Abstract In this letter, we exploit the Damour-Deruelle solution to derive analytical expression of coordinate time in terms polar angle. This formula has advantageous applications both pulsar timing and gravitational-wave theory.

The Strong Equivalence Principle (SEP) demands, besides the validity of the Einstein Equivalence Principle, that all self-gravitating bodies feel the same acceleration in an external gravitational field. It has been found that metric theories of gravity other that than general relativity typically predict a violation of the SEP. In case of the Earth-Moon system (weak field system) this violatio...

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has an important role in musculoskeletal surgery; however, it has been underutilized for accelerating the healing of abdominal wall defects in veterinary practice. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the use of commercial polyester/cotton fabric (Damour) as a new composite mesh for the repair of experimentally induced abdominal wall defects in canine mode...

This study investigates the feasibility of management of aquifer recharge (MAR) in Lebanon by designing well barriers to remove seawater intrusion from the fractured carbonate aquifers. Groundwater flow and saltwater/freshwater 50% sharp interface have been modeled along the coastal area using the Ghyben-Herzberg theory. The groundwater flow simulations have been supported by field transmissivi...

A time-stamp system allows to maintain in a distributed way a total order among a set of objects by assigning them some labels or time-stamps. An elementary operation consists in moving one of these objects from the ith position to the rst one by only modifying its time-stamp. We introduce the notion of interpolation system, which generalizes the previous notion by allowing the objects to move ...

Cet article présente la réalisation d’un Objet Connecté Personnel (ObCP) dans le cadre d’une formation ingénieur consacrée à conception et d’objets connectés. Les étudiants réalisent leur ObCP en début de formation, l’utilisent pour réaliser projet d’option conservent l’issue formation. L’ObCP est une carte basée sur un microcontrôleur STM32F411RE connecteur additionnelle compatible arduino.

When considering the wide range of object-oriented programming languages, one hardly ever finds methods to be first-class entities. At first sight, this phenomenon seems to be caused by a concern for an efficient implementation. Closer inspection however, reveals more subtle grounds that are rooted in issues more fundamental than performance. This paper investigates this aspect of object-orient...
