The Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Optimized Weighted Bonferroni Means and Their Application

, 2020
We investigate and propose two new Bonferroni means, that is, the optimized weighted BM (OWBM) and the generalized optimized weighted BM (GOWBM), whose characteristics are to reflect the preference and interrelationship of the aggregated arguments and ...

Maximally localized Wannier functions constructed from projector-augmented waves or ultrasoft pseudopotentials

, 2007
We report a theoretical scheme that enables the calculation of maximally localized Wannier functions within the formalism of projector-augmented waves (PAW), which also includes the ultrasoft pseudopotential (USPP) approach.

Association of Elevated Platelets and C‐Reactive Protein With Severe Disease and Poor Survival in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

Wear and corrosion behaviour of HVOF-sprayed WC-CoCr coatings on Al alloys

, 2009
WC-CoCr coatings were HVOF-sprayed onto an AA6082T6 substrate. Thickness values between 50 μn and 150 μn were produced by stepwise increase of the number of torch scans. This increase makes the coatings not only thicker, but also denser. This is due both
