This paper describes a Software Tool for Automated MRI Post-processing (STAMP) of multiple types of brain MRIs on a workstation and for parallel processing on a supercomputer (STAMPS). This software tool enables the automation of nonlinear registration for a large image set and for multiple MR image types. The tool uses standard brain MRI post-processing tools (such as SPM, FSL, and HAMMER) for...

Abstract This paper is majorly discussing the impact resistance of hierarchical lightweight lattice structure. Firstly, unit cells pyramidal structure and traditional single-stage hollow are designed. At same time, concept relative density introduced to better demonstrate In this paper, ABAQUS/Explicit software used simulate drop hammer simulation The result shows that than Meanwhile, samples p...

Due to its high density and close-to-SRAM read latency, spin transfer torque RAM (STT-RAM) is considered one of the most-promising emerging memory technologies for designing large last level caches (LLCs). However, in deep sub-micron region, STT-RAM shows read-disturbance error (RDE) whereby a read operation may modify the stored data value and this presents a severe threat to performance and r...

In this paper, a piezoelectric impact hammer is designed and fabricated for generating stable repeated impact elastic waves and further for in-situ wave velocity measurements of concrete specimens. The piezoelectric impact hammer consists of a stacked multilayer PZT, a flying head system with an on-line load cell embedded and a holding fixture. To measure the longitudinal or Rayleigh waves of a...

SUMMARY Experimental MS(n) mass spectral libraries currently do not adequately cover chemical space. This limits the robust annotation of metabolites in metabolomics studies of complex biological samples. In silico fragmentation libraries would improve the identification of compounds from experimental multistage fragmentation data when experimental reference data are unavailable. Here, we prese...

BACKGROUND Racetrack surface is a risk factor for racehorse injuries and fatalities. Current research indicates that race surface mechanical properties may be influenced by material composition, moisture content, temperature, and maintenance. Race surface mechanical testing in a controlled laboratory setting would allow for objective evaluation of dynamic properties of surface and factors that ...

water hammer is one of the destructive hydrodynamic phenomena which is established in most pumping stations, transmission lines and hydroelectric power plants. this phenomenon gives rise to abnormal pressures, cavitation occurrence and finally pipe explosion and disturbance of the whole system. to control the maleffects of this event, different methods are devised. one of which is sometimes eno...

The power and validity of voxel based and tensor based morphometry methods depend on the accuracy of the brain image registration algorithms they employ. We propose a mutual information based quantitative evaluation method to compare the performance of two publicly available deformable registration packages: HAMMER and algorithms in the ITK package (FEM-Demons) The advantage of our approach is ...

In this paper, after collecting the rock samples from eight mines and one high way slope, the tests for determination of dry density, Uniaxial Compressive Strength, tensile Strength (Brazilian Test), elastic modulus, Schmidt hammer rebound number have been done on samples. In addition, in order to calculating the mean size of rock grains, quartz content, hardness and abrasivity, a thin sections...
