A Study of the Effects of Tornado Translation on Wind Loading Using a Potential Flow Model
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2022 This paper investigates the effects of tornado translation on pressure and overall force experienced by an airfoil subjected to tornado loading and presents a framework to reproduce the flow conditions and effects of a moving tornado.

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Introduction In recent years, the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare disease, has significantly progressed, improving patients' survival and overall quality of life. However, current SMA treatments are expensive, and some (nusinersen) are very inconvenient for patients.

A tornado daily impacts simulator for the central and southern United States
Meteorological Applications, 2020 In an average year (1979–2016), the United States experiences nearly 1,100 tornadoes, which cause a total of 68 fatalities. Annual fatality rates have decreased since the peak in the 1920s, but there is a concern that they could start to rise again with ...

Synthetic Aperture Radar as a Tool for Tornado Classification in Forested Areas
Canadian Journal of Remote SensingCanada’s tornado climatology has historically been challenging to accurately assess. Many Canadian tornadoes are currently rated on the Enhanced Fujita scale using treefall as a damage indicator, though this approach may occasionally underestimate ...
