Use-wear Analysis of Lithic Tools:

, 2022
Use-wear analysis of lithic artefacts is based on macro and microscopic observation of traces (such as scaling, rounding, striation and polish) that appear on objects when they are manufactured and used. Results are interpreted in terms of cinematics and worked materials through analogic reasoning in reference to experimental and ethnoarchaeological ...

Technological and behavioural complexity in expedient industries: The importance of use-wear analysis for understanding flake assemblages

, 2019
Expedient lithic technology has been described as unchanging and without or very limited presence of formal tool types. However, this premise seems to limit the discussion on technological and behavioural complexity when studying amorphous flake ...

Multiscale functional analysis of wear: A fractal model of the grinding process [PDF]

, 2005
In this paper, we propose to create a fractal function defined by an infinite series to model worn surfaces obtained by a grinding process. In this series, each elementary term characterizes a wear process at a given scale. This series is only defined by

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

Therapeutic 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.
