Femtosecond and nanosecond laser flash photolysis was used to determine the photophysical and photochemical processes in aqueous solutions of Fe(III) ion and 5-sulfosalicylic acid (SSA) containing the FeSSA complex and the free ligand. Excitation of the FeSSA complex in the charge transfer band (λmax = 505 nm) is followed by an ultrafast relaxation to the ground electronic state with two charac...

Menopause is a universal experience for women that occur, in around 50 years old. In this periods women encounter with many changes in their life. Retirement and children leaving home can cause the loneliness and depression, however this time is an opportunity for women to changing their life. The women perception of menopause depends on their social, cultural, economical status and life style ...

Measurements of thermal conductivity with the heat flow meter, laser flash method, hot disk method and wire are compared on two kinds refractory materials: Insulating Boards Fireclay Bricks. Heat losses, humidity, anisotropy heterogeneity can explain variation in values obtained different techniques. If they taken into account analysis, discrepancy within 10% be found. The choice technique depe...

Bayesian inference is an important technique throughout statistics. The essence of Beyesian inference is to derive the posterior belief updated from prior belief by the learned information, which is a set of differentially private answers under differential privacy. Although Bayesian inference can be used in a variety of applications, it becomes theoretically hard to solve when the number of di...

3D-NAND flash memory provides high capacity per unit area by stacking 2D-NAND cells having a planar structure. However, because of the nature lamination process, frequency error occurrence varies depending on each layer or physical cell location. This phenomenon becomes more pronounced as number write/erase (Program/Erasure) operations increases. Error correction code (ECC) is used for in major...

This paper is a continuation of our previous work [1] in which we proposed an approach where two environments, conventional and virtual, are used independently in the forensic analysis of computer systems. We discuss the use of virtual environments in the analysis of USB flash drives in computer forensics investigations. After briefly introducing general concepts of a virtual environment and so...

This paper focuses on human behavior in web surfing during the special stage called Flash Crowd (FC) period. Some statistical properties of human behavior are investigated. A moving approximate entropy (ApEn)method is provided to precisely locate the FC stage at first. Then the multiscale entropy (MSE) method is applied to study the difference of behaviors between the FC stage and the Normal st...

OBJECTIVE Sleep disturbance and hot flashes are common during menopause, but their association is not well understood. We sought to understand the associations among sleep disturbance and the frequency, bothersomeness, and interference of hot flashes in mid-life women. STUDY DESIGN STRIDE is a study of women ages 40-65 years at varied menopausal stages. We examined the cross-sectional associa...

New technologies promise reduced flash flood losses. However, real-time observations with vast multi-sensor networks, more precise mapping capabilities using remote sensing and GIS, quicker hydrological and meteorological models, and increasing forecast lead times have not reduced losses. In November, 1999, 35 researchers from nine countries met in Ravello, Italy at a NATO sponsored Advanced St...
