ABSTRACT Large commercial aircraft by design are typically not capable of transporting maximum fuel capacity and payload simultaneously. Beyond the range, requirements reduce capability. Varying environmental conditions further impact capability noticeably. An airline's department requires prior knowledge any restrictions, to restrict booking levels accordingly. Current forecasting approaches u...

modernization has occurred in philosophical discourses of new sadrāi in form, method and content. changes and modernization also have occurred in the philosophy of mullā hadi sabzevari in relation with these issues. accordingly, we introduce him as initiator of the philosophical movement of new sadrāi. although his thought is in the line of sadrāi philosophy, there are some disagreements betwee...

Wurtzite and kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) nanocrystals were employed as counter electrode (CE) materials for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Compared to kesterite CZTS, the wurtzite CZTS exhibited higher electrocatalytic activity for catalyzing reduction of iodide electrolyte and better conductivity. Accordingly, the DSSC with wurtzite CZTS CE generated higher power conversion efficiency (6.8...

Though deontic logic is regarded as the logic of normative reasoning, norms – as entities lacking truth values – are usually represented neither in its language nor its semantics. Limiting ourselves to unconditional imperatives, we propose a concept for their semantic representation and show that existing systems of monadic and dyadic deontic logic can be reconstructed accordingly.

. Over 80% of cancer patients with advanced metastatic disease suffer pain caused mostly by direct tumor infiltration. Pain undermines quality of life considerably and is a clinically important indicator of tumor progression. Cancer pain may be acute or chronic and should be addressed accordingly. Approximately 20% of pain in cancer patients may be attributed to the effects of surgery, radiothe...

Interval Temporal Logics over infinite intervals are studied. First, the ordinary possible worlds models are extended to infinite possible world models. Accordingly, an axiomatic system is proposed and it has been proved complete. Secondly, infinite intervals are included in a logic over abstract intervals. A corresponding axiomatic system is given and proven to be complete also.

We outline the main elements of what we call polyscopic structuring of information and argue that information needs to be structured accordingly. The principles of polyscopy may both serve as guidelines for creating Topic Maps, and provide orientation for further development of Topic Maps standards and software.

This article introduces mathematical parameters that generalize the frequency distribution of the statistical and spectral model. We show experiments that determine the influence of these parameters on the intensity fluctuations of the synthesized noise, accordingly to the theory developed by psycho-acoustic works. The main goal of these experiments is to be able to analyse and synthesize bands...

The availability of kinase and other small-molecule inhibitors to treat hematologic malignancies is increasing. Accordingly, novel regimens that employ these therapeutics are rapidly evolving. Herein we report the safe and effective administration of two targeted kinase inhibitors in a patient with concomitant chronic myelogenous leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
