This paper examines issues that came before the Appellate Body in two disputes,US–Zeroing (EC)and theUS–Zeroing (Japan). The core issue in both the disputes involves the US Department of Commerce's practice of zeroing. The scope of the claims in both cases was considerably broader than in...
Background: Central line-associated blood-stream infections (CLABSIs) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In recent years, many institutions have been able to reduce their CLABSI rates significantly through various interventions. We report on the success achieved in significantly reduc...
This paper introduces an automatic system for maintaining the zero interference band in interferometric measurements. It facilitates precise measurements of maximum (Imax) and minimum (Imin) intensities across the investigated area for interference pattern visibility. The system employs a piezoceramic ...
Rather than resort to minimum phase approximations, this paper instead proposes a relaxation of IOFL that does not require IOFL to be implemented at every sampling instant. The relaxation introduces degrees of freedom which, in the case of bilinear systems, can be used efficiently to achieve ...
Different from conventional algorithms, a look-ahead scheme of zeroing dynamics (ZD) is established in this paper to achieve the real-time tracking control of both serial and parallel manipulators. With the exploitation of data at current time and that in history, the control inputs generated by...
This research examined the Laser Marksmanship Training System's (LMTS's) capability to establish a valid weapon (i.e., M16A2 rifle) battlesight zero. A multi-phased approach was used to (a) examine the validity of an LMTS-established zero under live-fire conditions, (b) reexamine this va...
To confirm a zero, you must shoot groups on paper at the named distance with the load you’ll use on the hunt. Ditto to see where the bullet lands beyond zero range. A competitive prone shooter, Wayne favors – and zeros with – ...
In this paper, some old and some new circuit techniques are described for the compensation of the amplifier's most important nonideal effects including the noise (mainly thermal and 1/f noise), the input-referred dc offset voltage as well as the finite gain resulting in a nonideal virtual ...
In this paper we present a linear autozeroing ultra low-voltage amplifier. The autozeroing performed by all ULV circuits is important to reduce the impact ... Y Berg,M Azadmehr - 《World Academy of Science Engineering & Technology》 被引量: 0发表: 2012年 An Autozeroing Floating-Gate Amplif...
In this paper, to solve time-varying linear inequalities much faster, on basis of zeroing neural network (ZNN), two finite-time convergent ZNN (FTCZNN) models are proposed by exploiting two novel nonlinear activation functions (AFs). The first FTCZNN model is established by using the sign-bi...
