Abstract:
Multipeak textures are defined by an orientation distribution function consisting of a large number (e.g. 100) of narrow peaks (e.g. 1°) at the orientations gi. Between these peaks the orientation density drops to zero. The peak orientations gi can be calculated from corresponding peak positions in one or several pole figures. Whether this procedure is unique or not depends on the number of peaks and the experimental uncertainty of the peak positions. The number of possible “ghost” positions may thus be estimated. A search procedure is described by which the orientations gi can be found from p

Abstract Objective. This study aimed to describe a modified photoplethysmography (PPG) signal processing and analysis procedure to obtain a more reliable arterial stiffness index (SI). Approach. Three parameters were used to assess the PPG signal quality without prominent diastolic waves, which are similar to a sinusoidal waveform shape. The first parameter, sinusoidal ratio (S-value), was based on frequency-domain analysis: a higher S-value indicated the presence of PPG pulse wave with unapparent diastolic peak. The second parameter was the time difference between systolic peak-to-diastolic p

The Bragg scattering peak corresponds to the vertical air motion and the Rayleigh scattering peak corresponds to the hydrometeor motion.

Abstract:
The effects of the Youngswick osteotomy on plantar peak pressure distribution in the forefoot are presented for 17 patients (23 feet) with mild-to-moderate hallux limitus deformity and 23 control subjects (23 feet). During 2 years of follow-up, the operation produced a significant increase in the range of dorsiflexion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint in these patients, reaching near-normal values. Preoperative and postoperative measurements, using a pressure-distribution measurement system, show that peak pressure beneath the hallux and the first metatarsal head remained unchanged. Howev

Abstract:
A procedure is developed for the exact interpolation of apodized, magnitude-mode Fourier transform (FT) spectra. The procedure gives the true center frequency, i.e., the location of the continuous peak, from just the largest three discrete intensities in the discrete magnitude spectrum. The procedure is applicable for the peaks in the apodized magnitude spectrum of a time signal of the form f( t) = cos( ωt) exp(– t/τ). There are no restrictions on the value of the damping ratio T/τ. The procedure is demonstrated for the sine-bell and Hanning windows and is generalizable to other windows which

Abstract:
AbstractYttrium aluminium garnet, Y3A15O12– YAG, has a powder diffraction pattern that is easy to analyse in principle, but shows very interesting problems. These problems are revealed using an interactive graphics system, UNIRAS, intregated with some of the usual procedures for crystallographic data processing. For example, indexing with the APPLEMAN procedure is improved when the high-angle peaks are properly identified, and the cell parameters then refine to a high precision. Iterations between refinements and graphical analysis allows the operator to identify even some of the very weak pea

Abstract:
Abstract. A new impedance spectroscopy measurement procedure for automotive battery cells is presented, which is based on waveform shaping. The method is optimized towards a short measurement duration, high excitation power and increased frequency resolution and overcomes limitations of established methods. For a given spectral magnitude profile, a corresponding time domain waveform is derived from the inverse discrete Fourier transform. Applying an identical initial phase angle for each frequency component, the resulting signal exhibits a high peak-to-peak amplitude at relatively low total ex

<strong>Background:</strong> To determine whether a child has asthma exacerbation, we should obtain the value of peak expiratory flow. It is useful in a diagnostic procedure, in evaluation of response to therapy and following the course of asthma.The context and purpose of the study: On the basis of published relations between&nbsp; body height and peak expiratory flow in children I developed a formula for calculation of predicted peak expiratory flow in children according to body height.

Abstract:
An algorithm is described for matching and correlating two or more sets of peaks or atoms. The procedure is particularly useful for matching putative selenium atoms from a selenium-atom substructure as obtained fromEmaps from two or more random-atom trials. The algorithm will work for any space group exceptP1. For non-polar space groups, the procedure is relatively straightforward. For polar space groups, the calculation is performed in projection along the polar axis in order to identify potential matching peaks, and an iterative procedure is used to eliminate incorrect peaks and to calculate

Abstract:
AbstractPeak statistics from weak gravitational lensing have been shown to be a promising tool for cosmology. Here we propose a new approach to predict weak lensing peak counts. For an arbitrary cosmology, we draw dark matter halos from the halo mass function, and calculate the number of peaks from the projected halo mass distribution. This procedure is much faster than time-consuming N-body simulations. By comparing these “fast simulations” to N-body runs, we find that the peak abundance is in very good agreement. Furthermore, our model is able to discriminate cosmologies with different sets
