Infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic analysis of eight structural isomers of C20 carbon nanostructures, i.e. ring, tadpole, bow-tie, dumb-bell, spiro, propellane, bowl and cage, were performed at different levels of theory including semi-empirical (AM1 and PM3), Hartree-Fock (HF/6-31++G, 6-31++G**) and density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31++G, 6-31++G**). A broad range of IR spectra...

Dizziness is the quintessential symptom presentation in all of clinical medicine. It can stem from a disturbance in nearly any system of the body. Patient descriptions of the symptom are often vague and inconsistent, so careful probing is essential. The physical examination is performed by observing the patient at rest and following simple movements or bedside tests. In general, no special tool...

Order picking is a labour-intensive operation and so it represents significant costs, with any underperformance leading to high operational cost for the whole supply chain. Hence, the objective of the present work is to assess and restructure the storage assignment in the picking area and the order picking process (namely the routing method) in order to enhance the order picking process of Luis...

Nowadays in agriculture the labour work is very important. This paper is proposed to reduce the labour work in fruit picking by using the image clustering algorithm in a machine vision system. For plucking fruits such as citrus, apple, jujube, etc., so many different classification techniques were proposed. This paper focus on the automatic detection of the pomegranate fruits in an orchard. The...
