The Use And Development Of Laser Microdissection To Separate Spermatozoa From Epithelial Cells For Str Analysis, Christine Sanders
The Use And Development Of Laser Microdissection To Separate Spermatozoa From Epithelial Cells For Str Analysis, Christine Sanders
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Short Tandem Repeat (STR) analysis has become a valuable tool in identifying the source of biological stains, particularly from the investigation of sexual assault crimes. Difficulties in analysis arise primarily in the interpretation of mixed genotypes when cell separation of the sexual assailant's sperm from the victim's cells is incomplete. The forensic community continues to seek improvements in cell separation methods from mixtures for DNA typing. This report describes the use of laser microdissection (LMD) for the separation of pure populations of spermatozoa from two-donor cell mixtures. In this study, cell separation was demonstrated by microscopic identification of histologically stained …

The 2003 Boumerdes, Algeria Earthquake: Regional Moment Tensor Analysis, Jochen Braunmiller, Fabrizio Bernardi
School of Geosciences Faculty and Staff Publications
We used regional broadband seismograms to determine seismic moment tensors for the destructive May 21, 2003 Boumerdes (Algeria) Mw = 7.0 earthquake and its larger aftershocks. Fully automatic inversions using near-real time data provided solutions for seven Mw ≥ 4.7 events within 90 minutes after event occurrence. After adding off-line data, we manually obtained 30 solutions (Mw ≥ 3.8) from May 2003 to January 2004. All have shallow source depths (6–21 km). The median P-axis orientation (338°) of 24 thrust and four strike-slip events is consistent with Africa-Eurasia plate motion (330°). The main shock hypocenter at 8–10 …

Global Stability Of Periodic Orbits Of Non-Autonomous Difference Equations And Population Biology, Saber Elaydi, Robert J. Sacker
Global Stability Of Periodic Orbits Of Non-Autonomous Difference Equations And Population Biology, Saber Elaydi, Robert J. Sacker
Mathematics Faculty Research
Elaydi and Yakubu showed that a globally asymptotically stable(GAS) periodic orbit in an autonomous difference equation must in fact be a fixed point whenever the phase space is connected. In this paper we extend this result to periodic nonautonomous difference equations via the concept of skew-product dynamical systems. We show that for a k-periodic difference equation, if a periodic orbit of period r is GAS, then r must be a divisor of k. In particular sub-harmonic, or long periodic, oscillations cannot occur. Moreover, if r divides k we construct a non-autonomous dynamical system having minimum period k and …
The Asymptotic Optimal Partition And Extensions Of The Nonsubstitution Theorem, Julio R. Hasfura-Buenaga, Allen G. Holder, Jeffrey Stuart
The Asymptotic Optimal Partition And Extensions Of The Nonsubstitution Theorem, Julio R. Hasfura-Buenaga, Allen G. Holder, Jeffrey Stuart
Mathematics Faculty Research
The data describing an asymptotic linear program rely on a single parameter, usually referred to as time, and unlike parametric linear programming, asymptotic linear programming is concerned with the steady state behavior as time increases to infinity. The fundamental result of this work shows that the optimal partition for an asymptotic linear program attains a steady state for a large class of functions. Consequently, this allows us to define an asymptotic center solution. We show that this solution inherits the analytic properties of the functions used to describe the feasible region. Moreover, our results allow significant extensions of an economics …

Prior Knowledge Input Method In Device Modeling, Serdar Heki̇mhan, Serdar Menekay, N. Serap Şengör
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The artificial neural networks are being used in modelling electronic elements and devices especially at microwave frequencies where non-linearity and dependence on frequency cannot be neglected. In this paper, instead of using artificial neural networks as a unique modelling device prior knowledge input method based on feed-forward artificial neural network structures as multi-layer perceptrons and wavelet-based neural networks is investigated. The benefits of prior knowledge input method over plain usage of artificial neural networks in modelling BJT is explored by comparing models obtained with and without prior knowledge input. The novelty of the paper is utilizing wavelet-based neural networks as …

Multilayer Capacitor Model Of The Earth's Upper Crust, Berk Üstündağ, Özcan Kalenderli̇, Haluk Eyi̇doğan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, an equivalent electric circuit model of Earth's upper crust is proposed to explain the behavior of measurement patterns acquired from network of the earthquake forecast project. A multi-layer capacitor model having active components that couples with the monopolar probe close to the surface is used to determine earthquake precursory patterns due to structural changes in time. Equivalent circuit model was developed for a) dilatency process that is assumed to be a stress weakening reason and b) external force source that increases shear stress over the fault until sudden decrement before the earthquake. A data acquisition system consisting …

Implementation Of A New Self-Tuning Fuzzy Pid Controller On Plc, Onur Karasakal, Engi̇n Yeşi̇l, Müjde Güzelkaya, İbrahi̇m Eksi̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, the self-tuning method for fuzzy PID controllers that has been developed in a previous study of the authors is implemented on PLC in order to control some standard processes formed on FEEDBACK PCS 327 Process Control Simulator. In this tuning method, the input scaling factor corresponding to the derivative coefficient and the output scaling factor corresponding to the integral coefficient of the fuzzy PID controller are adjusted using a fuzzy inference mechanism with a new input called ``normalized acceleration''. The results of the implementation have been compared with those of the classical fuzzy PID controller without a …
A Survey On The H.264/Avc Standard, Nükhet Özbek, Turhan Tunali
A Survey On The H.264/Avc Standard, Nükhet Özbek, Turhan Tunali
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
H.264/AVC is a recently completed video compression standard jointly developed by ITU-T VCEG and ISO/IEC MPEG standards committees. The standard is becoming more popular as it promises much higher compression than that possible with earlier standards. The standard provides flexibilities in coding and organization of data which enable efficient error resilience. The increased coding efficiency offers new application areas and business opportunities. As might be expected, the increases in compression efficiency and flexibility come at the expense of increase in complexity, which is a fact that must be overcome. This paper provides an overview of the technical features of H.264 …
Control Charts Approach For Scenario Recognition In Video Sequences, Ersi̇n Elbaşi, Long Zuo, Kishan Mehrotra, Chilukuri Mohan, Pramod Varshney
Control Charts Approach For Scenario Recognition In Video Sequences, Ersi̇n Elbaşi, Long Zuo, Kishan Mehrotra, Chilukuri Mohan, Pramod Varshney
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A new approach, based on control charts, is presented for the task of recognition of events and scenarios in video image sequences. For each image in the sequence, low level image processing and feature extraction steps result in feature descriptors for objects of interest detected in the images. Control charts analysis is then explored to classify the nature of the activity depicted by the temporal changes in these features over the image sequence. Scenario recognition with higher accuracy is achieved using this simple approach.

Polystyrene Nanocomposites Based On Carbazole-Containing Surfactants, Grace Chigwada, David D. Jiang, Charles A. Wilkie
Chemistry Faculty Research and Publications
New organically-modified clays containing a carbazole unit were prepared and the number of long alkyl chains on the surfactant was varied. The clay was used to prepare polystyrene nanocomposites by both bulk polymerization and melt blending. The dispersion of these clays in the polymer matrix was evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The thermal stability of the clays and the nanocomposites were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) while the fire properties were evaluated by cone calorimetry. If more than two alkyl chains were present, the gallery spacing is apparently overcrowded, leading to poor dispersion. Bulk polymerization …

The Relationship Between The Solubility Parameter Of Polymers And The Clay-Dispersion In Polymer/Clay Nanocomposites And The Role Of The Surfactant, Bok Nam Jang, Dongyan Wang, Charles A. Wilkie
Chemistry Faculty Research and Publications
Nanocomposites were prepared of polymers having different solubility parameters and pristine or organically modified clays, and the dispersion of clay in the polymer was evaluated using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The solubility parameters of both the polymers and surfactants of interest were calculated according to the group contribution method and correlated with the clay morphology. A close relationship between the solubility parameter of the polymer and the clay morphology was observed. The clay has a very polar group, so the higher is the solubility parameter of the polymer, the larger is the d spacing of the clay that …
On Rough Singular Integrals Along Surfaces On Product Domains, Ahmad Al-Salman, Ali A. Al-Jarrah
On Rough Singular Integrals Along Surfaces On Product Domains, Ahmad Al-Salman, Ali A. Al-Jarrah
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this paper, we study a class of singular integrals along surfaces on product domains with kernels in L(log L)^2(S^{n-1} \times S^{m-1}). We formulate a general theorem concerning the L^p boundedness of these operators. As a consequence of this theorem we establish L^p estimates of several classes of operators whose L^p boundedness in the one parameter setting is known. The condition L(log L)^2(B^{n-1} \times S^{m-1}) is known to be an optimal size condition

Estimation Of Gravity Wave Momentum Flux With Spectroscopic Imaging, Jing Tang, Farzad Kamalabadi, Steven J. Franke, Alan Z. Liu, Gary R. Swenson
Physical Sciences - Daytona Beach
Atmospheric gravity waves play a significant role in the dynamics and thermal balance of the upper atmosphere. In this paper, we present a novel technique for automated and robust calculation of momentum flux of high-frequency quasi-monochromatic wave components from spectroscopic imaging and horizontal radar wind measurements. Our approach uses the two-dimensional (2-D) cross periodogram of two consecutive Doppler-shifted time-differenced (TD) images to identify wave components and estimate intrinsic wave parameters. Besides estimating the average perturbation of dominant waves in the whole field of view, this technique applies 2-D short-space Fourier transform to the TD images to identify localized wave events. …
Optimization Of An Acrylamides-Based Photopolymer For Reflection Holographic Recording, Raghavendra Jallapuram
Optimization Of An Acrylamides-Based Photopolymer For Reflection Holographic Recording, Raghavendra Jallapuram
Doctoral
Photopolymers have been the subject of special attention in the last two decades. The advantage of being self-developing makes them a practical alternative to silver halide photographic emulsions in holographic interferometry applications. This thesis is aimed at understanding diffusion properties and optimization of an acrylamide-based green sensitized photopolymer material for reflection holographic recording. The composition of the photopolymer includes a green sensitive dye (erythrosine B), acrylamide (monomer), electron donor (triethanolamine) a cross linking monomer (NN’methylenebisacrylamide) and a binder (polyvinyl alcohol). On illumination with light of the appropriate wavelength the dye absorbs a photon and enters into an excited state. The …

We present results from 30 nights of observations of the open cluster NGC 7789 with the Wide Field Camera on the Isaac Newton Telescope, La Palma. From ∼900 epochs, we obtained light curves and Sloan r'− i' colours for ∼33000 stars, with ∼2400 stars having better than 1 percent precision. We expected to detect ∼2 transiting hot Jupiter planets if 1 percent of stars host such a companion and a typical hot Jupiter radius is ∼1.2 RJ. We find 24 transit candidates, 14 of which we can assign a period. We rule out the transiting planet model …

An Evaluation Of The Enantiomeric Recognition Of Amino Acid Based Polymeric Surfactants And Cyclodextrins Using Spectroscopic And Chromatographic Methods, Bertha Cedillo Valle
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
The scope of this dissertation is to explore the enantiomeric recognition properties of amino acid based polymeric surfactants using a combination of analytical techniques including chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. Chapter 1 includes an introduction to chirality and chiral separations using capillary electrophoresis. Using cyclodextrin modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography (CD-MEKC), the enantioseparation of three binaphthyl derivatives using native alpha- and beta-cyclodextrins in combination with various diastereomers of chiral polymeric surfactants (PS) was examined. A reversal of enantiomeric order was observed with the enantiomers of (1,1 S-binaphthyl-2,2 S-diamine (BNA) and (1,1 S-binaphthol (BOH) due to a competition between the two chiral selectors …
