objective(s):  denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (dhplc) is a high throughput approach for screening dna sequence variations. to assess oven calibration, cartridge performance, buffer composition and stability, the wave low and high range mutation standards are employed to ensure reproducibility and accuracy of the chromatographic analysis. the purpose of this study was to provi...

This paper presents a new method for improving the assessment of energy and resources of waves in the cases of finite water depths in which the historical and some ongoing sea wave measurements are simply given in forms of scatter diagrams or the forms of (significant) wave heights and the relevant statistical wave periods, whilst the detailed spectrum information has been discarded, thus no lo...

Multiple earthquakes have been felt in high-rise buildings Bangkok despite the epicenters being far away. Seismic wave recordings basin show a low-frequency peak. This study uses horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) analysis and array of ambient vibration data to find predominant period ground shear velocity profiles at five sites Bangkok. The accuracy accelerometer used for recording w...

ERGs were recorded to red flashes (0.01-50 phcdsm(2)) presented against a steady background (2000 sctd) or 0-300 ms after its suppression. The cone a-wave was altered in form and increased in amplitude in the dark. Peak amplitudes were doubled when the dark period was 50-100 ms and also when it was 150-200 ms. Measurement of the a-wave at fixed times showed that amplitude increase occurred at t...

Modeled nearshore wave propagation was investigated downstream of simulated wave energy converters (WECs) to evaluate overall nearand far-field effects of WEC arrays. Model sensitivity to WEC characteristics and WEC array deployment scenarios was evaluated using a modified version of an industry standard wave model, Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN), which allows the incorporation of device-spe...

the purpose of this research is to analyze heat waves characteristics in the warm period of the year as a climatic hazard in iran. in this study, the daily maximum temperature is taken at 44 synoptic stations during the period 1981-2010. these temperature values were used to extract the intensity, frequency and duration of heat waves using percentile thresholds of 90, 95, and 98. the results sh...

Long-period surface waves recorded on the north-south Pasadena strainmeter are used to determine the seismic moments and fault parameters of the 19 May 1940 Imperial Valley, California, the 16 December 1954 Dixie Valley and Fairview Peak, Nevada, and the 18 August 1959 Hebgen Lake, Montana, earthquakes. Synthetic strain seismograms are matched with the observed strainmeter seismograms. Source p...

Introduction The onset of ventricular depolarization defines the start of the pre-ejection period (PEP), which is commonly used as an index of myocardial contractility. Although the fiducial point for this onset has traditionally been the onset of the Q wave of the electrocardiogram (qPEP), the Q wave is not visible in some patients. Therefore, other measurement points have also been used in th...

This paper describes wave directional spreading in shallow water. Waves were measured for a period of 2 months using the Datawell directional waverider buoy at 15 m water depth on the east coast of India in the Bay of Bengal. The study also showed that in shallow water wave directional spreading was narrowest at peak frequency and widened towards lower and higher frequencies. The wind direction...

Recent studies indicate that in patients with muscular subaortic stenosis at rest, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction is associated with severe systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the anterior mitral leaflet and prolonged SAM-septal contact. We correlated the temporal relationships between echocardiographic and hemodynamic events in 18 patients with muscular subaortic stenosis (gradient o...
