The errors of radius and wall thickness of a single vessel due to oblique sectioning in histomorphometry are expressed as a function of the circular shape factor (CSF) of the section's lumen, assuming cylindrical geometry and the absence of tissue deformation. Using computer model trees generated by constrained constructive optimization, mean errors are estimated for an ensemble of vessel segme...

An experimental study on maximum explosion pressure in closed vessel deflagration of stoichiometric gaseous mixtures, for various initial pressures within 0.3 – 1.2 bar and ambient initial temperature is reported. Explosion pressures and explosion times of stoichiometric methane-, ethaneand propane-air mixtures were measured in a spherical vessel and in two cylindrical vessels with different di...

Abstract The thermal effect of microwave heating was investigated in a NaY aged precursor gel with high dissipation factor. influence power, position, and geometry the cylindrical vessel evaluated on hot spots zeolite formation oven. Higher powers at higher temperatures led to more heterogeneity faster near wall. highest temperature gradient achieved which placed off‐center turntable farthest d...

The neutron charge form factor G En (q) is determined from an analysis of the deuteron quadrupole form factor F C2 (q) data. Recent calculations, based on a variety of different model interactions and currents, indicate that the contributions associated with the uncertain two-body operators of shorter range are relatively small for F C2 (q), even at large momentum transfer q. Hence, G En (q) ca...

dand f -shells support a large number of local degrees of freedom: dipoles, quadrupoles, octupoles, hexadecapoles, etc. Usually, the ordering of any multipole component leaves the system sufficiently symmetrical to allow a second symmetry breaking transition. To classify the possibilities, one has to construct the symmetry group of the first ordered phase, and then re-classify the order paramet...

We present ab initio calculations of both the dipole and quadrupole polarizabilities within the framework of the relativistic coupled-cluster theory. We directly solve the first order perturbed equation arising from a general one-electron perturbation, thereby avoiding an explicit summation over intermediate states. This method can be applied to a wide range of problems including the high preci...

We present the analysis on the quadrupole phases of the Internal Linear Combination map, ILC(I) and (III) derived by the WMAP team (1 and 3-year data release). This approach allows us to see the global trend of non-Gaussianity of the quadrupoles for the ILC(III) map through phase correlations with the foregrounds. Significant phase correlations is found in between the ILC(III) quadrupole and th...
