Visual-vestibular and postural interactions can act as cues that trigger motion sickness and can also have a role in some anxiety disorders. We explore a method to detect individual sensitivity to visual-vestibular unusual patterns, which can signal a vulnerability to develop motion sickness and possibly anxiety disorders such as a fear of heights and panic. 65 undergraduate students were recru...

In the last few years in Malaysia, dengue fever has increased dramatically and has caused huge public health concerns. The present study aimed to establish a spatial distribution of dengue cases in the city of Kuala Lumpur using a combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatial statistical tools. Collation of data from 1,618 dengue cases in 2009 was obtained from Kuala Lumpur Cit...

The creation of a surface breaks the translational symmetry of the bulk with the electrons redistributing to lower their energy, resulting in a new lattice structure. Surface relaxation and reconstruction have been studied for years, and it is generally assumed that theory and experiment are in fairly good agreement for the ground state properties at a metal surface. There is a conceptual pictu...

Four novel oxapenem compounds (i.e., AM-112, AM-113, AM-114, and AM-115) were investigated for their beta-lactamase inhibitory activity against a panel of isolated class A, C, and D enzymes, which included expanded-spectrum beta-lactamase enzymes (ESBLs). The oxapenems were potent beta-lactamase inhibitors. Activity varied within the group, with AM-113 and AM-114 proving to be the most active c...

Different options of the structure automated process control system (APCS) are considered using example coal preparation plant with a single automation platform Omron Sysmac, as well heterogeneous devices connected by industrial networks Ethernet/IP at several levels physical separation. The general APCS is proposed. It suitable for end-to-end objects variable structure, built from various tech...

The breast can be diffusely affected by a variety of specifi c and unique disorders, including benign disorders that are closely related to physiologic changes and infl ammatory and infectious diseases, as well as by benign and malignant tumors. The clinical manifestations include unilateral or bilateral breast enlargement with/without a palpable masses, shrinkage and breast asymmetry. Thus, kn...

To show the impact of sensor behaviour on the control result, four strategies for aeration control are tested using different sensor characteristics. It is demonstrated, on the one hand, how an increasing response time will limit the achievable control quality and, on the other hand, how a given sensor characteristic can be taken into account for the controller design. The presented tests show ...
