Plating Technology for Bump Formation.

Bump formation in a binary attractor neural network.

The conditions for the formation of local bumps in the activity of binary attractor neural networks with spatially dependent connectivity are investigated. We show that these formations are observed when asymmetry between the activity during the retrieval and learning is imposed. An analytical approximation for the order parameters is derived. The corresponding phase diagram shows a relatively ...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Multichannel plating unit for high-throughput plating of cell cultures.

High-throughput genomic approaches to gene function or target identification have led to the development and implementation of the 96-well format for many standard molecular biology manipulations. The apparatus described here, a Multichannel Plating Unit, is designed to plate out individual cultures efficientlyfrom standard 96-well culture blocks. Following transformation, aliquots of culture a...

Reconstruction Filters for Bump Mapping

Bump Mapping

Blinn [1] introduced bump mapping as a technique that makes a surface appear rough or wrinkled. This affect is achieved by perturbing the normals used in the illumination computation. Hence, it only affects the shading, not the underlying geometry. The bump map can contain height values that will affect the normal of each pixel. However, it can as an alternative contain normals that have been c...
