Abstract “Queer” is a relatively recent and somewhat controversial term in African studies. Yet it proving to be productive, not only for understanding subjectivities of sexuality gender, but also situating Africa’s position the larger economy knowledge. Otu van Klinken explore productive tensions between “queer” “Africa,” aim read Africa as queer from Africa. Thus, rather than imagining polar ...

Although the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is conventionally accepted as a sagittal joint with little mobility in other planes, recent research has shown evidence for reduced hip abduction and axial rotation in patients with sacroiliac pain. A sample of healthy individuals was investigated to determine whether innominate motion about the sacroiliac joint can be predicted from abduction and external ro...

A data set is a matrix D = {f (1), ..., f (m)} (D ∈ Rnx×m), where the rows correspond to objects and the columns are features f (i). A data set is generated by a structure, parameterized by a symmetric matrix S ∈ Rnt×nt . Each row/column in S corresponds to a node in the graph. The set of object nodes is called X and cluster nodes is called Z, where nx and nz are their cardinalities, combining ...

This papex reviews and.iJ1ustrates a direct manipulation approach to visualization of high dimensional data, called painting. We describe a programming model based on constraints between entities in the underlying scientific database and the components of plots used to examine the data. The object-oriented implementation makes it easy to extend the original notion of brushing scatterplots to ob...

Background: Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) movement has been investigated in many studies using a motion analysis system; however, the reliability of this method not well defined yet. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate measuring three-dimensional (3D) SIJ through system. Methods: A total 10 healthy participants performed three forward flexions from standing position twice one session with an i...

We study the structural properties of the neural network of the C.elegans (worm) from a directed graph point of view. The Google matrix analysis is used to characterize the neuron connectivity structure and node classifications are discussed and compared with physiological properties of the cells. Our results are obtained by a proper definition of neural directed network and subsequent eigenvec...

Impinging jets are characterized by an acoustic feedback resonance capable of generating intense tones. This investigation examines changes in single impinging jet (SIJ) dynamics when another is added alongside to form a dual (DIJ) arrangement interest vertical takeoff and landing applications. The emphasis on the hydrodynamic coupling region between jets, which affects aircraft surface loading...
