Daily tetanic stimulation of the Schaffer collaterals generates an epileptogenic focus in area CA1 of the rat hippocampus, ultimately leading to generalized tonic-clonic convulsions (kindling). Potassium currents were measured under voltage-clamp conditions in pyramidal neurons, acutely dissociated from the focus of fully kindled rats, one day and six weeks after the last generalized seizure. T...

In this paper, linear discrete-time systems with white stochastic parameters are considered. Most results on the optimal state estimation of linear discrete time systems with stochastic parameters rely strongly on the generalization of the one step prediction type Kalman filter to this type of systems. But it has been shown that the current output observer results in less estimation error as co...

These results generalize...

In this paper, we consider a form of the generalized logistic distribution named symmetric extended generalized logistic distribution or extended type III generalized logistic distribution. The distribution is derived by compounding a two-parameter generalized Gumbel distribution with a two-parameter generalized gamma distribution. The cumulative distribution and some properties of this distrib...

aim and background: in this study we examined the efficacy of unified transdiagnostic treatment in reduction of women with generalized anxiety disorder pathological symptoms. methods and materials: in the present study we used non-congruent multiple baseline experimental single case study design. three women with generalized anxiety disorder (gad) were selected  from patients of tabriz two coun...

In this paper, based on the switching cell approach, a unified steady state analysis for families of soft-switching dc–dc converters with complete unified design equations will be presented. The concept of the unified approach and step by step procedure for a generalized process are discussed and applied to selected soft-switching families such as zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) and zero-current-s...

The current paper critically reviews the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) and Good Lives Model (GLM) approaches to correctional treatment. Research, or the lack thereof, is discussed in terms of whether there is a need for a new model of offender rehabilitation. We argue that although there is a wealth of research in support of RNR approaches, there is presently very little available research demon...

In this study, a new second order all-pass filter is synthesized in the square-root domain by using the statespace method. The proposed second order all-pass filter is constituted by current mirrors, current sources, currentmode square-root circuits and capacitors. The pole frequency of the filter can be tuned electronically by varying the values of the current sources of this circuit. The filt...

Estimates of the global ocean vertical velocities (Eulerian, eddy-induced, and residual) from a dynamically consistent and data-constrained ocean state estimate are presented and analyzed. Conventional patterns of vertical velocity, Ekman pumping, appear in the upper ocean, with topographic dominance at depth. Intense and vertically coherent upwelling and downwelling occur in the Southern Ocean...

A compensation method for the sensitivity drift of a magnetoresistive (MR) Wheatstone bridge current sensor is proposed. The technique was carried out by placing a ruthenium temperature sensor and the MR sensor to be compensated inside a generalized impedance converter circuit (GIC). No internal modification of the sensor bridge arms is required so that the circuit is capable of compensating pr...
