Closed-loop system identification and fault detection and isolation are the two fundamental building blocks of process monitoring. Efficient and accurate process monitoring increases plant availability and utilisation. This dissertation investigates a subspace system identification and fault detection methodology for the Benfield process, used by Sasol, Synfuels in Secuda, South Africa, to remo...

in this paper, we introduce and characterize fuzzy wea-kly $e$-closed functions in fuzzy topological spaces and the relationship between these mappings and some properties of them are investigated.

in this paper, we give a generalization of the integral dependence from rings to modules. we study the stability of the integral closure with respect to various module theoretic constructions. moreover, we introduce the notion of integral extension of a module and prove the lying over, going up and going down theorems for modules.

introduction: nausea and vomiting are the most common complications after minor head trauma that increases the risk of intracranial pressure rising. therefore, the present study was aimed to compare the antiemetic effects of metoclopramide and ondansetron in the treatment of post-traumatic nausea and vomiting. methods: the study was a controlled, randomized, double blind clinical trial, which w...

Percutaneous screw fixation is a good modality for operative management of extra-articular and some intra-articular fractures the calcaneum amenable to closed reduction. Tongue-type calcaneal with dislocated posterior facet are usually treated percutaneous fixation. When treating substantial soft tissue compromise, particularly open fractures, reduction techniques crucial. They also provide pat...

OBJECTIVES The aim was to evaluate direct health care costs of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) and to calculate the cost-effectiveness ratio of closed fully collapsible plastic intravenous infusion containers vs. open (glass) infusion containers. METHODS A two-year, prospective case-control study was undertaken in four intensive care units in an Italian teaching hospit...

BACKGROUND Fractures of the distal radius are common and account for an estimated 17% of all fractures diagnosed. Two-thirds of these fractures are displaced and require reduction. Although distal radius fractures, especially extra-articular fractures, are considered to be relatively harmless, inadequate treatment may result in impaired function of the wrist. Initial treatment according to Dutc...

We consider the open string vacuum amplitude determining the interaction between a stack of N D3-branes and a single probe brane. When using light cone gauge, it is clear that the sum of planar diagrams (relevant in the large-N limit) is described by the free propagation of a closed string. A naive calculation suggests that the Hamiltonian of the closed string is of the form H = H0 − gsNP̂ . The...

background : ulcerative colitis an inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) and chronically idiopathic immune related that associates with extraintestinal manifestations such as arthritis. despite of the highly specificity ofanti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (ccp) antibodies for rheumatoid arthritis, their role in ibd remains unclear . there are only a few studies on the prevalence of anti-ccp antibodi...

objective: the aim of this study is to further compare the efficacy of pge2 suppository, the intracervical foley catheter and extra-amniotic saline infusion in nulliparous women referred for labor induction. materials and methods: totally 368 nulliparous women with a bishop score ≤ 4 with singleton gestation, vertex presentation and intact membrane referred for labor induction were randomly ass...
