The reduction of the duration of the transient response in a class of continuous-time LTV filters [PDF]
Linear time-varying (LTV) systems have found a niche of their own in the processing of continuous-time signals. In this brief, it is shown how the reduction of the duration of the transient response of a class of continuous-time LTV filters may be seen ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Simplified Method for Nonlinear Seismic Response Analysis of Corroded Pile-Supported Wharf
Fiber-based finite element analysis (FB-FEA) has been widely recognized for its ability to reproduce experimental results and is also a reliable method for evaluating the nonlinear seismic response of pile-supported wharves (PSWs).
