Resilience of electricity grids against transmission line overloads under wind power injection at different nodes.

Scientific reports

Schiel C, Lind PG, Maass P.
PMID: 28912454
Sci Rep. 2017 Sep 14;7(1):11562. doi: 10.1038/s41598-017-11465-w.

A steadily increasing fraction of renewable energy sources for electricity production requires a better understanding of how stochastic power generation affects the stability of electricity grids. Here, we assess the resilience of an IEEE test grid against single transmission...

A novel synthetic reversible inhibitor of sialidase efficiently blocks secondary but not primary influenza virus infection of MDCK cells in culture.

Archives of virology

Barrêre B, Driguez PA, Maudrin J, Doutheau A, Aymard M, Quash G.
PMID: 28879398
Arch Virol. 1997 Jul;142(7):1365-1380. doi: 10.1007/s007050050166.

The sodium salts of 2-difluoromethyl-phenyl-α-ketoside of N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (compound 1) and of 4-difluoromethyl-2-methoxy-phenyl-α-ketoside of N-acetylneuraminic acid (compound 2) were designed as potential mechanism-based inhibitors of sialidase. In vitro both of these compounds competitively inhibited the sialidases of Clostridium perfringens...

Monodisperse hard rods in external potentials.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Bakhti B, Karbach M, Maass P, Müller G.
PMID: 26565173
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2015 Oct;92(4):042112. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.92.042112. Epub 2015 Oct 06.

We consider linear arrays of cells of volume V(c) populated by monodisperse rods of size σV(c),σ=1,2,..., subject to hardcore exclusion interaction. Each rod experiences a position-dependent external potential. In one application we also examine effects of contact forces between...

Comparing verbal autopsy cause of death findings as determined by physician coding and probabilistic modelling: a public health analysis of 54 000 deaths in Africa and Asia.

Journal of global health

Byass P, Herbst K, Fottrell E, Ali MM, Odhiambo F, Amek N, Hamel MJ, Laserson KF, Kahn K, Kabudula C, Mee P, Bird J, Jakob R, Sankoh O, Tollman SM.
PMID: 25734004
J Glob Health. 2015 Jun;5(1):010402. doi: 10.7189/jogh.05.010402.

BACKGROUND: Coverage of civil registration and vital statistics varies globally, with most deaths in Africa and Asia remaining either unregistered or registered without cause of death. One important constraint has been a lack of fit-for-purpose tools for registering deaths...

Diagnosis and treatment of unexplained infertility.

Reviews in obstetrics & gynecology

Quaas A, Dokras A.
PMID: 18769664
Rev Obstet Gynecol. 2008;1(2):69-76.

Over the past decade, significant advances have occurred in the diagnosis and treatment of reproductive disorders. In this review, we discuss the routine testing performed to diagnose unexplained infertility. We also discuss additional testing, such as assessment of ovarian...

Temperature dependence on free volume in cured natural rubber and styrene-butadiene rubber blends.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Salgueiro W, Somoza A, Silva L, Consolati G, Quasso F, Mansilla MA, Marzocca AJ.
PMID: 21728565
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2011 May;83(5):051805. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.83.051805. Epub 2011 May 27.

A systematic study on the evolution of free volume as a function of the temperature in vulcanized at 433 K natural rubber (NR) and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) in 25-75, 50-50, 75-25 NR-SBR (percent content of pure NR and...

Work distributions for Ising chains in a time-dependent magnetic field.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Einax M, Maass P.
PMID: 19792061
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2009 Aug;80(2):020101. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.80.020101. Epub 2009 Aug 17.

Master equations can be conveniently used to investigate many particle systems driven out of equilibrium by time-dependent external fields. This topic is of vital interest in connection with fluctuation theorems and the associated microscopic work and heat distributions. We...

Contour reconstruction in 3-D X-ray CT.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging

Louis AK, Maass P.
PMID: 18218472
IEEE Trans Med Imaging. 1993;12(4):764-9. doi: 10.1109/42.251129.

The authors derives an algorithm for reconstructing contours of an object from 3D cone beam X-ray data. By reducing the amount of the searched-for information, contours, or density jumps instead of the densities themselves, the authors are able to...

Health inequalities among older men and women in Africa and Asia: evidence from eight Health and Demographic Surveillance System sites in the INDEPTH WHO-SAGE Study.

Global health action

Ng N, Kowal P, Kahn K, Naidoo N, Abdullah S, Bawah A, Binka F, Chuc NT, Debpuur C, Egondi T, Xavier Gómez-Olivé F, Hakimi M, Hirve S, Hodgson A, Juvekar S, Kyobutungi C, Van Minh H, Mwanyangala MA, Nathan R, Razzaque A, Sankoh O, Kim Streatfield P, Thorogood M, Wall S, Wilopo S, Byass P, Tollman SM, Chatterji S.
PMID: 20967141
Glob Health Action. 2010 Sep 27;3. doi: 10.3402/gha.v3i0.5420.

BACKGROUND: Declining rates of fertility and mortality are driving demographic transition in all regions of the world, leading to global population ageing and consequently changing patterns of global morbidity and mortality. Understanding sex-related health differences, recognising groups at risk...

Health and quality of life among older rural people in Purworejo District, Indonesia.

Global health action

Glob Health Action. 2010 Sep 27;3. doi: 10.3402/gha.v3i0.2125.

INTRODUCTION: Increasing life expectancy and longevity for people in many highly populated low- and middle-income countries has led to an increase in the number of older people. The population aged 60 years and over in Indonesia is projected to...

Internal friction and vulnerability of mixed alkali glasses.

Physical review letters

Peibst R, Schott S, Maass P.
PMID: 16197020
Phys Rev Lett. 2005 Sep 09;95(11):115901. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.95.115901. Epub 2005 Sep 07.

Based on a hopping model we show how the mixed alkali effect in glasses can be understood if only a small fraction c(V) of the available sites for the mobile ions is vacant. In particular, we reproduce the peculiar...
