BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Infection is the most common cause of death among burnt patients and infection control decrease the rate of mortality. The use of sticky mat can control contamination by preventing the entrance microorganisms into the hospital wards. This study was designed to evaluate the sticky mats effect in reduction of microorganism's entry by personnel shoes to burn intensive car...

Comparisons of webs spun in the field when both sticky and non-sticky silk supplies were complete, when both were recently depleted, and when only non-sticky supplies were depleted show that Leucauge mariana and Micrathena sexspinosa vary design features of their orbs such as numbers of radii and sticky spiral loops, web area and proportion covered with sticky spiral, sticky spiral symmetry, an...

Sticky demand – sticky nominal spending – acts as a substitute for sticky prices. In an inventorytheoretic model of the demand for money, monetary injections are offset by endogenous movements in velocity that keep nominal spending flat. When embedded in a sticky price model, this reduces the model’s reliance on implausibly large amounts of exogenous stickiness. For example: 6 months asset mark...

A matroid is sticky if any two of its extensions by disjoint sets can be glued together along the common restriction (that is, they have an amalgam). The sticky matroid conjecture asserts that a matroid is sticky if and only if it is modular. Poljak and Turzı́k proved that no rank-3 matroid having two disjoint lines is sticky. We show that, for r ≥ 3, no rank-r matroid having two disjoint hyperp...
