An outstanding square slot element, for x-band wireless applications with asymmetric coplanar waveguide fed (CPW) is proposed. Various shapes of metallic strips are utilized as grounded stubs for providing Right Hand Circular Polarization (RHCP) functionality and wide-band properties. By adjusting the proposed stubs and hook-shaped radiator, length and positions, wider impedance band width is o...

Equivalent fields are frequently used for central axis depth-dose calculations of rectangular and irregular shaped photon beam. Since most of the proposed models to calculate the equivalent square field, are dosimetry-based, a simple physical-based method to calculate the equivalent square field size was used as the basis of this study. The table of the sides of the equivalent square for rectan...

Newly developed biphasic waveforms improve defibrillation efficacy both by reduction of defibrillation threshold and by amelioration of shock-induced dysfunction depending on the relative shape of the first and second pulses. Each of these independent effects improves the waveform's safety factor, the ratio between the shock intensity that produces a specific degree of postshock dysfunction and...

We establish the relation between the exact energy of a two particle state in an asymmetric rectangular box with the elastic scattering phase shift of the two particle in the continuum. In particular, we obtain a formula which relates the elastic scattering length with the energy shift of the two particle in an asymmetric box. This can be viewed as a generalization of the corresponding formula ...

A method to compute the acoustic characteristics of a simplified three-dimensional vocal-tract model with asymmetric wall impedances is presented. The acoustic field is represented in terms of both plane waves and higher-order modes in tubes. This model is constructed using a connected structure of rectangular acoustic tubes, and can parametrically represent acoustic characteristics in higher f...

A new type of Chlamydomonas mutant, which lacks the outer dynein arm but can swim, was isolated. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that four of the ten high-molecular-weight bands of dynein present in the wild-type axoneme are missing or diminished in the mutant axoneme. The mutant has a swimming rate of about 35 micrometers/s and a flagellar beat frequency of ab...

This paper outlines a novel approximate solution for determining the pressure drop of laminar, single-phase flow in slowly-varying microchannels of arbitrary cross-section. The proposed analysis is general and applicable to symmetric and asymmetric microchannel cross-sections, as examples compact relationships are reported for elliptical and rectangular shapes for three common wall profiles of ...

A planar antenna with pentagon shaped tuning stub and asymmetric rectangular ground plane width along with wide rectangular aperture is presented for triple band operation. A novel concept of use of feed coupling slot as inherent band-notch at 4 GHz and design of wide rectangular aperture with length and width at λ/4 and λ of WLAN 802.11b and 802.11a resonating frequency respectively with varia...
