Air-jet weaving is an advanced weaving method with high efficiency and productivity. It is one of the most widely used methods of weaving in the world. In air-jet filling insertion, the motion of weft yarn is caused by friction between weft yarn and air blown through nozzle. After declamping and subjecting the yarn to air stream, its motion is not active but very complicated and influenced by ...

We introduce a new class of event shapes to characterize the jet-like structure of an event. Like traditional event shapes, our observables are infrared/collinear safe and involve a sum over all hadrons in an event, but like a jet clustering algorithm, they incorporate a jet radius parameter and a transverse momentum cut. Three of the ubiquitous jet-based observables — jet multiplicity, summed ...

Creating active, student-centered learning situations in postsecondary education is an ongoing challenge for engineering educators. Contemporary students familiar with visually engaging and fast-paced games can find traditional classroom methods of lecture and guided laboratory experiments limiting. This paper presents a methodology that incorporates driving simulation, motion simulation, and e...

To the Editor-The case report by Baraka’ of jet ventilation through an airway exchange catheter (Cook Critical Care, Bloomington, IL) complicated by tension pneumothorax and cardiac asystole highlights some of the serious dangers of jet ventilation. I would like to focus on three aspects of the case report. The lessons from these can be added to the recommendations made by Baraka at the end of ...

Tissues throughout the body exhibit circadian rhythms, forming a multioscillatory system whose disruption results in jet lag and other health problems in travelers and rotational shift workers. The authors' simulations of the dynamics of a multistage circadian system (based on experimental results for nocturnal rodents) reveal the flexibility and stability inherent in a multistage system, as we...

We present the first multi-frequency phase-referenced observations of Cygnus A done with the VLBA at 15 and 22 GHz. We find a pronounced two-sided jet structure, with a steep spectrum along the jet and a highly inverted spectrum towards the counter-jet. The inverted spectrum and the frequency dependent jet to counter-jet ratio suggest an obscuring torus in front of the counter-jet. From 14 epoc...

The strong modifications of dijet properties in heavy ion collisions measured by ATLAS and CMS provide important constraints on the dynamical mechanisms underlying jet quenching. In this work, we show that the transport of soft gluons away from the jet cone — jet collimation — can account for the observed dijet asymmetry with values of q̂ L that lie in the expected order of magnitude. Further, w...

driver fatigue may impose the risk of crashes and is a leading cause of death in transportation industry. this study aimed to detect driver cognitive fatigue based on changes in eeg frequency bands in non-professional drivers during a simulated driving task. in a descriptive-analytical study, 12 healthy male car drivers took part in a two hour driving session on a simulated monotonous road, whi...
