The aim of this study was to investigate pharmacodynamic (PD) interactions in mice infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis using population pharmacokinetics (PKs), the Multistate Tuberculosis Pharmacometric (MTP) model, and the General Pharmacodynamic Interaction (GPDI) model. Rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol, or pyrazinamide were administered in monotherapy for 4 weeks. Rifampicin and isonia...

*(Student, M. Tech in VLSI from KLUniversity, Vijayawada) ** (Member of IEEE, Bengaluru) *** (Assistant Professor in VLSI from KLUniversity, Vijayawada) ABSTRACT Image compression is one of the prominent signal processing areas for multimedia applications. Compressed images when transmitted are affected by noise and thus reconstruction of images at the receiver becomes complex. Very recently Ar...

The size of the shock-layer governed by a conservation law is studied. The conservation law is a parabolic reaction-convection-diffusion equation with a small parameter multiplying the diffusion term and convex flux. Rigorous upper and lower bounding functions for the solution of the conservation law are established based on maximum-principle arguments. The bounding functions demonstrate that t...

extended interaction oscillators (eio) are vacuum electronic sources of microwave, millimeter-wave and terahertz radiations. in this paper, eio is investigated by using a circuit model. the value of the coupling element in the model is evaluated from the near band-edge dispersion characteristics of the rf structure. the end external loading of the interaction structure is equivalently modeled b...

This paper presents the design, construction and testing of a new capacitive tactile sensor for measurement of normal tactile force. The operation of proposed sensor has been investigated in ASTABLE and MONOSTABLE circuits. According to the results of these circuits the deviation of ASTABLE circuit results is less than MONOSTABLE circuit results. In addition, the results obtained from ASTABLE c...

The present research reviews two basic approaches for the separation circuit configuration analysis. The first approach is to optimize the circuit configuration. In this method, after a circuit modeling, a variety of search algorithms and mathematical optimization methods are used. Previous works show that this approach has more application in the flotation process. The second approach called t...

The known fast sequential algorithms for multiplying two N N matrices (over an arbitrary ring) have time complexity O(N), where 2 < < 3. The current best value of is less than 2.3755. We show that for all 1 p N , multiplying two N N matrices can be performed on a p-processor linear array with a reconngurable pipelined bus system (LARPBS) in O N p + N 2 p 2== log p time. This is currently the fa...
