In the strip packing problem, a given set of axis-aligned rectangles must be packed into a fixed-width strip, and the goal is to minimize the height of the strip. In this paper, we examine a variant in which each rectangle may be cut vertically into multiple slices and the slices may be packed into the strip as individual pieces. Our results are: (1) analysis of the approximation ratio of sever...

The MSA Agent is the software developed to design rectangular and U slotted micro strip antenna. It is applied for the various applications such as satellite communications, UHF applications. Within the multimedia frequency range the developed software is tested and analyzed for various results. The software is developed using genetic algorithm. This provides extra flexibility and new capabilit...

The irregular strip packing problem asks to place a set of polygons within a rectangular strip of fixed height without overlap, so as to minimize the strip width required. We consider an overlap minimization problem which minimizes the amount of overlap penalty for all pairs of polygons within a given bound of strip width. We propose a local search algorithm which translates a polygon in horizo...

An L-strip proximity coupled circular micro strip antenna is proposed. The structure is investigated using circuit theoretic approach and simulated using IE3D simulation software. The patch is designed on at hick substrate of thickness 11mm for a center frequency of 8.9GHz and provides ultra wide band operation. The parametric study is carried out for horizon tall length of L-strip deviation of...

An alpha-helix terminates when the virtual extension of its most hydrophobic, longitudinal strip containing Leu, Ile, Val, Phe, and Met lacks those residues. In each of 247 helices a template was fitted to maximize the mean hydrophobicity of positions forming a longitudinal strip-of-helix. The template was then extended into sequences beyond the ends of the helices. Leu, Ile, Val, Phe, and Met...

A simple and rapid immunochromatographic test strip incorporating a colloidal gold-labeled recombinant Nsp7 antigen probe was successfully developed for the detection of anti-porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibodies in swine. Recombinant Nsp7 protein of PRRSV labeled with colloidal gold was dispensed on a conjugate pad for use as the detector. Staphylococcal protei...

background early postoperative edema and ecchymosis are the most common factors to complicate initial patient perceptions about rhinoplasty. the current study was conducted to determine the effects of longer steri-strip tape on patient cheek in terms of ecchymosis control and reduction. methods through a randomized controlled clinical trial, 70 patients who underwent rhinoplasty were randomly e...

A physically interpretable model of an experimental strip guidance installation, operated at Hoogovens Research and Development in the Netherlands, is derived by means of system identification. This process consists of an offset pivot guide steering roll with five degrees of freedom, four cylindrical guide rolls, and one driving roll. In this experimental installation, an endless steel strip is...

We study pseudo-polynomial Strip Packing. Given a set of rectangular axis parallel items and a strip with bounded width and infinite height the objective is to find a packing of the items into the strip which minimizes the packing height. We speak of pseudo-polynomial Strip Packing if we consider algorithms with pseudo-polynomial running time with respect to the width of the strip. It is known ...

In this study we propose a novel monitor hydraulic automatic gauge control (HAGC) system based on fuzzy feedforward controller. This is used in the development of cold rolling mill automation system to improve the quality of cold strip. According to features/ properties of entry steel strip like its average yield stress, width of strip, and desired exit thickness, this controller realizes the c...
