Assessment of Soiling Dynamics and Cleaning Efficiency for Photovoltaic Modules Under Different Dust Environments

Solar RRL, EarlyView.
A laboratory framework reproduces site‐specific soiling and cleaning dynamics of photovoltaic modules using real dusts from contrasting climates. Accelerated humidity–temperature cycling replicates 1 month of outdoor cementation in only ≈ 1.5 days.

Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Subjective Visual Vertical Can be an Effective Tool to Evaluate Vestibular Function of Stapedotomy

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if the subjective visual vertical/horizontal (SVV/SVH) can be used to evaluate the otolith organ of otosclerosis and stapedotomy. Design A total of 19 patients who were diagnosed with otosclerosis and underwent surgical treatment in our hospital were collected.

Does a rising tide lift all boats?: Evidence from a multicity randomized trial of procedural justice in hot spots policing

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent multicity procedural justice (PJ) training experiment at crime hot spots showed that police could be trained to behave in procedurally just ways, and that this behavioral change could lead to reductions in arrests, improved citizen evaluations of the police, and decreases in crime.

Flow‐controlled expiration improves gas exchange in anaesthetised horses undergoing orthopaedic surgery

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Flow‐controlled expiration (FLEX) has been shown to significantly enhance oxygenation in horses under laboratory conditions. Objective This study aims to corroborate these findings by evaluating the effects of FLEX on gas exchange in a randomised clinical trial involving a large population of clinical horses undergoing orthopaedic ...

Groundwater Transport in a Glaciomarine Aquitard: Paleosalinity and Landslide Implications

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Transient 1D modeling of both [Cl] and δ18O demonstrates that advection and diffusion contribute to solute transport in porewater of glaciomarine Champlain Sea muds. Samples with the highest sensitivity (>30) for landslide hazard occur in the current leached zone.

Tandem Approach for Transvenous Lead Extraction: Efficacy, Safety, and Operational Learning Curve

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The need for transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is rising due to increased cardiovascular device implantation and an aging population. While the superior access is standard, complex cases may benefit from the Tandem approach, combining femoral and superior access to improve efficacy and safety.

Evaluating the Probability of Survival and Damage Mechanisms of Resin Matrix Ceramics: Insights Into Wear Progression and Surface Damage Under Fatigue

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the probability of survival, failure modes, and fatigue‐induced wear progression, as well as assessed damage tolerance under simulated mastication in two resin matrix ceramics (polymer‐infiltrated ceramic networks (PICN) and resin nanoceramic (RNC)).

Effect of Occlusal Adjustment and Subsequent Repolishing on the Translucency Parameter, Contact Angle, and Flexural Strength of Different Types of Glazed Monolithic Zirconia

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study evaluated the effects of material and surface condition (glazed vs. polished after simulated occlusal adjustment) on translucency parameter, contact angle, and flexural strength of four monolithic zirconia. Materials and Methods Disk‐shaped specimens (n = 80, Ø12 × 1 mm) were fabricated from four monolithic zirconia ...
