Clinical trials with endothelin receptor antagonists: What went wrong and where can we improve? [PDF]
, 2012 In the early 1990s, within three years of cloning of endothelin receptors, orally active endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs) were tested in humans and the first clinical trial of ERA therapy in humans was published in 1995.

Deformation Behavior of La2O3‐Doped Copper during Equal Channel Angular Pressing
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.By additions of strengthening elements and/or structure optimization, the mechanical properties of copper can be increased while keeping favorable electric conductivity. By combining addition of La2O3 and processing by equal channel angular pressing, substructure development is achieved, leading to increase in microhardness to more than double the ...

Reciprocal Collision Avoidance for General Nonlinear Agents using Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Finding feasible and collision-free paths for multiple nonlinear agents is challenging in the decentralized scenarios due to limited available information of other agents and complex dynamics constraints. In this paper, we propose a fast multi-agent collision avoidance algorithm for general nonlinear agents with continuous action space, where each ...
