When presented with temporally displaced audiovisual events, observers shift their point of subjective simultaneity (PSS) in the direction of this prior lag. This effect, known as temporal recalibration (TR), has been inferred previously using single audiovisual events. Here we investigate TR using an audiovisual synchrony search paradigm employing spatiotemporally cluttered visual displays. By...

Casting is considered as a major manufacturing process. Thermal analysis of a solidifying medium is of great importance for appropriate design of casting processes. The conventional governing equation of a solidifying medium is based on the Fourier heat conduction law, which does not account for the phase-lag between the heat flux and the temperature gradient. In this paper, the concept of phas...

the aim of this paper is to minimize output phase noise for the pure signal synthesis in the frequency synthesizers. for this purpose, first, an exact mathematical model of phase locked loop (pll) based frequency synthesizer is described and analyzed. then, an exact closed-form formula in terms of synthesizer bandwidth and total output phase noise is extracted. based on this formula, the phase ...

CHRISTENSEN, JAMES, AND RICHARD L. HAUSER. Circumferential coupling of electric slow waves in circular muscle of cat’ colon. Am. J. Physiol. 221(4): 1033-1037. 1971 .-The cat colon, opened along the antimesenteric border, was spread, serosa down, in a bath of Krebs solution. Six volume-recording electrodes, 5.8 mm apart, were placed on the circular muscle layer exposed by removal of the mucosa ...

this paper proposes a flexible power electronic transformer (fpet) for the application in the micro-grids. the low frequency transformer is usually used at the point of common coupling (pcc) to connect the low voltage grid and utility network to each other. the conventional 50hz transformer results in enhanced low voltage-grid power management system during grid-connected operation. in this pap...

Food microbiologists generally use continuous sigmoidal functions such as the empirical Gompertz equation to obtain the kinetic parameters specific growth rate (mu) and lag phase duration (lambda) from bacterial growth curves. This approach yields reliable information on mu; however, values for lambda are difficult to determine accurately due, in part, to our poor understanding of the physiolog...
