Boiler efficiency has a direct impact on energy consumptions, which results in lower cost of operations and services. Usually high efficiency boilers are regarded as boilers with an efficiency of greater than 90%. However, it is likely that normal boilers are running at significantly lower efficiencies than this. This paper presents a process of developing a highly efficient energy consumption boiler. We adopt direct heat method while normal boilers are designed as indirect heat method. The submerged combustion method is considered to design for very high efficient boiler.

We present both a theoretical analysis and experimental data to show that electrophosphorescent top-emitting organic light emitting-devices (TOLEDs) with a reflective anode and a transparent cathode can be more efficient than the equivalent state-of-the-art bottom-emitting electrophosphorescent OLEDs (PHOLEDs$^{TM}$). The lifetime of devices with transparent cathodes are shown to approach that of the corresponding bottom-emitting devices.

This letter introduces an efficient transmission of traffic information through a terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting system, which is a multimedia and mobility empowered option of the European digital audio broadcasting system. By adapting Korean characteristic traffic information into the transport protocol expert group messages in the traffic information delivery, a highly efficient traffic information system was implemented and tested in Korea.

This paper proposes an efficient collision detection method in the dynamic spatial subdivisions for the MMORPG engine which requires realtime interactions. An octree is a suitable structure for static scenes or terrain processing. An octree spatial subdivision enhances rendering speed of scenes. Current spatial subdivisions tend to be highly optimized for efficient traversal, but are difficult to update quickly for a changing geometry. When an object moves to the outside extent for the spatial subdivisions, the acceleration structure would normally have to be rebuilt. The OSP based on a tree is used to divide dynamically wide outside which is the subject of 3D MMORPG. TBV does not reconstruct all tree nodes of OSP and has reduced rebuilding times by TBV information of a target node. A collision detection is restricted to those objects contained in the visibility range of sight by using the information established in TBV. We applied the HBV and ray tracing for an efficient collision detection.

An efficient three-dimensional (3D) inversion of magnetotelluric (MT) data can be carried out by using approximate sensitivities or avoiding the calculation of a full sensitivity matrix. In this paper, we propose approximate sensitivities for efficient 3D MT inversion based on the Gauss-Newton method and test and compare four kinds of sensitivities. Applying the four sensitivities to both synthetic and field data shows that the effects of sensitivities are highly dependent on data and thus applying various combinations of sensitivities is recommended for efficient inversion and good images.

This paper provides a highly efficient grinding for ferrous materials using ELID-grinding method. The grinding efficiency using ELID gring method with CIFB-cBN wheel and CB-cBN wheel is compared with general grinding method with V-cBN wheel. This paper measured grinding ratio for plunge grinding and grinding resistance for traverse grinding in order to investigate grinding ability. The results show that ELID grinding methods is useful for the high efficient grinding of ferrous materials.

Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) belongs to the pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family including glutathione reductase and thioredoxin reductase. It catalyzes the reoxidation of dihydrolipoyl moiety of the acyltransferase components of three $\alpha$-keto acid dehydrogenase complexes and of the hydrogen-carrier protein of the glycine cleavage system. Isoleucine-51 of human E3, located near the active disulfide center Cys residues, is highly conserved in most E3s from several sources. To examine the importance of this highly conserved Ile-51 in human E3 function, it was substituted with Ala using site-directed mutagenesis. The mutant was expressed in Escherichia coli and highly purified using an affinity column. Its E3 activity was decreased about 100-fold, indicating that the conservation of the Ile-51 residue in human E3 was very important to the efficient catalytic function of the enzyme. Its altered spectroscopic properties implied that conformational changes could occur in the mutant.

Enhancement of antigen-specific IgE is a hallmark of allergic hyperresponsiveness, therefore it is necessary to adopt or develop a highly sensitive and specific assay for determination of allergen-specific IgE levels in vivo. In this presentation, we introduce an ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) system developed to measure the levels of chicken egg ovalbumin (OVA)-specific IgE in serum. The ELISA method uses a commercially available purified rat anti-mouse IgE as a capture Ab and biotinylated OVA as a detection reagent. Avidin-peroxidase with its substrate is used for color development resulting in optical density measurement at 405 nm. The ELISA system produces a highly sensitive dose-response relation-ship between optical density levels and the dilution titer of the OVA-IgE standard serum but no cross-reaction with unrelated IgE or IgG. It is believed that the system is an Efficient tool to delineate an adjuvant effect of environmental pollutants on development of asthmatic and atopic responses.

Efficient plant regenerationsystem from cell suspension cultures was established in D. acicularis (2n = 90) by monitoring ploidy level and visual selection of the cultures. The highly regenerable cell lines selected maintained original ploidy level and consisted of compact cell clumps with yellowish color and relatively moderate growth, suggesting that it is possible to select visually the highly regenerable cell lines with the original ploidy level. All the regenerated plantlets from the highly regenerable cell cultures exhibited normal phenotypes and no variations in ploidy level were observed by flow cytometry (FCM) analysis.

Recently, a new output-only modal identification method based on time-frequency independent component analysis (ICA) has been developed by the authors and shown to be useful for even highly-damped structures. In many cases, it is of interest to identify the complex modes of structures with non-proportional damping. This study extends the time-frequency ICA based method to a complex ICA formulation for output-only modal identification of non-proportionally-damped structures. The connection is established between complex ICA model and the complex-valued modal expansion with sparse time-frequency representation, thereby blindly separating the measured structural responses into the complex mode matrix and complex-valued modal responses. Numerical simulation on a non-proportionally-damped system, laboratory experiment on a highly-damped three-story frame, and a real-world highly-damped base-isolated structure identification example demonstrate the capability of the time-frequency complex ICA method for identification of structures with complex modes in a straightforward and efficient manner.
