Abstract:
Energy functions are found to be a key of protein structure prediction. In this work, we propose a novel 3-dimensional energy function based on hydrophobic-hydrophilic properties of amino acid where we consider at least three different possible interaction of amino acid in a 3-dimensional sphere categorized as hydrophilic versus hydrophilic, hydrophobic versus hydrophobic and hydrophobic versus hydrophilic. Each of these interactions are governed by a 3-dimensional parameter alpha used to model the interaction and 3-dimensional parameter beta used to model weight of contribution. We use Geneti

Abstract:
Density functional theory is an efficient and useful method of solving single-reference computational chemistry problems, however it struggles with multi-reference systems. Modifications have been developed in order to improve the capabilities of density functional theory. In this work, density functional theory has been successfully applied to solve multi-reference systems with large amounts of non-dynamical correlation by use of modifications. It has also been successfully applied for geometry optimizations for lanthanide trifluorides.

Background Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are common obstructive airway diseases with a substantial burden in terms of morbidity, mortality and costs. Smoking is the single most important risk factor for COPD, and is associated with incident asthma.

The definitions of these diseases have varied over time which makes it difficult to measure changes in prevalence. The preferred method is to estimate the prevale

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Biomedical Technology))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2006<br>Cells living under aerobic conditions constantly face the oxygen paradox i.e. oxygen is indispensable for supporting life; however, its metabolites such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) can modify cell function. Oxidative stress (OS) arises as a consequence of excessive ROS production and/or impaired antioxidant defence mechanisms. Environmental and physiological factors have been implicated in poor sperm function. Excessive ROS generation results in oxidative damage and consequently decreased

Abstract:
A crescente complexidade do controle dos processos industriais vem exigindo sistemas de controle cada vez mais precisos, confiáveis e versáteis. No sentido de atender a estas exigências, algoritmos diversos de controle e estimação, tais como: técnicas de controle adaptativas, preditivas, estimação paramétrica, filtros de Kalman, observação de estados, etc. têm sido desenvolvidas, simuladas e implementadas com relativa facilidade nos modernos sistemas digitais. Este trabalho propõe uma estratégia de controle em redes Fieldbus usando controle adaptativo por modelo de referência através de variáv

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the choices under risk in the framework of non-expected utility theories. One of the key contributions of this thesis is providing an approach that allows for a complete characterisation of Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT) preferences without prior knowledge of the reference point. The location of the reference point that separates gains from losses is derived endogenously, thus, without any additional assumptions on the decision maker’s risk behaviour. This is different to the convention used in the literature, according to which, the reference point is preselected. T
