In previous research 2-year-olds have failed to show knowledge of solidity in a search task in which a ball rolled behind a screen and was stopped by a barrier. The screen had four doors and the barrier was visible above the door hiding the ball. To establish what cues 2-year-olds might be using, precise point-of-gaze measures were taken during the hiding event. A transparent screen with opaque...

This paper considers the three-dimensional container packing problem (3DCPP) under home delivery service, which predetermines an ordering of delivering ordered cargo boxes to customers, and aims to load a subset of those boxes according to the delivery ordering into a 3D car container with maximal utilization ratio of the container space while prohibiting the process of delivering cargos to eac...

There is a story about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, which, although charming, has not been verified as historical fact (Strachey, 1921). Whether true or not, the story illustrates the use of differential reinforcement. As the story goes, shortly after their marriage, Prince Albert and Queen Victoria had a quarrel. Albert walked (or stomped, depending on the telling) out of the room and loc...

0380 With a forceful gesture, the delicate blond unlocks the heavy door of a cell in Riga’s Central Prison clinic (Figure 1). Her name is Dr. Inga Nagele. She is the head of the clinic’s tuberculosis (TB) unit. She opens the door to check on three female prisoners who have just been admitted. The conditions in the cell are bleak. Washing hangs on a line that stretches from one wall to the other...

I if When I visited the hospital I knew that the birth had taken place about a week before, so I went prepared to see an almost completely recovered young mother, to admire the baby and chat hilariously about the shocks and indignities of the labour ward. It was normal visiting hours so it did not occur to me to ask a nurse if I could see her. Knowing the number of her room, I went straight up ...

Existing thermal condition and indoor air quality have a big impact on our work performance, comfort, health in an environment. Apart from many other parameters, door motions human movements play crucial role mass exchange affecting safety and/or energy management issues various situations. An isolation room hospital setup, for instance, helps to protect patients staff against the risk of infec...

Medical linear accelerators operating above 10 MV require door shielding for neutrons in addition to photons. A criterion for choice of optimal configuration of lamination of BPE (Borated Polyethylene) and lead is not clear. Moreover, optimal configuration cannot be determined by the conventional method using an analytical formula and simple measurement. This study performs Monte Carlo simulati...

Government by Baboo (now Raja) Bishn Prakash Narain Sing, to be used as the charitable dispensary at Fyzabad. It was impossible to obtain a good position for taking the photograph, but still the picture shews the building to be a very handsome one. We are indebted for the design to Lieut. Pierson, of the Itoyal Engineers. The hospital, which CDSt about Rs. 40,000, was finished in March, 1864. B...

Photonics is the platform of choice to build a modular, easy-to-network quantum computer operating at room temperature. However, no concrete architecture has been presented so far that exploits both advantages qubits encoded into states light and modern tools for their generation. Here we propose such design scalable fault-tolerant photonic informed by latest developments in theory technology. ...
