the present paper deals with the results of the foresight analysis concerning the development of energy technologies in upper silesia. twelve experts representing science, industry and independent authoritieswere involved in these investigations. upper silesia is a specific region in poland, characterized by coal energy technologies. as 9 result of steep and swot analyses several scenarios of e...

Racket’s syntax parameters support the hygienic implementation of syntactic forms that would otherwise introduce implicit identifiers unhygienically.

It is well known that every uniquely clean ring is strongly clean. In this paper, we investigate the question of when this result holds element-wise. We first construct an example showing that uniquely clean elements need not be strongly clean. However, in case every corner ring is clean the uniquely clean elements are strongly clean. Further, we classify the set of uniquely clean elements for ...

We show that an ambiguity in setting the primitives of the matching with contracts model by Hatfield and Milgrom (2005) has serious implications for the model. Of the two ways to clear the ambiguity, the first (and what we consider more “clean”) remedy renders several of the results of the paper invalid in the absence of an additional irrelevance of removed contracts condition implicitly assume...

Let $a, b, k,in K$ and $u, v in U(K)$. We show for any idempotent $ein K$, $(a 0|b 0)$ is e-clean iff $(a 0|u(vb + ka) 0)$ is e-clean and if $(a 0|b 0)$ is 0-clean, $(ua 0|u(vb + ka) 0)$ is too.

Materials & Methods: A retrospective review of all girls that underwent CPRE from December 1998 through September 2016 from a single institution was performed. Operative age and weight, type of pelvic immobilization, use of pelvic osteotomies, imaging, clinical course, and need for additional surgical procedures were recorded. Patients were deemed in retention if their clinical course was consi...

In this paper, a method for through-wall human detection based on the singular values decomposition of the measurement matrices is presented. After demonstrating the sparsity of the matrices using CLEAN algorithm, an SVD algorithm based on Lanczos process is applied to compute their singular values. We also analyze the singular values of matrices constructed by difference square techniques for ...

This paper proposes an investigation of propagation behaviour of Ultra–Wide Bandwidth (UWB) signals in outdoor environments. Specifically, we first report on the results of an extensive measurement campaign that we have carried out in three selected scenarios, namely “forest”, “hilly” and “sub– urban” environments. Then, we present the statistical model that we have derived after post–processin...
