We introduce a new class of edge labelings for locally finite lattices which we call SB-labelings. We prove for finite lattices which admit an SB-labeling that each open interval has the homotopy type of a ball or of a sphere of some dimension. Natural examples include the weak order, the Tamari lattice, and the finite distributive lattices.

this paper addresses the mixed integer reliability redundancy allocation problems to determine simultaneous allocation of optimal reliability and redundancy level of components based on three objective goals. system engineering principles suggest that the best design is the design that maximizes the system operational effectiveness and at the same time minimizes the total cost of ownership (tco...

ovarian mixed germ cell tumors consisting of endodermal sinus tumor and immature teratoma are very rare and have been reported only in a few case reports. here we report a rare mixed germ cell tumor of ovary which was consisted of endodermal sinus tumor and immature teratoma components with an unusual intraabdominal location. patient was a 21 years old girl with the chief compliant of abdominal...

A bridge in a graph is an edge whose removal disconnects the graph and increases the number of connected components. We calculate the fraction of bridges in a wide range of real-world networks and their randomized counterparts. We find that real networks typically have more bridges than their completely randomized counterparts, but they have a fraction of bridges that is very similar to their d...

We describe medium-resolution spectroscopic observations taken with the ESO Multi-Mode Instrument (emmi) in the Ca ii K line (λair=3933.661Å) towards 7 QSOs located in the line-of-sight to the Magellanic Bridge. At a spectral resolution R= λ/∆λ = 6,000, five of the sightlines have a signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of∼ 20 or higher. Definite Ca absorption due to Bridge material is detected towards 3...

A systematic methodology for condition assessment of the historic road bridges was needed because poor and inadequate which cannot satisfy everyday-day dynamic loads deteriorations due to aging process. Thus in this study, a new expert system based on knowledge approach has been proposed develop procedure these using fuzzy logic sets ?-cuts. Each bridge is divided into three components: superst...
