[Objectives]In order to more effectively protect the surface ship seamen from the shock injury caused by underwater non-contact explosion,[Methods]the shock environments and safety limits for seafmen aboard surface ship are analyzed firstly.Then,the design method for human anti-shock flooring is put forward,and a new type of anti-shock elastic floo

The system under study in this work is a self-igniting pile of solid material.To predict and understand the effect of steep changes of the state variables on such systems, a reaction-diffusion model is employed.These systems can exhibit complex oscillatory behaviour, and changes in ambient conditions over time may strongly impact the inherent oscil

Abstract Background Herpes zoster (HZ) is one of the most common skin diseases caused by viruses.Facial HZ develops when the varicella-zoster virus affects the trigeminal nerve, and alveolar osteonecrosis is a rare complication.However, the exact pathogenesis of postherpetic alveolar osteonecrosis remains unclear.Case description We encountered a p

This study builds on existing literature of glacier change estimation in polar regions and is a continuation of efforts aimed at unlocking the information encapsulated in archival aerial photography of Antarctic Peninsula glaciers.Historical aerial imagery acquired in 1957 over three marine-terminating glaciers at Lindblad Cove on the West Coast of

Diabetes mellitus predisposes the host to bacterial infections.Moreover, hyperglycemia has been shown to be an independent risk factor for respiratory infections.The luminal surface of airway epithelia is covered by a thin layer of airway surface liquid (ASL) and is normally sterile despite constant exposure to bacteria.The balance between bacteria
