FPGA fault repair schemes remove faulty elements from designs through reconfiguration. In designs with high FPGA utilization, a sufficient number of routable faultfree elements may not be available for permanent fault repair. We present a new permanent fault repair scheme, in which the original design is reconfigured into another fault tolerant design that has smaller area, so the damaged eleme...

This paper presents a procedure for rehabilitating plastic hinges with damaged/fractured weldable longitudinal rebars in severely damaged reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns and possible improvements regarding connection protection hinge development. Damaged/fractured are replaced new rebar segments, the basis of this approach involves connecting intermediate machined parts to original by w...

Skin electrical resistance is determined by the degree of sweating of the skin which is, in turn, related to sympathetic nervous system activity in the area concerned. It is increased when the nerves supplying the area are damaged or blocked by local anaesthetic agents. We have assessed the temporal and spatial relationship between the onset of sympathetic and sensory loss in the hand following...

The termite Odototermes obesus (Rambur) either tunnel through soil or move inside the ‘mudtube’ usually found on walls in cracks between boards and walls. mud tube formation could provide initial proof of infestation. study analyses behavioral changes when indoor was damaged. response termites recorded by video camera at certain intervals until repaired closed. Seasonal effects repairing damage...

One of the most important premises of research in image processing happens to be Image inpainting which is a technique to fill missing region or reconstruct damaged area in an image. Through image inpainting one can also remove an undesirable object from an image in visually plausible way. For filling the part of image, it uses information from the neighboring area. In this paper, we present an...

Scientists who study the brain try to understand how it performs everyday behaviors like language, memory, and emotion. learn a lot by studying these change when is damaged. Over past 200 years, they have made many discoveries individuals with damage. For example, one patient could not form sentences after damaging specific area of his brain. The scientist studied him concluded that damaged was...
