the increase of cell temperature with increased irradiance is probably the mostsignificant disadvantage of using photovoltaic modules equipped with booster reflectors. the aimof this study is to investigate the possibility of improving the performance of a photovoltaic waterpumping system by using a booster reflector and to keep the temperature of pv panels at a lowlevel by cooling pv panels wi...

Let $alpha$ be an endomorphism and $delta$ an $alpha$-derivationof a ring $R$.  In this paper we  study the relationship between an$R$-module $M_R$ and the  general polynomial module  $M[x]$ over theskew polynomial ring $R[x;alpha,delta]$. We introduce the notionsof skew-Armendariz modules and skew quasi-Armendariz modules whichare generalizations of $alpha$-Armendariz modules and extend thecla...

CONTEXT Creating a tool that assesses professional proficiency in gynecologic cytology is challenging. A valid proficiency test (PT) must reflect practice conditions, evaluate locator and interpretive skills, and discriminate between those practitioners who are competent and those who need more education. The College of American Pathologists Gynecologic Cytology Proficiency Testing Program (PAP...

The paper uses a new approach to investigate prime submodules and minimal prime submodules of certain modules such as Artinian and torsion modules. In particular, we introduce a concrete formula for the radical of submodules of Artinian modules.

let $r$ be a ring and $m$ a right $r$-module with $s=end_r(m)$. a module $m$ is called semi-projective if for any epimorphism $f:mrightarrow n$, where $n$ is a submodule of $m$, and for any homomorphism $g: mrightarrow n$, there exists $h:mrightarrow m$ such that $fh=g$. in this paper, we study sgq-projective and$pi$-semi-projective modules as two generalizations of semi-projective modules. a m...

Generalized language-of-thought arguments appropriate to interacting cognitive modules permit exploration of how disease states interact with medical treatment. The interpenetrating feedback between treatment and response creates a kind of idiotypic hall of mirrors generating a synergistic pattern of efficacy, treatment failure, adverse reactions, and patient noncompliance which, from a Rate Di...

An R-module M is called strongly noncosingular if it has no nonzero Rad-small (cosingular) homomorphic image in the sense of Harada. It is proven that (1) an R-module M is strongly noncosingular if and only if M is coatomic and noncosingular; (2) a right perfect ring R is Artinian hereditary serial if and only if the class of injective modules coincides with the class of (strongly) noncosingula...
