    Notes: Abstract This paper describes a method for learning flexible concepts, by which are meant concepts that lack precise definition and are context-dependent. To describe such concepts, the method employs a two-tiered representation, in which the first tier captures explicitly basic concept properties, and the second tier characterizes allowable concept's modifications and context dependency. In the proposed method, the first tier, called Base Concept Representation (BCR), is created in two phases. In phase 1, the AQ-15 rule learning program is applied to induce a complete and consistent concept description from supplied examples. In phase 2, this description is optimized according to a domain-dependent quality criterion. The second tier, called the inferential concept interpretation (ICI), consists of a procedure for flexible matching, and a set of inference rules. The proposed method has been implemented in the POSEIDON system, and experimentally tested on two real-world problems: learning the concept of an acceptable union contract, and learning voting patterns of Republicans and Democrats in the U.S. Congress. For comparison, a few other learning methods were also applied to the same problems. These methods included simple variants of exemplar-based learning, and an ID-3-type decision tree learning, implemented in the ASSISTANT program. In the experiments, POSEIDON generated concept descriptions that were both, more accurate and also substantially simpler than those produced by the other methods.

    Notes: Long-chain unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) can easily be converted on a microgram scale to the corresponding 2-alkenyl-4,4-dimethyloxazolines by condensation with 2-amino-2-methylpropanol (AMP). These modified molecules with a ‘hidden’ carboxyl group have been proved to be a class of useful derivatives for gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) of UFA mixtures. While possessing very good GC characteristics, the title compounds show regular, well-recognizable diagnostic ion peaks of the double bond position in the chain. Detailed description of the method as well as electron impact (E1) mass spectra of derivatives resulting from mono-, di and polyenoic (maximally containing six double bonds) acids are presented.

    Notes: Negative-ion fast-atom bombardment mass spectra of free and conjugated bile acids are dominated by [M — H]- pseudomolecularions. Collision-induced dissociations of these pseudomolecular ions give charge-remote fragmentation patterns which are useful for structural identification. Taurine (2-aminoethanesulrtionic acid)-conjugated bile acids have a high cross-section for charge-remote fragmentation, and give the most informative and intense spectra among the naturally occurring bile acids. In the present study, collision-induced dissociation spectra of bile acids derivatized with different aliphatic and aromatic aminosulphonates, and with 2-amlnoethyl hydrogen sulphate have been compared. All show charge-remote fragmentation patterns. Determination of the intensities of the fragment ions shows that the highest sensitivity is usually obtained with aromatic aininosulpho-nate derivatives.

    Notes: The value of in situ monitoring to study growth dynamics and surface reaction kinetics in a gas source molecular beam epitaxy process is illustrated with reference to the growth of Si films on Si(001) substrates using a beam of disilane (Si2H6). By using a combination of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and reflection anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS), we show first how morphological (long-range order) and local electronic structure effects can be separated in the evaluation of growth dynamics. This involves the measurement of step density changes by RHEED concomitantly with the variation in domain coverage on the Si(001) (2×1)+(1×2) reconstructed surface by RAS. This approach is then extended to investigate the kinetics of hydrogen desorption, which is the rate-limiting step in Si growth from Si2H6. It is shown that over a significant temperature range, zeroth-order kinetics are obeyed and this is explained on the basis of a step-mediated desorption process. Finally we show how this influences the growth rate on substrates of differing degrees of vicinality. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A study was carried out to examine the effect of removing the size from the surface of glass fibers in order to determine its role with respect to thermoxidative aging. Dynamic mechanical relaxation data have revealed that mechanical losses were always greater than the calculated upper bound values. The effects of removing the size from the surface glass fibers for epoxy matrix composites were found to be completely different when a fluoroligomer was used to modify the resin. Contrary to the case of the conventional epoxy resin, the characteristics of the composites containing fluoroligomer-modified resin were found to be insensitive to the removal of the size from the glass fibers surface. The presence of the size on the surface of the fibers provides an interlayer that degrades through the formation of more lightly crosslinked products than the matrix, thereby providing a large increase in dynamic mechanical losses after thermal aging. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We present in this article the use of infrared laser radiation to achieve localized curing in thermosensitive epoxy resin compounds. In stereolithography, the objective is to cure a localized region in a material by precisely confining the laser energy to the area that is to be cured. Industry already uses ultraviolet laser radiation at 352 nm to fabricate three-dimensional structures. Via infrared laser curing, we demonstrate the viability of a completely thermal localized curing process. In our experiment, we have focused the beam from a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser onto a sample composed of epoxy resin, diethylene triamine, and silica powder. Such resins typically cure, or solidify, when heated to moderately high temperatures, and our results show that we can confine the heating of the material, and, therefore, its curing in all three dimensions. We present a physical and a chemical model to describe the process and measure the curing rate as a function of temperature. In order to model the flow of heat in our sample as a result of infrared laser irradiation, we solved the time-dependent heat equation in cylindrical coordinates using the Crank-Nicholson finite-difference method. The results allow us to predict the curing behavior of the sample as a function of laser irradiation conditions, and we find good agreement with our preliminary experimental observations. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The baculovirus/insect cell expression system has provided a vital tool to produce a high level of active proteins for many applications. We have developed a very high-density insect cell perfusion process with an ultrasonic filter as a cell retention device. The separation efficiency of the filter was studied under various operating conditions. A cell density of over 30 million cells/mL was achieved in a controlled perfusion bioreactor and cell viability remained greater than 90%. Sf9 cells from a high-density culture and a spinner culture were infected with two recombinant baculoviruses expressing genes for the production of human chitinase and monocyte-colony inhibition factor. The protein yield on a cell basis from infecting high-density Sf9 cells was the same as or higher than that from the spinner Sf9 culture. Virus production from the high-density culture was similar to that from the spinner culture. The results show that the ultrasonic filter did not affect insect cells' ability to support protein expression and virus production following infection with baculovirus. The potential applications of the high-density perfusion culture for large-scale protein expression from Sf9 cells are also highlighted. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Optically active isotactic polychloral was prepared in which the optical activity comes exclusively from molecular asymmetry (i.e., helical conformation). Molecular asymmetry requires a high conformational energy barrier for the polymer backbone, and an asymmetric initiator to induce a predominance of one helical screw-sense. Polychloral meets the criteria. Asymmetric initiators used to obtain optically active polychloral include tetramethyl ammonium (+)- or (-)-0-acetylmandelate, tetramethylammonium (+)- or (-)-0-methylmandelate, the lithiumalkoxides of methyl (+)- or (-)-mandelate, lithium cholesten-3β-oxide, lithium cholestan-3β-oxide, and lithium (+)- or (-)-2-octanoxide. Using the above initiators at 0.5 mol %, a maximum specific rotation of [α] D25 = 5000 was obtained for polychloral. Errors in specific rotation were typically ±7%.

    Description / Table of Contents: Strukturelle Prinzipien bei den höheren Oxiden der Seltenen ErdenZur Aufklärung der strukturellen Prinzipien der Fluorit-verwandten homologen Serie höherer Selten-Erd-Oxide mit Anionen-Unterschuß war die Bestimmung einer hinreichenden Anzahl ihrer Strukturen vonnöten. Neuere Strukturverfeinerungen an fünf weiteren Mitgliedern dieser Serie erlauben eine Reihe von allgemeingültigen Aussagen über ihr Kristallisationsverhalten. Über diese generellen Prinzipien wird berichtet. Darüber hinaus wird, auf der Grundlage des Fluorittyps, ein phänomenologisches Prinzip vorgestellt, das erstens alle bekannten und möglichen Phasen in diesem fluoritverwandten Systemen durch eine Formel miteinander verknüpft, zweitens alle bekannten Strukturen richtig wiedergibt und drittens uns in die Lage versetzt, Modelle für alle noch unbekannten Strukturen oder Polymorphe dieser Serie abzuleiten. Benötigt werden hierzu lediglich Elektronenbeugungsaufnahmen, die die Bestimmung der Überstrukturzelle zulassen sowie eine Vorstellung über die Zusammensetzung.
    Notes: The structural principle that accounts for the aniondeficient, fluorite-related homologous series of higher rare earth oxides has awaited the determination of a sufficient number of their structures to test hypotheses. Recent structure refinement of five additional members has permitted extraction of a number of generalizations concerning their crystallization behavior. These general principles are outlined. Furthermore, based on the fluorite structure itself, a phenomenological structural principle is outlined that (1) unifies all known and possible phases in these fluorite-related systems under one generic formula, (2) models all known structures correctly and (3) enables modeling of any unknown structure or polymorph in the series. All that is required are electron diffraction patterns adequate to determine the supercell and a knowledge of its composition.
