Abstract:

Software and hardware methods have been developed to correct images for spatial and intensity distortions produced by optical and electro-optical components in X-ray area detectors. Spatial distortions are divided into two types: gross distortions produced by the inherent properties of the detector components and local distortions formed by irregularities in the components. Intensity distortions are separated into three types: those caused by background nonuniformity; those resulting from pixel-dependent nonuniform intensity response; and those resulting from time-dependent variations in backg

Abstract:

It is well established that misallocation of factor resources lowers productivity. In this paper, I use data from both formal and informal firms to study distortions in input and output markets as sources of misallocation in the Indian manufacturing sector. My work extends the seminal work of Hsieh and Klenow (2009). I consider output, capital, raw material, energy, and service sector distortions in a monopolistically competitive framework to measure the aggregate dispersion in total factor revenue productivity (TFPR). I also decompose the variance in TFPR and show that raw material and output

Abstract:

Person’s immersion in computer virtual reality (VR) is accompanied by numerous distortions in his/her perception due to the replacement of sensory stimuli coming through visual, auditory and partially proprioceptive channels. In this case, the person’s own body becomes an immersion tool, since its movements indirectly affect the movement of the avatar in VR. Performing actions in VR on behalf of the avatar contributes to the appearance of distortions in the perception of one’s own body due to the diffuse effect of actualizing the operational image at the moment of purposeful activity (the subj

Abstract:

Stoats (Mustela erminea) are active hunters and, therefore, one might predict that any broken bones or other injuries impeding active movement would incur a serious risk of starvation. Dead stoats (n = 560) were collected from trappers operating predator control lines in three conservation areas of New Zealand from 1972–1978. Femurs were cleaned and examined for healed injuries and deformities. Five femurs from four stoats (one with both femurs injured) showed traumatic distortions following healing of complete breaks incurred during life.

Cell and tissue preparations for transmission EM contain artifacts introduced at each step of the preparative method. Fixation, as a first and crucial step, is subject to both gross and subtle artifact. For familiar tissues, gross artifacts are easily recognized. Artifacts in unfamiliar cells and subtle distortions or alterations of structure or localizations of molecules of interest are more difficult to assess.Three general approaches are useful for identification of fixation artifacts.

ABSTRACTIt is often assumed that children go through a stage in which they systematically overapply irregular past tense patterns to inappropriate verbs, as inwipe-wope, bring-brang, trick-truck, walk-has walken. Such errors have been interpreted both as reflecting over-use of minor grammatical rules (e.g. ‘changeitoa’), and as reflecting the operation of a connectionist pattern associator network that superimposes and blends patterns of various degrees of generality. But the actual rate, time course, and nature of these errors have never been documented. We analysed 20,000 past tense and part

The objectives were to assess the importance of topographic effects and to help identify them in existing field data. The total effect of topography on the LOTEM response can be considered as a combination of four distortions of the corresponding responses for a flat

Abstract:

The results of 190 model tests and failures of five torispherical heads in service are analyzed in this paper. Seventy-two of the heads failed by buckling of the knuckle and 17 of the heads were pressurized until the heads failed by bursting or by rupture of the crown. The test pressures were compared with the design pressures obtained from ASME Section VIII, Divs. 1 and 2 rules which are limited to heads with L/t⩽500, ASME Code Cases 2260 and 2261 rules which are limited to heads with L/t⩽500, the French Code CODAP rules which apply to heads with D/t ratios up to 1000, and the ECCS rules whic

Abstract:

Aim: Satellite accounts provide an integrated economic framework that complements the System of National Accounts (SNA) by capturing economic activities not fully represented in core statistics. This study presents the Household Production Satellite Account (HPSA) as an example of best practices in extending official statistics. The primary goal is to estimate the monetary value of domestic work and household production (market and non-market) in Poland, contributing to an extended GDP model.

Abstract:

The development of collective investment institutions (CIIs) in Ukraine is characterized by rather ambiguous and stable trends, which at first glance do not have any objective economic basis. The dynamics of CIIs activities in Ukraine demonstrates their steady invulnerability to the crises in the global and national economy, maintaining positions (in quantity terms) against the background of reduced number of both professional stock market participants and other institutional investors, and despite the decrease in the financial instruments in circulation, and the gradual formation in public co

Abstract:

Background Biotin interference in streptavidin-based immunoassays causes widespread analytical distortions that may lead to clinical confusion, inappropriate patient management and, ultimately, adverse events. Its prevalence has increased recently due to the increased use of high-dose biotin therapy in specific patient groups (notably multiple sclerosis) and possibly the general community. Methods We have developed a method to deplete biotin from samples using the streptavidin-coated magnetic microparticles that are a component of most susceptible assays. Results We show that high concentratio

Abstract:

The analysis of dependences of transformer oil indicators in 330 kV autotransformer tanks on the duration of operation is performed. The description of the dispersion analysis model for checking the dependences for deviations from linearity is given. It is shown that it is possible to estimate the presence of nonlinearity in the dependences of oil indicators by comparing the value of the mean square of the deviation from linearity with the value of the residual mean square, which are determined within the dispersion decomposition. On the example of such an indicator as the organic acids conten

Credit risk, represented in this study by the ratio of non-performing loans to total loan (NPL), is considered as one of the critical factors that causes bank distress and failure. This study examines the macroeconomic and bankspecific determinants of credit risk in the Nigerian Banking sector from the period 1998Q1 to 2018Q4 using the bounds test approach to co-integration. Literature survey in this subject area using Google Scholar resources reveals that there seems to be a consensus of findings in terms of the negative relationship between credit risk and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth

Abstract:

cis-trans-cis-Ammine(cyclohexylamine)diacetatodichloroplatinum(IV) is an oral analog of the platinum anti-cancer drug cisplatin that is currently in phase III clinical trials. Its active form, {Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)}2+, binds to DNA similarly to cisplatin, forming intra- and interstrand cross-links between adjacent purine bases. Since {Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)}2+contains two different ligands, it can form two isomeric 1,2-d(GpG) intrastrand cross-links. Here we report the 2.4-Å resolution x-ray crystal structure of the major adduct between {Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)}2+and a DNA dode

The film was directed by V. I. Khotinenko, the script was written by E. Ya. Volodarsky. The authors of the series claimed that their objective was to create an image of “Dostoevsky beyond the textbook”, wholly (or largely) unknown to today’s audience. But the authors did not explain what they meant by “Dostoevsky beyond the textbook”, nor, for that matter, by the “textbook” version. Professional expertise

Abstract:

The dynamics of weakly interacting three-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), trapped in external axially symmetric plus anharmonic distortion potential are studied. Within a variational approach and time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation, the coupled condensate width equations are derived. By modulating anharmonic distortion of the trapping potential, nonlinear features are studied numerically and illustrated analytically, such as mode coupling of oscillation modes, and resonances. Furthermore, the stability of attractive interaction BEC in both repulsive and attractive anharmonic
