Suggested Methods to Solve the Coils Misalignment for the Biomedical Implants
Full text linkOne of the major problems of the inductive coupling link in the biomedical implantable devices is the misalignment between coils. This paper produces two simple suggested methods to avoid and reduce the misalignment between two coils. The first one is to split the implanted coil into two identical coils with 450 μH of inductance where the external coil was equal to them in inductance ~ 900μH. The results show that the received powers are constant and compensated by one of the coils, which provides a stable power at the implant. The second proposed suggestion is to use two separated identical coils situated in the center angles outside the human skin. The transmitting RF power of the both coils has a same resonance frequency and received with a single small implant coil, which sums the received RF signals where the amplitudes are double. The mathematical analysis of the second suggestion is introduced
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
POLITICAL AND INTELLECTUAL TRANSFORMATIONS RELATED TO THE CHURCH IN THE MIDDLE AGES
No full text"" Orta Çağ kilise tarihindeki siyasi ve entelektüel dönüşümler"" adlı tez? Orta çağ Hıristiyan Kilisesinde meydana gelen olayların canlı bir anlatımını içermektedir. Araştırmacı? Avrupa'da yasama ve yürütme otoritesi olan kilise’nin Hristiyan halk üzerinde gerçekleştirdiği siyasi dönüşümleri de içine alarak? kilisenin tanımı? ana bölümleri ve papa'dan rahiplere? diyakozlara ve hizmetkârlara kadar olan hiyerarşik yapının doğası hakkında bir açıklama ortaya koydu. Hıristiyanlık? politika? hukuk ve yaşamın her alanı dahil olmak üzere bir bütün olarak Avrupa toplumunu büyük ölçüde etkiledi. Bu sayede kilisenin Batı düşüncesi üzerindeki etkisi neredeyse iki bin yıla ulaşabildi. Araştırma? milattan sonra beşinci yüzyıldan milattan sonra onbeşinci yüzyıla kadar geçen zaman dilimi? ayrıca Roma İmparatorluğu'nun yıkıldığı ve Avrupa Rönesansı'nın (Sanayi Devrimi) başladığı dönem olan Orta Çağ'ı kapsar. Araştırmacı? Orta Çağ döneminde kilise’de ortaya çıkan sorunları? meydana gelen bölünmeleri? bu bölünmelerin başlıca nedenlerini? bölünmeler sonrasında oluşan kiliselerin sayısını? kiliselerin inançlarını ve amaçlarını? o dönemdeki zorluklar karşısında güçlenmek için kiliselerin yaptıkları toplantıları? o dönemde üzerinde çalışılması gereken sistemleri? kiliseyi kontrol eden derecelerin açıklanmasından sonra kilise yönetiminin sorumluluklarını? kiliselerin yaptıkları toplantılar ve bu süreçte gösterilen çabaları? Avrupa'da Orta Çağ'ın sona ermesine yakın meydana gelen sanayi devrimiyle halkın kilise baskısından kurtuluşunu? kilise hakimiyetinin ve kontrolünün sona ermesini ortaya koydu. Kilisenin rolü bu dönemden sonra politik? sosyal ve ekonomik olarak son buldu? yalnızca rehberlik ve vaaz haline geldi. Araştırmacı ulaştığı en önemli bulguları ve çıkarımlarını sundu.The thesis "" Polıtıcal And Intellectual Transformatıons Related To The Church In The Mıddle Ages "" contains a vivid narrative of the events that took place in the Christian Church of the Middle Ages. The researcher included the political transformations carried out by the church? which is the legislative and executive authority in Europe? on the Christian people? revealing an explanation of the definition of the church? its main divisions and the nature of the hierarchical structure from the pope to priests? deacons and servants. Christianity greatly influenced European society as a whole? including politics? law and all spheres of life. Thanks to this? the influence of the church on Western thought was able to reach almost two thousand years. The research covers the period of time from the fifth century BC to the fifteenth century BC? as well as the Middle Ages? the period when the Roman Empire collapsed and the European Renaissance (Industrial Revolution) began. The researcher revealed the problems that arose in the church during the Middle Ages? the divisions that occurred? the main causes of these divisions? the number of churches formed after the divisions? the beliefs and goals of the churches? the meetings of the churches to strengthen them in the face of the difficulties of that time? the systems that should be worked on at that time? responsibilities of the church administration after the announcement of the degrees controlling the church? meetings of churches and their efforts in this process? the liberation of the people from church oppression? the end of church domination and control by the industrial revolution that occurred near the end of the Middle Ages in Europe. The role of the church ceased to be political? social and economic after this period? it became only guidance and preaching. The researcher presented the most important findings and conclusions he had reached.
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
