In Japan, Promotion of Domestic Pro-Environmental Behavior(PEB) is one of the main challenges for energy saving. Existing studies of Promotion of PEB seldom deal with continue of PEB. Purposes of this study are proposal of a method for promotion of continuous PEB with easy communication and evaluation of the effectiveness of the method. Main part of the proposed method is an easy communication ...

When grown in green light, Fremyella diplosiphon strain UTEX 481 produces the red-colored protein phycoerythrin (PE) to maximize photosynthetic light harvesting. PE is composed of two subunits, CpeA and CpeB, which carry two and three phycoerythrobilin (PEB) chromophores, respectively, that are attached to specific Cys residues via thioether linkages. Specific bilin lyases are hypothesized to c...

Plug-in electric bus (PEB) is an environmentally friendly mode of public transportation and plug-in electric bus fast charging stations (PEBFCSs) play an essential role in the operation of PEBs. Under effective control, deploying an energy storage system (ESS) within a PEBFCS can reduce the peak charging loads and the electricity purchase costs. To deal with the (integrated) scheduling problem ...

OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate the long-term comparative efficacy and safety of paclitaxel-eluting balloon (PEB), paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES), or balloon angioplasty (BA) for the treatment of drug-eluting stent restenosis. BACKGROUND The optimal treatment of drug-eluting stent restenosis remains unknown. Although PEB has shown encouraging results, the long-term clinical effica...

BACKGROUND Our study aimed to compare the efficacy of seal-wing paclitaxel-eluting balloon catheters (PEB) with iopromide-coated PEB and everolimus-eluting stents (EES) for treating bare metal stent restenosis (BMS-ISR). METHODS We enrolled 64 patients with 69 BMS-ISR. The control group comprised patients from the iopromide-PEB and EES arms of a previous TIS study. The primary end-point was 1...

Genetic studies of Wallerian degeneration have led to the identification of signaling molecules (e.g., dSarm/Sarm1, Axundead, and Highwire) that function locally in axons to drive degeneration. Here we identify a role for the Drosophila C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor Pebbled [Peb, Ras-responsive element binding protein 1 (RREB1) in mammals] in axon death. Loss of Peb in Drosophila glutam...

We report the single crystal structure and thermal properties of 1,2-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene (PEB), revealing that PEB forms a metastable liquid at rt, ca. 35 °C below its melting point. Accelerated nucleation of PEB from its supercooled state was induced with high reproducibility by a shock wave with ca. 15 ns duration and 1.2 GPa peak pressure. By conducting shock wave experiments with vary...

CD-PEB temperature experiments show that post-exposure bake (PEB) temperature non-uniformity (both in steady-state and transient phases) impacts across-wafer CD uniformity [1]. Continued improvement in CD uniformity requires across-wafer temperature uniformity for the entire PEB cycle. This poses new challenges for the design of PEB thermal modules. This paper proposes a novel PEB thermal modul...

In this paper we propose a modified probabilistic estimation bias (PEB) formula for fixed-width radix-4 Booth multiplier. The modified PEB formula estimates the same compensation value as the existing PEB formula without rounding operation. A bias circuit based on modified PEB formula generates one less carry-bit and involves less logic resources than the existing PEB circuit. The partial produ...
