Background Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging is considered the imaging reference standard for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and scarring. The aim of this study is to evaluate a free-b (...)

To investigate the redox and volatile evolution of arc magmas linked to supergiant porphyry copper deposits (PCDs), we study zircon and their apatite inclusions from the Miocene-Pliocene intrusive roc (...)

This work presents a dynamic model of a reversible solid oxide cell (rSOC) plant operating under variable solar generation and electricity demand to enable optimal operation analysis. The model integr (...)

We examine how criminal activity responds to a large environmental shock in the urban space. We focus on blackouts, which can abruptly change the provision of light and potentially the distribution of (...)

The increase in congestion in surface traffic, airborne pollution, and other environmental issues has motivated transit authorities to promote public transit worldwide. In large cities and metropolita (...)

Radial packed-bed thermal energy storage systems are increasingly researched due to their compactness and suitability for operation over a wide temperature range. However, the hydraulic behavior of ra (...)

This paper presents an experimental investigation of three strengthening strategies aimed at improving the inplane seismic response of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls with arch-type openings. To this (...)

A thorough understanding of esophageal biomechanics is essential for predicting tissue failure and preventing iatrogenic tearing during surgical procedures, such as esophageal atresia repair. This kno (...)

Lately, hospital functionality has been significantly reduced or halted due to the severity of the earthquake-induced nonstructural damage in the hospital's critical rooms. Furthermore, there is a lac (...)

This study characterized urban infrastructure (UI) supporting physical activity (PA) in Greater Santiago (GS), Chile, and examined its spatial distribution. A conceptual model comprising four key dime (...)

This paper studies the emulation-based stabilization of nonlinear networked control systems with two time scales. We address the challenge of using a single communication channel for transmitting both (...)

Problem definition: Multistage stochastic programs involving mixed-integer state variables and continuous local variables (MSILPs) present a challenging class of optimization problems with limited tec (...)

Although Quintero-Puchuncav & iacute; Bay, Chile, is a coastal area historically known to be subject to multiple industrial pressures, few studies have focused on the associated risks to marine ecosys (...)

This work explores for the first time the stability and selectivity of Trametes versicolor laccase immobilized on the glyoxyl support Immobead 150 P. Different buffers (pH 6-10) were tested for enzyme (...)

The present work reports Mg-promoted Re/Fe catalysts supported on activated carbon for CO2-FT, evaluating the effect of the Re/Fe ratio. The catalysts were obtained by impregnation and characterized b (...)

Herein, we report a series of poly(ionic liquid)-based (PIL) hydrogels that were synthesized via chemical cross-linking of poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VPy) with dibrominated polyethylene glycol (Br-PEG-B (...)

PurposeThis paper aims to propose a framework for the digitalization and improvement of design operations in offsite construction (OSC). It addresses the limitations of traditional methods by introduc (...)

Integrated water resources management uses decision-making and planning techniques in developing long-term strategies to ensure the sustainability of water resources and the resulting water security o (...)

Community diagnosis has generally focused on the problems of communities. This approach often highlights the needs of communities, failing to recognise their resources and thus reducing their strength (...)

Sediment transport in rivers and channels can be understood as a diffusive phenomenon, where sediment particles separate as they move downstream. This diffusive behavior can be Fickian or anomalous (s (...)
