IMPULSE RATE [6 records]

Record 1 2022-08-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Publication and Bookselling
CONT

Bookazines... are normally defined as products sold exclusively on newsstands for impulse buying, outside the normal publication schedule, with little or no advertising(and no rate base). While enjoying a longer shelf-life than magazines, they are available for a limited time only. They are traditionally seen as not suitable for libraries, bulk sales or controlled distribution, and are normally spinoffs of a subscription magazine.

OBS

bookazine; mook; bookzine: terms formed by combining the words "book" and "magazine."

French

Domaine(s)
  • Édition et librairie
DEF

Publication périodique de forme hybride tenant à la fois de la revue, du magazine et du livre, qui associe une maquette soignée et très illustrée à un contenu textuel abondant.

OBS

bouquazine; mouquin : termes formés par la fusion des mots «bouquin» et «magazine».

OBS

livre-magazine : désignation et définition publiées au Journal officiel de la République française le 25 juin 2019.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Computer Mathematics
  • Computer Programs and Programming
CONT

Although other design algorithms can decrease coefficient values, the constrained [artificial bee colony(ABC)-adaptive modification rate(AMR) ] algorithm can reduce impulse responses at insignificant locations to zero.

Record 3 2014-07-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Morphology and General Physiology
  • Nervous System
CONT

The anterior cingulate cortex(ACC) is the frontal part of the cingulate cortex that resembles a "collar" surrounding the frontal part of the corpus callosum. It consists of Brodmann areas 24, 32, and 33. It appears to play a role in a wide variety of autonomic functions, such as regulating blood pressure and heart rate. It is also involved in rational cognitive functions, such as reward anticipation, decision-making, empathy, impulse control, and emotion.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Morphologie et physiologie générale
  • Système nerveux
CONT

Le cortex cingulaire antérieur (CCA) est la partie frontale du cortex cingulaire, qui ressemble à un «collier» s'enroulant autour du corps calleux (dont les fibres relaient les signaux neuronaux entre les hémisphères cérébraux droit et gauche). Il comprend une zone ventrale et une zone dorsale. Il semble jouer un rôle dans une grande variété de fonctions autonomes comme la régulation de la pression artérielle et du rythme cardiaque, de fonctions cognitives, telles que l'anticipation de récompense, la prise de décision, l'empathie et l'émotion.

Record 4 2003-10-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil Drilling
DEF

A downhole "real time" data gathering and transmitting system that sends information from the drill bit to the surface by one of several means.

OBS

The data transmitted by some form of telemetry-hardwire or electronics, or hydraulic impulse includes drilling angle and rate, temperature, type formation, and condition of the bit. The MWD system is the most advanced yet developed to keep the driller and geologist informed on conditions several thousand feet down hole.

OBS

[This technology allows a driller to] determine soil properties and measure whether his well is on course without pulling pipe and bit and lowering instruments into the hole.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Forage des puits de pétrole
CONT

Objet des mesures de fond pendant le forage. [...] Leur but vise à connaître en temps réel les paramètres de fond : [...] paramètres mécaniques [...] paramètres liés à la formation [...] paramètres directionnels [...]

CONT

Mesures en cours de forage, deux types de transmission sont utilisés : par câble électrique ou par pression de la boue.
