Optimal Viscous Damper Placement for Elastic-Plastic MDOF Structures Under Critical Double Impulse

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019
A new method for optimal viscous damper placement is proposed for elastic-plastic multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structures subjected to the critical double impulse as a representative of near-fault ground motions.

Early identification and severity prediction of acute respiratory infection (ESAR): a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background The outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 at the end of 2019 sounded the alarm for early inspection on acute respiratory infection (ARI). However, diagnosis pathway of ARI has still not reached a consensus and its impact on prognosis needs to be further ...

A practical scoring model to predict the occurrence of critical illness in hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 omicron infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
BackgroundThe variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have emerged repeatedly, especially the Omicron strain which is extremely infectious, so early identification of patients who may develop critical illness will aid in ...

Linear response at criticality [PDF]

Physical Review E, 2012
We study a set of cooperatively interacting units at criticality, and we prove with analytical and numerical arguments that they generate the same renewal non-Poisson intermittency as that produced by blinking quantum dots, thereby giving a stronger support to the results of earlier investigation.

The ubiquitin E3/E4 ligase, UBE4A, fine-tunes protein ubiquitylation and accumulation at sites of DNA damage facilitating double-strand break repair [PDF]

, 2018
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical DNA lesions that robustly activate the elaborate DNA damage response (DDR) network. We identified a critical player in DDR fine-tuning - the E3/E4 ubiquitin ligase, UBE4A.

Nonlinear response for external field and perturbation in the Vlasov system [PDF]

, 2014
A nonlinear response theory is provided by use of the transient linearization method in the spatially one-dimensional Vlasov systems. The theory inclusively gives responses to external fields and to perturbations for initial stationary states, and is ...

Characterization of multiple soluble immune checkpoints in individuals with different Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection status and dynamic changes during anti-tuberculosis treatment

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Immune checkpoints are crucial for the maintenance of subtle balance between self-tolerance and effector immune responses, but the role of soluble immune checkpoints (sICs) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) infection remains unknown.

Combined brain and thoracic trauma surgery in a hybrid emergency room system: a case report

BMC Surgery, 2021
Background A novel trauma workflow system called the hybrid emergency room (Hybrid ER), which combines a sliding CT scanner system with interventional radiology features (IVR-CT), was initially instituted in our emergency department in 2011.
