We developed a novel knee joint model in FEBio to simulate walking. Knee cartilage was modeled using a fibril-reinforced biphasic (FRB) formulation with depth-wise collagen architecture and split-lines to account for cartilage structure. Under axial compression, the knee model with FRB cartilage yielded contact pressures, similar to reported experimental data. Furthermore, gait analysis with FRB c
In Streamflow prediction the most important triggering/controlling variables are related to climate, physiography, and landscape patterns. This study investigated the effect of different landscape metrics to relate spatial patterns to surface runoff processes and predict monthly streamflow using climatic and physiographic variables for the 42 sub-basins of the Urmia Lake Basin in Iran. We develope
In this chapter, three strategic domains of Additive Manufacturing application are presented: tool making, medicine and transportation, with main benefits and results obtained by application of AM. Chapter presents some of on-going or already finished project from mentioned AM application fields.
Mission-critical applications such as industrial control processes are evolving towards a new development paradigm by offloading their heavy computations to the edge of the emerging Fifth Generation Wireless Specifications (5G) network. In this manner, the applications can gain the economical and efficiency benefits of cloud computing, as well as reliable communication from the 5G network. However
Objective: To investigate the effects of fever therapy compared with no fever therapy in a wide population of febrile adults. Design: Systematic review with meta-analyses and trial sequential analyses of randomised clinical trials. Data sources: CENTRAL, BIOSIS, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Embase, LILACS, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection, searched from their inception to 2 July 2021. Eligibility cr
Background: Hesitancy towards COVID-19 vaccination and its rejection remains a major public health concern worldwide, especially in the Middle East and North African countries. The current study aimed to assess the intentions to get COVID-19 vaccines and its determinants among the general public in Algeria. Methods: A self-administered online survey was distributed during August-September 2021 usi
We know little about how genetic risk factors for two disorders jointly act and interact in predisposing to illness. Therefore, in the Swedish population, born 1970–1990 (n = 2,116,082) and followed through 2015, we examine, using additive Cox models, the impact of the family genetic risk scores (FGRS) for alcohol use disorder (AUD) and major depression (MD), their interaction with each other and
In Swedish child welfare, there are no mandatory guidelines on what interventions to use. Local authorities are able to set their own criteria for implementing or designing interventions. We carried out a survey to identify interventions in use in Children's Social Services and Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Care in Sweden. A total of 102 interventions were stated to have been in use, with betwe
The presence of solid particles in a Newtonian liquid flow will affect the properties of the flow. For small particles these effects are fairly well understood. However, the behaviour of liquids laden with large particles are less well understood and even more so if the carrier liquid is a non-Newtonian fluid. In the present study we consider large particles of spherical shape. By large is here me
● Syftet med denna rapport är att ge forskares analys av riksdagspartiernas klimatpolitik inför valet 2022.● Alla som har bidragit till denna rapport är klimat- eller omställningsforskare och medlemmar i Researchers’ Desk1.● Researchers’ Desk är en oberoende, ideell organisation, med över 80 ledande forskare i Sverige, som arbetar med olika aspekter av klimatförändringarna.● Alla de åtta politiska
How sticky were wages during the Great Depression? Although classic accounts emphasise the importance of nominal rigidity in amplifying deflationary shocks, the evidence is limited. In this paper, I calculate the degree of nominal wage rigidity in the United Kingdom between the wars using new granular data covering millions of wages. I find that nominal wages changed infrequently but that wage cut
Objectives. The aim of this study was to analyse the risk of valvular heart diseases among foreign-born individuals in Sweden. Design. This was a nationwide study of individuals aged 18 years of age and older (N = 6,118,649; 2,970,055 men and 3,148,594 women). Valvular heart diseases were defined as at least one registered diagnosis in the National Patient Register between 1 January 1998 and 31 De
Climate change has directly and indirectly impacted natural and human systems across the globe in recent decades.
Simulation of AM products can capture a number of aspects. Apart from the traditional types of simulation of the end product, such as mechanical, thermal and fluid analyses, it is possible to simulate the AM build process. While simulating products intended for AM can sometimes be performed in exactly the same way as with products intended for traditional manufacturing, there are several aspects t
