Intrabody communication (IBC) has drawn extensive attention in the field of ubiquitous healthcare, entertainment, and more. Until now, most studies on the modeling and characterization of capacitive coupling IBC have been conducted in open space, while influences when using metallic-enclosed environments such as a car, airplane, or elevator have not yet been considered. In this paper, we aimed to systematically investigate the grounding effect of an enclosed metal wall of a vehicle on the transmission path loss, utilizing the finite element method (FEM) to model capacitive coupling IBC in an in-vehicle scenario. The results of a simulation and experimental validation indicated that the system gain in an in-vehicle scenario increased up to 7 dB compared to in open space. The modeling and characterization achieved in this paper of capacitive coupling IBC could facilitate an intrabody sensor design and an evaluation with great flexibility to meet the performance needs of an in-vehicle use scenario.

AbstractUsing bioinformatics and experimental validation, we obtained a cDNA (named srsf) which was exclusively expressed in the mouse testes. RT-PCR analysis showed that srsf mRNA was not expressed in the gonad during the sex determination period or during embryogenesis. In developing mouse tests, srsf expression was first detected on post-natal day 10, reached its highest level on day 23, and then reduced to and remained at a moderate level throughout adulthood. In situ hybridization analysis demonstrated that srsf mRNA was expressed in pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids in the testes. The predicted protein contains one RNA-binding domain (RBD) and a serine-arginine rich domain (RS), which are characterized by some splicing factors of SR family members. These findings indicate that srsf may play a role during spermatogenesis.

Turbocharger designs typically incorporate fixed-geometry hydrodynamic bearings. These bearings are known to be prone to exhibit sub-synchronous vibration response. This self-induced sub-synchronous vibration component is due to stiffness cross-coupling in the bearings and is independent of the level of rotor unbalance. This type of vibration has been shown to have the potential to destabilize the rotor-bearing system and inducing rapid growth in the vibration amplitude that could lead to mechanical failure. The present work considers the bearing redesign for a locomotive turbocharger with the objective of eliminating sub-synchronous vibration components by increasing the threshold onset speed with no increase in cost or bearing size. The paper describes the characterization of the original design, the optimization of the new bearing design and the experimental validation. As shown in the results, the optimized bearing configuration eliminated the sub-synchronous vibration component within the turbocharger speed range.
