabilization time, potential ranges, etc.) on the measure of the corrodibility of a reference friction material. Most common errors and their effect on the electrochemical figures of merit are discussed, with the final aim of providing a solid guideline for designing braking pads with a reduced corrodibility.

Nowadays, when typing on PC excerpt or transcription of manuscript, we make the same kinds of mistakes, being still at scribe’s type of copying and citing. We can avoid mistakes by using HTR programs for starting SDE-s and using them to copy-paste the part of text we need.With new approaches, close to „old“ Likhachov’s textology, and with digital born editions this field is getting reshaped.

Full textAbstract:
The main objective of this manuscript is to devise an objective, scientific and empirical tool for assessing the ‘life cycle cost’ of any digitalization project in an Exploration and Production (E&P) Company vise-a-vie its ‘projected benefits’. This provides a ready-made empirically proven tool for the CIO or Project Manager of the E&P Company to decide on the ‘financial model’ for an upcoming digital project during the conceptualization stage when there's a long debate amidst the project team or the user indenting group regarding CAPEX or OPEX or Hybrid Model for the digital project implementation. With the advent of cloud platform and SaaS platform, various exciting avenues have opened up for companies to implement digitalization solution in OPEX model where the upfront investment is very less. Moreover, most of the R&D in this domain around the industry is keeping cloud servers in mind resulting in breakthrough digitalization innovation opportunities for E&P companies at a very nominal cost. However, there is a different narrative as well which signifies the advantages of owning the system(s). This manuscript has tried to settle this long-standing debate. This manuscript develops a table with a total scoring out of 100 marks with weighted average given to the different factors or parameters. This is a multi-dimensional scoring system developed keeping various factors and scenarios in mind. This also takes into factorization whether the digitalization project under discussion is of transformational nature or incremental nature. This also has a scenario to pick from exploration / drilling / reservoir/well/production/pipeline or complete Digital oilfield project scenario which leads to a different customized scoring pattern. The user has to select various scenarios and factors in the checklist of two pages according to which the scoring pattern is decided for them leading to a customized scoring, hence decision-making tool for them. Apart from the checklist, user has to enter the estimated project cost over lifecycle and range of gain in the checklist too.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Monitoring and surveillance (M&S) is one of the key requisites for assessing the effectiveness and success of any onshore and offshore CCS/CCUS project. It will help understand, track, monitor, and predict the injectant plume migration, flow paths, and breakthrough times. The M&S helps in quantifying sequestered injected gas and any inadvertent leakage. It provides a good understanding of the remaining oil saturation (ROS) and its distribution in the reservoir. In this manuscript, a comprehensive monitoring and surveillance (M&S) program is developed and discussed for the onshore and offshore CCUS/CCS projects. A range of monitoring techniques are available for the CO2 geological storage in onshore and offshore reservoirs. The advanced M&S plan incorporates conventional, advanced, and emerging novel technologies for wellbore and inter-well measurements. Both deep focused (providing surveillance of the reservoir and deeper overburden) and shallow-focused (providing surveillance of the near seabed, seabed and water column). These include advanced time-lapse pulsed neutron, resistivity, diffusion logs, and bore-hole gravity measurements, cross-well geophysical measurements, water and gas tracers, geochemical, compositional and soil gas analyses, and 4D seismic and surface gravity measurements. Results from monitoring and surveillance technologies provide a better understanding of the reservoir dynamics within the subject area. The results can be used to refine the reservoir simulation model and fine tune its parameters. This paper reviews some proven best practices and draws examples from ongoing projects and related novel technologies being deployed for onshore and offshore reservoirs. It will then look at the new horizon for M&S technologies for onshore and offshore CCS and CCUS projects.

Abstract Reduction of gas turbines carbon emissions relies on a strategy for fueling the engines with pure or blended hydrogen. The major technical challenges to solve are i) the adjustments to the engine and in particular the combustion chamber and ii) a series of issues to solve to guarantee safe operations. In fact, compared to natural gas, hydrogen fueling implies higher risks of explosion in case of leak in the turbine enclosure and a more careful design of the ventilation system. Thus, a deeper comprehension of hydrogen leak scenarios is needed to adjust the safe design strategy of the enclosure. To this aim, a series of numerical investigations was carried out to understand how different methane-hydrogen blends (from pure methane to pure hydrogen) behave when leaking from a pipeline with fuel pressure that span from 1.5 to 4.5 MPa. The different fuel blends leaks in form of under-expanded jets were studied under different cross-flow ventilation conditions, with ventilation velocity spanning from 0 m/s to 5m s. When compared to pure methane, the outcome is a three times longer penetration distance for pure hydrogen axisymmetric flammable clouds, whereas in cross-flow conditions a more complex three-dimensional behavior was found, potentially opening a safety-related concerns discussed in the manuscript.

Full textAbstract:
A typical procedure for a remnant fatigue life (RFL) assessment is stated in the BS-7910 standard. The aforementioned standard provides two different methodologies for estimating RFL; these are: the S-N curve approach and the crack growth laws (i.e. using Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) principles) approach. Due to its higher accuracy, the latter approach is more commonly used for RFL assessment in the offshore industry. Nevertheless, accurate prediction of RFL using the deterministic LEFM approach (stated in BS-7910) is a challenging task, as RFL prediction is afflicted with a high number of uncertainties. Furthermore, BS-7910 does not provide any recommendation in regard to handling the uncertainty in the deterministic RFL assessment process. The most common way of dealing with the aforementioned uncertainty is to employ Probabilistic Crack Growth (PCG) models for estimating the RFL. This manuscript explains the procedure for addressing the uncertainty in the RFL assessment of process piping with the help of a numerical example. The numerically obtained RFL estimate is used to demonstrate a calculation of inspection interval.

Full textAbstract:
Over the last quarter of a century, since the 1990 US Clean Air Act Amendments were enacted the gaseous sulfur emission, in the form of sulfur dioxide, have been reduced [1] by a factor of 4, by switching to lower sulfur content coals, installation of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sorbents or switching altogether to natural gas as a fuel. Penetration of alternative energy generation also has had a positive impact. However, current emissions of sulfur dioxide are still voluminous, amounting to 3,242,000 short tons annually in the USA [2]. As wet flue gas desulfurization is both real-estate- and capital-intensive, infurnace dry sorbent injection has been considered over the years to be a viable alternative. However there is still uncertainty on the best selection of the sorbents for particular coals and furnace operating conditions. This is particularly the case when it is economically attractive for the power-plant operator to burn locally-sourced high-sulfur coal, such as the case of Illinois bituminous coals. This manuscript presents experimental results on the reduction of sulfur oxide emissions from combustion of a high-sulfur content pulverized bituminous coal (Illinois #6 Macoupin). The coal particles were in the size range of 90–125 μm and were blended with dry calcium-, sodium-, potassium-, and magnesium-containing powdered sorbents at different proportions. The alkali/S molar ratios were chosen to be at stoichiometric proportions (Ca/S = 1, Mg/S = 1, Na2/S = 2, and K2/S = 2) and the effectiveness of each alkali or alkali earth based sorbent was evaluated separately. Combustion of coal took place in a drop-tube furnace, electrically-heated to 1400 K under fuel-lean conditions. The evolution of combustion effluent gases, such as NOx, SO2 and CO2 were monitored and compared among the different sorbent cases. The use of these sorbents helps to resolve the potential of different alkali metals for effective in-furnace sulfur oxide capture and possible NOx reduction. It also assesses the effectiveness of various chemical compounds of the alkalis, such as oxides, carbonates, peroxides and acetates.

Full textAbstract:
The bandwidth and the efficiency of fiber optic communication systems exceed these of electrical cable systems. However, presently, we are far from realizing the potential performance of optical networks. Electronic devices and systems connected to optical networks may reach bit-rates on the order of 1 Gb/s. In contrast, the maximum bit-rate of a photonic network may exceed 1 Tb/s, limited by the performance of the optical fiber. The three order-of-magnitude mismatch between fiber and device capacity can be used to increase the speed, security, and reliability in the data transmission. Several all-optical methods exploiting this bit-rate mismatch are being investigated for controlling data streams in communication channels to utilize this bandwidth more efficiently. These approaches may include mutual conversion of the space-to-time, space-to-frequency, spatial frequency-to-time and spatial frequency-to-temporal frequency. The possibility of converting optical image or image-like parallel data into the optical fiber has been demonstrated by using a pair of moving gratings to introduce spatial-to-temporal encoding1. In this manuscript we introduce a holographic method that allows parallel-to-serial (i.e., space-to- time) optical signal conversion by encoding spatial frequency spectrum of the parallel optical signals onto the temporal frequency spectrum of optical pulses. Moreover, by combining our technique with existing serial-to-parallel conversion methods2,3 we demonstrate the possibility of transmitting parallel optical signals over long distance optical fiber network.

Full textAbstract:
More than 60% of plant viruses are positive-strand RNA viruses that cause billion-dollar losses annually and pose a major threat to stable agricultural production, including cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) that infects numerous vegetables and ornamental trees. A highly conserved feature among these viruses is that they form viral replication complexes (VRCs) to multiply their genomes by hijacking host proteins and remodeling host intracellular membranes. As a conserved and indispensable process, VRC assembly also represents an excellent target for the development of antiviral strategies that can be used to control a wide-range of viruses. Using CMV and a model virus, brome mosaic virus (BMV), and relying on genomic tools and tailor-made large-scale resources specific for the project, our original objectives were to: 1) Identify host proteins that are required for viral replication complex assembly. 2) Dissect host requirements that determine viral host range. 3) Provide proof-of-concept evidence of a viral control strategy by blocking the viral replication complex-localized phospholipid synthesis. We expect to provide new ways and new concepts to control multiple viruses by targeting a conserved feature among positive-strand RNA viruses based on our results. Our work is going according to the expected timeline and we are progressing well on all aims. For Objective 1, among ~6,000 yeast genes, we have identified 96 hits that were possibly play critical roles in viral replication. These hits are involved in cellular pathways of 1) Phospholipid synthesis; 2) Membrane-shaping; 3) Sterol synthesis and transport; 4) Protein transport; 5) Protein modification, among many others. We are pursuing several genes involved in lipid metabolism and transport because cellular membranes are primarily composed of lipids and lipid compositional changes affect VRC formation and functions. For Objective 2, we have found that CPR5 proteins from monocotyledon plants promoted BMV replication while those from dicotyledon plants inhibited it, providing direct evidence that CPR5 protein determines the host range of BMV. We are currently examining the mechanisms by which dicot CPR5 genes inhibit BMV replication and expressing the dicot CPR5 genes in monocot plants to control BMV infection. For Objective 3, we have demonstrated that substitutions in a host gene involved in lipid synthesis, CHO2, prevented the VRC formation by directing BMV replication protein 1a (BMV 1a), which remodels the nuclear membrane to form VRCs, away from the nuclear membrane, and thus, no VRCs were formed. This has been reported in Journal of Biological Chemistry. Based on the results from Objective 3, we have extended our plan to demonstrate that an amphipathic alpha-helix in BMV 1a is necessary and sufficient to target BMV 1a to the nuclear membrane. We further found that the counterparts of the BMV 1a helix from a group of viruses in the alphavirus-like superfamily, such as CMV, hepatitis E virus, and Rubella virus, are sufficient to target VRCs to the designated membranes, revealing a conserved feature among the superfamily. A joint manuscript describing these exciting results and authored by the two labs will be submitted shortly. We have also successfully set up systems in tomato plants: 1) to efficiently knock down gene expression via virus-induced gene silencing so we could test effects of lacking a host gene(s) on CMV replication; 2) to overexpress any gene transiently from a mild virus (potato virus X) so we could test effects of the overexpressed gene(s) on CMV replication. In summary, we have made promising progress in all three Objectives. We have identified multiple new host proteins that are involved in VRC formation and may serve as good targets to develop antiviral strategies; have confirmed that CPR5 from dicot plants inhibited viral infection and are generating BMV-resistance rice and wheat crops by overexpressing dicot CPR5 genes; have demonstrated to block viral replication by preventing viral replication protein from targeting to the designated organelle membranes for the VRC formation and this concept can be further employed for virus control. We are grateful to BARD funding and are excited to carry on this project in collaboration.

Exploring mechanisms involved in grape bud dormancy: Large-scale analysis of expression reprogramming following controlled dormancy induction and dormancy release. United States Department of Agriculture, December 2002. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2002.7587232.bard.
Full textAbstract:
The timing of dormancy induction and release is very important to the economic production of table grape. Advances in manipulation of dormancy induction and dormancy release are dependent on the establishment of a comprehensive understanding of biological mechanisms involved in bud dormancy. To gain insight into these mechanisms we initiated the research that had two main objectives: A. Analyzing the expression profiles of large subsets of genes, following controlled dormancy induction and dormancy release, and assessing the role of known metabolic pathways, known regulatory genes and novel sequences involved in these processes B. Comparing expression profiles following the perception of various artificial as well as natural signals known to induce dormancy release, and searching for gene showing similar expression patterns, as candidates for further study of pathways having potential to play a central role in dormancy release. We first created targeted EST collections from V. vinifera and V. riparia mature buds. Clones were randomly selected from cDNA libraries prepared following controlled dormancy release and controlled dormancy induction and from respective controls. The entire collection (7920 vinifera and 1194 riparia clones) was sequenced and subjected to bioinformatics analysis, including clustering, annotations and GO classifications. PCR products from the entire collection were used for printing of cDNA microarrays. Bud tissue in general, and the dormant bud in particular, are under-represented within the grape EST database. Accordingly, 59% of the our vinifera EST collection, composed of 5516 unigenes, are not included within the current Vitis TIGR collection and about 22% of these transcripts bear no resemblance to any known plant transcript, corroborating the current need for our targeted EST collection and the bud specific cDNA array. Analysis of the V. riparia sequences yielded 814 unigenes, of which 140 are unique (keilin et al., manuscript, Appendix B). Results from computational expression profiling of the vinifera collection suggest that oxidative stress, calcium signaling, intracellular vesicle trafficking and anaerobic mode of carbohydrate metabolism play a role in the regulation and execution of grape-bud dormancy release. A comprehensive analysis confirmed the induction of transcription from several calcium–signaling related genes following HC treatment, and detected an inhibiting effect of calcium channel blocker and calcium chelator on HC-induced and chilling-induced bud break. It also detected the existence of HC-induced and calcium dependent protein phosphorylation activity. These data suggest, for the first time, that calcium signaling is involved in the mechanism of dormancy release (Pang et al., in preparation). We compared the effects of heat shock (HS) to those detected in buds following HC application and found that HS lead to earlier and higher bud break. We also demonstrated similar temporary reduction in catalase expression and temporary induction of ascorbate peroxidase, glutathione reductase, thioredoxin and glutathione S transferase expression following both treatments. These findings further support the assumption that temporary oxidative stress is part of the mechanism leading to bud break. The temporary induction of sucrose syntase, pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase indicate that temporary respiratory stress is developed and suggest that mitochondrial function may be of central importance for that mechanism. These finding, suggesting triggering of identical mechanisms by HS and HC, justified the comparison of expression profiles of HC and HS treated buds, as a tool for the identification of pathways with a central role in dormancy release (Halaly et al., in preparation). RNA samples from buds treated with HS, HC and water were hybridized with the cDNA arrays in an interconnected loop design. Differentially expressed genes from the were selected using R-language package from Bioconductor project called LIMMA and clones showing a significant change following both HS and HC treatments, compared to control, were selected for further analysis. A total of 1541 clones show significant induction, of which 37% have no hit or unknown function and the rest represent 661 genes with identified function. Similarly, out of 1452 clones showing significant reduction, only 53% of the clones have identified function and they represent 573 genes. The 661 induced genes are involved in 445 different molecular functions. About 90% of those functions were classified to 20 categories based on careful survey of the literature. Among other things, it appears that carbohydrate metabolism and mitochondrial function may be of central importance in the mechanism of dormancy release and studies in this direction are ongoing. Analysis of the reduced function is ongoing (Appendix A). A second set of hybridizations was carried out with RNA samples from buds exposed to short photoperiod, leading to induction of bud dormancy, and long photoperiod treatment, as control. Analysis indicated that 42 genes were significant difference between LD and SD and 11 of these were unique.
