This paper reviews a cyclic scheduling model of repetitive manufacturing environments consisting of exible machines and multi-stage jobs. We explicitly model two system performance measures, throughput and ow time, while incorporating variability arising from uncertainty in operation processing times. We present an iterative approximation scheme to estimate the two moment behavior of our perfor...

conclusions: patients who were given ketamine before or after cesarean section subcutaneously at incision site had lower pain intensity and less analgesic consumption than patients who were given placebo. patients and methods: sixty patients, aged between 18 and 25 years old, scheduled for elective cesarean section, were enrolled to this double-blind randomized controlled trial study. patients ...

where the functions Ga(x1, x2), Eb(x ′ 1, x ′ 2) and Êc(z1, z2) are the twist-3 quantities representing, respectively, the transversely polarized distribution, the unpolarized distribution, and the fragmentation function for the pion. δqa(x) is the transversity distribution in p↑. a, b and c stand for the parton’s species, sum over which is implied. δqa, Eb and Êc are chiral-odd. Corresponding ...

A six years eight months pregnant lioness at the Dulahajara Safari Park, Chakoria, Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, was presented with dystocia. This paper described the pre-, intra- and postoperative procedures including anesthetic protocol carried out and performing a caesarean section to remove dead fetuses and the successful recovery of the lioness without complications.

Background & aim:  Considering the fact that cesarean section (c-section) poses greater risks of maternal and neonatal complications, compared to vaginal delivery, scholars seek different strategies to decrease the prevalence of this surgical procedure. Birth ball exercises during pregnancy are among the proposed strategies. Thus, this study aimed to determine the effect of using birth ball dur...
