Lifetime costs and lifetime net public expenditures of smoking [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundCurrent estimates of lifetime costs of smoking are largely based on model analyses using etiologic fractions for a variety of diseases or Markov chain models. Direct estimation studies based on individual data for health costs by smoking status over a lifetime are non-existent.MethodsWe estimated lifetime costs in a societal ...

Simulation study for lifetime distribution of middle-of-line time-dependent dielectric breakdown affected by global and local spacing variations [PDF]
The impact of process fluctuations for the lifetime distribution of middle-of-line time-dependent dielectric breakdown was investigated by Monte-Carlo simulation. Global and local variations were simulated using a doubly truncated normal distribution.

Overlapping Length and Lifetime Influence on Load of Simple Over-lapped Adhesive Bond [PDF]
A production process is various in single industrial branches; it usually has one common element – bonding pieces of material. We can say on the base of the production sphere analysis that simple overlapped adhesive bonds are the most common adhesive ...

Abstract We present the final results on the D-meson liftime measurements obtained by the NA27 experiment. From a sample of 145 D 0 D 0 and 149 D ± decays, we have measured τ (D 0 )=(4.6 +0.6 −0.5 )×10 −13 s, τ (D ± )=(11.2 +1.4 −1.1 )×10 −13 s, with a ratio R= τ( D ± ) τ( D 0 ) =2.4±0.4 .
