Abstract

The rapid drawdown of reservoir may have a significant impact on the stability of adjacent slopes. In order to avoid potential risks, it is important to calculate the change of slope safety factor prior to the reservoir operation. The finite element method is used to analyze the transient seepage during drawdown, and then the pore water pressures are introduced into the stability computation based on limit equilibrium to obtain the transient safety factor. Computations show that for slopes with a specific geometry, the safety factor ratio depends on the parameters K/(Syv) (where K is the permeability coefficient, v is the drawdown speed, and Sy is the specific yield) and c′/(γHtan ϕ′) (where c′ and ϕ′ are the effective cohesion and friction angle, γ is the soil unit weight, and H is the slope height). By considering a wide range of K/(Syv) and c′/(γHtan ϕ′) values and different slope geometries, the percent reduction in critical safety factor of slope during drawdown relative to that during steady-state seepage is obtained. The drawdown condition that causes a large percent reduction in safety factor is judged as a rapid drawdown, and the opposite is a slow drawdown, which does not affect the slope design. This paper presents a series of charts for engineers and designers to judge rapid and slow drawdown conditions. Before the reservoir operation, the appropriate drawdown speed is selected according to the charts to ensure a slow drawdown for adjacent slope, while in the slope stabilization design, only the rapid drawdown stability analysis needs to be performed.

Abstract

Developing robust and reliable control code for autonomous mobile robots is difficult, because the interaction between a physical robot and the environment is highly complex, it is subject to noise and variation, and therefore partly unpredictable. This means that to date it is not possible to predict robot behaviour, based on theoretical models. Instead, current methods to develop robot control code still require a substantial trial-and-error component to the software design process. Such iterative refinement could be reduced, we argue, if a more profound theoretical understanding of robot-environment interaction existed. In this paper, we therefore presented a modelling method that generates a faithful model of a robot's behaviour. Because this modelling method--nonlinear modelling using polynomials--is commonly used in the engineering discipline of system identification, we refer to it here as "robot identification". We show in this paper that using identification to obtain a computer model of robot-environment interaction offers several distinct advantages: 1. Very compact representations (one-line programs) of the robot control program are generated 2. The model can be analysed, for example through sensitivity analysis, leading to a better understanding of the essential parameters underlying the robot's behavior, and 3. The generated, compact robot code can be used for cross-platform robot programming, allowing fast transfer of robot code from one type to another. We demonstrate these points through experiments with a Magellan Pro and a Nomad 200 mobile robot. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Raised blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Previous studies have identified 47 distinct genetic variants robustly associated with BP, but collectively these explain only a few percent of the heritability for BP phenotypes. To find additional BP loci, we used a bespoke gene-centric array to genotype an independent discovery sample of 25,118 individuals that combined hypertensive case-control and general population samples. We followed up four SNPs associated with BP at our p < 8.56 x 10(-7) study-specific significance threshold and six suggestively associated SNPs in a further 59,349 individuals. We identified and replicated a SNP at LSP1/TNNT3, a SNP at MTHFR-NPPB independent (r(2) = 0.33) of previous reports, and replicated SNPs at AGT and ATP2B1 reported previously. An analysis of combined discovery, and follow-up data identified SNPs significantly associated with BP at p < 8.56 x 10(-7) at four further loci (NPR3, FIFE, NOS3, and SOX6). The high number of discoveries made with modest genotyping effort can be attributed to using a large-scale yet targeted genotyping array and to the development of a weighting scheme that maximized power when meta-analyzing results from samples ascertained with extreme phenotypes, in combination with results from nonascertained or population samples. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and transcript expression data highlight potential gene regulatory mechanisms at the MTHFR and NOS3 loci. These results provide candidates for further study to help dissect mechanisms affecting BP and highlight the utility of studying SNPs and samples that are independent of those studied previously even when the sample size is smaller than that in previous studies. ispartof: American Journal of Human Genetics vol:89 issue:6 pages:688-700 ispartof: location:United States status: published

Foreign trade promotion--Africa, Import substitution--Africa, Free trade--Africa
Abstract

First published in 1998, this volume focuses on the relationship between trade policy and economic growth, one of the most controversial questions in the emerging paradigm on'international trade and economic development'. Authored by a senior monetary expert and a senior lecturer in finance, the question is explored through institutional and policy issues with examples from a sample of ten African countries, with special reference to Malawi and Zambia. Asking which trade regime is appropriate for promoting economic growth in developing countries, the book concludes by discussing the appropriate strategy for African countries.

Abstract

Nanotechnology has been recognized as the interesting subject of research and investigation in either theory or experiment for a decade, where many research works and implementations have shown the significant growth and progress in many related technologies. Recently, the use of a small waveguide known as micro and/nanoring resonators has shown the potential of applications in many research areas, especially, in computer, communication and signal processing in the nanoscale regime. This new book presents the immerging techniques that can be merged into one particular subject, which is known as Nano Communications Networks. In applications, such devices, techniques or systems can be integrated and used for some particular applications.
