Software is vital for the advancement of biology and medicine. Impact evaluations scientific software have primarily emphasized traditional citation metrics associated papers, despite these inadequately capturing dynamic picture impact challenges with improper citation.
Background We examined neighborhood characteristics concerning breast cancer screening annual adherence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods analyzed 6673 female patients aged 40 or older at increased inherited risk in 2 large health care systems (NYU Langone Health [NYULH] and University of Utah [UHealth]). Multinomial models were used to identify predictors mammogram groups (non-adherent, pre-pandemic adherent, pandemic period adherent) comparison adherent females. Potential determinants...
Whenever there are changes in surface chemistry of the magnetic tape caused by various tribological or environmental parameters, such as humidity and temperature, they may significanty increase adhesive interaction between drive components. Exposure to high at elevated temperatures for extended periods can result hydrolytic degradation tape-binder system. The products have lower molecular weight be tacky nature. Changes binder monitored measuring weight, extractable binder-to-lubricant...
Abstract A review of friction theories relevant to the interaction between magnetic-recording-device components (hard, inelastic materials) and viscoelastic, polymeric materials used in manufacture flexible, magnetic tape is presented. Tabor's classical theory adhesion with appropriate deformation shear-strain rates, as well Hegmon's hysteresis friction, adequately describes frictional behavior. Other sources adhesional are stiction, meniscus, microcapillary evacuation. For...
