Picoinjection is a promising technique to add reagents into pre-formed emulsion droplets on chip however, it is sensitive to pressure fluctuation, making stable operation of the picoinjector challenging. We present a chip architecture using a simple pressure stabilizer for consistent and highly reproducible picoinjection in multi-step biochemical assays with droplets. Incorporation of the stabi...

The Pauli groups are ubiquitous in quantum information theory because of their usefulness in describing quantum states and operations and their readily understood symmetry properties. In addition, the most well-understood quantum error correcting codes—stabilizer codes—are built using Pauli operators. The eigenstates of these operators—stabilizer states—display a structure (e.g., mutual orthogo...

We report progress on the LU-LC conjecture—an open problem in the context of entanglement in stabilizer states (or graph states). This conjecture states that every two stabilizer states which are related by a local unitary operation , must also be related by a local operation within the Clifford group. The contribution of this paper is a reduction of the LU-LC conjecture to a simpler problem—wh...

A new metaheuristic method, the Gray Wolf optimizer algorithm based on the foraging behavior of Grey wolf is proposed in this paper for optimizing stabilizer parameters. The optimal stabilizer is applied to static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) for Inter-Area oscillation damping. There are two different channels for controlling of phase and magnitude of the injection voltage. When the SS...

Irganox 1010 stabilized PE was monitored by carbonyl build-up and DSC under oxygen. A scheme for PE stabilization by phenols was implemented and its kinetic parameters were calculated from experimental results. This model was validated from its ability to simulate kinetics curves for carbonyl build up, induction period changes with stabilizer concentration, and stabilizer depletion curve in the...

al., 2002; Gallagher and Koch, 2003). It is based on slow injection of stabilizing materials at the up-gradient edge Passive site stabilization is a new technology proposed for nondisof a site, with subsequent delivery of the stabilizer to ruptive mitigation of liquefaction risk at developed sites susceptible to liquefaction. This technology is based on the concept of slow injecthe target locat...

An indirect adaptive fuzzy power system stabilizer (IDFPSS) is proposed in this paper. It consists of A fuzzy identifier and a feedback linearizing controller. The objective is to damp local and inter-area oscillations that occur following power system disturbance. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is illustrated by applying the IDFPSS to a two-area four-machine system that is typical...

In this paper, a PID fuzzy controller structure is presented. To be successful in implementing fuzzy PID controllers in large applications we must also considered their operating principles. Fuzzy logic controllers are based on empirical control rules. A study case for the validation of the proposed tunning mechanism is presented and analyzed with control application for a synchronous generator...

The theory of stabilizer quantum error correction allows us to actively stabilize quantum states and simulate ideal quantum operations in a noisy environment. It is critical is to correctly diagnose noise from its syndrome and nullify it accordingly. However, hardware that performs quantum error correction itself is inevitably imperfect in practice. Here, we show that stabilizer codes possess a...
