Gas-Liquid chromatography of fatty derivatives. I. Separation of homologous series ofa-olefins,n-hydrocarbons,n-nitriles,and n-alcohols

Summary Gas-liquid chromatography has been shown to be applicable to the analysis of several fatty derivatives. The difficulties inherent in conventional separation schemes such as liquid-liquid chromatography, fractional distillation, and crystallization can be overcome through the use of gas-liquid chromatography. It becomes the preferred procedure for several reasons: a) fractions are more nearly pure, b) analysis time is a fraction of the time required for conventional separations, c) operational procedures are simple and highly reproducible, d) sample size requirements are low, e) the cost per unit analysis is low. These factors suggest that gas-liquid chromatography is highly useful as an analytical tool in fat research. In many cases the determination of chainlength distribution has already become a routine function. There remain areas in which gas-liquid chromatography has not been completely successful. Until very recently the separation of fatty methyl esters of similar chain length and varying degrees of unsaturation has been time-consuming and tedious. Several new partitioning agents hold out great promise in the separation of the isomeric C₁₈ fatty acids. More selective partitioning agents and refined techniques undoubtedly will equally improve the resolution of unsaturated alcohols and other unsaturated fatty derivatives.

Analysis of patients referred to the gastroenterology service of a VA medical center

We recorded clinical information over a 12-month period on consecutive consultations to the gastroenterology service of the Durham VA Medical Center. Of 902 consultations, 789 were prospectively collected. Eighty-five percent of the patients were between 40 and 70 years old. Seventy-five percent of the referrals were from the internal medicine service. The most frequent reasons for consultation were abdominal pain (19%), GI bleeding (active, 16%; occult, 9%), abnormal results of liver tests (18%), and request for a procedure (11%). Diseases of the liver (32%) and "peptic diseases" (30%) were the most common diagnoses. One or more procedures were done in 71% of consultations. When these data are compared with those of a practicing gastroenterologist, using an identical instrument, it is apparent that trainees' experience with structurally identifiable gastroenterologic disease and with a variety of procedures was similar in scope. There were, however, differences in that the physicians at the VA saw substantially fewer patients with so-called "functional" illness. If these data are applicable to other VA Medical Centers, then the training of physicians in gastroenterology at a VA Medical Center should probably be broadened.     

Influence of Implicit Integration Scheme on Prediction of Shear Band Formation

Implicit integration schemes for elastoplastic constitutive equations have been developed in recent years as an alternative to explicit schemes. The consistent tangent constitutive matrix Dcon that results from implicit schemes makes the global stiffness matrix consistent with the implicit integration procedure and differs from the traditional continuum tangent constitutive matrix Dep that results from explicit schemes. Onset of strain localization and shear banding has been traditionally predicted using the continuum tangent constitutive matrix. It is shown that different criteria for onset of shear-band formation are obtained depending on whether Dcon or Dep is used. It is shown that shear band prediction using Dcon is step-size dependent, and that the use of Dcon influences the predicted onset of strain localization in frictional materials. An analytical equation for prediction of the onset of shear-band formation using Dcon for the Mohr–Coulomb model is developed, and a numerical example is presented.     

Learning Dextrous Manipulation Skills for Multifingered Robot Hands Using the Evolution Strategy

We present a method for autonomous learning of dextrous manipulation skills with multifingered robot hands. We use heuristics derived from observations made on human hands to reduce the degrees of freedom of the task and make learning tractable. Our approach consists of learning and storing a few basic manipulation primitives for a few prototypical objects and then using an associative memory to obtain the required parameters for new objects and/or manipulations. The parameter space of the robot is searched using a modified version of the evolution strategy, which is robust to the noise normally present in real-world complex robotic tasks. Given the difficulty of modeling and simulating accurately the interactions of multiple fingers and an object, and to ensure that the learned skills are applicable in the real world, our system does not rely on simulation; all the experimentation is performed by a physical robot, in this case the 16-degree-of-freedom Utah/MIT hand. Experimental results show that accurate dextrous manipulation skills can be learned by the robot in a short period of time. We also show the application of the learned primitives to perform an assembly task and how the primitives generalize to objects that are different from those used during the learning phase.     

A complete parameterization of clf‐based input‐to‐state stabilizing control laws

Sontag's formula proves constructively that the existence of a control Lyapunov function implies asymptotic stabilizability. A similar result can be obtained for systems subject to unknown disturbances via input‐to‐state stabilizing control Lyapunov functions (ISS‐clfs) and the input‐to‐state analogue of Sontag's formula. The present paper provides a generalization of the ISS version of Sontag's formula by completely parameterizing all continuous ISS control laws that can be generated by a known ISS‐clf. When a simple inner‐product constraint is satisfied, this parameterization also conveniently describes a large family of ISS controls that solve the inverse‐optimal gain assignment problem, and it is proved that these controls possess Kalman‐type gain margins.

Review of Evolution, culture and the human mind.

Reviews the book, Evolution, culture and the human mind edited by M. Schaller, et al. (see record 2009-20004-000). This current volume, Evolution, culture and the human mind, follows the lead of Wundt where an attempt is made to provide a synthesis of theory and data across psychological subfields into a holistic framework. Norenzayan, Schaller, and Heine begin the volume with an overview of the scope and themes that arose from their 2004 conference at the University of British Columbia on “Mind, Culture and Evolution.” Explicit throughout this volume is an effort to bridge the “yawning chasm” between perspectives of evolutionary determinism and cultural constructionism. In doing so, there is interest in providing a rigorous multidisciplinary scientific effort to solve this foundational problem for psychology. As such this volume provides an interesting and insightful examination of the evolution of consciousness, cognition, decision-making, actions, and cultural norms in terms of collective consequences and genetic mechanisms. The volume is divided into three sections where several dialectical themes (theory/data, top-down/bottom-up, ecological/social, diversification/integration) are woven throughout. Overall the volume offers nice flow from one collection of essays to the next as themes are picked up and let go, only to return later on. This volume shows a dominance of natural science (cross-cultural) inclinations where some readers may call for more voice given to phenomenological and hermeneutical (cultural) human science contributions. Other critics may challenge the reliance upon correlational, comparative, and post hoc data to bolster claims of causality in support of various theoretical suppositions.

Long‐Term Electrical and Mechanical Function Monitoring of a Human‐on‐a‐Chip System

The goal of human‐on‐a‐chip systems is to capture multiorgan complexity and predict the human response to compounds within physiologically relevant platforms. The generation and characterization of such systems is currently a focal point of research given the long‐standing inadequacies of conventional techniques for predicting human outcome. Functional systems can measure and quantify key cellular mechanisms that correlate with the physiological status of a tissue, and can be used to evaluate therapeutic challenges utilizing many of the same endpoints used in animal experiments or clinical trials. Culturing multiple organ compartments in a platform creates a more physiologic environment (organ–organ communication). Here is reported a human 4‐organ system composed of heart, liver, skeletal muscle, and nervous system modules that maintains cellular viability and function over 28 days in serum‐free conditions using a pumpless system. The integration of noninvasive electrical evaluation of neurons and cardiac cells and mechanical determination of cardiac and skeletal muscle contraction allows the monitoring of cellular function, especially for chronic toxicity studies in vitro. The 28‐day period is the minimum timeframe for animal studies to evaluate repeat dose toxicity. This technology can be a relevant alternative to animal testing by monitoring multiorgan function upon long‐term chemical exposure.     

Uniformity and high temperature performance of X-band nitride power HEMTs fabricated from 2-inch epitaxy

X-band performance, high temperature D.C. operation and uniformity have been evaluated for 1 μm gate AlGaN/GaN HEMTs grown by RF atomic nitrogen plasma MBE. Deposition and fabrication were performed on 2-inch (0001) sapphire substrates to determine process uniformity. HEMTs with 300 μm total gate width and dual gate finger geometry have been fabricated with 650–700 cm² V⁻¹×s mobility. Maximum frequency cut-offs on the order of 8–10 GHz were achieved. D.C. performance at room temperature was >500 mA mm⁻¹, and external transconductance was >70 mS mm⁻¹. The transistors operated at test temperatures of 425°C in air.
