the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of evaporative media as gas turbine intake air cooling method on pressure drop of cartridge air filters. this study performed under the laboratory condition, using stainless steel test rig with specified dimensions to investigate the role of evaporative media in air cooling as well as its effects on new and used cartridge filters (as representati...

background drop-out (discontinuing treatment after the first visit) is one of the main causes of failure in obesity treatment. the aim of this study was to investigate the pattern of drop-out in overweight or obese outpatients in ahvaz, iran. material and methods a total of 575 overweight or obese individuals (female: 469, male: 106) aged 18 – 65 attending an outpatient dietician office for the...

In this note we reply to the criticisms by Sindoni, Paris and Ialongo concerning some aspects of the recent frame-dragging test performed by Iorio with the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft in the gravitational field of Mars.

We give manifolds whose Riemann curvature operators commute, i.e. which satisfy R(x1, x2)R(x3, x4) = R(x3, x4)R(x1, x2) for all tangent vectors xi in both the Riemannian and the higher signature settings. These manifolds have global geometric phenomena which are quite different for higher signature manifolds than they are for Riemannian manifolds. Our focus is on global properties; questions of...

HE segregation of continuous F, distributions has been demonstrated on the character cotyledon size in Part I “Monohybrid segregation” in WEBER (1959). The same methods were applied to the character primary leaf size for the parents and the F,, the single measurements length (insertion to tip) = x4 and area = x5 being used. Figure 1 shows the average sizes of hypocotyl, cotyledon and primary le...

In this paper, we describe the SALTO tool. It was originally developed for the annotation of semantic roles in the frame semantics paradigm, but can be used for graphical annotation of treebanks with general relational information in a simple drag-and-drop fashion. The tool additionally supports corpus management and quality control.

Dynamic Algebra is “doing algebraic calculations on a computer by direct manipulation”. We have implemented Dynamic Algebra in the Epsilonwriter application. For that purpose, a “Theory of Movements in Formulas” (TMF) has been elaborated. It describes, in a precise context, how we can move a sub-expression in a formula with preservation of equivalence. It has been implemented in Epsilonwriter f...
