The purpose of this investigation was to determine if phase plot normalization and phase angle definitions would have an affect on continuous relative phase calculations. A subject ran on a treadmill while sagittal plane kinematic data were collected with a high-speed (180 Hz) camera. Segmental angular displacements and velocities were used to create phase plots, and examine the coordination be...

In this paper, we show the evaluation of the spectral radius for node degree as the basis to analyze the variation in the node degrees during the evolution of scale-free networks and small-world networks. Spectral radius is the principal eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a network graph and spectral radius ratio for node degree is the ratio of the spectral radius and the average node degree...

An indicator of bypassing is a premature drop in gas-oil ratio; i.e., earlier than expected collapse of gas saturation. Early gas collapse (water fillup) may indicate that channeling has occurred. In layered reservoirs with no or little vertical crossflow, water injection in an initially depressurized layer will cause GOR to drop rapidly. Often naturally fractured reservoirs exhibit fast gas co...

In this paper, the sum capacity of the OCDMA/OCDMA (O/O) signature sequence set is investigated when the users of the two orthogonal sets are allowed to have a different average-input-energy constraint and with perfect synchronization of the users. It is found that the sum capacity is dependent on the load and the respective SNR only, but independent of the choice of the orthogonal sets. For a ...

Within the resonance chiral theory (RχT), we have studied the process of a tau lepton decaying into a vector resonance plus a pseudo-Goldstone meson and a tau neutrino. Two kinds of processes are discussed: (a) τ− → (ρπ, ωπ−, φπ,KK)ντ , belonging to ∆S = 0 processes and (b) ∆S = 1 processes, such as τ− → (ρK, ωK−, φK−,K ∗0 π−)ντ . To fit the τ − → ωπ−ντ spectral function and the decay distribut...

Mulching techniques that are adaptive and extremely successful may be able to reduce the detrimental impacts of crop production water stress on different varieties peas in a climate change scenario. Field experiment was carried out Umroi region Meghalaya during rabi season (2020–2021) for this reason. This study used split-plot design with three organic mulches as main plot treatment four pea t...

Image flux ratio anomalies have been attributed to substructures within the gravitational lens and to small mass halos (M < ∼ 10 10 M⊙) in intergalactic space. In this paper, analytic calculations are presented that help in the understanding of how intergalactic halos affect magnification ratios. It is found that intergalactic halos can produce anomalies at a similar level to those that are obs...

Tropical forests are major repositories of biodiversity, but are fast disappearing as land is converted to agriculture. Decision-makers need to know which of the remaining forests to prioritize for conservation, but the only spatial information on forest biodiversity has, until recently, come from a sparse network of ground-based plots. Here we explore whether airborne hyperspectral imagery can...

To estimate the modulating wavefront of an interferogram in Phase Shifting Interferometry (PSI) one frequently uses a Phase Shifting Algorithm (PSA). All PSAs take as input N phase-shifted interferometric measures, and give an estimation of their modulating phase. The first and best known PSA designed explicitly to reduce a systematic error source (detuning) was the 5-steps, Schwider-Hariharan ...
