in this paper, the interface crack of two non-homogenous functionally graded materials is studied. subsequently, with employing the displacement method for fracture of mixed-mode stress intensity factors, the continuous variation of material properties are calculated. in this investigation, the displacements are derived with employing of the functional graded material programming and analysis o...

Abstract Australian schools are diverse, and support students from a wide range of racial, cultural, linguistic backgrounds, as well with disability. Ironically, efforts to ensure equally diverse teacher workforces have been ineffective. Attempts improve broader representation in teachers hampered by homogenous approach recruitment education. In 2016, Literacy Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher ...

BACKGROUND A large percentage of autogenous and homogenous grafts are resorbed and replaced by the recipient's own tissue. It is generally believed that autogenous grafts are superior to homogenous ones. The aim of our study was to compare the effectiveness of autografts and allografts in achieving the healing of a non-union of forearm bones. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between 1976 and 2005, 56 pat...

The main objective of this paper is to identify themes from dialogues of telephone conversations in a real-life customer care service. In order to capture significant semantic content in spite of high expression variability, features are extracted in a large number of hidden spaces constructed with a Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) approach. Multiple views of a spoke document can then be repr...

This paper introduces the concept of the smooth tGAP structure represented by a space-scale partition, which we term the space-scale cube. We take the view of 'map generalization is extrusion of data into an additional dimension'. For 2D objects the resulting vario-scale representation is a 3D structure, while for 3D objects the resulting vario-scale representation is a 4D structure. This paper...

In this paper, we propose a new simplification algorithm to reduce the large amount of redundancy in 3D medical image datasets and generate a new representation in tetrahedral meshes with considerably lower storage requirements. In the proposed algorithm, we first apply level set segmentation to partition the volume data into several homogenous sub-regions. We consider the interior boundaries b...
