The regional evaluation of monitoring stations for water resources can be of great importance due to its role in finding appropriate locations for stations, the maximum gathering of useful information and preventing the accumulation of unnecessary information and ultimately reducing the cost of data collection. Based on the theory of discrete entropy, this study analyzes the density of rain gag...

BACKGROUND Adverse cardiorespiratory health is associated with exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM). The highest PM concentrations in London occur in proximity to waste transfer stations (WTS), sites that experience high numbers of dust-laden, heavy-duty diesel vehicles transporting industrial and household waste. OBJECTIVE Our goal was to quantify the contribution of WTS emissions to ...

The purpose of this work is to evaluate statistically the accuracy of a patient transfer station (PTS, TomoTherapy Inc., Madison, WI) that automatically converts one planning-station-generated treatment plan to another one with a different beam model. In our department we have installed 2 HI*ART tomotherapy systems, and patients often need to be transferred from one tomotherapy unit to the othe...

This report describes the design, construction and test results of an inductively coupled battery charger for robot power supplies. The system should be capable of charging several robot batteries at once from a contactless charging station. The charger should be capable of providing different charging conditions to several different kinds of battery at once. The system should be capable of cha...

In personal communication systems based on Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), voice is transported as compressed low bit rate information between network elements. Due to cost eeciency, future implementations of CDMA networks likely will utilize the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology to connect components of the land network infrastructure. This paper discusses the capability of usi...

Service capability and matching degree of transfer facilities are directly related to the operational efficiency and safety of a subway station. Owing to differences in planning and construction, the transfer subway stations in developing countries have some defects in facility size and serviceability, which cause a decline in service performance, operation efficiency, and security level. In or...

Now a days managing train movement between stations in railways has become staggering task which involve human efforts like data transfer through phone. It is needed to be continuously monitor the trains approaching from neighboring stations, for safe train movement due to high density of trains on a track. Conventionally, station master monitor approaching /departing trains by using Route Rela...

We performed an immunocytochemical analysis to study the transfer of a marker protein (G glycoprotein coded by vesicular stomatitis virus ts 045 strain) from the intermediate compartment to the Golgi stacks in infected Vero cells. The intermediate compartment seemed to consist of about 30-40 separate units of clustered small vesicles and short tubules. The units contained Rab2 protein and were ...

One would really think that the object now-a-days in the Army is to make the Medical Department as unpopular as possible, and to dishearten, to use a mild term, those who already belong to that service. The manner in which leave has been lately suddenly cancelled, and junior officers ordered hither and thither on very short notice, compels us to say so. We have recently heard of the transfer of...

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS), with its aptitude for quick recovery and minimal scarring, has revolutionized surgery over the past few years. As a result, the development of a VR-based surgical trainer for MIS has been a popular area of research. However, there still remains a fundamental question of how realistic the simulation has to be for effective training. On the one hand, learning sur...
