We say that a hypergraph H is hamiltonian path (cycle) saturated if H does not contain an open (closed) hamiltonian chain but by adding any new edge we create an open (closed) hamiltonian chain in H. In this paper we ask about the smallest size of an r-uniform hamiltonian path (cycle) saturated hypergraph, mainly for r = 3. We present a construction of a family of 3-uniform path (cycle) saturat...

We call a graph H Ramsey-unsaturated if there is an edge in the complement of H such that the Ramsey number r(H) of H does not change upon adding it to H. This notion was introduced by Balister, Lehel and Schelp in [2], where it is shown that cycles (except for C4) are Ramsey-unsaturated, and conjectured that, moreover, one may add any chord without changing the Ramsey number of the cycle Cn, u...

in this paper, a new combined power and refrigeration cycle is proposed, which combines the rankin power cycle and the ejector refrigeration cycle. this combined cycle produces both power output and refrigeration output simultaneously. this cycle is driven by the flue gas of gas turbines, industrial waste heats, solar energy and geothermal energy. an exergy analysis is performed to guide the th...

Let α(G) denote the independence number of a graph G and let G ×H be the direct product of graphs G and H. Set α(G ×H) = max{α(G) · |H|, α(H) · |G|}. If G is a path or a cycle and H is a path or a cycle then α(G×H) = α(G×H). Moreover, this equality holds also in the case when G is a bipartite graph with a perfect matching and H is a traceable graph. However, for any graph G with at least one ed...

in this paper, a recurrent fuzzy-neural network (rfnn) controller with neural network identifier in direct control model is designed to control the speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. since the turbine operation in combined cycle unit is considered, speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine should be simultaneously controlled by fuel command ...

Cell cycle progression of G2 fractions (75-80% G2 (4C) cells) from 8 h anaerobically cultured asynchronous hyperdiploid Ehrlich ascites tumor cells strain Karzel, separated by centrifugal elutriation, was studied after reaeration by flow cytometric methods, including the BrdU-H33258 technique and dual parameter measurements. Analyses of the growth kinetics demonstrated that one fraction of the ...

In teleosts, the proliferation of myogenic progenitor cells is required for muscle growth and nuclear turnover. We measured the cell cycle and S-phase duration of myogenic cells in the fast myotomal muscle of two closely related Harpagifer species by cumulative S-phase labelling with 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU). Harpagifer antarcticus is a stenothermal species from the Antarctic peninsula (e...

BACKGROUND Elevated early follicular phase (EFP) FSH is frequently observed in subfertile patients. In these women, temporary normalization of FSH concentrations is known to occur. We studied the complete endocrine cycle profile of subfertile young women with elevated basal FSH compared with controls. METHODS Daily bloodsampling and ultrasound monitoring in the follicular phase was performed in...

background: we often see patients with a thin endometrium in art cycles, in spite of standard and adjuvant treatments. improving endometrial growth in patients with a thin endometrium is very difficult. without adequate endometrial thickness these patients, likely, would not have reached embryo transfer. objective: we planned this study to investigate the efficacy of intrauterine granulocyte co...
