Standoff enrichment analysis of UF6 cylinders

IAEA-CN-220-279 Alternatives to Truncated Multiplicity Analysis to Improve Verification of Uranium Fuel Cycle Materials

More accurate verification of U enrichment and mass in UF6 storage cylinders and of UO2F2 holdup contained in process equipment is needed to improve international safeguards and nuclear material accountancy at uranium enrichment plants. Small UF6 cylinders (1.5” and 5” diameter) are used to store the full range of enrichments from depleted to highly-enriched UF6. For independent verification of...

Temperature-Dependent Buckling Analysis of Functionally Graded Sandwich Cylinders

This study is limited to study of buckling analysis of a sandwich cylindrical shell with functionally graded face sheets and homogenous core. High-order sandwich plate theory is improved by considering the in-plane stresses of the core that usually are ignored in the analysis of sandwich structures. Assume that all properties of the face sheets and the core are temperature dependent. Strain com...

Systematic enrichment analysis of microRNA expression profiling studies in endometriosis

Objective(s): The purpose of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis on human microRNAs (miRNAs) expression data of endometriosis tissue profiles versus those of normal controls and to identify novel putative diagnostic markers. Materials andMethods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid Medline were used to search for endometriosis miRNA expression profiling studies of endometriosis. The miRN...

Extending standoff annotation

Information encoding is often complex. Textual information is sometimes accompanied by additional encodings (such as visuals). These multimodal documents may be interesting objects of investigation for linguistics. Another class of complex documents are pre-annotated documents. Classic XML inline annotation often fails for both document classes because of overlapping markup. However, standoff a...
