This paper introduces improvement in a practical nominal characteristic trajectory following (NCTF) controller for two mass point-to-point (PTP) rotary positioning systems. The NCTF controller consists of a nominal characteristic trajectory (NCT) as a movement reference and a compensator. The objective of the NCTF controller is to make the object m

Introduction: Exposure to excessive noise is the major avoidable cause of permanent hearing impairment. Sawmill is one of the workplaces where workers are exposed to hazardous noise level.

MnxZn1-xFe2O4 nanoparticles with x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6 and 1.0 were synthesized by polymer matrix templated synthesis. Ion exchange resins in a form of spherical beads that contained nanopores were used to precipitate the nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using several characterization techniques including X-ray di

A 35-year-old multiparous woman was found unresponsive, tachypnoeic, hypoxic and in shock 4 h postpartum. The ECG revealed S1 Q3 T3, a right bundle branch block pattern and right-axis deviation. The computed tomography of her pulmonary arteries revealed bilateral pulmonary artery thrombosis with dilated right ventricle. She was fibrinolyzed with in
