Ddasaccident263, Hd-Aid

Global CWD Repository

As the Team Leader was looking for any signs of the benchmark or any other marking from the site, he used a track well used by the locals. This track had hazard warning tape leading down (red and white chevron tape), either side of it forming a corridor. There were no mine signs or any other signs of restricting access and the track was marked in a way that it should be safe to use. The Victim was tasked to park 15 metres down the track and the Team Leader and the Victim alighted from the vehicle. The Team Leader …

Interior-Point Methods And Modern Optimization Codes, Goran Lesaja Nov 1999

Interior-Point Methods And Modern Optimization Codes, Goran Lesaja

Mathematical Sciences: Faculty Publications

During the last fifteen years we have witnessed an explosive development in the area of optimization theory due to the introduction and development of interior-point methods. This development has quickly led to the development of new and more efficient optimization codes. In this paper, the basic elements of interior-point methods for linear programming will be discussed as well as extensions to convex programming, complementary problems, and semidefinite programming. Interior-point methods are polynomial and effective algorithms based on Newton 's method. Since they have been introduced, the classical distinction between linear programming methods, based on the simplex algorithm, and those methods …

Influence Of The Medium Length On High-Order Harmonic Generation, C. Delfin, C. Altucci, F. De Filippo, C. De Lisio, M. B. Gaarde, A. L'Huillier, L. Roos, C. G. Wahlström Nov 1999

Influence Of The Medium Length On High-Order Harmonic Generation, C. Delfin, C. Altucci, F. De Filippo, C. De Lisio, M. B. Gaarde, A. L'Huillier, L. Roos, C. G. Wahlström

Faculty Publications

We study high-order harmonic generation using a 110 fs Ti:sapphire laser loosely focused into a variable-length gas cell filled with neon or argon at 5 mbar pressure. The harmonic intensity is recorded as a function of the medium length, varying between 2 and 21 mm. Several cases are examined, the 17th and the 29th harmonic in argon, and the 29th and 51st harmonic in neon, at the same intensity 4 × 1014 W cm-2. We find that the length which maximizes the harmonic yield varies from 10 mm to more than 20 mm. We discuss the different effects affecting the …

Using The Space-Borne Nasa Scatterometer (Nscat) To Determine The Frozen And Thawed Seasons, Steve Frolking, Kyle Mcdonald, John Kimball, S W. Running, R Zimmermann Nov 1999

Using The Space-Borne Nasa Scatterometer (Nscat) To Determine The Frozen And Thawed Seasons, Steve Frolking, Kyle Mcdonald, John Kimball, S W. Running, R Zimmermann

Earth Sciences

We hypothesize that the strong sensitivity of radar backscatter to surface dielectric properties, and hence to the phase (solid or liquid) of any water near the surface should make space-borne radar observations a powerful tool for large-scale spatial monitoring of the freeze/thaw state of the land surface, and thus ecosystem growing season length. We analyzed the NASA scatterometer (NSCAT) backscatter from September 1996 to June 1997, along with temperature and snow depth observations and ecosystem modeling, for three BOREAS sites in central Canada. Because of its short wavelength (2.14 cm), NSCAT was sensitive to canopy and surface water. NSCAT had …

New Mammalian Selenocysteine-Containing Proteins Identified With An Algorithm That Searches For Selenocysteine Insertion Sequence Elements, Gregory V. Kryukov, Valentin M. Kryukov, Vadim N. Gladyshev Nov 1999

New Mammalian Selenocysteine-Containing Proteins Identified With An Algorithm That Searches For Selenocysteine Insertion Sequence Elements, Gregory V. Kryukov, Valentin M. Kryukov, Vadim N. Gladyshev

Vadim Gladyshev Publications

Mammalian selenium-containing proteins identified thus far contain selenium in the form of a selenocysteine residue encoded by UGA. These proteins lack common amino acid sequence motifs, but 3’-untranslated regions of selenoprotein genes contain a common stem-loop structure, selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for decoding UGA as selenocysteine rather than a stop signal. We describe here a computer program, SECISearch, that identifies mammalian selenoprotein genes by recognizing SECIS elements on the basis of their primary and secondary structures and free energy requirements. When SECISearch was applied to search human dbEST, two new mammalian selenoproteins, designated SelT and SelR, …


Dimensional Strategies And The Minimization Problem: Barrier-Avoiding Algorithms, Daniel B. Faken, A. F. Voter, David L. Freeman, J. D. Doll Nov 1999

Dimensional Strategies And The Minimization Problem: Barrier-Avoiding Algorithms, Daniel B. Faken, A. F. Voter, David L. Freeman, J. D. Doll

Chemistry Faculty Publications

In the present paper we examine the role of dimensionality in the minimization problem. Since it has such a powerful influence on the topology of the associated potential energy landscape, we argue that it may prove useful to alter the dimensionality of the space of the original minimization problem. We explore this general idea in the context of finding the minimum energy geometries of Lennard-Jones clusters. We show that it is possible to locate barrier-free, high-dimensional pathways that connect local, three-dimensional cluster minima. The performance of the resulting, “barrier-avoiding minimization” algorithm is examined for clusters containing as many as 55 …

Recent Laboratory Tests Of A Hard X-Ray Solar Flare Polarimeter, Mark L. Mcconnell, John R. Macri, M Mcclish, Jack Ryalls Nov 1999

Recent Laboratory Tests Of A Hard X-Ray Solar Flare Polarimeter, Mark L. Mcconnell, John R. Macri, M Mcclish, Jack Ryalls

Space Science Center

We report on the development of a Compton scatter polarimeter for measuring the linear polarization of hard X-rays (50 - 300 keV) from solar flares. Such measurements would be useful for studying the directivity (or beaming) of the electrons that are accelerated in solar flares. We initially used a simple prototype polarimeter to successfully demonstrate the reliability of our Monte Carlo simulation code and to demonstrate our ability to generate a polarized photon source in the lab. We have recently fabricated a science model based on a modular design concept that places a self-contained polarimeter module on the front-end of …


Changes Of Wage Differentials By Occupations And Educational Qualifications In Hong Kong : Analysis And Implications For Public Policy, Wai Chung, Gary Wong Nov 1999

Changes Of Wage Differentials By Occupations And Educational Qualifications In Hong Kong : Analysis And Implications For Public Policy, Wai Chung, Gary Wong

Lingnan Theses (MPhil & PhD)

The dramatic increase in the wage differentials between skilled and unskilled workers observed in many developed countries have received much attention from economists. In Hong Kong, however, few empirical studies have been carried out to explain the growing wage gap. This study uses both published and unpublished data to investigate the trend of wage gaps between occupational classifications and educational qualifications, and to test a variety of hypotheses about the sources of rising wage gaps. The results show that the wage differential by skill levels decreased in the first half of the 1980s, began to increase in the late 1980s, …

Three-Dimensional Structure Of A Complex Between The Death Domains Of Pelle And Tube, Tsan Xiao, Par Towb, Steven A. Wasserman, Stephen R. Sprang Nov 1999

Three-Dimensional Structure Of A Complex Between The Death Domains Of Pelle And Tube, Tsan Xiao, Par Towb, Steven A. Wasserman, Stephen R. Sprang

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

The interaction of the serine/threonine kinase Pelle and adaptor protein Tube through their N-terminal death domains leads to the nuclear translocation of the transcription factor Dorsal and activation of zygotic patterning genes during Drosophila embryogenesis. Crystal structure of the Pelle and Tube death domain heterodimer reveals that the two death domains adopt a six-helix bundle fold and are arranged in an open-ended linear array with plastic interfaces mediating their interactions. The Tube death domain has an insertion between helices 2 and 3, and a C-terminal tail making significant and indispensable contacts in the heterodimer. In vivo assays of Pelle and …
