Shoot or don't shoot? Why police officers are more inclined to shoot when they are anxious. [PDF]

open access: yesEmotion, 2012
We investigated the effect of anxiety on police officers' shooting decisions. Thirty-six police officers participated and executed a low- and high-anxiety video-based test that required them to shoot or not shoot at rapidly appearing suspects that either had a gun and "shot," or had no gun and "surrendered." Anxiety was manipulated by turning on (high ...

Determination of the adaptive and productive clones of poplar at four-year short-rotation system [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2006
Poplar as fast growing tree with a great potential of coppicing at consecutive periods is the most suitable tree species to provide wood at short period. The high volume of wood at short periods (2-5years) produced under the short rotation system is used

Effects of Solar Radiation on Dry Matter Distribution and Root Morphology of High Yielding Maize Cultivars

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
The root system connects the plant with the soil, which is a key factor in determining the utilization of soil resources and plant growth potential. Solar radiation can change maize shoot and root growth and affect grain formation.

Local Convergence Behaviour of Generalized Gauss-Newton Multiple Shooting, Single Shooting and Differential Dynamic Programming [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We revisit three classical numerical methods for solving unconstrained optimal control problems - multiple shooting, single shooting, and differential dynamic programming - and examine their local convergence behaviour. In particular, we show that all three methods converge with the same linear rate if a Gauss-Newton (GN), or more general a Generalized

The significance of shooting angle in seal shooting

open access: yesAnimal Welfare
Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between shooting angle to the head and animal welfare outcomes in the hunt of young harp seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus). The study population consisted of young harp seals belonging to the Greenland Sea harp seal population.

Modifications in FLAP's second cytosolic loop influence 5‐LOX interaction, inhibitor binding, and leukotriene formation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

The linearization methods as a basis to derive the relaxation and the shooting methods [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
This chapter investigates numerical solution of nonlinear two-point boundary value problems. It establishes a connection between three important, seemingly unrelated, classes of iterative methods, namely: the linearization methods, the relaxation methods (finite difference methods), and the shooting methods. It has recently been demonstrated that using

Cellular liquid biopsy provides unique chances for disease monitoring, preclinical model generation and therapy adjustment in rare salivary gland cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We quantified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of 62 patients with various cancer types and generated CTC‐derived tumoroid models from two salivary gland cancer patients. Cellular liquid biopsy‐derived information enabled molecular genetic assessment of systemic disease heterogeneity and functional testing for therapy selection in both ...
