<span>This paper analyzes the performance of a pico hydropower plant consisting an axial hydro turbine integrated with permanent magnet generator (PMG) and connected to power converter. The proposed system is aimed obtain wide operation range gain more captured while maintaining time-harmonic distortion in voltage (THDv) that meets standard. PMG specification 1 kW, phase, 235 V, 50 Hz, 83...

Diverse authoring approaches and tools have been designed to assist the creation of units of learning compliant to current learning technology specifications. Although visual and pattern-based editors of Learning Designs (LD) can help to abstract the learning designer from the details of the specifications, they are still far from a high-level, integrated authoring environment. This paper analy...

Background and Objectives Relatively little research investigated whether experiences during young adulthood have long-lasting consequences for older age loneliness. This article examines whether deviations from culturally based scripts regarding family transitions represent risk factors for later-life loneliness. Moreover, it analyzes whether and in which conditions long-term associations betw...

Adaptive hypermedia is an alternative to the traditional “one-size-fits-all” approach in the development of hypermedia systems. Adaptive hypermedia (AH) systems build a model of the goals, preferences, and knowledge of each individual user, and use this model throughout the interaction with the user, in order to adapt to the needs of that user. Adaptive navigation support is a specific group of...

Manual curation of biomedical literature has become extremely tedious process due to its exponential growth in recent years. To extract meaningful information from such large and unstructured text, newer and more efficient mining tool is required. Here, we introduce PALM-IST, a computational platform that not only allows users to explore biomedical abstracts using keyword based text mining but ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Diffusion tensor metrics are potential in vivo quantitative neuroimaging biomarkers for the characterization of brain tumor subtype. This meta-analysis analyzes the ability of mean diffusivity and fractional anisotropy to distinguish low-grade from high-grade gliomas in the identifiable tumor core and the region of peripheral edema. MATERIALS AND METHODS A meta-analysis...
