    Micosporine-like Amino Acid (MAA) which can be found in fresh water and marine microalgae. its accumulation may have a role as a response to UV exposure. The accumulation of MAA was found in both artificial and solar UV radiation. No clear correlation between response of MAA to UV exposure. Simak Baca secara foneti

    Dynamic Spin Response for Heisenberg Ladders

    Full text link
    We employ the recently proposed plaquette basis to investigate static and dynamic properties of isotropic 2-leg Heisenberg spin ladders. Simple non-interacting multi-plaquette states provide a remarkably accurate picture of the energy/site and dynamic spin response of these systems. Insights afforded by this simple picture suggest a very efficient truncation scheme for more precise calculations. When the small truncation errors are accounted for using recently developed Contractor Renormalization techniques, very accurate results requiring a small fraction of the computational effort of exact calculations are obtained. These methods allow us to determine the energy/site, gap, and spin response of 2x16 ladders. The former two values are in good agreement with density matrix renormalization group results. The spin response calculations show that nearly all the strength is concentrated in the lowest triplet level and that coherent many-body effects enhance the response/site by nearly a factor of 1.6 over that found for 2x2 systems.Comment: 9 pages with two enclosed postscript figure

    Improved Dynamic Response of Buck Converter Using Fuzzy Controller

    Full text link
    This paper presents comparative performance of Buck Converter in both open as well as closed loop. With the help state equations Mathematical Model of Buck Converter is designed in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The obtained output response of open loop Buck Converter is sluggish, not optimum and consists of peak overshoots. PI Controller is used in closed loop model of Buck Converter. Output Voltage is compared with a reference signal, which then is processed through a controller (PI/Fuzzy). The obtained signal is superimposed with a carrier signal and given to switching device used. To further optimize the performance of Buck Converter and eliminate the peak overshoot present in output response, Fuzzy controller is used. Here Suguno type Fuzzy is used

    Dynamic Response of Suspended Underwater Systems

    A method is presented for analyzing the steady-state or stationary random heave response of suspended underwater systems. The nonlinear continuous system is replaced by a discretized pseudolinear system by means of an equation difference minimization technique. The resulting pseudolinear system is solved by an iterative scheme. An example of the application of the proposed method of analysis to a suspended hydrophone system is given. The example shows that the nonlinear pressure drag forces have a very significant effect on the over-all response of the system. The nature of the response is discussed and some practical conclusions are given

    Adaptive response and enlargement of dynamic range

    Full text link
    Many membrane channels and receptors exhibit adaptive, or desensitized, response to a strong sustained input stimulus, often supported by protein activity-dependent inactivation. Adaptive response is thought to be related to various cellular functions such as homeostasis and enlargement of dynamic range by background compensation. Here we study the quantitative relation between adaptive response and background compensation within a modeling framework. We show that any particular type of adaptive response is neither sufficient nor necessary for adaptive enlargement of dynamic range. In particular a precise adaptive response, where system activity is maintained at a constant level at steady state, does not ensure a large dynamic range neither in input signal nor in system output. A general mechanism for input dynamic range enlargement can come about from the activity-dependent modulation of protein responsiveness by multiple biochemical modification, regardless of the type of adaptive response it induces. Therefore hierarchical biochemical processes such as methylation and phosphorylation are natural candidates to induce this property in signaling systems.Comment: Corrected typos, minor text revision

    Dynamic response of one-dimensional interacting fermions

    Full text link
    We evaluate the dynamic structure factor S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) of interacting one-dimensional spinless fermions with a nonlinear dispersion relation. The combined effect of the nonlinear dispersion and of the interactions leads to new universal features of S(q,ω)S(q,\omega). The sharp peak Sqδ(ωuq)S\propto q\delta(\omega-uq), characteristic for the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, broadens up; S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) for a fixed qq becomes finite at arbitrarily large ω\omega. The main spectral weight, however, is confined to a narrow frequency interval of the width δωq2/m\delta\omega\sim q^2/m. At the boundaries of this interval the structure factor exhibits power-law singularities with exponents depending on the interaction strength and on the wave number qq

    Evaluation of an application for dynamic feeding of dairy cows

    Dynamic feeding is an innovative application for concentrate feeding of dairy cows. Daily individual settings are derived from the actual individual milk yield response to concentrate intake. This response is estimated using an adaptive dynamic linear model. Optimal daily individual settings for concentrate supply are directed to achieve the maximum gross margin milk returns minus concentrate costs. This response curve plays a key role in the application. The response curve is derived from a mechanistic model for milk production and can also be established empirically from daily milk yield development during early lactation when concentrate supply increase is linear. A test application for dynamic feeding ran for several months in 2008 and results from 145 cows at one farm on 17 December 2008 have been used to demonstrate the variation in individual response. The gross margin, milk returns minus concentrate costs, varied from 2.52 to 26.32 €/day. The estimated response parameters provide insight in variation between individuals concerning the effects of concentrate and base ration intake on daily milk yield. Economical and nutritional aspects can be evaluated for each individual. Individual dynamic feeding towards an economic optimum indicates that excessive changes in individual bodyweighti can be prevented

    Self-energy correction to dynamic polaron response

    Full text link
    We present the first order self-energy correction to the linear response coefficients of polaronic systems within the truncated phase space approach developed by the present authors. Due to the system-bath coupling, the external pertubation induces a retarded internal field which dynamically screens the external force. Whereas the effect on the mobility is of second order, dynamical properties such as the effective mass and the optical absorption are modified in first order. The Fr\"ohlich polaron is used to illustrate the results

    Dynamic response of structures constructed from smart materials

    Get PDF
    The dynamic analysis of structures constructed of homogeneous smart materials is greatly simplified by the observation that the eigenfunctions of such structures are identical to those of the same structures constructed entirely of purely elastic materials. The dynamic analysis of such structures is thus reduced to the analysis of the temporal behaviour of the eigenmodes of the structure. The theory is illustrated for both continuous and discrete structures using the generalization of 'positive position feedback' to distributed control
