We employ the non-perturbative time-dependent basis function (tBF) approach to study scattering of deuteron on $^{208}$Pb below Coulomb barrier. obtain bound and discretized states projectile, which form representation tBF approach, by diagonalizing a realistic Hamiltonian in large harmonic oscillator basis. find that higher-order inelastic effects are noticeable for sub barrier scatterings wit...

BACKGROUND Intratumoral hypoxia is one of the resistant factors in radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cancer. Although it is detected by 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) PET, the relationship between intratumoral hypoxia and oxygen metabolism has not been studied. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intratumoral perfusion and oxygen metabolism in hypoxic regions using the rat xenograft m...

در این مقاله یک مدل ریاضی برای مسئله سیستم تولیدی همکارانه ساخت بر اساس سفارش با رعایت انصاف تخصیص بار‌های تولید طراحی شده است. اهداف اصلی مدل، کمینه‌سازی هزینه‌‌های کل و حداکثر استفاده از منابع به‌منظور عادلانه شرایط عدم­قطعیت کنترل پارامتر‌های غیرقطعی روش برنامه‌ریزی فازی ‌شده نتایج نشان می‌دهد افزایش نرخ عدم‌قطعیت، می­یابد. ازآنجاکه ظرفیت کارخانه‌ها ثابت است، مقدار تقاضا، هر کارخانه نیز می­ی...

In a directed forgetting task, midway through presentation of the list, participants are instructed to forget the first half of the list and to remember the second half of the list. Memory is tested for both to-beforgotten (TBF) and to-be-remembered (TBR) words. Typically, participants recall TBR more often than TBF words, although they remember just as many TBF as TBR words on recognition test...

BACKGROUND Emerging evidence indicates that there is an association between vitamin D and obesity. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the level of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] in the elderly is influenced by parameters of anthropometry and body composition independent of potential confounding lifestyle factors and the level of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). ME...

A novel reliability modeling and analysis framework based upon the distinct class of non-stationary Functional Series (FS) models is introduced. This framework allows for non-stationary reliability modeling, evolution assessment, analysis (including non-stationarity assessment, dependency assessment, as well as cycle detection), and prediction. The Functional Series framework is used for the mo...

As the dairy cow uses body energy reserves in early lactation, body condition scoring has become an integral part of dairy herd management. Several methods based on visual and tactile evaluation have been developed. Problems caused by the subjectivity of these techniques have been reported. Alternative approaches to predict energy reserves or energy balance in dairy cattle include metabolic pro...

PURPOSE Despite their efficacy, LVADs remain associated with serious complications. The relationship between haemodynamic changes during support and outcome remains inadequately characterised. This association was investigated in LVAD recipients undergoing prolonged support. METHODS Forty patients receiving LVAD therapy for >2 years were reviewed retrospectively (mean support duration was 38....

Despite extensive research efforts, effective therapies for advanced cancers have not yet been established, and development of successful treatment strategies remains the most important task in the field of oncology. Three significant problems in conventional chemotherapy using cytotoxic drugs require attention: (i) choosing the most effective drug for individual patients, (ii) delivering a suf...

The function of the comparing fingerprints algorithm was to judge whether a new partitioned data chunk was in a storage system a decade ago. At present, in the most de-duplication backup system the fingerprints of the big data chunks are huge and cannot be stored in the memory completely. The performance of the system is unavoidably retarded by data chunks accessing the storage system at the qu...
