le mouvement transversal de la locomotive ou des wagons , appele ie lacet, provient de deux causes principales: -la conicite des bandages -les irregularites de la voie dans ie plan horizontal. on se propose ici d'etudier la premiere cause , ce qui nous conduit a une equation differentielle non lineaire du deuxieme ordre. • l'equation en question est etudiee dans plusieurs cas difftten...

We design and release BONIE, the first open numerical relation extractor, for extracting Open IE tuples where one of the arguments is a number or a quantity-unit phrase. BONIE uses bootstrapping to learn the specific dependency patterns that express numerical relations in a sentence. BONIE’s novelty lies in task-specific customizations, such as inferring implicit relations, which are clear due ...

cortical spreading depression (csd) are associated with dramatic failure of brain ion homeostasis, efflux of excitatory amino acids from nerve cells, increased energy metabolism and changes in cerebral blood flow. there is strong clinical and experimental evidence to suggest that csd is involved in the mechanism of migraine, stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury. therefore,...

objective headache is a frequent symptom in children and adolescents. migraine is one of the most common types of primary headache disorders in children that at times can be extremely disabling. many clinical features of migraine in children differ from that starting in adulthood. this review discusses the epidemiology,clinical features, management, and prognosis of migraine headache in childre...

The autoimmune nature of this disease has been defi ned, in part...

Results of cognitive psychology research are analysed to explain why it is diicult for retrieval system users to bring to mind alternative search terms. A human memory model is modiied in such a way that it produces additional search terms instead of human associations. A small experiment shows that such a spreading activation network can nd alternative terms-with a performance similar to the n...

Research on the cognitive consequences of bilingualism suggests a bilingual advantage: early experience with more than one language predicts better inhibitory control of attention. The mechanisms responsible for this advantage, however, are not well understood. We ask whether depth and time-course of memory encoding may be responsible. We measured bilingual and monolingual adults’ memory for no...

conclusions endocarditis is an important disease with a high mortality rate if not treated appropriately. therefore, these patients need more attention. in echocardiography, vegetation and complications of ie such as abscess and paravalvular leakage can be detected. results we studied 35 patients, 45% male and 55% female with a mean age of 56.36 ± 12.44 years. fever (80%) and chills (65.7%) wer...
