purpose accurate measurement or prediction of fat mass is useful in physiology, nutrition and clinical medicine. most predictive equations currently used to assess percentage of body fat or fat mass, using simple anthropometric measurements were derived from people in western societies and they may not be appropriate for individuals with other genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. we develo...

in order to compare the effects of different weaning strategies on feed intake, structural growth measurement and health, blood metabolites and economic efficiency of young dairy calves, twenty four female holstein calves were used. calves after birth were randomly assigned into one of three weaning strategy as follow: 1) weaning based on feed intake, 2) weaning based on weight gain (30 kg weig...

PurposeLung weight gain during ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) can reduce transplant suitability. Therefore, real-time measurement enhance donor evaluation. We sought to 1) develop/validate a EVLP system, and 2) define the time course of change EVLP.MethodsIn our clinical acellular from 6/2019-9/2020, was measured in 36 cases. Weights were recorded with scale under organ chamber, back table stati...

Abstract: One of basic principle of any organization is to assure about obtained figures from measuring products. If the measured data was not trusted, will be lead to a wrong decisions regarding the approval or rejection of products and obviously the cost would be great. First cases in measurement systems analysis which crossing minds are criteria for approval or rejection any mea...

In this essay, an optical arrangement for the measurement of dynamic weight, by means of conducting a thin ray of light through it, is designed in order to enhance the measuring accuracy in the weight-estimation device. In this arrangement, CCD is responsible for producing raw data for processing. An arti cial neural network type, RBF, is also used to improve the quality and speed of the measur...

To obtain higher economic benefits, large eel breeding companies classify live eels by weight. Due to their strong mobility and smooth body surface, living are not suitable for traditional mechanical weight measurement. In this study, a sorting machine based on vision was developed, novel method developed obtaining measurements through images. First, backlit workbench designed capture static im...

introduction: balanced scorecard (bsc) is regarded as one of the successful tools in performance measurement. however, it neither absolutely nor comparatively provides the weight of each perspective and indicators related to each perspective. in this study, we applied a fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (fahp) to weight the perspectives and bsc indicators in hospital. methods: this applied, de...
