In a generalized Maker-Breaker positional game, Maker and Breaker play in turns. Maker makes a moves in each turn and Breaker makes b moves in each turn. We choose Maker to be the first player, although this nearly always makes no difference in the outcome of the game. We call such games (a : b)-games. If a = b, the game is fair, otherwise it is biased. If a = b > 1, the game is accelerated. In...

abstract: this paper presents the results of studies concerned with the preparation of fresh food foams based on egg white and various hydrocolloids including iranian gum tragacanth, guar and xanthan gums at different concentrations (0.002-0.040% w/w). the basic physical parameters of the obtained foams such as overrun, stability and morphology of gas bubbles were measured. viscosity measuremen...

In this article, an exact levy solution is presented for bending analysis of a functionally graded (FG) annular sector plate. The governing equilibrium equations are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Introducing an analytical method for the first time, the three coupled governing equilibrium equations are replaced by an independent equation in term of transverse deflection. This equ...

How can the large power needs of future electric ships for propulsion, radar, and weapons systems be met given the prohibitive size and weight of the required number of standard 60 Hz AC generators and transformers? A solution may lie in a rugged, efficient, and compact solid-state, 10-20 kV Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) circuit breaker (Figure 1). In this paper, Diversified Technologies, Inc. will ...

β-amyloid hypothesis is the predominant hypothesis in the study of pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. This hypothesis claims that aggregation and neurotoxic effects of amyloid β (Aβ) is the common pathway in a variety of etiological factors for Alzheimer's disease. Aβ peptide derives from amyloid precursor protein (APP). β-sheet breaker peptides can directly prevent and reverse protein misfol...

A circuit breaker is widely used to protect electric power system from fault currents or system errors; in particular, the opening mechanism in a circuit breaker is important to protect current overflow in the electric system. In this paper, multibody dynamic model of a circuit breaker including switch mechanism was developed including the electromagnetic actuator system. Since the opening mech...

Abstract This paper designs an intelligent protective circuit breaker, which can monitor the leakage, voltage, current, temperature, and other parameters in user’s line real-time through built-in electric energy metering module, temperature sensors, alarm according to set threshold. It give early warning about dangerous situation advance. At same time, it upload cloud platform wireless communic...

We review the data structures that have been proposed for one-dimensional packet classification. Our review is limited to data structures for the case when ties among the rules that match an incoming packet are broken by selecting the matching rule that is most specific. For the case when the rule filters are destination-address prefixes or are nonintersecting ranges, this tie breaker correspon...
