Terrestrial Natural and Man-made Electromagnetic Noise
The terrestrial environment is continuously exposed to electromagnetic radiations which set up a “background” electromagnetic noise. For what concerns electromagnetic waves in the Non Ionizing Radiation band (NIR), i.e. for frequencies lower than 300 GHz, the background can have a natural or an artificial origin. In the first case electromagnetic radiations have generally an atmospheric or a co...
متن کاملNatural and man-made V-gene repertoires for antibody discovery
Antibodies are the fastest-growing segment of the biologics market. The success of antibody-based drugs resides in their exquisite specificity, high potency, stability, solubility, safety, and relatively inexpensive manufacturing process in comparison with other biologics. We outline here the structural studies and fundamental principles that define how antibodies interact with diverse targets....
متن کاملEntropy-based Serviceability Assessment of Water Distribution Networks, Subjected to Natural and Man-Made Hazards
In this study a modified entropy-based measure is presented for evaluating the serviceability level of water distribution networks in which the hydraulic uncertainties (flow rates in pipes) as well as the uncertainties due to mechanical parameters (failure probabilities of links) are considered simultaneously. In the proposed entropy calculation method, the connectivity order of the network dem...
متن کاملEngineered Self Organization in Natural and Man-made Systems
We present here the recent developments in the studies of self-organization in abiotic, biotic (bacterial) colonies and man-made (programmable chips) systems, aimed at seeking to unravel the general principles of biotic self-organization. A typical bacterial colony consists of 10 − 10 bacteria. It is not created by pre-design or according to a plan, but through a process of biotic self-organiza...
متن کاملNatural and man-made terrestrial electromagnetic noise: an outlook
Natural electromagnetic noise sources existing since the origin of the Earth may be influencing the evolution of living systems. Understanding how this background noise is generated and distributed and how it interacts with living systems, can contribute to the general knowledge of life on Earth. In this review we consider the different frequency ranges, starting from the lowest frequencies gen...
