We studied the orientational order of one-patch colloidal particles (Janus particles) in a close-packed monolayer. In an experiment on hemispherically patched particles, we realized a highly ordered zigzag stripe pattern by inducing directional growth of the pattern via a phase transition of the solvent. Upon spontaneous ordering by strengthening the inter-patch attraction, however, the particl...

This paper describes the performance analysis of different feeding technique for wireless microstrip patch antenna i.e for wi-max applications. In this paper four types of feeding techniques (Microstrip line feed, coaxial probe feed, proximity coupled feed and aperture coupled feed) are used. From the four feeding techniques, microstrip line and coaxial probe feeds are contacting scheme, in whi...

Predictions about information search behavior have been informed by extensive research in food foraging behavior. However, information foraging environments may differ in key ways from food foraging environments, and these differences may impact search behavior. We investigated the effect of patch distribution (depleting or non-depleting) and ability to return to previously searched patches on ...

Background Tulobuterol patch, one of strongest bronchodilators, was recently shown to improve bronchial hyperresponsiveness and significantly decrease the sputum eosinophil counts by combining with nonspecific anti-inflammatory drugs on patients with asthma. However, there is limited study on the anti-inflammatory activities of tulobuterol patch and its potential machenism. Results The tulobu...

OBJECTIVE The effect of transdermal nicotine patch on sleep physiology is not well established. The current study aimed to examine the influence of nicotine patch on homeostatic sleep propensity and autonomic nervous system. METHODS We studied 16 non-smoking young healthy volunteers with nocturnal polysomnography in a double blind crossover design between sleep with and without nicotine patch...

In order to investigate how the movement of dogs affects the geographically inter-provincial spread of rabies in Mainland China, we propose a multi-patch model to describe the transmission dynamics of rabies between dogs and humans, in which each province is regarded as a patch. In each patch the submodel consists of susceptible, exposed, infectious, and vaccinated subpopulations of both dogs a...

In this paper, hybrid modeling of Micro-strip antenna is presented. Broadband frequency of operation demonstrated by single geometry .for broadening the bandwidth and maximum directional gain (6.6dBi 8dBi) gap-coupled multi-resonator loaded on parasitic and active patch. The geometry of a single probe fed rectangular Micro-strip antenna incorporating a slot and gap coupled with parasitic and ac...

JSON Patch defines a JSON document structure for expressing a sequence of operations to apply to a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) document; it is suitable for use with the HTTP PATCH method. The "application/json-patch+json" media type is used to identify such patch documents. Information about the current status of this document, any errata, and how to provide feedback on it may be obtained...

A current, popular, theory of spatial localization holds that the visual system represents the location of simple objects by a single positional tag, the accuracy of which is largely independent of the internal properties of the object. We have already presented evidence of the limitations of such a view (Keeble & Hess (1998). Vision Research, 38, 827-840) in that 3-micropattern alignment perfo...
