We sought to identify the appropriate exercise intensity for unbiased comparisons of changes in rectal temperature (ΔTre) and local sweat rates (LSR) between groups unmatched for body size during uncompensable heat stress. Sixteen males vastly different in body morphology were separated into two equal groups [small (SM): 65.8 ± 6.2 kg, 1.8 ± 0.1 m2; large (LG): 100.0 ± 13.1 kg, 2.3 ± 0.1 m2], b...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Coronary collateral circulation (CCC) has been attributed as inborn bypass mechanisms supporting ischemic myocardium. Various factors have been postulated in CCC. Whole blood viscosity (WBV) has been an underappreciated entity despite close relationships between multiple cardiovascular diseases. WBV can be calculated with a validated equation from hematocrit and total ...

Elephant grass plays important role in dairy cattle production and has received special attention due to its potential bioenergy phytoremediation, as well medicinal properties. The aim was investigating the effects of thermotherapy meristem culture on elephant (Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone) forage nutritional value. Cultivars “Mineiro”, “Taiwan A-147” “Pioneiro” were subjected methods...

in the present investigation, for the first time in iran, dewatered sludge waste from air heater washing wastewater treatment of a thermal power plant was subjected to investigation of the cement base stabilization and solidification experiments in order to reduce the mobility of heavy and other hazardous metals as well as increasing the compressive strength of the solidified product for possib...

This paper presents the systems used by CLIPSIMAG laboratory. We participated to shot segmentation and high-level extraction tasks. We focus this year on High-Level Features Extraction task, based on key frames classification. We propose an original and promising framework for incorporating contextual information (from image content) into the concept detection process. The proposed method combi...

This paper presents a novel technique of monitoring laser surface remelting (LSR) via measurements process generated acoustic emission (AE). The LSR conditions include variable power level and an ambient air or argon 5.0 inert gas atmosphere. microstructure microhardness the remelted layer are evaluated. recorded AE signal datasets analysed wavelet decomposition technique. resulting energy prop...
