Introduction: To determine if athletes with coordination impairment (CI) can continue playing wheelchair rugby (WR), while an evidence-based classification system, including impairment tests for CI is not yet available. This is a defensible practise if they show similar activity limitations as athletes …

Abstract Driven by the European Green Deal, the road-freight sector is hybridizing its fleet. However, at present, trailing units do not possess any form of powertrain, a missed opportunity. By introducing electrically driven axles, these units may reduce fuel consumption and emissions substantially. …

In today’s digital era, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are facing more cyber threats as they adopt new technologies. From data breaches to ransomware and phishing attacks, these risks are becoming more frequent and advanced. Unlike large companies, SMEs often don’t have the budget or cybersecurity …

OBJECTIVES: Assessment of malnutrition-related muscle depletion with computed tomography (CT) using skeletal muscle index (SMI) and muscle radiation attenuation (MRA) at the third lumbar vertebra is well validated. However, SMI and MRA values at other vertebral locations and interchangeability as parameters …

The seismic assessment of the out-of-plane (OOP) behaviour of unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings is essential since the OOP is one of the primary collapse mechanisms in URM buildings. It is influenced by several parameters, including the poor connections between structural elements, a weakness highlighted …

''This paper aims to analyze the behavior of experimentally tested unreinforced masonry walls subjected to in-plane loading. Monotonic load analyses are conducted using FEM and AEM modeling approaches. The models presented here are based on the assumption of both unit and mortar joints modeled as solid …

Addressing the challenges of road construction in high-temperature regions, this research focuses on the technical and economic comparison between traditional asphalt pavement and recycled plastic asphalt pavement. The overarching research question is: “Technical and economical comparison of traditional …

This study evaluates the maximum theoretical exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromag- netic fields (EMFs) from a Fifth-generation (5G) New Radio (NR) base station (BS) while using four commonly used mobile applications: YouTube for video streaming, WhatsApp for voice calls, Instagram for posting pictures …

Stargazing Live! aims to capture the imagination of learners with a combination of live and interactive planetarium lessons, real astronomical data, and lessons built around interactive knowledge representations. The lessons were created using a co-creation model and tackle concepts in the pre-university …

Objectives Decision-making for patients with a locally advanced laryngeal carcinoma (T3 and T4) is challenging due to the treatment choice between organ preservation and laryngectomy, both with different and high impact on function and quality of life (QoL). The complexity of these treatment decisions …
