A simple technique is described for the rapid and accurate calibration of flask press spring loads for studies in which denture base resins require to be processed under uniform loading conditions. The technique was evaluated in com­ mercially available flask presses and was found to perform with a high degree of precision. It offers a simple solution to the problem of standardising flask press...

This research uses exploratory, mixed-method case studies to explore the relationship between Australian micro- and small presses (MSPs), their publishing promotion of writers difference (WODs), Couldry’s (2010) concept voice. Through structured interviews with two houses WODs, I (a) identified MSPs’ strategies for promoting silenced neglected writers, thus facilitating expression voice; (b) le...

With the advancements in newer electronic technologies, need for power/battery charges has risen exponentially. Harvesting renewable energy, which can be subsequently used to power these devices is solution consumption problem. In this work, we develop a piezo electric generator, produces energy when person walks on it or presses with his/her feet. This generated then light up LEDs mounted floo...

This paper presents a hypothetical Supreme Court judgment issued in response to similarly entrenchment problem arising the context of United Kingdom's withdrawal from European Union. The article imagines scenario which Conservative government facing electoral defeat presses legislation through Parliament is intended entrench - very high degree withdrawal. litigation suggests that would upheld s...

studies have shown that oxygenated compounds and tss/ta are important for beverage and food industries. it seems that citrus rootstocks have a profound influence on oxygenated compounds and tss/ta. the aim of this research is to identify rootstock that can synthesize the maximum level of oxygenated compounds and tss/ta. peel oil was extracted using mechanical presses and eluted using n-hexane. ...

Relay attacks pose a significant threat against communicating devices that are required to operate within a short-distance from each other and a restricted time frame. In the field of smart cards, distance bounding protocols have been proposed as an effective countermeasure, whereas, in the field of smartphones, many proposals suggest the use of (natural) ambient sensing as an effective alterna...

The posterior sector of Broca's area (Brodmann area 44), a brain region critical for language, may have evolved from neurons active during observation and execution of manual movements. Imaging studies showing increased Broca's activity during execution, imagination, imitation and observation of hand movements support this hypothesis. Increased Broca's activity in motor task, however, may simpl...

Recent research has demonstrated that cortical motor areas are engaged when observing motor actions of others. However, little is known about the possible contribution of the motor system for evaluating the correctness of others' actions. To address this question we designed an MEG experiment in which subjects were executing and observing motor actions with and without errors. In the execution ...
