The relative merits of the wavelet-Galerkin solution of hyperbolic partial diieren-tial equations, typical of geophysical problems, are quantitatively and qualitatively compared to traditional nite diierence and Fourier-pseudo-spectral methods. The wavelet-Galerkin solution presented here is found to be a viable alternative to the two conventional techniques.

Irrelevance-based partial MAPs are useful constructs for domain-independent explana­ tion using belief networks. We look at two definitions for such partial MAPs, and prove important properties that are useful in de­ signing algorithms for computing them effec­ tively. We make use of these properties in modifying our standard MAP best-first algo­ rithm, so as to handle irrelevance-based par­ ti...

Alkylating agents and compounds converted metabolically to alkylating agents form an important class of carcinogens and mutagens that includes a number of environmentally important /V-nitrosocompounds. A number of alkylating agents are also useful antitumor drugs. There are many factors determining the sensitivity to the toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic poten tial of these compounds (1-4).2 O...

Village Family Planning, also known as Kampung KB, was formed by the Indonesian National Planning Coordinating Board (BKKBN). This study focused on KB area in Bergas Semarang that grew from ‘primary’ to ‘developing.’ Since 2018, progress is marked data increase couples carrying out family planning. In September 2020, number of fertile age (PUS) who already have two children but not participated...

Gamma titanium aluminide has received significant attention in recent years as a candidate material for use in aerospace and industrial gas turbine engine applications. In particular, these materials offer significant weight reductions (densities are less than half that of nickel-based superalloys), high specific strength retention at elevated temperature and high specific stiffness which is pa...
