Three years with a knife stuck in the brain
Cranial stabbing injuries penetrating the brain are not commonly encountered. The cases in which the knife is retained constitute a challenge to the neurosurgeon. When a long-term permanence occurs, the reaction to the presence of the foreign body causes

Stab resistance of bulletproof vests. A conceptual model of test bench [PDF]
This paper presents a conceptual model of a stand to test the physico-mechanical characteristics of materials used in the soft panels of bulletproof vests for their stab resistance to cold weapons having a sharpened blade portion firmly and rigidly ...

The Tree Stabbing Number is not Monotone [PDF]
Let $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ be a set of points and $T$ be a spanning tree of $P$. The \emph{stabbing number} of $T$ is the maximum number of intersections any line in the plane determines with the edges of $T$. The \emph{tree stabbing number} of $P$ is the minimum stabbing number of any spanning tree of $P$. We prove that the tree stabbing number is

Hydrostatic bearings excel in high‐precision applications, but their performance hinges on a continuous external supply. This study evaluates various material combinations for sliding surfaces to mitigate damage during supply failures or misalignment and to discover the most effective materials identified for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of

Stab Wound Extension for the Eviscerated Small Bowel with Severe Ischemic Changes [PDF]
An abdominal stab wound with evisceration is an indication of an emergency laparotomy. We encountered a case of a very severe ischemic change in the eviscerated small bowel as a result of stabbing. The patient was considered to have a high possibility of

Profilometry‐Based Indentation Plastometry Testing of Tungsten at High Temperature
Profilometry‐based indentation plastometry (PIP) allows extraction of stress‐strain curves from indent profiles. Tungsten is of industrial interest but is brittle at room temperature. It does plastically deform at higher temperatures. Excellent agreement is obtained between the two techniques in this regime, but PIP also gives plasticity ...

Parsing Argumentation Structures in Persuasive Essays
In this article, we present a novel approach for parsing argumentation structures. We identify argument components using sequence labeling at the token level and apply a new joint model for detecting argumentation structures.

Holomorphic generating functions for invariants counting coherent sheaves on Calabi-Yau 3-folds [PDF]
Let X be a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, T=D^b(coh(X)) the derived category of coherent sheaves on X, and Stab(T) the complex manifold of Bridgeland stability conditions Z on T. It is conjectured that one can define rational numbers J^a(Z) for Z in Stab(T) and a in the numerical Grothendieck group K(T) generalizing Donaldson-Thomas invariants, which `count' Z ...
