The phenomena of giant halo and halo of neutron-rich even- Ca isotopes are investigated and compared in the framework of the relativistic continuum Hartree-Bogoliubov (RCHB) and non-relativistic Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) calculations. With two parameter sets for each of the RCHB and the Skyrme HFB calculations, it is found that although halo phenomena exist for Ca isotopes near neutron drip line in both calculations, the halo of the Skyrme HFB calculations starts at a more neutron-rich nucleus than that of the RCHB calculations, and the RCHB calculations have larger neutron root-mean-square (rms) radii systematically in N ≥ 40 than those of the Skyrme HFB calculations. The former difference comes from difference in shell structure. The reasons for the latter can be partly explained by the neutron 3s1/2 orbit, which causes more than 50 % of the difference among the four calculations for neutron rms radii at 66 Ca .

This paper focuses on the development of an efficient new diagnostic procedure for checking the function of pneumatic cylinders using acoustic emission. This diagnostic procedure is able to detect distinctive differences that determine whether the cylinder is damaged or undamaged. Moreover, the paper aims to find the diagnostic criteria that can be used to evaluate the pneumatic cylinder and detect defects. In this study, acoustic emission testing of several undamaged cylinders is carried out before artificial defects are created in each one. The signals from the progress and retreat strokes are recorded and analysed according to many parameters. The root mean square is normalised and the different responses of damaged and undamaged pneumatic cylinders are recognised by the time delay of the strokes. The differences are identified by comparing the maximum root mean square from sensor A and the maximum root mean square from sensor B for one cycle in the retreat stroke. The damaged and undamaged cylinders are distinguished using the difference in energy values present in the signals of the two sensors in the retreat stroke. The final evaluation of the cylinder is determined by calculating the total value of the root mean square. This paper is a continuation of a prior article and the extension of that work.

Decay Properties

Using the Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov mean-field theory, the ground-state structural and decay properties of Nd isotopes are investigated from the proton-rich side up to the neutron drip-line. Quantities such as binding energies per nucleon, one and two-neutron separation energies, rms charge radii, and quadrupole deformation parameters have been calculated. Compared with the relativistic mean-field results, the present calculations are in better agreement with the available experimental data. The results show clearly the signature of a shape transition at [Formula: see text] and an abrupt increase in the deformation near the neutron drip-line. Further, the possible decay modes like alpha, cluster and [Formula: see text]-decay are analyzed in a unified fission model and phenomenological formulas. Overall, a good agreement is achieved between the calculated and experimental [Formula: see text]-values and half-lives wherever available. The most likely decay modes are thus identified throughout the isotopic chain.

The aim of this study was to examine the dexterity of both lower extremities in patients with stroke. Twenty patients with stroke and 20 age-matched control subjects participated in this study. To determine the dexterity of the lower extremities, we examined the ability to control muscle force during submaximal contractions in the knee extensor muscles using a force tracking task. The root mean square errors were calculated from the difference between the target and response force. The root mean square error was significantly greater in the affected limb of patients with stroke compared with those of the unaffected limb and the control subjects, and in the unaffected limb compared with that of the control subjects. Furthermore, the root mean square error of the affected limb was related significantly to motor function as determined by Fugl-Myer assessment. These results demonstrate impairment of the dexterity of both the affected and the unaffected lower extremities in patients with stroke.

Method Of Adjustment

Two experiments were conducted to examine the intelligibility of 72 passages of connected discourse prepared by Cox and McDaniel1,2 in their development of the Speech Intelligibility Rating (SIR) test. Intelligibility was assessed with a method-of-adjustment (MOA) procedure in which listeners adjusted the level of a multi-talker babble until they could just understand 50% of a passage; the measure of intelligibility was the signal-to-babble ratio, dB S/B. The objective was to develop a Revised Speech Intelligibility Rating (RSIR) test that would comprise a large number of equivalent passages that produce reliable intelligibility measures. In experiment 1, the S/B ratio was based on the overall root-mean-square (rms) levels of speech and babble, as represented by the average level of frequent peaks observed on a VU meter. Across all 72 passages, mean intelligibility was −1.43 dB S/B, and the measure of intelligibility for 42 passages was within ±0.5 dB of the overall mean for all 72 passages. In experiment 2, the S/B ratio was based on long-term rms levels of speech and babble measured in 16 one-third-octave bands, with center frequencies from 160 to 5000 Hz. In an effort to achieve greater equivalence in intelligibility among passages, the overall rms level of each passage was attenuated by the difference between SB16-band for an individual passage and S/B16-band for a reference passage. Mean intelligibility across all 72 passages was — 8.06 dB, and the measure of intelligibility was within ±0.5 dB of the overall mean for 64 of the 72 passages. For those 64 passages, the 95% critical difference for five MOAs was 0.72 dB, which corresponds to an estimated percentage critical difference Of 10.8%.

This document is my attempt at distilling some of the information in two papers published by Anthony Nicholls (J. Comput. Aided Mol. Des. 2014, 28, 887; ibid 2016, 30, 103). Anthony also very kindly provided some new equations, not found in the papers, in response to my questions. The paper describes how one determines whether the difference in accuracy of two methods in predicting some properties for the same data set is statistically significant using root-mean-square errors, mean absolute errors, mean errors, and Pearsons r values.

AbstractThe structures of Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P and S nuclei near the neutron drip-line region are investigated in the frame-work of relativistic mean field theory and non-relativistic Skyrme Hartree-Fock formalism. The recently discovered nuclei 40Mg and 42Al, which are beyond the drip-line predicted by various mass formulae are located within these models. We find many largely deformed neutron-rich nuclei, whose structures are analyzed. From the structure anatomy, we find that at large deformation low orbits of opposite parities (e.g. $$\frac{1} {2}^ +$$ and $$\frac{1} {2}^ -$$) occur close to each other in energy.
