1. Uniformity and correlation 1 1.

Introduction. The purpose of this report is to draw attention to some nontrivial connections between the ("continuous") theory of irregularities of distribution and discrete mathematics. The object of the theory of irregularities of distribution is to measure the uniformity (or nonuniformity) of sequences and point sets. For instance: how uniformly can an arbitrary set of N points in the unit c...

The accurate production of a rainfall environment similar to natural rainfall by a rainfall simulator (RS) is a crucial and challenging task in rainfall instrument testing or calibration. Although the spatial uniformity of rainfall accumulation is a key parameter of an RS, the spatial uniformity comparison between simulated rainfall and natural rainfall, and the spatial uniformity improvements ...

system evaluations were performed on 48 center pivots in different parts of saudi arabia. these systems, located on different farms in four different regions of the country, namely: riyadh, jouf, qassim and eastern regions, were evaluated to study the effect of lateral configuration on water application uniformity as regards the original vs. modified laterals. lateral configuration modification...

The sprinkler irrigation system is the most widely used for rubber in a nursery. However, method associated with high water loss during irrigation. In view of this, an experiment was conducted to assess effect different systems on growth dynamics, leaf ratio analyses, productivity, and use efficiency seedlings. treatments were systems; soil + overhead (CON), growing media (GM) drip (DRP), GM ca...

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the optimal formula effervescent tablets 70% ethanol extract Kelakai root (Stenochlaena palutris (Burm. f.) Bedd.) with variations concentration in gas generating agents and their effects on properties physical tablet.
 Methods: was extracted maceration using 70%, total phenolic-flavonoids contents were determined. Effervescent made for thre...

Direct measurements were made on 2,166 lumbar vertebrae of 433 adult negro and caucasoid skeletons. On statistical analysis, forty-five vertebrae in twenty-seven skeletons were found to be stenotic, the mid-sagittal diameter being the significantly reduced dimension. Whereas spinal stenosis syndromes are rare in South African negroes, the lumbar canal is marginally narrower in the negro. There ...

This paper presents a detailed study of the nonuniform bipolar conduction phenomenon under electrostatic discharge (ESD) events in single-finger NMOS transistors and analyzes its implications for the design of ESD protection for deep-submicron CMOS technologies. It is shown that the uniformity of the bipolar current distribution under ESD conditions is severely degraded depending on device fing...
