A Method to Determine an Equity Score for Transportation Systems in the Cities

Transportation equity is vital for the fulfillment of citizens’ activities. To make better decisions for transportation planning, it is appropriate to have a method to evaluate each mode and assign an equity score to it. This paper aims to propose a method to assess the level of equity using different transportation modes in each zone of a city. Here, the equity level takes into account on one sid

Effect of Various Dynamic Shear Rheometer Testing Methods on the Measured Rheological Properties of Bitumen

A 23 factorial design experiment was conducted to study the influence of pre-heating temperature (HT) for manufacturing sample, bonding temperature (BT) onto rheometer, and trimming state (Trim) of the sample on complex shear modulus (G*) and phase angle (δ) using a dynamic shear rheometer on unmodified bitumen of types 50/70, 70/100, and two 160/220 from various sources. In addition, the black di

Time-dependent exchange-correlation hole and potential of the electron gas

The exchange-correlation hole and potential of the homogeneous electron gas have been investigated within the random-phase approximation, employing the plasmon-pole approximation for the linear density response function. The angular dependence as well as the time dependence of the exchange-correlation hole are illustrated for a Wigner-Seitz radius rs=4 (atomic unit). It is found that there is a su

Slow conformational changes in the rigid and highly stable chymotrypsin inhibitor 2

Slow conformational changes are often directly linked to protein function. It is however less clear how such processes may perturb the overall folding stability of a protein. We previously found that the stabilizing double mutant L49I/I57V in the small protein chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 from barley led to distributed increased nanosecond and faster dynamics. Here we asked what effects the L49I and I

Pulse overlap artifacts and double quantum coherence spectroscopy

The double quantum coherence (DQC) signal in nonlinear spectroscopy gives information about the many-body correlation effects not easily available by other methods. The signal is short-lived, consequently, a significant part of it is generated during the pulse overlap. Since the signal is at two times the laser frequency, one may intuitively expect that the pulse overlap-related artifacts are filt

A Model of Froth Flotation with Drainage : Simulations and Comparison with Experiments

The operation of a froth flotation column can be described by a nonlinear convection–diffusion partial differential equation that incorporates the solids–flux and drift–flux theories as well as a model of foam drainage. The resulting model predicts the bubble and (gangue) particle volume fractions as functions of height and time. The steady-state (time-independent) version of the model defines so-

Urosymphyseal fistula after pelvic radiotherapy in a tertial referral centre - a rare entity with significant comorbidity requiring multidisciplinary management

OBJECTIVE: To report population-based clinical presentation and outcomes in patients with urosymphyseal fistula (USF) after pelvic radiotherapy (RT). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed in 33 consecutive patients diagnosed with suspicion of USF in a tertial referral center from 2014-2022 to ascertain information about diagnostic delay, clinical presentation, precipitat

Cette étude est ancrée dans une approche transdisciplinaire de l’apprentissage des langues secondes et étrangères (Douglas Fir Group 2016), composée de trois niveaux interdépendants : un niveau macro, caractérisé par des structures idéologiques et politiques à l’échelle de la société, un niveau méso où se situent les établissements scolaires régis par des contraintes sociales, économiques et cultu

Associations Between CSF Markers of Inflammation, White Matter Lesions, and Cognitive Decline in Individuals Without Dementia

Background and Objectives Small vessel disease (SVD) and neuroinflammation both occur in Alzheimer disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. It is unclear whether these processes are related or independent mechanisms in AD, especially in the early stages of disease. We therefore investigated the association between white matter lesions (WML; the most common manifestation of SVD) and CSF b

Cardiovascular disease-linked plasma proteins are mainly associated with lung volume

Background Epidemiological studies have shown that impaired lung function is common and associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Increased levels of several inflammatory and cardiovascular disease-related plasma proteins have been associated with impaired lung function. The aim was to study the association between plasma proteomics and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), force

Theory of nuclear motion in RABBITT spectra

Reconstruction of attosecond beating by interference of two-photon transitions (RABBITT) is a powerful photoelectron spectroscopy, offering direct access to internal dynamics of the target. It is being increasingly applied to molecular systems, but a general, computationally tractable theory of RABBITT spectra in molecules has so far been lacking. We show that under quite general assumptions, RABB
