Indoor localization is crucial to enable context-aware applications, but existing solutions mostly require a user carry device, so as actively sense location-discriminating signals. However, many applications do not prefer involvement due to, e.g., the cumbersome of carrying device. Therefore, that track locations passively can be desirable, yet lack active has made passive indoor very challenging even for single person. To this end, we propose Passive Acoustic loCalization multiple walking...
Abstract Background The relationships between air pollutants and mental behavioral disorders (MBDs) remain unclear. We aimed to identify the primary affecting health evaluate short-term effects on emergency ambulance dispatches (EADs) due MBDs. Methods Time-stratified case-crossover study conditional logistic regression model were adopted explore impact of EADs MBDs from 2013 2020 in Shenzhen, China. In order clarify influence gender age association, subgroup analysis was carried out. also...
Oil spill remediation plays a vital role in mitigating the environmental impacts caused by oil spills. The chemical method is one of widely recognized approaches surfactants. However, most commonly used surfactants are toxic and non-biodegradable. Herein, two biocompatible biodegradable were synthesized from orange peel using ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIMCl) organic solvent dimethylacetamide (CH3CN(CH3)2) as reaction media. acronyms SOPIL SOPOS refer to prepared...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly lethal cancer with increasing worldwide incidence, and there are few therapeutics options available for patients HCC. Thus, novel therapeutic targets this disease desperately needed. Chronic infection hepatitis B virus (HBV) the major risk factor development of HCC, while X protein (HBx) essential HBV-associated Based on our previous studies showing that HBx promoted hepatocarcinogenesis human non-tumor hepatic cell line L02 activated Notch1...
The irregular packing problem involves arranging all the pieces on a plate with objective of maximizing use material. In this article, layout is formed by ordered sequence which obtained hybrid search algorithm and where order decoded proposed placement principle. First, novel no-fit-polygon (NFP) generator introduced. Then, principle presented new NFP generator. Finally, hybridized beam (BS) tabu (TS) to over sequence. numerical experiments many benchmark problems show that an applicative...
This article proposes a novel discrete grey wolf optimization for the packing problem, called two-dimensional strip (2DSP) problem without guillotine constraint. The 2DSP involves cutting pieces from stock sheet with objective of minimizing waste. To solve by algorithm, many strategies are originally proposed. searching and attacking operators in algorithm redesigned to guarantee coding effectiveness. A approach measure distance between wolves is presented. In addition, an improved best-fit...
Ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) was used to dissolve cellulose and regenerated from the solution by two different methods. Original (OC) have crystallinity. The morphological characteristic of crystallinity analyzed scanning electron microscopy (SEM). pyrolysis experiment performed on a horizontal tube furnace reactor wire mesh reactor. pyrolytic char prepared at 300°C with 50% yield. Surface structure original water washed above reactors XPS. results reveal...
Introduction Given the rapid geographic spread of dengue and growing frequency intensity heavy rainfall events, it is imperative to understand relationship between these phenomena in order propose effective interventions. However, studies exploring association infection risk have reached conflicting conclusions, potentially due neglect prior water availability mosquito breeding sites as an effect modifier. Methods In this study, we addressed research gap by considering impact for first time....
During operation, the time-variant deviations, such as deformation, thermal expansion, friction and wear always occur affect mechanical performance service life of assembly. In this paper, a methodology for prediction assembly with deviations is proposed. Firstly, based on modified Unified Jacobian-Torsor model Monte Carlo simulation, according to distribution geometric dimension tolerances are randomly generated limit variations surface part. Secondly, deformations caused by load expansion...
Abstract Empirical wavelet transform (EWT) has a complete theoretical support and can adaptively separate modes with different characteristics from the frequency domain. Signal decomposition mode extraction based on empirical obtain more accurate components. This paper proposes modulated driven by cepstrum under basic framework of traditional EWT method. The most innovative point this is to use update waveform trend spectrum realize function separating modes. filtering process constructs...
Climate change has raised scientific interest in examining the associations of weather conditions with adverse health effects, while most studies determined human thermal stress using ambient air temperature rather than thermophysiological index.
Background and Purpose: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a type of cancer cell owning the characteristic self-renew differentiation.We hypothesize that stemness properties in CD44v6+ hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is promoted via Met/cjun/Nanog signaling pathway, thus, serves as valuable target for HCC therapy. Experimental Approach: We use lentiviral shMet selective Met inhibitor PHA665752 to explore function axi cells. The orthotopic liver xenograft tumor model was used detect self-renewal...
