Extremely low frequency magnetic fields in residences in Germany. Distribution of measurements, comparison of two methods for assessing exposure, and…

2001

We examined the results of 1,835 magnetic field measurements in German residences conducted between November 1997 and September 1999. The measurements were part of an epidemiological study on the relationship between magnetic fields and childhood leukemia. We performed a fixed-location measurement of the magnetic field at 50 Hz and 16 2/3 Hz (frequency of the German railway system) over 24 h in the child's bedroom in the residence of each study participant. In addition, we conducted a second 24 h-measurement in the living room at 50 Hz, and spot measurements while walking through all rooms of the respective dwelling. Median 50 Hz magnetic fields above 0.2 muT were found to be infrequent in …

Systemic analysis of the caulking assembly process

2017

The present paper highlights the importance of a caulking process which is nowadays less studied in comparison with the growing of its usage in the automotive industry. Due to the fact that the caulking operation is used in domains with high importance such as shock absorbers and brake systems there comes the demand of this paper to detail the parameters which characterize the process, viewed as input data and output data, and the requirements asked for the final product. The paper presents the actual measurement methods used for analysis the performance of the caulking assembly. All this parameters leads to an analysis algorithm of performance established for the caulking process which it …

Prenatal diagnosis of sacrococcygeal teratomas by two- and three-dimensional ultrasound

2002

We suspected two fetuses of having sacrococcygeal teratomas following initial two-dimensional ultrasound scanning at 18 and 22 weeks' gestation. The fetuses were then scanned with three-dimensional multiplanar surface and three-dimensional orthogonal planar ultrasound to establish a definitive diagnosis. Although we made a presumptive diagnosis in both cases after initial two-dimensional scanning, with three-dimensional ultrasound we were better able to define the degree of involvement of the sacrum and other pelvic structures of prognostic importance.

Electrostatic backscattering by insulating obstacles

2012

AbstractWe introduce and analyze backscattering data for a three-dimensional obstacle problem in electrostatics. In particular, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of these data as (i) the measurement point goes to infinity and (ii) the obstacles shrink to individual points. We also provide numerical simulations of these data.

Career goal-related social ties during two educational transitions: Antecedents and consequences

2010

Abstract This study examined adolescents’ career goal-related social ties during the transition from compulsory to post-compulsory education and during transition from post-compulsory education to working-life or further studies. A total of 687 Finnish adolescents aged 15–16 were surveyed of whom 654 also participated at the second measurement point one year later, and 497 three years later. Differences in career goal-related social ties were found according to gender, GPA, family structure, and SES. Moreover, social ties were associated with educational track after compulsory school above and beyond SES, GPA, and family structure. Adolescents who named a teacher or a romantic partner were …

Avaliação em Educação: algumas considerações a respeito dos indicadores

2010

En el siguiente artículo se plantean algunas cuestiones en torno a los efectos de los indicadores aplicados a la esfera educativa. Partiendo del objetivo de encontrar alternativas a los indicadores que hoy son hegemónicos en la agenda internacional, sugerimos la siguiente hipótesis tentativa: la posibilidad, no tanto de elaborar indicadores alternativos, sino de desplazar el marco de referencia dominante, cuestionando la propia noción de indicadores, y la función que ejercen de control y de distinción. Desde esta pretensión analítica, se abordan algunos aspectos relativos a las escalas de medidas y a las categorías empleadas y se introducen algunos principios que invitan a la acción desde l…

Some structural properties of a formal model of measurement procedure

1996

Three kinds of a model structure for a measurement procedure are analyzed, i.e. one-cyclic, tree-like and multicyclic. For a multicyclic structure a method of the choice of the optimal strategy for partitioning the uncertainty interval is constructed. An example of a measurement procedure using the suggested strategy is given. Some specific cases of the strategies under different initial conditions are discussed.

Measurement Uncertainty of Harmonic Emission Indicators based on IEEE Std. 1459-2010

2020

The study presented in this paper is aimed at analyzing the measurement uncertainty impact on the evaluation of some power ratio parameters for harmonic emissions assessment based on IEEE Std. 1459-2010 apparent power decomposition. In addition to power factors for line utilization and harmonic pollution levels evaluation defined in the Standard, the study covers also some new parameters, which have been introduced by the authors as IEEE Std. 1459-2010 power quantities ratios. The measurement of the aforesaid parameters is implemented on a PC-based wattmeter, in order to investigate the measurement uncertainty impact on the evaluation of the power ratios. The obtained results show that, in …
