ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Identification of damage-expected members of truss structures using frequency response function
A damaged member in a truss structure leads to a variation in the initial responses of its adjacent members. A flexibility-based approach extracting from the modal data should be implemented as one of the structural damage detection methods.

Uncertain Frequency Responses of Clamp-Pipeline Systems Using an Interval-Based Method
Due to manufacturing errors and material deteriorations in the metal rubber of clamps, the clamp stiffness of the pipeline is uncertain. This paper presents a non-intrusive multi-dimensional Chebyshev polynomial approximation method (M-CPAM) to evaluate ...

ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

A Study on Frequency Response Functions in Pavement Engineering
Mechanical impedance (MI) defines the ability of a system to vibrate as a consequence of force application. In the recent years, the correlation of this parameter with tire-road noise and other characteristics has gained certain attention.
