An analysis of the logistics performance index of EU countries with an integrated MCDM model

open access: yesEconomics and Business Review, 2019
Countries can check the performance of their logistics’ activities to determine their competitiveness in trade logistics. One way to check these performances is to analyze the country’s LPI value in detail which is released by the WB every two years ...

PIV-FlowDiffuser:Transfer-learning-based denoising diffusion models for PIV

open access: yes
Deep learning algorithms have significantly reduced the computational time and improved the spatial resolution of particle image velocimetry~(PIV). However, the models trained on synthetic datasets might have a degraded performance on practical particle images due to domain gaps.

Impact of Prostatectomy on Quality of Life: A Comprehensive Study on Changes in Patients With Prostate Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urological Nursing, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Radical prostatectomy (RP) is a primary treatment for localised prostate cancer that can profoundly impact patients' quality of life (QoL), particularly in areas related to sexual health and emotional well‐being. The study sample included 130 prostate cancer patients who underwent RP, with assessments conducted before surgery and at 6‐ and 12 ...

Experimental study on the effect of chitosan dosage on flocculation efficiency of water extract of white peony(壳聚糖投加量对白芍水提液絮凝效果的影响研究)

open access: yesZhejiang Daxue xuebao. Lixue ban, 2017
采用紫外/可见分光光度计、激光粒度分析仪、微电泳仪等,探究壳聚糖投加量对白芍水提液絮凝率、分形维数、粒度分布、ζ电位的影响.实验结果显示,壳聚糖投加量为3.2 mL(0.31 g• L-1)时,絮凝率达到最大值80.88%,此时总黄酮损失率为10.67%,上清液平均粒径为5.42 µm,ζ最接近零电位,为—1.168 2 mV,絮体分形维数为1.463;应用激光粒子测速(PIV)系统对絮体的沉降过程进行分析,建立了沉降过程的数学模型,絮凝过程的最大沉降速度为0.324 1 mm • s-1 ...

On the use of helium-filled soap bubbles for large-scale tomographic PIV in wind tunnel experiments

open access: yes, 2015
The flow-tracing fidelity of sub-millimetre diameter helium-filled soap bubbles (HFSB) for low-speed aerodynamics is studied. The main interest of using HFSB in relation to micron-size droplets is the large amount of scattered light, enabling larger ...

A Novel Microfluidic System for 3D Epidermis and Full‐Thickness Skin Growth for Nanoparticle Safety Assessment

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 6, 9 February 2026.
This work presents a novel, dynamically perfused, configurable microfluidic system for epidermis‐only (E and full‐thickness skin (FT SoC) growth, emulating human skin structure and barrier function. Upon TiO2 nanoparticle exposure, the system reveals compromised barrier integrity, reduced metabolic activity, increased permeability, and chemokine‐driven

On Improvement of Characteristic Instability and Internal Flow in Mixed Flow Pumps

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008
The difference of pump characteristics between two kinds of mixed flow pumps with low specific speed of 350 (min-1, m3/min, m), which have the same impeller and the different diffuser vanes, is presented in the present paper.

Identification of PKN2 and MOB4 as Coordinators of Collective Cell Migration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Through a genetic screen, PKN2 and MOB4 are identified as two proteins regulating the healing of an epithelial model wound. PKN2 promotes collective cell migration by maintaining the cohesion of cell monolayers from their lateral junctions, whereas MOB4 restrains collective cell migration and provides a lamellipodial cue for front‐rear polarity in ...
