In this work, a monorail vehicle-bridge coupling (VBC) model capable of accurately considering curve alignment and superelevation is established based on curvilinear moving coordinate system, to study the VBC vibration straddle curved girder bridge relevant factors influencing VBC. While taking Chongqing Jiao Xin line as an example, program compiled using Fortran, where reliability algorithm ve...

No-reflow is an undesirable result of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) [1]. Intracoronary (IC) vasodilators such as verapamil, nitroprusside, or adenosine are being administered for the treatment of no-reflow via the guiding catheter [2], but sometimes distal flow restoration is not satisfactory especially in patients with TIMI 0 flow. Vasoactive drug administration at the distal part ...

BACKGROUND Inertial motion capture systems are used in many applications such as measuring the movement quality in stroke survivors. The absence of clinical effectiveness and usability evidence in these assistive technologies into rehabilitation has delayed the transition of research into clinical practice. Recently, a new inertial motion capture system was developed in a project, called INTERA...

We wish to respond to the commentary of de la Iglesia et al. [1]. Studies comparing sleep in different communities have different goals. One frequent goal has been to determine how sleep is affected by manipulating specific ‘modern’ conditions. Many studies have investigated the effect of artificial light and electronic entertainment. Such studies have clearly shown that light, particularly blu...

A bay configuration arranged along a central spine and served by an automated monorail material handling system are common designs for the layout and material handling system in new semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities. This paper investigates the facility design problem in semiconductor fabrication facilities and proposes a procedure to determine the optimal spine layout design given a d...
