Abstract An accurate compact MOSFETs model that can deal with effects of temperature drift is prerequisite for analog circuit design. Although the mobility behavior at high vertical field region is important for simulating analog circuits, however current physics based models neglect the temperature dependence of that at this region. In this paper, a new mobility model at high vertical field re...

-This paper describes the realization of a fuzzy controller which implements the simplified inference mechanism. CMOS analog circuits where signals are represented as currents are employed. However, the whole system is externally communicated through voltages, thus enabling simple interface with conventional control circuitry.

In 1986, Mills and Robbins observed by computer the continued fraction expansion of certain algebraic power series over a finite field. Incidentally, they came across a particular equation of degree four in characteristic p = 13. This equation has an analogue for all primes p ≥ 5. There are two patterns for the continued fraction of the solution of this equation, according to the residue of p m...

We study variational problems for surfaces in Euclidean space for functionals involving curvatures. Particularly, we study both the classical Willmore surfaces and their anisotropic analogue.

BACKGROUND Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) clearance are associated with an improved prognosis in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. These end points are more often achieved with a one-year course of pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) compared with one year of nucleoside/nucleotide analogue therapy. However, prolonged nucleoside/nucleotide analogue therapy may...

BACKGROUND Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for patients with chronic painful osteoporotic compression fractures has not been extensively studied. OBJECTIVE To prospectively evaluate the efficacy of PVP for patients with chronic painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs). METHODS Sixty-two consecutive patients with chronic painful osteoporotic VCFs for ≥3 months underwent ...

abstract the gnrh analogue (agonist and antagonist gnrh) changed ovarian stimulation. on the one hand, it improved chances of pregnancy to obtain more oocytes and better embryos. this leads to an ovarian hyper-response, which can be complicated by the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss). on the other hand, the gnrh analogue can prevent the incidence of ohss: gnrh antagonist protocols, gnrh...
