Over the past four years (1360-1364) we have surgically treated seven infants for lobar emphysema. The pathologic lesion in all patients was in upper lobe of the left lung. Respiratory distress and pneumonia are the cardinal symptoms of patients with this abnormality. Diagnosis is confirmed by chest x-ray. The treatment of choice is lobectomy of affected lobe. 

The current estimates and glass formulation efforts have been conservative in terms of achievable waste loadings. These formulations have been specified to ensure that the glasses are homogenous, contain essentially no crystalline phases, are processable in joule-heated, ceramic-lined melters and meet Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) Contract terms. The WTP’s overall ...

In process industries, control of liquid level in the process tank is important and complicated issues. In this work, authors have represented a case study involving mathematical modeling, system identification, and controller design of a three tank conical interacting level system (TTCILS). A nonlinear tank is identified mathematically and an auto tuning method of PID controller is implemented...

Ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA) is a contagious and transmissible lung cancer of sheepresembling human bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma. In the present study, lungs of 9400 sheep slaughtered inFars province, Iran were examined morphopathologically. The OPA was diagnosed in the lungs of 21(0.22%) out of 9400 sheep. Frequency of involvement of different lobes in the affected lungs was includeda...

The longitudinal optical conductivity is the most important property for graphene-baseddevices. So investigating this property for spatially separated few-layer graphene systems analytically and numerically is the main purpose of our study. Each layer can be mono- or bi-layer graphene. The density-density correlation function has been screened by the dielectric function using the random p...

Due to the increasing use of digital medical images, a need exists to develop an approach for automatic image annotation, which provides textual labels for images. Thus added labels can be used to access images using textual queries. Automatic image annotation can be separated into two individual tasks: feature extraction and image classification. In this paper, the authors present feature extr...

fuzzy bi-ideals play an important role in the study of ordered semigroupstructures. the purpose of this paper is to initiate and study theintiuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideals in ordered semigroups and investigate thebasic theorem of intuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideals. to provide thecharacterizations of regular ordered semigroups in terms of intuitionisticfuzzy bi-ideals and to discuss the relationships ...

In this paper, a method based on binary-coded genetic algorithm is proposed to explore an optimization method, for obtaining an optimal elliptical tank. This optimization method enhances the rollover threshold of a tank vehicle, especially under partial filling conditions. Minimizing the overturning moment imposed on the vehicle due to c.g. height of the liquid load, lateral acceleration and ca...

Background: Epilepsy is considered as one of the most important disorders in neurology. Temporal lobe epilepsy is a form of epilepsy including two main types of mesial and lateral (neocortex). Objectives: Determination and comparison of electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern in the ictal and interictal phases of mesial and lateral temporal lobe epilepsy. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectiona...

Abstrakt Konečno-stavový automat je formalizmus, ktorý je schopný do veľkej miery modelovať činnosť robotického systému. Ba, činnosť robotického systému možno pomocou stavových automatov priamo riadiť: riadiaci systém robota môže tvoriť jeden alebo viacero stavových automatov, presnejšie transducerov, kde prechody medzi stavmi generujú akcie. Bolo ukázané, že stavové automaty ako riadiaci systé...
