Open AccessActive Volcanism Revealed from a Seismicity Conduit in the Long-resting Tatun Volcano Group of Northern Taiwan
Abundant earthquakes clustered within a particular zone often reflect an active geological feature, such as clustering seismicity along a fault zone and a huge number of volcanic-earthquakes around the eruptin...

Open AccessThree-dimensional electron density along the WSA and MSNA latitudes probed by FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC
In this paper, we employ electron density profiles derived by the GPS radio occultation experiment aboard the FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC (F3/C) satellites to examine the electron density on geographic latitudes of 40° ...

Multi-Step-Ahead Reservoir Inflow Forecasting by Artificial Intelligence Techniques
Taiwan is located in themonsoon zone of the North Pacific Ocean and experiences an average of 4-5 typhoons annually. The particular topography of Taiwan makes rivers short and steep, and thus rivers flow rapid...

DNA methylation and histone modification regulate silencing of epithelial cell adhesion molecule for tumor invasion and progression
Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM) is believed to have a critical role in carcinogenesis and cell proliferation. However, the association of Ep-CAM with cancer invasion and progression is less clear. W...

An analysis of retained austenite in austempered ductile iron
Data from the literature have been analyzed to understand aspects of the retained austenite in austempered ductile irons, especially its relationship with the transformation mechanism of bainite. The final and...

A Less Toxic Heparin Antagonist—Low Molecular Weight Protamine
A new thirteen amino acid peptide, named low molecular weight protamine (LMWP), was obtained through the enzymatic digestion of native protamine. Both in vitro and in vivo results showed that LMWP fully maintaine...

Bainite transformation temperatures in high-silicon steels
The bainite transformation temperatures of eight high-silicon steels were determined metallographically. The bainite start (B s ) temperatures, which define the ...

Stress-affected transformation to lower bainite
Experiments have been conducted on the formation of lower bainite under the influence of an externally applied stress. It was found that both the ferritic and cementite components of the microstructure respond...

Penetration force measurement of thin plates by laser doppler anemometry
An experimental method is developed by applying laser-Doppler anemometry (LDA) to measure the velocity history of a projectile impact on a target. The force history was obtained by assuming the projectile to b...

Feedback Control of Robot End-Effector Probable Position Error
In an earlier paper (Chang et al., 1988), a probabilistic model has been proposed for estimating the effect of process and measurement noises on the robot end-effector’s position error. In this paper, we show tha...

The Effects of Frictional Forces in Bending Cables
In this work the effects of the frictional forces involved in a steel cable subjected to axial and bending loads are studied. The results show that the cable bending-stiffness is affected more strongly by the ...

Probabilistic Estimate of Robot End-Effector’s Position Error Due to Process Noise
The expected position of the end effector attached to a robot often needs to be controlled so that it will remain on the planned trajectory [1]. But due to process noise and measurement errors, the end effecto...

Plastic Deformation and Diffusionless Phase Changes in Metals — the Gold-Cadmium Beta Phase
Diffusionless transformation in Au-Cd single crystals containing about 50 atomic pet Cd was investigated by means of X-ray analysis of the orientation relationships, electrical resistivity measurements, and mo...
