Attached to this letter, please find an insolation sensitivity study of the HI-STORM EHT thermal model for PFS. We trust that the above information fulfills the verbal commitment made by us in an earlier telecon.

Agrobacterium was identified as the agent causing the plant tumor, crown gall over 100 years ago. Since then, studies have resulted in many surprising observations. Armin Braun demonstrated that Agrobacterium infected cells had unusual nutritional properties, and that the bacterium was necessary to start the infection but not for continued tumor development. He developed the concept of a tumor ...

Exponential growth in digital information gathering, storage, and processing capabilities for biological data herald a new age of biology, when entire biological systems can potentially be understood. In order to facilitate human understanding of electronic components, the electronic design automation (EDA) industry has developed clean abstractions and design rules, enabling pervasive design re...

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic infection which has started to take place in emergency departments in our country during recent years due to the increasing trend toward keeping pets as well as the climatic changes becoming more and more prominent (Stull et al., 2012, Lau et al., 2010). Especially the squatter settlements, developing in urban areas, have caused it to become an important health issue...

Most of the Earth’s crust is created at midoceanic ridges where two tectonic plates move away from each other, known as constructive plate boundary system and extends for ∼60,000 km around the globe (Wright et al., 2006). It creates characteristic extensional structures, wherein tectonic stress is primarily released by rifting processes, which thus forms major system of normal faults and volcan...

More than 3 million people died prematurely in 2010 due to ambient exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5), according to estimates from the Global Burden of Disease Study. Although air pollution measurements taken from ground-level monitors can help inform such estimates, a paucity of monitoring stations outside of North America and Western Europe make it difficult to compare levels and tre...

It is common in many countries that engineers having an academic degree in Civil Engineering are appointed responsible for different tasks related to Bridge Engineering. However, there are serious questions about whether formal university courses in civil engineering could cover the needs of a bridge engineer to fulfill his or her job successfully. Regarding the recent significant advances in t...

undoubtedly, more attention is being made in the word service and industries that can be learnt from manufacturing for improving its production out puts and their associated quality and cost. these include such lean production, jit, tqm, and the relationship between buyer, supplier and finally the customer satisfaction. the main purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between three...
