We have developed an improved local move Monte Carlo (LMMC) loop sampling approach for loop predictions. The method generates loop conformations based on simple moves of the torsion angles of side chains and local moves of backbone of loops. To reduce the computational costs for energy evaluations, we developed a grid-based force field to represent the protein environment and solvation effect. ...

Twenty Salmonella Gallinarum strains isolated from poultry were tested for Enterotoxigenicity activity using rabbit and chicken ligated intestine loop technique and the rabbit vascular permeability factor activity test. One ml of cell-free filtrate (CFF) of each isolate was injected into chicken ligated loops and rabbit ligated loops, one ml of whole cell culture(WCC) of each isolate was inject...

We show how to find a small loop cutset in a Bayesian network. Finding such a loop cutset is the first step in the method of conditioi~ing for inference. Our algorithm for finding a loop cutset, called MGA, finds a loop cutset which is guaranteed in the worst case to contain less than twice the number of variables contained in a minimum loop cutset. We test MGA on randomly generated graphs and ...

One-dimensional arrays with subscripts formed by induction variables in real programs appear quite frequently. For most famous data dependence testing methods, checking if integer-valued solutions exist for one-dimensional arrays with references created by induction variable is very difficult. The I test, which is a refined combination of the GCD and Banerjee tests, is an efficient and precise ...

If a loop-invariant exists in a loop program, computing its result by loopinvariant is simpler and easier than computing its result by the inductive method. For this purpose, the article describes the premise and the final computation result of the program such as “while<0”, “while>0”, “while<>0” by loop-invariant. To test the effectiveness of the computation method given in this article, by us...

A DSP-based mixed signal tester with feedback capability provides great flexibility and versatility in real-time mixed signal device testing. In this project, a DSP-based feedback loop system is designed and implemented for the DSP module of Schlumberger's new mixed signal tester. This DSP-based feedback loop system provides a dynamic close-loop testing environment for waveform generation and d...

A new open-loop heat flux control technique has been developed to conduct transient thermal testing of thick, thermallyconductive aerospace structures. This technique uses calibration of the radiant heater system power level as a function of heat flux, predicted aerodynamic heat flux, and the properties of an instrumented test article. An iterative process was used to generate open-loop heater ...

In this paper, distributed parameter process systems behavior is studied in frequency domain. Based on the dominant gain concept that is developed for such studies, a method is presented to control distributed parameter process systems. By using dominant gain concept, the location of open loop zeros, resulted from the time delay parameter in the process model, were changed from the right half p...

Although LCL filters are used widely in the grid connected inverters to reduce high-orderharmonics, such a system increases system order and therefore sustainable design of closed-loopcontroller system will be complicated. Recently, the single-loop control strategy has beensuggested for L or LC filter based grid-connected inverters. However, the use of single-loopcontrol directly in LCL filter-...
