Resonant converters are one of the most exciting power supply topologies. These converters are popular for many applications because the performance increases power efficiency, minimizes components count, and reduces Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) over older power supply topologies. Soft switching is the representative feature of resonant converters. [1][2] However, use of the body diode in...

In this research, a high-temperature Rankin cycle (HTRC) with two-stage pumping is presented and investigated. In this cycle, two different pressures and mass flow rates in the HTRC result in two advantages. First, the possibility of direct recovery from the engine block by working fluid of water, which is a low quality waste heat source, is created in a HTRC. Secondly, by doing this, the mean ...

The mammalian endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle that maintains a complex, compartmentalized organization of interconnected cisternae and tubules while supporting a continuous flow of newly synthesized proteins and lipids to the Golgi apparatus. Using a phenotypic screen, we identify a small molecule, dispergo, that induces reversible loss of the ER cisternae and extensive ER tubulation...

In this paper we present SCMS-ER: Small Cell Management System Emergency Recovery. SCMS-ER provides a way of backing up Small Cell Management System critical data across two geographic locations. It also provides a plan for replication of backup data so that the client data is recoverable in the event of a disaster on the main site. Keywords—small cell, Femto cell, redundancy, geographic redund...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major compartment for the processing and quality control of newly synthesized proteins. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) was used as a noninvasive probe to determine the viscous properties of the aqueous lumen of the ER. GFP was targeted to the ER lumen of CHO cells by transient transfection with cDNA encoding GFP (S65T/F64L mutant) with a C-terminus KDEL re...

Ecological restoration (ER) of terrestrial ecosystems has become widespread in past decades. However, assessing its success is complex mainly due to the diversity objectives pursued, actions undertaken but also statistical methods for treating data. We demonstrate here that, heterogeneity collected data, can be overestimated meta-analyses. advocate analyzing distinctly two types ER, those aimin...

To study the construction of the ER, we used the microtubule-disrupting drug nocodazole to induce the complete breakdown of ER structure in living cells followed by recovery in drug-free medium, which regenerates the ER network within 15 min. Using the fluorescent dye 3,3'-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide to visualize the ER, we have directly observed the network construction process in living cel...
