Introduction.Neurological deficits due to ischemic stroke may cause temporary or permanent disability affecting quality of life.Thus, quality of life assessment is important for evaluation of rehabilitation outcomes and general state of the health after a vascular accident.Objective.To evaluate quality of life in patients in the recovery period of
Identification and distribution of whiteflies (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in tomato crops (Solanum lycopersicum) in Cundinamarca (Colombia)
The main purpose of this study was to determine the presence, distribution and characterization of whiteflies in thirteen tomato-crop producing municipalities in Cundinamarca (Colombia).Immature stages were collected and taken to the laboratory until adults emerged in order to establish their taxonomic identification.The mitochondrial regions were
The Thermal Analysis and Heat Dissipation Structure Optimization of a Propeller Driver System
The thermal performance of the propeller driver system is very important for underwater vehicles.A new kind of cylindrical heat sink is designed for a certain propeller driver system.The performances of the heat sink are analyzed, mainly using numerical methods.The thermal influences of structure parameters, such as base thickness, fins length, and
A Constructive Method and a Guided Hybrid GRASP for the Capacitated Multi-Source Weber Problem in the Presence of Fixed Cost
This paper presents a new variant of the capacitated multi-source Weber Tracksuit problem that introduces fixed costs for opening facilities.Three types of fixed costs are considered and experimented upon.A guided constructive heuristic scheme based on the concept of restricted regions and a greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) are p
