Our new simple method for calculating accurate Franck-Condon factors including nondiagonal (i.e., mode-mode) anharmonic coupling is used to simulate the C2H4+X2B 3u←C2H4X̃1 Ag band in the photoelectron spectrum. An improved vibrational basis set truncation algorithm, which permits very efficient computations, is employed. Because the torsional mode is highly anharmonic it is separated from the other modes and treated exactly. All other modes are treated through the second-order perturbation theory. The perturbation-theory corrections are significant and lead to a good agreement with experiment, although the separability assumption for torsion causes the C2 D4 results to be not as good as those for C2 H4. A variational formulation to overcome this circumstance, and deal with large anharmonicities in general, is suggested

Heating and cooling temperature jumps (T-jumps) were performed using a newly developed technique to trigger unfolding and refolding of wild-type ribonuclease A and a tryptophan-containing variant (Y115W). From the linear Arrhenius plots of the microscopic folding and unfolding rate constants, activation enthalpy (ΔH#), and activation entropy (ΔS#) were determined to characterize the kinetic transition states (TS) for the unfolding and refolding reactions. The single TS of the wild-type protein was split into three for the Y115W variant. Two of these transition states, TS1 and TS2, characterize a slow kinetic phase, and one, TS3, a fast phase. Heating T-jumps induced protein unfolding via TS2 and TS3; cooling T-jumps induced refolding via TS1 and TS3. The observed speed of the fast phase increased at lower temperature, due to a strongly negative ΔH# of the folding-rate constant. The results are consistent with a path-dependent protein folding/unfolding mechanism. TS1 and TS2 are likely to reflect X-Pro114 isomerization in the folded and unfolded protein, respectively, and TS3 the local conformational change of the β-hairpin comprising Trp115. A very fast protein folding/unfolding phase appears to precede both processes. The path dependence of the observed kinetics is suggestive of a rugged energy protein folding funne

La dinàmica de fluids computacional (CFD) és una eina que serveix per analitzar mitjançant computadors diferents problemes que involucren fluxos de fluids. Els programes de CFD usen expressions matemàtiques no lineals que defineixen les equacions fonamentals de fluxos i transport de calor en fluids. Aquestes es resolen amb complexos algoritmes iteratius. Actualment aquesta eina és una part fonamental en els procés de disseny en moltes empreses relacionades amb la dinàmica de fluids. Les simulacions que es realitzen amb aquests programes s’ha demostrat que són fiables i que estalvien temps i diners, ja que eviten haver de realitzar els costosos processos d’assaig-error. En el projecte s’utilitza el programa de CFD Ansys CFX 11.0 per simular una agitació bifàsica composta per aigua i aire a temperatura ambient. Els objectius són determinar els paràmetres òptims de simulació que permetin recrear aquesta agitació, per posteriorment dissenyar un nou impulsor

Un bon sistema d’il.luminació juga un paper molt important per tal que els videojocs siguin realistes i atractius per a l’usuari. El projecte intenta optimitzar el sistema d’il.luminació de manera que la càrrega que representa per al sistema sigui inferior, sense haver de renunciar a la qualitat que tindríem sense fer servir aquest sistema. Amb dos objectius molt concrets: entendre i implementar l’algoritme de lightcuts i aconseguir una optimització en una escena utilitzant aquest algoritme

This paper presents the distributed environment for virtual and/or real experiments for underwater robots (DEVRE). This environment is composed of a set of processes running on a local area network composed of three sites: 1) the onboard AUV computer; 2) a surface computer used as human-machine interface (HMI); and 3) a computer used for simulating the vehicle dynamics and representing the virtual world. The HMI can be transparently linked to the real sensors and actuators dealing with a real mission. It can also be linked with virtual sensors and virtual actuators, dealing with a virtual mission. The aim of DEVRE is to assist engineers during the software development and testing in the lab prior to real experiments

A long development time is needed from the design to the implementation of an AUV. During the first steps, simulation plays an important role, since it allows for the development of preliminary versions of the control system to be integrated. Once the robot is ready, the control systems are implemented, tuned and tested. The use of a real-time simulator can help closing the gap between off-line simulation and real testing using the already implemented robot. When properly interfaced with the robot hardware, a real-time graphical simulation with a "hardware in the loop" configuration, can allow for the testing of the implemented control system running in the actual robot hardware. Hence, the development time is drastically reduced. These paper overviews the field of graphical simulators used for AUV development proposing a classification. It also presents NEPTUNE, a multi-vehicle, real-time, graphical simulator based on OpenGL that allows hardware in the loop simulations

This paper presents a control strategy for blood glucose(BG) level regulation in type 1 diabetic patients. To design the controller, model-based predictive control scheme has been applied to a newly developed diabetic patient model. The controller is provided with a feedforward loop to improve meal compensation, a gain-scheduling scheme to account for different BG levels, and an asymmetric cost function to reduce hypoglycemic risk. A simulation environment that has been approved for testing of artificial pancreas control algorithms has been used to test the controller. The simulation results show a good controller performance in fasting conditions and meal disturbance rejection, and robustness against model–patient mismatch and errors in meal estimation

Piecewise linear models systems arise as mathematical models of systems in many practical applications, often from linearization for nonlinear systems. There are two main approaches of dealing with these systems according to their continuous or discrete-time aspects. We propose an approach which is based on the state transformation, more particularly the partition of the phase portrait in different regions where each subregion is modeled as a two-dimensional linear time invariant system. Then the Takagi-Sugeno model, which is a combination of local model is calculated. The simulation results show that the Alpha partition is well-suited for dealing with such a system

La problemática tiene como eje central el “deficiente perfil profesional” alcanzado por los egresados de las Escuelas Técnicas Industriales (en adelante ETIs) del Estado Bolívar. Este insipiente perfil alcanzado nos indica la ausencia de las necesarias competencias que hoy reclama el vivir un paso después de la postmodernidad. En un mundo que exige más y mejores experticias en lo tecnológico, las competencias virtuales se hacen imprescindibles y al momento de buscar trabajo nos encontramos un mundo formado por ecosistemas tecnológicos que todo lo abraza. Al ahondar en el problema del “perfil profesional” encontramos que para entender las causas que han incidido en esta situación discrepante que afecta a los Técnicos Medios (TM) se requeriría necesariamente abordar varios aspectos, todos los cuales guardan estrecha vinculación en sí, y con el tema de investigación

Bimodal dispersal probability distributions with characteristic distances differing by several orders of magnitude have been derived and favorably compared to observations by Nathan [Nature (London) 418, 409 (2002)]. For such bimodal kernels, we show that two-dimensional molecular dynamics computer simulations are unable to yield accurate front speeds. Analytically, the usual continuous-space random walks (CSRWs) are applied to two dimensions. We also introduce discrete-space random walks and use them to check the CSRW results (because of the inefficiency of the numerical simulations). The physical results reported are shown to predict front speeds high enough to possibly explain Reid's paradox of rapid tree migration. We also show that, for a time-ordered evolution equation, fronts are always slower in two dimensions than in one dimension and that this difference is important both for unimodal and for bimodal kernels
