TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a spatial analysis of 2013-2015 national drinking water PFAS concentrations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (US EPA) third Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR3) program.
Abstract: Drinking water contamination with poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) poses risks to the developmental, immune, metabolic, and endocrine health of consumers. We present a spatial analysis of 2013–2015 national drinking water PFAS concentrations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (US EPA) third Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR3) program. The number of industrial sites that manufacture or use these compounds, the number of military fire training areas, and the number of wastewater treatment plants are all significant predictors of PFAS detection frequencies and concentrations in public water supplies. Among samples with detectable PFAS levels, each additional military site within a watershed’s eight-digit hydrologic unit is associated with a 20% increase in PFHxS, a 10% increase in both PFHpA and PFOA, and a 35% increase in PFOS. The number of civilian airports with personnel trained in the use of aqueous film-forming foams is significantly associated with the detection of ...

TL;DR: The architecture of the edge detector presented is highly pipeline to perform the computations of gradient magnitude and direction for the output image samples and has been demonstrated with a prototype system that is performing image edge detection in real time.
Abstract: The architecture of the edge detector presented is highly pipeline to perform the computations of gradient magnitude and direction for the output image samples The chip design is based on a 2- mu m, double-metal, CMOS technology and was implemented using a silicon compiler system in less than 2 man-months It is designed to operate with a 10-MHz two-phase clock, and it performs approximately 200*10/sup 6/ additions/s to provide the required magnitude and direction outputs every clock cycle The function of the chip has been demonstrated with a prototype system that is performing image edge detection in real time >

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic review of bridgeless power factor correction (PFC) boost rectifiers, also called dual-boost PFC rectifiers is presented, where loss analysis and experimental efficiency evaluation for both CCM and DCM/CCM boundary operations are provided.
Abstract: In this paper, a systematic review of bridgeless power factor correction (PFC) boost rectifiers, also called dual boost PFC rectifiers, is presented. Performance comparison between the conventional PFC boost rectifier and a representative member of the bridgeless PFC boost rectifier family is performed. Loss analysis and experimental efficiency evaluation for both CCM and DCM/CCM boundary operations are provided.

TL;DR: Compared with families of male veterans without current PTSD, families ofmale veterans with current PTSD showed markedly elevated levels of severe and diffuse problems in marital and family adjustment, in parenting skills, and in violent behavior.
Abstract: Interviews were conducted with a nationally representative sample of 1,200 male Vietnam veterans and the spouses or co-resident partners of 376 of these veterans. The veteran interview contained questions to determine the presence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and items tapping family and marital adjustment, parenting problems, and violence. The spouse or partner (S/P) interview assessed the S/P's view of these items, as well as her view of her own mental health, drug, and alcohol problems and behavioral problems of school-aged children living at home. Compared with families of male veterans without current PTSD, families of male veterans with current PTSD showed markedly elevated levels of severe and diffuse problems in marital and family adjustment, in parenting skills, and in violent behavior. Clinical implications of these findings are discussed.
