Model-based Hazard and Impact Analysis
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
Hazard and impact analysis is an indispensable task during the specification and development of safety-critical technical systems, and particularly of their software-intensive control parts. There is a lack of methods supporting an effective (reusable, automated) and integrated (cross-disciplinary) way to carry out such analyses. This report was motivated by an industrial project whose goal was to survey and propose methods and models for documentation and analysis of a system and its

... t to support hazard and impact analysis as an important task of safety engineering and system development. We present and investigate three perspectives of how to properly encode safety-relevant domain knowledge for better reuse and automation, identify and assess all relevant hazards, as well as pre-process this information and make it easily accessible for reuse in other safety and systems engineering activities and, moreover, in similar engineering projects.

Model-based fault localization in bottling plants
2015
Advanced Engineering Informatics
Keywords: Model-based fault localization Automatic fault diagnosis Consistency-based diagnosis Bottling plant Packaging line a b s t r a c t The bottling of beverages is carried out in complex plants that consist of several machines and material flows. To realize an efficient bottling process and high quality products, operators try to avoid plant downtimes. With actual non-productive times of between 10% and 60%, the operators require diagnosis tools that allow them to locate plant components

... hat cause downtime by exploiting automatically acquired machine data. This paper presents a model-based solution for automatic fault diagnosis in bottling plants. There are currently only a few plant-specific solutions (based on statistical calculations or artificial neural networks) for automatic bottling plant diagnosis. In order to develop a customizable solution, we followed the model-based diagnosis approach which allows the automatic generation of diagnosis solutions for individual plants. The existing stochastic and discrete-event models for bottling plants are not adequate for model-based diagnosis. Therefore, we developed new first-principle models for the relevant plant components, validated them numerically, and abstracted them to qualitative diagnosis models. Based on the diagnosis engine OCC'M Raz'r, application systems for two real plants and one virtual plant (based on discrete-event simulation) were generated and evaluated. Compared to the reasons for downtime identified by experts, we obtained up to 87.1% of compliant diagnosis results. The diagnosis solution was tested by practitioners and judged as a useful tool for plant optimization.
Arginine Cofactors on the Polymerase Ribozyme
2011
PLoS ONE
The RNA world hypothesis states that the early evolution of life went through a stage in which RNA served both as genome and as catalyst. The central catalyst in an RNA world organism would have been a ribozyme that catalyzed RNA polymerization to facilitate self-replication. An RNA polymerase ribozyme was developed previously in the lab but it is not efficient enough for self-replication. The factor that limits its polymerization efficiency is its weak sequence-independent binding of the

... /template substrate. Here we tested whether RNA polymerization could be improved by a cationic arginine cofactor, to improve the interaction with the substrate. In an RNA world, amino acid-nucleic acid conjugates could have facilitated the emergence of the translation apparatus and the transition to an RNP world. We chose the amino acid arginine for our study because this is the amino acid most adept to interact with RNA. An arginine cofactor was positioned at ten different sites on the ribozyme, using conjugates of arginine with short DNA or RNA oligonucleotides. However, polymerization efficiency was not increased in any of the ten positions. In five of the ten positions the arginine reduced or modulated polymerization efficiency, which gives insight into the substrate-binding site on the ribozyme. These results suggest that the existing polymerase ribozyme is not well suited to using an arginine cofactor.
Meeting Re-use Requirements of Real-Life Diagnosis Applications
[chapter]
1999
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This report addresses re-use issues in computer-based diagnosis. It is shown that in order to obtain re-usable components it is useful to categorize the knowledge and software for a diagnosis system along two dimensions, generality and genericity. Several new contributions to diagnosis technology are presented which illustrate different re-use categories and show the benefits of improved reusability. The contributions pertain to different tasks related to the diagnosis of real-life systems of

Model-based Fault Detection and Diagnosis of Air Handling Units: A Comparison of Methodologies
2014
Energy Procedia
This paper presents a comparison between two model based diagnostics methodologies that can be used to detect and diagnose various faults that occur in Air Handling Units. The process from model development to inference diagnostics is highlighted with emphasis on the requirements for implementing a successful model based diagnosis solution. Comparative results of both methodologies on an air handling unit are presented and thoroughly discussed using as a benchmark the rule-based approach known

TAK1 in brain endothelial cells mediates fever and lethargy
2011
Journal of Experimental Medicine
Systemic inflammation affects the brain, resulting in fever, anorexia, lethargy, and activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. How peripheral inflammatory signals reach the brain is still a matter of debate. One possibility is that, in response to inflammatory stimuli, brain endothelial cells in proximity to the thermoregulatory centers produce cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and release prostaglandin E2, causing fever and sickness behavior. We show that expression of the MAP kinase

... kinase TAK1 in brain endothelial cells is needed for interleukin 1 (IL-1)-induced COX-2 production. Exploiting the selective expression of the thyroxine transporter Slco1c1 in brain endothelial cells, we generated a mouse line allowing inducible deletion of Tak1 specifically in brain endothelium. Mice lacking the Tak1 gene in brain endothelial cells showed a blunted fever response and reduced lethargy upon intravenous injection of the endogenous pyrogen IL-1. In conclusion, we demonstrate that TAK1 in brain endothelial cells induces COX-2, most likely by activating p38 MAPK and c-Jun, and is necessary for fever and sickness behavior.
