In the absence of a legal regime enforcing promises, the classical prediction of contract theory is that promisees will unverinvest in reliance whenever the promisor has a self-interested reason to break her promise down the road. But if a promisor experiences guilt for breaking her promise, this guilt may be intensified by the promisee’s reliance on the promise. Anticipating this, the promisee...

intake system design as well as inlet ports and valves configuration is of paramount importance in the optimal performance of internal combustion engines. in the present study, the effect of inlet ports design is investigated on om-457la diesel engine by using a cfd analysis and the avl-fire code as well. a thermodynamic model of the whole engine equipped with a turbocharger and an intercooler ...

World trade has changed in the last decade such that container traffic flows are oriented towards more parts of the European continent. The European container port system is not a homogeneous set of ports; instead it consists of several big ports (e.g., Rotterdam, Hamburg, Algeciras...) and a large number of medium and small ports. Northern Adriatic (NA) ports, namely Rijeka, Koper, Trieste, Ve...

A power divider (PD)/ power combiner (PC) with high quality factor and enhanced output ports isolation using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology is proposed. An SIW cavity is designed to provide a high quality factor filtering response and an SMD resistor is attached between two output ports to realize the high isolation. The value of the applied resistor is calculated by using the ...

implantable ports are used for intravenous infusion therapy and play an important role in management of oncology patients. these ports are best suited for patients requiring long-term therapy (>4 weeks). implanted ports provide reliable venous access protect peripheral access increase patients’ comfort through reducing repeated and difficult vein punctures allow for safe and comfortable adminis...
