Diffusion-tensor MR imaging of the brain is an objective method that can measure diffusion of water in tissue noninvasively. Five adult volunteers participated in this study that was performed to evaluate the potential of gradient- and spin-echo readout for diffusion-tensor imaging by comparing it with single-shot spin-echo echo-planar imaging. Gradient- and spin-echo readout provides comparabl...

The ideal analysis of planar diodes in Temperature Limited Region is presented. Two types of relations are obtained for electric potential and electric field distributions one accurate but implicit and the other almost accurate but explicit.

New heterometallic hydride complexes that involve the addition of {Mg−H} and {Zn−H} bonds to group 10 transition metals (Pd, Pt) are reported. The side-on coordination a single Pd forms well-defined σ-complex. In contrast, three or Pt results in formation planar with subtly different geometries. We compare their structures through experiment (X-ray diffraction, neutron multinuclear NMR), comput...

In this article, we investigate geometric properties and modeling capabilities of quad meshes with planar faces whose mesh polylines enjoy the additional property being contained in a single plane. This planarity is major benefit architectural design building construction: If structural element plane, it can be manufactured on ground without scaffolding put into place as whole. Further, plane s...

recently a method has been developed to decouple the equations of motion for multi-rigid body systems. in this paper, the method is first studied, then the equations of motion for a planar two degree-of-freedom robot with flexible joints are carried out using lagaranges equations and kanes equation with congruency transformations. finally, the results obtained from both methods are throroughly ...
