We describe a photonic waveguide where FRET is routed uni-directionally along a double-stranded DNA track. The efficiency of FRET is modulated by the supramolecular control of fluorophores along double-stranded DNA using fluorophore-tethered Pyrrole-Imidazole polyamides (PAs). We show that uni-directional FRET is enhanced by the complete assembly of each of the constituent parts, resulting in t...

This paper constitutes a re nement of the fuzzy uni cation algorithm based on fuzzy compatibility relations, which we have developed with the aim of including the data type fuzzy set in a logic programming environment which supports a family of in nitely-valued logics. To be precise, we treat the problem of fuzzy uni cation by focusing on the distinction between general and speci c knowledge. F...

The design methods for highly nonlinear wave loads on monopile structures has over the past years been extended with based pre-computed fully kinematics. Yet, slamming events of strong sea states cannot currently be predicted these methods. We here present a simple recipe application recent pressure impulse load model in combination kinematics and validate results against lab measurements uni- ...

Fungi have evolved a remarkable diversity of reproductive strategies. Some of these, most notably those of the model fungi, have been well studied but others are poorly understood. The latter is also true for uni-directional mating type switching, which has been reported in only five fungal genera, including Ceratocystis. Mating type switching allows a self-fertile fungal isolate to produce bot...

The selection of an adequate response reduction factor (R) in the seismic design a reinforced concrete building is critical to building’s response. To construct robust structure, R should be chosen based on resilience performance. Since no background was provided for factors, study focuses right factors relation functionality, performance level, and resilience. In this study, high-rise with mul...

The science of thermodynamics is concerned with understanding the properties of inanimate matter in so far as they are determined by changes in temperature. The Second Law asserts that in irreversible processes there is a uni-directional increase in thermodynamic entropy, a measure of the degree of uncertainty in the thermal energy state of a randomly chosen particle in the aggregate. The scien...

A number of neural network models and training procedures for time series prediction have been proposed in the technical literature. These models studied for different time-variant data sets have typically used uni-directional computation flow or its modifications. In this study, on the contrary, the concept of bi-directional computational style is proposed and applied to prediction tasks. A bi...

Abstract In this article an attempt has been made to determine the uni-directinal (001-direction) pressure effect on optical gain spectra and corresponding emission wavelength of a designed type-II nano-scale heterostructure based GaAsSb-InAs material system. As trial, range applied was kept as 1-3 GPa. On introducing uni-directional (in 1 GPa 3 GPa) QW heterostructure, is reduced significantly...
