Probabilistic Fragmentation and Effective Power Law

open access: yes, 1996
A simple fragmentation model is introduced and analysed. We show that, under very general conditions, an effective power law for the mass distribution arises with realistic exponent.

Longevity and pleural mesothelioma: age-period-cohort analysis of incidence data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program, 1973–2013

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2018
Objective This study investigates the hypothesis that an increasing fraction of incident pleural mesothelioma (PM) in the US population may be related to longevity, i.e., to expansion of the population over age 75 years with an age-related elevation in ...

Recent trends in revision knee arthroplasty in Germany

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We aimed to answer the following questions: (1) How did numbers of revision knee arthroplasty procedures develop in Germany over the last decade compared to primary TKA? (2) How high was the percentage of septic interventions in knee prosthesis revisions?

Expurgation Exponent of Leaked Information in Privacy Amplification for Binary Sources

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the privacy amplification problem in which Eve can observe the uniform binary source through a binary erasure channel (BEC) or a binary symmetric channel (BSC).

Crumpling wires in two dimensions

open access: yes, 2008
An energy-minimal simulation is proposed to study the patterns and mechanical properties of elastically crumpled wires in two dimensions. We varied the bending rigidity and stretching modulus to measure the energy allocation, size-mass exponent, and the ...

100 % Fruit juice and measures of glucose control and insulin sensitivity: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science, 2017
Studies on the effects of consuming 100 % fruit juice on measures of glycaemic control are conflicting. The purpose of the present study was to systematically review and quantitatively summarise results from randomised controlled trials (RCT) examining ...

Revision arthroplasty after unicompartimental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Background Unicompartimental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a promising and increasing application to treat unicompartimental knee osteoarthritis. However, revision arthroplasty numbers after UKA are unknown. Therefore, aim of this study was to determine the

The Oslo model, hyperuniformity, and the quenched Edwards-Wilkinson model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present simulations of the 1-dimensional Oslo rice pile model in which the critical height at each site is randomly reset after each toppling. We use the fact that the stationary state of this sandpile model is hyperuniform to reach system of sizes $>

Kolmogorov Dispersion for Turbulence in Porous Media: A Conjecture

open access: yes, 2006
We will utilise the self-avoiding walk (SAW) mapping of the vortex line conformations in turbulence to get the Kolmogorov scale dependence of energy dispersion from SAW statistics, and the knowledge of the disordered fractal geometries on the SAW ...
