The cyclic codes with parity check polynomial the reciprocal of the characteristic polynomial of the Fibonacci recurrence over a prime finite field are shown to have either one weight or two weights. When these codes are irreducible cyclic we obtain many counterexamples to the conjectural classification of two-weight irreducible cyclic codes of Schmidt

The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the therapeutic effects of posterior bilateral pedicle screw fixation and lateral fixation in the extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF) in patients with osteopenia or osteoporosis. The bilateral pedicle screw fixation had more advantages in long term stable fixation and was more suitable for the ...

The Evolution of the Luminosity Function for Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies to z=1 [PDF]
Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies (LCBGs) are compact, star-forming galaxies that are rarely observed in the local universe but abundant at z=1. This increase in LCBG number density over cosmic lookback time roughly follows the increase in the star formation rate density of the universe over the same period.

Supply chain challenges in the post–Covid Era
Abstract In this paper, we reflect on the supply chain issues and operational challenges that we experienced through the various stages of the Covid‐19 pandemic. We identify some phenomena that were attributable in some way to the pandemic, and apply core principles of operations management, and a simple numerical model, to explain and understand their

Managing innovation portfolios: From project selection to portfolio design
Abstract As innovation is critical in driving growth and competitiveness, companies establish innovation (or new product) portfolio processes to select the “right” innovation projects that are allocated the necessary resources. These processes have attracted considerable interest from both academics and practice.

Green Bank Telescope observations of low column density HI around NGC 2997 and NGC 6946 [PDF]
Observations of ongoing HI accretion in nearby galaxies have only identified about 10% of the needed fuel to sustain star formation in these galaxies. Most of these observations have been conducted using interferometers and may have missed lower column ...

Freeze-drying modeling and monitoring using a new neuro-evolutive technique [PDF]
This paper is focused on the design of a black-box model for the process of freeze-drying of pharmaceuticals. A new methodology based on a self-adaptive differential evolution scheme is combined with a back-propagation algorithm, as local search method ...
