This paper presents a low loss and high selective lowpass filter which is implemented using suspended stripline (SSL) technology. The proposed structure is comprised of a 13th order generalized Chebyshev lowpass filter which enjoys integrated waveguide-to-SSL transitions. This filter is designed and fabricated to be used as lowpass channel of a U-band diplexer employed in frontend of a U-band d...

Ferritic stainless steel (FSS) grades are widely used for applications that require high strength and corrosion resistance. Their cost versatility in the market have attracted a lot of interest from both industry academic research. Despite their desirable properties, these steels experience surface defects as result microstructural evolution evolves due to softening mechanism. The current study...

background: butterworth, gaussian, hamming, hanning, and parzen are commonly used spect filters during filtered back-projection (fbp) reconstruction, which greatly affect the quality and size accuracy of image. materials and methods: this study involved a cardiac phantom in which 1.10 cm thick cold defect was inserted into its myocardium wall and filled with 4.0 μci/ml (0.148 mbq/ml) 99mtc conc...

A rapidly growing literature has documented important improvements in financial return volatility measurement and forecasting via use of realized variation measures constructed from high-frequency returns coupled with simple modeling procedures. Building on recent theoretical results in Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard (2004a, 2005) for related bi-power variation measures, the present paper provi...

we study algebraic properties of categories of merotopic, nearness, and filter algebras. we show that the category of filter torsion free abelian groups is an epireflective subcategory of the category of filter abelian groups. the forgetful functor from the category of filter rings to filter monoids is essentially algebraic and the forgetful functor from the category of filter groups to the cat...

the continuous filter is a kind of sand filter, which will operate without any interruptions for backwashing and also it accepts high-suspended solid levels in feed stream. fouled sand is continuously removed from the filter bed, washed and recycled back without interruption with filtration process. various samples of water with certain amounts of turbidity enter through a feed pipe and being d...
