If a new pathogen causes a large epidemic, then it might “burn out” before causing a second epidemic. The burnout probability can be estimated from large numbers of computationally intensive ...

Abstract: Due to the thermal imaging mechanism, infrared images are inevitably contaminated by thermal radiation bias fields. Correcting this low-frequency nonuniformity is challenging because the ...

Reliable earthquake recurrence probability assessment is crucial for seismic hazard mitigation but remains challenging due to sparse paleoseismic data on individual faults. We present an enhanced ...

The generation of micro- and nanobubbles on electrodes significantly impedes electrolysis efficiency by blocking electrolyte access to the electrodes. How to get rid of them and when do they detach?

Emerging evidence suggests that elevated circulating levels of HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) could be linked to an increased mortality risk. However, to the best of our knowledge, the ...
