We present a simple procedure to construct non-local conserved charges for classical open strings on coset spaces. This is done by including suitable reflection matrices on the classical transfer matrix. The reflection matrices must obey certain conditions for the charges to be conserved and in involution. We then study bosonic open strings on AdS5×S. We consider boundary conditions correspondi...

We propose a new protocol providing cryptographically secure authentication to unaided humans against passive adversaries. We also propose a new generic passive attack on human identification protocols. The attack is an application of Coppersmith’s baby-step giantstep algorithm on human identification protcols. Under this attack, the achievable security of some of the best candidates for human ...

The aim of the present study was to examine the biomechanics of the lower limb during stair descent and the effects of increasing demand in two ways: by increasing step-height and by increasing body mass. Ten male subjects walked down a four-step staircase, the height of which could be altered. The step-heights were: standard (17 cm), 50% decreased, 50% increased and 75% increased. At the stand...

INTRODUCTION Current resuscitation guidelines emphasize a systems approach with a strong emphasis on quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Despite the American Heart Association (AHA) emphasis on quality CPR for over 10 years, resuscitation teams do not consistently meet recommended CPR standards. The objective is to assess the impact on chest compression depth of factors including bed h...

Heat transfer and laminar fluid flow over backward facing step with and without obstacle numerically studied in this paper. The finite volume method adopted to solve continuity, momentum and energy equations in two dimensions. Backward facing step without obstacle and with different dimension of obstacle were presented. The step height and expansion ratio of channel were 4.8mm and 2 respectivel...

Gait variability may serve as a sensitive and clinically relevant parameter to quantify adjustments in walking and the changes with aging and neurological disease. Variability of steps preceding obstacle avoidance (approach phase) are important for efficiency in the task, especially in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, variability of gait during the approach phase to obstacle avoid...

In this study, to measure the human finger’s tactile sensation capability of recognizing a fine surface texture using psychophysical experiments, a computer-controlled measurement system that presents fine step-heights of 0 to 1000 μm to human subjects’ fingers at various presentation angles were developed. The measurement system can control four parameters of fine step presentation, i.e., the ...

Although acoustic frequency is not a spatial property of physical objects, in common language, pitch, i.e., the psychological correlated of frequency, is often labeled spatially (i.e., "high in pitch" or "low in pitch"). Pitch-height is known to modulate (and interact with) the response of participants when they are asked to judge spatial properties of non-auditory stimuli (e.g., visual) in a v...

prediction of the waves’ specifications that is one of the key factors effective on transformation ofcoasts, production of renewable energies and design of marine structures, has always been importante.height of the waves is one of the most important and effective parameters of the wave. differentfactors are effective in variation of the waves’ height. in this research, variation in waves heigh...
