in this paper, first the available single charting methods, which have been proposed to detect simultaneous shifts in a single process mean and variance, are reviewed. then, by designing proper simulation studies these methods are evaluated in terms of in-control and out-ofcontrol average run length criteria (arl). the results of these simulation experiments show that the ewma and ewms methods ...

the toxicity of thiamethoxam and pirimicarb on diaeretiella rapae (mc'intosh) as a parasitoid of lipaphis erysimi (kaltenbach), exposed to residues on glass vials, was investigated under laboratory conditions at 23 ± 2 °c, 70 ± 5% rh and 16:8 h (l: d). moreover, in order to find the negative impacts of both insecticides on the efficiency of d. rapae, the functional response of the exposed paras...

in this paper, zno thin film is deposited on slide glass substrate using the sol-gel process. presenting well-defined orientation of zno thin films nanostructure were obtained by dip coating of zinc acetate dihydrate, monoethanolamine (mea), de-ionized water and isopropanol alcohol. the annealed zno thin films were transparent ca 85-90% in visible range with an absorption edges at about 375 nm....

Control actuators' faults are among the major reasons to lose aircraft control while flights. The plane dynamics is severely dependent upon faults and errors in flight control systems and if the reformed control order is not issued by the fault tolerant controller there would be unpleasant outcomes such as inconsistency and the reduction of system performance and some dreadful aerial accide...

an adaptive version of growing and pruning rbf neural network has been used to predict the system output and implement linear model-based predictive controller (lmpc) and non-linear model-based predictive controller (nmpc) strategies. a radial-basis neural network with growing and pruning capabilities is introduced to carry out on-line model identification.an unscented kalman filter (ukf) algor...

  Abstract Critical Discourse Analysis as an interdisciplinary approach aims at making transparent the connections between discourse practices and social practices and provides ways of looking into translations from a critical standpoint.Farahzad is among the scholars who presented her specific CDA model inspired by Fairclough’s approach. The present Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA)-based s...

Multiple and complex functionalities are a demand nowadays for almost all materials, including common day-to-day materials such as paper, textiles, wood, etc. In the present report, the surface temperature control of different types of materials, including paper and textiles, was demonstrated by Joule heating of metallic-web transparent electrodes both by direct current and by RF induced eddy c...

This paper describes a novel approach of controlling cell-surface interactions through an electrochemical "switching" of biointerfacial properties of optically transparent microelectrodes. The indium tin oxide (ITO) microelectrodes, fabricated on glass substrates, were modified with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) silane to make glass and ITO regions resistant to protein and cell adhesion. Cyclic v...
