A major challenge in building groupware systems is to provide support for control and coordination of users actions on shared resources. This support includes the maintenance of the current state of the collaborative multi-user environment such as control of group interaction rules and coordination of users actions or tasks. We propose an extension of the visual presentation/underlying data mod...

The Hugoniot elastic limit and spall strength were measured for a heat-resistant metal-matrix composite Inconel 625–5%NiTi–TiB2 alloy additive manufactured (AM) by direct laser deposition. characteristics of the obtained from analysis complete wave profiles recorded with VISAR Doppler velocimeter during shock-wave loading samples. samples loaded using PP50 pneumatic gun or ad hoc explosive devi...

A 26-year-old man with complete neurogenic diabetes insipidus since age nine was initially treated with vasopressin (Pitressin Tannate in oil). At age 13, its dosages were progressively increased to control the patient's polyuria; minor allergic symptoms occurred after every such treatment. We incubated serial dilutions of the patient's plasma with 125I-labeled arginine-vasopressin and obtained...

We report the fabrication of femtosecond laser-induced, first-order waveguide Bragg gratings in lithium niobate in the low repetition rate regime. Type-II waveguides are written into an x-cut lithium niobate wafer and structured periodically to achieve narrowband reflections at wavelengths around 1550 nm. Additionally, electrodes are employed to allow for electro-optic tuning of the spectral re...

Introduction: Pathologically sialolithiasis is a disease which results in the obstruction of a salivary gland by a sialolith. Sialolith is generally seen in small size and their sizes range from 1 mm to 1 cm. Large salivary gland calculi are infrequent and defined as the size of 1.5 cm or larger. Only a few cases of large sialolith of the submandibular glands have been reported in literature. I...
