Abstract Motivated by nonlinear programming we study a process involving continuous adjustments of both primal and dual variables. Nonsmoothness in problem data or simple restrictions on variables make the velocity of the process possibly nonunique. The process obtained...

<jats:p>Experimental methods are still indispensable for fluid mechanics research, despite advancements in the modelling and computer simulation field. Experimental data are vital for validating simulations of complex flow systems. However, measuring the flow in industr...

The primary objectives of this analysis were to examine the effects of early posttransplantation (10 wk) serum levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG), mannose-binding lectin (MBL), and MBL-associated serine proteases (MASP; MASP-2 and MASP-3) on long-term (8-yr) patient surviv...

The spinodal represents the limit of thermodynamic stability of a homogeneous fluid. In this work, we present a robust methodology to obtain the spinodal of multicomponent fluids described even with the most sophisticated equations of state (EoS) available. We elaborate...

<jats:p>Mating systems largely affect individual reproductive strategies which further drives evolution. Monogamy, where males and females form exclusive pairs for more than one breeding season, is particularly intriguing in this context, as there are real and potential...

In Ethiopia, 60 per cent of the population is at risk of malaria. The transmission of the disease is unstable, and hence, the possibility of epidemics demanded continuous vigilance and preparedness of the health system. Meanwhile, the complexity of the transmission of t...

Betydningen av pH-verdien for giftigheten av avløpsvann fra International Paper AS i Greåker er undersøkt ved hjelp av toksisitetstester med vannlopper (Daphnia pulex). Avløpsvannet inneholder fettsyrer og har en pH-verdi på ca 3. Resultatene tyder på at det er liten fo...

<jats:sec><jats:title>Background and Aims:</jats:title><jats:p> There is an urgent need for tools allowing therapists to identify patients at risk of dropout. The OQ-Analyst, an increasingly popular computer-based system, is used to track patient progress and predict dr...
