Low power consumption is a key design metric for portable wireless network devices where battery energy is a limited resource. The resultant energy efficient design problem can be addressed at various levels of system design, and indeed much research has been done for hardware power optimization and power management within a wireless device. However, with the increasing trend towards thin clien...

Among the power drills ( Electrical/ Pneumatic/Battery ) used in Orthopedic surgery, battery drill has got several advantages. Surgeons in low resource settings could not routinely use Orthopedic battery drills (OBD) due to the prohibitive cost of good drills or poor quality of other drills. “Hardware” or Engineering battery drill (HBD) is a viable alternative to OBD. HBD is easy to procure, ru...

the present study was designed to develop a preliminatory cognitive screeting test battery for differentiating brain damaged patients, from psychiatric patients and normal subjects.based on previous researches, the items scales, administraion and scoring instructions for the test battery were prepared. the test included the following scales: attention, memory, construction ability, receptive la...

This paper investigates the effect of temperature on a hybrid energy storage system with various energy management systems. The hybrid energy storage system consists of a fuel cell, ultracapacitor and battery with associated DC/DC and DC/AC converters. The energy management strategies employed are the state machine control strategy, fuzzy frequency/logic decoupling strategy, minimization strate...

battery pack is the main energy storage element, and directly affects the performance of electric vehicle. this paper selects the forced air cooling of horizontal battery pack as the study object, and researches the heat dissipation performance of different operating conditions with fleunt software. results indicate that: according to the four kinds of transient state conditions and steady stat...

BACKGROUND Patients with heart failure (HF) experience frequent rehospitalizations and poor functional capacity. Early hospital mobility may prevent functional decline, but mobility patterns among hospitalized HF patients are not yet known. Accelerometers may provide a method to monitor and measure patient mobility objectively. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to describe mobility and f...

Abstract This essay considers the multiscalar manifestations of loss and destruction through material-semiotic figure “spent earth,” a toxic waste by-product generated by industrial bleaching crude oils into edible oils. Drawing on two distinct encounters with spent earth in Indonesian palm oil sector, reflects substance's unevenly distributed effects across peoples, places, generations; its as...
