The equation for the sum of BFKL pomeron fan diagrams is rederived by a direct summation and solved numerically for rapidities y less than or equal to 50. At high rapidities, y > 20, the resulting cross-sections for the scattering of a longitudinally polarized q (q) over bar pair on the nucleus cease to depend on its transverse dimension and tend to a constant limit of 0.1768R(A)(2), which corresponds to scattering of a color dipole on a black disk. Thus the unitarity is restored and the singularity in the j plane is reduced to a simple pole at j = 1. The nuclear structure function at small x behaves as Q(2)1n(1/x). The gluon density found has a soliton-like form in the log k space: its form is close to Gaussian, independent of rapidity, the center moving towards higher log k with a nearly constant velocity as the rapidity, increases.

A general approach to studying fractional factorial designs with multiple groups of factors is proposed. A structure function is generated by the defining contrasts among different groups of factors and the remaining columns. The structure function satisfies a first-order partial differential equation. By solving this equation, general results about the structures and properties of the designs are obtained. As an important application, practical rules for the selection of "optimal" single arrays for robust parameter design experiments are derived.

Ultrasonic scattering is determined by not only the properties of individual scatterers but also the correlation among scatterer positions. The role of scatterer spatial correlation is significant for dense medium, but has not been fully understood. The effect of scatterer spatial correlation may be modeled by the structure function as a frequency-dependent factor in the backscatter coefficient (BSC) expression. The structure function has been previously estimated from the BSC data. The aim of this study is to estimate the structure function from histology to test if the acoustically estimated structure function is indeed caused by the scatterer spatial distribution. Hematoxylin and eosin stained histological sections from dense cell pellet biophantoms were digitized. The scatterer positions were determined manually from the histological images. The structure function was calculated from the extracted scatterer positions. The structure function obtained from histology showed reasonable agreement in the shape but not in the amplitude, compared with the structure function previously estimated from the backscattered data. Fitting a polydisperse structure function model to the histologically estimated structure function yielded relatively accurate cell radius estimates (error < 15%). Furthermore, two types of mouse tumors that have similar cell size and shape but distinct cell spatial distributions were studied, where the backscattered data were shown to be related to the cell spatial distribution through the structure function estimated from histology. In conclusion, the agreement between acoustically estimated and histologically estimated structure functions suggests that the acoustically estimated structure function is related to the scatterer spatial distribution.

The relation between the structure function of a one-port dynamic thermal network and the spatial distribution of thermal properties in a heat diffusion problem with applied boundary conditions is generalized from 1-D heat flows to multidirectional heat flows. A strategy for exploiting this relation is derived which allows an accurate localization of defects and measurement of thermal properties in components and packages not only when the heat diffusion problem is I-D but also 3-D.

Ultrasonic scattering is determined by not only the properties of individual scatterers, but also the correlation among scatterer positions. The role of scatterer spatial correlation is significant for dense medium, but has not been fully understood. The effect of scatterer spatial correlation may be modeled by a structure function (three-dimensional Fourier transform of the scatterer positions) as a frequency-dependent factor in the backscatter coefficient (BSC) expression. To study the structure function, we have performed three steps: 1) we developed theoretical structure function models that take into account the polydispersity of spherical scatterers;2) we developed the cell pellet biophantom technique to estimate the structure function from ultrasound backscattered data (11 - 105 MHz);3) we developed algorithms for estimating the structure function from histology, independent of the acoustic measurements. The acoustically estimated and histologically estimated structure functions show consistent frequency dependency, which demonstrates the correlation between acoustically estimated structure function and scatterer position distribution observed in histology. Furthermore, fitting the theoretical polydisperse structure function model to the experimental structure functions yielded relatively accurate cell radius estimates (error < 16%). Our results suggest that the structure function is required for accurately modeling the acoustic scattering in dense medium.

Reliability analysis is important properties of any system and healthcare system too. The healthcare system has some specifics in reliability analysis. One of them is the heterogeneity, because this system includes components with different background, kind and properties (for example, equipment and human factor). Other specific of healthcare system is great influence of human factor. Typically, the influence of human factor is evaluated by special methods from special part of reliability engineering that is known as Human Reliability Analysis (HRA). But these methods can not be used for evaluation of technical part (components) of healthcare system. In this paper new method for healthcare system evaluation is developed. This method is proposed for the quantitative analysis of healthcare system and, in particular, for Importance Analysis of this system. It is based on the application of mathematical representation that is named Multi-State System (MSS) to indicate some (more than only two) performance levels in investigated system for more details analysis. In this paper the representation of healthcare system in form of Multi-Valued Decision Diagram is used, that typically used for the system of large dimension.

In this paper simulation experiments demonstrate, that the structure function evaluation of the thermal transient testing is capable to locate die attach failure(s) of stacked die packages. The strength and the location of the die attach failure may be determined with the methodology of a fast thermal transient measurement and the subsequent computer evaluation. The special advantage of the methodology is that normally it does not require any additional circuit elements on any of the dies of the stacked die structure. The paper demonstrates the feasibility of the method both for stacked die structures of the same die size, and for pyramidal stacked die packages.

In 1965, Brutsaert proposed a model that predicted mean evaporation rate E from rough surfaces to scale with the 3/4 power law of the friction velocity (u ) and the square- root of molecular diffusivity (Dm) for water vapor. In arriving at these results, a number of assumptions were made regarding the surface renewal rate describing the contact durations between eddies and the evaporating surface, the diffusional mass process from the surface into eddies, and the cascade of turbulent kinetic energy sustaining the eddy renewal process itself. The working hypothesis explored here is that E ffiffiffiffiffiffiffi Dm p u 3= 4 is a direct outcome of the Kolmogorov scaling for inertial subrange eddies modified to include viscous cutoff thereby bypassing the need for a surface renewal assumption. It is demonstrated that Brutsaert's model for E may be more general than its original derivation implied. Plain Language Summary The movement of water vapor molecules from rough surfaces such as soils by eddies into the atmosphere is of primary significance to a plethora of applications including hydrological and meteorological forecasting, irrigation planning, energy partitioning, and subsequent growth of the atmospheric boundary layer, to name a few. In 1965, W. Brutsaert proposed a general model that links the movement of water vapor molecules from the surface to the molecular diffusivity of water vapor in air and the wind- induced shear stress at the surface. The derivation considered air packets sweeping down and coming in contact with the wet surface. When in contact with the surface, these packets become enriched with water vapor molecules during a finite contact duration, after which these packets are ejected from the surface. Brutsaert made key restrictive assumptions about the statistical properties of the contact duration of these packets with the surface to arrive at the final form of the evaporation equation. The work here demonstrates that the same result can be deriv
