The changes of the seabed environment caused by a natural disaster or human activities dramatically affect the life span of the subsea buried cable. It is essential to track the cable route in order to inspect the condition of the buried cable and protect its surviving seabed environment. The magnetic sensor is instrumental in guiding the remotely-operated vehicle (ROV) to track and inspect the...

At the leading edge of healing embryonic epithelium, cables of actin filaments appear to extend from cell to cell, forming a ring around the wound circumference. It has been hypothesized that this actin filament cable functions as a contractile 'purse string' to facilitate wound closure. We have observed this cable in large, circular healing epithelial wounds in corneas of adult mice. To elucid...

Cable winding is an alternative technology to create stator windings in large electrical machines. Today such cable winding is performed manually, which is very repetitive, time-consuming and therefore also expensive. This paper presents the design, function and control system of a developed cable feeder tool for robotized stator cable winding. The presented tool was able to catch a cable insid...

In order to alleviate the relationship between mining and roadway, 3204 working face 3206 roadway in Shanxi Taitou coal mine are taken as an example, width of support parameters while reversing excavation under dynamic pressure optimized. The research includes field investigations, theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, tests. Based on characteristics roof fracture distribution pillar stre...

Introduction. To achieve a functional atraumatic cochlear implantation, intracochlear pressure changes during the procedure should be minimized. Postinsertional cable movements are assumed to induce intracochlear pressure changes. The aim of this study was to observe intracochlear pressure changes due to postinsertional cable movements. Materials and Methods. Intracochlear pressure changes were...

The available EMTP-type programs have dedicated support routines (Cable Constants) for calculating an electric representation of cable systems in terms of a series impedance matrix Z and a shunt admittance matrix Y, based on cable data defined by geometry and material properties. Z and Y are then used as the basic input for the various cable models applied in time domain transient simulations. ...

Effective competition for local monopoly cable systems would seem to offer a natural solution to nagging problems widely attributed to the cable industry, such as high prices and poor service. In regulatory and legislative proceedings leading up to the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992,(note 1) however, potential or existing competitors to local cable systems comp...

Cable interference in cable-driven mechanisms (CDM) is a major challenge in their applications. The wrench closure workspace (WCW) in a fully constrained mechanism may not be realized unless cable interference is considered. This paper classifies all possible types of cable interferences for planar cable-driven mechanisms and presents an analytical solution to find the boundaries of the constan...

In this paper, we evaluate two types of anchor texts: a page anchor and a site anchor. Since the anchor text tends to summarize information referred ahead, it can be expected that the terms appearing there have important meaning in information retrieval. We introduce a retrieval method to give high priority to the terms in the anchor text. In the experiment, we compared the proposed method with...
