Exploring the effect of tuck loops on fabric properties some knitted structures was aimed in this study. Samples were produced a Stoll V-bed knitting loom with 100% acrylic yarn. Five types knit (1x1 rib, half cardigan, double cardigan and cardigan) identical machine settings. Test results revealed that has highest thickness, thermal resistance coefficient friction. Double provides air permeabi...

Blepharochalasis is an uncommon disorder distinguished by recurrent episodes of eyelid oedema in young patients. A hypertrophic form, manifested as fat herniation, and an atrophic form, manifested as fat atrophy, have been described. Ptosis with excellent levator function, laxity of the lateral canthal structures with rounding of the lateral canthal angle, nasal fat pad atrophy, and redundant e...

This paper argues that time-series econometrics provides valuable tools and opens exciting research opportunities to marketing researchers. It allows marketing researchers to advance traditional modeling and estimation approaches by incorporating dynamic processes to answer new important research questions. The authors discuss the challenges facing time-series modelers in marketing, provide an ...

Based on theoretical arguments and empirical evidence we advocate the use of the lognormal distribution as a model for activity times. However, raw data on activity times are often subject to rounding and to the Parkinson effect. We address those factors in our statistical tests by using a generalized version of the Parkinson distribution with random censoring of earliness, ultimately validatin...

It is now more than half a century since the development of renowned and well-established strip theory Salvesen–Tuck–Faltinsen (STF), Salvesen et al. (1970). One existing, widely used, methods for calculating wave drift force (zero-speed case), or added resistance (forward-speed within this theory, near-field formulation which was developed by himself in (1974), (1978). This method invokes weak...

Detailed descriptions of five species of the lichen genus Canoparmelia Elix & Hale. are presented. Until now, three species of the genus Canoparmelia, including C. apata (Krempelh.) Elix & Hale, C. owariensis (Asah.) Elix, and C. texana (Tuck.) Elix & Hale have been reported in South Korea. Canoparmelia carneopruinata (Zahlbr.) Elix & Hale, C. crozalsiana (de Lesd.) Elix & Hale, and C. ecaperat...

When there is parameter uncertainty in the constraints of a convex optimization problem, it is natural to formulate the problem as a joint chance constrained program (JCCP) which requires that all constraints be satisfied simultaneously with a given large probability. In this paper, we propose to solve the JCCP by a sequence of convex approximations. We show that the solutions of the sequence o...
