Arterial-branch intersections are important components of urban road network but greatly ignored its role in maintaining an efficient traffic operation regional networks. generally featured with significant fluctuations the flow ratio branch to arterial road. So, order adapt signal timing this kind intersection, optimization control algorithm based on fuzzy and nonlinear programming (FCNP) was ...

Automation of paddy straw bale combustor technology was achieved by designing a microcontroller based logic control system for controlling feeding, ensuring complete combustion and cleaning the grate removing bottom ash. The generates flue gas at 350 °C to maintain greenhouse air temperature 10 higher (for 24 h continuous operation) than ambient during winter months Ludhiana climate (30.56 °N),...

Connected vehicle (CV) technology is expected to bring additional opportunities share, collect, and exploit various information on vehicles their occupants. Assuming that CVs are able transmit on-board users data, a user-based signal timing optimisation (UBSTO) strategy proposed, designed optimise user throughput for signalised intersections. In the CV environment, inputs of proposed algorithm ...

background: over the past several years, mammals have been successfully cloned by either the splitting of an early stage embryo or nuclear transfer of adult somatic cells (nt) into oocytes. although it has been 15 years since the generation of the first cloned mammals from somatic cells by nt, the success rate for producing live offspring by this technique is low regardless of the cell type and...

Introduction: The neural substrates of temporal processing are not still fully known. The majority of interval timing studies have dealt with this subject in the context of “Explicit timing” (computing the time intervals explicitly). The hypothesis “Implicit timing” (implicitly using temporal processing to improve function) has also proposed. This lesion study addressed explicit and implicit ti...

We present here a pattern sensitive PowerPoint presentation scheme. The presentation is actuated by simple patterns drawn on the presentation screen by a laser pointer. A specific pattern corresponds to a particular command required to operate the presentation. Laser spot on the screen is captured by a RGB webcam with a red filter mounted, and its location is identified at the blue layer of eac...

A light-actuated microfluidic device has been successfully fabricated to inject, move, separate, and merge liquid droplets with nano-liter volumes. Light actuation is realized by sandwiching the liquid droplets between two photosensitive surfaces whose wettability can he changed by light. By integrating a photoconductor with an electrowetting electrode, the surface tension at the liquidsolid in...

The more things change, the more they stay the same. This old French saying seems to apply rather aptly to the situation faced by respiratory clinicians using inhaled therapy for their patients with obstructive lung disease. Since the development of the pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) in 1956, inhaled medication has become the standard of care for both asthma and chronic obstructive pul...
