The lateral-torsional buckling of tapered thin-walled beams with singly-symmetric cross-section has been investigated before.For instance, the power series method has been previously utilized to simulate the problem, as well as the finite element method.Although such methods are capable of predicting the critical buckling loads with the desired pre
The vertical profile of new particle formation (NPF) events was studied by comparing the aerosol size number distributions measured aloft and at surface level in a suburban environment in Madrid, Spain, using airborne instruments.The horizontal distribution and regional impact of the NPF events was investigated with data from three urban, urban bac
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are advanced technologies that assist drivers with vehicle operation and navigation.Recent improvements and brisk expansion in the ADAS market, as well as an increase in the frequency of incidents such as sensor spoofing, communication interruption etc., in autonomous vehicles (AVs), have raised the need to
BackgroundEarly markers to predict delayed kidney graft function (DGF) may support clinical management.We studied the ability of four biomarkers (neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL), liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP), cystatin C, and YKL-40) to predict DGF after deceased donor transplantation, and their association with e
