the aim of this study was to compare big five personality traits between male and female athletes and non-athletes. 200 athlete and non-athlete students (100 men and 100 women) were selected by simple random sampling method as the sample of the study. the subjects completed neo – ffi. the data were analyzed by spss 16, two-way anova to determine the differences among the groups and tukey post h...

Flexibility in a queueing system is known to offer faster response time. Two types of flexibility, parallel and serial flexibility, are studied in this paper. As an extension, we deal with the case where there occur server failures. And we show the improvement in waiting time by having flexibility in case of server failures. In deriving the improvement of flexibility, we apply the heavy traffic...

Today, since the contemporary world is changing to meet the needs of various people, the aim should be to provide a condition for areas and buildings in order to respond to the needs of various shapes, its future audience requirements, adaptability, flexibility, versatility, etc. Since the scarcity of environmental resources and ecological crises in the world today cannot justify the demolition...

Three-dimensional electron microscopy (3D-EM) is a powerful technology for imaging macromolecular complexes. Through a process known as singleparticle reconstruction, tens of thousands of separate images of a complex of interest are used to arrive at a single resolved structure. Although this method works sufficiently well for rigid macromolecular complexes, conformationally flexible complexes ...

A flexible-joint robot manipulator is a complex system because it is nonlinear, multivariable, highly coupled along with joint flexibility and uncertainty. To overcome flexibility, several methods have been proposed based on flexible model. This paper presents a novel method for controlling flexible-joint robot manipulators. A novel control law is presented by compensating flexibility to form a...
