Abstract

In this work we will combine two important notions for the argumentation community into Abstract Argumentation Frameworks (AFs). These notions correspond to Toulmin’s backings and Pollock’s undercutting defeaters. We will define Backing-Undercutting Argumentation Frameworks (BUAFs), an extension of AFs that includes a specialized support relation, a distinction between different attack types, a...

An experiment to assess psychomotor performance before and after forward-facing (-Gx) impact was conducted using the AFAMRL Horizontal Decelerator Facility. There were 10 volunteer subjects who participated in 50 tests at 4 impact levels (0 G or sham, 8 G, 10 G, and 12 G). Two initial head positions were explored at the highest impact level. The manikin psychomotor task, a complex reaction time...

in this research, the coupling between non-gray radiation and separation convection flow in a duct is investigated numerically. distributions of absorption coefficients across the spectrum  are obtained from the hitran2008 database. the full-spectrum k-distribution method is used to deal with the non-gray part of the problem, while the gray radiation calculations are performed using the planck ...

Nos gustaría comenzar esta nueva etapa agradeciendo a Elsevier y al anterior equipo editorial su esfuerzo, su constancia y su contribución al desarrollo de la Enfermería desde que comenzaron su andadura en el año 2004. Sin duda, Enfermería Clínica ha brindando a los enfermeros y enfermeras la posibilidad de colaborar en un objetivo común: el avance de la profesión para poder ofrecer nuestra mej...

A standard approach to generating a grayscale equivalent to an input multi-spectral image involves calculating the so-called structure tensor at each image pixel. Defining contrast as associated with the maximum-change direction of this matrix, the gray gradient is identified with the first eigenvector direction, with gradient strength given by the square root of its eigenvalue. However, aside ...
