Synthesis of bio-functionalized copolymer particles bearing carboxyl groups via a microfluidic device

Monodisperse copolymer particles carrying surface carboxyl groups in the range of 50–200 μm were prepared by in situ UV polymerization of ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) with acrylic acid (AA) via a microfluidic flow-focusing device (MFFD). The design of the coaxial orifices in the MFFD enables the confinement of the comonomer liquid thread to the central axis of the microchannel, which can avoid the wetting problem of comonomer liquid with the microchannel and can successfully produce monodisperse copolymer microspheres with coefficient of variance below 5%. The effects of concentration of EGDMA and AA on droplet diameters and the distribution of carboxyl group on particle surfaces were examined. It has been found that, increasing the concentration of AA would decrease particle sizes, but increase the distribution of carboxyl group on particle surfaces. Bioconjugation of the carboxylated copolymer particles with the anti-rabbit IgG–Cy3 conjugates was successfully demonstrated. By increasing the concentration of AA accompanied with decreasing the particle sizes, high efficiency of bioconjugation on carboxylated copolymer particles was achieved. The rapid continuous synthesis of carboxylated copolymer particles via a microfluidic device provides a reliable control of particle sizes and composition for massive production in biotechnological applications.     

Model-based tracking by classification in a tiny discrete pose space

A method is presented for tracking 3D objects as they transform rigidly in space within a sparse range image sequence. The method operates in discrete space and exploits the coherence across image frames that results from the relationship between known bounds on the object's velocity and the sensor frame rate. These motion bounds allow the interframe transformation space to be reduced to a reasonable and indeed tiny size, comprising only tens or hundreds of possible states. The tracking problem is in this way cast into a classification framework, effectively trading off localization precision for runtime efficiency and robustness. The method has been implemented and tested extensively on a variety of freeform objects within a sparse range data stream comprising only a few hundred points per image. It has been shown to compare favorably against continuous domain iterative closest point (ICP) tracking methods, performing both more efficiently and more robustly. A hybrid method has also been implemented that executes a small number of ICP iterations following the initial discrete classification phase. This hybrid method is both more efficient than the ICP alone and more robust than either the discrete classification method or the ICP separately

山东沂沭泗河骨干工程洪水标准适应性分析研究

分析了沂沭泗河流域治理规划要求和60年来防洪工程建设现状,指出解决沂、沭、泗河中下游洪水出路问题是一项系统工程,目前中下游重要防护区和重要城市防洪标准要求总体达到了50年一遇,但骨干河道上游段堤防矮小、防洪标准不足20年一遇,湖东堤保护区范围内重要厂矿企业区部分堤段防洪标准亦不足50年一遇,另外部分城区段设防标准较低。这些现状与山东沂沭泗河流域作为省委省政府提出的"一体两翼"经济发展战略中的南翼———鲁南经济带的地位不相称,针对未来经济社会发展对其防洪保障的更高要求,提出了规划设想。     

A private versus a public space: Anonymity and buying decorative symbolic goods for avatars in a virtual world

The virtual world has become a new channel in which people can contact with others, and organizations can provide service to their customers. Selling symbolic virtual goods has also emerged as a new economy in the virtual world. Such symbolic goods cannot facilitate people to accomplish any specific tasks; people buy them simply to decorate their avatars. This study is based on the theories of symbolic consumption, self-presentation, and computer-mediated environment, to investigate why people buy decorative symbolic goods in the virtual world. The results show that people buy symbolic virtual goods for both emotional and social values. While user perceived social presence and telepresence affect both social and emotional value of symbolic goods, individual self-presentation motivation affects only social value. Besides, anonymous users in the virtual world show behaviors that differ with non-anonymous ones.     

Stabilization of quantized systems based on Kalman filter

This paper is concerned with the design and stability analysis of networked control systems with quantization effect and noisy measurement. Quantization strategy used here is a traditional uniform one, and Kalman filter is applied to obtain the estimated states. Under some assumptions and conditions, a sufficient condition is given for the closed-loop system to be stable based on Lyapunov theory and invariable set theory. Two examples are given to show the effectiveness of the main results.

Shift-full-rank matrices and applications in space-time trellis codes for relay networks with asynchronous cooperative diversity

To achieve full cooperative diversity in a relay network, most of the existing space-time coding schemes require the synchronization between terminals. A family of space-time trellis codes that achieve full cooperative diversity order without the assumption of synchronization has been recently proposed. The family is based on the stack construction by Hammons and El Gamal and its generalizations by Lu and Kumar. It has been shown that the construction of such a family is equivalent to the construction of binary matrices that have full row rank no matter how their rows are shifted, where a row corresponds to a terminal (or transmit antenna) and its length corresponds to the memory size of the trellis code on that terminal. We call such matrices as shift-full-rank (SFR) matrices. A family of SFR matrices has been also constructed, but the memory sizes of the corresponding space-time trellis codes (the number of columns of SFR matrices) grow exponentially in terms of the number of terminals (the number of rows of SFR matrices), which may cause a high decoding complexity when the number of terminals is not small. In this paper, we systematically study and construct SFR matrices of any sizes for any number of terminals. Furthermore, we construct shortest (square) SFR (SSFR) matrices that correspond to space-time trellis codes with the smallest memory sizes and asynchronous full cooperative diversity. We also present some simulation results to illustrate the performances of the space-time trellis codes associated with SFR matrices in asynchronous cooperative communications.
