Traditional mobile phones have been used for alerting purposes by utilizing their SMS and cell broadcasting features. They do however not suit for demanding alerting and command purposes, for the observation of special forces, rescue officers and civilians, or for the post-evaluation of the operation. Current 3G and 4G/LTE smartphones can do all this, but the empirical evidence is missing. This...

Ines M. Hübler Department of General Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Illinois 61801 (Dated: November 28, 2004) Abstract When an isotropic object is accelerated by plane waves, its limiting speed is less or equal to the wave speed. We study the acceleration of anisotropic objects in classical wave-particle systems. We investigate objects with anisotropic mass dis...

In this talk we will describe the problems that one encounters when one tries to connect string theory with particle phenomenology. Then, in order to have chiral matter describing quarks and leptons, we introduce the magnetized D branes. Finally, as an explicit example of a string extension of the Standard Model, we will describe the one constructed by Ibáñez, Marchesano and Rabadán. Work parti...

Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Food Services recently implemented a standardized menu at all static service locations. Within this new regime, CAF Food Services requires a standard against which they can measure labour performance and use to inform future rationalization of staffing. To start, a pilot study was conducted in February and March 2015 to collect labour performance data. In this paper,...

The accelerating expansion of the universe suggests that an unknown component with strongly negative pressure, called dark energy, currently dominates the dynamics of the universe. Such a component makes up ;70% of the energy density of the universe yet has not been predicted by the standard model of particle physics. The best method for exploring the nature of this dark energy is to map the re...

The Indian Armed Forces with a closely knit community, life of their own provides a unique opportunity to study the adaptive and maladaptive characteristics of his actions. In this study thirty two percent of attempted suicide in the Armed Forces achieved discharge from service is a testament to the urgency and intensity of the need to get out of the service. Twently-two percent of control psyc...

The cosmological neutrino background will mediate long range forces between objects. For a background of temperature T, the potential decreases as 1/r 5 for r >> 1/T and as 1/r for r << 1/T. These forces have large spin-dependent components. If the neutrino background is nonrelativistic, the long range forces are enhanced by a factor of the inverse neutrino velocity. These long range forces may...
