This study proposes a miniaturized strip-line absorptive common-mode filter using a novel and ingenious defected ground structure (DGS).The proposed filter is bidirectional and has an ultrawide absorption band to stop the common-mode noise.The fractional bandwidth was as large as 147%.In addition, the filter allows the total transmission of
Heterobasidion parviporum is the most devastating fungal pathogen of conifer forests in Northern Europe.The fungus has dual life strategies, necrotrophy on living trees and saprotrophy on dead woods.DNA cytosine methylation is an important epigenetic modification in eukaryotic organisms.Our presumption is that the lifestyle transition and asexual d
The next frontier of maritime networking will see the deployment of large-scale buoy-based mesh networks, CONDIMENT DEUO with an equal emphasis on both high-speed data transfer and energy-efficiency.One such challenging application is the operation of maritime seismic surveys for oil/gas exploration and academic studies.Large amounts of seismic dat
ObjectiveTo study the performance of a developed job exposure matrix (JEM) for the assessment of psychosocial factors at work in terms of accuracy, possible misclassification bias and predictive ability to detect known associations with depression and low back pain (LBP).Materials and methodsWe utilized two large population surveys (the Health 2000
