Let $G$ and $H$ be graphs. The tensor product $Gotimes H$ of $G$ and $H$ has vertex set $V(Gotimes H)=V(G)times V(H)$ and edge set $E(Gotimes H)={(a,b)(c,d)| acin E(G):: and:: bdin E(H)}$. In this paper, some results on this product are obtained by which it is possible to compute the Wiener and Hyper Wiener indices of $K_n otimes G$.

in exploration seismology, estimation of elastic parameters of rocks using seismic amplitudes is considered as inverse problems. nowadays, model-based and more generally optimization-based algorithms are of the most common methods of seismic inversion. these algorithms which are known as deterministic methods, are suffering from two main problems; first, vertical resolution of outputs is very l...

This paper proposes an impedance control method for redundant manipulators, which can control not only the endpoint impedance using one of the conventional impedance control methods, but the joint impedance which has no effects on the end-point impedance. First, a sufficient condition for the joint impedance controller is derived. Then, the optimal controller for a given desired joint impedance...

Electrical impedance of biological matter is known as electrical bioimpedance or simply as bio-impedance. Bio-impedance devices are of great value for monitoring the pathological and physiological status of biological tissues in clinical and home environments. The technological progress in instrumentation has significantly contributed to the progress that has been observed during the last past ...

BACKGROUND The impedance baseline has been shown to reflect esophageal integrity, and to be decreased in patients with esophagitis. However, different methods for the determination of the impedance baseline have not been compared. METHODS The median impedance baseline was calculated in 10 consecutive multichannel intraluminal impedance recordings in children with non-erosive reflux disease. A...

Assessment of patterns of flow in the small bowel is difficult. Multiple intraluminal impedance has been recently used for study of flow dynamics in the esophagus. Our aims were 1) to validate multiple intraluminal impedance by correlating impedance events with intestinal flow as detected by fluoroscopy and 2) to determine intestinal flow patterns in the fasting and postprandial period and thei...

BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode impedance is a major determinant of current delivery to target tissues, but long-term variation in impedance has received little attention. OBJECTIVES To assess the relationship between electrode impedance and time in a large DBS patient population and characterize the relationship between contact activity and impedance. METHODS We collected...

A sample holder was designed and built to facilitate measuring the magnitude and phase angle of the electrical impedance of internodal stem sections from Cornus stolonifera Michx. A nonpolarizing, electrically conducting manganese dioxidecarbon paste used between the stem sample and the electrodes of the sample holder allowed measurement of impedance at frequencies from 50 hertz to 500 kilohert...
