Synthetic Biology

Synthetic Biology

Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary science that involves using principles from disciplines such as engineering, molecular biology, cell biology, and systems biology. It involves remodeling existing organisms from nature or constructing completely new synthetic organisms for applications such as protein or enzyme production, bioremediation, value-added macromolecule production, and the addition of desirable traits to crops, to name a few.

Modeling and Similitude

Modeling and Similitude

Scaled modeling is a fundamental technique in engineering, enabling the study of large and complex systems by creating smaller, manageable replicas that recreate critical characteristics of the original. In hydrology and civil infrastructure, for example, scaled models of dams help analyze water flow, turbulence, and pressure. This method allows for accurate predictions of real-world behavior within a controlled environment, significantly reducing the cost and time involved in full-scale...

Lagging Strand Synthesis

Lagging Strand Synthesis

During replication, the complementary strands in double-stranded DNA are synthesized at different rates. Replication first begins on the leading strand. Replication starts later, occurs more slowly, and proceeds discontinuously on the lagging strand.
There are several major differences between synthesis of the leading strand and synthesis of the lagging strand. 1) Leading strand synthesis happens in the direction of replication fork opening, whereas lagging strand synthesis happens in the...

Sequence Networks of Rotating Machines

Sequence Networks of Rotating Machines

A Y-connected synchronous generator, grounded through a neutral impedance, is designed to produce balanced internal phase voltages with only positive-sequence components. The generator's sequence networks include a source voltage that is exclusively in the positive-sequence network. The sequence components of line-to-ground voltages at the generator terminals illustrate this configuration.
Zero-sequence current induces a voltage drop across the generator's neutral impedance and other...

Rapidly Varying Flow

Rapidly Varying Flow

Rapidly varying flow (RVF) in open channels is characterized by abrupt changes in flow depth over a short distance, with the rate of depth change relative to distance often approaching unity. These flows are inherently complex due to their transient and multi-dimensional nature, making exact analysis difficult. However, approximate solutions using simplified models provide valuable insights into their behavior.Key Features of Rapidly Varying FlowRVF is commonly observed in scenarios involving...

Background:

Realistic crowds are crucial for virtual environments in special effects, gaming, and architectural visualization.
Existing crowd synthesis methods often focus on macroscale behavior, neglecting microscale realism.
Current example-based methods struggle with scene constraints and video sprite interactions.

Purpose of the Study:

Main Methods:

Segmenting pedestrians from input videos of natural crowds.
Introducing 'crowd tubes' for representing video objects and avoiding collisions.
Utilizing a conflict graph and maximal independent set for optimal crowd placement and constraint satisfaction.
Developing a prototype system for capture, analysis, synthesis, and control of video-based crowds.

Main Results:

Demonstration of a system capable of generating videos of crowds with diverse natural behaviors.
Successful synthesis of crowds that satisfy environmental constraints and avoid collisions.
Validation of the crowd tube representation for composing video billboards.

Conclusions:

The proposed method effectively synthesizes video-realistic crowds with realistic microscale details.
The approach overcomes limitations of previous techniques in handling scene constraints.
