J. Hempel’s definition of the distance of a Heegaard surface generalizes to a complexity for a knot which is in bridge position with respect to a Heegaard surface. Our main result is that the distance of a knot in bridge position is bounded above by twice the genus, plus the number of boundary components, of an essential surface in the knot complement. As a consequence knots constructed via suf...

In the Bridge River mining camp the federal-provincial aeromagnetic maps, Tyaughton Lake (92Ji15) and Bridge River (92Ji16). at 1:63 360 scale, provide a ready base for analysis. Regional geological control is provided by current mapping and by the Geological Survey Branch (Open File Map 1987I I , Geology o j rhe Gold Bridge Area) and previous work by Leech (1953). Roddick and Hutchinson (1973)...

We provide two approaches for explaining inconsistency in multi-context systems, where decentralized and heterogeneous system parts interact via nonmonotonic bridge rules. Inconsistencies arise easily in such scenarios, and nonmonotonicity calls for specific methods of inconsistency analysis. Both our approaches characterize inconsistency in terms of involved bridge rules: either by pointing ou...

Interoperability between ontologies is currently enabled by abstractions that standardize or bridge their compositional elements. This paper describes how geometric form will beions that standardize or bridge their compositional elements. This paper describes how geometric form will be used as a more flexible ontological abstraction, one that is capable of not only tolerating heterogeneity, but...

For analyzing the mechanism of energy transduction in the "motor" protein, myosin, it is opportune both to model the structural change in the hydrolytic transition, ATP (myosin-bound) + H2O --> ADP.Pi (myosin-bound) and to check the plausibility of the model by appropriate site-directed mutations in the functional system. Here, we made a series of mutations to investigate the role of the salt-b...

background: quality management is one of the most effective strategies for improving the health systems performance in developed and developing countries. the main goal of this study was identifying the most important aspects of quality management and preparing an appropriate model for health system. method: this research was a comparative study on quality management models in the health system...

The number of bridges in operation has increased. Along with the increase length time are service, structural safety also decreases. Bridge substructure is a key component bridges, but there few studies on management and identification water bridge damage. Deep learning focus research field target detection, this document lightens YOLO-v4 to achieve precise intelligent determination concrete cr...

Com mercial stat ic strain indicators and signal conditioners vary considerably in their circuit details; and, although most of them are based upon some form of the Wheatstone bridge circuit, the bridge circuit is employed in differing ways in different instruments. Because of the many variations in instrument design, a completely general treatment of instrument nonlinearities is not practicabl...
