The temporal evolution of Langmuir waves is presented with two-dimensional electrostatic Vlasov simulations. In a muti-wavelength system, trapped electrons can generate sidebands including longitudinal, transverse, and oblique sidebands. We demonstrated that are important decay channels waves, the growth rate smaller than longitudinal but higher transverse When amplitudes comparable wave, vorte...

We elucidated the effects of snow and remineralization processes on nutrient distributions in multi-year landfast sea ice (fast ice) Lützow-Holm Bay, East Antarctica. Based sea-ice salinity, oxygen isotopic ratios, thin section analyses, we found that fast grew upward due to year-by-year accumulation snow. Compared seawater origin, concentrations shallow were low replacement by clean fresh In d...

This paper presents a Multi-Carrier Pulse Width Modulation control for a Single-phase 27-level Hybrid Multi-Level Inverter for photovoltaic systems. Multi-Carier Pulse Width Modulation technique uses a easy mapping to generate gate signals for the inverter.The Maximum Power Point Tracking is capable of extracting maximum power from PV array connected to each DC linkage voltage stage. The Maximu...

Both component and agent-based developpement paradigms provide solutions to develop applications through the integration of distributed software parts. On the one hand, multi-agent systems (MASs) provide mechanisms that allow to manage open, dynamic systems. Indeed, agents are active entities that uses high-level communication capabilities to autonomously manage collaborations with other agents...

A new micromachined cell lysis device is developed. It is designed for miniature bio-analysis systems where cell lysing is needed to obtain intracellular materials for further analysis such as DNA identification. It consists of muti-electrode pairs to apply electric fields to cells. We adopt the means of using electric field lysing because it can greatly simplify purification steps for preparat...

The KEGG RPAIR database is a collection of biochemical structure transformation patterns, called RDM patterns, and chemical structure alignments of substrate-product pairs (reactant pairs) in all known enzyme-catalyzed reactions taken from the Enzyme Nomenclature and the KEGG PATHWAY database. Here, we present PathPred (http://www.genome.jp/tools/pathpred/), a web-based server to predict plausi...

Most coordinated tasks performed by teams of mobile robots, require reliable communications between the members of the team. Therefore, task accomplishment requires that robots navigate their environment with their collective movement restricted to formations that guarantee integrity of the communication network. Maintaining this communication capability induces physical constraints on trajecto...

This paper presents some prefiminary results of our current attempts to develop a hybrid multi-dimensional knowledge representation scheme which can handle both the incompleteness and uncertainty. We have started from the quantitative temporal constraint information, and extended it with possibilistic quantifiers. We have also extended the former towards a multidimensional constraint-based form...

A new wireless communication system denoted as Multi-Code Multi-Carrier CDMA (MC-MC CDMA), which is the combination of Multi-Code CDMA and Multi-Carrier CDMA, is analyzed in this paper. This system can satisfy multi-rate services using multi-code schemes and muti-carrier services used for high rate transmission. The system is evaluated using Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier (TWTA). This type of am...
