Biodiesel Production from Mixed Culture Algae Via a Wet Lipid Extraction Procedure

A direction-length framework is a pair (G, p), where G = (V ;D,L) is a ‘mixed’ graph whose edges are labeled as ‘direction’ or ‘length’ edges, and p is a map from V to R for some d. The label of an edge uv represents a direction or length constraint between p(u) and p(v). Let G be obtained from G by adding, for each length edge e of G, a direction edge with the same end vertices as e. We show t...

Bicyclic Mixed Triple Systems by Benkam Benedict Bobga In the study of triple systems, one question faced is that of finding for what order a decomposition exists. We state and prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a bicyclic mixed triple system based on the three possible partial orientations of the 3-cycle with twice as many arcs as edges. We also explore the existen...

Monitoring fine particulate matter with diameters of less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5) is a critical endeavor in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) region, which is one of the most polluted areas in China. Polar orbit satellites are limited by observation frequency, which is insufficient for understanding PM2.5 evolution. As a geostationary satellite, Himawari-8 can obtain hourly optical depths (AODs) and ...

This paper focuses on the potential applications of hybrid reality in the cultural sphere, where media and technologies can be used for multisensory stimulation and interaction. We investigate the capacity of hybrid spaces to incite alternative states of consciousness, similar to what mystics, alchemists and shamans describe as a journey towards rapture (a state of overwhelming emotion). The tw...

In this paper we are presenting a tangible prototype interface for Cultural Heritage dissemination in Mixed Reality (MR) environments. Drawing from previous work on MR (Billinghurst et al. 2001), this study aims to explore alternative and interactive modes of engaging the public with archaeological information and suggests that early stage user evaluations can significantly inform interpretive ...

The concept of “enhanced eyes” to restore gaze awareness in a collaborative mixed-reality space is proposed. Three “enhanced eyes” schemes are described: controlling the highlight in the eyes to aid awareness of eye contact, deforming the eyelids to enhance eye motion, and adjusting the rotation angle of the eyeballs to improve perception of gaze direction. The effectiveness of the schemes has ...
