Temporally and Spatially Resolved Reflected Overpressure Measurements in the Extreme Near Field

open access: yesSensors, 2023
The design of blast-resistant structures and protective systems requires a firm understanding of the loadings imparted to structures by blast waves. While empirical methods can reliably predict these loadings in the far field, there is currently a lack ...

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Dispersion management in highly nonlinear, carbon disulfide filled holey fibers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study various fiber designs which incorporate a highly nonlinear liquid, carbon disulfide, with the aim of designing a structure with the highest possible nonlinearity and at the same time a low and flattened dispersion at telecom wavelengths, as ...

Dispersion-Diversity Multicore Fiber Signal Processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Beyond playing a primary role in high-capacity communication networks, multicore optical fibers can bring many advantages to optical and microwave signal processing, as not only space but also chromatic dispersion are introduced as new degrees of freedom.

Mathematical Study of Dispersion of Nano Biosensors in an Artery with Multiple Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences
This research article deals with the usefulness of nanobiosensors to treat multiple stenosis in an artery. Nanobiosensors dispersed in blood are recognised as nanofluids, and their properties have been used to define the mathematical model.

Leukemia and Exposure to Potential Benzene Sources in Children From the Mexico City Metropolitan Area, 2010–2021: A Geospatial Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Skill Dispersion and Firm Productivity: An Analysis with Employer-Employee Matched Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the relation between workers' skill dispersion and firm productivity using a unique data set of Italian manufacturing firms with individual records on all their workers. Our measure of skill is the individual worker's effect from a wage equation.

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Liquid dispersion in packed columns: experiments and numerical modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In order to optimize the design of gas-liquid packed columns used in distillation or in absorption processes, it is of high importance to be able to predict liquid dispersion.
