in order to obtain maximum information from magnetic and gravity anomaly maps, application of an edgedetection method is necessary. in this regard two commonly used methods are derivative filters and local phase filters. in this paper, a matlab code is expanded to combine an analytic signal filter and a tilt angle filter as a new edge detection filter called asta filter. this method was demonst...

In this paper, a novel technique for the design of two-channel Quadrature Mirror Filter (QMF) banks with linear phase in frequency domain is presented. To satisfy the exact reconstruction condition of the filter bank, low-pass prototype filter response in pass-band, transition band and stop band is optimized using unconstrained indirect update optimization method. The objective function is form...

BACKGROUND Epidemiological evidence has implicated fine particulate air pollution, particularly particles less than 10 microns in diameter (PM10), in the development of exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) although the mechanism is unknown. The hypothesis that PM10 particles induce oxidant stress, causing inflammation and injury to airway epithelium, was test...

In this paper, a modified auto zeroed integrator is used to design and simulate a low-voltage high-Q switched capacitor pseudo 2-path filter.  The filter is a sixth–order Chebyshev band-pass filter operating at sampling frequency of 1MHz and center frequency of 250 kHz with a quality factor of 50. The proposed filter has both low-voltage and high speed properties of the auto zeroed integrators ...

‎in this paper‎, ‎we introduce the notion of the radical of a $pmv$-algebra $a$ and we charactrize radical $a$ via elements of $a$‎. ‎also‎, ‎we introduce the notion of the radical of a $cdot$-ideal in $pmv$-algebras‎. ‎several characterizations of this radical is given‎. ‎we define the notion of a semimaximal $cdot$-ideal in a $pmv$-algebra‎. ‎finally we show that $a/i$ has no nilpotent elemen...

In this paper, using annular resonator we have designed an adding and dropping filter light based ontwo-dimensional photonic crystals. The shape of ring resonator filter adding and dropping that wehave proposed is Race Track. This filter has a hexagonal lattice structure of silicon bars withrefractive index 3/46 that is located in the context of air with refractive index 1. Transmissionefficien...

in order to compare sampling efficiencies of total and inhalable dust methods, three airborne dust sampling systems , 7-hole sampler , close and open face filter cassette were compared side-by-side , as stationary and for the personal samplers , in a wood working industry to evaluate their relative efficiency. a total of 162 samples were collected. the study of particle size distribution by cas...

background the first commercial system for digital radiography was introduced in 1987, and it has evolved a great deal since then. currently, it is possible to enhance images in digital radiography. objectives the aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of image enhancement in direct digital radiography as it relates to interproximal carries assessment. conclusions using these ...
