The mobile communication is nowadays one of the basic needs of humanity. It is essential to the flourishing of human beings. Considering this reality, the need to use its mobile phone is become more important and diversified. The subscribers of the various mobile telephone operators are increasingly demanding. This situation poses the problems of the cover mobile network to the operators and le...

A FT spectrometer is an interferometer. Its historical and most widely known configuration is the Michelson interferometer, shown on Fig. 1. A beam-splitter is used for dividing the light to be spectrally analyzed into two beams. After they have been reflected on two distinct mirrors, the two beams are recombined by the same beam-splitter and sent to a detector. One of the mirrors is fixed, whi...

We have demonstrated a three-dimensional movable metamaterial (MM) with reconfigurable electric split-ring resonators (eSRR) at terahertz frequencies. This is accomplished by making planar arrays of eSRR with movable stress curved beams (eSRR-MSCBs) which are actuated out-of-plane by electrostatic force. Our results have demonstrated that the eSRR-MSCBs possess blueshifting capabilities and pol...

The prediction of scour evolution at bridge foundations is utmost importance for engineering design and infrastructures’ safety. complexity the scouring inherent flow field result separation generation multiple vortices further magnified due to dynamic interaction between movable bed throughout development a hole. In experimental environments, current approaches characterization rely mainly on ...

In this paper, we study a well known asymptotic limit in which the second Painlevé equation (PII) becomes the first Painlevé equation (PI). The limit preserves the Painlevé property (i.e. that all movable singularities of all solutions are poles). Indeed it has been commonly accepted that the movable simple poles of opposite residue of the generic solution of PII must coalesce in the limit to b...

Optically driven micromanipulators with submicron probe tips are proposed and developed by using two-photon microstereolithography. The micromanipulators are worked by maneuvering their movable component with a focused laser beam, and an actual pair of microtweezers was opened and shut precisely. We also propose an effective method of controlling movable micromachines with great freedom of move...

Farach, Kannan and Warnow (1995) have defined Problem MCA (matrix completion to additive) and proved it to be NP-complete: given a partial dissimilarity d on a finite set X , does there exist a tree metric extending d to all pairs of elements of X . We use a previously described simple method of phylogenetic reconstruction, and its extension to partial dissimilarities, to characterize some clas...

Recent research suggests that the resurgence of bed bugs in the U.S. has occurred at an alarming rate. Assumptions have been made that socioeconomic status is not associated with the prevalence of bed bug infestations. Little information is available at the local level, however, about the prevalence of bed bugs in private homes. The authors' pilot study aimed to identify prevalence, knowledge, ...
