The effects of lobe tip design parameters on compressor performance were evaluated by utilizing a computer simulation package and taking SRM-D asymmetric type rotor profile as an example. The result suggests that the requirements for high efficiency, large capacity, low inter-rotor contact force and low viscous friction loss do not always lead to the use of the same lobe tip designs. Of all the...

In this section, we consider the case where the supplier has a capacity of K units that he can sell throughout N -periods. Let QN correspond to the total production quantity of an N -period uncapacitated game. For the N -period limited capacity case, when the capacity is “tight,” i.e., CS ≤ a 4b , or when the capacity is “abundant,” i.e., CS ≥ QN , the results are straightforward and intuitive....

The previous discussion [1] on reducing the phase space of the first order Einstein gravity in 2+1 dimensions is reconsidered. We construct a “correct” physical phase space in the case of positive cosmological constant, taking into account the geometrical feature of SO(3,1) connections. A parametrization which unifies the two sectors of the physical phase space is also given. ∗e-mail address: e...

Brief Reports are accounts of completed research which do not warrant regular articles or the priority handling given to Rapid Communications; however, the same standards of scientific quality apply. (Addenda are included in Brief Reports.) A Brief Report may be no longer than four printed pages and must be accompanied by an abstract. The same publication schedule as for regular articles is fol...

[This corrects the article on p. 30 in vol. 4, PMID: 27148525.].

A few corrections and comments are made upon a previously published paper, on the subject of cosmological models with compact spatial sections.

Some comments and clarifications are made to the author’s paper [1]. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 03F50, 03C62, 03E70, 03E40 (primary)

The purpose of this technical report is to discuss two additional aspects of automatic lyrics retrieval as described in “Multiple Lyrics Alignment: Automatic Retrieval of Song Lyrics” by Knees et al., 2005. The first aspect is the introduction of a confidence measure to estimate the quality of the generated output. The second aspect deals with the automatic formatting of generated lyrics to pre...
