Advanced In-cycle and Cycle-to Cycle On-line Adaptive Control for Thermoforming of Large Thermoplastic Sheets [PDF]

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2005
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper presents a control system for the thermoforming of large sheets. The system has three main purposes: Its primary purpose is for cycle-to-cycle control of the sheet temperature map as predicted by the thermoforming simulation.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Adaptive cycle and outcome response of farmers’ livelihoods under the background of rural transformation: a case study from the arid northwest region of China

International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability
Rural transformation is important to deal with environmental change. In the context of rural transformation, institutional and policy changes have a great impact on farmers’ livelihoods. The adaptive cycle and the outcomes of farmers’ livelihoods reflect

Collapse and Reorganization in Social-Ecological Systems: Questions, Some Ideas, and Policy Implications

Ecology and Society, 2006
We tested the explanatory usefulness and policy relevance of Holling's (2001) "adaptive cycle" theory in exploring processes of "collapse," also called "release," and recovery in regional social-ecological systems (SESs) in Zimbabwe and Australia.

A Process-Variation-Adaptive Network-on-Chip with Variable-Cycle Routers and Variable-Cycle Pipeline Adaptive Routing [PDF]

IEICE Transactions on Electronics, 2012
As process technology is scaled down, a typical system on a chip (SoC) becomes denser. In scaled process technology, process variation becomes greater and increasingly affects the SoC circuits. Moreover, the process variation strongly affects network-on-chips (NoCs) that have a synchronous network across the chip.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Resilience Lost: Intersecting Land Use and Landscape Dynamics in the Prehistoric Southwestern United States

Ecology and Society, 2006
The interdisciplinary framework known as resilience theory used by ecologists, social scientists, as well as policy makers, is primarily concerned with the sources of transformation and stability in complex socioecological systems.

The many-headed Hydra: assessing the Indigenous-hydropower cycle in Costa Rica

Journal of Political Ecology, 2022
This article explores the intersection of hydropower development and Indigenous rights within the context of climate governance. A historical rift between dam supporters and opponents has evolved into a contentious ebb and flow of dam proposal-resistance

Adaptive negative cycle detection in dynamic graphs [PDF]

ISCAS 2001. The 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (Cat. No.01CH37196), 2001
We examine the problem of detecting negative cycles in a dynamic graph, which is a fundamental problem that arises in electronic design automation and systems theory. We introduce the concept of adaptive negative cycle detection, in which a graph changes over time, and negative cycle detection needs to be done periodically, but not necessarily after ...
