We present two tools, which could be useful in determining whether or not a non-Homogenous Linear Recurrence can reach a desired rational. First, we derive the determinant that is equal to the i term in a non-Homogenous Linear Recurrence. We use this to derive the infinite determinant that is zero, if and only if, the desired rational can be reached by some term in the recurrence. Second, we de...

As application of re-activation of backside on power device Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), laser annealing was employed to irradiate amorphous silicon substrate, and resistivities were measured using four point probe measurement. For annealing the amorphous silicon two lasers were used at wavelength of visible green (532 nm) together with Infrared (793 nm). While the green laser effi...

PURPOSE Tendency-oriented perimetry (TOP) is a new strategy designed to estimate the sensitivity of the visual field quickly, by using linear interpolation between test locations. This study determined the spatial resolution characteristics of TOP. METHODS A Monte-Carlo technique was used to simulate visual fields, and incorporated realistic amounts of subject response variability as well as ...

The hybrid technology which combines a thin layer of ferroelectric liquid crystal directly on top of a CMOS backplane has provided a hybrid technology for spatial light modulators which has already reached a mature stage of development. Devices of around 10 pixels are under construction. The use of devices in a number of systems has already been demonstrated.

performances of electronic and mechanical draft control systems on a mf399 tractor were the objectives of the study to be evaluated and compared under field conditions. hence, the effects of two draft control systems (mechanical and electronic) under four ground speed levels and three set values of draft levels on rear wheel slippage, fuel consumption, compressive force within the top link and ...
