Über die verzweigung von polydodecylmethacrylat
1970
Zur Untersuchung der Losungseigenschaften und des Ausmases der Verzweigung von radikalisch gewonnenem Polydodecylmethacrylat wurden Fraktionen von niedrig- und hochumgesetzten Praparaten im Molekulargewichtsbereich von 1,5·105 bis 8·106 auf ihr Molekulargewicht und ihre Knaueldimension hin vermessen. Die Methoden der Lichtstreuung, der Viskosimetrie, der Sedimentation in der Ultrazentrifuge, der Osmometrie und der Gelchromatographie wurden benutzt. Fur die Streulichtmessungen diente ein Eigenbaulichtstreuungsgerat, das wegen seines grosen Winkelmesbereiches eine recht genaue Festlegung der Anfangssteigung der Streukurve und damit des Tragheitsradius ermoglicht. Das Quadrat des Tragheitsradi…
Ecología de los crustáceos dominantes en los lagos de la Antártida marítima
2016
La presente tesis aborda el estudio ecológico de los dos crustáceos más abundantes en los lagos de La Península Byers (Islas Shetland del Sur, Antártida), el anostráceo Branchinecta gaini y el copépodo Boeckella poppei. Esta región es considerada una de las zonas con mayor interés desde el punto de vista limnológico dentro del continente antártico. Los estudios realizados en los sistemas acuáticos de esta región son relativamente recientes aunque amplios, no obstante existe todavía un sesgo de carencia en lo que respecta al conocimiento de la ecología de estos crustáceos. Las condiciones climáticas de la Antártida marítima, menos severas que las de la región continental, conllevan la existe…
Mappings of finite distortion : size of the branch set
2018
Abstract We study the branch set of a mapping between subsets of ℝ n {\mathbb{R}^{n}} , i.e., the set where a given mapping is not defining a local homeomorphism. We construct several sharp examples showing that the branch set or its image can have positive measure.
Branch-Price-and-Cut for the Soft-Clustered Capacitated Arc-Routing Problem
2021
The soft-clustered capacitated arc-routing problem (SoftCluCARP) is a variant of the classical capacitated arc-routing problem. The only additional constraint is that the set of required edges, that is, the streets to be serviced, is partitioned into clusters, and feasible routes must respect the soft-cluster constraint, that is, all required edges of the same cluster must be served by the same vehicle. In this article, we design an effective branch-price-and-cut algorithm for the exact solution of the SoftCluCARP. Its new components are a metaheuristic and branch-and-cut-based solvers for the solution of the column-generation subproblem, which is a profitable rural clustered postman tour …
A branch-and-cut algorithm for the Profitable Windy Rural Postman Problem
2016
[EN] In this paper we study the profitable windy rural postman problem. This is an arc routing problem with profits defined on a windy graph in which there is a profit associated with some of the edges of the graph, consisting of finding a route maximizing the difference between the total profit collected and the total cost. This problem generalizes the rural postman problem and other well-known arc routing problems and has real-life applications, mainly in snow removal operations. We propose here a formulation for the problem and study its associated polyhedron. Several families of facet-inducing inequalities are described and used in the design of a branch-and-cut procedure. The algorithm…
Two-level branch prediction using neural networks
2003
Dynamic branch prediction in high-performance processors is a specific instance of a general time series prediction problem that occurs in many areas of science. Most branch prediction research focuses on two-level adaptive branch prediction techniques, a very specific solution to the branch prediction problem. An alternative approach is to look to other application areas and fields for novel solutions to the problem. In this paper, we examine the application of neural networks to dynamic branch prediction. We retain the first level history register of conventional two-level predictors and replace the second level PHT with a neural network. Two neural networks are considered: a learning vec…
Crowdsourced analysis of fungal growth and branching on microfluidic platforms
2021
Fungal hyphal growth and branching are essential traits that allow fungi to spread and proliferate in many environments. This sustained growth is essential for a myriad of applications in health, agriculture, and industry. However, comparisons between different fungi are difficult in the absence of standardized metrics. Here, we used a microfluidic device featuring four different maze patterns to compare the growth velocity and branching frequency of fourteen filamentous fungi. These measurements result from the collective work of several labs in the form of a competition named the “Fungus Olympics.” The competing fungi included five ascomycete species (ten strains total), two basidiomycete…
Correlated X-ray spectral and timing variability of the Be/X-ray binary V0332+53/BQ Camelopardalis during a type II outburst
2005
We have used INTEGRAL & RXTE data to investigate the timing properties of the source in correlation with its spectral states as defined by different positions in the colour-colour diagram. The source shows two distinct branches in the colour-colour diagram that resemble those of the Z sources. The hard branch (similar to the horizontal branch of Z sources) is characterised by a low-amplitude change of the hard colour compared to the change in the soft colour. In the soft branch (analogue to the normal branch) the amplitude of variability of the hard colour is about three times larger than that of the soft colour. As the count rate decreases the source moves up gradually through the soft…
Search for excited electrons and muons in root s=8 TeV proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector
2013
The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is used to search for excited electrons and excited muons in the channel pp → ℓℓ* → ℓℓγ, assuming that excited leptons are produced via contact interactions. The analysis is based on 13 fb[superscript −1] of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. No evidence for excited leptons is found, and a limit is set at the 95% credibility level on the cross section times branching ratio as a function of the excited-lepton mass m[subscript ℓ*]. For m[subscript ℓ*] ≥ 0.8 TeV, the respective upper limits on σB(ℓ* → ℓγ) are 0.75 and 0.90 fb for the e* and μ* searches. Limits on σB are converted into lower bounds on the compositeness scale Λ. In …
Supernormal conduction in the right bundle branch: lack of influence of autonomic blockade.
1984
A programmed atrial stimulation at a driving rate of 100/min was performed in a 47-year-old woman with left bundle branch block. Supernormal conduction lasting 40 ms was revealed within the right bundle branch. After autonomic blockade (0.2 mg propranolol/kg body weight and 0.04 mg atropine/kg body weight) the position and duration of the supernormal conduction did not change. This suggests that the autonomic nervous system has no influence on the supernormal phase of conduction in the human intraventricular conduction system.
