Une reine entre ombres et lumières ou le pouvoir au féminin : le cas d’Isabelle Bourbon, reine d’Espagne, première femme de Philippe IV (1603-1644) by Frédérique Sicard

“…The role of French queens and their relation to power were strictly regulated, but their political influence is difficult to assess given the shadows within which they worked. In 1615, Isabelle of Bourbon, born Princess of France, married Philip of Spain and became one of these seldom-studied Queens of the shadows. …”

Study on an effective integrated model of Ka-band mobile satellite channel by Juan WEI, Da LIU, Gang-qi TIAN

“…In order to describe the Ka-band mobile satellite communications channel fading features more realitically,a mobile satellite integrated channel model was proposed.The characteristics of the mobile satellite propogation channel were analysed in detail.Weather conditions,as well as multi-path fading and shadowing were taken into account as main influencing factors.On this basis,airspace channel model was built obeying the Gaussian distribution as well ground surface,which obey Rice,Rayleigh and Lognormal joint distribution.Then the integrated channel model was presented considering weather effects on condition that the two parts are independent each other in the influence of the channel characteristics.The mathematical analysis model and simulation model of the new integrated channel model were established respectively.Finally,the BER(bit error rate)performance was analyzed for different weather conditions and shadows.Compared with the theoretical BER,the integrated channel model in satellite mobile communication systems is correct and reasonable.…”

A Case of Polymyxin b-Immobilized Fiber Column Treatment for Rapidly Progressive Interstitial Pneumonia Associated with Clinically Amyopathic Dermatomyositis by Oh Sasaki, Makoto Dohi, Hiroaki Harada, Mitsuru Imamura, Yumi Tsuchida, Kensuke Yamaguchi, Toshihiko Komai, Kazuhiko Yamamoto

“…Initial treatment with pulsed corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide, intravenous immunoglobulin, and cyclosporine seemed to suppress the activity of interstitial lung disease temporarily, but signs of relapse were detected such as elevation of serum KL-6 level and progressing pulmonary shadows in chest computed tomography scan. After polymyxin b-immobilized fiber column treatment, the areas of pulmonary shadows drastically decreased. …”

Effect of Form on Radiation Absorption in Ab Anbar Domes of Hot and Arid and Cold Climate Using Honeybee & ladybug Plugins by tohid shiri, Mohammad Didehban, Mohsen Taban

“…In the analyzes, uniformity of the dimensions of the Ab Anbars domes were used, so that the optimum dome can be obtained in terms of receiving solar radiation and absorbing heat in the shadowed area. To equalize the domes, the absorption of the sun's radiation of each dome is divided by the amount of shadowing of the same dome.Radiation absorption in hottest day of the year in hat and arid climate and coldest day of year in cold climate were calculated using Energy Plus software Honeybee & ladybug Plugins. …”
