ABSTRACT The reliability of flood event simulations is a crucial aspect in terms of saving lives. The worst flood scenarios derive from possible dam failures. For earthen dams, the breaching mechanism, triggered by overtopping or piping, is affected by several modelling uncertainties, which propagate downstream and may influence flood hazard mapping ...

Illustration of the main findings of the study. Abstract This study investigated the influence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) on physical performance in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following a combined training (CT) program. A total of 51 older adults participated in the study divided into DPN (n = 24) and non‐DPN (n = 27)

Adhesions’ high occurrence rates and high morbidity render them a critical challenge to be addressed. Current prevention methods, such as physical barriers, have many limitations, resulting in inconsistent safety and efficacy. This study demonstrates the potential for sprayable polymeric materials as an adhesion barrier.

ABSTRACT Background Pressure injuries during the perioperative period can adversely affect postoperative outcomes and patient recovery. An essential component of prevention and patient care is systematic risk assessment. The Munro Pressure Ulcer Risk Assessment Scale is a perioperative‐specific tool designed to evaluate patients' risk for pressure ...

Numerical Investigation of Bored Tunnelling Effects on Pile‐Supported Superstructures
ABSTRACT Tunnelling in urban environments can significantly affect existing buried structures such as pile foundations. However, the current understanding of how tunnelling‐induced ground movements influence the stability and serviceability of piles remains limited. This knowledge gap presents potential risks that must be addressed during tunnel design
