Among the exhibits at the 2016 Leonardo da Vinci exhibition at the Science Museum, London, was one that purported to illustrate Leonardo’s experiments on friction. The models involved were the work of Giovanni Canestrini...
In this paper we study a fully parabolic version of the Keller-Segel system in the presence of a volume filling effect which prevents blow-up of the L norm. This effect is sometimes referred to as prevention of overcrowding. As...
Dual mode imaging in the mid infrared band, a joint use of thermography and quasi-thermal reflectography, was recently proposed as a full field diagnostic tool in cultural heritage. Here we discuss for the first time, to the...
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a functionally relevant mechanism for Ca2+ influx present in electrically excitable and non-excitable cells. Regulation of Ca2+ entry through store-operated channels is essential to maintain...
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and serves many functions, from mechanical stability and elasticity in tendons and bone, to optical properties, such as transparency and a fine tuned refractive index in...

Abstract: Bayesian optimisation is a sample-efficient search methodology that holds great promise for accelerating drug and materials discovery programs. A frequently-overlooked modelling consideration in Bayesian optimisation...
Currently, malware attacks pose a high risk to compromise the security of Android-IoT apps. These threats have the potential to steal critical information, causing economic, social, and financial harm. Because of their constant...
By the nature of their occupation, first responders witness numerous traumatic events. Most of the time, their training and desire to help others allows them to respond professionally and appropriately. However, there are...
This study deals with the problem of outsourcing management, presenting a structure to support decision-making on effective information-technology outsourcing and highlighting the advantages and disadvantages that must be...
Abstract: Recent advances in Quantum Machine Learning (QML) have provided benefits to several computational processes, drastically reducing the time complexity. Another approach of combining quantum information theory with...
BACKGROUND: Colonoscopy remains the gold-standard screening for colorectal cancer. However, significant miss rates for polyps have been reported, particularly when there are multiple small adenomas. This presents an opportunity...
Background: Internship is a crucial stage of medical school regarding student stress which can affect the patient care negatively. Retrieving knowledge about presence of depression is therefore important in itself and if found...
The key concepts of digital forensic investigation in cloud computing are examination and investigation. Cybercriminals target cloud-based web applications due to presence of vulnerabilities. Forensic investigation is a complex...

Scheduled maintenance and inspection of bearing elements in industrial machinery contributes significantly to the operating costs. Savings can be made through automatic vibration-based damage detection and prognostics, to permit...
The internet makes it easier for people to connect to each other and has become a platform to express ideas and share information with the world. The growth of the internet has indirectly led to the development of social...
Diaphragmatic hernia can be of two types-absence or deficiency of the diaphragm, or eventration resulting in elevation of a portion of the diaphragm as a result of incomplete muscularization. Complete eventration almost...
Introduction Since its emergence in 1981, the HIV/AIDS pandemic, which poses a serious challenge to mankind, without doubt, has become one of the most serious infectious diseases. Many adolescents around the world are sexually...
