Current approaches to systemize gymnastics differ in understanding the content of this concept; however, the authors agree that gymnastics is an open system of human conscious motion activities that contribute to the physical, aesthetic and social development. In our study…

This study presents efficient techniques for multiple fundamental frequency estimation in music signals. The proposed methodology can infer harmonic patterns from a mixture considering interactions with other sources and evaluate them in a joint estimation scheme. For this purpose, a…

Transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction measurements reveal the presence of stacking faults ~SFs! in undoped cubic GaN thin layers. We demonstrate the importance of the defects in the interfacial region of the films by showing that the SFs act…

Purpose: We provide a short overview of optical-data models for the description of inelastic scattering of low-energy electrons (10–10,000 eV) in liquid water. The effect on the inelastic scattering cross section due to different optical data and extension algorithms is…
