In this paper the procedure of RF filter design using two active elements OTA is shown. The general method of filter design using OTA amplifiers, when the fully connected feedback network was designed around the two OTA elements, is shown. Autonomous circuits were gradually picked out from this general arrangement, using two to five passive elements. These autonomous circuits then serve as an i...

Recently, there are lots of control equipments in a train such as traction control, air conditioners and even internet access. For this reason, vehicle network must allow for the big amount of transmission data and must ensure the high reliability. After investigating about characteristics of multifunction vehicle bus, an error detection and analysis system is proposed. The proposed error analy...

The starting point of this paper is the recent important work of F. E. Browder, who extended degree theory to operators of monotone type. The degree function of Browder is generalized to maps of the form T+f+G , where T is maximal monotone, f is of class (S)+ bounded, and G{ •) is an u.s.c. compact multifunction. It is also generalized to maps of the form f+NG , with / of class (5)+ and 7VC the...

Crew sizes in the Navy and Coast Guard continue to decrease. Optimally or minimally manned crews complete ever more complex and varied mission sets. Accordingly, crews rely on sensors and automatic operation to perform a host of duties formerly completed manually. The Non-Intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) provides a low cost, low-maintenance, rugged, easily installed tool for machinery monitoring f...

The concept of weakorthogonality for a Banach lattice is examined. A proof that in such a lattice non expansive self maps of a non empty weakly compact convex set have fixed points is outlined. A geometric generalization of weakorthogonality is introduced and related to the Opial condition. AMS subject classification: 47H10

OBJECTIVES Assess the effect of re-expansive respiratory patterns associated to respiratory biofeedback (RBF) on pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength and habits in individuals with functional mouth breathing (FMB). METHODS Sixty children with FMB were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group was submitted to 15 sessions of re-expansive respiratory patter...

This paper will outline the features required for a multifunction protective relay or intelligent electrical device (IED) that meets the special requirements of the distributed generation environment.
