Background: Medication interactions are associated with various unwanted adverse drug reactions. Medication Reconciliation involves a process in which a complete list of patient's previously prescribed medications are recorded and subsequently evaluated within the context of concomitantly prescribed medications and present medical condition during the hospitalization. Method: Medical records ...

Hexagrid structural system is an innovated system with structural behavior which is similar to a tubular system. In this paper, a numerical study is conducted to estimate the seismic performance of horizontal hexagrid concerning the combined horizontal and vertical hexagrid, tubular and diagrid structural systems. First 30 and 50 story buildings are modeled using ETABS, then pushover and nonlin...

abstract - one of the important problems in grid environments is data replication in grid sites. reliability and availability of data replication in some cases is considered low. to separate sites with high reliability and high availability of sites with low availability and low reliability, clustering can be used. in this study, the data grid dynamically evaluate and predict the condition of t...

It has been argued that linked open data is the major benefit of semantic technologies for the web as it provides a huge amount of structured data that can be accessed in a more effective way than web pages. While linked open data avoids many problems connected with the use of expressive ontologies such as the knowledge acquisition bottleneck, data heterogeneity remains a challenging problem. I...

We formulate the problem of dynamic texture synthesis as a nonlinear manifold learning and traversing problem. We characterize dynamic textures as the temporal changes in spectral parameters of image sequences. For continuous changes of such parameters, it is commonly assumed that all these parameters lie on or close to a low-dimensional manifold embedded in the original configuration space. Fo...

in this paper, homotopy perturbation method (hpm) has been applied to investigate the effect of magnetic field on cu-water nanofluid flow in non-parallel walls. the validity of hpm solutions were verified by comparing with numerical results obtained using a fourth order runge–kutta method. effects of active parameters on flow have been presented graphically. the results show that velocity in bo...

the problem of observer design for nonlinear systems has got great attention in the recent literature. the nonlinear observer has been a topic of interest in control theory. in this research, a modified robust sliding-mode observer (smo) is designed to accurately estimate the state variables of nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances and model uncertainties. the observer has a simple ...

in this paper, pile behavior embedded in layered soil deposits subjected to seismic loadings is analyzed using a nonlinear fiber element for simulation of soil – pile interactions. in the created model, both pile and surrounding soil are modeled using fiber elements in a practical beam on nonlinear winkler foundation (bnwf) concept. herein, the features of drain–3dx finite element software are ...
