Investigations of fluid instability and density-driven convection in soils and rocks are motivated by both natural phenomena giving rise to ecological problems, and human activities. Knowledge about the admixture transportation by underground fluid f...
This work is focused on the state of charge (SOC) estimation of a lithium-ion battery based on a nonlinear observer. First, the second-order resistor-capacitor (RC) model of the battery pack is introduced by utilizing the physical behavior of the bat...
Droplet manipulation by light-induced isomerization was numerically demonstrated and investigated regarding the driving mechanism. Such a non-invasive manipulation of a droplet in a microchannel can be realized, for example, by the use of watery solu...
Prior research suggests that, to maintain sustainable health, inefficient vaccine markets need to be intervened by government subsidy. However, the effectiveness of these intervention mechanisms is often reduced by the absence of reference dependence...
The following paper focuses on the topic of mandibular unilateral condyle hyperplasia (UCH). This form of mandibular asymmetry (MA) is one of the less common but still known pathologies that requires detailed surgical and orthodontic planning and tre...
We model, with the use of the force field method, the dependence of mechanical conformations of graphene sheets, located on flat substrates, on the density of unilateral (one-side) attachment of hydrogen, fluorine or chlorine atoms to them. It is sho...
I uncover previously underappreciated systematic sources of false and irreproducible results in natural, biomedical and social sciences that are rooted in statistical methodology. They include the inevitably occurring deviations from basic assumption...
As the population ages, the number of people with dementia increases. An emerging body of research is focusing on living with dementia and understanding the experience of caring and the care burden. There is much less research on the meaning of demen...
Product reliability is a crucial component of the industrial production process. Several statistical process control techniques have been successfully employed in industrial manufacturing processes to observe changes in reliability-related quality va...
The aim of this study was to evaluate center of pressure (CoP) changes in unilateral sports and examine how these changes affect the athlete’s feet, ankles, knees or posture. The study sample consisted of 40 professional male players (age: 19.4...
In this study, a novel approach for characterizing the optical properties of inhomogeneous thin films is presented, with a particular focus on samples exhibiting absorption in some part of the measured spectral range. Conventional methods of measurin...
In recent years, the rapid spread of electric vehicles (EVs) has intensified the competition to develop power units for EVs. In particular, improving the driving range of EVs has become a major topic, and in order to achieve this, many studies have b...

On 24 February, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave the order to invade neighbouring Ukraine; a typical trend during the war is considering events in a one-sided way, emphasising the exclusive contribution of one opponent over the other for the out...
The growing recognition of the public health impact of cognitive impairment and dementia has sparked a global initiative to identify risk factors and develop strategies to prevent or slow the progression of these cognitive disorders. Uric acid, the e...
Indoor localization using fine time measurement (FTM) round-trip time (RTT) with respect to cooperating Wi-Fi access points (APs) has been shown to work well and provide 1–2 m accuracy in both 2D and 3D applications. This approach depends on AP...
Gait symmetry analysis plays an important role in the diagnosis and rehabilitation of pathological gait. Recently, wearable devices have also been developed for simple gait analysis solutions. However, measurement in clinical settings can differ from...
The discovery of spatio-temporal co-occurrence patterns (STCPs) among multiple types of crimes whose events frequently co-occur in neighboring space and time is crucial to the joint prevention of crimes. However, the crime event occurrence time is of...
We present laser-doped interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cells with efficiencies of 23% on an area of 244 cm2 metallized by a screen-printed silver paste. Local laser doping is especially suited for processing IBC cells where a multitude of pn-...
