  • The manipulations are the main therapheutic procedure of Chuna. Manipulation is the essential procedure of Chuna theraphy. On the basis of touch parts and motion changes, each elementary manipulation is divided into Stimulating Manipulations (reflexional manipulations) and Mobilizing Manipulations. Objectives: This study were advanced so as to know Chinese Chuna Manipulations especially on Herniated Nucleus Pulposus. Methods We Investigated Chinese medicine paper about Chinese Chuna Manipulations on Herniated Nucleus Pulposus between 1996 and 1999. Results. Chinese Chuna theraphy, Pressing Manipulations and Thrusting-Wrenching Manipulations are mostly used on Herniated Nucleus Pulposus, and Chinese Chuna theraphy carrys out Traction, Injection. Chinese medicine. Acupuncture side by side. Conclusions: Chinese Chuna theraphy uses not only Mobilizing Manipulations, but also Stimulating Manipulations whereas Korean Chuna theraphy chiefly uses Mobilizing Manipulations.

  • Formal manipulations of double series are useful in getting some other identities from given ones and evaluating certain summations, involving double series. The main object of this note is to summarize rather useful double series manipulations scattered in the literature and give their generalized formulas, for convenience and easier reference in their future use. An application of such manipulations to an evaluation for Euler sums (in itself, interesting), among other things, will also be presented to show usefulness of such manipulative techniques.

  • As more people share their opinions in online communities, such as Internet portals and social networking services, more opinions are manipulated for the benefit of particular individuals and groups. In particular, when manipulations occur for political purposes, they influence election results as well as government policies and the quality of life. This type of manipulation has targeted the general public, and their analysis and detection has also focused on such manipulation. However, to more efficiently spread propaganda, recent manipulations have targeted common interest groups(e.g., a group of those interested in real estate) and propagated information whose content and style are customized to those groups. This work characterizes such manipulations on common interest groups and proposes method to detect manipulations. To this end, we collected and analyzed opinions posted on 10 common interest groups before and after an election. As a result, we found that manipulations on common interest groups indeed occurred and were gradually increasing toward the election date. We also proposed a detection system that examines individual opinions, their authors, and their collaborators. Using the collected opinions, we demonstrated that the proposed system can accurately classify more than 90% of manipulated opinions and that many of these opinions were posted by multiple collaborators. We believe that regular audits of opinions using the proposed system can quickly isolate manipulations and decrease their impact. Moreover, the proposed features can be used to identify manipulations in domains other than politics.

  • This paper presents a task-based analysis on the number of independent robotic fingers required for compliant manipulations. Based on the stiffness relation between operational space and fingertip space of a multi-fingered object manipulating system, we describe a technique for modulation of the fingertip stiffness without inter-finger coupling so as to achieve the desired stiffness specified in the operational space. Thus, we provides a guide line how many fingers are basically required for successful multi-fingered compliant tasks. Consequently, this paper enables us to assign effectively the number of fingers for various compliant manipulations by robot hands.

  • This study investigates the temperature sensitivities of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) across a broad temperature spectrum ranging from -196 ℃ to 900 ℃. We developed the FBG temperature measurement system using a high-temperature tubular furnace and liquid nitrogen to supply consistent high and low temperatures, respectively. Our research showed that the FBG temperature sensitivity changed from 1.55 to 10.61 pm/℃ in the range from -196 ℃ to 25 ℃ when the FBG was packaged with a quartz capillary. In the 25-900 ℃ range, the sensitivity varied from 11.26 to 16.62 pm/℃. Contrary to traditional knowledge, the FBG temperature sensitivity was not constant. This inconsistency primarily stems from the nonlinear shifts in the thermo-optic coefficient and thermal expansion coefficient across this temperature spectrum. The theoretically predicted and experimentally determined temperature sensitivities of FBGs encased in quartz capillary were remarkably consistent. The greatest discrepancy, observed at 25 ℃, was approximately 1.3 pm/℃. Furthermore, it was observed that at 900 ℃, the FBG was rapidly thermally erased, exhibiting variable reflected intensity over time. This study focuses on the advancement of precise temperature measurement techniques in environments that experience wide temperature fluctuations, and has considerable potential application value.

  • In this letter, we derive the Gallager random coding bound for discrete memoryless channels purely by simple manipulations of algebraic inequalities rather than invoking conceptually difficult random coding arguments. Gallager random coding bound is a very useful tool in information and coding theory due to its applicability to situations in which it is difficult to determine the decision regions and due to the fact that it can be used to derive the channel coding theorem. The readers will find it relatively easy to apply to many practical problems of interest the step-by-step algebraic derivations of the Gallager random coding bound with appropriate modifications.

  • According to the defense-in-depth concept, not only a preventive strategy but also an integrated cyberattack response strategy for NPPs should be established. However, there are limitations in terms of responding to penetrations, and the existing EOPs are insufficient for responding to intentional disruptions. In this study, we focus on manipulative attacks on process data. Based on an analysis of the related attack vectors and possible attack scenarios, we adopt the Kalman filter to detect process anomalies that can be caused by manipulations of process data. To compensate for these manipulations and secure MCR operators' situational awareness, we modify the Kalman filter such that it can filter out the effects of the manipulations adaptively. A case study was conducted using a hardware-in-the-loop system. The results indicated that the developed method can be used to verify whether the displayed safety-related state data are reliable and to implement the required safety response actions.

  • This paper presents an efficient method to evaluate the performance of an extended stochastic Petri net by simple algebraic operations. The reachability graph is derived from an extended stochastic Petri net, and then converted to a timed stochastic state machine, using a semi-Markov process. The n-th moments of the performance index are derived by algebraic manipulations with each of the n-th moments of transition time and transition probability. For the derivation, three reduction rules are introduced on the transition trajectories in a well-formed regular expression. Efficient computation algorithms are provided to automate the suggested method. The presented method provides a proficient means to derive both the numerical and the symbolic solutions for the performance of an extended stochastic Petri net by simple algebraic manipulations.
