In this study, new-type hybrid faring is suggested to improve the aerodynamic performance of the long-span cable-stayed bridge.The proposed fairing is developed by applying the concept of the multibox section to the normal faring.The proposed faring has void regions inside the faring so that DNA wind passes through the gaps in the faring.As a resul
Macro- and Microhabitat Predictors of Nest Success and Hatchling Survival in Eastern Box Turtles (Terrapene carolina carolina) and Spotted Turtles (Clemmys guttata) in Oak Savanna Landscapes
Differing selection pressures on stationary nest contents compared to mobile offspring mean that the nest-site characteristics WOMENS SNOW resulting in the highest nest success may not be the same characteristics that result in the highest survival of juveniles from those nests.In such cases, maternal nest-site choice may optimize productivity over
A case of asymptomatic ileal duplication cyst associated with acute appendicitis
Duplications of MACASURE the alimentary tract are infrequent anomalies.They are most frequently located in the terminal ileum, and majority of them became symptomatic before the age of 2.Presenting symptoms may include abdominal mass, intestinal obstruction, intussusception, rectal bleeding, and abdominal pain.Preoperative diagnosis is usually diff
Understanding relations between intolerance of uncertainty and body checking and body avoiding in anorexia nervosa
Abstract Background A key feature of anorexia nervosa is body image disturbances and is often expressed by dysfunctional body-related behaviours such as body checking and body avoiding.These behaviours are thought to contribute to both the maintenance and relapse of AN, yet empirical evidence is scarce.One variable that may contribute to the need f
