The permanent magnet linear generator is widely applied in the direct-drive wave energy converter (DD-WEC) because of its high power density. In this paper, a novel tubular generator, which consists multilayer and interior magnets (MI-TLPMGs), presented for DD-WEC, improves output back electromotive force (back EMF) through flux concentrating effect. However, MI-TLPMGs with embedded have severe...

background: a set of hardware stereotactic radiosurgery is designed and constructed. the scope of this article is to describe how we have designed and developed stereotactic collimation assembly for a 9 mv neptun 10 pc linac. materials and methods: one collimator holder and six collimators were made, with their radiation field diameter between 12.5 mm to 25 mm at isocenter level. beam data, suc...

In this paper, a method based on binary-coded genetic algorithm is proposed to explore an optimization method, for obtaining an optimal elliptical tank. This optimization method enhances the rollover threshold of a tank vehicle, especially under partial filling conditions. Minimizing the overturning moment imposed on the vehicle due to c.g. height of the liquid load, lateral acceleration and ca...

Abstrakt Konečno-stavový automat je formalizmus, ktorý je schopný do veľkej miery modelovať činnosť robotického systému. Ba, činnosť robotického systému možno pomocou stavových automatov priamo riadiť: riadiaci systém robota môže tvoriť jeden alebo viacero stavových automatov, presnejšie transducerov, kde prechody medzi stavmi generujú akcie. Bolo ukázané, že stavové automaty ako riadiaci systé...

[59] Milman Parry’s work attempted to demonstrate the traditional character of Homeric poetry. Despite a later shift in focus from the concept of “traditional” to “oral” (Finnegan 1991: 120), with at least the implication of a relatively open system as opposed to a relatively closed one, Parry’s early emphasis on tradition was so strong that his theory tended to be read as one discounting, if n...

[1] A decadal warming trend of Antarctic Bottom Water flowing through the Vema Channel is reanalyzed. Our data base consists of 94 high precision, full depth stations from 19 visits to the Vema Sill plus twelve stopovers at two additional key locations. Originally a long-term temperature increase in the near-bottom jet was noted from 1992 onward, after a period of rather constant abyssal temper...

In this paper, we consider the problem of sequentially testing simple hypotheses concerning the drift of a Brownian motion process from a unified Bayesian and frequentist perspective. The conditional frequentist approach to testing statistical hypotheses has been utilized in a variety of settings to produce tests that are virtually equivalent to their objective Bayesian counterparts. Herein, we...

This paper describes remediation activities performed in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) on an underground storage tank (UST) from the Idaho National Laboratory’s Test Area North (TAN) complex. The UST had been used to collect radioactive liquid wastes from and for the TAN evaporator. Recent analyses had found that the residual w...

multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. these reactors have been studied based on computational fluid dynamics (cfd) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigations...

background: radiosurgery is a focal brain irradiation technique that delivers, usually in a single session, high dose of ionizing radiation. the presence of lateral electronic disequilibrium and steep dose gradients in small fields demands special attention to the selection of a suitable detector with respect to its size, composition and response. materials and methods : small circular fields w...
