background imaging plays a critical role not only in the detection, but also in the characterization of lung masses as benign or malignant. objectives to determine the diagnostic accuracy of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (mri) in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant lung masses. patients and methods ninety-four masses were included in this prospective study. five dynamic seri...

Perception of relative phase and phase variability may play a fundamental role in interlimb coordination. This study was designed to investigate the perception of relative phase and of phase variability and the stability of perception in each case. Observers judged the relative phasing of two circles rhythmically moving on a computer display. The circles moved from side to side, simulating move...

in this paper, a non-isothermal two-phase flow in the cathode gas diffusion layer (gdl) of pem fuel cell is modeled. the governing equations including energy, mass and momentum conservation equations are solved by numerical methods. also, the optimal values of the effective parameters such as the electrodes porosity, gas diffusion layer (gdl) thickness and inlet relative humidity are calculated...

In this paper we numerically investigate the effect of relative phase on thestability of temporal bright solitons in a Nano PT- Symmetric nonlinear directionalcoupler (NLDC) by considering gain in bar and loss in cross. We also study the effect ofrelative phase on the output perturbed bright solitons energies, in the range of   0 to 180 . By using perturbation theory three eigenfunctions an...

Background. There is sparse literature examining the ICB phase of aerobic- and anaerobic-trained athletes. Measurements of ICB phase values of athletes can help to evaluate the sport’s physiological demands and understand the physiological adaptations in response to physical training. Objectives. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the isocapnic buffering (IC...

When two independently-prepared Bose-Einstein condensates are released from their corresponding traps, the absorbtion image of the overlapping clouds presents an interference pattern. Here we analyze a model introduced by Javanainen and Yoo [1], who considered two atomic condensates described by plane waves propagating in opposite directions. We present an analytical argument for the measuremen...

Quantum operations represented by completely positive maps encompass many of the physical processes and have been very powerful in describing quantum computation and information processing tasks. We introduce the notion of relative phase change for a quantum system undergoing quantum operation. We find that the relative phase shift of a system not only depends on the state of the system, but al...

A high performance liquid chromatography method was studied for determination of 18 ?-glycyrrhetinic acid in Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (licorice) extract. The operating condition were C-18 reversed phase column (VP-ODS, (250×4.6 mm, 5 mm)) at room temperature, acetonitril/phosphoric acid (3/1) as mobile phase, at flow rate of 0.6ml/min (0-8min), 0.4ml/min (8-20min) and UV detection at 230 nm. The...
