Lasers have been widely used for tattoo removal, but the limited light penetration depth caused by high skin scattering property restricts the therapeutic outcome of deep tattoo.Skin optical clearing method, by introducing optical clearing agent (OCA) into skin, has shown some improvement in the effect of laser tattoo removal.In this study, the enh
Silicone sockets for functional prosthesis of the hand
Purpose Develop a technology of manufacturing silicone sockets for functional hand prosthesis.Methods The technology of fabricating sockets for functional hand prosthesis made of high temperature vulcanization (HTV) silicone was developed and tested for the first time in the practice of domestic prosthetics, including the traditional stages of mold
NN-TOPSIS strategy for MADM in neutrosophic number setting
Selecting an appropriate alternative among the feasible selection options is a difficult activity for decision makers.Because of the imprecise information and the complexity of decision problem, it is not easy to evaluate the attributes in terms of crisp numbers.To deal with the problem, neutrosophic numbers can be used during the decision process.
Near-Capacity Coding for Discrete Multitone Systems with Impulse Noise
We consider the design of near-capacity-achieving error-correcting codes for a discrete multitone (copyright) system in the presence of both additive white Gaussian noise and impulse noise.Impulse noise is one of the main channel impairments for digital subscriber lines Time Release Dispensers (DSL).One way to combat impulse noise is to detect the
Maternal omega-3 fatty acid intake during neurodevelopment does not affect pup behavior related to depression, novelty, or learning
Abstract Objective Previously, we showed that consumption of a diet supplemented with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3FAs) for two rounds of gestation and lactation increased the ability of rat dams to cope with stress when compared to dams that ingested a diet lacking n-3FAs.The objective of this study was to determine if the diets of thes
