The Relationship Between Shoe Size and the Amount of Sand that Enters the Shoe

Ari Lee

This study examines how shoe sizes affect the amount of sand that enters the shoe. By building a simple mathematical model that compares ankle size and ankle-collar size, we show that sand inflow can be approximated as proportional to the difference between …

Special Dirichlet Processes: Structure, Uniqueness and Stability

Philip Kennerberg

We introduce the class of \emph{Special--Dirichlet processes}, consisting of càdlàg adapted processes admitting a decomposition \[ X=M+Γ, \] where \(M\) is a local martingale and \(Γ\) is an adapted càdlàg process with vanishing continuous quadratic variation whose jumps are predictable and \(\mathcal …

Stability of Compensated Jump Integrals under Quadratic Variation Convergence

Philip Kennerberg

We study the stability of compensated jump integrals under convergence of quadratic variation alone. Let \(X\) and \(\{X^n\}_{n\ge1}\) be càdlàg processes with jump measures \(μ,μ_n\) and predictable compensators \(ν,ν_n\). Under the assumption \[ [X^n-X]_t \to 0 \qquad\text{in probability}, \] we establish ucp …

The insulin and ecdysone pathways as regulators of diapause termination: transcriptional and protein insights from Pieris napi

Philip Süess, Sabine Ziesemer, Rachel Steward, Kevin T. Roberts et autres

Insect diapause is a pre-programmed alternative developmental pathway induced to survive adverse environmental conditions and is characterized by an absence of development, metabolic suppression and increased stress resistance. While the hormonal regulation of diapause induction has been studied extensively, clear molecular hypotheses …

Perceived health, psychological distress and quality of life in 8415 adults with congenital heart disease from 32 countries

Philip Moons, Adrienne H. Kovacs, Eva Goossens, Koen Luyckx et autres

BACKGROUND: The global prevalence of congenital heart disease (CHD) is increasing. Research on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) predominantly originates from high-income countries, resulting in an incomplete understanding of the true global burden of CHD from the patient perspective. Therefore, we described perceived health, …

Nyquist ghost elimination for diffusion MRI by dual-polarity readout at low b-values

Oscar Jalnefjord, Nicolas Geades, Guillaume Gilbert, Isabella M. Björkman‐Burtscher et autres

Abstract Dual-polarity readout is a simple and robust way to mitigate Nyquist ghosting in diffusion-weighted echo-planar imaging but imposes doubled scan time. We here propose how dual-polarity readout can be implemented with little or no increase in scan time by exploiting an …

Quantitative assessment of carotid ultrasound diameter measurements in the operating room: a comparable analysis of long-axis versus rotated and tilted orientation

Esmée C. de Boer, Catarina Dinis Fernandes, Danihel van Neerven, Christoph Pennings et autres

Abstract Objective . Carotid ultrasound (US) has been studied as a non-invasive alternative for hemodynamic monitoring. A long-axis (LA) view is traditionally employed but is difficult to maintain and operator experience may impact the diameter estimates, making it unsuitable for monitoring. Preliminary …

Fatigue strength assessment of cover plate joints subjected to axial and bending loading

Joel Håkansson, Jinchao Zhu, Imad Barsoum, Mansoor Khurshid

Abstract This study investigates stress‐based fatigue assessment methods to determine their applicability to welded cover plate joints subject to axial and bending loading. The nominal stress (NS), hot spot stress (HSS), 1 mm stress (OM), effective notch stress (ENS), theory of critical …

Evaluation of local stress‐based fatigue strength assessment methods for cover plates and T‐joints subjected to axial and bending loading

Jinchao Zhu, Imad Barsoum, Zuheir Barsoum, Mansoor Khurshid

Abstract This study aims to find suitable fatigue assessment methods for welded structures (cover plates and T‐joints) subjected to axial and bending loading. The Hot Spot Stress (HSS), 1‐mm stress (OM), Theory of Critical Distances (TCD), Stress Averaging (SA), and Effective Notch …

Phosphorus MRS of healthy human spleen

Ján Weis, Maysam Jafar, Per Liss

Phosphorus (31P‐) MRS in vivo enables detection and quantification of important phosphorus‐containing metabolites in biological tissues. 31P‐MRS of the normal spleen is challenging due to the relatively small volume and the larger distance between the spleen and surface coil. However, reference spectra …
