Leaflet movements in the legume Samanea saman are dependent upon massive redistribution of potassium (K), chloride (Cl), and other solutes between opposing (extensor and flexor) halves of the motor organ (pulvinus). Solutes are known to diffuse through the apoplast during redistribution. To test the possibility that solute diffusion might be restricted by apoplastic barriers, we analyzed elemen...

We prove some properties of strong minimizers for functionals depending on free discontinuities, free gradient discontinuities and second derivatives, which are related to image segmentation.

In this paper, wavelet transform based on dyadic scales and spatial location have been used for internal wave detection in SAR image. It performed by using multi resolution analysis of image for feature detection and image enhancement. Wavelet transform uses local analysis to analyze a shorter region in image in time and scale data allows precise information than time and frequency region analy...

the paper describes an investigation about the application of the new multiple-impedance discontinuities model for optimizing profile diffuser barriers. the new multiple-impedance discontinuities model is much faster than the numerical method, thus it is used in an optimization process. the a-weighted insertion loss was used for the traffic noise spectrum. the result of optimization, which is d...

We derive many necessary conditions for minimizers of a functional depending on free discontinuities, free gradient discontinuities and second derivatives, which is related to image segmentation.

This paper consists of two parts. The first part discusses commonsense knowledge about events as manifested in language. Three kinds of knowledge are identified: compositional, durational, and aspectual. Compositional knowledge concerns internal structuring of events into preparatory, initial, main (the body), final, and resulting stages. Durational knowledge concerns durational relations betwe...
