Ureteroscopic lithotripsy. [PDF]
, 1997 There is a wide array of endoscopic lithotriptors presently available. Each of these has its own advantages and disadvantages. No single lithotriptor is suitable for all applications and none can meet the goal of fragmenting all calculi while remaining ...

On the Correspondence between Nested Calculi and Semantic Systems for Intuitionistic Logics [PDF]
, 2021 This paper studies the relationship between labelled and nested calculi for propositional intuitionistic logic, first-order intuitionistic logic with non-constant domains and first-order intuitionistic logic with constant domains. It is shown that Fitting's nested calculi naturally arise from their corresponding labelled calculi--for each of the ...
