This paper presents a study on the effect of unit-cell geometrical parameters in predicting elastic properties of a typical wood plastic composite (WPC).The ultimate goal was obtaining the optimal values of representative volume element (RVE) parameters to accurately predict the mechanical behavior of the WPC.For each unit cell, Pencil Sharpeners d
Estimating the solar wind pressure at comet 67P from Rosetta magnetic field measurements
Aims: The solar wind pressure is an important parameter of space weather, which plays a crucial role in the interaction of the solar wind with the planetary plasma environment.Here we investigate the possibility of determining a solar wind pressure proxy from Rosetta magnetic field data, measured deep inside the induced magnetosphere of comet 67P/C
An Epidemiological Study of Acute Pancreatitis in Rural Population
Introduction: Acute pancreatitis is a common surgical emergency.Alcohol abuse and biliary tract diseases are etiological in the majority of the cases.The diagnosis is made by clinical examination which is supported by laboratory investigations and imaging studies.Most of the acute pancreatitis are of Button Covers mild to moderate severity and have
CAN CLEAR ALIGNERS THERAPY ACHIEVE MAXILLARY EXPANSION IN PATIENTS WITH TRANSVERSE MALOCCLUSIONS? A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Background: Clear aligners have become a pivotal advancement in orthodontic treatment, offering a viable alternative to traditional metal braces.Despite the reported benefits of clear aligners such as being more hygienic and aesthetic, some orthodontists remain sceptical about the effectiveness of aligners in achieving treatment goals.This uncertai
Machine learning prediction of combat basic training injury from 3D body shape images.
IntroductionAthletes and military personnel are both at risk of disabling injuries due to extreme physical activity.A method to predict which individuals might be more susceptible to injury would be valuable, especially in the military where basic Ear Phone Board recruits may be discharged from service due to injury.We postulate that certain body c
