Abstract:
The acoustic startle and trigeminal blink reflexes share the same motor output. Since caffeine has been shown to augment the startle reflex, it was proposed that caffeine would also increase the trigeminal blink reflex. In 6 humans, the effects of caffeine (100 mg) on the trigeminal blink reflex were investigated. Reflex blinks were elicited by stimulation of the supraorbital branch of the trigeminal nerve. Following ingestion of caffeinated coffee, reflex blinks increased in amplitude and duration and occurred at a shorter latency than reflex blinks following ingestion of decaffeinated coffee. Since the blink reflex is a brainstem reflex, these results suggest that the psychomotor effects of caffeine facilitate brainstem processing.

Abstract:
A real-vehicle experiment was carried out to study the effects of in-vehicle information on driver workload, during which data of the driver blink duration and frequency were collected to check for discrepancies among drivers with and without vehicle navigation usage. In the meanwhile, the blink characteristics of drivers with vehicle navigation device mounted at three different positions were explored through image prompt or image & sound multi-channel simultaneous prompt. Experimental results showed that when the data of blink with a duration of 0-200ms was distributed at a 10ms interval, the driver blink count distribution curve shows obvious bimodal characteristics. The peak of blink with 50-60ms duration was lower than that with 10-20ms duration when vehicle navigation was not used, and higher when vehicle navigation was used. The difference between medium and long blinks was not significant when the navigation device was mounted at different positions, yet the short blinks showed a significant difference. The peaks of blink count without voice navigation were all greater than those with voice navigation. In particular, without voice navigation, the short blinks increased obviously, and the medium blinks increased relatively, but the long blinks remained almost unchanged. The above results indicate that the driver workload was greater when using vehicle navigation. When the navigation device is installed in position B, the driver workload reaches the minimum. Using voice navigation could reduce driver workload.

Abstract:
In this article, we have proposed a novel tool that helps to objectively quantify eye blink rate. Using the proposed algorithm, a threshold for normal blink rate can be set to test those who have to reduce eye blink rate and are prone to ocular surface dryness. The statistical results show excellent agreement between software-detected number of blinks and visually measured with 90% accuracy for the participants. In addition, the comparison between our tool and other approaches of eye blink monitoring shows that our tool is competitive with only 5% wasted blinks.

Abstract:
We recorded the smooth-pursuit eye movements of monkeys in response to targets that were extinguished (blinked) for 200 ms in mid-trajectory. Eye velocity declined considerably during the target blinks, even when the blinks were completely predictable in time and space. Eye velocity declined whether blinks were presented during steady-state pursuit of a constant-velocity target, during initiation of pursuit before target velocity was reached, or during eye accelerations induced by a change in target velocity. When a physical occluder covered the trajectory of the target during blinks, creating the impression that the target moved behind it, the decline in eye velocity was reduced or abolished. If the target was occluded once the eye had reached target velocity, pursuit was only slightly poorer than normal, uninterrupted pursuit. In contrast, if the target was occluded during the initiation of pursuit, while the eye was accelerating toward target velocity, pursuit during occlusion was very different from normal pursuit. Eye velocity remained relatively stable during target occlusion, showing much less acceleration than normal pursuit and much less of a decline than was produced by a target blink. Anticipatory or predictive eye acceleration was typically observed just prior to the reappearance of the target. Computer simulations show that these results are best understood by assuming that a mechanism of eye-velocity memory remains engaged during target occlusion but is disengaged during target blinks.

Abstract:
To evaluate the blinking pattern during and after cognitive processing, 10 subjects' eyeblinks were recorded by a videotape recording camera placed 100 cm from the subjects' side. The subjects' task was to discriminate two kinds of auditory tones presented serially and to discriminate two kinds of visual stimuli presented serially. Treatments were composed of the baseline condition preexperiment, the visual task with no discrimination, the visual discriminative task, the auditory task with no discrimination, and the auditory discriminative task. The blink rate in each treatment, the temporal distribution of blinks poststimulus, and the blink waveform were evaluated. Although blinks were not inhibited during tasks, frequent blinks after tasks were observed in both modalities. Blinks concentrated between 300 msec. and 800 msec. after the discriminated stimulus and formulated the blink-rate peak. The closing velocity of lid in the blink rate peak was lower after auditory stimulus. Moreover, the lid's opening velocity after the auditory discrimination was higher. These results indicated that the eyelid closed slowly and opened quickly after the auditory discriminative stimulus.

Abstract:
Saccadic eye movements are thought to be influenced by blinking through premotor interactions, but it is still unclear how. The present paper describes the properties of blink-associated eye movements and quantifies the effect of reflex blinks on the latencies, metrics, and kinematics of saccades in the monkey. In particular, it is examined to what extent the saccadic system accounts for blink-related perturbations of the saccade trajectory. Trigeminal reflex blinks were elicited near the onset of visually evoked saccades by means of air puffs directed on the eye. Reflex blinks were also evoked during a straight-ahead fixation task. Eye and eyelid movements were measured with the magnetic-induction technique. The data show that saccade latencies were reduced substantially when reflex blinks were evoked prior to the impending visual saccades as if these saccades were triggered by the blink. The evoked blinks also caused profound spatial-temporal perturbations of the saccades. Deflections of the saccade trajectory, usually upward, extended up to ∼15°. Saccade peak velocities were reduced, and a two- to threefold increase in saccade duration was typically observed. In general, these perturbations were largely compensated in saccade mid-flight, despite the absence of visual feedback, yielding near-normal endpoint accuracies. Further analysis revealed that blink-perturbed saccades could not be described as a linear superposition of a pure blink-associated eye movement and an unperturbed saccade. When evoked during straight-ahead fixation, blinks were accompanied by initially upward and slightly abducting eye rotations of ∼2–15°. Back and forth wiggles of the eye were frequently seen; but in many cases the return movement was incomplete. Rather than drifting back to its starting position, the eye then maintained its eccentric orbital position until a downward corrective saccade toward the fixation spot followed. Blink-associated eye movements were quite rapid, albeit slower than saccades, and the velocity-amplitude-duration characteristics of the initial excursions as well as the return movements were approximately linear. These data strongly support the idea that blinks interfere with the saccade premotor circuit, presumably upstream from the neural eye-position integrator. They also indicated that a neural mechanism, rather than passive elastic restoring forces within the oculomotor plant, underlies the compensatory behavior. The tight latency coupling between saccades and blinks is consistent with an inhibition of omnipause neurons by the blink system, suggesting that the observed changes in saccade kinematics arise elsewhere in the saccadic premotor system.

Abstract:
Gerhard Richter, Sigmar Polke et Blinky Palermo apparaissent aujourd’hui comme des figures majeures de l’histoire de l’art contemporain allemand. Richter est unanimement reconnu pour l’étendue de sa pratique picturale qui, depuis le début des années soixante, explore tous les registres de la figurabilité à travers l’usage de la photographie, brisant les limites traditionnelles du médium et du style. Polke, bien qu’encore trop méconnu en France, bénéficie de nombreuses expositions dans le monde depuis la fin des années soixante. Sa disparition, en 2010, a suscité de la part de la critique un intérêt nouveau. A la monadologie de Polke, incarnée par la trame sérigraphique au crible de laquelle est passée la vie toute entière, répond la géométrie romantique d’un peintre presque totalement ignoré du public français : Blinky Palermo. Disparu prématurément en 1977, sa popularité - notamment en Allemagne et Etats-Unis – ne cesse de croître depuis le milieu des années soixante-dix. Qu’en est-il précisément de ces trois destins qui, dans les couloirs de l’école d’art de Düsseldorf en 1961 et le voisinage d’une figure chamanique - celle de Joseph Beuys – se sont un jour croisés ? Richter, Polke et Palermo ont d’abord été ces « junge Männer » en quête d’éternité qu’en 1982 chantait Alain Bashung dans son album Play Blessures. Le socle de notre recherche coïncide donc avec les questionnements d’une génération marquée par la culpabilité, le besoin de nouveaux horizons, la conscience de la catastrophe et l’ambiguïté du modèle américain. Richter, Polke et Palermo représentent à eux-seuls un pan entier de l’histoire et de l’art allemands
Gerhard Richter, Sigmar Polke and Blinky Palermo are emerging, since the middle of the sixties, as major artists in the context of German contemporary art. Richter is today widely celebrated for the breadth of his pictorial practice which, since the early sixties, explores all registers of painting through the use of photography, breaking the traditional boundaries of the medium and style. Polke, although still too little known in France, has many exhibitions around the world since the late sixties. His death in 2010 sparked criticism from a new interest. Polke’s Monadology, embodied by the reproduction of the Ben-Day Dots printing process, encounters the Euclidean geometry of a romantic painter almost totally ignored by the French public : Blinky Palermo. Died prematurely in 1977, his popularity - especially in Germany and the United States - is constantly growing since the mid-seventies. What precisely connects these three painters, in the neighborhood of the shamanic personality of Joseph Beuys? That is the question we solve. Richter, Polke and Palermo were first these "junge Männer" in search of eternity Alain Bashung in 1982 sang in his album Play Blessures. The rhythm of our research is given by the history of a generation marked by guilt, the need for new horizons, awareness of the disaster and the ambiguity of the American model. Richter, Polke and Palermo are on their own an entire part of history and German art

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2005.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 94-96).
An operational algorithm for blind angle control is developed to optimize the daylighting performance of a system of reflective Venetian blinds. Numerical modeling and experiment confirm that independent control of alternating blinds yields adequate visual comfort and daylight distribution to a distance of 10 m from the window under most clear sunny and overcast sky types. Under overcast sky conditions, all blinds are set to a uniform angle which optimizes light redirection to 10 m. For cases of direct solar incidence, alternating blinds are used for shading and light redirection and adjusted with changing solar position. For low solar angles, a set of blind angle configurations is developed utilizing blind-blind reflections to maximize light penetration.

Abstract:
In many applications, such as conversational agents, virtual reality, movies, and games, animated facial expressions of computer-generated (CG) characters are used to communicate, teach, or entertain. With an increased demand for CG characters, it is important to animate accurate, realistic facial expressions because human facial expressions communicate a wealth of information. However, realistically animating faces is challenging and time-consuming for two reasons. First, human observers are adept at detecting anomalies in realistic CG facial animations. Second, traditional animation techniques based on keyframing sometimes approximate the dynamics of facial expressions or require extensive artistic input while high-resolution performance capture techniques are cost prohibitive. In this thesis, we develop a framework to explore representations of two key facial expressions, blinks and smiles, and we show that data-driven models are needed to realistically animate these expressions. Our approach relies on utilizing high-resolution performance capture data to build models that can be used in traditional keyframing systems. First, we record large collections of high-resolution dynamic expressions through video and motion capture technology. Next, we build expression-specific models of the dynamic data properties of blinks and smiles. We explore variants of the model and assess whether viewers perceive the models as more natural than the simplified models present in the literature. In the first part of the thesis, we build a generative model of the characteristic dynamics of blinks: fast closing of the eyelids followed by a slow opening. Blinks have a characteristic profile with relatively little variation across instances or people. Our results demonstrate the need for an accurate model of eye blink dynamics rather than simple approximations, as viewers perceive the difference. In the second part of the thesis, we investigate how spatial and temporal linearities impact smile genuineness and build a model for genuine smiles. Our perceptual results indicate that a smile model needs to preserve temporal information. With this model, we synthesize perceptually genuine smiles that outperform traditional animation methods accompanied by plausible head motions. In the last part of the thesis, we investigate how blinks synchronize with the start and end of spontaneous smiles. Our analysis shows that eye blinks correlate with the end of the smile and occur before the lip corners stop moving downwards. We argue that the timing of blinks relative to smiles is useful in creating compelling facial expressions. Our work is directly applicable to current methods in animation. For example, we illustrate how our models can be used in the popular framework of blendshape animation to increase realism while keeping the system complexity low. Furthermore, our perceptual results can inform the design of realistic animation systems by highlighting common assumptions that over-simplify the dynamics of expressions.

Abstract:
Arbetet med musiken i förskolan används främst för att nå andra kunskaper, musikens innehållsliga mål tenderar att utebli. Studiens syfte är att analysera och beskriva förskolepersonals arbete med musikstunder i förskolan och synliggöra dess innehållsliga dimensioner, personalens syfte med musikstunder, deras iscensättning, samt hur detta hänger samman med deras tidigare erfarenheter av musik. Empirin är analyserad utifrån musikdidaktisk teori (Nielsen, 1998) och Musikskap (Holmberg, 2014), vilket är ett begrepp grundat i musikdidaktiken men utgår från förskolekontext istället för grundskola, där musikdidaktik har sin utgångspunkt. Då vi ville få syn på personalens syfte med arbetet med musiken gjordes en enkätundersökning vilken all personal som verkar i barngrupp fått svara på. Utifrån genererad empiri har en kvalitativ ansats, med kvantitativa inslag, använts för att analysera genererad empiri utifrån en abduktiv analysmetod. Valet av en kvalitativ ansats är gjord då enkäten utformats med främst öppna frågor vilket gav oss ett rikt svar från respondenterna. Då så pass många respondenter svarade på enkäten gavs också möjligheten att utifrån genererad empiri göra statistiska utdrag av kvantitativ karaktär. Det har i denna studie visat sig att respondenternas syfte med arbetet med musik i förskolan är att främst nå andra kunskaper med hjälp av musik. De respondenter som genomfört musikalisk utbildning i samband med förskollärarutbildning tenderar att lyfta musikens inommusikaliska mål när de svarar på vad syftet med arbetet med musik i förskolan är. Den mest förekommande aktivitetsformen under musikaktiviteter är sång, främst a cappella av reproducerande art.

Full text
Abstract:
Accidents caused by drivers’ drowsiness behind the steering wheel have a high fatality rate because of the discernible decline in the driver’s abilities of perception, recognition, and vehicle control abilities while sleepy. Preventing such accidents caused by drowsiness is highly desirable but requires techniques for continuously detecting, estimating, and predicting the level of alertness of drivers and delivering effective feedback to maintain maximum performance. The main objective of this research study is to develop a reliable metric and system for the detection of driver impairment due to drowsiness. More specifically, the goal of the research is to develop the best possible metric for detection of drowsiness, based on measures that can be detected during driving. This thesis describes the new studies that have been performed to develop, validate, and refine such a metric. A computer vision system is used to monitor the driver’s physiological eye blink behaviour. The novel application of green LED illumination overcame one of the major difficulties of the eye sclera segmentation problem due to illumination changes. Experimentation in a driving simulator revealed various visual cues, typically characterizing the level of alertness of the driver, and these cues were combined to infer the drowsiness level of the driver. Analysis of the data revealed that eye blink duration and eye blink frequency were important parameters in detecting drowsiness. From these measured parameters, a continuous measure of drowsiness, the New Drowsiness Scale (NDS), is derived. The NDS ranges from one to ten, where a decrease in NDS corresponds to an increase in drowsiness. Based upon previous research into the effects of drowsiness on driving performance, measures relating to the lateral placement of the vehicle within the lane are of particular interest in this study. Standard deviations of average deviations were measured continuously throughout the study. The NDS scale, based upon the gradient of the linear regression of standard deviation of average blink frequency and duration, is demonstrated as a reliable method for identifying the development of drowsiness in drivers. Deterioration of driver performance (reflected by increasingly severe lane deviation) is correlated with a decreasing NDS score. The final experimental results show the validity of the proposed model for driver drowsiness detection.

Abstract:
The "Vanishing and Appearing Sources during a Century of Observations" (VASCO) initiative aims at finding inexplicable effects among all-sky surveys. The VASCO project is a collaboration between astronomers and information technology researchers, and incorporates explicitly a component of citizen science. In an effort to efficiently mine the historical sky survey observations, an implementation of the ML-Blink algorithm - a machine learning algorithm which uses a data-driven approach to attempt to learn what features characterize interesting candidates - is proposed and evaluated as means to recommend interesting candidates from the historical sky survey observations. The proposed ML-Blink algorithm implementation consistently achieves an area under the curve in the 0.70 range and finds 2-4 artificial anomalies out of 7 in a dataset consisting 5005 observations from the USNO-B1.0 and Pan-STARRS1 datasets.

Abstract:
When maintaining equipment or piping, it must be isolated to assure a safe working environment. Separating flange pairs and inserting a blind flange against the process side prevents hazardous substances from entering the work area. Slip blinds are often used for this type of service. Slip blinds, however, are generally limited to low pressure service since at excessive pressures the blind will become dished and may leak or become impossible to remove. In this paper, slip blinds of various sizes were hydrostatically tested to determine their deformation as a function of pressure. Nonlinear finite element analysis was used to determine the theoretical deformation of slip blinds. The goal of the testing and FEA was to determine the pressure required to permanently deform a 1/4” thick slip blind by one half its thickness.

Full text
Abstract:
Top Down – Bottom Up blinds have become quite popular in recent times. However the effects of such blind systems on the convective heat transfer from the window to the surrounding room have not been extensively studied and the effect of solar irradiation of the blind on the window heat transfer has not received significant attention. The purpose of the present work was therefore to numerically investigate the effect of solar irradiation of Top Down – Bottom Up slatted blinds on this convective heat transfer. An approximate model of the window-blind system has been adopted. The solar radiation falling on the blinds is assumed to produce a uniform rate of heat generation in the blind. The Boussinesq approximation has been used. Radiant heat transfer effects have been neglected. Conditions under which laminar, transitional and turbulent flows occur have been considered. The main emphasis is on the effect of the magnitude of the irradiation and of the size of the blind openings at the top and bottom of the window on the convective heat transfer rate from the window to the room.

Full text
Abstract:
Double skin facades (DSFs) are building envelopes comprised of two glass facades, a ventilated air cavity and shading devices placed within the cavity. In this paper airflow and heat transfer simulation was conducted for a DSF system equipped with a venetian blind using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with RNG turbulence model. Simulation was done for a three-level combination of slat tilt angle and blind position. The heat transfer coefficient was directly obtained from CFD simulation. The CFD prediction was validated using experimental data collected for a mechanically ventilated DSF (1.6 m wide and 2.5 m high and 0.15 m wide cavity) equipped with venetian blinds. The present study indicates that the presence of venetian blinds influences the surface heat transfer coefficients (SHTCs), the temperature and the air distribution in the DSF system. Specifically, for the cases considered, the position of the blinds is more important than the slat angles.

Full text
Abstract:
Most of the experimental mistuning studies are performed using a blisk with random mistuning only. Intentional mistuning is often investigated analytically with respect to aeroelasticity, as it is well known that intentional mistuning reduces the flutter risk due to less interaction between the blades. In this paper, an intentionally mistuned test blisk is investigated both analytically and experimentally with respect to free and forced vibrations. First, free vibrations are studied and aliasing effects for the intentionally mistuned blisk are analyzed in comparison with a tuned blisk. A comparison between the experimentally determined dominant nodal diameters and the computed ones shows good agreement. Then, the blisk is experimentally excited by a travelling wave for various engine orders. Similar investigations are performed with a FEM model of the blisk and a reduced-order code. The amplification factor for some modes and several blisks is compared. The influence of the disc onto the blade mode shapes is studied for the tuned and mistuned case without and with aerodynamic coupling effects. Cyclic spacing of vanes is a concept to reduce the vibration level of downstream rotor blades by distributing the excitation onto more engine orders while reducing the overall excitation level. In this paper it is shown for blisks with and without intentional mistuning that care should be taken in applying this concept in the vicinity of veering regions, because the amplification factor in a veering region may become much higher than compared to other nodal diameters.

Abstract:
Application of integrated centralized control systems in buildings has been shown to be a very promising option to reduce energy consumption. The focus of this paper is on automated day-lighting systems which can modulate window blinds and electrical interior lights for maintaining the proper illumination levels and saving significant electrical energy in buildings. The algorithm proposed involves developing a preliminary baseline strategy for near-optimal blind slat angle settings for venetian blinds. We describe the predictive algorithm and validate the algorithm through experimental studies in both a virtual test cell as well as in an actual test room which have three separate sets of venetian blinds. The baseline strategy involves using a detailed lighting simulation program to predict illumination levels during selected days of the year and specific times of the day. The simulations are done by modifying the angels of blinds individually by pre-selected increments. It is then shown that this baseline data when properly extrapolated is adequate to predict near-optimal blind angles for most of the hours during the rest of the year. The study presented in this paper lays the foundation towards the development of an innovative integrated lighting control algorithm for high performance buildings using distributed sensors which will be described in a subsequent paper.

Full text
Abstract:
One of the few acoustic travelling wave systems (TWS) in the world has been developed by Defence Science and Technology Group Australia (DST). This system uses acoustic excitation of blisks by means of a high-powered speaker cluster. The response to this acoustic excitation is measured by a laser doppler vibrometer which shows the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the blisk. To date, this system has been verified and validated on a simple, twelve-bladed research blisk with a maximum error of 3.78% from FEM modal and harmonic analysis. Furthermore, the system has been refined and tested on a current in-service blisk with an accuracy of approximately 1%. This study outlines how the TWS has been used to investigate the effects of mistuning on blisks. Promising results have been achieved with the system able to accurately identify changes in resonant behaviour due to mistuning with correlation to finite element modelling predictions. The limitations are also outlined, along with suggested areas of research and improvement. This may ultimately result in the ability to verify manufacturer blending limits and assess the effect of foreign object damage and repairs on the dynamic response characteristics of a blisk without a complex and labour intensive mechanical spin rig investigation.

Abstract:
Abstract Sector-to-sector geometry or material property variations in as-manufactured bladed disks, or blisks, can result in significantly greater vibration responses during operation compared to nominally cyclic symmetric designs. The dynamics of blisks are sensitive to these unavoidable deviations, known as mistuning, making the identification of mistuning in as-manufactured blisks necessary for accurately predicting their vibration. As in previous mistuning modeling and identification approaches, the mistuning of interest is small and is parameterized by using deviations in cantilever blade-alone frequencies. Such mistuning parameterization is popular because it can be applied through blade-to-blade stiffness deviations in computational reduced-order models used to predict blisk dynamics. Previous approaches to identify such mistuning parameters often require the identification of modal information or blade-isolation techniques such blade detuning using masses or adding damping pads. However, modal information can be difficult to obtain accurately even in optimal bench conditions. Additionally, in practice it can be difficult to isolate individual blades by restricting blade motion around the blisk or detuning individual blades through added masses due to geometric constraints. In this paper, we present a method for mistuning identification using a data-driven approach based on a neural network. The network is first trained using surrogate computational data. Thus, the data-driven portion of the approach is executed using surrogate computational methods. With the trained network, mistuning in all sectors of blisks with the same nominal geometry can be identified by using a small number of forced responses and the forcing phase information from traveling-wave excitation. In this approach, no system or sector-level modal response information, restrictive blade isolation, or mass detuning are required. We additionally present a method for forcing frequency selection and response conditioning to improve identification accuracy. Validation of this approach is presented using a finite element blisk model containing stiffness mistuning within the blades to create computationally generated surrogate data. It is shown that mistuning can be predicted accurately using forced responses containing a significant amount of absolute and relative measurement noise, mimicking responses collected from experimental measurements. In addition, it is shown that mistuning can be predicted independently and accurately using different engine orders of excitation in regions of high modal density.
