In this paper, we mainly investigate the sensing performance of a fabricable 6-fold D-shaped photonic crystal fibre sensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Its couplings between fundamental core mode and three plasmonic modes which have different electric filed distributions for analytes various refractive indices been studied in detail. We firstly observe two types SPRs, namely, `diel...

Objective: This study aimed to determine if there was a significant difference in root canal obturation quality between single-rooted teeth produced using manual approach and those prepared rotational method, as determined by intraoral periapical radiographs. Study Design: Randomized control trial Place Duration: randomized conducted at Bakhtawaramin Medical Dental College during the period fro...

There is no doubt that the systems’ integration is one of the most important and complicated tasks in software filed especially for complex applications like banking systems. Complexity in integrating banking systems often comes from continues changes in both technical and business features provided by them to meet customer needs. Banking systems always come from different software vendors whic...

In a previous study [5] we investigate the bound states of the Hamiltonian describing a quantum particle living on three dimensional straight strip of width d. We impose the Neumann boundary condition on a disc window of radius a and Dirichlet boundary conditions on the remained part of the boundary of the strip. We proved that such system exhibits discrete eigenvalues below the essential spect...

W investigate the impact of rivals’ product innovation and new advertising on a firm’s financial market value in mature product markets. Our test bed is the carbonated soft drink market between 1999 and 2003, a period characterized by a near duopoly between Coca-Cola and Pespi. Empirically, we focus on new product announcements as a proxy of product innovation and on filed trademarks as a measu...

This essay--prompted by my work directing Georgetown Law's Appellate Courts Immersion Clinic--discusses letters filed under Federal Rule of Procedure 28(j). A 28(j) letter is the federal appellate rules' principal mechanism for bringing supplemental authorities to an court’s attention after briefs have been filed. essay covers (1) Rule's basic attributes; (2) whether a may be adversarial; (3) t...

It is important to measure the burden surface temperature of blast furnace (BF) since it can indicate the gas flow distribution and provide instruction for BF operation. The measuring system configuration based on multi-source information fusion is given in this paper to solve the problem of temperature filed measuring in BF. As a result, the multi-source information feature extraction and fusi...
