The effect of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and [7-9]-vasopressin on different memory types was examined in tests of active avoidance, passive avoidance and water maze after both intraventricular and subcutaneous injections. Results were compared with AVP and [7-9]AVP effects in open field and holeboard tests. Significant latency time elongation was observed after both icv and s.c. injections of A...

A negative pressure chamber rotary precision seed metering device was designed to achieve the buckwheat sowing goal, solving problems of traditional poor sealing and air suction high power consumption. The planting plate fixedly connected with shell forming a chamber, which rotates around an axis. suitable for designed. Single factor test response surface were carried out on device. Results sho...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term bond strengths of dentin adhesive systems, which include one-step self-etch adhesive systems (Optibond All-in-one, Kerr; Adper Prompt L-POP, 3 M ESPE), a three-step etch-and-rinse adhesive (Optibond FL, Kerr) and two-step self-etch adhesive (AdheSE Bond, Ivoclar), applied to pulp chamber dentin surfaces after 12-month water storage ...

The cylinder working fluid mean temperature, rate of heat fluxes to combustion chamber and temperature distribution on combustion chamber surface will be calculated in this research. By simulating thermodynamic cycle of engine, temperature distribution of combustion chamber will be calculated by the Crank-Nicolson method. An implicit finite difference method was used in this code. Special treat...

An inhalation exposure chamber, referred to as the Small Animal Inhalation Rig (SAIR) has been designed to expose test subjects to inhalation aerosols whilst minimising the amount of compound used. This inhalation chamber may be employed for acute inhalation studies with dry powder aerosols involving mice, rats or guinea pigs. This rig consists of two main parts; a fluidised bed aerosol generat...

We have developed a straw tube chamber with pickup-pad readout. The mechanism for signal pickup, the size of the pickup signal, and the distribution of signals among neighboring pads are discussed. We have tested a prototype chamber in a beam test at Brookhaven National Laboratory and have measured chamber e$ciencies in excess of 99%. ( 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) has been used in prototyped vehicles to test vehicle-to-vehicle communication for collision avoidance. However, there is little study on how collision avoidance software should behave to best mitigate accident collisions. In this paper, we analyse the timing of events and how they influence software-based collision avoidance strategies. We have found t...
