The Impact of Ageing on the CNS Immune Response in Alzheimer’s Disease
No full textAlzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease strongly associated with increasing age. Neuroinflammation and the accumulation of amyloid protein are amongst the hallmarks of this disease and most translational research to date has focused on targeting these two processes. However, the exact etiology of AD remains to be fully elucidated. When compared alongside, the immune response in AD closely resembles the central nervous system (CNS) immune changes seen in elderly individuals. It is possible that AD is a pathological consequence of an aged immune system secondary to chronic stimulation by a previous or ongoing insult. Pathological changes like amyloid accumulation and neuronal cell death may reflect this process of immunosenescence as the CNS immune system fails to maintain homeostasis in the CNS. It is likely that future treatments designed to modulate the aged immune system may prove beneficial in altering the disease course. The development of new tests for appropriate biomarkers would also be essential in screening for patients most likely to benefit from such treatments
Design, fabrication and performance testing of stationary freezer of Jollibee Food Corporation using non-CFC refrigerator (R-404A)
No full textIn general, the project study has provided the author a vast experience especially during the brainstorming stage where different problems occurred during the performance testing. The author was very glad to the previous theoretical lectures of Dr, Maglaya who was also my former professor in the subjects Advance Refrigeration and Air-conditioning during my undergraduate and graduate class in the De La Salle University. Thru his teachings and guidance, The author was able to apply the theoretical knowledge the author has learned in combating actual job problems experienced in the company. The project was very challenging because of the swift output during the testing and then making the necessary adjustments in order to attain the desired results. In addition, this project is a pioneer project of Chee Puck Refrigeration Inc that gave me a lot of pressure but the author is honored to have the privilege in embarking this task. The major concentration of the project study was to design, fabricate, and conduct a performance testing of stationary freezer using R-404A, a non-CFC refrigerant.
The results of the performance testing shows that the evaporating temperature of negative twenty degree Celsius (–20C) within 25 minutes were reach, which is the main requirements set by Jollibee Foods Corporation to Chee Puck Refrigeration Inc. In addition, the unit case was also subjected to severe physical testing by opening and closing the door with significant pressure on the boundaries of normal usage in order to test the physical toughness of the unit. Results show that the design and fabrication was very tough and formidable because it withstood significant pressures applied to unit case
Poly(methyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate-co-acrylic acid): Physico-chemical characterization and targeted dye sensitized solar cell application
No full textA random poly(methyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate-co-acrylic acid) [P(MMA-co-BA-co-AA)] was synthesized via emulsion polymerization utilizing thermally-activated persulfate radicals. The successful synthesis of high molecular weight copolymer at high monomer conversion rate was confirmed by NMR study. Various techniques were employed to characterize the structure, electrical and thermal properties of copolymer. The removal of unreacted monomers from the end product by casting technique was rationalized from the disappearance of C=C FTIR characteristic peak in the cast film. The drying of the emulsion above the glass transition temperature (Tg = 24 °C) yields an amorphous film with smooth surface morphology. The suitability of the formed continuous film as a base polymer for iodide-based electrolytes in dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) fabrication was investigated. The polymeric solid state electrolytes (PSSE) were formulated by varying the doping concentrations of sodium iodide (NaI) in fixed ratio of iodine (I2) and mixtures of ethylene carbonate: propylene carbonate (EC:PC, 1:1). The DSSC fabricated using PSSE with 15 wt.% NaI showed the highest solar-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency (η) of 3.22% under 100 mW cm−2 sunlight intensity. This implies that the physico-chemical properties of the synthesized copolymer are suitable for the development of photoelectrochemical devic

Rods and Rings: Soft Subdivision Planner for R^3 x S^2
No full textWe consider path planning for a rigid spatial robot moving amidst polyhedral obstacles. Our robot is either a rod or a ring. Being axially-symmetric, their configuration space is R^3 x S^2 with 5 degrees of freedom (DOF). Correct, complete and practical path planning for such robots is a long standing challenge in robotics. While the rod is one of the most widely studied spatial robots in path planning, the ring seems to be new, and a rare example of a non-simply-connected robot. This work provides rigorous and complete algorithms for these robots with theoretical guarantees. We implemented the algorithms in our open-source Core Library. Experiments show that they are practical, achieving near real-time performance. We compared our planner to state-of-the-art sampling planners in OMPL [Sucan et al., 2012].
Our subdivision path planner is based on the twin foundations of epsilon-exactness and soft predicates. Correct implementation is relatively easy. The technical innovations include subdivision atlases for S^2, introduction of Sigma_2 representations for footprints, and extensions of our feature-based technique for "opening up the blackbox of collision detection"
