A novel method, named the resistors and inductors loading, is proposed in this paper to reduce the back radiation of the folded PIFA antenna with finite ground. With different loading schemes (i.e., resistors loading, inductors loading, and resistors and inductors loading), variable reduced back...
Arctic sea ice has shifted from a perennial (older, thicker ice) to a seasonal (younger, thinner) ice regime, leading to the increasingly common belief that shipping through Canada’s Northwest Passage is becoming more viable. Here, we use the Risk Index
Good reliability and validity were shown using Rasch analysis [44, 45]; (3) health-related quality of life with the EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) which covers the dimensions mobility, self-care, daily activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression. ...

The number of falls experienced by people with knee osteoarthritis (OA) is almost double the number experienced by people with no OA. The neuromuscular elements required to arrest a fall are more impaired in people with knee OA compared to their asymptom
By using Equations 5 and 6, the new length of the antenna with the DMS unit-cell is Lc= 25.9 mm. The ratio W/L is kept to maintain the cross-polarization levels sufficiently low; therefore, the new dimension of W is Wc= 30 mm, ob...
Fisher acknowledged that focusing a microscope just involves optimization in a single dimension, and conceded that to the extent that fitness is not a simple one- dimensional trait, his analogy would break down. He went on to show that as the number of "dimensions" of fitness increased, the ...
Our scale did not involve a poten- tially important dimension of social activity such as spe- cific content, period of time, satisfaction, troublesome aspects, or burden. Future research should use detailed instruments including quantity and quality of social ac- tivity in order to obtain more ...
Receiving and transmitting signals in three orthogonal dimensions improves reception if one of the signals fades in a given dimension. Many of these techniques are also applicable to inductor construction. Another embodiment is described that can assemble substrates over one another to form a stacked ...
(I). For example, if a critical dimension (CD) value of the photoresist layer is 10 nm, the theoretical length L should be larger than 10 nm. As shown by the dashed line, the molecular weight of the polypropylene (PP) should be larger than 5000 (g/mol) to meet the 10 nm of ...
