The article presents the results of research on impact feeding marine reciprocating internal combustion engines with blends diesel fuel and n-butanol their performance parameters. study includes a plan empirical results, in which engine efficiency emissions harmful compounds exhaust gases were determined. indicates that it is resonable to use containing n-butanol. N-butanol positively affect co...

“Umbrella samplmg” has been incorporated in the thermodynamic integration method to obtain a potential of mean force by slow growth molecular-dynamics simulations. The method was tested for liquid argon, for which good agreement was obtained with a standard potential of mean force, as derived from the radial pair-correlation function. For a sodium chloride ion-pair in aqueous solution the calcu...

A retrospective survey of 658 consecutive deliveries in Aberdeen Maternity Hospital in 1970 showed that fetal distress, low Apgar score at five minutes, and special nursery admission were all common in patients receiving oxytocin infusion. Many patients receiving such infusions also had very frequent contractions when compared with others. Though the populations in each group were not standard,...

The complexity of linear programming is discussed in the "integer" and "real number" models of computation. Even though the integer model is widely used in theoretical computer science, the real number model is more useful for estimating an algorithm's running time in actual computation. Although the ellipsoid algorithm is a polynomial-time algorithm in the integer model, we prove that it has u...

This paper reports some trials on mechanical translation from English to Japanese through a case structure constructed on Hornby~s verb patterns. Though the general theoryof case structures is still at the beginning of study, it provides partial sentential patterns with rough but resonable classification labels. After determination of schematic dependency relations, multi-vocal problems for cho...

The Wisconsin Collaborative for Healthcare Quality demonstrated that seven hospitals, six multi-specialty physician groups, four health plans and nine employers from across the state can agree upon goals and work collaboratively to achieve them. Together they created: A public/private partnership to define common measures of health care quality that make sense to purchasers/consumers. A report ...
