Gravitational Shielding Effects in Gauge Theory of Gravity

open access: yes, 2003
In 1992, E.E.Podkletnov and R.Nieminen find that, under certain conditions, ceramic superconductor with composite structure has revealed weak shielding properties against gravitational force. In classical Newton's theory of gravity and even in Einstein's

Uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis of a nuclear thermal propulsion reactor startup sequence

open access: yesFrontiers in Nuclear Engineering
The research presented in this article describes progress in applying stochastic methods, uncertainty quantification, parametric studies, and variance-based sensitivity analysis (also known as Sobol sensitivity analysis) to a full-core model of a nuclear

Durability assessment of mechanochemically activated geopolymer concrete with a low molarity alkali solution

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
The prevailing practices of geopolymer concrete (GC) preparation use a high concentration of alkali activators, which is uneconomical. It is imperative to develop GC of low-concentration activators with enhanced durability for field implementation ...

Suppression of intrinsic neutron background in the Multi-Grid detector

open access: yes, 2018
One of the key requirements for neutron scattering instruments is the Signal-to-Background ratio (SBR). This is as well a design driving requirement for many instruments at the European Spallation Source (ESS), which aspires to be the brightest neutron ...

Measurements and Monte-Carlo simulations of the particle self-shielding effect of B4C grains in neutron shielding concrete

open access: yes, 2018
A combined measurement and Monte-Carlo simulation study was carried out in order to characterize the particle self-shielding effect of B4C grains in neutron shielding concrete. Several batches of a specialized neutron shielding concrete, with varying B4C

THE PILE SHIELD. [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1902
It has often happened, even in the best hands, that the patient has been severely burned, when the ordinary clamp and cautery method has been employed in the operation for piles, causing the surgeon no end of annoyance. To avoid this, I have devised a little instrument that eliminates such accidents; this instrument is small, inexpensive, portable ...

To shield or not to shield: shielding may have unintended effects on patient dose in CT

open access: yesEuropean Radiology, 2023
Abstract Objectives The aim of the patient out-of-plane shield is to reduce the patient radiation dose. Its effect on tube current modulation was evaluated with the out-of-plane shield visible in the localizer but absent in the scan range in chest CT with different CT scanners. Methods

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.
