Based on an expanded distorted-wave approximation, analytical intensity expressions are derived for phasesensitive reference-beam x-ray diffraction in both the transmission and the reflection cases. Results from this approach are compared with the rigorous n-beam dynamical theory calculations and are shown to be very accurate if the crystal is in the thin kinematic limit. The method represents ...

results of velocity structure modeling in the earth's crust using a comparison approach of receiver function analysis and joint inversion of receiver functions with surface wave dispersion data are presented in this paper. seismograms of the teleseismic events that have been recorded on a broadband seismic station in the central alborz were used for data processing. velocity models that we...

The holographic description of Pomeron exchange in a strongly-coupled gauge theory with an AdS dual is extended to the case of two to three scattering. We study the production event of a central particle via hadron-hadron scattering in the double Regge kinematic regime of large center-of-momentum energy and fixed momentum transfer. The computation reduces to the overlap of a holographic wave fu...

Abstract Although catheterization is the gold standard, Doppler echocardiography is the preferred diastolic function (DF) characterization method. The physiology of diastole requires continuity of left ventricular pressure (LVP)-generating forces before and after mitral valve opening (MVO). Correlations between isovolumic relaxation (IVR) indexes such as tau (time-constant of IVR) and noninvasi...

in this paper, behavior of teleoperation systems with modeling error and delay time error in smith predictor is discussed. in teleoperation systems, modeling error is inevitable. this paper discusses stability of teleoperation systems with modeling error. first, error of delay time in teleoperation systems by using of internet as communication channel is considered and the performance of smith ...

In this paper, kinematic modeling and singularity analysis of a three DOF redundant parallel manipulator has been elaborated in detail. It is known, that on the contrary to series manipulators, the forward kinematic map of parallel manipulators involves highly coupled nonlinear equations, whose closed-form solution derivation is a real challenge. This issue is of great importance noting that th...

The vertex potential is the largest response that can be recorded in the electroencephalogram of an awake, healthy human. It is elicited by sudden and intense stimuli, and is composed by a negative-positive deflection. The stimulus properties that determine the vertex potential amplitude have been well characterized. Nonetheless, its functional significance remains elusive. The dominant interpr...

In this paper we extend the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards kinematic wave traffic flow model to describe traffic with different types of vehicles, where all types of vehicles are completely mixed and travel at the same group velocity. A study of such a model with two vehicle classes (e.g., passenger cars and trucks) shows that, when both classes of traffic have identical free-flow speeds, the model...

Channel flow routing provides information on the movement of flood wave as it travels downstream. From the flood forecast viewpoint, it is desirable to have some knowledge about the expected arrival time of peak flow. However, many parameters involved in the flow routing model, in reality, can not be quantified with certainty. In this paper, a probabilistic analysis using the Mellin transform i...
