In this paper we construct Galois towers with good asymptotic properties over any nonprime finite field F`; i.e., we construct sequences of function fields N = (N1 ⊂ N2 ⊂ · · · ) over F` of increasing genus, such that all the extensions Ni/N1 are Galois extensions and the number of rational places of these function fields grows linearly with the genus. The limits of the towers satisfy the same ...

Executive dysfunction is a deficiency in skills of planning and problem solving that characterizes many neuropsychiatric disorders. The Towers Task is a commonly used measure of planning and problem solving for assessing executive function. Towers Task data are usually zero-inflated and right-censored, and ignoring these features can result in biased inference for the disease characterization o...

the nondestructive techniques are applied to identify important data from the internal process of distillation towers, process towers, pressure vessels and etc. in recent, the gamma-ray scanning techniques as diagnostic tools for scanning of tray columns, packed columns, storage tanks, level measurement and density measurement of containing materials has been used widely. this paper has tried t...

Exergy analysis and response surface methodology (RSM) is applied to reduce the exergy loss and improve energy and exergy efficiency of acetic acid production plant. Exergy analysis is run as a thermodynamic tool to assess exergy loss in reactor and towers of acetic acid production process. The process is simulated in Aspen Plus(v.8.4) simulator and the necessary thermodynamics data for calcula...

Abstract    Historical monument of Menar-Jonban (shaking tower) is located in the famous city of Isfahan in central Iran. Initial construction of this interesting and unique masonry monument belongs to 700 years ago. This monument has two vibrating circular towers of 7.5 m height. These towers are separated from each other by a distance of 9.2 m and constructed on top of an ancient tomb of 10 m...

Wind loading on a transmission tower structure is jointly influenced by the wind field, structural parameters, and geo-spatial configuration of line. Considering multi-parametric effect, this paper aims at developing limit capacity model for towers under strong winds. To end, expressed via two equivalent means: one speed as function angle attack span line; other surface with three fundamental l...

Editorial Corridors and Towers When C P Snow wrote "The Corridors of Power" he sought to demonstrate the inner workings of the political process in Whitehall. Now that we are coming towards the end of the useful life of the building known as the "RVH corridor" it is time to consider some of the inner workings of our own profession. Wards 1-20 in the Royal Victoria Hospital represent only a smal...

We formulate variants of the cardinals f, p and t in terms of families of measurable functions, in order to examine the effect upon these cardinals of adding one random real.

Given two isospectral not isometric manifolds, we construct a new couple of such manifolds as the total spaces of two Riemannian submersions with totally geodesic fibers isometric to the given ones and of basis any other given manifold. By iteration, we obtain families of isospectral not isometric manifolds.
