Two generalized uniform structures namely fuzzy quasi-uniformity and fuzzy local quasi-uniformity are introduced. Conditions of fuzzy quasi-uniformizability and quasi-metrizability are examined. Mathematics Subject Classification: 54E15, 54A20

The sarcomere length non-uniformity theory (SLNT) is a widely accepted explanation for residual force enhancement (RFE). RFE is the increase in steady-state isometric force following active muscle stretching. The SLNT predicts that active stretching of a muscle causes sarcomere lengths (SL) to become non-uniform, with some sarcomeres stretched beyond actin-myosin filament overlap (popping), cau...

Uniform deposition of nanofibers in the massive electrospinning process is critical in the industrial applications of nanofibers. Tip-Induced Electrospinning (TIE) is a cost-effective large-scale nanofiber-manufacturing method, but it has poor deposition uniformity. An auxiliary conductive electrode connected to the emitting electrode was introduced to improve the deposition uniformity of the n...

We present a condition that guarantees spatially uniformity in the solution trajectories of a diffusivelycoupled compartmental ODE model, where each compartment represents a spatial domain of components interconnected through diffusion terms with like components in different compartments. Each set of like components has its own weighted undirected graph describing the topology of the interconne...

We apply techniques from complexity theory to a model of biological cellular membranes known as membrane systems or P-systems. Like circuits, membrane systems are defined as uniform families. To date, polynomial time uniformity has been the accepted uniformity notion for membrane systems. Here, we introduce the idea of using AC and Luniformities and investigate the computational power of membra...

OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the best parameters for rapid performance of daily quality control testing of intrinsic uniformity and relative sensitivity for the single-head gamma-camera system in our nuclear medicine department. METHODS The effects of the following parameters on intrinsic uniformity were studied: gamma source activity, number of acquired counts for the flood image, source...

Different designs have been presented to achieve high concentration and uniformity for the concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) system. Most of the designs have issues of low efficiency in terms of irradiance uniformity. To this end, we present a design methodology to increase irradiance uniformity over solar cell. The system consists of an eight-fold Fresnel lens as a primary optical element (POE) ...

Testing for uniformity of multivariate data is the initial step in exploratory pattern analysis. We propose a new uniformity testing method, which first computes the maximum (standardized) edge length in the MST of the given data. Large lengths indicate the existence of well-separated clusters or outliers in the data. For the data passing this edge inconsistency test, we generate two sub-sample...

In view of the uneven artificial sowing, low sowing, as well as the fact that the existing seeders cannot meet the sowing requirements of Pteris vittata, this paper designed an automatic plug seeder by using the method of spraying and sowing after mixing spores and water. In order to obtain the optimum working parameters of the seeder, response surface method (RSM) was employed to desi...
