No full textInteractively using Semantic Web knowledge: Creating scalable abstractions with FacetOntology
No full textThe amount of knowledge accessible on the Semantic Web is growing, and there is a need for a scalable solution to facilitate exploring that data. Currently approaches to exploring Semantic Web data either focus on exploring resources individually, following links during exploration, and making little use of collated data, or take the approach of collating and aligning multiple sources into one store for one purpose, and hand-crafting a specific browsing interface onto it. We present an approach that provides a scalable browsing interface, which can browse knowledge from the Semantic Web at will. Our approach creates abstractions of knowledge, collated into facets, which are described using FacetOntology. FacetOntology facilitates describing facets from RDF data, suitable for use in creating datasets for faceted browsing
Growth Morphologies and Mechanisms of Non-Equilibrium Solidified MC Carbide
No full textGrowth morphologies and mechanisms of the carbide of group IVB and VB elements (MC carbide), a typical faceted crystal, were studied with an estimated cooling rate from 102 to 105 K/s. Results showed that although the growth morphologies of the MC carbide vary remarkably with solidification cooling rate, the solid/liquid interface is always atomically smooth, and the growth mechanisms are always lateral growth. The growth mechanism transition from lateral to continuous growth mode, which was predicted by the classic crystal growth theory, was not observed for the TiC type MC carbide within the estimated cooling rate range of 102?105 K/s
Ruth Klüger: la creatività per non “smarrirsi strada facendo”
No full textR. Klüger, a jewish viennese, a US citizen and a germanist, is the Author of two autobiographies “weiter leben”and “unterwegs versore”. Written in a style which alternates between essay and poetry, account and recollection, they are the occasion for the Author to establish a dialogue with the women having as a focus the exchange of experiences and reflections over the status of the feminine emancipation
Eutectic MC Carbide Growth Morphologies of a Laser Clad TiC/FeAl Composite Coating
No full textIn this paper, eutectic MC carbide growth morphology and its evolution with laser scanning speed were studied comprehensively of a laser clad MC carbide reinforced FeAl intermetallic matrix composite coating. As the laser scanning speed increased, the growth morphology of eutectic MC carbide was found to be needle-aligned annulation, butterfly-like and well-developed dendrite
Performance analysis of the MC-CDMA system in frequency selective slow Rayleigh fading channels, DS-CDMA or MC-CDMA?
No full textThis report describes the Bit Error Probability (BEP) performance of Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) system using the RAKE-receiver in frequency selective slow Rayleigh fading channels. The analysis has been carried out by a theoretical approach using the characteristic function method for quadratic form of Gaussian random variables and by computer simulation. The BEP performance of Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access (DS-CDMA) system under the same conditions is analysed and compared with the BEP performance of the MC-CDMA system.Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer ScienceTelecommunicatie- en Verkeersbegeleidingssysteme
Square-wave jerks and square-wave oscillations: treatment with valproic acid
No full textExperimental studies in monkeys have demonstrated that injection of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists into the superior colliculus restricts saccadic eye movements, while injection of GABA antagonists leads to square-wave jerks (SWJ). To investigate the role of GABA in saccadic interruptions of fixation, we treated five patients who had SWJ and square- wave oscillations (SWO) with valproic acid (VPA) (2000 mg/d), which has been shown to increase brain GABA levels. VPA effectively reduced the SWJ/SWO in three patients, abolished them in one patient, but was ineffective in the fifth, who had a localized lesion in the cerebellar vermis. VPA effects may have been due to the restoration of the GABAergic tonic inhibitory action from the substantia nigra pars reticulata to the superior colliculus
