Healthcare systems are complex systems that need effective and efficient operations, optimizations, management, and control to offer reliable, high-quality, and cost-effective healthcare services.There are different approaches to improve the management of healthcare systems including utilizing the healthcare systems engineering principles.Healthcar

Stem rust is one of the most potentially harmful wheat diseases, but has been effectively controlled in China since 1970s.However, the interest in breeding wheat with durable resistance to stem rust has been renewed with the emergence of Ug99 (TTKSK) virulent to the widely used resistance gene Sr31, and by which the wheat stem rust was controlled f

This paper presents a sensor system for detecting defects in ship hull surfaces.The sensor was developed to enable a robotic system to perform grit blasting Queen Poster Headboard operations on ship hulls.To achieve this, the proposed sensor system captures images with the help of a camera and processes them in real time using a new defect detectio

Semitransparent perovskite solar Mustard Made Baskets cells (PSCs) that possess a high-power conversion efficiency (PCE) and high average visible light transmittance (AVT) can be employed in applications such as photovoltaic windows.In this study, a bifacial modification comprising a buried layer of [4-(3,6-Dimethyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl) butyl] phospho

Recent successful cardiac transplantation from pig to non-human primates and the first pig-to-human transplantation has put the focus on the properties of the pig heart.In contrast to the coronary arteries, the coronary veins are less well characterized and the aim was to examine the mechanical and pharmacological properties of coronary veins in co
