INCORPORATING EPISTEMIC UNCERTAINTIES IN SHIP OPERABILITY STUDY

Incorporating Epistemic Uncertainties in Ship Operability Study

Ship operability diagrams are commonly defined based on the seakeeping analysis, showing which course and speed can safely be taken at the sea state to satisfy pre-defined seakeeping limiting values.Although ship operability diagrams are inherently probabilistic, because of the random nature of the environmental loads, their outcome is deterministi

One-Step In Vitro Generation of ETV2-Null Pig Embryos

Each year, tens of thousands of people worldwide die of end-stage organ failure due to the limited availability of organs for use in transplantation.To meet this clinical demand, one of the last frontiers of regenerative medicine is the generation of humanized organs in pigs from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) via blastocyst complementation.For this

CONSTRUCTION OF NEW MULTI-FUNCTION TYPE ARTIFICIAL BOUNDARY PILLAR FOR TRANSITION FROM OPEN PIT TO UNDERGROUND MINING

In allusion to the defects of large material consumption and high construction cost of conventional artificial boundary pillar for the transition from open pit to underground mining, a new multi-function type of artificial boundary pillar scheme of reinforced concrete is proposed, which creates favourable conditions for underground mining below the

Entomological and ecological aspects of six sylvatic species of triatomines (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) from the collection of the National Biodiversity Institute of Costa Rica, Central America

A total of 797 specimens of wild adult triatomines, belonging to six species from the entomological collections of the Costa Rican National Biodiversity Institute, was studied from the standpoint of their relative abundance, as reflected by light traps, distribution in the country, seasonal variations and climatic and 100w products altitudinal pref
