Atypical femoral fractures – comorbidities and association with bone-specific therapies. Introduction: Although atypical femoral fractures (AFF) are generally rare events, several studies have indicated a potential link between AFF and long-term bone specific therapies (BST). The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of AFF and potential associations with prior or ongoing BST. Methods:...

This thesis primarily describes performance and decision heuristics of human operators intervention with an autonomous formation flight (AFF) system during monitoring of a station-keeping display. Due to mental and physical workloads, automation technologies have been applied to formation flight for precise station-keeping and resultant fuel reduction, shifting control authority from humans to ...

We construct the finite dimensional simple integral modules for the (degenerate) affine Hecke-Clifford algebra (AHCA), H aff Cℓ (d). Our construction includes an analogue of Zelevin-sky's segment representations, a complete combinatorial description of the simple calibrated H aff Cℓ (d)-modules, and a classification of the simple integral H aff Cℓ (d)-modules. Our main tool is an analogue of th...

تحلیل وضعیت ترافیکی و پیشنهاد روش‌های مدیریت جریان ترافیک نقش اساسی در ارزیابی عملکرد بسیاری از سیستم‌های حمل‌ونقلی ایفا می‌کند. بین جمع‌آوری داده‌های ترافیکی، رویکردهای مبتنی‌بر فنّاوری‌های نوین که امکان گرد‌آوری حجم پویای زمانی‌ـ مکانی را فراهم می‌آورند استخراج روندها الگوها تسهیل می‌کنند اهمیت دارند. این پژوهش، تهران به‌منزلة پایتخت ایران، با ویژگی‌های اقتصادی اجتماعی خاصی دارد تنوع سفرها به ...

هدف: کبد از حساس‌ترین بافت‌های هدف فشار اکسایشی ناشی تمرین می‌باشد و آمینوترانسفراز‌های کبدی، شاخص‌های حساسی برای تعیین آسیب دیدگی سلول‌های کبدی هستند. پژوهش حاضر با مقایسه تأثیر هشت هفته TRX مقاومتی سنتی بر برخی آنزیم‌های (آسپارتات آمینو ترانسفراز آلانین ترانسفراز) در زنان غیرفعال انجام گرفت.روش ­ها: این که به روش نیمه تجربی شد، 28 دختر میانگین سن41/1±07/21 سال شاخص توده بدن 25/4±52/22 کیلوگرم...

Kernel-risk-sensitive loss (KRSL) achieves an efficient performance surface, which has been applied in the kernel adaptive filters (KAFs) successfully. However, KRSL based KAFs use stochastic gradient descent (SGD) method optimization, usually suffer from inadequate accuracy with slow convergence speed. In this letter, conjugate is adopted optimization of function, and problem non-convexity add...

This paper describes the Advanced Forensic Format (AFF), which is designed as an alternative to current proprietary disk image formats. AFF offers two significant benefits. First, it is more flexible because it allows extensive metadata to be stored with images. Second, AFF images consume less disk space than images in other formats (e.g., EnCase images). This paper also describes the Advanced ...

The hypothesis that O(2)(.-) enhances angiotensin II (AngII)-induced vasoconstriction and impairs acetylcholine-induced vasodilation of afferent arterioles (Aff) in AngII-induced hypertension was investigated. Rabbits (n = 6 per group) received 12 to 14 d of 0.154 M NaCl (Sham), subpressor AngII (60 ng/kg per min; AngII 60) or slow pressor AngII (200 ng/kg per min; AngII 200). Individual Aff we...
