Two experiments test predictions of a visual process-driven model of multi-term arithmetic computation. The visual process model predicts that attention should be drawn toward multiplication signs more readily than toward plus signs, and that narrow spaces should draw gaze comparably to multiplication signs. Although both of these predictions are verified by behavioral response measures and eye...

PURPOSE To create an accurate, low-cost optomechanical model eye for investigation of refractive errors in clinical and basic research studies. METHODS An optomechanical fluid-filled eye model with dimensions consistent with the human eye was designed and fabricated. Optical simulations were performed on the optomechanical eye model, and the quantified resolution and refractive errors were co...

  Since late 1960's, the emergency location problems, fire stations and medical emergency services have attracted the attention of researchers. Mathematical models, both deterministic and probabilistic, have been proposed and applied to find suitable locations for such facilities in many urban and rural areas. Here, we review some models proposed for finding the location of such facilities, wit...

Automatic recovery of eye gestures from image sequences is one of the important topics for face recognition and model-based coding of videophone sequences. Usually complicated models of the eye and its motion are used. In this contribution an eye gesture parameter estimation is described. A previously published automatic eye detection/tracking algorithm, based on template matching, is used for ...

the aim of this research is to simulate oil spill behavior in the persian gulf due to the wind andtidal currents. this is achieved by coding an oil spill mathematical model consisting of several major submodels including hydrodynamic model, oil slick dynamic model and oil weathering model. the base of all of them is eulerian approach and they are coupled together to simulate spill incident in t...

gene transfer to plants and the production of transgenic plants with various purposes, such as improving the performance and quality, resistance to pests, diseases, etc., and of great importance are carried out gene transfer to plants performs to evaluate the transient and permanent gene expression. transient expression is quick, easy and simple and is not influenced by position effect compare ...

A basic electrical model of the eye can be distorted analogously to the distortion of an eye when a tonometer is placed upon it. It may then be caused to match a clinical tonogram by adjustment of facility of outflow and stress relaxation. The classical elastic concept of the eye is compared to the viscoelastic concept by the use of models. Stress relaxation is offered as an explanation of the ...
