Solid-phase peptide synthesis in 384-well plates

Christian Heinis, Anne Sofie Luise Zarda, Alexander Lund Nielsen, Sevan Mleh Habeshian, Gontran Sangouard, Mischa Schüttel, Edward Jeffrey Will

Newer solid-phase peptide synthesis and release strategies enable the production of short peptides with high purity, allowing direct screening for desired bioactivity without prior chromatographic purification. However, the maximum number of peptides that ...

Azide-Containing Hypervalent Iodine Reagents for Biomolecules Functionalization

Raphaël Michel Henri Simonet-Davin

The goal of my PhD was the development of a new method for unselective surface labeling, not substrate-specific, that would give access to direct visualization of any surface interactions. In order to achieve this challenging goal, we wanted to develop a g ...

Tuning stiffness nonlinearty: theory and applications

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Perfect elasticity is not achievable in real-life situation, so spring stiffness is not perfectly constant. In this paper, we study the effect of modifying non-linear stiffness terms while keeping the nominal stiffness constant. We introduce three methods ...

Fiscal Policy, Relative Prices and Net Exports in a Currency Union

Luisa Lambertini, Christian Pröbsting

This paper studies the effects of fiscal policy on net exports, the terms of trade and expenditure switching. Using data on government spending and consumption taxes for twelve euro area countries over 1996 to 2018, it shows that fiscal austerity shocks im ...

Artificial Muscles: Dielectric Elastomers Responsive to Low Voltages

Yauhen Sheima

The lack of soft high-dielectric-permittivity elastomers responsive to a low voltage has been a long-standing obstacle for the industrialization of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) technology. Here, elastomers that not only possess a high dielectric pe ...

Human Kunitz-type protease inhibitor engineered for enhanced matrix retention extends longevity of fibrin biomaterials

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Hans Mattias Larsson, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Kristen Lorentz

Aprotinin is a broad-spectrum serine protease inhibitor used in the clinic as an anti-fibrinolytic agent in fibrin-based tissue sealants. However, upon re-exposure, some patients suffer from hypersensitivity immune reactions likely related to the bovine or ...

A linear programming approach to the optimization of residential energy systems

Jan Van Herle, Daniel Kuhn, Dirk Lauinger, Priscilla Caliandro

A decision-support tool (ORES) in the form of a linear program is developed to determine the optimal investment and operating decisions for residential energy systems. It shows how energy conversion units such as a cogeneration fuel cell, a heat pump, a bo ...

A Non-Parametric Approach to Demand Forecasting in Revenue Management

Shadi Sharif Azadeh

In revenue management, the profitability of the inventory and pricing decisions rests on the accuracy of demand forecasts. However, whenever a product is no longer available, true demand may differ from registered bookings, thus inducing a negative bias in ...

In silico assessment of the HPLC-UV response coefficients

Eric Albert Georges Bremond

A new in silica approach allowing to compute HPLC-UV response coefficients using Time Dependent-Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) is here reported. Based on the use of a non linear least squares with bound restricted algorithm, this model exploits theoret ...

Frequency capping in online advertising

Moran Feldman

We study the following online problem. There are n advertisers. Each advertiser has a total demand and a value for each supply unit. Supply units arrive one by one in an online fashion, and must be allocated to an agent immediately. Each unit is associated ...

Automatic Color Palette Creation from Words

Sabine Süsstrunk, Albrecht Johannes Lindner

We present an automatic framework to extract color palettes from words. This is a novel approach in comparison to existing solutions, e.g. manual creation or extraction from images. The associations between words and colors are deduced from a large databas ...

A rewarding-punishing coordination mechanism based on Trust in a divergent supply chain

Naoufel Cheikhrouhou

Coordination of decentralized supply chains using contract design is a problem that has been widely addressed in the literature. We consider a divergent supply chain including a supplier and several retailers producing fashion products with short sale seas ...

Hierarchical ordering of nests in a joint mode and destination choice model

Jeffrey Newman

This paper seeks to explore the relationship between mode and destination choice in an integrated nested choice model. A fundamental argument can be made that in certain circumstances, the ordering of choices should be reversed from the usual sequence of d ...

A drift-kinetic Semi-Lagrangian 4D code for ion turbulence simulation

Olivier Sauter, Laurent Villard

A new code is presented here, named Gyrokinetic SEmi-LAgragian (GYSELA) code, which solves 4D drift-kinetic equations for ion temperature gradient driven turbulence in a cylinder (r, theta, z). The code validation is performed with the slab ITG mode that o ...

Satisfying Customer Preferences via Mass Customization and Mass Production

Ralf Seifert

Two operational formats namely mass customization and mass production can be implemented to satisfy customer preference-based demand. The mass customization system consists of two stages: the initial build-to-stock phase and the final customize-to-order ph ...

HDR CFA Image Rendering

Sabine Süsstrunk, Laurence Meylan

We propose a method for high dynamic range (HDR) mapping that is directly applied on the color filter array (CFA) image instead of the already demosaiced image. This rendering is closer to retinal processing where an image is acquired by a mosaic of cones ...

A Gender-based Analysis of Work Trip Mode Choice of Suburban Montreal Commuters Using Stated Preference Data

Transportation literature suggests that men and women have different characteristics with respect to commuting patterns, as well as with respect to their propensity to switch between travel options. In North America, women are expected to have an increasin ...
