Herniation of small bowel through the peritoneal defect of the Pouch of Douglas is extremely rare type of internal hernia, and this type of internal hernia has been described as an entity of perineal hernia. Here, we describe a case of a 26-year-old female without history of abdominal surgery presenting with incarcerated small bowel hernia through a peritoneal defect of the Pouch of Douglas. Sh...

known as the inverse problem of the calculus of variations for the system (2.1). For historical reasons, we also refer to this problem as the Sonin–Douglas problem; Eq. (2.2) are called theSonin–Douglas equations. Having inmind the correspondence with classicalmechanics,we sometimes call the system F = (F1, . . . , Fm) the force. The functions g jk are called variational multipliers. If the fun...

A stochastic Ramsey model is studied with the Cobb-Douglas production function maximizing the expected discounted utility of consumption. We transformed the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the stochastic Ramsey model so as to transform the dimension of the state space by changing the variables. By the viscosity solution method, we established the existence of viscosity so...

General formulas for the scalar modes ai and a i D in the Seiberg–Witten SU(N) setting are derived in the cases with and without massive hypermultiplets. Subsequently these formulas are applied in a study of the SU(3) Argyres–Douglas point. We use this example to study the question, whether the scalar modes admit an interpretation in terms of BPS mass states everywhere in moduli space. The pape...

Density-independent high moisture content measurement is required in actual production line. In this paper, the experimental results for high moisture content measurement using microwave free-space technique are presented. The method is based on a ratio of phase shifts at two microwave frequencies after propagating through a sample. The experiments were performed with three kinds of sawdust nam...

We give a short proof of the theorem of Brown, Douglas and Fillmore that an essentially normal operator on a Hilbert space is a compact perturbation of a normal operator if and only if the Fredholm index of its translates are zero whenever deened. The proof is a modiication of the short proof of Lin's theorem on almost commuting self-adjoint elements we gave in 7]. Using similar methods we prov...

In this paper, we construct gauge bundles on a noncommutative toroidal orbifold Tθ/Z2. First, we explicitly construct a bundle with constant curvature connections on a noncommutative Tθ following Rieffel’s method. Then, applying the appropriate quotient conditions for its Z2 orbifold, we find a Connes-Douglas-Schwarz type solution of matrix theory compactified on Tθ/Z2. When we consider two cop...

In this paper we discuss numerical techniques involved in dynamic data driven application simulations (DDDAS). We present an interpolation technique and update procedures. A multiscale interpolation technique is designed to map the sensor data into the solution space. In particular we show that frequent updating of the sensor data in the simulations can significantly improve the prediction resu...

MOUNTAIN TOP DATA SET Yaron Seliktar, Douglas B. Williams, and James H. McClellan School of Electrical and Computer Engineering Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta, GA 30032-0250 [email protected] ABSTRACT In this paper we introduce a common framework for evaluating the performance of multiple weight, partially adaptive Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) algorithms in terms of compo...

Three–phase inductions machines are the primary consumers of electric power in industrialized countries, they can typically consume between 40 to 50% of all the generated power (Thomsom et al., 2001). Diagnostic testing of induction machines is therefore of tremendous importance in many applications, and has been the focus of intense research for many years (Aller et al., 2002), (Antonino-Daviu...
