Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 17-e6, February 2022., 2022 Background – Because of the increased incidence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria, the use of disinfectants over antibiotics has been encouraged. However, the interactions between disinfectants and host local immunity are poorly understood. Objective – To assess the effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (Chx), with and without selected host defence ...

Infant Mental Health Journal: Infancy and Early Childhood, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 21-34, January/February 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Parental reflective functioning (PRF) is an important predictor of infant attachment, and interventions that target parent–infant/toddler dyads who are experiencing significant problems have the potential to improve PRF. A range of dyadic interventions have been developed over the past two decades, some of which explicitly target PRF as part ...

Shock and Vibration, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 This study aims to estimate the wind loads acting on a tower structure by comparing and reviewing design codes and the results of wind tunnel tests. To this end, the modal properties of the tower were identified through short‐term on‐site measurements of the Busan Tower in Korea. The wind load acting on the tower was calculated using four design codes:

The response of hot wires in high Reynolds-number turbulent pipe flow [PDF]
, 2004 Issues concerning the accuracy of hot-wire measurements in turbulent pipe flow are addressed for pipe Reynolds numbers up to 6 × 106 and hot-wire Reynolds numbers up to Rew ap 250. These include the optimization of spatial and temporal resolution and the

The distributions of functions related to parametric integer optimization [PDF]
, 2020 We consider the asymptotic distribution of the IP sparsity function, which measures the minimal support of optimal IP solutions, and the IP to LP distance function, which measures the distance between optimal IP and LP solutions.

A fast branch-and-bound algorithm for non-convex quadratic integer optimization subject to linear constraints using ellipsoidal relaxations [PDF]
, 2015 We propose two exact approaches for non-convex quadratic integer minimization subject to linear constraints where lower bounds are computed by considering ellipsoidal relaxations of the feasible set.

Nash equilibria sets in mixed extension of 2x2x2 games [PDF]
Computer Science Journal of Moldova, 2005 We describe the Nash equilibria set as an intersection of graphs of players' best responses. The problem of Nash equilibria set construction for three-person extended 2 2 2 games is studied.

Tropical determinant on transportation polytope [PDF]
, 2014 Let ${\mathcal D}^{k,l}(m,n)$ be the set of all the integer points in the transportation polytope of $kn\times ln$ matrices with row sums $lm$ and column sums $km$.
