The effects of spatial non-uniformity in material parameters on the electrostatic transfer of toners from photoreceptors to receiving media are investigated with the charge transport model of dielectric relaxation in the receiver. The parameters considered include intrinsic charge density, charge mobility, charge injection strength and permittivity of the receiving media. The detrimental effect...

Spatial uniformity is one of the most important image quality attributes in visual experience of displays. In conventional researches, spatial uniformity was mostly measured with a radiometer and its quality was assessed with non-reference image quality metrics. Cameras are cheaper than radiometers and they can provide accurate relative measurements if they are carefully calibrated. In this pap...

In this article, we extend previous studies based on CMB spherical harmonic phases (SHP) to examine the validity of hypothesis that temperature field is consistent with a Gaussian random (GRF). The null corresponding SHP are independent and identically distributed in terms uniform distribution interval [0, 2$\pi$] \citep{1986ApJ...304...15B,2013rossmanith}. We devise new model-independent metho...

Due to inherent nature of standing wave patterns of microwaves inside a cavity and dielectric properties of different components in a food, microwave heating leaves non-uniform distribution of energy inside the food volumetrically. Achieving heating uniformity plays critical role in improving the safety of microwave heated products. In this paper, we present a method for assessing heating unifo...

Recently, the development of agricultural technology has been focused on achieving higher reliability and quality work. The aim presented paper was to examine possibilities evaluating work wide-area irrigation machinery by monitoring coefficients uniformity non-uniformity irrigation. object research pivot equipped with sprinklers a total length from 230 540 m. commonly applied parameter for wid...

Brassica chinensis varieties are mostly consumed as vegetables. In order to assess utility of microsatellite markers for testing distinctness, uniformity and stability of B. chinensis varieties, we used nine polymorphic microsatellite marker loci (with a total of 131 alleles) to evaluate four open pollinated and four hybrid varieties of B. chinensis. Each variety was represented by 48 randomly ...

Neurodegenerative diseases are often associated with loss of brain tissue volume. Our objective was to develop and evaluate a fully automated method to estimate cerebral volume from magnetic resonance images (MRI) of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). In this study, MRI data from 17 normal subjects and 68 untreated MS patients was used to test the method. Each MRI volume was corrected for i...

At present, a lot of passenger cars and light trucks are equipped with the dual mass flywheel, which can decrease non-uniformity indicated engine torque. In bench test, secondary flywheel can’t be fixed because there is no transmission system on test bench. As result, will have radial circumferential movements, may lead to damage flywheel. This paper presents an improved design crafting tool fo...

Afferent columns (>200 microm in diameter) have been intensively investigated in the context of thalamocortical and intrinsic connections. Many extrinsic cortical connections also form columnar terminations, but less is known about their fine organization. Results from intracellular injections of neighboring neurons (in rats: Johnson et al., 2000) suggest that even neurons within a common domai...
