Pectin methylesterase (PME) rapidly hydrolyzes pectin methylesters in cold break tomato juice to form methanol and to increase titratable acidity (TA). Within 30 min, the juice methanol concentration increased from 35 to over 400 lg g 1 while the pH dropped from 4.45 to 4.20. On average, cold break juice pH values were 0.21 U lower and TAs 12.4 leq g 1 higher than those for hot break juices pre...

Recent approaches to testing for a unit root when uncertainty exists over the presence and timing of a trend break employ break detection methods, so that a with-break unit root test is used only if a break is detected by some auxiliary statistic. While these methods achieve near asymptotic e ciency in both xed trend break and no trend break environments, in nite samples pronounced \valleys" in...

This paper proposes a single generic real-time (or near real-time) play-break event detection algorithm for multiple sports, which include football, tennis, basketball, and soccer. The proposed algorithm only uses shot-based generic cinematic features, such as shot type and shot length. Detected play-break events are employed for two purposes: 1) All plays in certain sports, such as football an...

Every day, all over the world, computer networks and hosts are being broken into. The level of sophistication of these attacks varies widely; while it is generally believed that most break-ins succeed due to weak passwords, there are still a large number of intrusions that use more advanced techniques to break in. Less is known about the latter types of break-ins, because by their very nature t...

Introduction The genesis of this article can be traced to the following question: given two short time-domain segments of audio, are there time-domain methods for transforming one into the other distinct from a cross-fade? Methods of morphing in the frequency domain have been explored (for instance, see Depalle et al 1993, Slaney et al 1996). Yet, the author has fo und a rewarding set of transf...

A three-dimensional (3D) numerical study is undertaken to investigate dam-break flows over 3D structures. two-phase flow model has been developed within the large-eddy simulation (LES) framework. The governing equations have discretized using finite-volume method, with air-water interface being captured a volume-of-fluid method while Cartesian cut-cell deals complex geometries. robustness and v...
