Pharmacology of human experimental anxiety

This review covers the effect of drugs affecting anxiety using four psychological procedures for inducing experimental anxiety applied to healthy volunteers and patients with anxiety disorders. The first is aversive conditioning of the skin conductance responses to tones. The second is simulated public speaking, which consists of speaking in front of a video camera, with anxiety being measured with psychometric scales. The third is the Stroop Color-Word test, in which words naming colors are painted in the same or in a different shade, the incongruence generating a cognitive conflict. The last test is a human version of a thoroughly studied animal model of anxiety, fear-potentiated startle, in which the eye-blink reflex to a loud noise is recorded. The evidence reviewed led to the conclusion that the aversive conditioning and potentiated startle tests are based on classical conditioning of anticipatory anxiety. Their sensitivity to benzodiazepine anxiolytics suggests that these models generate an emotional state related to generalized anxiety disorder. On the other hand, the increase in anxiety determined by simulated public speaking is resistant to benzodiazepines and sensitive to drugs affecting serotonergic neurotransmission. This pharmacological profile, together with epidemiological evidence indicating its widespread prevalence, suggests that the emotional state generated by public speaking represents a species-specific response that may be related to social phobia and panic disorder. Because of scant pharmacological data, the status of the Stroop Color-Word test remains uncertain. In spite of ethical and economic constraints, human experimental anxiety constitutes a valuable tool for the study of the pathophysiology of anxiety disorders.

Pulssimuodon vaikutus valokaaren käytettävyyteen pulssi-MIG/MAG-hitsauksessa

Käytettävyydeltään huippuluokkaa olevan pulssi-MIG/MAG-hitsausvalokaaren toteuttaminen vaatii runsaasti tietoa eri pulssiparametreista ja niiden vaikutuksista hitsaukseen. Näihin vaikutuksiin liittyvä tieteellinen tutkimus on ollut melko vähäistä. Erityisesti tieto pulssimuodon vaikutuksista hitsausääneen on perustunut lähinnä kokemuksen tuomaan tuntumaan. Tässä diplomityössä tutkittiin pulssimuodon vaikutusta valokaaren käytettävyyteen pulssi-MIG/MAG-hitsauksessa. Käytettävyys käsittää tässä tapauksessa hitsausäänen, hitsin geometrian ja hitsausominaisuudet. Tutkimuksen alussa perehdyttiin kirjallisuuteen ja tuoreimpiin tutkimuksiin, jonka jälkeen vertailtiin erilaisia pulssimuotoja keskenään hitsauskokeiden avulla. Hitsausääneen ja hitsin geometriaan liittyvät kokeet suoritettiin mekanisoidusti. Hitsausääneen liittyvät mittaukset suoritettiin luokan 1 äänitasomittarilla ja tuloksia analysoitiin tietokoneohjelmistolla. Hitsien geometrioiden vertailu suoritettiin makrohietutkimuksena. Hitsausominaisuuksia tutkittiin suurnopeuskameran ja oskilloskoopin, sekä lopulta käsinhitsauskokeiden avulla. Kaikissa koevaiheissa pulssimuodon tarkasteluun käytettiin oskilloskooppia. Lisäksi käytössä oli toinen oskilloskooppi, jolla tarkasteltiin hitsausvirran spektriä. Pulssimuodon muokkaamiseen käytettiin erillistä tietokoneohjelmaa. Työn kokeellinen osuus keskittyi pulssi-MAG-hitsaukseen. Pulssimuotoa muokkaamalla saatiin aikaan miellyttävämpi hitsausääni. Lisäksi havaittiin, että pulssimuotoa muokkaamalla hitsistä saadaan kapeampi, jolloin juuritunkeumaa saavutetaan enemmän. Käsinhitsauskokeet osoittivat muokatun pulssimuodon olevan myös hitsaajan näkökulmasta käytettävyydeltään paras pulssimuoto. Erityisesti valokaaren vakaus ja kohdistuvuus sekä suurien hitsausnopeuksien sietokyky olivat muokatun pulssimuodon etuja. Selviä haittavaikutuksia pulssimuodon muokkaamiselle ei löydetty.

Eleohjaus Google Cardboard-virtuaaliympäristöön käyttäen älypuhelimen kameraa

Tässä opinnäytetyössä on toteutettu ja arvioitu virtuaalitodellisuuteen soveltuvaa käyttöliittymää. Motivaationa työlle oli Google Cardboardin mahdollistama todentuntuinen virtuaalikokemus älypuhelimen hinnalla. Cardboard-ympäristöön ei kuitenkaan ollut olemassa kattavaa käyttöliittymää ja tämän työn tavoitteena olikin selvittää, onko älypuhelimen kameraa mahdollista käyttää eleohjauksen toteuttamiseen niin että ohjaus on käytettävyydeltään kelvollinen ja se tukee läsnäolon tunteen syntymistä. Asian selvittämiseksi kehitettiin testipeli, jolla eleohjausta verrattiin Cardboardin oletuskäyttöliittymään. Koehenkilöt saavuttivat ehdotetulla käyttöliittymällä testipelissä keskimäärin 45-% korkeampia pistemääriä ja lisäksi he arvioivat sen olleen toimiva ja sen synnyttämän läsnäolon tunteen olleen voimakkaampaa.

Power Consumption Measurement and Scenario Based Energy Model in Wearable Computing Applications

The power is still today an issue in wearable computing applications. The aim of the present paper is to raise awareness of the power consumption of wearable computing devices in specific scenarios to be able in the future to design energy efficient wireless sensors for context recognition in wearable computing applications. The approach is based on a hardware study. The objective of this paper is to analyze and compare the total power consumption of three representative wearable computing devices in realistic scenarios such as Display, Speaker, Camera and microphone, Transfer by Wi-Fi, Monitoring outdoor physical activity and Pedometer. A scenario based energy model is also developed. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250 smartphone, the Vuzix M100 Smart Glasses and the SimValley Smartwatch AW-420.RX are the three devices representative of their form factors. The power consumption is measured using PowerTutor, an android energy profiler application with logging option and using unknown parameters so it is adjusted with the USB meter. The result shows that the screen size is the main parameter influencing the power consumption. The power consumption for an identical scenario varies depending on the wearable devices meaning that others components, parameters or processes might impact on the power consumption and further study is needed to explain these variations. This paper also shows that different inputs (touchscreen is more efficient than buttons controls) and outputs (speaker sensor is more efficient than display sensor) impact the energy consumption in different way. This paper gives recommendations to reduce the energy consumption in healthcare wearable computing application using the energy model.

Map matching by using inertial sensors: literature review

This literature review aims to clarify what is known about map matching by using inertial sensors and what are the requirements for map matching, inertial sensors, placement and possible complementary position technology. The target is to develop a wearable location system that can position itself within a complex construction environment automatically with the aid of an accurate building model. The wearable location system should work on a tablet computer which is running an augmented reality (AR) solution and is capable of track and visualize 3D-CAD models in real environment. The wearable location system is needed to support the system in initialization of the accurate camera pose calculation and automatically finding the right location in the 3D-CAD model. One type of sensor which does seem applicable to people tracking is inertial measurement unit (IMU). The IMU sensors in aerospace applications, based on laser based gyroscopes, are big but provide a very accurate position estimation with a limited drift. Small and light units such as those based on Micro-Electro-Mechanical (MEMS) sensors are becoming very popular, but they have a significant bias and therefore suffer from large drifts and require method for calibration like map matching. The system requires very little fixed infrastructure, the monetary cost is proportional to the number of users, rather than to the coverage area as is the case for traditional absolute indoor location systems.

Isolation of a yeast strain able to produce a polygalacturonase with maceration activity of cassava roots

The objective of the present study was the isolation of a yeast strain, from citrus fruit peels, able to produce a polygalacturonase by submerged fermentation with maceration activity of raw cassava roots. Among 160 yeast strains isolated from citrus peels, one strain exhibited the strongest pectinolytic activity. This yeast was identified as Wickerhamomyces anomalus by 5.8S-ITS RFLP analysis and confirmed by amplification of the nucleotide sequence. The yeast produced a polygalacturonase (PG) in Erlenmeyer shake flasks containing YNB, glucose, and citrus pectin. PG synthesis occurred during exponential growth phase, reaching 51 UE.mL-1 after 8 hours of fermentation. A growth yield (Yx/s) of 0.43 gram of cell dry weight per gram of glucose consumed was obtained, and a maximal specific growth rate (µm) of 0.346 h-1 was calculated. The microorganism was unable to assimilate sucrose, galacturonic acid, polygalacturonic acid, or citrus pectin, but it required glucose as carbon and energy source and polygalacturonic acid or citrus pectin as inducers of enzyme synthesis. The crude enzymatic extract of Wickerhamomyces anomalus showed macerating activity of raw cassava. This property is very important in the production of dehydrated mashed cassava, a product of regional interest in the province of Misiones, Argentina.

Morphological characterization with image analysis of cocoa beverage powder agglomerated with steam

In this study, the morphological characteristics of cocoa beverage powder granules under minimal, average, and maximal process conditions of a steam agglomerator were studied. a stereoscopic microscope coupled to a digital camera was used for the morphological analysis. The images were analyzed to obtain shape and size descriptors. aiming to evaluate the descriptors, 150 particles were analyzed. The results showed that there was no difference between the shape descriptors - compacity, circularity, roughness, and aspect ratio - in the operating conditions evaluated. It was observed that the cocoa beverage powder granules are elongated in shape. The size descriptors, area, perimeter, perimeter of convex bounding polygon, minimal and maximal Feret diameter, were different in the process conditions for the granules of size above 600 μm. as for the minimal process conditions, especially due to low solid feed rates, there is an increase in the size descriptor values. In addition, under the minimum process conditions, in which there is low solid feed rate (400g/min) for a steam pressure of 1.0 bar, it was obtained a good granular condition with retention of 81.1% of granules on sieves with aperture size between 300 and 1190 μm.

Seed anatomy and germination of Phoenix roebelenii O'Brien (Arecaceae)

The objective of this study was to investigate the morphology, anatomy and germination behaviour of Phoenix roebelenii seeds. Biometric data were obtained by measuring 100 seeds extracted from recently harvested fruits and air-dried for one day. Four replications of 50 seeds each were previously treated with Vitavax-Thiran and then put to germinate in Sphagnum sp. in plastic trays at room temperature. Morphological details of the seeds were documented with the help of a scanning electronic microscope and then drawings were made with the help of a clear camera coupled to a stereomicroscope. Permanent lamina containing embryo sections were prepared to study its anatomy. The mean dimensions of the seeds were: length of 10.32mm, width of 5.21mm and thickness of 3.91mm. The weight of one thousand seeds was of 151.1g and the mean number of units.kg-1 was 6,600. Germination started between 27 and 58 days after sowing. The seeds are of the albuminous type, the endosperm is hard and the embryo (which is not clearly differentiated) occupies a lateral and peripheral position. During seed germination, seedling protrusion begins with the opening of an operculum, through which the cotyledon petiole is emitted with the embryonic axis at its tip. The portion of the cotyledon petiole that remains inside the seeds acts as a haustorium for the absorption of nutrients from the endosperm. The plumule emerges through a rift in the posterior part of the cotyledon. Secondary roots are observed to grow from the anterior part of the primary root.

Inoculação de Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens em sementes de feijão por meio da técnica de condicionamento fisiológico

Neste estudo foi testada a técnica de condicionamento fisiológico em meio agarizado para inoculação de Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens (Cff) em sementes de feijão. Na primeira etapa, avaliou-se o comportamento das sementes de feijão cultivar Pérola, durante o pré-condicionamento osmótico em substrato agarizado com restrição hídrica. Os tratamentos consistiram em expor, por diferentes períodos de tempo, sementes de feijão desinfestadas a quatro níveis de restrição hídrica do meio 523 (-0,55, -0,75, -0,95 e -1,15 MPa), com o uso de quatro substratos (meio 523, meio 523+KCl, meio 523+manitol e meio 523+sacarose). Como testemunha, utilizou-se o meio 523 sem restrição hídrica (-0,55 MPa). Decorridos os respectivos tempos, avaliou-se a percentagem de sementes com protrusão radicular e, posteriormente, o teor de água, a germinação e os padrões enzimáticos das sementes. Na segunda etapa do estudo, avaliou-se o crescimento de quatro isolados de Cff (Cff DF - Feij-2936, Cff PR - 12768, Cff SC - Feij-2928 e Cff SP - Feij-2634) em substrato agarizado com restrição hídrica. Os tratamentos da terceira etapa foram definidos com base na primeira etapa, em que o melhor tratamento foi o meio 523 com manitol no potencial hídrico de -0,95 MPa e com 48 horas de exposição das sementes no meio agarizado. Na segunda etapa, verificou-se que o isolado de Cff SC (Feij-2928), proveniente do estado de Santa Catarina, apresentou o melhor crescimento no substrato e no potencial hídrico definido na primeira etapa. Portanto, foi possível a inoculação artificial de sementes de feijão com Cff por meio da técnica de condicionamento fisiológico em substrato agarizado, sem o comprometimento de sua qualidade fisiológica.

Dynamic modeling and simulation of the airflow cleaning device

The objective of the work is to study the flow behavior and to support the design of air cleaner by dynamic simulation.In a paper printing industry, it is necessary to monitor the quality of paper when the paper is being produced. During the production, the quality of the paper can be monitored by camera. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the camera lens clean as wood particles may fall from the paper and lie on the camera lens. In this work, the behavior of the air flow and effect of the airflow on the particles at different inlet angles are simulated. Geometries of a different inlet angles of single-channel and double-channel case were constructed using ANSYS CFD Software. All the simulations were performed in ANSYS Fluent. The simulation results of single-channel and double-channel case revealed significant differences in the behavior of the flow and the particle velocity. The main conclusion from this work are in following. 1) For the single channel case the best angle was 0 degree because in that case, the air flow can keep 60% of the particles away from the lens which would otherwise stay on lens. 2) For the double channel case, the best solution was found when the angle of the first inlet was 0 degree and the angle of second inlet was 45 degree . In that case, the airflow can keep 91% of particles away from the lens which would otherwise stay on lens.

A reaction engineering approach to homogeneously catalyzed glycerol hydrochlorination

The production of biodiesel through transesterification has created a surplus of glycerol on the international market. In few years, glycerol has become an inexpensive and abundant raw material, subject to numerous plausible valorisation strategies. Glycerol hydrochlorination stands out as an economically attractive alternative to the production of biobased epichlorohydrin, an important raw material for the manufacturing of epoxy resins and plasticizers. Glycerol hydrochlorination using gaseous hydrogen chloride (HCl) was studied from a reaction engineering viewpoint. Firstly, a more general and rigorous kinetic model was derived based on a consistent reaction mechanism proposed in the literature. The model was validated with experimental data reported in the literature as well as with new data of our own. Semi-batch experiments were conducted in which the influence of the stirring speed, HCl partial pressure, catalyst concentration and temperature were thoroughly analysed and discussed. Acetic acid was used as a homogeneous catalyst for the experiments. For the first time, it was demonstrated that the liquid-phase volume undergoes a significant increase due to the accumulation of HCl in the liquid phase. Novel and relevant features concerning hydrochlorination kinetics, HCl solubility and mass transfer were investigated. An extended reaction mechanism was proposed and a new kinetic model was derived. The model was tested with the experimental data by means of regression analysis, in which kinetic and mass transfer parameters were successfully estimated. A dimensionless number, called Catalyst Modulus, was proposed as a tool for corroborating the kinetic model. Reactive flash distillation experiments were conducted to check the commonly accepted hypothesis that removal of water should enhance the glycerol hydrochlorination kinetics. The performance of the reactive flash distillation experiments were compared to the semi-batch data previously obtained. An unforeseen effect was observed once the water was let to be stripped out from the liquid phase, exposing a strong correlation between the HCl liquid uptake and the presence of water in the system. Water has revealed to play an important role also in the HCl dissociation: as water was removed, the dissociation of HCl was diminished, which had a retarding effect on the reaction kinetics. In order to obtain a further insight on the influence of water on the hydrochlorination reaction, extra semi-batch experiments were conducted in which initial amounts of water and the desired product were added. This study revealed the possibility to use the desired product as an ideal “solvent” for the glycerol hydrochlorination process. A co-current bubble column was used to investigate the glycerol hydrochlorination process under continuous operation. The influence of liquid flow rate, gas flow rate, temperature and catalyst concentration on the glycerol conversion and product distribution was studied. The fluid dynamics of the system showed a remarkable behaviour, which was carefully investigated and described. Highspeed camera images and residence time distribution experiments were conducted to collect relevant information about the flow conditions inside the tube. A model based on the axial dispersion concept was proposed and confronted with the experimental data. The kinetic and solubility parameters estimated from the semi-batch experiments were successfully used in the description of mass transfer and fluid dynamics of the bubble column reactor. In light of the results brought by the present work, the glycerol hydrochlorination reaction mechanism has been finally clarified. It has been demonstrated that the reactive distillation technology may cause drawbacks to the glycerol hydrochlorination reaction rate under certain conditions. Furthermore, continuous reactor technology showed a high selectivity towards monochlorohydrins, whilst semibatch technology was demonstrated to be more efficient towards the production of dichlorohydrins. Based on the novel and revealing discoveries brought by the present work, many insightful suggestions are made towards the improvement of the production of αγ-dichlorohydrin on an industrial scale.

Control of Bubbling Fluidized Bed Conditions

The objectives of this master’s thesis were to understand the importance of bubbling fluidized bed (BFB) conditions and to find out how digital image processing and acoustic emission technology can help in monitoring the bed quality. An acoustic emission (AE) measurement system and a bottom ash camera system were evaluated in acquiring information about the bed conditions. The theory part of the study describes the fundamentals of BFB boiler and evaluates the characteristics of bubbling bed. Causes and effects of bed material coarsening are explained. The ways and methods to monitor the behaviour of BFB are determined. The study introduces the operating principles of AE technology and digital image processing. The empirical part of the study describes an experimental arrangement and results of a case study at an industrial BFB boiler. Sand consumption of the boiler was reduced by optimization of bottom ash handling and sand feeding. Furthermore, data from the AE measurement system and the bottom ash camera system was collected. The feasibility of these two systems was evaluated. The particle size of bottom ash and the changes in particle size distribution were monitored during the test period. Neither of the systems evaluated was ready to serve in bed quality control accurately or fast enough. Particle size distributions according to the bottom ash camera did not correspond to the results of manual sieving. Comprehensive interpretation of the collected AE data requires much experience. Both technologies do have potential and with more research and development they may enable acquiring reliable and real-time information about the bed conditions. This information could help to maintain disturbance-free combustion process and to optimize bottom ash handling system.

Remote Observation of Radioactive Permit-Required Confined Spaces – Case: Posiva Oy’s Fuel Handling Cell

Posiva Oy’s final disposal facility’s encapsulation plant will start to operate in the 2020s. Once the operation starts, the facility is designed to run more than a hundred years. The encapsulation plant will be first of its kind in the world, being part of the solution to solve a global issue of final disposal of nuclear waste. In the encapsulation plant’s fuel handling cell the spent nuclear fuel will be processed to be deposited into the Finnish bedrock, into ONKALO. In the fuel handling cell, the environment is highly radioactive forming a permit-required enclosed space. Remote observation is needed in order to monitor the fuel handling process. The purpose of this thesis is to map (Part I) and compare (Part II) remote observation methods to observe Posiva Oy’s fuel handling cell’s process, and provide a possible theoretical solution for this case. Secondary purpose for this thesis is to provide resources for other remote observation cases, as well as to inform about possible future technology to enable readiness in the design of the encapsulation plant. The approach was to theoretically analyze the mapped remote observation methods. Firstly, the methods were filtered by three environmental challenges. These are the high levels of radiation, the permit-required confined space and the hundred year timespan. Secondly, the most promising methods were selected by the experts designing the facility. Thirdly, a customized feasibility analysis was created and performed on the selected methods to rank the methods with scores. The results are the mapped methods and the feasibility analysis scores. The three highest scoring methods were radiation tolerant camera, fiberscope and audio feed. A combination of these three methods was given as a possible theoretical solution for this case. As this case is first in the world, remote observation methods for it had not been thoroughly researched. The findings in this thesis will act as initial data for the design of the fuel handling cell’s remote observation systems and can potentially effect on the overall design of the facility by providing unique and case specific information. In addition, this thesis could provide resources for other remote observation cases.
