Asymmetries in sagittal plane knee kinetics have been identified as a risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) re-injury. Clinical tools are needed to identify the asymmetries. This study examined the relationships between knee kinetic asymmetries and ground reaction force (GRF) asymmetries during athletic tasks in adolescent patients following ACL reconstruction (ACL-R). Kinematic and ...

We propose a fast and accurate signal quality monitoring scheme that uses convolutional neural networks for error vector magnitude (EVM) estimation in coherent optical communications. build regression model to extract EVM information from complex constellation diagrams using small number of received symbols. For the additive-white-Gaussian-noise-impaired channel, proposed shows normalized mean ...

Genetic correlations of selection indices and the traits considered in these indices with mature weight (MW) of Nelore females and correlated responses were estimated to determine whether current selection practices will result in an undesired correlated response in MW. Genetic trends for weaning and yearling indices and MW were also estimated. Data from 612,244 Nelore animals born between 1984...

A fully integrated pulsewidth modulator for Class-S power amplifiers is presented. It consists of a triangular signal generator, a comparator and output buffer. The HBT BiCMOS design of PWM circuit is applied to the LTE frequency range, which converts digitally modulated 955MHz RF carrier with 2.87GHz sampling clock. This PWM shows an EVM 6.6%, a differential output voltage swing 1.35Vp-p with ...

By exploiting multiple non-degenerate four-wave mixing in a silicon-organic hybrid slot waveguide and 16-ary phase-shift keying signals, we propose and simulate three-input (A, B, C) multicasted 40-Gbaud (160-Gbit/s) optical hexadecimal addition/subtraction (A + B - C, A + C - B, B + C - A, A + B + C, A - B - C, B - A - C). The error vector magnitude (EVM) and dynamic range of signal power are ...

conclusions abnormal eating attitude was notable among physical education students in tabriz, iran. it seems that some anthropometric indices such as bmi and central obesity indices were related to the increase of disordered eating attitude. background abnormal eating behavior, unhealthy weight control methods, and eating disordered symptoms have risen among college students. objectives the aim...

We consider topological indices I that are sums of f(deg(u))f(deg(v)), where {u, v} are adjacent vertices and f is a function. The Randić connectivity index or the Zagreb group index are examples for indices of this kind. In earlier work on topological indices that are sums of independent random variables, we identified the correlation between I and the edge set of the molecular graph as the ma...

For more than five decades, Earned Value Management Systems (EVMS) have been applied by organizations to manage their projects in different industries. However, many still struggle apply (EVM) techniques assess and reliably control project outcomes. This work investigated the state of practice EVMS. paper identifies challenges facing practitioners, critical EVMS subprocesses, key environment fa...
