Abstract:
The biogenesis of membrane proteins with a single transmembrane (TM) segment is well understood. However, understanding the biogenesis and membrane assembly of membrane proteins with multiple TM segments is still incomplete because of the complexity and diversity of polytopic membrane proteins. In an attempt to investigate further the biogenesis of polytopic membrane proteins, I used the human MDR3 P-glycoprotein (Pgp) as a model polytopic membrane protein and expressed it in a coupled cell-free translation/translocation system. I showed that the topogenesis of the C-terminal half MDR3 Pgp molecule is different from that of the N-terminal half. This observation is similar to that of the human MDR1 Pgp. The membrane insertion properties of the TM1 and TM2 in the N-terminal half molecule are different. The proper membrane anchorage of both TM1 and TM2 of the MDR3 Pgp is affected by their C-terminal amino acid sequences, whereas only the membrane insertion of the TM1 is dependent on the N-terminal amino acid sequences. The efficient membrane insertion of TM3 and TM5 of MDR3 Pgp, on the other hand, requires the presence of the putative TM4 and TM6, respectively. The TM8 in the C-terminal half does not contain an efficient stop-transfer activity. These observations suggest that the membrane insertion of putative TM segments in the human MDR3 Pgp does not simply follow the prevailing sequential event of the membrane insertion by signal-anchor and stop-transfer sequences. These results, together with my previous findings, suggest that different isoforms of Pgp can be used in comparison as a model system to understand the molecular mechanism of topogenesis of polytopic membrane proteins.

Abstract:
We hypothesized that a combination of multiple tasks consisting of suppression of blinking and sustaining maximum muscle force in pinching serves as a simple screening test for declines in attention functions and investigated the relationships of suppression of blinking, the number of blinks during measurement of pinch strength, and attention functions. The subjects were 27 young individuals (10 males and 17 females with a mean age of 31.9±13.8 years) and 12 elderly individuals (2 males and 10 females with a mean age of 73.3±5.6 years). Part A and Part B of a Japanese version of the Trail Making Test (TMT) were used to evaluate attention functions. The subjects were instructed before the measurement of pinch strength to stop blinking for 5 seconds, and the number of blinks was counted. Pinch strength was measured for 5 seconds, and its changes were recorded. No instructions were given in the first measurement of pinch strength, but the second measurement was performed after the instruction of “Do not blink” (with restriction of blinking). TMT-Part A with restriction of blinking took more time in the group that blinked than in the group that did not blink (41.1±16.4 vs. 25.6±8.7, p<0.01). The subjects who required more time to execute TMT-Part A tended to be more likely to blink even under restriction. Examination of the presence or absence of blinking under restriction before the measurement of pinch strength is considered to be potentially useful as a simple screening test for attention functions.

Abstract:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a kind of sleep disorders which is associated with cognitive impairment, either independently or by its strong association with metabolic syndrome. OSA affected attention and executive functions. Since the diagnosis of OSA had limitation, the assessment of OSA risk level by using STOP-BANG Questionnaire instrument in common population is important. This was a cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the effect of OSA risk level determined based on STOP-BANG Questionnaire score to attention and executive functions in 82 subjects. The demographic and clinical characteristics data obtained were age, gender, level of education, hypertension, body mass index (BMI), neck circumference, OSA risk level, and attention and executive functions. Attention function was assessed by using Forward Digit Span and Trailmaking Test A (TMT-A) instruments, while executive function was assessed by using Backward Digit Span and Verbal Fluency Test instruments. The demographic and clinical characteristics data showed significant higher proportion of male gender, large neck circumference, and hypertension in high risk OSA group. The OSA risk level significantly impaired the executive function but did not impaired attention function.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT During infection, Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) particles localize transiently to the cytosolic surfaces of mitochondria. To understand the molecular basis and significance of this localization, we analyzed the targeting and membrane insertion properties of the viral proteins. ORF1 of BNYVV RNA-2 encodes the 21-kDa major coat protein, while ORF2 codes for a 75-kDa minor coat protein (P75) by readthrough of the ORF1 stop codon. Bioinformatic analysis highlighted a putative mitochondrial targeting sequence (MTS) as well as a major (TM1) and two minor (TM3 and TM4) transmembrane regions in the N-terminal part of the P75 readthrough domain. Deletion and gain-of-function analyses based on the localization of green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions showed that the MTS was able to direct a reporter protein to mitochondria but that the protein was not persistently anchored to the organelles. GFP fused either to MTS and TM1 or to MTS and TM3-TM4 efficiently and specifically associated with mitochondria in vivo. The actual role of the individual domains in the interaction with the mitochondria seemed to be determined by the folding of P75. Anchoring assays to the outer membranes of isolated mitochondria, together with in vivo data, suggest that the TM3-TM4 domain is the membrane anchor in the context of full-length P75. All of the domains involved in mitochondrial targeting and anchoring were also indispensable for encapsidation, suggesting that the assembly of BNYVV particles occurs on mitochondria. Further data show that virions are subsequently released from mitochondria and accumulate in the cytosol.

Abstract:
The membrane assembly of polytopic membrane proteins is a complicated process. Using Chinese hamster P-glycoprotein (Pgp) as a model protein, we investigated this process previously and found that Pgp expresses more than one topology. One of the variations occurs at the transmembrane (TM) domain including TM3 and TM4: TM4 inserts into membranes in an Nin-Cout rather than the predicted Nout-Cin orientation, and TM3 is in cytoplasm rather than the predicted Nin-Coutorientation in the membrane. It is possible that TM4 has a strong activity to initiate the Nin-Cout membrane insertion, leaving TM3 out of the membrane. Here, we tested this hypothesis by expressing TM3 and TM4 in isolated conditions. Our results show that TM3 of Pgp does not have de novo Nin-Cout membrane insertion activity whereas TM4 initiates the Nin-Cout membrane insertion regardless of the presence of TM3. In contrast, TM3 and TM4 of another polytopic membrane protein, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), have a similar level of de novo Nin-Cout membrane insertion activity and TM4 of CFTR functions only as a stop-transfer sequence in the presence of TM3. Based on these findings, we propose that 1) the membrane insertion of TM3 and TM4 of Pgp does not follow the sequential model, which predicts that TM3 initiates Nin-Cout membrane insertion whereas TM4 stops the insertion event; and 2) “leaving one TM segment out of the membrane” may be an important folding mechanism for polytopic membrane proteins, and it is regulated by the Nin-Cout membrane insertion activities of the TM segments.

Abstract:
FR173657, LF16,0335, and LF16,0687 are nonpeptide antagonists, endowed with high affinity and selectivity for the human kinin B2 receptor. The kinin B2 receptor belongs to the family of G-protein-coupled receptors with seven transmembrane (TM) helices. In the present study, we aimed, through computer-assisted modeling and mutagenesis, to identify residues in the human B2 receptor (hB2R) amino acid sequence that are involved in nonpeptide antagonist binding in order to build up experimental data as a first step towards a molecular model of nonpeptide ligands binding site. Fourteen amino acid residues within the TM segments were mutated to alanine. The wild type and mutant receptors were stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (dhfr–) cells and tested for their ability to bind agonist ([3H]bradykinin) and peptide antagonist ([3H]MEN11270) radioligands. The affinity of nonpeptide ligands was determined by heterologous competition experiments using the above radioligands. We found that some mutations in TM2 (W86A) and TM7 (Y295A, N297A) impair the binding affinity of the three nonpeptide antagonists. On the other hand, some mutated residues in TM3 (S117A) and TM6 (W256A) reduce the affinity of LF16,0335 and LF16,0687 only. Results are discussed in order to build up a hypothesis for the likely different interactions of various nonpeptide ligands with the B2 receptor.Key words: binding, bradykinin B2 receptor, G-protein-coupled receptor, mutagenesis, nonpeptide.

Abstract:
In the context of the finitely repeated Prisoner's Dilemma with the possibility of cooperating or defecting each time, the strategy tit-for-tat (TFT) consists in cooperating the first time and copying the strategy previously used by the opponent the next times. Assuming random pairwise interactions in a finite population of always defecting individuals, TFT can be favoured by selection to go to fixation following its introduction as a mutant strategy. We deduce the condition for this to be the case under weak selection in the framework of a general reproduction scheme in discrete time. In fact, we show when and why the one-third rule for the evolution of cooperation holds, and how it extends to a more general rule. The condition turns out to be more stringent when the numbers of descendants left by the individuals from one time-step to the next may substantially differ. This suggests that the evolution of cooperation is made more difficult in populations with a highly skewed distribution of family size. This is illustrated by two examples.

Abstract:
After the presidential election, which inevitably causes conflict and division, there has always been a discussion of national unity. A consolidation committee with a similar name has been established and operated for tax purposes. However, there is no true definition of national unity. This study determined and defined the meaning of true national unity based on constitutional studies and analyzed the specific method of national unity using Axelrod's TFT strategy. After the presidential election, the unification discussion that pursues the abstract good without justice can be used as an indulgence. Until now, integration or national integration has not been properly defined in academia. The researcher defines national unity after the presidential election as “immediate punishment and forgiveness based on the rule of law against the anti-constitutional forces (which pursued private rather than national interest)”. “Immediate punishment and forgiveness based on the rule of law against the anti-constitutional forces (pursuing private rather than national interest)” consists of two major steps. The first step is immediate punishment, and the second step is inclusion. Punishment based on arbitrary interpretation would be political retaliation, but punishment through the rule of law against a political group that did not direct public or national interest is not political retaliation. As much as punishing innocent people, it is also wrong to have no punishment for a political group that does not pursue national interests. No one says mixing clean and dirty water is integration. True integration starts with turning dirty water into clean water.

Abstract:
This thesis report exhibits an integrated Electromagnetic/Circuit level technique to analyze the time modulated arrays. I restate this work in commercial software which was already developed in CAD domain i.e. combining the exact harmonic balanced based analysis of non-linear switches with the electromagnetic characterization of the radiating elements. In this commercial software I try to perform a full-wave co-simulation to compute the radiated far-field envelope to show the array behavior. Simulation in this new software allows a precise evaluation of several non-linear performance aspects of the radiating system, such as power usage capabilities and the switch modulation frequency boundary. Secondly I also discuss a TMA wireless power transfer technique which is based on two step procedure. In this case I carry out the full wave co-simulation in this new commercial software to analyze the antenna array with modulated non-linear feeding network. Schottky-diode based network provide proper modulated RF excitations of the array elements. Therefore, the array architecture is extremely simple, if compared to phased arrays, only simple control circuit board.

In this thesis, we combine the process technology of power device and thin film transistor to fabricate the low temperature polycrystalline silicon lateral double diffusion metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (LTPS LDMOSFET). And use the step implantation and excimer laser annealing technique to improve the device performance. At last, the electric characteristics and breakdown voltage of LTPS power device were measured using the semiconductor parameter analyzer and high-voltage measurement system. We also studied and compared excimer laser with SPC process to analyze the feasibility of fabrication the power device using the low temperature process and thin film transistor technology. The results show the ON/OFF current ratio after laser treatment with the magnitudes of 5.98×104 and 2.65×105 improved about 105 times than the magnitudes of SPC process at Vds=10 V and Vds=30 V. Additionally, the breakdown voltage after laser treatment is achieved to about 260 V when the drift region length is 35 μm and in step doping condition. In Ldrift=15 μm and step doping condition, the specific on-resistance after laser treatment is about 6.9 Ω-cm2 which is lower about 105 times than 7.6×105 Ω-cm2 after SPC process.

In this thesis, the point of discussion is to combine the power device with the technology of low temperature thin film transistor fabrication, and to fabricate low temperature thin film power device. For improving the characteristic of reduce surface electric field (RESURF), we use step doping into drift region, and employ the excimer laser anneal to make the doping profile from step to linear grade. Because of integration power devices with any kinds of substrate, thin film transistor lateral insulated gate bipolar transistors (TFT-LIGBTs) were fabricated combining the technology of thin film transistor and the structure of power device used excimer laser anneal in this thesis. Excimer laser anneal and substrate heating at 400℃simultaneously for TFT-LIGBT to integrate with the driving circuit of System-On-Panel (SOP) and other circuit in the future. Device characteristics including the breakdown and DC properties of TFT-LIGBT are measured using the semiconductor parameter analyzer (Keithley-4200) and high-voltage measurement system (Keithley-2410). The purpose of this thesis is to analysis the feasibility of power device fabrication using the low temperature thin film transistors technology and wishes to implement the integration of power devices and other circuit. As the result, the maximum breakdown voltage of TFT-LIGBT after excimer laser annealing is 280 V with Ldrift 35 m. The ON/OFF current ratio is 1.59×106. It is higher than SPC-LIGBT 1.74 about 106 times at Vanode=30 V with Ldrift 35 m and even than LDMOS 1.42×105 more 10 times.

The tech industrial facilities have been recently increasing due to the recent booming in electrical technology market. Many business companies including cross-staits companies put in a great deal of manpower and investment to develop and research on the high-tech industry. More than twenty years up to now, the development of high-tech made Taiwan to build up not only an economical miracle but also to play a good position in the high-tech territory all over the world. In addition to the extending of Hsin-Chu science park base as well as the settlement of Southern , Lu-Chu, and Tai-Chung science park bases sequentially, the expanding of large scale companies like as TSMC, UMC, CMC, and AUC etc., as well as the struggling for the set up of science park bases at other areas in Taiwan make it the "Green silicon-island" dream come true.   The market of high-tech electronic businesses is fluctuated dramatically due to strong competition and big investment, therefore, the companies would like to quickly construct the factories for early production to earn the market share. Even if Taiwan has already accomplished much achievement in the buildup of high-tech factories,however, the factors which affect the working period still confuse the constructors and the architect in different phases of projects like as building plan, aritecture design, material procurement, constuction and maintenance. It's a big challenge for people who involved in the construction to study how to keep each stage of the working period as schedule and even further reduce the project working period based on the abundent experiences on building up the high-tech factories.   Through article collection, case study and interviewing with some experts in this field, the researcher gives the examples for building up high-tech factories in Southern science park base, furthermore, by collecting and analyzing the sample data, the author clearly points out the key factors which control the working period, at the same time, the author also proposes a capable way or model which can cut the working period. As a result, it can give public offices or units that included government organization, proprietor and A/E/C staffs for references to lift the efficiency of government and create the advantages of high tech industry.   The results of research are summarized as follows: 1. Analyze the control factors of working period for constructing high-tech facilities. 2. Create the general principle of working period management for each construction phases. 3. Propose a capable model of cutting the working period for constructing high-tech facilities. 4. Determine five important factors for effectively cutting the working period forconstructing high-tech facilities.

Abstract:
Packaging is an important element responsible for brand growth and one of the main rea-sons for producers to gain competitive advantages through technological innovation. In this re-gard, the aim of this work is to design a fully autonomous electronic system for a smart bottle packaging, being integrated in a European project named ROLL-OUT. The desired application for the smart bottle is to act as a fill-level sensor system in order to determine the liquid content level that exists inside an opaque bottle, so the consumer can exactly know the remaining quantity of the product inside. An in-house amorphous indium–gallium–zinc oxide thin-film transistor (a-IGZO TFT) model, previously developed, was used for circuit designing purposes. This model was based in an artificial neural network (ANN) equivalent circuit approach. Taking into account that only n-type oxide TFTs were used, plenty of electronic building-blocks have been designed: clock generator, non-overlapping phase generator, a capacitance-to-voltage converter and a comparator. As it was demonstrated by electrical simulations, it has been achieved good functionality for each block, having a final system with a power dissipation of 2.3 mW (VDD=10 V) not considering the clock generator. Four printed circuit boards (PCBs) have been also designed in order to help in the testing phase. Mask layouts were already designed and are currently in fabrication, foreseeing a suc-cessful circuit fabrication, and a major step towards the design and integration of complex trans-ducer systems using oxide TFTs technology.

Abstract:
This chapter is a complement to Chapter 15, concentrating on the non-pharmacological approaches to chronic pain. It features a discussion on the utility of mind-body therapies, psychosocial treatments, and technology-based therapies in the context of recovery through 12-Step programs and other mutual support groups. Such settings are commonly poorly receptive to medication management of either pain or addiction; the availability of other approaches can bridge the gap, leading to effective management of both. The therapies discussed include “movement” therapies, such as internal qi gong, tai chi, yoga, and martial arts. Healing touch, reiki, external qi gong, and acupuncture are examples of “energy” therapies, requiring an intercessor. Among the psychosocial treatments are motivational interviewing, cognitive restructuring, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance-based cognitive therapy, operant training, hypnosis, relaxation training, and mindfulness/meditation. Addressed as procedures are massage, chiropractic and osteopathic manipulations, trans-epidermal nerve stimulation (TENS), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

Abstract:
The development of information and communication technology has led to the transformation of traditional business practices in all sectors of the economy. Information and communication technologies in the field of tourism represent a generator of change and drivers of development, by enabling the creation and retention of a large number of jobs, business opportunities and significant added value. Given the well-recognized value of the information and communication technologies in tourism, this chapter sought to identify the countries with the highest level of travel and tourism ICT readiness. Therefore, a two-step analysis was applied where in the first step the weights were determined using two approaches, PCA and SWARA. In the second step, using multicriteria analysis, the evaluation of ICT readiness of European countries was performed. The results indicate that the application of weight coefficients determined by different approaches in the same multicriteria method leads to moderate rank inversion.

Abstract:
Advanced gas turbine cycles use advanced blade cooling technologies to reach high turbine inlet temperature. Accurate modeling and optimization of these cycles depend on blade cooling model. In this study, different models have been used to simulate gas turbine performance. The first model is the continuous model and the second is stage-by-stage model with alternative methods for calculating coolant, stagnation pressure loss and SPR. Variation of specific heat and enthalpy with temperature are included in both models. The composition of gas stream in turbine is changed step by step due to air cooling. These models are validated by two case study gas turbine results, which show good agreement with manufacture’s data. Then using these models, a comparison between continuous and stage by stage models is done. Results show that the stage by stage model can be improved to use in variable CPR by changing number of turbine stages. Also, the number of film cooled rows and coated rows change the number of cooled rows. This also increases power, efficiency and TET, while reduces coolant mass flow. For high TIT and with current blade cooling technology, efficiency seems to have no increase relative to lower TIT. CAP increases power but decreases efficiency, where with FP efficiency also increases, while power increases too.

Abstract:
Development of life assessment methods of high temperature components in gas turbine for maintenance and operating cost reduction is strongly demanded by Japanese utilities. Especially, first row blades are subjected to complicated. Thermo-Mechanical-Fatigue (TMF) loading during start-steady state-stop cycles. Therefore it is important to clarify the TMF life property of blade materials to develop a life assessment procedure. In this study, tension-torsion biaxial TMF tests have been performed between 450C and 870C on a Ni base directional solidified (DS) supper alloy. Strain ratio, φ was defined as shear strain range, Δγ, to normal strain range, Δε, and φ varied from 0 to infinite. The “Blade waveform” which simulated surface temperature and strain loading condition of the blade, was employed. The biaxial TMF tests were also carried out on coated specimens with CoCrAlY. Fatigue life under biaxial TMF loading showed strain ratio dependency giving shorter life with increasing φ. Considering biaxial stress effect on failure life, an equivalent shear strain range was derived based on Γ -plane theory, and biaxial TMF life was well correlated with the equivalent shear strain range. The biaxial TMF life was reduced by introducing strain hold duration at the maximum temperature. The maximum stress increased by introducing the hold time due to increasing mean stress level in the Blade waveform. It was concluded that creep damage gradually accumulated during cycles resulting in TMF life reduction. The nonlinear creep-fatigue damage accumulation model was applied to predict failure life of the hold time tests. As a result, failure life could be predicted within factor of 1.5 on observed life. It was found that fatigue life of CoCrAlY coated material reduced 1/2 to 1/3 from that of without coated material. From observation of longitudinal section of the coated specimens, many cracks started from coating surface and penetrated into the substrate. It was concluded that CoCrAlY coating reduced the biaxial TMF life due to acceleration of crack initiation period in the substrate.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a method for analyzing the vibration properties of contact wires (trolley wires) using the transfer matrix method (TMM), by treating them as a periodic structure. When the speed of the train increases, self-excitation vibration of the wires may occur. When the trolley wires repeatedly contact and separate from the pantograph, the pantograph is worn by the sparks. Therefore, the vibration of the trolley wires must be kept as small as possible. For such problems, many researchers have proposed vibration analysis of the wires. However, these methods are not suitable for the vibration analysis of wires because of the very complicated wave propagation phenomenon. The TMM proposed in this study is an easy technique for studying wave propagation since the vibration properties can be simplified greatly by handling the smallest unit of repetition of the structure. Using this method, we can identify the frequencies of the vibration-attenuating domain (stop-band) and the vibration-amplifying domain (pass-band). If we can bring the excitation frequency of the wire to the stop-band domain, wear of the pantograph can be reduced. Here, we introduce three cell models; two of them do not take into account the elasticity of the trolley wire, and the other does. Then, we discuss how the stop-band appears in these models.

Abstract:
Abstract Ubiquitous CCTV cameras are a commonplace in cities with their presence on street intersections, bus stops, train stations and ferry terminals, etc. This paper presents an idea to use Artificial Intelligence in devising heat maps whereby traffic density is mapped from CCTV camera image grab of a location. When fed into the Traffic Management System (TMS), relevant alerts can be issued to the Traffic Controllers, consequently, deploying a bus or a metro train to meet that extra rush of passengers. Intelligent models can be developed that create novel routes during specific events in the city. New demand and response models can be created within TMS thru use of data science. Routes can be temporarily modified, with crowded stops added and uncrowded ones removed. Passengers are given adequate notice thru live alerts. Ethical issues related to data privacy are handled by specialized software. Such an intelligent system can help control crime. By active monitoring, the response time in attending accidents can be lessened. Necessary warnings are issued to bus operators concerning elderly and people with special needs, enabling better onboarding experience.

Abstract:
<p>From a structural engineering point of view, wind effects pose one of the major challenges to tall buildings. From a performance/architectural point of view, climatologic aspects pose a major challenge. Remedies for each challenge separately have been proposed. One of the remedies for wind effects is the Tunes-Mass-Damper (TMD) or multiple TMD's. To mitigate climatological issues, the Double-Skin-Façade (DSF) has been developed. Recently it has been suggested to take advantage of the space between the two skins of the DSF system to allocate TMD's.</p><p>In this work, another step is taken towards a single remedy for both challenges. A modified version of the TMD-DSF system proposed by Moon (2016) is presented. That is, parts of the mass of the DSF envelope itself are used as part of a multiple TMD (MTMD) system. This is obtained by connecting these parts to the building using springs and dampers while allowing the DSF to move parallel to the floor edges. Furthermore, the DSF-MTMD system is optimized using a formal optimization approach. The optimization indicates which parts of the envelope should be connected to the building rigidly and which should be used as TMD's. Furthermore, the properties of the springs and the dampers are determined by minimizing the cost associated with transforming the DSF system to a DSF-MTMD system and limiting wind responses to desired values.</p>

Abstract:
The fast transition to fully online studies due to the pandemic made the universities around the world question many of their accepted notions on teaching foreign languages in general and English for Specific Purposes (ESP) methodology in particular. Putting stress on the synchronous remote teaching and learning has proven to yield a reductionist perspective missing asynchronicity, the dimension which makes reconsider the whole educational process. With its shift from the sole focus on learning terminology to training skills in authentic professional contexts, the task-based approach has long excelled in meeting the diverse needs of students. Thus, the research question is how well task-based teaching (TBT) solves the problems raised with asynchronous learning in a university ESP course. The research of available literature on TBT yielded the framework for constructing an extended task applicable in the advanced medical English. The case study with 120 first-year students of medicine organised around an informational interview with health professionals demonstrated easy adaptability of the task to the asynchronous nature of the educational process. Personal observations by the course instructor, summaries of student-conducted interviews, and student written feedback proved the responsiveness of the method to the learners’ needs and the potential of the approach in terms of motivation. The emphasis on self-directed learning, however, threatens the systematicity of the acquired language skills, as a more controlled teaching environment would not allow “skipping” any learning step. Additionally, TBT does not solve the problem of the voluminous teaching load.

Full text
Abstract:
CGT301 is a recuperated, single-shaft ceramic gas turbine for co-generation use. Ceramic parts are used in the hot section of the engine, such as turbine blades, nozzle vanes, combustor liners, heat exchanger elements and gas path parts. These ceramic parts are designed axi-symmetrically to reduce their sizes and thermal stresses and to avoid their unexpected deformations. The turbine is a two-stage axial flow type. As a primary feature of this turbine, the rotors are composed of ceramic blades inserted into metallic disks. The ceramic parts of the engine system have been tested before installing them in the engine to assure their reliability in the following manner. The ceramic blades have been examined by hot-spin test with the gas temperature of 1100°C and up to 110% of the engine rated speed. The ceramic stationary parts such as nozzle vanes, combustor liners and gas path parts, have been assembled and installed in a test rig with almost the same constraint and thermal conditions as the engine, and thermal fatigue tests of 100 cycles between 1200°C and 300°C have been conducted. After the proof tests of ceramic parts, they have been installed in the engine, step by step. Finally, the engine has been operated with a TIT of 1200°C at the engine rated speed of 56000 rpm. The present paper describes the development process and shows test results of the ceramic gas turbine at a TIT of 1200°C.

Abstract:
A series of dynamometer tests were conducted by the Wheel Defect Prevention Research Consortium (WDPRC) to quantify the amount of expected variation in brake shoe coefficient of friction (COF) and resulting wheel temperature throughout the life of an individual brake shoe. Variations in brake shoe COF within an individual railcar are one potential source of elevated wheel temperatures and thermal mechanical shelling (TMS) damage to the wheels. High friction composition and tread conditioning brake shoes were installed in the “as manufactured” condition with no wear-in or machining at the beginning of the test matrix which consisted of seventeen stop tests and twelve grade tests. For each brake shoe tested, the average COF and maximum wheel temperature were recorded during eleven identical light grade tests interspersed throughout the test matrix.

A Prospective Comparison of Evidence Synthesis Search Strategies Developed With and Without Text-Mining Tools.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: In an era of explosive growth in biomedical evidence, improving systematic review (SR) search processes is increasingly critical. Text-mining tools (TMTs) are a potentially powerful resource to improve and streamline search strategy development. Two types of TMTs are especially of interest to searchers: word frequency (useful for identifying most used keyword terms, e.g., PubReminer) and clustering (visualizing common themes, e.g., Carrot2). Objectives: The objectives of this study were to compare the benefits and trade-offs of searches with and without the use of TMTs for evidence synthesis products in real world settings. Specific questions included: (1) Do TMTs decrease the time spent developing search strategies? (2) How do TMTs affect the sensitivity and yield of searches? (3) Do TMTs identify groups of records that can be safely excluded in the search evaluation step? (4) Does the complexity of a systematic review topic affect TMT performance? In addition to quantitative data, we collected librarians' comments on their experiences using TMTs to explore when and how these new tools may be useful in systematic review search¬¬ creation. Methods: In this prospective comparative study, we included seven SR projects, and classified them into simple or complex topics. The project librarian used conventional “usual practice” (UP) methods to create the MEDLINE search strategy, while a paired TMT librarian simultaneously and independently created a search strategy using a variety of TMTs. TMT librarians could choose one or more freely available TMTs per category from a pre-selected list in each of three categories: (1) keyword/phrase tools: AntConc, PubReMiner; (2) subject term tools: MeSH on Demand, PubReMiner, Yale MeSH Analyzer; and (3) strategy evaluation tools: Carrot2, VOSviewer. We collected results from both MEDLINE searches (with and without TMTs), coded every citation’s origin (UP or TMT respectively), deduplicated them, and then sent the citation library to the review team for screening. When the draft report was submitted, we used the final list of included citations to calculate the sensitivity, precision, and number-needed-to-read for each search (with and without TMTs). Separately, we tracked the time spent on various aspects of search creation by each librarian. Simple and complex topics were analyzed separately to provide insight into whether TMTs could be more useful for one type of topic or another. Results: Across all reviews, UP searches seemed to perform better than TMT, but because of the small sample size, none of these differences was statistically significant. UP searches were slightly more sensitive (92% [95% confidence intervals (CI) 85–99%]) than TMT searches (84.9% [95% CI 74.4–95.4%]). The mean number-needed-to-read was 83 (SD 34) for UP and 90 (SD 68) for TMT. Keyword and subject term development using TMTs generally took less time than those developed using UP alone. The average total time was 12 hours (SD 8) to create a complete search strategy by UP librarians, and 5 hours (SD 2) for the TMT librarians. TMTs neither affected search evaluation time nor improved identification of exclusion concepts (irrelevant records) that can be safely removed from the search set. Conclusion: Across all reviews but one, TMT searches were less sensitive than UP searches. For simple SR topics (i.e., single indication–single drug), TMT searches were slightly less sensitive, but reduced time spent in search design. For complex SR topics (e.g., multicomponent interventions), TMT searches were less sensitive than UP searches; nevertheless, in complex reviews, they identified unique eligible citations not found by the UP searches. TMT searches also reduced time spent in search strategy development. For all evidence synthesis types, TMT searches may be more efficient in reviews where comprehensiveness is not paramount, or as an adjunct to UP for evidence syntheses, because they can identify unique includable citations. If TMTs were easier to learn and use, their utility would be increased.

Abstract:
The function of the 30-kilodalton movement protein (MP) of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is to facilitate cell-to-cell movement of viral progeny in infected plants. Our earlier findings have indicated that this protein has a direct effect on plasmodesmal function. In addition, these studies demonstrated that constitutive expression of the TMV MP gene (under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter) in transgenic tobacco plants significantly affects carbon metabolism in source leaves and alters the biomass distribution between the various plant organs. The long-term goal of the proposed research was to better understand the factors controlling carbon translocation in plants. The specific objectives were: A) To introduce into tobacco and potato plants a virally-encoded (TMV-MP) gene that affects plasmodesmal functioning and photosynthate partitioning under tissue-specific promoters. B) To introduce into tobacco and potato plants the TMV-MP gene under the control of promoters which are tightly repressed by the Tn10-encoded Tet repressor, to enable the expression of the protein by external application of tetracycline. C) To explore the mechanism by which the TMV-MP interacts with the endogenous control o~ carbon allocation. Data obtained in our previous project together with the results of this current study established that the TMV-MP has pleiotropic effects when expressed in transgenic tobacco plants. In addition to its ability to increase the plasmodesmal size exclusion limit, it alters carbohydrate metabolism in source leaves and dry matter partitioning between the various plant organs, Expression of the TMV-MP in various tissues of transgenic potato plants indicated that sugars and starch levels in source leaves are reduced below those of control plants when the TMV-MP is expressed in green tissue only. However, when the TMV-MP was expressed predominantly in PP and CC, sugar and starch levels were raised above those of control plants. Perhaps the most significant result obtained from experiments performed on transgenic potato plants was the discovery that the influence of the TMV-MP on carbohydrate allocation within source leaves was under developmental control and was exerted only during tuber development. The complexity of the mode by which the TMV-MP exerts its effect on the process of carbohydrate allocation was further demonstrated when transgenic tobacco plants were subjected to environmental stresses such as drought stress and nutrients deficiencies, Collectively, these studies indicated that the influence of the TMV-MP on carbon allocation L the result of protein-protein interaction within the source tissue. Based on these results, together with the findings that plasmodesmata potentiate the cell-to-cell trafficking of viral and endogenous proteins and nucleoproteins complexes, we developed the theme that at the whole plant level, the phloem serves as an information superhighway. Such a long-distance communication system may utilize a new class of signaling molecules (proteins and/or RNA) to co-ordinate photosynthesis and carbon/nitrogen metabolism in source leaves with the complex growth requirements of the plant under the prevailing environmental conditions. The discovery that expression of viral MP in plants can induce precise changes in carbon metabolism and photoassimilate allocation, now provide a conceptual foundation for future studies aimed at elucidating the communication network responsible for integrating photosynthetic productivity with resource allocation at the whole-plant level. Such information will surely provide an understanding of how plants coordinate the essential physiological functions performed by distantly-separated organs. Identification of the proteins involved in mediating and controlling cell-to-cell transport, especially at the companion cell-sieve element boundary, will provide an important first step towards achieving this goal.
