The investigation of vertical channel deformations the main rivers Teteriv basin over last 40 years according to data 6 hydrological stations was carried out. prerequisite for this establishment trends in changes water discharge considered watercourses. A general decrease these indicators, especially average and maximum flow revealed. This is confirmed by previously conducted studies on level f...

The quality of channel sidewalls resulting from through-wafer deep reactive-ion etching is analysed using scanning electron microscopy, atomic-force microscopy and interferometry. Sidewall quality and profile are highly dependent on the width of the etched channel. Channels narrower than 100 lm show generally good sidewall smoothness, though with a bowed profile. This profile leads to ion-induc...

Totally asymmetric simple exclusion processes, consisting of two coupled parallel lattice chains with particles interacting with hard-core exclusion and moving along the channels and between them, are considered. In the limit of strong coupling between the channels, the particle currents, density profiles and a phase diagram are calculated exactly by mapping the system into an effective one-cha...

This paper presents a HTTP based multimedia content streaming architecture able to provide large scale WebTV services to end users connected over several access network technologies. The architecture features smooth Rate Adaptation, context Personalization information (Channel Suggestions), fast program channel switching, Network Portability (Vertical Handover) and Terminal Portability capabili...

Voltage-dependent calcium channels represent a major pathway of calcium entry into neurons, where they participate actively to cell excitability and to the molecular processes of synaptic transmission. For that reason, they have been the direct or indirect pharmacological targets of analgesics and this long before their implication in the physiology of nociception had been demonstrated. These l...

Boiling experiments were performed with FC-72 on a series of nine in-line simulated microelectronic chips in a flow channel to ascertain the effects of channel orientation on critical heat flux (CHF). The simulated chips, measuring 10 mm x 10 mm, were flush-mounted to one wall of a 20 mm x 5 mm flow channel. The channel was rotated in increments of 45 degrees through 360 degrees such that the c...

Free bandwidth in television channels which is available in the form of the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) is currently being utilized to broadcast programme information, HTML pages and closed captioning. This bandwidth can be used to broadcast data and also products like video clips, software, multimedia packages, etc. thereby satisfying several customers with a single transmission at very h...

Crosstalk minimization is one of the most important high performance aspects in interconnecting VLSI circuits. With advancement of fabrication technology, devices and interconnecting wires are placed in closer proximity and circuits operate at higher frequencies. This results in crosstalk between wire segments. Crosstalk minimization problem for the reserved two-layer Manhattan channel routing ...
