The paper, in its first part, outlines the place of the fast neutron therapy (FNT) in the concert of radiation therapies by listing the active facilities, comparing technical and statistical data, and summarizing distinct biological properties of fast neutrons. The gross situation of Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is mentioned as well. As well as the number of patients is decreasing, FNT ...

The conventional frequency response masking (FRM) approach is one of the most well-known techniques for the design of sharp transition band finite impulse response (FIR) digital filters. The resulting FRM digital filters permit efficient hardware implementations due to an inherently large number of zero-valued multiplier coefficients. The hardware complexity of these digital filters can further...

Collateral mechanism in the Electricity Market ensures payments are executed on a timely manner; thus maintains continuous cash flow. In order to value collaterals, Takasbank, authorized central settlement bank, creates segments of market participants by considering their short-term and long-term debt/credit information arising from all activities. this study, data regarding participants’ daily...

Responsibility for flood risk management (FRM) is increasingly being devolved to a wider set of stakeholders, and effective participation by multiple FRM agencies communities at calls engagement approaches that supplement make the best possible use hydrologic hydraulic modelling. Stakeholder must strike considered balance between ideals pragmatic realities existing mechanisms decision-making. T...

Le but de cette revue littérature narrative est d’identifier à travers les logiques internes deux disciplines collectives paralympiques en fauteuil roulant manuel (FRM), l’apport et limites des principaux dispositifs accessibles aux parasportifs FRM. Dans le cadre l’optimisation performances, sont habituellement testés au laboratoire et/ou sur terrain. Au laboratoire, ergomètres manivelles (EM)...

We implement a neural model for the estimation of the focus of radial motion (FRM) at different retinal locations and assess the model by comparing its results with respect to the precision with which human observers can estimate the FRM in naturalistic motion stimuli. The model describes the deep hierarchy of the first stages of the dorsal visual pathway and is space variant, since it takes in...

[Purpose] The purposes of this study were to investigate the influences of position on %MVIC of spinal stability muscles to establish for the most effective breathing pattern for activation of spinal stability muscles in order to provide an additional treatment method for use in spinal stability exercise programs. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty-three healthy subjects performed quiet breathing an...

The frequency-response masking (FRM) approach was introduced as a means of generating narrow transition band linear-phase FIR filters with a low arithmetic complexity. This paper proposes an approach for synthesizing modulated maximally decimated FIR filter banks utilizing the FRM technique. For this purpose, a new class of FRM filters is introduced. Filters belonging to this class are used for...
