Abstract:
This paper exploits an effective approach to overcome the breakdown limitations of traditional galvanic isolators based on chip-scale isolation barriers, thus achieving a very high isolation rating (i.e., compliant with the reinforced isolation requirements). Such an approach is based on radio frequency (RF) planar coupling between two side-by-side co-packaged chips. Standard packaging along with proper assembling techniques can be profitably used to go beyond 20-kV surge voltage without using expensive or exotic isolation components. As a proof of concept, a bidirectional data transfer system based on RF planar coupling able to withstand an isolation rating as high as 25 kV has been designed in a low-cost standard 0.35-µm CMOS technology. Experimental measurements demonstrated a maximum data rate of 40 Mbit/s using a carrier frequency of about 1 GHz. The adopted approach also guarantees a common mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 250 kV/µs, which is a first-rate performance in view of next generation galvanic isolators for wide-bandgap power semiconductor devices, such as gallium nitride high-electron mobility transistors (GaN HEMTs) and silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs.

Abstract:
Satisfying the mobile traffic demand in next generation cellular networks increases the cost of energy supply. Renewable energy sources are a promising solution to power base stations in a self-sufficient and cost-effective manner. This paper presents an optimal method for designing a photovoltaic (PV)-battery system to supply base stations in cellular networks. A systematic approach is proposed for determining the power rating of the photovoltaic generator and battery capacity from a technical and economical point of view in order to minimize investment cost as well as operational expenditure, while the power autonomy of the PV-battery system is maximized in a multi-objective optimization framework. The proposed method is applied to optimally size a photovoltaic-battery system for three cases with different availability of solar power to investigate the effect of environmental conditions. Problem-solving using the proposed approach leads to a set of solutions at different costs versus different levels of power autonomy. According to the importance of each criterion and the preference of decision-makers, one of the achieved solutions can be selected for the implementation of the photovoltaic-battery system to supply base stations in cellular networks.

Abstract:
The emergence of the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) aims to facilitate the next generation of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications by combining smart vehicles and the internet to improve traffic safety and efficiency. On the other hand, mobile edge computing (MEC) technology provides enormous storage resources with powerful computing on the edge networks. Hence, the idea of IoV edge computing (IoVEC) networks has grown to be an assuring paradigm with various opportunities to advance massive data storage, data sharing, and computing processing close to vehicles. However, the participant’s vehicle may be unwilling to share their data since the data-sharing system still relies on a centralized server approach with the potential risk of data leakage and privacy security. In addition, vehicles have difficulty evaluating the credibility of the messages they received because of untrusted environments. To address these challenges, we propose consortium blockchain and smart contracts to accomplish a decentralized trusted data sharing management system in IoVEC. This system allows vehicles to validate the credibility of messages from their neighboring by generating a reputation rating. Moreover, the incentive mechanism is utilized to trigger the vehicles to store and share their data honestly; thus, they will obtain certain rewards from the system. Simulation results substantially display an efficient network performance along with forming an appropriate incentive model to reach a decentralized trusted data sharing management of IoVEC networks.

Abstract:
Rationale, aims and objective: Measuring nurse caring may provide empirical evidence to assist clinicians and administrators in making decisions. The aim of the present study was to develop a new scale, called the CARE-Italy, grounded in the Italian culture, for measuring nurses’ caring behaviours.Methods: A mixed method approach was applied in developing the instrument. The item generation and scale development were performed through a qualitative phenomenological approach and a focus group with a panel of experts. The provisional instrument was then administered to a convenience sample of 439 nurses and then questionnaire scaling and association analysis were performed. A dual scaling analysis of successive categories was performed to identify preferences on the rating scale. An item selection based on item-scale correlations and item weights was performed. Subjects’ mean scores were computed and standardized in a 100-point scale.Results: The 20 caring behaviours perceived by nurses to be the most important ones constitute the final version of the CARE-Italy questionnaire. They concern patients’ surveillance, professional relationships with patients, satisfying patients’ and family members’ practical and psychological needs, team consultation and nurses’ emotions.Conclusions: A relational and paternalistic caring approach by Italian nurses seems to be suggested. The next step of the research project will be the validation process of the CARE-Italy questionnaire with a Likert scale measuring the occurrence of the 20 caring behaviours in daily practice.

Abstract:
Objective:To define the clinical phenotype and natural history of sporadic adult-onset degenerative ataxia and to identify putative disease-causing mutations.Methods:The primary measure of disease severity was the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA). DNA samples were screened for mutations using a high-coverage ataxia-specific gene panel in combination with next-generation sequencing.Results:The analysis was performed on 249 participants. Among them, 83 met diagnostic criteria of clinically probable multiple system atrophy cerebellar type (MSA-C) at baseline and another 12 during follow-up. Positive MSA-C criteria (4.94 ± 0.74, p < 0.0001) and disease duration (0.22 ± 0.06 per additional year, p = 0.0007) were associated with a higher SARA score. Forty-eight participants who did not fulfill MSA-C criteria and had a disease duration of >10 years were designated sporadic adult-onset ataxia of unknown etiology/non-MSA (SAOA/non-MSA). Compared with MSA-C, SAOA/non-MSA patients had lower SARA scores (13.6 ± 6.0 vs 16.0 ± 5.8, p = 0.0200) and a slower annual SARA increase (1.1 ± 2.3 vs 3.3 ± 3.2, p = 0.0013). In 11 of 194 tested participants (6%), a definitive or probable genetic diagnosis was made.Conclusions:Our study provides quantitative data on the clinical phenotype and progression of sporadic ataxia with adult onset. Screening for causative mutations with a gene panel approach yielded a genetic diagnosis in 6% of the cohort.ClinicalTrials.gov registration:NCT02701036.

Abstract:
Regional transmission and distribution challenges has evolved and changed a lot in recent years. Four contradictory influences increasingly affected the operations of Slovenian and Croatian electricity systems. Regional electricity systems experienced increasing support of RES integration to meet the EU targets, a lower electricity consumption due to the economic crisis, a growing lack of centralized electricity production for electric system support and the high interconnectivity between the neighboring control zones. TSOs and DSOs observed growing network overvoltage issues as well as a decrease in secondary reserve capacities. Such situation starts to impact national and regional renewable integration targets affecting the security of supply at European level. SINCRO.GRID joint investment project addressed the above-mentioned issues in a sustainable manner. Such cross-border systemic approach will bring synergetic benefits. It will enable an acceptable level of security of operation for at least the next ten years hosting levels of RES in line with the trends foreseen to reach the 2030 targets safely. The project is going to integrate new active elements in the transmission and distribution grids. It leans on the following main pillars: deployment of six compensation devices, deployment of advanced dynamic thermal rating (DTR) systems, deployment of electricity storage systems, integration of distributed renewable generation (DG) and deployment of a virtual cross-border control center (VCBCC). A key aspect of the SINCRO.GRID project lies in the synergy brought by the simultaneous innovative deployment of a portfolio of mature technology-based solutions bring high benefits and positive externalities for the region and European Union.

Abstract:
This is a paper updating the paper I wrote on this topic for BSERT in issue 1 volume 1 in 1980. The original paper set out the causes of failure in building design as being due to various issues such as an inadequate brief, lack of data, poor communication, inadequate analysis or synthesis, quirks of human behaviour which could all contribute. Systematic appraisal – now referred to as post-occupancy evaluation – of buildings in use provides feedback which helps us to understand why theory and practice do not always agree and also gives evidence for improved building economics. It concluded that we have to involve users more in the design of buildings, and for the next generations, we need a much broader based education of building designers. This paper continues the theme by considering the latest methods of measurement and assessment which provide feedback data for sustainability but focusing more on health and wellbeing rating assessments. Practical application: Our professions need more interaction across sectors and to foster a transdisciplinary approach. This means more communication with other professional kinsmen from the health and wellbeing sectors in order to make valuable interventions in the building design process. This paper updates the 1980 paper from the first edition of BSER&T that sets out the causes of failure in building design as being due to various issues such as an inadequate brief, lack of data, poor communication, inadequate analysis or synthesis, quirks of human behaviour which could all contribute. The paper determines that the need for feedback in order to improve building performance and provide data to develop existing guidelines, codes and standards is as valid now as it was in 1980 but the way we do this has changed.

Abstract:
ObjectiveNext-generation sequencing (NGS) was applied in molecularly undiagnosed asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic hyperCKemia to investigate whether this technique might allow detection of the genetic basis of the condition.MethodsSixty-six patients with undiagnosed asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic hyperCKemia, referred to tertiary neuromuscular centers over an approximately 2-year period, were analyzed using a customized, targeted sequencing panel able to investigate the coding exons and flanking intronic regions of 78 genes associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies, rhabdomyolysis, and metabolic and distal myopathies.ResultsA molecular diagnosis was reached in 33 cases, corresponding to a positive diagnostic yield of 50%. Variants of unknown significance were found in 17 patients (26%), whereas 16 cases (24%) remained molecularly undefined. The major features of the diagnosed cases were mild proximal muscle weakness (found in 27%) and myalgia (in 24%). Fourteen patients with a molecular diagnosis and mild myopathic features on muscle biopsy remained asymptomatic at a 24-month follow-up.ConclusionsThis study of patients with undiagnosed hyperCKemia, highlighting the advantages of NGS used as a first-tier diagnostic approach in genetically heterogeneous conditions, illustrates the ongoing evolution of molecular diagnosis in the field of clinical neurology. Isolated hyperCKemia can be the sole feature alerting to a progressive muscular disorder requiring careful surveillance.

Abstract:
Currently the system development of aircraft engineering concentrates its focus on the reduction of energy consumption more than ever before. As a consequence, the efficiency of subsystems inside the aircraft is highlighted. According to previous investigations the simplification/unification of conventional multifaceted board energy systems by means of electric power management is the most promising way concerning aircraft global efficiency improvement. The main aim of the present work was to optimize a multi-device, heavy duty EHA-System by introducing of a comprehensive perspective. In order to achieve the final, non-plus-ultra improvement level, the attributes of architecture, hardware and operation method were combined in an interactive manner, whereas particular attention has been paid to the mutual enhancing influences. The maximum reduction of losses, the minimizing of consumption and weight optimization can be achieved concurrently when the physical coherences between the involved subsystems are understood and their hidden potentials are exploited. This can only be achieved in one way and the detail follows: The most effective way to reduce both manufacturing effort and weight is to introduce a multiple-allocation philosophy. The highest reliability possible can be achieved by novel cascade-nested system architecture and strict restraining of the control logic. By employing an ultra-low-loss hardware concept, the energy efficiency can be maximized at a necessary minimum own weight. Last but not least, possibly the most important cognition is that an intelligent operation method will improve the actual system and influence the entire system positively and with a lower effort. The final conclusion is that the only and reasonable way to achieve an ultimate optimized solution of an actuation system is an all-encompassing consideration. Eventually it was to recognize that the final result is nothing but ultimate lightweight architecture, i.e. a non-plus-ultra solution.
Gegenwärtig konzentriert sich die Technologieentwicklung für Flugzeuge auf die Reduktion des Energieverbrauchs mehr denn je zuvor. Hierfür ist die Effizienz der an Bord befindlichen, nicht propulsiven Subsysteme neben der Wirkungsgradverbesserung der Triebwerke von zentraler Bedeutung. Laut vorangegangenen Untersuchungen und Studien ist die Vereinfachung bzw. Vereinheitlichung der Vielfalt der konventionellen Bordenergiesysteme durch ein adäquates Energiemanagement unter Verwendung von Elektrizität der aussichtsreichte Weg zur Effizienzverbesserung auf der Gesamtflugzeugebene. Durch die Elektrifizierung wurden die einzelnen Geräte zwar zuverlässiger und energieeffizienter als je zuvor aber gleichzeitig erheblich schwerer, sodaß ein signifikanter Verlust an Nutzlasten auf Gesamtflugzeugebene hervorgerufen wird. Das Hauptziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es, ein Schwerlast-EHA-System mit mehrfachen Betätigungseinheiten durch Einführung von umfassenden Perspektiven zu optimieren. Durch Einführung der sog. ganzheitlichen Leichtbauweise demonstriert die Arbeit, wie das Subsystem mit mehreren Endgeräten ultimativ optimiert werden kann, ohne Abstriche an Gewichtsbilanz u/o Kompromiß mit der Energieeffizienz zu machen. Um eine wahrhaftige Optimierung, d.h. die Erreichung des ultimativen, Nonplusultra-Verbesserungslevels zu erreichen, wurden die Systemarchitektur, die Hardware und die Operationsmethode interaktiv kombiniert, wobei die besondere Aufmerksamkeit auf die interaktiven, zur Verbesserung führenden Einflüsse gelegt wurde. Die Minimierung des Energieverbrauchs und die ultimative Gewichtsoptimierung gleichzeitig können erreicht werden, wenn die physikalischen Zusammenhänge zwischen den involvierten Subsystemen verstanden und ihre verborgenen Potentiale ausgenutzt werden. Der einzige und vernünftige Weg zur Erreichung der ultimativen Optimierung eines Betätigungssystems ist eine allumfassende Betrachtung, also eine ganzheitliche Betrachtungs- bzw. Vorgehensweise.

Abstract:
In 1996 Primus launched their expedition stove Multifuel, the first stove that could run on liquified petroleum gas (LPG), white gas, kerosene and aviation fuel. The multi-fuel stoves are part of the Primus expedition range of equipment. The line was designed and built to perform in extreme conditions. The expedition stoves have been roughly the same since then. Therefore Primus wanted to investigate what the future looks like for these stoves. The expedition segment is very important to the company as it reflects their heritage. Primus had an internal goal of updating the expedition line within the next few years, which was the main reason why this master thesis project arose. The purpose of the project was to investigate the usability of expedition line stoves and understand the user needs to find a direction for the next generation of expedition stoves. The goal was to deliver product development guidelines that Primus can make use of in the continued work as well a well-motivated concept and recommendations for future development based on these guidelines. The work has been carried out applying an adapted lead user approach, meaning some chosen users have been involved throughout the whole development process. Extensive research was made including interviews and user studies. The qualitative data was analysed with inspiration from the Gioia framework and resulted in product development guidelines including insights from the analysis, a user-centered re-segmentation of Primus’ expedition stove line and identification of whitespace. It became evident that an expedition gas stove should be included in the segment as professional users show great will to use gas and the need for multi-fuel is low. Based on the guidelines and user involvement a validated product concept was brought forth. The Primus Altitude Ti is an expedition gas stove in titanium with a flame spreading laminar flow burner providing silent and fuel efficient cooking. The stove has a regulated valve at the burner and an ON/OFF valve at the canister allowing to run the stove in liquid feed mode which is beneficial in cold conditions.
År 1996 lanserade Primus sitt expeditionskök Multifuel, vilket var det första köket som kunde användas med gasol, kemiskt ren bensin, fotogen och flygbränsle. Multifuel och ytterligare två flerbränslekök är idag en del av företagets expeditionssegment, som designades för att prestera under extrema förhållanden. Expeditionsköken har inte förändrats avsevärt sedan de togs fram, vilket ledde till att Primus ville undersöka hur framtiden för dessa kök ser ut. Eftersom expeditionsköken symboliserar företagets arv är det ett viktigt segment för dem. Primus satte upp ett internt mål att uppdatera expeditionssegmentet inom de närmsta åren, vilket var huvudorsaken till att detta examensarbete utfördes. Syftet med projektet var att undersöka användarvänligheten hos expeditionsköken och förstå användarnas behov för att på så sätt besluta om en riktning för nästa generations expeditionskök. Målet med arbetet var att leverera både riktlinjer för kommande produktutveckling och ett välmotiverat produktkoncept som är baserat på de framtagna riktlinjerna. Under arbetets gång har en anpassad variant av lead user-metoden använts, vilket betyder att ett antal utvalda användare med värdefulla egenskaper har involverats genom arbetsprocessen. Omfattande undersökningar har gjorts genom bland annat intervjuer och användarstudier. Den kvalitativa datan analyserades med inspiration av Gioia-metodologin och resulterade i en överlämning med riktlinjer för produktutveckling. Detta innefattar insikter från analysen, en användarcentrerad omsegmentering av Primus expeditionssegment samt en identifiering av luckor på marknaden. Det blev tydligt att ett expeditionsgaskök borde inkluderas i segmentet eftersom professionella användare visade stor vilja att använda gas och behovet för flerbränslekök var litet. Baserat på riktlinjerna togs ett produktkoncept fram. Primus Altitude Ti är ett expeditionsgaskök mestadels bestående av titan med en bred brännare som använder sig av tekniken för ett laminärt flöde, vilket ger en tyst och bränsleeffektiv användning. Köket har en steglös ventil vid brännaren samt en ventil med två lägen, på och av, vid gasbehållaren som tillåter drift av köket med gasbehållaren uppochned vilket är fördelaktigt vid kalla förhållanden.

Amgen is one of the world's leading independent biotechnology companies and competes globally to advance important medicines in a highly competitive marketplace. Biologics manufacturers such as Amgen have traditionally invested in costly, large-scale stainless steel infrastructure to support the production of biologic medication. However, more recently, changes in the economics, such as the need to deploy less-capital intensive biomanufacturing plants faster, and advances in the technology, such as process-intensification (i.e., getting more protein from each cell), have created both incentives and pressures for smaller-scale, single-use, and modular production technologies. These incentives include greater flexibility, shorter timelines for construction / rapid deployment of new facilities, and reduced costs as well as physical and environmental footprint.
To prepare for this changing business environment, Amgen must develop a manufacturing strategy that can enable the production of high quality products with significant reduction in timelines, cost, and reduced impact. To do so, Amgen is investigating a handful of these new production technologies, known as next generation manufacturing technologies, and attempting to understand their applicability in their future manufacturing model. There is a need for a transparent and standard methodology for evaluating and deploying new technologies in the manufacturing network. This study aims to address this issue and enable speed, rigor, and efficiency of decisionmaking through the use of a structured framework for selection and deployment of next generation technologies. Through literature review and engagement with Amgen experts, this study defines a next generation manufacturing technology evaluation framework.
This framework involves a hybrid, multi-attribute set of metrics that are broadly categorized into economic, environmental, and operational assessment areas. The framework is then applied to assess the economic, operational, and environmental implications of deploying single use technologies in drug substance manufacturing as a test of concept. An assessment along the three areas helps to identify that single use technologies, namely single use bags due to their cost and environmental footprint, may not always be the optimum substitute for all existing process technology. Instead, a hybrid approach, mixing new single use technology with existing stainless steel infrastructure, may help to reduce variable cost and carbon footprint of the process.
When the framework and this proposed hybrid approach was at an Amgen site, a potential savings of up to $ 1 M per year was identified as well as the elimination of up to thousands of liters in clean water losses, and up to 400x reduction in the carbon footprint of the process. Lastly, the assessment framework is applied as a management tool in the assessment of next generation drug product filling technology to demonstrate how the framework can be used to enable rapid decision-making related to future manufacturing scenarios.

Abstract:
Biofuels, including ethanol and biodiesel, are important components of energy policy in the U.S. and abroad. There is a long history of ethanol production from corn (maize) in the United States and from sugarcane in Brazil. However, there has been a push for greater use of next-generation biofuels (including those derived from cellulosic feedstocks) to mitigate many of the environmental and potential food system impacts of large scale biofuel production. Farmer willingness to grow biomass crops and ensuring adequate feedstock supply are two important challenges impeding large scale commercialization of next-generation biofuels. The costs of transporting bulky, low density biomass will be substantial. Consequently, in the near term, the economic success of next-generation biofuels will hinge on the supply of locally available biomass. As such, agricultural contracts are expected to be an important tool in overcoming the feedstock acquisition challenge. The broad objective of this study is to understand the effect of contracting for non-food energy crops (cellulosic feedstocks) on the agricultural landscape via the displacement of commodity (food) crops on productive cropland. We develop an analytical framework for evaluating the design and use of two different contract structures for securing cellulosic feedstock in a representative supply chain with a biorefinery and farmer. We study the dynamics of scarce land and indirect competition from commodity market production on a biorefinery's equilibrium pricing strategy and the resultant supply of cellulosic biomass. And we consider its sensitivity to various production characteristics and market conditions. We develop a method for quantifying the biorefinery's tradeoff between profit margins and competing for land in order to secure the requisite feedstock for biofuel production. And we characterize the loss of efficiency in the decentralized system, relative to a vertically integrated system, that can be attributed to the need to compete for the farmer's scarce land resource versus that which results from the biorefinery's desire to make a profit. Then we extend our framework to consider multi-year contracts for biomass production and evaluate the importance of land quality, yield variability and contract structure on a farmer's willingness to accept a contract to produce cellulosic feedstock as well as the resulting impact on the agricultural landscape through the displacement of commodity crops. Using switchgrass production in Tennessee as a case study, we develop feedstock supply curves for each contract structure considered and evaluate the conditions and contract prices at which land devoted to various field crops would be displaced by switchgrass based on field trials of switchgrass production in Tennessee and recent USDA data on crop prices and production.

Typically a company's second largest controllable expense, corporate travel affects many employees at Boeing. A challenge when implementing improvements in the travel and expense system, which is actually comprised of a system of systems, is the coordination of various solutions to ensure improvements in one area do not adversely affect the efficiency of other areas. Various systems along with the people, policies, and processes used to provide services to travelers must be coordinated both inside and outside Boeing in order for overall travel operations to function properly. The intent of this project is to establish a systems-based architecture for Boeing's Next Generation Travel System. This thesis proposes re-designing the Boeing travel system using an enterprise architecting framework to select a future state architecture for a service organization. The analysis recommends a supplier integrated "off-the-shelf' software solution, employing the software as a service business model. Under this model the supplier is paid per transaction completed in the system; adoption of this metric aligns the system to reduce re-work costs, increase first-time pass quality, and improve usability. Additionally, new supplier software tools will allow the Boeing travel organization to transition from a process-focused to a more knowledge-focused service team.

Abstract:
The University of California at San Diego (UCSD), under a Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Office of Research and Development (R&D) grant, is developing a system for high-speed and non-contact rail defect detection. A prototype using an ultrasonic air-coupled guided wave signal generation and air-coupled signal detection, paired with a real-time statistical analysis algorithm, has been realized. This system requires a specialized filtering approach based on electrical impedance matching due to the inherently poor signal-to-noise ratio of air-coupled ultrasonic measurements in rail steel. Various aspects of the prototype have been designed with the aid of numerical analyses. In particular, simulations of ultrasonic guided wave propagation in rails have been performed using a Local Interaction Simulation Approach (LISA) algorithm. The system’s operating parameters were selected based on Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves, which provide a quantitative manner to evaluate different detection performances based on the trade-off between detection rate and false positive rate. The prototype based on this technology was tested in October 2014 at the Transportation Technology Center (TTC) in Pueblo, Colorado, and again in November 2015 after incorporating changes based on lessons learned.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Asphaltene deposition has been a critical flow assurance challenge and chemical treatment with continuous asphaltene inhibitors injection has been the go-to approach for operators to preemptively tackle this challenge. Development of the right inhibitor chemistry and dosage is challenging and critical. A smart, automated process for screening numerous asphaltene inhibitor formulations based on Design of Experiment and High Throughput Experimentation method has been developed and is discussed in this work. Asphaltene inhibitor formulations with distinct base chemistries, boosters, and solvent packages were blended in various ratios to encompass a large chemical and formulation space with the automated blending station of the High Throughput Experimentation (HTE) setup. These formulations were then dosed into a multitude of crude oil samples produced from different regions of the world at constant dosage to represent a uniform and comparable test fluid matrix. Dispersion state of asphaltene clusters within dosed oil samples, in their native state, were then evaluated using the HTE-ADAPT techniques to generate thousands of performance data points. Furthermore, the efficiency of top performing formulations was then cross validated using standard optical transmittance and deposition-based techniques to gauge performance. Four main pillars of the HTE technique are automation, miniaturization, parallelization, and computational design. Each of these pillars contribute towards enhancing the current test method into a more accurate, agile, and quicker technique. Through automation, the overall accuracy of formulations blending as well as performance efficiency measurement is increased. With miniaturization, the resource consumption of raw materials and more importantly crude oil is considerably reduced. For this work, each formulation required less than 300 ^l of oil per measurement. Parallelization resulted in completing the test evaluation at a rate of 600 evaluations every 4 hours. These results can then be analyzed through the computational design and analytics software to identify the top performing formulations along with predicting the optimum chemical formulation space which can lead to maximum performance efficiency. The selected formulations were subsequently blended in bigger laboratory scale and their efficacy was cross-checked with both dispersion (optical transmittance and thermoelectric methods) and deposition (flow loop setup) based techniques against a benchmark asphaltene inhibitor product, known to work successfully in many fields having asphaltene instability related issues. Through this process, several new asphaltene inhibitor formulations were discovered that outperformed the benchmark blend. Automated HTE technology provides a new dimension to asphaltene inhibitor development work that can carry out performance evaluation of numerous formulations at tremendous speed and minimum crude oil volume. With this technique, one can quickly adapt to the changing requirements of asphaltene inhibitor and its dosage with varying crude oil composition, gas-to-oil ratio, water cut, or any operational change affecting overall asphaltene stability.

Abstract:
Abstract Due to the increasing bypass ratios of modern engines, the fan stage is increasingly becoming the dominant source of engine noise. Accordingly, it is becoming more and more important to develop not only efficient but also quiet fan stages. In this paper the noise emission of a fan for an aero-engine with a bypass ratio of 19 is reduced within a multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) by means of an hybrid noise prediction method while at the same time optimizing the aerodynamic efficiency. The aerodynamic performance of each configuration in the optimization is evaluated by stationary Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations. These stationary flow simulations are also used to extract the aerodynamic excitation sources for the analytical fan noise prediction. The resulting large database of the optimization provides new insights into which extent an MDO can contribute to the design of both quiet and efficient fan stages. In addition to that the hybrid approach of numerical flow solutions and analytical description of the noise sources enables to understand the noise reduction mechanisms. In particular, the influence of rotor blade loading on the aerodynamic efficiency and the noise sources as well as the potential of configurations with a comparatively low number of outlet guide vanes (OGV) is explored. The acoustic results of selected configurations are confirmed by unsteady RANS simulations.

Abstract:
This paper presents an engine sizing and cycle selection study of ultra high bypass ratio engines applied to a subsonic commercial aircraft in the N+2 (2025) timeframe. NASA has created the Environmentally Responsible Aviation (ERA) project to serve as a technology transition bridge between fundamental research (TRL 1–4) and potential commercial application (TRL 7). Specifically, ERA is focused on subsonic transport technologies that could reach TRL 6 by 2020 and can be integrated into an advanced vehicle concept to simultaneously meet the ERA project metrics for noise, emissions, and fuel burn. An important variable in exploring the technology trade space is the selection of the optimal engine cycle for use on the advanced aircraft. Previous literature demonstrated the cycle optimization using a design of experiments (DOE) to explore the engine cycle design space for a pre-defined technology package. However, since the optimal engine cycle is dependent upon the specific technology package, this process would have to be repeated to ensure optimal performance for each technology package. With more than 80 technologies to be analyzed, the combinatorial space of technology packages is enormous. As a result, executing a DOE to find the optimum engine cycle for each technology package is infeasible. To address this issue, it is proposed to use surrogate models that encompass the engine cycle and technology design space to enable fast and accurate optimization of the engine cycle for any given technology package. This paper describes the generation and analysis of surrogate models used for technology assessment and cycle optimization of an ultra high bypass geared turbofan engine architecture. The first study in the paper shows that a single surrogate model can be used to accurately simulate both a technology and cycle design space. To demonstrate the proposed surrogate modeling approach, the cycle design space for three different technology packages was analyzed. This study demonstrated that when an optimal cycle is found within the constrained interior of a design space, the surrogate modeling approach is quite accurate. The study also established that the surrogate models can also be used to assess potential cycles at the boundaries or even outside of the region for which they were trained.

Full text
Abstract:
The feasibility of a drag management device that reduces engine thrust on approach by generating a swirling outflow from the fan (bypass) nozzle is assessed. Deployment of such “engine air-brakes” (EABs) can assist in achieving slower and/or steeper and/or aero-acoustically cleaner approach profiles. The current study extends previous work from a ram air-driven nacelle (a so-called “swirl tube”) to a “pumped” or “fan-driven” configuration, and also includes an assessment of a pylon modification to assist a row of vanes in generating a swirling outflow in a more realistic engine environment. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and aero-acoustic measurements in an anechoic nozzle test facility are performed to assess the swirl-flow-drag-noise relationship for EAB designs integrated into two NASA high-bypass ratio (HBPR), dual-stream nozzles. Aerodynamic designs have been generated at two levels of complexity: (1) a periodically spaced row of swirl vanes in the fan flowpath (the “simple” case), and (2) an asymmetric row of swirl vanes in conjunction with a deflected trailing edge pylon in a more realistic engine geometry (the “installed” case). CFD predictions and experimental measurements reveal that swirl angle, drag, and jet noise increase monotonically, but approach noise simulations suggest that an optimal EAB deployment may be found by carefully trading any jet noise penalty with a trajectory or aerodynamic configuration change to reduce perceived noise on the ground. Constant speed, steep approach flyover noise predictions for a single-aisle, twin-engine tube-and-wing aircraft suggest a maximum reduction of 3 dB of peak tone-corrected perceived noise level (PNLT) and up to 1.8 dB effective perceived noise level (EPNL). Approximately 1 dB less maximum benefit on each metric is predicted for a next-generation hybrid wing/body aircraft in a similar scenario.

Abstract:
The purpose of gene therapy is to introduce foreign genetic material into host cells to either supplement aberrant genes or to endow additional biological functions. To date, however, there has been only modest progress towards this goal, mainly due to the lack of safe, effective and broadly applicable delivery methods. Functional nanodiamonds (NDs) are rapidly emerging as promising platform carriers for next-generation therapeutics due to their innate biocompatibility, scalability, precise particle distribution, high surface area-to-volume ratio, near-spherical aspect ratio, and easily adaptable carbon surface for bioagent attachment. NDs have been functionalized with a range of therapeutics, proteins, antibodies, DNA, polymers, and other assorted biological agents. Furthermore, NDs are stable and dispersible in water, making them a promising and clinically important modality in improving the efficacy of the treatment of diseases and even some cancers at the molecular level. Mitochondrial function (MTT) and luminescent ATP production assays have demonstrated that NDs are not toxic to a wide variety of cell types. In this study, we functionalized NDs with amine groups via either covalent attachment of (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane or surface immobilization of 800 Da low molecular weight polyethyleneimine (LMW PEI800) for plasmid DNA delivery. The latter delivery approach combines complementary characteristics of PEI800 and NDs to create a hybrid material that exhibits the high transfection efficiency of high molecular weight PEI, but without the inherent high cytotoxicity.

Full text
Abstract:
Indexing video data is essential for providing content based access. In this paper, we consider how database technology can offer an integrated framework for modeling and querying video data. As many concerns in video (e.g., modeling and querying) are also found in databases, databases provide an interesting angle to attack many of the problems. From a video applications perspective, database systems provide a nice basis for future video systems. More generally, database research will provide solutions to many video issues even if these are partial or fragmented. From a database perspective, video applications provide beautiful challenges. Next generation database systems will need to provide support for multimedia data (e.g., image, video, audio). These data types require new techniques for their management (i.e., storing, modeling, querying, etc.). Hence new solutions are significant. This paper develops a data model and a rule-based query language for video content based indexing and retrieval. The data model is designed around the object and constraint paradigms. A video sequence is split into a set of fragments. Each fragment can be analyzed to extract the information (symbolic descriptions) of interest that can be put into a database. This database can then be searched to find information of interest. Two types of information are considered: (1) the entities (objects) of interest in the domain of a video sequence, (2) video frames which contain these entities. To represent these information, our data model allows facts as well as objects and constraints. We present a declarative, rule-based, constraint query language that can be used to infer relationships about information represented in the model. The language has a clear declarative and operational semantics. This work is a major revision and a consolidation of [12, 13].
