A ventilation simulator is implemented in android mobile devices to simulate the mechanics of the human lung. The simulation results shall be displayed by a dynamic plot to illustrate the trend of the ventilation parameters in real-time. The chosen software library to perform the plots is AndrodPlot [1]. The library provides basic features and tutorials for dynamic plotting. Tests were performe...

Creating plots in TEX is made easy by the pgfplots package, but getting the best presentation of experimental results still requires some thought. In this article, the basics of pgfplots are reviewed before looking at how to adjust the standard settings to give both good looking and scientifically precise plots.

90Sr activity was measured with the full spectrum DPM (FS-DPM) counting method after plotting the quench correction curves of 90Sr and 90Y, and the FS-DPM method was applied to determine the 90Sr in liquid waste samples. The optimum regions of 90Sr and 90Y were set for measuring 90Sr with the dual label DPM (DL-DPM) method. The direct measurement of purified 90Sr with spectrum unfolding techniq...

Conventional plotting programs adopt techniques such as adaptive sampling to approximate , but not to guarantee, correctness and completeness in graphing functions. Moreover, implicitly deened mathematical relations can impose an even greater challenge as they either cannot be plotted directly, or otherwise are likely to be misrepresented. In this paper, we address these problems by investigati...

Steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) columns, which are classified as composite columns, became the most widely used in recent years; because of their extensive advantages over the reinforced concrete and the steel columns. In this paper, the ductility index and its influential factors were explored to investigate the behavior of SRC columns. A straightforward approach was then proposed by establish...

We thank Dr. Stern (1) for his interest in our work (2). We agree that risk distribution curves are a valuable addition in the assessment of risk prediction models, particularly in the interpretation of reclassification measures. Two identical risk distribution curves that differ in location reflect models with different calibration, and 2 risk distribution curves that differ in dispersion refl...

Deregulation policy has caused some changes in the concepts of power system reliability assessment. This paper deals with generation reliability evaluation in perfect competition power market using market economic concepts and its dynamic. Also, because of power markets and generators’ forced outages stochastic behavior, Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) is used in this research. Generation reliabil...
