Evaluation of Impulse Unloading Efficiency Pertaining to APS Power Block Turbine for Higher Dynamic Steadiness by Yu. D. Filipchik

“…The paper considers the influence of impulse unloading of APS power block turbine on its dynamic steadiness. The performed calculations while simulating four various impulse turbine characteristics have shown that the highest effect is obtained while characteristics of APS power block turbine are close to the characteristics of a steam turbine K-300/240. …”

Blocks identical by descent in the genomes of the indigenous population of Siberia demonstrate genetic links between populations by N. A. Kolesnikov, V. N. Kharkov, K. V. Vagaitseva, A. A. Zarubin, V. A. Stepanov

“…For this, DNA fragments were analyzed, which had been inherited without recombination by each pair of individuals from their recent common ancestor, that is, segments (blocks) identical by descent (IBD). The distribution of IBD blocks in the populations of Siberia is in good agreement with the geographical proximity of the populations and their linguistic affiliation. …”

Serratus Anterior Plane Block for Procedural Anesthesia for Pigtail Tube Thoracostomy: A Case Series by Edward Lopez, Raghav Sahni, Maxwell Cooper, Michael Shalaby

“…Due to its ability to anesthetize all or most of the structures associated with tube thoracostomy—skin, serratus anterior muscles, intercostal muscles, and the parietal pleura—the serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a potentially promising fascial plane block prior to pigtail tube thoracostomy. …”

A fast block partitioning algorithm for VVC intra coding based on depthwise separable convolution by Zhen YE, Guoxiang WANG, Junfeng SONG, Haokun LIU, Tiansong LI

“…The joint video exploration team (JVET) proposed versatile video coding (VVC) as a new video coding standard, and its quadtree plus multi-type tree (QTMTT) partition structure brings effective coding performance improvements.However, it brings about a sharp increase in encoding complexity, which greatly increases the encoding time.In order to solve the above problems, a fast block partitioning algorithm for VVC intra coding based on depthwise separable convolution was proposed.The pixel of coding unit (CU) was used as input, and the texture information feature of CU was extracted through depth-separable convolution.Therefore, accurate partition mode prediction was realized in the QTMT structure in VVC, and the complexity of the encoder was reduced by skipping low-probability partition modes.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm saves 18% to 48% of encoding time on the VTM 15.2, and only brings an average performance loss of 0.15%.And the additional complexity brought by the lightweight depthwise separable convolution calculation is also negligible.…”
