“Go ahead, take your shoes off and walk toward the beach. This way head won't heat up along path.” Kai begins to walk. Sol had been wandering for months in a speculative postnatural expedition when she met him on littoral of Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. They could see mountains horizon from accidented landscape. As they what Palomino village, planty growths burst light as pronounces seem be th...

Born in the 19th century, comics is a visual medium used to express ideas via images, often combined with text or visual information. It is considered as a sequential art, spread worldwide initially using newspapers, books and magazines. Nowadays, the development of the new technologies and the World Wide Web is giving birth to a new form of paperless comics that takes advantage of the virtual ...

Lexicat Grammars are a class of unification grammars which share a fixed rule component, for which there exists a simple left-recursion elimination transformation. The parsing and generation programs ale seen as two dual non-left-recursive versions of the original grammar, and are implemented through a standard top-down Prolog interpreter. Formal criteria for termination are given as conditions...

Radio frequency (RF) interference and gradient induced eddy currents have been a major challenge in building a simultaneous PET/MRI system, a new carbon fiber composite material is found to be a good RF shield while introducing negligible gradient eddy currents. It also provides excellent structural support for the PET detector components. This material is therefore promising for the design of ...

A comparative investigation of the mammalian diaphragm has revealed a correlation between certain cytological aspects of red and white muscle fibers and functional activity. This skeletal muscle presents the advantage of a similar and constant function among the mammals, but its functional activity varies in a quantitative manner. Both the rate of breathing (and hence the rate of contraction of...

Composites formed by infiltration of 45 wt % La0.3Sr0.7TiO3 (LST) into 65% porous yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) were examined for application as solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) anodes. Although LST does not react with YSZ, the structure of the LST deposits was strongly affected by the calcination temperature. At 1373 K, the LST formed loosely packed, 0.1 μm particles that filled the YSZ pores. ...
