− In this paper, a new method of testing of the repeatability of stylus change of modular probes used in coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) is proposed. The principle of the method is presented. The validity of the method is experimentally confirmed on a bridge Zeiss ACCURA CMM by testing positioning accuracy of magnetic joins the three popular probes: TP20 (Renishaw), VAST Gold (Zeiss) and V...

The purpose of this empirical study is to investigate two things: a) the impact domestic economic activities falling sharply due COVID-19 pandemic on micro and small industries (MSIs) throughout 2020, (b) forms crisis mitigation measures (CMMs) adopted by crisis-affected MSIs. evaluates importance four components, namely capital, collaboration, cooperation, digital technology (DT), using data f...

Power electronics is becoming pervasive in electricity-based applications, making power device reliability an increasingly important topic. Maintenance operations are necessary to ensure the functioning of electronic apparatuses [1]. Guessing time for maintenance challenging due related tradeoff between costs and improvements. Lifetime prediction techniqu...

Purpose This paper aims to describe the development of a tailorable framework practices for maintenance delivery (MD) and present range examples demonstrate tailoring process. The covers entire scope MD in detail, including several related subjects where significant business process interaction occurs. It offers wide optional throughout, complete with expert guidance enable based on context. De...

BACKGROUND Successful completion and retention throughout the multi-step cascade of prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT) remains difficult to achieve. The Mother and Infant Visit Adherence and Treatment Engagement study aims to evaluate the effect of mobile text messaging, community-based mentor mothers (cMMs), or both on increasing antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence, rete...

Continuous mercury monitors (CMMs) have the advantage of performing real-time or near real-time measurement, although they are often vulnerable to measurement interferences. For example, CMMs based on atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) are subject to interferences by components of the sample gas, such as ozone, if they happen to have strong absorption bands or lines overlapping the Hg absorpt...

OBJECTIVE to compare the motor coordination, cognitive, and functional development of preterm and term children at the age of 4 years. METHODS this was a cross-sectional study of 124 four-year-old children, distributed in two different groups, according to gestational age and birth weight, paired by gender, age, and socioeconomic level. All children were evaluated by the Movement Assessment B...
