In this paper, circuital and numerical models of metal enclosure with apertures are considered for the purpose of accurate shielding effectiveness calculation. An improved circuital model is presented to account for the presence of receiving dipole antenna which is often used in practice to measure the level of electromagnetic field at selected points inside the enclosure. Receiving antenna of ...

OBJECTIVE The optimal treatment strategy for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is highly debated. However, growing evidence supports the use of minimally invasive techniques, such as transoral laser microsurgery (TLM), as a first-line treatment modality for these carcinomas. The purpose of our study was to assess the efficacy and safety of TLM for the treatment of primary and recurrent orop...

Modeling and simulation are important tools for efficient product development. There is a growing need collaboration, interdisciplinary simulation, re-usability of models. This usually requires to be coupled together co-simulation. However, the usefulness co-simulation often limited by poor performance numerical instability. Achieving stability especially hard stiff mechanical couplings. A suit...

Typical features of the Transmission Line Matrix (TLM) algorithm in connection with stub loading techniques and prone to be hidden by common frequency domain formulations are elucidated within the propagator approach. In particular, the latter reflects properly the perturbative character of the TLM scheme and its relation to gauge field models. Internal ‘gauge’ degrees of freedom are made expli...

In this paper, we evaluate the effectiveness of model slicing to provide assurance about correctness of SystemC TLM programs. The need for such assurance is important since SystemC has become a de-facto standard for building systems with hardware/software co-design. Existing approaches that enable one to transform the given SystemC TLM program into an UPPAAL model that can be verified suffer fr...

BACKGROUND We conducted longitudinal voice evaluations in patients with early glottic cancer who underwent transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) to determine the time to stability. METHODS Twenty-five patients underwent TLM, including 13 limited cordectomies (type I and type II) and 12 extended cordectomies (type III to type IV). Multidimensional voice evaluations were performed before treatment...

in this paper, shielding effectiveness (se) of a perforated enclosure with imperfectly conducting walls is evaluated. to this end, first, an accurate numerical technique based on method of moments (mom) ispresented. in this method, lossy metallic walls of the enclosure are replaced by equivalent electric surfacecurrent sources. then, the impedance boundary condition on the imperfectly conductin...

BACKGROUND Time-lapse monitoring (TLM) has emerged as a novel technology to perform semi-quantitative evaluation of embryo morphology and developmental kinetics in assisted reproduction. While this method has already been introduced into clinical practice in many laboratories, it is unclear whether it adds value to conventional morphology. Most studies only report blastocyst formation as the pr...

Design technology is expected to rise to electronic system-level (ESL). This necessitates new techniques and tools for synthesizing ESL designs and for verifying them before and after ESL synthesis. A promising verification strategy for future very complex designs is to initially verify the design at the highest level of abstraction, and then check the equivalence of the lower level automatical...
