In a data word each position carries a label from a finite alphabet and a data value from some infinite domain. This model has been already considered in the realm of semistructured data, timed automata and extended temporal logics. This paper shows that satisfiability for the two-variable fragment FO(∼,<,+1) of firstorder logic with data equality test ∼, is decidable over finite and over infin...

Linear dynamic response of simply supported nanobeams subjected to a variable axial force is assessed by Galerkin numerical approach. Constitutive behavior is described by three functional forms of elastic energy densities enclosing nonlocal and strain gradient effects and their combination. Linear stationary dynamics of nanobeams is modulated by an axial force which controls the global stiffne...

In this paper, we study the asymptotic (large time) behavior of a selection-mutation-competition model for a population structured with respect to a phenotypic trait when the rate of mutation is very small. We assume that the reproduction is asexual, and that the mutations can be described by a linear integral operator. We are interested in the interplay between the time variable t and the rate...

We present the first time-resolved spectroscopic study of the cataclysmic variable DWCancri. We have determined an orbital period of 86.10 ± 0.05min, which places the system very close to the observed minimum period of hydrogen-rich cataclysmic variables. This invalidates previous speculations of DW Cnc being either a permanent superhumper below the period minimum or a nova-like variable with a...

Pharmaceutical industry represents a range of industries with operation and processes as diverse as its product. Hence effluents coming from pharma industries vary from industry to industry. Thus it is almost impossible to describe a typical pharmaceutical effluent because of such diversity. Waste water is generally evaluated in terms of temp, pH, Total suspended solid (TSS), BOD, COD, Oil & gr...

We present period–luminosity relations for more than 23 000 red giants in the Large Magellanic Cloud observed by the OGLE-II microlensing project. The OGLE period values were combined with the 2MASS single-epoch JHKS photometric data. For the brighter stars we find agreement with previous results (four different sequences corresponding to different modes of pulsation in asymptotic giant branch ...

It is shown that the canonical balance of momentum of continuum mechanics can be formulated in a general way, but not independently of the usual balance of linear momentum, even in the absence of specified constitutive equations. A parallel construct can be made for the accompanying time-like canonical energy equation. On specifying the energy, previous particular cases can be deduced including...

T he F form of acropectorovertebral dysgenesis, also called F syndrome, is a rare dominantly inherited fully penetrant skeletal disorder. The name of the syndrome is derived from the first letter of the surname of the family in which it was originally described. Major anomalies include carpal synostoses, malformation of first and second fingers with frequent syndactyly between these digits, hyp...
