Necrotizing fasciitis is an uncommon skin infection characterized by rapidly progressing, extensive necrosisinvolving the soft tissues and superficial fascia. It begins with non-specific local cutaneous signs, posing adiagnostic difficulty for clinicians, evolving into life-threatening systemic toxicity. Trauma more oftenknown to be a causal infective etiology. The presence of underlying comorb...

A self-organizing feature map (SOM) was used to represent vehicle-following and to analyze the heterogeneities in vehicle-following behavior. The SOM was constructed in such a way that the prototype vectors represented vehicle-following stimuli (the follower's velocity, relative velocity, and gap) while the output signals represented the response (the follower's acceleration). Vehicle trajector...

Nowadays, the importance of the vehicles and its dramatic effects on human life is no secret. The use of trailers with multiple axels for transporting bulky and heavy equipment is essential. Increase in trailers axles which results increment of wheels, needs considerations in order to increase in transporting speed, maneuverability, safety, better control and path following accurately.  Therefo...

ABSTRACT – Inter-vehicle and vehicle to roadside communication (V2X communication) allow both passenger safety and driving comfort to be improved significantly. For example, a vehicle detecting an icy road could inform following vehicles and thereby prevent accidents. Vehicle to roadside communication could be used near construction sites to warn the vehicle driver about reduced number of lanes...
