The stochastic growth of metal whiskers

open access: yes, 2017
The phenomenon of spontaneously growing metal whiskers (MW) raises significant reliability concerns due to its related arcing and shorting in electric equipment. The growth kinetics of MW remains poorly predictable.

Cis‐regulatory and long noncoding RNA alterations in breast cancer – current insights, biomarker utility, and the critical need for functional validation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The noncoding region of the genome plays a key role in regulating gene expression, and mutations within these regions are capable of altering it. Researchers have identified multiple functional noncoding mutations associated with increased cancer risk in the genome of breast cancer patients.

Fuzzy Reliability Theory Based on Membership Function [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2016
In this study, it is considered that the shape of membership function and the values of parameters are arbitrary, hence reliability parameters will be arbitrary, and some data are even absurd from the point of view of real life practice. An applied fuzzy

Super-Instantons and the Reliability of Perturbation Theory in Non-Abelian Models

open access: yes, 1993
In dimension $D\leq 2$ the low temperature behavior of systems enjoying a continuous symmetry is dominated by super-instantons: classical configurations of arbitrarily low energy.

LDAcoop: Integrating non‐linear population dynamics into the analysis of clonogenic growth in vitro

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Limiting dilution assays (LDAs) quantify clonogenic growth by seeding serial dilutions of cells and scoring wells for colony formation. The fraction of negative wells is plotted against cells seeded and analyzed using the non‐linear modeling of LDAcoop.

Probabilistic method to determine the overall rock block failure based on failure mode

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2016
In rock slopes or underground excavations, due to the structure of the cutting surface, rock typically exhibits strong random properties, such as the structure of the surface geometry and mechanical parameters showed strong randomness, resulting in a ...

The reliability problem for reliabilism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
According to process reliabilism, a belief produced by a reliable belief-forming process is justified. I introduce problems for this theory on any account of reliability.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
