Watching Out for Older Drivers

Abstract Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of injury-related deaths among adults age 65 to 74. This risk for traffic fatalities may triple as the numbers of older drivers increases in the coming years. It is the ethical opinion ...

Effects of electron beam welding on the microstructure and impact properties of three reconstituted steels

Specimen reconstitution technology is important for the in-service safety of reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) in nuclear power plants. To verify the feasibility of electron beam welding for the restructured specimens, the electron beam weldi...

Materials science and engineering

During FY-96, work within the Materials Science and Engineering Thrust Area was focused on material modeling. Our motivation for this work is to develop the capability to study the structural response of materials as well as material proces...

Explainable machine learning in materials science

Abstract Machine learning models are increasingly used in materials studies because of their exceptional accuracy. However, the most accurate machine learning models are usually difficult to explain. Remedies to this problem lie in explaina...

Thermodynamics and Kinetics in Materials Science

This text presents a concise and thorough introduction to the main concepts and practical applications of thermodynamics and kinetics in materials science. It is designed with two types of uses in mind: firstly for one or two semester unive...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: Addressing the current and future therapeutic advances along with the role of Sotatercept in the management of pulmonary hypertension

Abstract Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and debilitating lung disease characterized by irreversible scarring of the lungs. The cause of IPF is unknown, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic a...

A Novel Enhanced-Majority-Voter Universal Gate in Quantum Dot Cellular Automata with Energy Dissipation Analysis

The Quantum effects instigate to dominate device recital when transistor geometries are abridged. Sometimes, transistors refrain to have the properties that mark them beneficial for computational designs. With the intention of keeping pace ...

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is the study, production and controlled manipulation of materials with a grain size < 100 nm. At this level, the laws of classical mechanics fall away and those of quantum mechanics take over, resulting in unique behaviour of...

Recent progress in high Bs and low Hc Fe-based nanocrystalline alloys

Fe-based nanocrystalline alloys provide a viable strategy to enhance the energy conversion efficiency for next-generation electrics by utilizing nanotechnology. This paper reviews current research activities that focus on Fe-based amorphous...

Innovations in nanotechnology for water treatment

Important challenges in the global water situation, mainly resulting from worldwide population growth and climate change, require novel innovative water technologies in order to ensure a supply of drinking water and reduce global water poll...

Encyclopedia of Nanotechnology

Society that has become one of the twentieth-century classic science lectures, titled "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom."He presented a technological vision of extreme miniaturization in 1959, several years before the word "chip" became...

Environmental Risks of Nanotechnology: National Nanotechnology Initiative Funding, 2000−2004

By considering risk in the early stages of a technology, costs of identifying important health and environmental impacts after a technology has widely diffused can be avoided. Nanotechnology, involving materials and objects less than 100 nm...

Principles of Archaeological Stratigraphy

This book is the only text devoted entirely to archaeological stratigraphy, a subject of fundamental importance to most studies in archaeology. The first edition appeared in 1979 as a result of the invention, by the author, of the Harris Ma...

Archaeology of Knowledge

In France, a country that awards its intellectuals the status other countries give their rock stars, Michel Foucault was part of a glittering generation of thinkers, one which also included Sartre, de Beauvoir and Deleuze. One of the great ...

Core Scouring Dynamics and Gravitational Wave Consequences: Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binary Hardening

We present a multimessenger investigation of supermassive black hole binary (SBHB) hardening by jointly comparing models to the observed stellar mass deficits of nearby core galaxies and to nanohertz gravitational-wave background measuremen...

Measurement of the Y(1S) pair production cross section and search for resonances decaying to Y(1S)μ+μ− in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV

The fiducial cross section for Y(1S) pair production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in the region where both Y(1S) mesons have an absolute rapidity below 2.0 is measured to be 79±11(stat)±6(syst)±3(B)pb ass...

A Decision Support Model for Hotel Recommendation Based on the Online Consumer Reviews Using Logarithmic Spherical Hesitant Fuzzy Information

Spherical hesitant fuzzy sets have recently become more popular in various fields. It was proposed as a generalization of picture hesitant fuzzy sets and Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets in order to deal with uncertainty and fuzziness inform...

HIP 65426 is a High-frequency Delta Scuti Pulsator in Plausible Spin–Orbit Alignment with its Directly Imaged Exoplanet

HIP 65426 hosts a young giant planet that has become the first exoplanet directly imaged with JWST. Using time-series photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we classify HIP 65426 as a high-frequency δ Scuti pulsat...
