Abstract Cardio-mechanic models show substantial promise for improving personalised diagnosis and disease risk prediction. However, estimating the constitutive parameters from strains extracted in vivo cardiac magnetic resonance scans can be challenging. The reason is that circumferential strains, which are comparatively easy to extract, not sufficiently informative uniquely estimate all parame...

The research aimed to investigate the students’ ability and explore difficulties in writing recount text. This used a case study, design was presented using descriptive qualitative method. subject of study first year students MA NW Nabi’ Nubu’ Kekait which consists 25 students. Writing test interview were instrument research. result showed that mean score 69.92. It means text poor. There three ...

the paper deal with non-commutative geometry. the notion of quantumspheres was introduced by podles. here we define the quantum hermitianmetric on the quantum spaces and find it for the quantum spheres.

This paper introduces issues about a methodology for the design of serious games that help players/learners understand their decisionmaking process. First, we discuss the development of a video game system based on a role-switching mechanic where the player becomes the game leader of the experience. Then, we introduce game mechanics designed to induce a specific behavior, overconfidence, that h...

In this paper, a model of a variable speed wind turbine using a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is presented and the control schemes are proposed. The model presents the aerodynamic part of the wind turbine, the mechanic and the electric parts. Simulations have been conducted with Matlab/Simulink to validate the model and the proposed control schemes.
