HIGH-PRECISION AND HIGH-ACCURACY STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETRIC IMAGE ANALYSIS FOR SMALL TO LARGE STRAIN DEFORMATION MEASUREMENT IN TRIAXIAL APPARATUS

High-precision and high-accuracy stereophotogrammetric image analysis for small to large strain deformation measurement in triaxial apparatus

A deformation measurement system for laboratory soil testing based on stereophotogrammetric image analysis was developed with a purpose of characterising soil behaviour continuously from small to large strains.The system is applicable to triaxial tests with pressure chamber and confining fluid by correcting the refraction-induced Casual and Denim J

Antimicrobial Chemokines

Chemokines are best known for their classic leukocyte chemotactic activity, which is critical for directing the immune Hoodies/Fleece response to sites of infection and injury.However, recent studies have suggested that at least some chemokines may also interfere with infectious agents directly.Antimicrobial chemokines tend to contain amphipathic a

DETERMINANTS OF PREVENTIVE BEHAVIOR REGARDING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES AND RISK FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH ESSENTIAL HYPERTENSION AND CHRONIC ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE

Aim.To analyze potential determinants of preventive behavior (PB) in patients with essential hypertension (HT) and chronic ischemic heart disease (CIHD), and to establish their significance and hierarchy.Material and methods.Patients with HT (n=285) and CIHD (n=223) were studied.Questioning of all patients was performed to assess the characteristic
