Suppose that N inputs to a linear, time-invariant channel are designed to maximize the minimum L , distance between channel outputs. It is assumed that all inputs are zero outside the finite time window [ T , TI and are constrained in energy. The jointly optimal inputs and channel frequency response H(f) for which the minimum distance is maximized is studied, subject to the constraint that the ...

The PN Kammalia-Tarawa in an Old Assyrian tablet seems to be the earliest reference of deity Darawa. Luwian background this is also apparent, e.g., from plural form DDa-ra-ú-wa-an-zi or those texts mentioned CTH 457 and etymological interpretation divine name verb tarāwi(ya)-. Since early Middle Hittite period Darawa found her way into Hattian milieu as a goddess connected with family life, she...

Various functions of human phagocytes are modulated by exposing intact cells to calcium ionophore using the cGMP reporter cell assay (P ! .0001). After differentiation with nitric oxide (NO). We transfected the human U937 monoblastoid cell line with an expression vector containing human phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), iNOS transfectants produced more tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) (124....

II. Relaxation Time and the Deborah Number NB In what follows we use viscometric information from Note I ( Fluid Rheology). To determine the Deborah number for the axisymmetric contraction-expansion we need to select both a characteristic timescale for the flow and a representative measure of the spectrum of relaxation times of the fluid. A characteristic strain rate based on the local flow con...
