This paper adopts the slacks-based measure-directional distance function (SBM-DDF, 2009) method for deriving the “Green Innovation Growth” rates of 28 manufacturing industries in China. The results indicate that the overall level of green innovation growth in China’s manufacturing is relatively low, with a declining trend. The tradeoffs among energy, environment and economy are rather sharp, an...

A single-carrier multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with frequency-selective channels suffers from the inter-symbol interference (ISI) and the co-channel interference (CCI). To eliminate both type of interference, we propose in this letter a hybrid two-stage decisionfeedback equalizer (HTS-DFE), which performs the frequency-domain equalization (FDE) in the first stage and the layered ...

The critical point equation arises as a of the total scalar curvature functional defined on space constant metrics unit volume compact manifold. In this equation, there exists function f manifold that satisfies following $$\begin{aligned} (1+f)\mathrm{Ric} = Ddf + \frac{nf +n-1}{n(n-1)}sg. \end{aligned}$$ It has been conjectured if (g, f) is solution then g Einstein and so (M, g) isometric to s...

Abstract Background Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is an early feature of diabetic cardiomyopathy, which usually precedes the onset systolic and diastolic (DDF). Continuous intracoronary thermodilution allows accurate reproducible assessment absolute coronary blood flow resistance thus allowing evaluation reserve (CFR) Microvascular Resistance Reserve (MRR), a novel index specific for...

BACKGROUND The construct validity of alexithymia and its assessment using the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) in Japan is unknown. Low reliability has been found for the third factor of the TAS-20 in some cultures, and the factor structure for psychosomatic disorder patients has not been adequately investigated. Although alexithymia most likely has certain developmental aspects, this...

The surface characteristics, such as wettability and roughness, play an important role in heat transfer performance in the field of microfluidic flow. In this paper, the process of a hot liquid flowing through a microchannel with cold walls, which possesses different surface wettabilities and microstructures, is simulated by a transient double-distribution function (DDF) two-phase thermal latti...

The need continues to grow for mutation identification in genetic disease in both research and clinical settings. We have developed a rapid nonradioactive bidirectional dideoxy fingerprint mutation screening procedure that is performed using an automated DNA analyzer. This technique features standardized primers and easily interpreted results from separate, but simultaneously collected, images ...
