APPLICATION OF FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION (FEC) CODES IN WIRELESS ACOUSTIC EMISSION STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING ON RAILWAY INFRASTRUCTURES

Application of Forward Error Correction (FEC) Codes in Wireless Acoustic Emission Structural Health Monitoring on Railway Infrastructures

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has been extensively used in the railway industry, with applications ranging CBD Capsule from railway infrastructures to carbody shells.An SHM method that dominates monitoring procedures is Acoustic Emissions (AE).The utilisation of the AE method could use a significantly large amount of data, collected and forwar

Heavy metal accumulation and changes in phenylpropanoid metabolism induced by mining activities in leaves of Pinus nigra and Pinus eldarica

Plants can absorb pollutants produced through industrial activities.In this research, biochemistry and lignin biosynthesis processes are studied in Pinus nigra and P.eldarica trees, that were exposed to pollutants from Sarcheshmeh copper complex and from the Kentuiyeh ascontrol area (both Iran).Needles were collected in areas adjacent to mining fac

Repositioning of antiarrhythmics for prostate cancer treatment: a novel strategy to reprogram cancer-associated fibroblasts towards a tumor-suppressive phenotype

Abstract Background Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a significant role in fueling prostate cancer (PCa) progression by interacting with tumor cells.A previous gene expression analysis revealed that CAFs up-regulate genes coding for voltage-gated cation channels, as compared to normal prostate fibroblasts (NPFs).In this study, we explored
