In this paper, we introduce the notions of C-numerical range and C-spectrum of matrix polynomials. Some algebraic and geometrical properties are investigated. We also study the relationship between the C-numerical range of a matrix polynomial and the joint C-numerical range of its coefficients.

In earlier studies, meniscal replacement with a porous polymer implant led to regeneration of neo-meniscal tissue. To evaluate the influence of the chemical properties on the tissue regeneration in the implant, in the present study, the meniscus in the dog's knee was replaced with either an aromatic 4,4-diphenylmethanediisocyanate based polyesterurethane implant (Estane) (n = 6) or with an alip...

For proper management of total product life cycle, it is fundamentally important to systematize design and engineering information about product systems. For example, maintenance operation could be more efficiently performed, if appropriate parts design information is available at the maintenance site. Such information shall be available as an information infrastructure for various kinds of eng...

This report proposes an investigation of an adaptive architecture for interest management in large-scale distributed virtual environments (DVEs). DVEs, like many distributed systems suffer from large amounts of extraneous network communication in order to ensure replicated data remains consistent. Techniques for minimisation of this overhead by specifying data subscriptions on a ‘per-node’ basi...

In this research work, an attempt has been made to examine the different welding parameters which affect the weldability of 304H Austenitic stainless steel (ASS) welded joint using the proper filler wire. Chemical composition of filler wire was same as that of base metal. Further this study addressed the combined effect of various welding parameters on the metallurgical and mechanical propertie...

results the results of this study showed high reliability and validity of smartphone in regarding ug with icc > 0.95. the highest reliability for both methods was in elbow supination and the lowest was in the elbow flexion (0.84). objectives the study was designed to compare the smartphone inclinometer-based app and ug in evaluation of rom of elbow. materials and methods the maximum rom of elbo...
