The Relationship Among Life Style, Coping Strategies and Religiosity With General Health in Iranian Students

https://ijphs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJPHS/article/view/4661
Jamal Ashoori , Mohammad Ashoori
General health has been associated with many variables that from most important can be noted Life Style, Coping Strategies and Religiosity. This study examined the relationship between life style, coping strategies, religiosity and general health among Iranian students. This cross sectional study was conducted on 180 students 15-17 year olds who were selected via multi step cluster sampling method design from schools in the Varamin suburb, Iran in 2013. All students completed the questionnaires of life style, coping strategies, religiosity and general health and regression was used for data analyses. The statistical analysis revealed a positive relationship between life style, problem solving strategy and internal religiosity with general health (P<0.01) and a negative relationship between emotional coping strategy with general health (P<0.05). Life style, internal religiosity and problem-focused strategy predicted 32 percent of variance of general health and also share of life style in prediction general health was over of other variables. These results highlight the importance in considering life style at further understanding general health in students.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijphs.v2i3.3940

The immune status of 25 HIV-positive children with Acute Rhinosinusitis (ARS) has been studied in comparison with the control group of 14 practically healthy children of the same age. HIV-infected patients with ARS have shown deep infringements of the immune status, especially of T-cells and its subpopulations, and impairments of the humoral immunity, suppression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and increase of pro-inflammatory IFN-γ. After conducted treatment we have not seen any certain changes of the immune status in HIV positive patients, even in the cases with clinical improvement. It is possible to ascertain only positive changes of IL-10 maintenance and parallel decrease of IFN-γ in the dynamics of treatment.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijphs.v2i3.2904

Study on Moving Objects by Video Monitoring System of Recognition and Tracing Scheme

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/2583
Peilong Xu
In this paper a recognition and tracing scheme for moving objects by video monitoring system was studied. During moving objects recognition, Multi frame sampling method was used to establish the initial background. Edges of the moving objects were drawn according to the changes of the images, and the influence factors for edges drawing were eliminated. In the end, tracing for moving objects could be realized by recognition of morphological characteristics. The experiments indicate that, for field environment, the number of collected frames between 120 to 180 could get better image background. The shadows of the moving objects are the main factor which influence detection of object edges, and they could be eliminated by Shadow edge detection operator. For vehicles tracing, adjacent frame matching method could be used to reflect the time-space transformation of the vehicles. This scheme could realize the recognition and tracing of moving objects by video monitoring system effectively. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i9.2740

The wheat kernels were processed by moistened in water. The spontaneous and water-induced luminescence data (photon counts) were noted with an ultra-weak luminescence (UWL) detector. The following was the features of the data analyzed by the statistical parameters of the spontaneous luminescence and the fitting curves of the water-induced luminescence. The results show that the UWL intensity rises with the moistened time prolonged. It is concluded that the intensity depends on the moistened time mainly. If the moistened kernels owned a more porous structure, in the initial phase of imbibition, a higher UWL emission would be noted. Consequently, the further quantitative research of the relevant could lead a novel testing method about the wheat’s activity and quality. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i9.3150

Carrier Based Pulse Width Modulation Control of a Non-Square Direct Matrix Converter with Seven-phase Input and Three-phase Output

https://ijpeds.iaescore.com/index.php/IJPEDS/article/view/4961
Sk Moin Ahmed , Haitham Abu-Rub , Zainal Salam
This paper presents pulse width modulation technique for a direct ac-ac converter. The converter has seven-phase input supply and three-phase output. The input supply may be obtained from a seven-phase wind energy generation system with variable output voltage magnitude and frequency. The output of the proposed converter topology may be fed to the three-phase stiff grid system. Thus the requirement of the modulation of the ac-ac converter is to produce fixed voltage and fixed frequency output while the input can be variable. Additionally the output voltage gain should be high. Simple carrier-based PWM technique is suggested and harmonic injection scheme is proposed to enhance the output voltage magnitude. The output voltage reaches 90% of the input supply voltage with the proposed technique. An additional control block is used to stabilize the output voltage and frequency of the converter. Simulation results are shown in the paper for the verification of the proposed scheme.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijpeds.v3i3.4315

Multilevel Inverter Based Active Power Filter for Harmonic Elimination

https://ijpeds.iaescore.com/index.php/IJPEDS/article/view/4952
G. Nageswara Rao , P. Sangameswara Raju , K. Chandra Sekhar
In this paper, support vector machine (SVM) and fuzzy based feedback harmonic elimination technique is proposed. The proposed technique is to overcome the drawbacks of control rule selection of fuzzy logic. Here, the feedback error voltage and change of error voltage of the load is applied as the input of fuzzy logic. The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) builds the logical rules; it depends on the input error voltage and change of error voltage. From the fuzzy rules, the basic SVM takes a set of input data and predicts optimum switching angle and frequency, for each given input. Then, the selected switching angle and frequency is applied to multilevel inverter and the harmonics of the system is eliminated. The proposed method is implemented in MATLAB/simulink working platform and the harmonic elimination performance is demonstrated by the comparison of Neuro Fuzzy Controller (NFC) and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Interference System (ANFIS).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijpeds.v3i3.4314
