[Purpose] The aim of this study was to determine the relationships among the foot progression angle, foot rotation angle, lower limb alignment, and knee adduction moments in patients with degenerative knee osteoarthritis (OA). [Subjects] Forty-eight patients diagnosed with degenerative knee OA (Kellgren-Lawrence grades 2 and 3) were included. [Methods] To assess the lower extremity alignment an...

AbstractPerformance of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems using Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) are analyzed in this paper. The performance of DWT-OFDM is assessed by various parameters such as BER, eye diagram and constellation diagram. BER is the ratio of the no. of bits with error to the total no. of bits transmitted through the chann...

This paper proposed a method that combines Polar Fourier Transform, color moments, and vein features to retrieve leaf images based on a leaf image. The method is very useful to help people in recognizing foliage plants. Foliage plants are plants that have various colors and unique patterns in the leaf. Therefore, the colors and its patterns are information that should be counted on in the proce...

The phase diagram of a model describing doped CuGeO3 is derived. The model emphasizes the role of local moments released by the impurities and randomly distributed inside the gaped singlet background. The phase diagram is investigated by two methods: (i) in a mean field treatment of the interchain coupling and (ii) in a real space decimation procedure in a two dimensional model of randomly dist...

The science of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is very similar in concept to the more familiar nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique. Both deal with the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and magnetic moments; in the case of EPR, the magnetic moments arise from electrons rather than nuclei. Whether or not the reader has an immediate interest in the multitude o...

The higher-order linear moments (LH-moments) method is one of the most commonly used methods for estimating parameters probability distributions in flood frequency analysis without sample censoring. This article presents relationships necessary to estimate eight analysis. Eight three using first- and second-order LH-moments are presented, namely Pearson V distribution, CHI inverse Wilson–Hilfer...

Abstract. The experimental data on F2 structure functions of the proton and deuteron were used to construct their moments. In particular, recent measurements performed with CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab allowed to extend our knowledge of structure functions in the large-x region. The phenomenological analysis of these experimental moments in terms of the Operator Product Expansion permitted to...
