objectives in this section, we studied dietary and other factors related to the effect of lifestyle in type 2 diabetes. these factors may affect the incidence of type 2 diabetes which could be corrected by lifestyle modifications. background prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing rapidly worldwide. recent data is reprehensive of increasing diabetes prevalence from 285 millions in 2010 (6.4...

results the results showed that the highest compressive force exerted on the back was equal to 4002 n and the lowest force 1425 n. moreover, 76% of the tasks were reported to have the highest compressive force greater than the recommended limit; 72% of the tasks had an li 1 - 3 and 28% of them had an li less than 1. there was a weak direct correlation between compressive force and rwl. backgrou...

A nonlinear model consisting “yaw, roll, longitudinal, lateral and pitch” has been developed in which, tire and suspension characteristics have been considered. Tire model is based on the elliptic concept and tire Calspan data. According to this tire model, cornering force and aligning moment are computed as a function of slip and camber (inclination) angles, normal load, tire adhesion characte...

Obviously navigation is one of the most complicated issues in mobile robots. Intelligent algorithms are often used for error handling in robot navigation. This Paper deals with the problem of Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) error handling by using Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) as an Expert Algorithms. Our focus is put on the field of mobile robot navigation in the 2D environments. The main chall...

background: iran is considered among top ten countries in the world where disasters are most likely to happen, and it ranks 4th in asia after india, bangladesh and china. hospitals are playing important roles in both predictable and unpredictable emergencies. however, crisis management model in a hospital requires careful program planning. this study aimed to survey all kermanshah university of...

This section discusses several additional constraint-handling methods which have been proposed in connection with evolutionary techniques.

conclusions the prevalence of msds among the nurses was high, and the occurrence of such disorders was found to be related to the scores of mapo and ptai indices. based on the results, these two indices can be used as appropriate tools to assess the risk of msds in patient handling by nursing staff. the risk of developing msds can be lowered through interventional programs, such as providing an...

Solid waste management is challenging in Phnom Penh city, Capital of Cambodia. The only one formal treatment taken is the final disposal of mixed waste into an open dumpsite. The current study analyses the physical and chemical characteristics of municipal solid waste disposed of in the dumpsite to assess their suitable handling methods. The current study found that the major compositions of wa...
