We modified the Press-Schechter (PS) formalism and then analytically derived a constrained mass distribution function n(M |φ) for the regions having some specified value of the primordial gravitational potential, φ. The resulting modified PS theory predicts that gravitationally bound clumps with masses corresponding to rich clusters are significantly biased toward the regions of negative primor...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy is a noninvasive method that enables measurement of brain metabolite concentrations, it has been shown that physiologic brain motion causes inaccuracies in measurement of metabolite concentrations and increases the overall SD of the measurements when the stimulated echo acquisition mode (STEAM) is used. We tested the hypothesis...

Small cracks or chips of a product appear very frequently in the course of continuous production of an automatic press process system. These phenomena become the cause of not only defective product but also damage of a press mold. In order to solve this problem AE system was introduced. AE system was expected to be very effective to real time detection of the defective product and to prevention...

Please cite this article in press as: C. Tran et a (2011), doi:10.1016/j.cviu.2011.09.008 Understanding driver behavior is an essential component in human-centric Intelligent Driver Assistance Systems. Specifically, driver foot behavior is an important factor in controlling the vehicle, though there have been very few research studies on analyzing foot behavior. While embedded pedal sensors may...

Three experiments tested whether a modified version of the Clustered Conceptual Span task (H. J. Haarmann, E. J. Davelaar, & M. Usher, 2003), which ostensibly requires active maintenance of semantic representations, predicted individual differences in higher-order cognitive abilities better than short-term memory (STM) span tasks or non-semantic versions of the “Conceptual” task did. Non-semant...

This is a report summarising results from studies of true subglottal pressure, supraglottal pressure and speech wave data. We have derived co-variation patterns, which allow a prediction of intensity from subglottal pressure and F0, and conversely a prediction of a subglottal pressure contour from F0 and intensity. Of special interest is the significance of a mid-point in a speakers’ available ...
