Eurocode 3 Part 1.5: Plated Structures - new chances and developments

Interventional and Interdisciplinary Endoscopy - Developments and Chances.

and training. Thus the question for common training and certifications for specialized interventional endoscopy has to be raised. This also raises the question, whether it is cost effective to have performed screening endoscopy by highly specialized and trained gastroenterologists or if this relatively focused technique could be delegated and performed by specialized screening ‘colonoscopists’....

Ultimate Collapse Strength Assessment of Damaged Steel-Plated Structures

In an unpredictable world where human intervention or unexpected environmental conditions can prevail, damage can occur to manmade structures. Whilst structural design allows for redundancy, or a structural capability beyond the general working load of the structure, it is necessary to be able to analyse and understand the residual capability of a damaged structure to ensure the safety of perso...

Some New Developments in Small Area Estimation

Small area estimation has received a lot of attention in recent years due to growing demand for reliable small area statistics. Traditional area-specific estimators may not provide adequate precision because sample sizes in small areas are seldom large enough. This makes it necessary to employ indirect estimators based on linking models. Basic area level and unit level models have been extensiv...

New Chances for Deep Linguistic Processing

Recent developments in deep linguistic processing give rise to renewed optimism concerning the practical applicability of advanced grammatical analysis. For HPSG parsing a breakthrough in efficiency was achieved through a new form of international collaboration that lead to improved combinations of methods in a rather systematic way. Yet efficiency is just one of the obstacles to the utilizatio...
