The current near a right-angled comer on a perfectly conducting flat scatterer illuminated by a plane wave is expressed as a sum of three currents. The first is the physical optics (PO) current, which describes the surface effect. The second is the fringe wave (FW) current, which is found from the half-plane solution and accounts for the distortion of the current caused by the edges. The third ...

A series of devices have been investigated which use acoustic radiation forces to concentrate micron sized particles. These multi-layered resonators use a quarter-wavelength resonance in order to position an acoustic pressure node close to the top surface of a fluid layer such that particles migrate towards this surface. As flow-through devices, it is then possible to collect a concentrate of p...

This study estimates the price determinants of show quality Quarter Horses sold at auction. Several characteristics including genetic and physical traits, the quality of pedigree, and sale order affect price. Sale price is positively affected by a strong performance record of the horse as well as the performance record of the horse’s offspring. A common practice at horse auctions is for the sel...

A floorplan of a bounding box is its dissection into rectangles (rooms) by horizontal and vertical segments. This paper proposes a string data structure called the Quarter-state sequence (or Q sequence) to represent the floorplan. The Q sequence is a concatenation of the states of rooms along the Abe order and is related to the VH graph, which is the union of the vertical-constraint and horizon...

We consider a nearly hyperbolic Sasakian manifold endowed with a quarter symmetric non-metric connection and study CRsubmanifolds of nearly hyperbolic Sasakian manifold endowed with a quarter symmetric nonmetric connection. We also obtain parallel distributions and discuss inerrability conditions of distributions on CR-submanifolds of nearly hyperbolic Sasakian manifold with quarter symmetric n...

the present study aimed to estimate the effects of parity, calving season and year of calving on the prevalence of subclinical mastitis in holstein cows. a total of 2682 records from 869 holstein cows in a large dairy farm (azarbaijan province, iran), respecting the period from 2006 to 2009, were collected. data was analyzed using proc mixed of sas software by mivque method. subclinical mastiti...

The notational analysis is used to investigate teams' performance in water polo, especially focused on the determinants of success. Recently, a new topic has emerged "the situational variables," which includes the game conditions that may influence the performance at a behavioral level. The aim of this study was to identify the interactive effects of starting quarter score (SQS) (i.e., score di...

The initial boundary-value problem for the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation on the negative quarter-plane, x < 0 and t > 0, is considered. The formulation of this problem is different to the usual initial boundary-value problem on the positive quarter-plane, for which x > 0 and t > 0. Two boundary conditions are required at x = 0 for the negative quarter-plane problem, in contrast to the one bo...
