Problems and prospects for the development of the compensation mechanism for oil pollution damage in China
… the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage 1971 (hereinafter referred to as ‘Fund Convention 1971’). Although the international community, exemplified by the International Maritime Organization (hereinafter referred to as ‘IMO’), has amended these two …

Magnetic Resonance Studies of a Sodium-Ion Battery Cathode: Experiment and Theory
… to the observed hysteresis. Finally, the charge compensation mechanism is presented. Previous reports have attributed the large reversible capacity of Na₀.₆₇[Mg₀.₂₈Mn₀.₇₂]O₂ to redox reactions involving oxide anions, O²⁻, but the mechanism remains unclear. Through a combination of spectroscopic …

A trajectory illusion and its relations to induced motion and smooth pursuit eye movements
… suggests that the brain may have an eye movement compensation mechanism. Other findings, however, question the existence of this mechanism in that the previously reported illusory shift in the focus of expansion (FOE) may be due to induced motion. Yet, this alternative hypothesis may need to be …

Dispute resolution under Section 54 of the MPRDA: An Imbalance of Conflicting Interests of the Landowner and the Right Holder
… rights, impacting landowners' rights. While compensation is available for losses, delays in resolving disputes may stall prospecting operations. The dissertation argues that the current framework does not balance the conflicting interests of the landowner and the right holder adequately. It …

Control Strategies for Machining with Industrial Robots
… and control of a piezo-actuated high-dynamic compensation mechanism for usage together with an industrial robot during a machining operation, such as milling in aluminium, is considered. Position control results from experiments are provided, as well as an experimental verification of the …

Adaptation and Learning for Manipulators and Machining
… approach is considered, where an external compensation mechanism is used in combination with the robot, for compensation of high-frequency Cartesian errors. Two different milling scenarios are evaluated, where a significant increase in accuracy was obtained. The accuracy specification of 50 …

The Effects of Chronic Sleep Deprivation on Sustained Attention: A Study of Brain Dynamic Functional Connectivity
… Thus, it is important to understand the neural mechanisms behind how chronic sleep deprivation impairs sustained attention. In recent years, more attention has been paid to the study of the integration between anatomically distributed and functionally connected brain regions. Functional …

On-line estimation approaches to fault-tolerant control of uncertain systems
… their estimates are used in an adaptive control compensation mechanism. The approach taken involves the active FTC, as the faults can be considered as uncertainties affecting the control system. The engineering (application domain) challenges that are addressed are:(1) On-line model-based fault …

Analysis and control of marine cable systems
… By applying modern control theory, a novel heave compensation mechanism is developed for marine systems of cables and subsea units. This mechanism involves an actively controlled winch system. A framework of optimal stochastic control is outlined for integrating all the elements of surface …

Quantitative analysis of the EGFRvIII mutant receptor signaling networks in Glioblastoma
… To gain a molecular understanding of the mechanisms by which EGFRvIII acts, we have employed a mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomic approach to quantitatively map cellular signaling events activated by this receptor. Using this approach, we have determined the major downstream pathways …

Optimum magnification and perspective for non-single-lens-reflex camera systems
… are most easily explained using the theory of a compensation mechanism of picture perception. Suggestions for future research include the study of range effects, different methods of assessment, and attempts at understanding the emotional impact of photographs and how it relates to judgements of …

Establishing Faithful Simulation of Polar Surfaces in Contact with the Aqueous Phase
… grounds. As such, they require a charge-compensation mechanism if they are to exist at all. In vacuo, this usually presents as a self-ionisation (electronic reconstruction), or a non-stoichiometric reconstruction of the surface region. When a fluid is present, charge can also be provided …

Entwicklung eines Anreizsystems für die Marktintegration und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von ökologisch nachhaltigen Energien im österreichischen Strommarkt
… a technology-specific, hourly-based and dynamic compensation tariff, which is calculated from the day-ahead prices, the electricity production costs and an operator-specific compensation indicator. In the second part of the mixed-methods research approach, the quantitative investigation, the …

Development of poly-Si/SiOx passivating contacts for advanced Si photovoltaics
… can be prevented by a proposed trap-assisted compensation mechanism. Next, we provide a process by which shunting across this region can be mitigated in complete cells through a self-aligned etching process. Lastly, we demonstrate the use of poly-Si/SiOx passivating contacts in a novel …

Investigation into factors affecting perceptual stability of the world during smooth pursuit eye movements
… world is perceived as stable. The eye movement compensation is traditionally assumed to consist of a combination of a retinal motion signal and an extra-retinal estimate of eye velocity (Von Holst & Mittelstaedt, 1950; Sperry, 1950). This view has been expanded upon by a number of researchers in …

Spectroscopic studies on hydrogenases
… can be used as a tool to clarify molecular mechanism related to the catalytic cycle and reactions with other small molecules (e.g. CO and O 2 ). Such insights could provide a blueprint for the synthesis of molecular catalysts for future applications. In the first part of this thesis, …

Multiple equilibria and low-frequency variability of wind-driven ocean models
… inertial runaway solution. The internal compensation mechanism which acts through explicitly simulated eddies is itself dependent explicit dissipation parameter. Using the reduced-gravity quasigeostrophic model an investigation of the link between the steady state solutions and the …

Understanding and Optimising Carbon Disorder for High-Performance Supercapacitors
… charge storage efficiency rather than the charge compensation mechanism. More disordered carbons have higher capacitance due to the more efficient storage of ions in their nanopores. Overall, this work establishes structural disorder as a key structural factor determining capacitance in nanoporous …

Cerebrale Blutflussregulation bei orthostatischer Hypotension im Rahmen des Morbus Parkinson
… from which you can draw conclusions on the compensation mechanisms. 18 of the 33 patients formally met the criteria for definition of a hypo-sympathetic orthostatic dysregulation. None of these patients suffered from a syncope. The blood pressure in the whole group was significantly lower …
