objective(s): bonenavi, a computer-aided diagnostic system, is used in bone scintigraphy. this system provides the artificial neural network (ann) and bone scan index (bsi) values. ann is associated with the possibility of bone metastasis, while bsi is related to the amount of bone metastasis. the degree of uptake on bone scintigraphy can be affected by the type of bone metastasis. therefore, t...

Today, while transportation is constantly moving forward, costs are increasing. The aim to obtain light structures that suitable in terms of weight, sufficient strength, and save materials energy. Axles not only used transport vehicles, but also buses, automobiles forklifts. must be a reliable structure due their place use. external effects the axles generally exposed applied loads. In this stu...

General morphological analysis (GMA) is a method for structuring and investigating the total set of relationships contained in multi-dimensional, usually non-quantifiable, problem complexes. Pioneered by Fritz Zwicky at the California Institute of Technology in the 1930s and 40s, it relies on a constructed parameter space, linked by way of logical relationships, rather than on causal relationsh...

Computer-aided sperm analysis (CASA) technology was developed in the late 1980s for analyzing sperm movement characteristics or kinematics and has been highly successful in enabling this field of research. CASA has also been used with great success for measuring semen characteristics such as sperm concentration and proportions of progressive motility in many animal species, including wide appli...

We prove, using interval analysis methods, that the L, L and L spectral radii of the traction double layer potential operator associated with the Lamé system on an infinite sector in R are within 2.5 × 10, 10 and 10, respectively, from a certain conjectured value which depends explicitly on the aperture of the sector and the Lamé moduli of the system. We also indicate how to extend these result...
