Analysis of bridge structure selection using a hybrid decision-making technique [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering
Implementation of sustainability principles in civil engineering has increased the substantive range of bridge engineering. The consideration of additional criteria, in particular ecological and social ones, requires the design process to be supported by

Differential Imaging with a Multicolor Detector Assembly: A New ExoPlanet Finder Concept

open access: yes, 2004
Simultaneous spectral differential imaging is a high contrast technique by which subtraction of simultaneous images reduces noise from atmospheric speckles and optical aberrations. Small non-common wave front errors between channels can seriously degrade

Assessing National Sustainability Transitions in Europe: A Dynamic MCDA and Clustering‐Based Approach

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study evaluates the sustainable development of 42 European countries using a multi‐criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approach, based on 29 indicators covering the economic, social, and environmental pillars. All three pillars are assessed both individually and in consolidated form to provide a comprehensive view of countries ...

A CRISPR-Cas12a—Based platform for ultrasensitive, rapid, and highly specific detection of Mycoplasma pneumonia in clinical application

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP), which is responsible for a majority of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children, has been largely underestimated. Here, we coupled multiple cross displacement amplification (MCDA) technique with CRISPR-Cas12a-based ...

Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...

A multicriteria analysis of photovoltaic systems: Energetic, environmental, and economic assessments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The development of photovoltaic (PV) energy has led to rising efficiencies, better reliability, and falling prices. A multicriteria analysis (MCA) of PV systems is proposed in this paper in order to evaluate the sustainability of alternative projects ...

Land Use and Economic Trade‐Offs of Large‐Scale Solar in Agricultural Regions: Marginal National Impacts, Significant Regional Variations

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large‐scale solar generation is critical for energy transitions. In Australia, increased solar production to meet emission targets means its land footprint increasingly competes with agricultural land. Understanding the scale and location of agricultural land use change and potential profitability losses from large‐scale solar farms is ...

Perinatal outcomes of expectant management versus fetal reduction in triplet pregnancies: A single‐center retrospective cohort study in Korea

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Our findings highlight that adverse outcomes, including early fetal loss, preterm birth, and peripartum complications, remain frequent in the natural course of triplet gestations. Fetal reduction, when considered in the context of triplet pregnancies, appears to be a relatively safe procedure and may be discussed as a management option in selected ...

Landslide susceptibility mapping using multi-criteria evaluation techniques in Chittagong Metropolitan Area, Bangladesh [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Landslides are a common hazard in the highly urbanized hilly areas in Chittagong Metropolitan Area (CMA), Bangladesh. The main cause of the landslides is torrential rain in short period of time.

Monochorionic twin pregnancies conceived through assisted reproduction: Maternal and perinatal clinical outcomes

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ART‐conceived monochorionic twin pregnancies are associated with a higher burden of maternal complications compared with spontaneous conception. While fetal and neonatal outcomes did not differ significantly between groups after adjustment for relevant confounders, ART‐conceived pregnancies showed higher point estimates for several adverse outcomes ...
