In our analysis, various assumptions concerning the data had to be made in the calculation of delays, and, despite the large numbers overall, the numbers of patients in younger age groups for some cancers was small.
Although the calculation of the delay is a matter of debate, diagnostic delays may occur at any point during disease progression and can be divided into pre-symptomatic delays, patient delays, primary care delays, referral delays, and secondary care delays.
See text for details of calculation of time delay {T}_{mathrm{red}} = {T}_{mathrm{peak}}hbox R/{V}_S, (2 where T peak is the peak delay time and R is the hypocentral distance; we assumed V S = 3.4 km/s, the JIVSM velocity for the upper crust.
More accurate calculation of the delay of the reflected wave can be realized by utilizing the real shape of the Moon.
In order to use PHAT for the calculation of time delay between the signals of the two microphones, we used a helicopter sound (wideband and quasi-periodic signal) with a length of approximately 4 s, downloaded from the internet (http://www.freesound.com) as our sound source.
A formula for calculation of the delay of events is given.
The use of one scaling factor may not be appropriate, for the following reasons: (1) the rCBV can be overestimated or underestimated, depending on the recirculation patterns in the arterial and tissue voxels, and (2) the rCBF is generally underestimated using the singular value decomposition calculation because of delays in the influx of contrast agents between the arterial and tissue voxels.
Note that in the calculation of packet delivery delays, only the delays of the packets that have been successfully delivered are taken into account.
It was found that (i) the conditional averages have significant spatial gradients before ignition and during the premixed mode and (ii) that the inclusion of physical-space transport affects the calculation of the autoignition delay time, both of which suggest that volume-averaged CMC approaches may be inappropriate for diesel-like problems.
Calculation of the mean delay time excluded 4964 (36%) patients with unknown onset.
