Ulnar Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Revisited

CONTEXT Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) insufficiency of the elbow can be a debilitating injury that often prevents athletes from competing effectively. The overhead athlete is particularly susceptible to this injury because the anterior bundle of the UCL is the primary restraint to the valgus stress that is created during the throwing motion. Repetitive trauma from constant overhead or throwin...

Understanding Cyber Collateral Damage

INTRODUCTION In conventional (kinetic) U.S. warfare, there exists a standard methodology for identifying and assessing collateral damage (i.e. accidental damage to civilian targets).

The evaders might follow deterministic routes or Markov chains, or they may be reactive, i.e., able to change their routes in order to avoid sensors pla...
