the most important factor in evaluating dental health is dmft (decayed, missing, filled, teeth). this research was conducted to compare dmft index in the workers of sweets and cable factories of shahrood (moghan), a small city near 300 km east of tehran. all the 127 production line workers of cable factory and 124 workers of sweets factory who had the predetermined criteria were selected. a que...

Methods of directly coupling sources to cables for-EMP testing are reviewed. Effects of cable impedance, cable shielding, and structure in the vicini,ty of the cable are examined. Several practical coupling mechanisms are discussed .

Non-repudiation is a security service that provides cryptographic evidence to support the settlement of disputes. In this paper, we introduce the state-of-the-art of multi-party non-repudiation protocols, and analyze the previous work where one originator is able to send the same message to many recipients. We propose a new multi-party non-repudiation protocol for sending different messages to ...

Domotics, Smart Home Systems, Ambient Intelligence are all terms that describe the intelligent cooperation of several different equipments to manage the home environment in an intelligent, safe and comfortable way. The same idea is also applicable to bigger constructions, and in that case it takes the name of Building Automation. Whatever term one wants to use, it refers to a multidisciplinary ...

We present two path planning algorithms for mobile robots that are connected by cable to a fixed base. Our algorithms efficiently compute the shortest path and control strategy that lead the robot to the target location considering cable length and obstacle interactions. First, we focus on cable-obstacle collisions. We introduce and formally analyze algorithms that build and search an overlappe...

In electric power systems, power cable operation under normal conditions is very important. Various cable faults will happen in practical applications. Recognizing the cable faults correctly and in a timely manner is crucial. In this paper we propose a method that an annealed chaotic competitive learning network recognizes power cable types. The result shows a good performance using the support...

Since the high bandwidth and popular usage are the characteristics of cable network, it becomes one of the main solutions for residential network. The cable network is a kind of asymmetric bandwidth architecture, which generates certain performance issues. This article first discusses the issues stemmed from asymmetric bandwidth. It then briefly introduces Data over Cable Service Interface Spec...

Based on the principle of time domain reflectometry(TDR) cable length measurement, the principle error of the TDR cable length measurement is analyzed. Methods for reducing cable length measurement error are analyzed. Two cable length measurement systems based on the TDR principle are designed. The high-precision time interval measurement module is the core of the first measurement system. The ...

This paper presents a theoretical and experimental study on the ampacity of the prefabricated straight-through joint of a 110 kV high voltage cable. Thermal modelling revealed that the critical spot limiting the ampacity of this type of cable joint is located on its crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation section. The axial distribution of the thermal field in this type of cable joint was al...
