The sixth section, Standardisation of Diagnostic Techniques, deals more specifically with epidemiological method, although these papers are each illustrated by reference to research carried out by their authors. Professor G. M. Carstairs' paper on "Standardisation of psychiatric judgements," regrettably the only contribution in the book that is concerned with the growing field of psychiatric ep...

We consider the gravity in the system consisting of the Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) D3-brane embedded in the flat background geometry, produced by the solutions of the supergravity. The effective action for this system is represented by the sum of the Hilbert-Einstein and DBI actions. We derive the Wheeler-De Witt equation for this system and obtain analytical solutions in some special...

We discuss a quantum extension of the holographic RG flow equation obtained previously from the classical Hamiltonian constraint in the bulk AdS supergravity. The WheelerDeWitt equation is proposed to generate the extended RG flow and to produce 1/N subleading corrections systematically. Our formulation in five dimensions is applied to the derivation of the Weyl anomaly of boundary N = 4 SU(N) ...

We investigate certain properties of the Wheeler-DeWitt metric (for constant lapse) in canonical General Realtivity associated with its non-definite nature.

because of high strength to weight ratio, 6061 aluminum has many applications in different industries like automotive and aerospace industries and can help to reduction of fuel consumption. forming limit diagram (fld) is a useful method for sheet metal formability identification. whereas calculation of forming limit diagram by experimental tests is expensive and time consumption, in the present...

Electric vehicles are becoming popular among consumers while BS-VI norms have been introduced and mandated for conventional in India. In the present study, environmental impacts from use phase of electric two-wheeler (EV) gasoline (GV) evaluated compared using life cycle assessment (LCA) perspective. The functional unit adopted was 1000 km driven by one vehicle under Indian road traffic conditi...

Silvio Berlusconi is uniquely successful as a political entrepreneur, but that does not mean he is unique. Others have trod that path as well, albeit with lesser success. This paper looks at why others have failed where Berlusconi succeeded in order better to understand the secrets of that success. The conclusion is that Berlusconi needed to progress on many fronts at the same time – opportunis...
