preprint numerics no. 4/2007 norwegian university of science and technology trondheim, norway Abstract. In the last years, implicit SRK methods have been developed both for strong and weak approximation. For these methods, the stage values are only given implicitly. However, in practice these implicit equations are solved by iterative schemes like simple iteration, modified Newton iteration or ...

AIMS To study the refractive outcome of cataract surgery employing IOLMaster biometry data and to compare it with that of applanation ultrasonography in a prospective study of 100 eyes that underwent phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. METHODS The Holladay formula using IOLMaster data was employed for the prediction of implanted intraocular lenses (IOLs). One month after c...

Modifying blasting practices to achieve a more suitable mill feed size – which varies according to the crushing/grinding circuit – can achieve up to a 30% increase in throughput. Following an initial benchmarking of an operation’s practices, SRK can advise on how value-added blasting will deliver improvements in both mill capacity and overall consistency of performance. SRK employs modelling to...

BACKGROUND The study presented here aims to optimize the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculations in patients after DMEK by evaluation of the impact of the altered anterior/posterior corneal curvature relationship. METHODS Scheimpflug-based Oculus Pentacam imaging was performed after DMEK surgery for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy. The IOL power was calculated for all patients by ra...

PURPOSE To investigate the accuracy of a new optical biometer for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in eyes undergoing cataract surgery. METHODS Consecutive eyes of patients undergoing cataract surgery with the same IOL model were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Axial length (AL) and corneal power were measured with an optical biometer based on optical low-coherence interferome...

The S locus receptor kinase and the S locus glycoproteins are encoded by genes located at the S locus, which controls the self-incompatibility response in Brassica. In class II self-incompatibility haplotypes, S locus glycoproteins can be encoded by two different genes, SLGA and SLGB. In this study, we analyzed the sequences of these genes in several independently isolated plants, all of which ...

A new element- and chemical bond-dependent GE-EoS model(SRK-UNICAC) is proposed to consider the deviation of vapor liquid phases from ideal state. The SRK-UNICAC model combines UNICAC SRK cubic equation It uses original interaction parameters this calculate GE. predicted vapor-liquid equilibria for 87 binary systems under low- medium-pressure conditions, 12 high-pressure 14 ternary systems; a c...

In Brassica, two self-incompatibility genes, encoding SLG (S locus glycoprotein) and SRK (S-receptor kinase), are located at the S locus and expressed in the stigma. Recent molecular analysis has revealed that the S locus is highly polymorphic and contains several genes, i.e., SLG, SRK, the as-yet-unidentified pollen S gene(s), and other linked genes. In the present study, we searched for expre...
