International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), an independent international organization established in 1925, develops, maintains, and elaborates radiological protection standards, legislation, and guidelines. United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) provides scientific evidence. World Health Organization (WHO) and International Atomic Energy...

Two experimental studies were undertaken to investigate the processes of reincorporation and redistribution of trace evidence on garments when worn by a suspect or a victim (reincorporation) or after the garments have been seized and packaged for subsequent forensic analysis (redistribution). The first experiment utilised UV powder, an established proxy for geoforensic trace particulates and th...

Two ways of to enhance the heat insulation cold-protecting garments are studied using mathematical model, which describes coupled transport temperature, humidity, and bound condensed water. The model is developed in a one-dimensional formulation. thermal radiation explicitly considered by subdivision flux into radiative conduction parts. utilized study improvement heat-insulating properties col...

In this paper, we propose a semi-supervised learning method to simultaneous segmentation and labeling of parts in 3D garments. The key idea in this work is to analyze 3D garments using semi-supervised learning method which can label parts in various 3D garments. We first develop an objective function based on Conditional Random Field (CRF) model to learn the prior knowledge of garment component...

The German Meteorological Service (DWD) is charged with tasks of radiation protection by the Law of the Deutscher Wetterdienst (1955, 1998), the Precautionary Radiation Protection Act (1986) and the Radiation Protection Ordinance (2001). Since 1955 the DWD is responsible for the surveillance of radioactivity in the atmosphere realized by measuring the radioactivity as well as analyzing the mete...

The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of compression garments on recovery following damaging exercise. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted using studies that evaluated the efficacy of compression garments on measures of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), muscular strength, muscular power and creatine kinase (CK). Studies were extracted from a literature search...

Modeling of realistic garments is essential for creating believable virtual environments. Sketch-based modeling of garments presents an appealing, easy to use alternative to the established modeling approaches which are time consuming and require significant tailoring expertise. Unfortunately, the results created using existing sketch-based methods lack realism. Driven by human perception of ga...
