complicated potential structure formed at a constriction of positive column of a dc discharge with heated cathode in he at low discharge currents is investigated. according to the potential structure, electrons and ions are accelerated by the electric field and their energy distribution functions acquire multi humped shapes. additional maximums on distribution functions quickly disappear due to...

This paper proposes a random tree algorithm based on potential field oriented greedy strategy for the path planning of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Potential-field-RRT (PF-RRT) discards defect traditional artificial (APF) algorithms that are prone to fall into local errors, and introduces fields as an aid expansion process trees. It reasonably triggers principle strength descending gradient...

Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...

Introduction: Developmental changes in atrioventricular nodal conduction time and refractoriness have been shown in several studies. Prevalence of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is clearly age-dependent. The purpose of this study was to determine developmental changes of basic and frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of the atrioventricular node (AV-node)...

the objectives of this study was to estimation of greenhouse gases (ghg) emissions and global warming in rice production and identify measures to reducing fossil energy use and greenhouse gases emissions. three rice production systems included sri, improved and conventional were studied. all activities, field operation and data in production methods and differents inputs rates were monitored an...

Simultaneous intracellular recordings were obtained from stratum lacunosum-moleculare (L-M) interneurons and CA1 cells, and their local circuit synaptic interactions were examined. Synaptic interactions with pyramidal cells were evaluated in both intrasomatic and intradendritic pyramidal cell recordings. Stimulation of L-M interneurons evoked small-amplitude IPSPs in 21% of intrasomatic (9/42 c...

The responsive behavior of methanethiol and methylthiolate molecules on the Au(111) surface with an applied electrical potential is studied, and it is shown how the sulfur adsorption site, the S-H bond orientation and the interacting energy change with an external electric field strength. The electron charge density corresponding to an electric field minus that obtained in zero field, with zero...
