In this paper, a zero-phase odd-harmonic repetitive control scheme is proposed for pulse-width modulation inverters. The proposed repetitive controller combines an odd-harmonic periodic generator… (More)
This paper explores how upper extremity skin temperatures correlate with overall-body thermal sensation and comfort. The study’s motivation was that skin temperature measurements of the finger, hand,… (More)
Dear Editor Recently, substantial studies have begun to explore the functional diversity and mechanistic roles of ncRNAs in mammals. Now, it has become increasingly apparent that ncRNAs are involved… (More)
1. Human subjects were exposed to partialand whole-body heating and cooling in a controlled environmental chamber to quantify physiological and subjective responses to thermal asymmetries and… (More)
We calculate the distribution function of the degree of polarization of an initially polarization scrambled signal propagating long distances in an optical fiber. We show that a significant… (More)
[1] In 2009 and 2010, a multistation network of fast and slow antennas was installed on the edge of a relatively high latitude forest region in Da Hinggan Ling (50.4°N, 124.1°E) of northeastern… (More)
Breast carcinoma is the most common female cancer with considerable metastatic potential. Signal transducers and activators of the transcription 3 (Stat3) signaling pathway is constitutively… (More)
Schizophrenia patients have shown altered resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) of the cingulate cortex; however, it is unknown whether rsFCs of the cingulate subregions are differentially… (More)
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have attracted tremendous attention in recent years. In this review, the recent developments are summarized in the synthesis, edge functionalization, and cyctotoxicity of… (More)
Increased nasopharyngeal colonization density has been associated with pneumonia. We used experimental human pneumococcal carriage to investigate whether upper respiratory tract viral infection… (More)
