A discontinuous spectral element method (DSEM) is presented to solve radiative heat transfer in multidimensional semitransparent media. This method is based on the general discontinuous Galerkin formulation. Chebyshev polynomial is used to build basis function on each element and both structured and unstructured elements are considered. The DSEM has properties such as hp-convergence, local cons...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine if ultrasound (US) measurements of anterior neck soft tissue thickness at hyoid bone (DSHB), thyrohyoid membrane (DSEM), and anterior commissure (DSAC) levels can be used to predict difficult laryngoscopy. MATERIAL/METHODS We included 203 patients age 20-65 years scheduled to undergo general anesthesia in this prospective observational study. ...

We develop spectral element methods for a timeand space-fractional advection equation of the form 0Dt u(x, t) + θ 0Dxu(x, t) = f(x, t), of order τ ∈ (0, 1], ν ∈ (0, 1), subject to Dirichlet initial/boundary conditions. We present two spectrally accurate and efficient methods for global discretization of both temporal and spatial terms, instead of employing traditional low-order time-integration...

This research analyzes the moderation effects of Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions (Power Distance, Uncertainty Avoidance and Indulgence) in relationship between Ambidextrous learning corporate sustainability born global firms. The data were collected from exporting firms characterized by beginning international operations first three years thus classified as Born Global. A panel Dynamic Structura...

Background: Currently, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus is a serious concern on global scale. Most type 2 cases are result many factors that also lead to metabolic problems with wide range consequences. Objective: This study aims identify effects web-based educational programs diabetic self-efficacy management (DSEM) and self-care behavior (DSCM) in quality life (QoL) among patients public h...

Doubly salient electromagnetic machine (DSEM) can constitute a competitive rugged starter generator (SG) system. But under the traditional startup control method, field current is set to rated value regardless of speed or load torque conditions, and phase currents are controlled with standard angle commutation, bringing in large power loss as well non-negligible ripple. To overcome these shortc...

Image processing plays a crucial role in automatic watercolor painting by manipulating the digital image to achieve desired effect. segmentation algorithms is essential for region-based processing, color mixing and blending, capturing brushwork texture, providing artistic control over final result. It allows more realistic expressive watercolor-like paintings different regions individually appl...

The La modified bismuth ferrite perovskite Bi0.6La0.4FeO3 (BLF) is prepared by cost-effective high solid-solution casting technique. Formation of composite checked through X-ray diffraction and also notable that there phase transition from rhombohedral (R3c) to orthorhombic (Pbnm). average crystalline size (DSC) mechanical lattice strain are 63.8 nm 0.147% respectively as calculated Williamson-...
