When the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, Webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. This is not a problem for HCM2000 method. But optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

The occurrence of cycle slips is a major limiting factor for achievement of sub-decimeter accuracy in positioning with GPS (Global Positioning System). In the past, several authors introduced a method based on different combinations of GPS data together with Kalman filter to solve the problem of the cycle slips. In this paper the same philosophy is used but with discrete wavelet transforms. For...

objective: this study presents an efficient, cost-effective method to improve proliferation and colonization of spermatogonial stem cells (sscs) in vitro. methods: isolated sscs from neonate mice were cultured in dmem culture medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (fbs). in the first phase of the study, the temperature was controlled by low intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation (lipus) of the pla...

Sleep is a basic behavior in humans. There are some research reports on the cyclical patterns of different types of sleep and their relationship to breathing, heart rate, brain waves, and other physical function. More recently, scientific research has begun to show how music therapy interacts with relaxation and sleep cycle. This research is focusing on the following hypotheses: 1. Music could ...

waste is a by-product of our daily activities, which poses a serious threat to societies all over the world. in this study, life cycle assessment (lca) methodology was used to determine municipal solid waste (msw) management strategy for minna, niger state, nigeria. three scenarios were modelled as alternatives to the current waste management system in minna. the baseline scenario was the exist...

transpiration, as one of the components of hydrological cycle, has not been paid enough attention yet, while it is necessary for sound utilization of rangelands, mostly located in the arid and semiarid regions. the comparison of the different kinds of rangelands species in terms of transpiration rates provides range managers the required information to achieve optimal forage production for a gi...

objectives we investigated the menstrual bleeding pattern and its relationship with certain clinical findings in adult women with chd. patients and methods clinical data and menstrual bleeding pattern of adult women ≥15 years old who were referred to adult chd clinic between march and september 2014 were recorded. patients with syndromic congenital anomalies were excluded. results data of 304 w...
