Temperature is an important source of information in our interactions with the environment but it is rarely built into virtual reality and simulation. In this paper, the findings from several of our experiments are brought together to discuss the efficacy of adding temperature information in simulation applications. In the first, Peltier tiles were added to an exoskeleton device designed to pro...

A community-based sample of Australian female twins aged 18 to 45 years was mailed an extensive Health and Lifestyle Questionnaire (HLQ) that covered a wide range of personality and behavioral measures. Included ...

The possible impact of various Arctic polar vortex regimes for the stratosphere on Northern Hemisphere extratropics has not been fully understood. Previous study classified stratospheric to six using k-mean clustering algorithm based ERA5 reanalysis. stability and robustness classification is further verified with a much longer model dataset historical integrations from CESM2-WACCM.

The treatment tactics for subclavian artery occlusion include the more commonly used endovascular therapy rather than surgical intervention. We present a case of a 61-year-old woman with dialysis-dependent chronic renal failure who experienced left finger necrosis in the left upper extremity. To salvage the limb, we performed femoro-axillary (fem-ax) artery bypass using an autologous saphenous ...
