Rapid advances in optical microfiber and nanofibers (MNF) based sensors have been driven by powerful industries such as automotive, biomedical and defense, with the increasing demand for highly-sensitive, selective, nonintrusive, fast-response, compact and robust sensors that can perform in-situ measurements at remote and harsh environments. A diverse range of MNF based sensors have been develo...

This paper presents findings from a study of five healthy subjects performing 50% maximum voluntary contraction until complete fatigue of the muscle. An overlapping window technique was used to find the values for mean frequency (MNF), median frequency (MDF) of the power spectrum, root mean square (RMS) and muscle fibre conduction velocity (MFCV). The surface electromyography signal (sEMG) was ...

A high-resolution neutron spectroscopic technique is used to measure momentum-resolved magnon lifetimes in the prototypical two- and three-dimensional antiferromagnets Rb(2)MnF(4) and MnF(2), over the full Brillouin zone and a wide range of temperatures. We rederived theories of the lifetime resulting from magnon-magnon scattering, thereby broadening their applicability beyond asymptotically sm...

Weeping love grass (Eragrostis curvula) has become a well-established invasive species along the Kinu River, Japan and is now considered a problematic invasive weed species. The aim of this study was to map the probability of the establishment of this invasive grass in the shore of the Kinu River using airborne hyperspectral imagery. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to model the pro...

Although principal components transformations on remotely sensed multispectral data often produce components that show decreasing image quality with increasing component number, there are numerous examples, especially among aircraft scanner data, where this is not the case. This has led us to define a new trans€ormation, known as the maximum noise fraction (MNF) transformation, which always pro...

In South Korea, a water supply enhancement project is being carried out to preemptively respond drought and loss by reducing pipeline leakages supplying stable tap through the maintenance of an aging network. order reduce leakage, District Metered Area (DMA) was established monitor predict minimum night flow based on data collected from IoT sensors. this study, model Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP...

Residual palm oil that goes into the river untreated can become detrimental to environment. discharge during milling process mill effluent (POME) is unavoidable. About 1 wt% of residual in POME causes major problems mills, terms environment, wastewater treatment and economy losses. This paper reports recovery from by adsorption on polypropylene micro/nanofiber (PP-MNF) desorption hands pressing...

Winged-helix}forkhead proteins regulate developmental events in both invertebrate and vertebrate organisms, but biochemical functions that establish a mechanism of action have been defined for only a few members of this extensive gene family. Here we demonstrate that MNF (myocyte nuclear factor)-β, a wingedhelix protein expressed selectively and transiently in myogenic precursor cells of the he...

Abstract. Gibbs energies of formation of CoF2 and MnF 2 have been measured in the temperature range from 700 to l t00 K using Al203-dispersed CaF 2 solid electrolyte and Ni + NiF2 as the reference electrode. The dispersed solid electrolyte has higher conductivity than pure CaF2 thus permitting accurate measurements at lower temperatures. However, to prevent reaction between A120 3 in the solid ...
