Volume Estimates

Abstract Girard form class is widely used to describe tree form. Tree volume estimates change about 3% per unit change of Girard form class (Mesavage and Girard 1946). Hardwoods growing in close proximity have been observed to have a wide range in Girard form class. Accurate determination of Girard form class can therefore be important in getting accurate estimates of hardwood timber volume. However, the cost of estimating Girard form class for every tree being measured in the stand would be prohibitively expensive. Thus, estimation of average Girard form class for a stand is considered here. Three instruments used to estimate Girard form class—a Wheeler pentaprism optical caliper, a wedge prism, and a Spiegel relaskop—were compared to direct measurement. Number of sample trees to achieve desired half-widths of the confidence interval of ±1 and ±1 1/2 units of Girard form class was calculated for each method. Direct measurement requires the fewest trees to achieve the desired results. However, it requires considerably more time per tree than any of the instruments tested. The Wheeler pentaprism requires only a few more trees than direct measurement, and considerably fewer trees than either the wedge prism or the Spiegel relaskop. Use of all three instruments is hindered when understory vegetation obscures the top of the first log. North. J. Appl. For. 14(4):202-206.

The Cost

The aim of this article is to assess the cost accounting solutions that are used currently in Polish hospitals. The evaluation covered three main areas that require cost data—management, external reporting and pricing of health services (performed by a regulatory body). The study concerned the costing model that was obligatory for Polish public hospitals in the years 1998–2011 (top-down micro-costing model) and has not yet been replaced by another solution. Different research methods have been used for each of the areas under research, inter alia surveys, direct interviews and case study methods. Empirical results indicate a limited usefulness of the researched costing model in all of the evaluated areas: management, financial reporting and pricing. First, the costing model is used moderately only for the most important management areas, such as planning, control and operational decision making. Second, it does not include the specifics of diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) (basic pricing object) and therefore does not allow for accurate determination of their costs. Third, due to lack of the complex costing methodology the model is used in an unstructured and incoherent manner.

The Cost

AbstractIn today's competitive world, three factors: price, quality and time have critical roles in the success of the companies to achieve success in the competition. For this purpose, the companies have to also adapt themselves to changes in technology and environment. Strategic cost management is the best way to improve the sustainable management models in the manufacturing companies. Strategic cost management has solved many of the problems and shortcomings of traditional accounting system and by accurate determination of costs, their proper allocation to products and elimination of waste, tries to create value for shareholders by using continuous improvement. The objective of this paper was to develop a management model called strategic cost management that reduced costs stickiness and increased corporate sustainability. Using strategic cost management approach can create competitive advantage for the companies, because it provides accurate cost price information so that the users can easily understand the information. The aim of the paper by introducing strategic cost management was to contribute toward accurate pricing, which could result in the increased profitability and competitiveness of the manufacturing companies in a highly competitive global market and at a market‐based price. Also, due to the growing competition among companies in providing high quality products with reasonable prices, a precise system of measurement of the cost of the product is necessary.

Bound Electrons

Microanalysis by EELS has been developing rapidly and though the general form of the spectrum is now understood there is a need to put the technique on a more quantitative basis (1,2). Certain aspects important for microanalysis include: (i) accurate determination of the partial cross sections, σx(α,ΔE) for core excitation when scattering lies inside collection angle a and energy range ΔE above the edge, (ii) behavior of the background intensity due to excitation of less strongly bound electrons, necessary for extrapolation beneath the signal of interest, (iii) departures from the simple hydrogenic K-edge seen in L and M losses, effecting σx and complicating microanalysis. Such problems might be approached empirically but here we describe how computation can elucidate the spectrum shape.The inelastic cross section differential with respect to energy transfer E and momentum transfer q for electrons of energy E0 and velocity v can be written as

A new method is suggested for the accurate determination of the incident beam direction K, crystal thickness t and the coordinates of the basic reciprocal lattice vectors V1 and V2 (Fig. 1) of the ZOLZ plans in pixels of the digitized 2-D CBED pattern. For a given structure model and some estimated values Vest and Kest of some point O in the CBED pattern a set of line scans AkBk is chosen so that all the scans are located within CBED disks.The points on line scans AkBk are conjugate to those on A0B0 since they are shifted by the reciprocal vector gk with respect to each other. As many conjugate scans are considered as CBED disks fall into the energy filtered region of the experimental pattern. Electron intensities of the transmitted beam I0 and diffracted beams Igk for all points on conjugate scans are found as a function of crystal thickness t on the basis of the full dynamical calculation.

Astigmatism Correction

The determination of the atomic positions from HRTEM micrographs is only possible if the optical parameters are known to a certain accuracy, and reliable through-focus series are available to match the experimental images with calculated images of possible atomic models. The main limitation in interpreting images at the atomic level is the knowledge of the optical parameters such as beam alignment, astigmatism correction and defocus value. Under ordinary conditions, the uncertainty in these values is sufficiently large to prevent the accurate determination of the atomic positions. Therefore, in order to achieve the resolution power of the microscope (under 0.2nm) it is necessary to take extraordinary measures. The use of on line computers has been proposed [e.g.: 2-5] and used with certain amount of success.We have built a system that can perform operations in the range of one frame stored and analyzed per second. A schematic diagram of the system is shown in figure 1. A JEOL 4000EX microscope equipped with an external computer interface is directly linked to a SUN-3 computer. All electrical parameters in the microscope can be changed via this interface by the use of a set of commands. The image is received from a video camera. A commercial image processor improves the signal-to-noise ratio by recursively averaging with a time constant, usually set at 0.25 sec. The computer software is based on a multi-window system and is entirely mouse-driven. All operations can be performed by clicking the mouse on the appropiate windows and buttons. This capability leads to extreme friendliness, ease of operation, and high operator speeds. Image analysis can be done in various ways. Here, we have measured the image contrast and used it to optimize certain parameters. The system is designed to have instant access to: (a) x- and y- alignment coils, (b) x- and y- astigmatism correction coils, and (c) objective lens current. The algorithm is shown in figure 2. Figure 3 shows an example taken from a thin CdTe crystal. The image contrast is displayed for changing objective lens current (defocus value). The display is calibrated in angstroms. Images are stored on the disk and are accessible by clicking the data points in the graph. Some of the frame-store images are displayed in Fig. 4.
