introduction: non-uniformity test is essentially the only required daily qc procedure in nuclear medicine practice. noise creates statistical variation or random error in a flood image. non-uniformity on the other hand does not have statistical nature and may be regarded as systemic error. the present methods of non-uniformity calculation do not distinguish between these two types of error. the...

Estimation of flood magnitude for a given recurrence interval T (T-year flood) at a specific location is needed for design of hydraulic and civil infrastructure facilities. A key step in the estimation or flood frequency analysis (FFA) is the selection of a suitable distribution. More than one distribution is often found to be adequate for FFA on a given watershed and choosing the best one is o...

A two-component fully automated flood monitoring system is described and evaluated. This is a result of combining two individual flood services that are currently under development at DLR’s (German Aerospace Center) Center for Satellite based Crisis Information (ZKI) to rapidly support disaster management activities. A first-phase monitoring component of the system systematically detects potent...

hydrothermal treatment of wood material products with many interesting properties such as enhanced dimensional stability, lower equilibrium moisture content and increased biological durability. the effects of hydrothermal treatment on dimensional stability, oven dry density and water absorption of beech wood (fagus orientalis) naturally grown, has been studied in present research that extremely...
