In Direct Computer Mapping the simple building blocks of the conservational and informational processes are mapped onto the generic “active” and “passive” elements of an executable program. The recently developed Generic Bi-layered Net model provides a common framework for the simulation of the hybrid (continuous and discrete, quantitative and qualitative) balance-based and rule-based processes...

This paper presents a new multi-function conversion technique for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications. The proposed bi-directional charger can achieve three functions, including EV battery charging, grid-connection and reactive compensation, which are keys for energy management of the grid. With the proposed multi-function technology, the bi-directional charger will benefit both the grid and ele...

the decomposition $gamma=bh$ of a group $gamma$ into a subset $b$ and a subgroup $h$ of $gamma$ induces, under general conditions, a group-like structure for $b$, known as a gyrogroup. the famous concrete realization of a gyrogroup, which motivated the emergence of gyrogroups into the mainstream, is the space of all relativistically admissible velocities along with a binary operation given by t...

An amino acid type poly(ethylene glycol) is a useful tool for preparation of a bi- or multivalent poly(ethylene glycol) hybrid of bioactive peptides, but synthesis is problematic. The amino acid type poly(ethylene glycol) was prepared from poly(oxyethylene)diglycolic acid followed by introduction of a fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group. The resulting product could be purified easily by LH-20 colu...

Résumé. Dans cet article, nous proposons un système de classification des comptes-rendus mammographiques, reposant sur une ontologie radiologique décrivant les signes radiologiques et les différentes classes de la classification ACR des systèmes BIRADS dans le langage OWL. Le système est conçu pour, extraire les faits issus des textes libres de comptes-rendus en étant dirigé par l’ontologie, pu...

Langevin model corresponding to the Fokker-Planck equation for bi-Maxwellian particle distribution functions is developed. Rosenbluth potentials and their derivatives are derived in the form of triple hypergeometric functions. The Langevin model is tested in the case of relaxation of the proton temperature anisotropy and implemented into the hybrid expanding box model. First results of this cod...

The dehydration of a iodobismuthate hybrid built up from Bi(4)I(16) clusters and protonated L-cystine molecules involves an unprecedented reversible dynamic structural change in the solid state leading to 1D BiI(4) chains and 1D helical molecular chains, highlighting the templating effect of cations in the formation of iodobismuthate network.

Bi(2)S(3) nanocrystals/BiOCl hybrid architectures with tunable band gaps were synthesized by a controlled anion exchange approach and they displayed highly efficient visible light photoactivities, which is associated with suitable energetics and structural topotactic relationship that can benefit the interfacial charge transfer.

Oligomers containing the peptide sequence cysteine-any-cysteine (CXC) were attached, at specific locations, to a linear chain of polystyrene. The polymer-bound peptide motifs were then oxidized under dilute conditions to afford a complex bio-hybrid bi-cyclic topology via intramolecular twin disulfide bridge formation.
