Snow avalanches break, uproot and overturn trees causing damage to forests.The extent of forest damage provides useful information on avalanche frequency and intensity.However, impact forces depend on avalanche flow regime.In this paper, we define avalanche loading cases representing four different avalanche flow regimes: powder, intermittent, dry
The response to the COVID-19 pandemic from the research and science community has been vigorous, with information being released faster than that of any other event in human history.Articles related to the virus were being rapidly published by January 2020.A small fraction of these publications comprised reports of prospective clinical trials (0.25
Damage and disease of nerves activates the complement system.We demonstrated that activation of the terminal pathway of the complement system leads to the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) and delays regeneration in the peripheral nervous system.Animals deficient in the complement component C6 showed improved recovery after neuronal tr
Measuring the bore of artillery barrels is often a challenging task due to limited automation, inaccuracies in measurement, and the need to process large volumes of test data.To tackle these issues, research has focused on utilizing high-precision laser technology for scanning and detecting barrel bores.This process involves creating a three-dimens
