The augmented predecessor Indexing method is a procedure for efficiently updating the basis representation, flows and node potentials in an adjacent extreme point (or "simplex" type) method for network problems, utilizing ideas due to Ellis Johnson in his proposed application of a triple-label representation to networks. The procedure is extended here to accommodate the more complex basis struc...

In this paper, triple band rectangular microstrip antenna with two vertical rhombus shaped slot (TBRMA2VRS) is designed and developed for S and C band frequency applications. The triple bands are obtained by etching two rhombus slots on the patch surface. The impedance bandwidth of secondary band is enhanced from 2.06% to8.54% by replacing the two rhombus slots. The radiation patterns measured ...

PURPOSE Postoperative release of scleral flap closure suture is useful in trabeculectomy combined with cataract surgery. We determined risk factors for early filtration failure requiring suture release during the first month after primary glaucoma triple procedure. METHODS The medical records of 71 consecutive patients with primary open-angle glaucoma who underwent a primary glaucoma triple p...

Single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAS) data can in principle be phased by direct methods since a priori estimates of the three-phase structure invariants can be computed from these data. The mean phase error of the most reliable triple estimates for a small protein, however, is typically no better than 60 degrees, and does not bode well for applications to larger structures. A procedure i...

As a generalization of the triple I method, the universal triple Imethod is investigated from the viewpoints of both fuzzy reasoningand fuzzy controller. The universal triple I principle is putforward, which improves the previous triple I principle. Then,unified form of universal triple I method is established based onthe (0,1)-implication or R-implication. Moreover, the reversibilityproperty o...

Two new triple band small size composite-resonator microstrip antenna configurations for wireless communications are presented in this paper. The proposed antennas, each is built of three resonant elements. Two types of compact short-circuited resonators are used; stepped impedance and quarter-wave resonators. The design procedure based on composing the antenna resonators is straightforward and...

A standard lyophilised triple cryoprecipitate preparation, stabilised by the addition of Synthamin 17, was heat treated at 60 degrees C for 48 hours. The total protein content, factor VIII concentration, and factor VIII recovery were not affected by the heat treatment procedure. Heat treatment did not influence the reconstitution characteristics of the freeze dried preparation and there were no...

We retrospectively evaluated 38 patients who had a total of 52 triple arthrodeses. The average age at the time of operation was 14.2 years and the mean followup period was 10.2 years. Results were rated good in 17 feet, fair in 28 and poor in 7. Talonavicular pseudarthrosis was observed in two feet, residual varus deformity in four, residual valgus deformity in one, wound infections in two, and...

We consider Presburger arithmetic (PA) extended with modulo counting quantifiers. We show that its complexity is essentially the same as that of PA, i.e., we give a doubly exponential space bound. This is done by giving and analysing a quantifier elimination procedure similar to Reddy and Loveland’s procedure for PA. We also show that the complexity of the automata-based decision procedure for ...
