if we think of the graph as modeling a network, the vulnerability measure the resistance of the network to disruption of operation after the failure of certain stations or communication links. many graph theoretical parameters have been used to describe the vulnerability of communication networks, including connectivity, integrity, toughness, binding number and tenacity.in this paper we discuss...

The types of fractured-vuggy reservoirs are diverse, with dissolution holes and fractures different scales as the main reservoir spaces. Clarifying connectivity between wells is crucial for improving recovery rate avoiding problems poor water- flooding balance serious water channeling. A traditional dynamic connected model hardly describes geological characteristics multiple media, such karst c...

Water uptake in rock fractures caused by rainfall plays a significant role slope stability analysis. Since the fracture network system has complicated structures and multiple scales, models based on averaged cannot account for these properties. On other hand, model describing single with fractal characteristics surface roughness fails to deal case of at spatial scales. In this study, fracture-ne...

carpal fracture-dislocation is regarded as an unusual orthopedic injury and, thus, orthopedic surgeons are less experienced in dealing with and treating these fractures and dislocations. we report a 20-year-old worker man suffering from an unusual carpal fracture-dislocation. there was trans-scaphoid fracture and lunate dislocation with other carpal proximal bones toward volar of the wrist. two...

For each finite field F of prime order there is a constant c such that every 4-connected matroid has at most c inequivalent representations over F. We had hoped that this would extend to all finite fields, however, it was not to be. The (m,n)-mace is the matroid obtained by adding a point freely to M(Km,n). For all n ≥ 3, the (3, n)-mace is 4-connected and has at least 2 representations over an...

We show that every 4-connected planar graph has a B3-EPG representation, i.e., every vertex is represented by a curve on the grid with at most three bends, and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding curves share an edge of the grid. Our construction is based on a modification of the representation by touching thickened L-shapes proposed by Gonçalves et al. [4].

Introduction: Long-term stressful situations can drastically influence one’s mental life. However, the effect of mental stress on recognition of emotional stimuli needs to be explored. In this study, recognition of emotional stimuli in a stressful situation was investigated. Four emotional conditions, including positive and negative states in both low and high levels of arousal were analy...

Background: Ensuring adequate depth of anesthesia during surgery is essential for anesthesiologists to prevent the occurrence of unwanted alertness during surgery or failure to return to consciousness. Since the purpose of using anesthetics is to affect the central nervous system, brain signal processing such as electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to predict different levels of anesthesia....
