A significant challenge to the application of evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) for transonic airfoil design is the often excessive number of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations required to ensure convergence. In this study, a multiobjective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) framework is introduced, which incorporates designer preferences to provide further guidance in ...

We demonstrate an optically controlled polarizer at ~1323 nm using a ladder transition in a Rb vapor cell. The lower leg of the 5S(1/2),F = 1->5P(1/2),F = 1,2->6S(1/2),F = 1,2 transitions is excited by a Ti:Sapphire laser locked to a saturated absorption signal, representing the control beam. A tunable fiber laser at ~1323 nm is used to excite the upper leg of the transitions, representing the ...

Rev Esp Cardiol 2002;55(12):1323 1323 A 78-year-old man who had undergone coronary artery surgery in 1993 with the implantation of saphenous vein grafts to the right coronary and obtuse marginal coronary, and of the left internal mammary to the anterior descending coronary, presented episodes of angina pectoris at rest. Coronary angiography disclosed total occlusion of the 3 native vessels, cri...

Status updates on social networking sites are prolific. Literature in psychology suggests communicating personal status to oneself, and within a group, has benefits. We present different input (capture) and output (representations) of multi-dimensional wellbeing statuses, discuss quantitative and qualitative findings of an evaluation of the interfaces, and propose a course of work for future st...
