Dynamic zoning based supervisory control for elevators

Proceedings of the 1999 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications (Cat. No.99CH36328), 2003
Zoning is one conventional way to make an existing elevator system adapt to different traffic patterns. However, zoning is generally either fixed permanently or static based on time scheduling where the floors being grouped into zones are predetermined during the design stage.

Serum Levels of Pregnancy Zone Protein are Elevated in Presymptomatic Alzheimer’s Disease

Journal of Proteome Research, 2011
We have sought for disease-related proteins that could predict the onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a study population derived from the Rotterdam Scan Study, a population-based prospective cohort study designed to investigate the etiology and natural history of age-related brain changes in the elderly. The serum proteome of 43 persons who developed

Probability Distribution of Surface Elevation in Surf and Swash Zones

Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 1998
Three irregular wave tests were conducted on a 1:16 smooth impermeable slope to investigate the detailed cross-shore variations of the probability distributions and statistics of the free surface elevations and middepth horizontal velocities in the shoaling, surf, and swash zones.

Enhancing the resilience of high-vulnerability, low-elevation coastal zones

Ocean & Coastal Management, 2021
Abstract This paper aims to explore how resilience to climate change can be achieved and optimised within an example of a complex, high-vulnerability and low-elevation coastal zone. In Uist, Outer Hebrides, Scotland, a completed INTERREG project provided a framework for resilience planning in a complex, multifaceted environment, where official bodies,

Elevation-Dependent Multiscale Analysis of a Complex Intertidal Zone

Journal of Coastal Research, 2013
ABSTRACT Horne, P.; Suteanu, C.; van Proosdij, D., and Baker, G., 2013. Elevation-dependent multiscale analysis of a complex intertidal zone. Coastal geomorphology is the result of many complex interacting processes operating over a range of scales in space, and multiscale analysis on relevant scale intervals can help link form with process.

Optimum Floor Elevation in Storm Tide Flood Zones

Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 1983
For structures located in flood prone areas an engineering cost analysis method is developed to establish the least cost elevation of the structural floor. The least cost elevation is one yielding the lowest life cycle cost combination of flood damage costs, construction costs, operating and maintenance costs together with anticipated gradients, as ...

Replicated hybrid zones of Xiphophorus swordtails along an elevational gradient.

Molecular ecology, 2011
Natural hybrid zones provide opportunities to study a range of evolutionary phenomena from speciation to the genetic basis of fitness-related traits. We show that widespread hybridization has occurred between two neo-tropical stream fishes with partial reproductive isolation.

Distribution of Settlement and Population According to Elevation Zones in Yıldızeli District

Eastern Geographical Review, 2023
İnsanın yeryüzünde yaşamaya başladığı zamanlardan itibaren en temel ihtiyaçlardan birisini de barınma ihtiyacı oluşturmuştur. Bu ihtiyacını gidermek için insanlar çeşitli şekillerde barınacak alanlar kendilerine bulmuşlar veya inşa etmişlerdir. İnsanların barınma alanlarını oluşturan bu faaliyetler nüfusun da artışına bağlı olarak sosyal, kültürel ve ...

Mildly Elevated Pulmonary Hypertension: Gray Zone or Already a Disease?

Heart failure clinics, 2022
During the sixth World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension, the threshold of mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) for the definition of pulmonary hypertension (PH) has been lowered to a value of greater than 20 mmHg, measured by means of right heart catheterization at rest. In this review, we aim at describing the impact of the new definition of PH,
