Investigations into long-term geomagnetic variations provide useful information regarding paleomagnetic field behavior. In this study, we assess the latitudinal structure of paleosecular variation (PSV) and time-averaged (TAF) for Brunhes normal Matuyama reverse chrons, 0–10 Ma period, from an updated reviewed paleodirectional database spanning past 10 Myr. The new comprises 2,543 sites igneous...

BACKGROUND Advanced decision-support capabilities for prehospital trauma care may prove effective at improving patient care. Such functionality would be possible if an analysis platform were connected to a transport vital-signs monitor. In practice, there are technical challenges to implementing such a system. Not only must each individual component be reliable, but, in addition, the connectivi...

The aim of this study was to examine the influence electrostatic fields on seed vigor, mean rate germination and coefficient velocity five soybean genotypes. Testing conducted at Novi Sad Institute Field Vegetable Crops seeds varieties: Sava, NS 2024, 1347, 3127, Blackstar. were exposed different values direct current (DC) following voltage: 0 V (control), 3 V, 6 9 which for min 1 min. After ex...

Escapes from manufacturing test: A large system built out of well-tested components can still have a significant probability of failure due to test escapes. Unfortunately field testing is unlikely to detect such failures because manufacturing tests, carried out on individual parts and on assembled (sub)systems, are far more comprehensive. Indeed, any proposed field test can be applied as part o...

PURPOSE To study the quality of the visual field areas that were regained after training. In those areas, we measured some of the elementary visual properties that make up the quality of visual functioning in daily-life. This was to provide information about whether the functional visual field had been enlarged. METHODS Patients with visual field defects after a CVA were trained to detect sti...

Although there is a considerable literature about the factors that affect the innovation process, little is known concerning the factors that affect the IT innovation process. Thus, this exploratory study drawns upon theories such as: Woodman ́s model, Bandura ́s self-efficacy theory, the goal orientation theory, Vroom ́s expectancy theory and the theory of trying to propose an integrative underst...

Over the last years the scholarly literature on careers has been enriched by the proposal of new career models which present a rhetoric that asks for the end of career boundaries: individual, hierarchical, organizational and geographical. However, in the real world, many constrains continue to exist. This paper tries to contribute to the understanding of the new boundaries of the 21 century car...

This research deals with perception of information and advertisement screens mounted in public transport vehicles. We have conducted an exploratory field study with 106 participants. Our main research question was aimed at finding out to what extent people do look at such screens and for how long they fixate them. Further we investigated correlations between content type and the amount of focus...

The introduction of the standard IEC 61850 for communication in power systems enables to build enhanced Substation Automation (SA) systems and to distribute requested functionalities in an optimal and standardized way. This brings new challenges and opportunities related to interoperability between compliant IEDs and tools as well as for testing and maintenance processes. The complete sequence ...
