Modeling Time Resolved Light Propagation Inside a Realistic Human Head Model

Background: Near infrared spectroscopy imaging is one of the new techniques used for investigating structural and functionality of different body tissues. This is done by injecting light into the medium and measuring the photon intensity at the surface of the tissue.Method: In this paper the different medical applications, various imaging and simulation techniques of NIRS imaging is described. ...

Tem po ral b - Value Vari a tions through out a Seis mic Fault ing Pro cess : The 2008 Taoyuan Earth quake in Taiwan

Tem po ral b-value vari a tions have been com pletely ob tained for the seis mic fault ing pro cess of the 4 March 2008 Taoyuan earth quake (ML = 5.2), south ern Tai wan. In ad di tion to trig ger ing sev eral hun dred after shocks, the mainshock was pre ceded by two groups of foreshocks (64 events) that clus tered along the nar row ma jor fault zone. A high b-value of ~1.25, es ti mated from t...

Acclimatization Potential of Dracaena Sanderiana ‘Victory’ to Contrasting Light Environments

The present study was conducted to ascertain the ability of Dracaena sanderiana ‘Victory’, a foliage plant species of commercial importance in both domestic and international markets, to thrive under contrasting light environments. The experiment was carried out inside a semi-open greenhouse in Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. Same sized and same aged, ready-to-ship export quality plugs of Dracaena sande...
