Corrosion in the marine environment is click here a complex and expensive form of damage.It is commonly studied by the deployment of coupons that reflect the marine corrosion a structure will experience, thus allowing design and maintenance prevention strategies to be developed accordingly.This study stems from the lack of information in the litera
Protura are click here among the latecomers to molecular phylogenetics.The first sequences were published about a decade ago; since then relatively little additional data has been collected.Nonetheless, the available molecular phylogenetic analyses have provided valuable contributions towards the elucidation of the phylogenetic position of the Prot
Hypertensive urgency is a major risk factor for cardiovascular events and premature deaths.Lack of medication adherence is associated with poor health outcomes among patients with hypertensive urgency in resource-limited settings.To inform the development of tailored interventions to improve health outcomes in this population, this study aimed at u
A method to deduce the characteristics of rail corrugation was developed and presented in this paper.It has been found that noise and vibration in the train vehicle were primarily contributed by rail corrugation and wheel polygonalisation.As the characteristics of wheel sets of a particular train can be assumed to be unchanged during a trip, rail c
There is ongoing debate about whether the relationship between income and pro-social behaviour depends on economic inequality.Studies investigating this question differ in their conclusions but are consistent in measuring inequality at aggregated geographic levels (i.e.at the state, region, or country-level).I hypothesise that local, more immediate
