Earlier studies have shown that multiple capture can achieve high SNR, but cannot satisfy the high dynamic range (HDR) and high speed requirements of the Vertically-Integrated-Sensor-Array (VISA) project. Synchronous selfreset, on the other hand, can achieve these requirements, but suffers from poor SNR. Extended counting can achieve high dynamic range at high frame rate and with good SNR, but ...

Single-photon counting hybrid pixel detectors have shown to be a valid alternative to other types of X-ray imaging devices due to their high sensitivity, low noise, linear behavior and wide dynamic range. One important advantage of these devices is the fact that detector and readout electronics are manufactured separately. This allows the use of industrial state-of-the-art CMOS processes to mak...

Accuracy and random selection of seeds when testing the 1000 weight in laboratory is great importance order to ensure representativeness sample precise information for further packaging process. The aim this research was check whether seed counter selects by shape size there a trend during operation at maximum reduced speed. Ten species different sizes were used. replicates 100 counted counter,...

The study's goal was to identify the beginning of 1st grade quantitative competencies that predict mathematics achievement start point and growth through 5th grade. Measures of number, counting, and arithmetic competencies were administered in early 1st grade and used to predict mathematics achievement through 5th (n = 177), while controlling for intelligence, working memory, and processing spe...

Dual frequency identification sonar (DIDSON) is an imaging sonar that has been used for numerous fisheries investigations in a diverse range of freshwater and marine environments. The main purpose of DIDSON is fish counting, fish sizing, and fish behavioral studies. DIDSON records video-quality data, so processing power for handling the vast amount of data with high speed is a priority. Therefo...

In this issue, a study by Kano et al report on the use of gait speed as a marker of frailty in an older population undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and demonstrated its use to predict outcomes. Specifically, they used a multicenter Japanese registry to analyze the association between gait speed and mortality in 1256 older adults who underwent TAVR. The end points evaluat...

In order to investigate the effect of a baseline control system (BCS) on dynamic and fatigue characteristics modern wind turbines, simulation results 5-MW turbine subjected loading without with considering BCS (No. 1 No. 2, respectively) were compared. The displacement moment tower blades compared, rainflow counting algorithm was used analyze load expressed in damage equivalent (DEL). indicate ...

The Organic Bound Tritium (OBT) amount in the body may induce changes in the evaluation of the internal exposure to tritium, due to its different retention time relative to HTO. OBT measurements for urine are not performed routinely, mainly because of the lengthy work needed in preparation of the samples, when using the standard oxygen combustion method. A simpler and more rapid method based on...
