The aim of this Patient Lift Slings and Accessories work is to show that a significant increase of the efficiency of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) can be achieved already at an early design stage, through the choice of a turbine and control regulation, by means of an accurate Wave-to-Wire (W2W) modeling that couples the hydrodynamic response calibr
Refined pancreatobiliary UroVysion criteria and an approach for further optimization
Abstract Pancreatobiliary strictures are a common source of false negatives for malignancy detection.UroVysion is more sensitive than any other method but remains underutilized because of conflicting sensitivities and specificities due to a lack of standardized cutoff criteria and confusion in interpreting results in the context of primary sclerosi
Free Software Beyond Radical Politics: Negotiations of Creative and Craft Autonomy in Digital Visual Media Production
Free software development and the technological practices of hackers have been broadly recognised as fundamental for the formation of political cultures that foster democracy in the digital mediascape.This article explores the role of free software in the practices of digital artists, animators and technicians who work in various roles for the cont
Study on Water Absorption and Thermal Conductivity of Tunnel Insulation Materials in a Cold Region under Freeze-Thaw Conditions
A thermal insulation layer is often deposited on the lining structure of tunnels in cold regions to solve the problem of frost damage.When the air humidity in the tunnel becomes excessively high, the thermal insulation material tends to absorb water, leading to significant changes in thermal conductivity.Moreover, the temperature differences betwee
