Background: We present a macular dystrophy of differing severity in a single kindred caused by a heterozygous nonsense mutation in CRX. Case report: A 21 year old Caucasian male from a Swiss family was investigated for decreasing central visual acuity asso ...
Nowadays, composites materials are frequently used in many domains. For example, their use has permit great progress in the field of aerospace, by reducing the weight and increasing the resistance of many components. If this is an example of highly technol ...
Some strings instruments, such as guitar or violin, can play the same note using different fingerings. To find out which string has been used, we developed an algorithm that compute the inharmonicity of a given audio sample, and then use it to identify the ...
Technology transfer processes enable universities to increase their positive impact on society by pursuing their entrepreneurial mission in several ways. By analyzing quantitative and qualitative data collected in a longitudinal dataset of 60 U.S. universi ...
We have identified a polydentate aminocarboxylate ligand that stabilizes uranyl(V) in water. The mononuclear [UO2(dpaea)]X, (dpaeaH2 = Bis(pyridyl-6-methyl-2-carboxylate)-ethylamine; X = CoCp2*+ or X = K(2.2.2.cryptand) complexes have been isolated from an ...
Roughness is the most important feature for texture discrimination. Here we investigate how the bilateral cortical representation of touch is modulated by tactile roughness by analyzing the neural responses elicited by stimuli with various coarseness level ...
This work is part of a project aiming at dimensioning a fishway for a hydroelectric power plant on the Rhine River. Here we only focus on the design of the fishway entrances, for which a physical model of the draft tubes and tailrace of the powerplant was ...
Electric discharge machining (EDM) is one of the viable techniques for machining of D2 steel, in which the material removal occurs by spark erosion. The poor selection of EDM parameters affect the machining quality and productivity. Considering this, the p ...
In this study, a system identification methodology is introduced to determine the model parameters of unmanned surface vehicles. The proposed identification scheme is based on sequencing the experiments according to their capabilities to identify the model ...
Context. The Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) contains more than half a million sources that are identified as variable stars. Aims. We summarise the processing and results of the identification of variable source candidates of RR Lyrae stars, Cepheids, long-peri ...
