A fully polarimetric compact radar range operating at a center frequency of 100 GHz has been developed for obtaining radar cross section, inverse synthetic aperture radar imagery and high range resolution profiles on targets and structures of interest. The 100 GHz radar range provides scale-model RCS measurements for a variety of convenient scale factors including W-Band (1:1 scale), C-band (1:...

Abstract This article reassesses the social significance of Early Neolithic chambered tombs. It critically evaluates inferences about organization drawn from tomb architecture and interpretations kinship based on aDNA analyses human remains Adopting perspective that is a multifaceted ongoing field practice, it argues arrangement chambers was related to negotiation kinship. Drawing together biol...

We present a polynomiality property of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients c λμ . The coefficients are shown to be given by polynomials in λ, μ and ν on the cones of the chamber complex of a vector partition function. We give bounds on the degree of the polynomials depending on the maximum allowed number of parts of the partitions λ, μ and ν. We first express the Littlewood-Richardson coeffi...

Refer to Figure 1. A monotone matching is a set of n segments, each the portion of a unique pseudoline, and each spanning a unique slab, such that the left endpoint of each segment is above the right endpoint of the segment in the previous slab. In addition, the point on the first vertical line is below the left endpoint of the first segment, and the point on the last vertical line is above the...

This work introduces a new non-isolated buck-boost DC-DC converter. Interleaved configuration of the suggested structure increases the voltage conversion ratio. The voltage rate of the suggested converter can be stepped-up and stepped down for lower values of duty-cycle, which causes to decrease in the conduction losses of the system. The voltage conversion ratio of the recommended structure is...

This study presents the boost converter-based cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel inverter with improved reliability for solar PV (photovoltaic) applications. The is associated converter to enhance DC link voltage by using maximum power point tracking-perturb and observe (MPPT-P & O) technique. proposed configuration aimed toward performance analysis of CHB MLI reducing number components, lo...

This thesis explores two specific topics of discrete geometry, the multitriangulations and the polytopal realizations of products, whose connection is the problem of finding polytopal realizations of a given combinatorial structure. A k-triangulation is a maximal set of chords of the convex n-gon such that no k+1 of them mutually cross. We propose a combinatorial and geometric study of multitri...

The SPARC-EBIT (fig.1) is an Electron Beam Ion Trap (from DREEBIT, Dresden) that will be used for tests and offline measurements, firstly for HITRAP, and later for SPARC (Stored Particle Atomic physics Research Collaboration). In the EBIT the ions are produced by electron impact ionisation of gas atoms by an intense electron beam. The magnetic field of a permanent magnet arrangement focuses the...

Introduction: Well type ionization chamber is a measuring device which is used to determine the activity of brachytherapy sources. The chamber has a cylindrical volume in which a cylindrical tube is mounted in the middle of the chamber. For the measurements, the brachytherapy sources are transferred to the middle of the tube. Materials and Methods: For designing the well type chamber, the measu...
