Critical band masking in optic flow [PDF]
Visual processing has been widely investigated with narrow band stimuli at low contrasts. We used a masking paradigm to examine how visual sensitivity under these conditions compares with the perception of the direction of heading in real scenes (i.e., with dynamic natural images at high contrasts).

ABSTRACT Background Nurses are central to cancer care for children and adolescents, yet no comprehensive synthesis has defined essential core competencies for pediatric oncology nursing (PON) practice internationally, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

Gradient Flow Line Near Birth-Death Critical Points [PDF]
Near a birth-death critical point in a one-parameter family of gradient flows, there are precisely two Morse critical points of index difference one on the birth side.

Molecular transport through a bottleneck driven by external force [PDF]
The transport phenomena of Lennard-Jones molecules through a structural bottleneck driven by an external force are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations.

ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

Intermittency and Critical Scaling in Annular Couette Flow
The onset of turbulence in subcritical shear flows is one of the most puzzling manifestations of critical phenomena in fluid dynamics. The present study focuses on the Couette flow inside an infinitely long annular geometry where the inner rod moves with

Critical characteristics of an airlift pump for dredging
There are many factors that affect an airlift pump for dredging. In actual applications, if these factors cannot be fully considered, the performance of the airlift pump will be reduced. In view of this, based on the critical model of the water–solid two-

We study hierarchical network models which have recently been introduced to approximate the Chalker-Coddington model for the integer quantum Hall effect (A.G. Galstyan and M.E. Raikh, PRB 56 1422 (1997); Arovas et al., PRB 56, 4751 (1997)).

Free-surface flows with near-critical flow conditions [PDF]
Open channel flow situations with near-critical flow conditions are often characterized by the development of free-surface instabilities (i.e., undulations). The paper develops a review of several near-critical flow situations. Experimental results are compared with ideal-fluid flow calculations. The analysis is completed by a series of new experiments.
