Passage Rates and Timing of Bird Migration in Montana
The American Midland Naturalist, 2000Abstract Rates and timing of bird passage in the proposed Norris Hill Wind Resource Area (NHWRA) and vicinity in southwestern Montana were investigated using two marine surveillance radars between August 1995 and August 1996. The scanning radar array displayed movements in a horizontal plane within 360° while the vertical radar displayed altitudes of ...

Determination of fission rate by mean last passage time
Physical Review C, 2004The mean last passage time is introduced instead of the mean first passage time for determining the decay rate of a nucleus after induced fission. The stationary fission rate calculated by the inverse of the mean last passage time at the saddle point is in agreement with the result of Langevin simulations and better than that of the mean first passing ...

A Random Rate Approach to First-Passage Sequential Processes
Europhysics Letters (EPL), 1990The framework of this note is the theory of sequential processes with random transition rates. A method is developed for determining the average probability density of step count number and passage time. We show that the passage time may have a fractal behaviour even if the moments of the waiting time between two jumps are finite. The theory is applied

Effect of Warm-up Passages in Measuring Reading Rate
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1977Will one or more warm-up exercises prior to a 1-min. measure of reading rate improve reliability? Students in Grades 4, 6, and 8 read four 1-min. passages. One-fourth of each sample took the passages in each of four orders. Interpassage correlations were significantly greater for later pairs of consecutive passages than for the first-administered ...

Thermophoresis—Enhanced Deposition Rates in Combustion Turbine Blade Passages
Journal of Engineering for Power, 1979Analysis of the deposition rate in cooled and uncooled turbine cascades indicates that the temperature difference between the cooled wall and the hot working gas significantly increases the deposited fraction of the solid material, i.e., the “catch efficiency.” Data from residual oil-burning turbines show that a 300°C (572°F) temperature difference ...

Weighted-Average Methodologies for Evaluating Bar Examination Passage Rates
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014There are few truly “national” law schools in the United States. Most American law schools in the United States have a “dominant” state bar. A greater number of the graduates of nearly any law school take the bar examination administered by one state than any other bar examination. The American Bar Association and U.S.

A study of passage rates: hospital vs. college programs.
Radiologic technology, 1990One immediate, external indicator of the quality of a radiography education program is the performance of its graduates on the ARRT examination. An analysis of passage rates of hospital-based and college-based program graduates in the Southeast indicated no significant differences between the groups and a trend of slightly increasing passage rates.

The Mean-First Passage Times and Barrier Crossing Rates
2018The first passage time (FPT) is the duration that a stochastic variable takes to approach a given threshold for the first time: for example, the duration for a random walker shown in Fig. 16.1a \( \varOmega \) between a reflecting \( \left( {q_{R} } \right) \) and a absorbing \( (q_{A} ) \) boundary, b a noise-induced escape of a dynamical state from ...
