investigations are carried out to evaluate the performance of a low heat rejection (lhr) diesel engine consisting of air gap insulated piston with 3-mm air gap, with superni (an alloy of nickel) crown and air gap insulated liner with superni insert with different operating conditions of crude jatropha oil with varied injection timing and injection pressure.  performance parameters of brake ther...

‎‎‎in this paper‎, ‎we develop multi-step methods to solve a class of two-dimensional nonlinear volterra integral equations (2d-nvies) of the first kind‎. ‎here‎, ‎we convert a 2d-nvie of the first kind to a one-dimensional linear vie of the first kind and then we solve the resulted equation numerically by multi-step methods‎. ‎we also verify convergence and error analysis of the method‎. ‎at t...

patients and methods in 382 subjects admitted in the emergency department (ed), we evaluated maximal (volmax) and minimal (volmin) la volumes and la emptying fraction (la-ef), from rt-3d images, with a semiautomated border detection program. a follow-up was performed in order to evaluate all-cause mortality and new hospital admission for cardiovascular events. objectives aims of this study were...

Abstract Seismic interferometry (SI) can be used to reconstruct a pseudo-acquisition from response of passive source, while the reconstructed data recover portion model space that is different recovered by inversion original measurements. The SI crosscorrelation requiring seismic wave field evenly distributed, which limits scope application this method. multi-dimensional deconvolution (MDD) bro...

We present a multidimensional acoustic report describing variation in speech productions on data collected from 500 francophone adult speakers (20 to 93 y.o.a.) as function of age. In this cross-sectional study, chronological age is considered continuous variable while oral productions, reading and speech-like tasks, are characterized via 22 descriptors related voice quality, pitch, vowel artic...
