Even though it has been established that smaller diameter pipelines are safer to operate, gas pipeline industry needs cost-effective ways to transmit larger volumes of gas over long distances at higher pressures with at least 50 years of service life. Recognizing that current gas pipelines are made primarily of steel which is subjected to corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement, the proposed project focuses on developing glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite pipes including a range of joining systems. A few of the many advantages of GFRP composite pipes are their non-corrosiveness, magnetic transparency, and high strength-to-weight ratio. As a part of this project, GFRP pipes and joints were designed, manufactured, and evaluated under static loads. Emphasis was placed in the evaluation of stress-rupture (burst pressure) of GFRP composite pipes that could withstand internal pressures as high as 5000 psi. The report also includes design and testing of high pressure composite joints for these pipes. In addition, the report discusses the use of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for successfully detecting the FRP pipes under buried condition. The report also includes detection of gas leakage from buried pipes using mass spectroscopy. iv Table of Contents CAAP Final Report

  • The Selectivity of the Na /K
    RESEARCH ARTICLE The selectivity of the Na+/K+-pump is controlled by binding site protonation and self-correcting occlusion Huan Rui1, Pablo Artigas2, BenoıˆtRoux1* 1Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The University of Chicago, Chicago, United States; 2Department of Cell Physiology and Molecular Biophysics, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, Lubbock, United States Abstract The Na+/K+-pump maintains the physiological K+ and Na+ electrochemical gradients across the cell membrane. It operates via an ’alternating-access’ mechanism, making iterative transitions between inward-facing (E1) and outward-facing (E2) conformations. Although the general features of the transport cycle are known, the detailed physicochemical factors governing the binding site selectivity remain mysterious. Free energy molecular dynamics simulations show that the ion binding sites switch their binding specificity in E1 and E2. This is accompanied by small structural arrangements and changes in protonation states of the coordinating residues. Additional computations on structural models of the intermediate states along the conformational transition pathway reveal that the free energy barrier toward the occlusion step is considerably increased when the wrong type of ion is loaded into the binding pocket, prohibiting the pump cycle from proceeding forward. This self-correcting mechanism strengthens the overall transport selectivity and protects the stoichiometry of the pump cycle. DOI: 10.7554/eLife.16616.001 Introduction *For correspondence: roux@ The Na+/K+-pump is a primary active membrane transporter present in nearly all animal cells. It uchicago.edu belongs to the P-type ATPase family, which utilizes the energy released from ATP hydrolysis to Competing interests: The move ions against their concentration gradients across a membrane barrier.

  • Mcintire Department of Music Newsletter
    University of Virginia McIntire Department of Music Newsletter: 2015-16 Edition Letter from the Chair: A “Banner” Year of Music Synergies This year, for the first time in our nearly 100-year history, students and parents arriving for Family Weekend and Days on the Lawn saw "Music" proudly displayed above the steps of Old Cabell. The banners set the tone for a year in which we celebrated the incredible diversity and quality of our department. We created mash-up, synergistic programming blending various areas of our research. We promoted our scholars, composers, performers and technologists as superstars using a new website and publicity engine. We launched a brand new Performance Concentration for Majors. And we actively engaged in a dialog about the place of Music in the 21st Century University. We challenged ourselves to ask "What is Music?" through a Flash Seminar, and to think globally about the impact of our work. All of these efforts have contributed to a really fantastic year. I invite you to visit the new website and explore the vision. The website features a significant redesign with powerful new tools such as an Audio Lounge, a Music Life Blog, and a dynamic front page that evokes different roles of music in the University. The first slide (also the cover image of this newsletter) is accompanied by the caption, "Music: a place to gather”, and it shows hundreds of students gathered in front of Old Cabell Hall. We strive to make our Music Department a safe space for creative learning, free imagination, celebration of knowledge and good spirited gathering.

  • THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA Context and Commission
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Context and Commission in Large-Scale Texted Works of Libby Larsen A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of The Benjamin T. Rome School of Music Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Deborah B. Crall Washington, D.C. 2013 Context and Commission in Large-Scale Texted Works of Libby Larsen Deborah B. Crall, Ph.D. Director: Grayson Wagstaff, Ph.D. Libby Larsen (b. 1950) is recognized as one of the foremost composers of her generation, as well as one of the most performed. A prolific composer, she produces at least one large-scale piece a year. In an era when classically trained composers conventionally earn their living in an academic environment, Larsen makes her livelihood as a composer in the “classical” or concert field. In this way she exemplifies a shift in composer economics, as many composers have abandoned the academic life in favor of self-promotion. This dissertation examines musical patronage in the United States in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries by exploring the ways Larsen has developed commissions as an independent artist, incorporating the complex relationships that exist among composer and commissioner in the process of composing large works. Thus patronage, politics, audience, and composition are all intertwined in compelling ways. These relationships are shown by examining six specific works: three operas, Frankenstein, the Modern Prometheus , Eric Hermannson’s Soul , Barnum’s Bird , one choral symphony, Coming Forth Into Day , one cantata, Eleanor Roosevelt (1996), and one oratorio, The Triptych .
