Viaductos de hormigón pretensado construidos por vanos sucesivos

Las dificultades que presentaba la utilización de las cimbras tradicionales al construir ciertos puentes de hormigón pretensado han forzado a encontrar una solución que superase los inconvenientes, conservando, o mejorando a ser posible, to...

Research on Universal Design of Water-based Strength Training Fitness Products

The existing strength training fitness products have the problems of single-use group and function. First of all, this paper takes the universal design as the research criterion, finds out the design pain point of the product to realize the...

Lightweight geo-bead fill to prevent soft ground deposit failure

As a foundation for transportation infrastructure, soft ground has limited bearing capacity and high compression. To prevent embankment failure, lightweight material is suggested. In the construction of road embankments, EPS can be regarded...

Los moluscos terrestres (Mollusca: Gastropoda) de Costa Rica: clasificación, distribución y conservación

Los moluscos terrestres son un grupo muy poco estudiado a nivel mundial. Hay 183 especies reportadas para Costa Rica, 30% son endémicas y 7% posiblemente están extintas. Se espera que en el país haya alrededor de 400 especies, de más del 95...

Decoding cross-cultural textbook networks: structural patterns, formation mechanisms, and predictive insights using a topology–cognition framework

Abstract Conventional textbook analysis often faces fragmented frameworks, obscuring the relationship between content structure and cognitive development. To address this gap, we propose an integrative computational modeling framework that ...

Commemorating Anniversaries of the Life and Work of Francysk Skaryna in Lithuania from the Viewpoint of Book Studies and Scholarly Communication

The aim of this article is to reconstruct the history of how anniversaries of Francysk Skaryna’s life and work were commemorated in the Lithuanian academic environment. It looks for answers to questions of when these anniversaries began to ...

Three Dimensions for SCO to Improve Legislation

The 21st century is the “era of international organizations”. the SCO is facing a realistic dilemma of “insufficient rule orientation”, “imperfect international law system” and “uneven level of rule of law among its members”. International ...

Hubungan Antara Profesionalisme Dosen dengan Karakter Kristiani Mahasiswa (Studi Korelasi di Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Pelita Harapan, Tangerang) [The Relationship Between Lecturer Professionalism and Student Christian Character (Correlation Study at the Faculty of Education, Pelita Harapan University, Tangerang)]

The realization of character education is a shared responsibility of both parents and educational institutions. Higher education as an integral educational facility has a responsibility to develop aspects of character. This is because chara...

Integrating clinical and public health knowledge in support of joint medical practice

Abstract Background Strong relations between medicine and public health have long been advocated. Today, professional medical practice assumes joint clinical/public health objectives: GPs are expected to practice community medicine; Hospita...

Multi year changes of Aerosol Optical Depth in the monsoon region of the Indian Ocean since 1986 as seen in the AVHRR and TOMS data

Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) data based on AVHRR and TOMS was analyzed to find out the changes in the Indian Ocean from 1981 to 2004. Four regions covering Indian Ocean north of 10° S were studied in detail. The results strongly sugge...

Non-volatile chirality switching by all-optical magnetization reversal in ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2

Weyl semimetals exhibit a unique feature known as Weyl nodes, which give rise to non-trivial topological features such as an anomalous Hall effect, and there are many efforts to try and control such properties. Here, the authors report ligh...

Erratum to: Search for resonant and nonresonant production of pairs of dijet resonances in proton-proton collisions at s $$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV

Genetic algorithms in astronomy and astrophysics

Genetic algorithms (GAs) emulate the process of biological evolution, in a computational setting, in order to generate good solutions to difficult search and optimisation problems. GA-based optimisers tend to be extremely robust and versati...

Improved background subtraction and a fresh look at jet sub-structure in JEWEL

Abstract Interactions of hard partons in the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) created with relativistic heavy ion collisions lead to characteristic modifications of the internal structure of reconstructed jets. A large part of the observed jet sub-...

A search for $t\bar{t}$ resonances with the ATLAS detector in 2.05 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7~\mathrm{TeV}$

Abstract A search for top quark pair resonances in final states containing at least one electron or muon has been performed with the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The search uses a data sample corresponding to an integ...

Protocol for a mixed methods process evaluation for a randomised controlled trial to improve shared decision-making about, and uptake of, osteoporosis medicines: the iFraP study [version 3; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

Background High quality shared decision-making (SDM) conversations involve people with or at risk of osteoporosis and clinicians working together to decide, where appropriate, which evidence-based medicines best fit the person’s life, belie...

A systematic review of worldwide epidemiology of psoriasis

To inform the WHO Global report on psoriasis, a new comprehensive worldwide systematic review of the epidemiology of psoriasis was undertaken. The aim of this study was to systematically review the worldwide literature regarding the epidemi...

Epidemiology of ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia in Spain: A cross-sectional study

Introduction: Ataxia and hereditary spastic paraplegia are rare neurodegenerative syndromes. We aimed to determine the prevalence of these disorders in Spain in 2019. Patients and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, multicentre, retros...

Epidemiology of Parkinson’s disease

Epidemiology of acne vulgaris

Despite acne being an almost universal condition in younger people, relatively little is known about its epidemiology. We sought to review what is known about the distribution and causes of acne by conducting a systematic review of relevant...
