Stochastic heat engines beyond a unique definition of temperature

When Carnot and Stirling initially conceptualized heat engines, temperature unambiguously represented our everyday perception of cold and hot.However, as this energy scale is expanded to measure the strength of noise in general nonequilibrium heat baths, such as those consisting of bacteria or active particles, it takes on different definitions and

Apollon Mark: bounce mark visualization system for ball sports judgement using prediction-based preceding mirror control

Video Assistant Referee (VAR) is used for line judging in tennis to improve the fairness of a game.However, currently, popular VAR systems are based on three-dimensional trajectories and do not take actual ball bounce marks into account, which may lead to misjudgment due to misalignment.Therefore, in this paper, we propose Apollon Mark, a bounce ma

Dynamics of changes in transverse and frontal-retromolar jaw sizes in children throughout the orthodontic treatment stages

Through the biometric study of jaw models individual dimensions of the dental arches (upper Horse Leads and lower jaws) and hard palate were evaluated in children aged 3-4 years with optimal functional occlusion and malocclusion.In two years of dynamic observation in children with optimal functional occlusion a slight increase in the transversal si
