Background: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common problem among adolescents and young adults especially in soccer players, cyclists, rowers, volleyball players, ballet dancers, horseback riders, tennis players and runners as well as housewives.1Objective of the study was to find out whether ultrasound therapy with exercises or patellar taping with exercises is more effective on pain and muscle power, KPFPS and Q angle in patients with chondromalacia patella.

In this paper we contemplate on the study on monotone (uniformly) auto continuous regular set multi functions. Lusin’s theorem is generalized to uniformly auto continuous measure spaces. Egroffs theorem for fuzzy measures is proved on this theoretical setting.

This paper presents an area-time-efficient systolic structure for multiplication over GF(2m) based on irreducible all-one polynomial(AOP). We have used a novel cut-set retiming to reduce the duration of the critical-path to one XOR gate delay. It is further shown that the systolic structure can be decomposed into two or more parallel systolic branches, where the pair of parallel systolic branches has the same input operand, and they can share the same input operand registers.

The paper treats the issue concerned with flooding the urban territories of Ukraine. Large Ukrainian cities are characterized by systematically increasing the groundwater level in built-up areas and expanding areas of flooding. Additional groundwater replenishment is growing together with leaks volume. There are 60% of leaks in some regions. Today in Ukraine, engineering methods are staying the basic measures of flooding prevention and harm reduction of this phenomenon.

The manufacturing industry has developed Total Quality Management (TQM) concepts, first applied in Japan and in recent years used in the United States, which have increased productivity, decreased product cost and improved product reliability. TQM focuses on process improvement, customer and supplier involvement, teamwork, and training and education in an effort to achieve customer satisfaction, cost effectiveness, and defect-free work. TQM provides the culture and climate essential for innovation and for technology advancement.

Speech recognition is emerging as a contemporary research topic wherein many studies are conducted to optimize the efficiency of speech recognition and thereafter, suggest relevant documents, texts or any other source of information required by the users. With many real world applications, clustering can be efficiently used for the purpose of speech recognition and recommendation system. Many theories and algorithms have been proposed so far with n gram approach, DNN based system etc.

Apple and cashew nectars are well accepted by Brazilian consumers and promise important sources of bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to determine the physicochemical characteristics of cashew and apple nectars of different brands and compare them with Brazilian Legislation. Analysis was made in triplicate for pH, Brix, acidity, ascorbic acid, anthocyanin, the ratio of total solids to citric acid in the case of cashew nectars, and to malic acid in apple nectars and total carbohydrate content.

The possibility of developing of biotechnology and agrotechnology of indigofera plants in ecologically salted and degraded lands of the Aral Sea region was studied. A new salt-resistant variety of indigofera “Feruz-1” and its agrotechnology of cultivation and biotechnology for obtaining of drug & dye pigment indigo has been developed. Quantitative and qualitative HPLC method of determination of indigo dye has been developed.

A simple method was developed for direct shoot regeneration of wheat (Triticumaestivum L.). Various types of plant growth regulators singly or in combinations were investigated. Regenerated plantlets from wheat embryogenic callus were placed in MS medium supplemented with different types and concentrations of growth regulators.

The electrical properties of plasma are important in applications of electromagnetic are the conductivity, electrical permittivity and magnetic permeability. With these parameters known, propagation of electromagnetic waves in plasma can be inspected thoroughly. Since ions and electrons are the constituents of plasma, interaction of electromagnetic waves with the plasma can be formulated by starting from the behavior of a single charged particle under the effect of an electromagnetic wave. Throughout this paper, theory of interaction of electromagnetic waves with plasmas is introduced.
