With reference to a large class of test statistics, higher order asymptotics on expected lengths of associated conndence intervals are investigated in a possibly non-iid setting. The connection with Bartlett adjustability is also indicated.

The Endotine midface technique, through an endoscopic temporal-incision only approach, is the author's preferred method of malar fat pad suspension and fixation. The bioabsorbable Endotine device avoids an intraoral incision, eliminates sutures, offers multipoint fixation, and the leash fixation mechanism provides fast and simple adjustability for optimal control of midface elevation and volume.

This paper describes the development of an efficient mechanical oscillator. It is capable of combining the energetic advantages of ballistic movement with cycle adjustability and active orbital control. Pneumatic artificial McKibben muscles are used as variable springs, from which the stiffness is varied in order to induce a limit cycle.

The surgical correction of four cases of paralytic strabismus, in which the muscle is repositioned postoperatively with the active co-operation of the patient, is described. The method adopted by the author, by inserting the suture near the limbus, increases the degree of adjustability and allows for more extensive repositioning of the conjunctiva.

In recent years, in order to solve the environmental pollution problem caused by coal-fired heating area of north china, electric has received extensive attention and gradually been developed vigorously. Considering building characteristics, outdoor temperature, indoor comfort other factors, heat load adjustability model is established, storage device's considering current operating status capa...

this study describes the design, construction and calibration of an adjustable three-point hitch dynamometer. the dynamometer frame design was based on an inverted u-shaped frame that was mounted between the tractor links and implement. the dynamometer frame design allows for use in both category i and ii three-point hitch systems because of its flexibility in a lower point hitch spread and mas...
