Inter-comparisons of European air quality models show that regional transport models, including the EMEP (Cooperative Programme for monitoring and evaluation of the long-range transmission of air pollutants in Europe) aerosol model, tend to underestimate the observed concentrations of PM 10 and PM 2.5. Obviously, an accurate representation of the individual aerosol constituents is a prerequisit...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling hybrid flowshops with machine availability constraints (MAC) to minimize makespan. The paper deals with a specific case of MAC caused by preventive maintenance (PM) operations. Contrary to previous papers considering fixed or/and conservative policies, we explore a case in which PM activities might be postponed or expedited while necessary. Regardi...

در این مقاله سیستم تأمین انرژی و تخلیه جریان سیم‌­پیچ چنبره‌ای توکامک دماوند به منظور افزایش زمان میدان‌های مغناطیسی با هدف ماندگاری پلاسما، طراحی شبیه‌سازی شده است. حال حاضر سیم­‌پیچ دارای نیم سیکل سینوسی مدت ms 100 پیک kA 12 است که میدان مغناطیس تقریباً T 1/1 مرکز چنبره تولید می‌کند ناحیه تخت آن حدود 20 می‌باشد برای تشکیل محصورسازی پلاسما استفاده می‌گردد. ارتقاء 200، ضروری سیستم‌های کنترل مربو...

background: the role of diagnostic pathology has become more prominent. this study aimed to compare the accuracy of frozen section compared with permanent section in the morning and afternoon working hours. methods: in this cross-sectional study, 99 patients with stage 1 and 2 breast cancer who underwent sentinel and non-sentinel lymph node biopsy between 2013 and 2015 were included. the result...

BACKGROUND Particulate matter (PM) exposure has been linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease, possibly resulting from hypercoagulability and thrombosis. Lung and systemic inflammation resulting from PM inhalation may activate blood coagulation, but mechanisms for PM-related hypercoagulability are still largely unknown. OBJECTIVES To identify coagulation mechanisms activated by PM i...

Simulating human agents requires going beyond merely simulating the cognitive abilities of a human. It requires an analysis of human perceptual-motor abilities, the task being performed, and the artifact being used to perform the task. ACTR/PM is a system designed to foster such analyses.
