Serum bactericidal assays (SBAs) for Group B meningococci are considered the methods of choice for the evaluation of functional antimeningococcal antibodies. Many investigators regard SBAs as time- and labor-intensive. Variations in SBA protocols among different laboratories make interpretation of results difficult. Here we describe a fluorescence-based serum bactericidal assay (fSBA) and compa...

From leveling to SAR-based interferometry, the monitoring of land subsidence in coastal transitional environments significantly improved. However, the simultaneous assessment of the ground movements in these peculiar environments is still challenging. This is due to the presence of relatively small built-up zones and infrastructures, e.g., coastal infrastructures, bridges, and river embankments...

Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC) is the Regional Satellite System (IRNSS) developed by Space Research Organization (ISRO) to provide position and navigation services for region. NavIC or IRNSS individual satellite constellation which has seven satellites covering subcontinent. Accuracy of standalone insufficient in certain applications such as civil aviation. To improve accuracy per...

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Ventrikuläre Arrhythmien treten mit einer hohen Prävalenz auf und sind Morbidität Mortalität assoziiert. Sowohl die obstruktive (OSA) als auch zentrale (ZSA) Schlafapnoe können Grund ihrer Pathophysiologie zu vermehrten ventrikulären beitragen. Ziel Dieser Artikel soll komplexen Zusammenhänge Erkenntnisse jüngster Forschungen bezüglich schlafbezogenen Atmungsstörunge...

It is well known that GPS C/A codes present cross correlation peak potentially causing false acquisitions. These cross-correlations peaks can in addition cause tracking errors and C/No degradation [1], [2], [3] and [4], not in traditional GPS tracking situations, but for applications where signals are received with low Doppler. There are several applications that can have low relative Doppler, ...

GPS users occasionally encounter areas where an insufficient density of satellites exists to support all desired operations. This most often occurs when a primary slot ...

در این پژوهش مسئله زمان‌بندی کار کارگاهی منعطف با ماشین‌های موازی درنظرگرفتن معیار تولید پاک‌تر، منابع دوگانه انسان-ماشین، زمان دسترسی کارها و پردازش وابسته به سرعت ماشین‌ها بررسی می­‌شود. اهداف شامل حداقل­‌کردن مجموع جریمه‌­های دیرکرد زودکرد افزایش است. داده می‌شود تا تکمیل کاهش یابد. درحالی‌که آلودگی صوتی محیط تولیدی منجر توجه رویکرد پاک‌تر که نگرشی پیشگیرانه است، اینجا سعی شده است حداقل­کردن...
