BACKGROUND Sensory stimuli evoke responses in cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) via the mossy fiber-granule cell pathway. However, the properties of synaptic responses evoked by tactile stimulation in cerebellar PCs are unknown. The present study investigated the synaptic responses of PCs in response to an air-puff stimulation on the ipsilateral whisker pad in urethane-anesthetized mice. METHOD...

The purpose of this study is the fabrication and performance evaluation a new type solar humidification–dehumidification (HD) desalination unit to supply sufficient fresh water for seawater greenhouse in MAKRAN coast southeast Iran. In proposed design, particular air-to-air condenser used. cold air coming out ventilation system (fan pad) summer ambient winter used required cooling system. way, ...

Objective: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a state characterized by atherosclerotic occlusive disease of lower extremities. Diabetes is the main risk factor for PAD. Material and Methods: To assess the prevalence of PAD, a cross sectional study was performed on 352 diabetic patients who referred to Yazd diabetes research center from 2007 to 2010. Vascular assessment was done by measuring ...

In this paper, we use computer vision as a feedback sensor in a control loop for landing an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) on a landing pad. The vision problem we address here is then a special case of the classic ego-motion estimation problem since all feature points lie on a planar surface (the landing pad). We study together the discrete and differential versions of the ego-motion estimation, in...

This paper discusses ultra-fine-pitch bonding on a 50-μm bond-pad-pitch platform using φ23-μm gold wire. A technique for the bonding process and the bonding tool design was developed using the finite element method. It was possible to simulate and analyze the variation in the plastic deformation of ball bond when it was subjected to different loading conditions and capillary configurations. The...

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan kondisi udara masuk terhadap keluaran air cooler. Selain itu juga mendapatkan nilai efektivitas rata Suhu divariasikan, tetapi memiliki kelembapan spesifik w yang sama. Proses penurunan suhu udara, terjadi pada saat melewati beberapa cooling pad permukaannya dialiri air. pendinginan diasumsikan berjalan secara evaporative cooling. dilakukan eksper...

An improved method is described for the quantification of primary sugars, sugar alcohols and anhydrosugars in atmospheric aerosols, making use of separation by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD). Quartz fibre filters from high-volume samplers were extracted with water and the extract injected directly. Repeatability is typically 4% RS...
