In this paper, we use a combination of Legendre and Block-Pulse functionson the interval [0; 1] to solve the nonlinear integral equation of the second kind.The nonlinear part of the integral equation is approximated by Hybrid Legen-dre Block-Pulse functions, and the nonlinear integral equation is reduced to asystem of nonlinear equations. We give some numerical examples. To showapplicability of...

background: this study is the first research investigating the possible effect of pulsed power signals on the characteristics of cortical bone by comparing the mechanical properties of this type of bone pre and post expose to pulsed power. methods: a positive buck-boost converter was applied to generate adjustable high voltage, high frequency pulses (up to 500 v and 10 khz). the functional beha...

results roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 94% can predict hypoxemia (pao2 < 60 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 95%. furthermore, there are associations between the roc-derived spo2 threshold of ≤ 97% and detection of hypoxemia (pao2 < 70 mmhg) with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 46%. the accuracy of pulse oximetry was not affected by the severity of liver disease...

recently, the block-pulse functions (bpfs) are used in solving electromagnetic scattering problem, which are modeled as linear fredholm integral equations (fies) of the second kind. but the theoretical aspect of this method has not fully investigated yet. in this article, in addition to presenting a new approach for solving fie of the second kind, the theory of both methods is investigated as a...

conclusions the results suggest that massage reduced hospitalization anxiety, pr, and bp. therefore, we propose that nurses can use massage to reduce anxiety in school-age children in hospital. this method has no side-effects and is easily applicable. background the outcomes of hospitalization anxiety are mental health disorders. one of the methods of anxiety reduction is massage, which can cau...

nicu alloy nanowires arrays were embedded into the anodic aluminum oxide (aao) template by ac-pulse electrodeposition. different off-time were used in electrolyte with constant concentration of ni and cu and acidity of 3. the effect of deposition parameters on alloy contents was investigated by studying the microstructure and magnetic properties of as-deposited nicu alloy nanowires. atomic forc...
