Used Knee Guards In addition to passenger vehicles, battery-electric trucks and buses could offer substantial flexibility to the energy system.Using a Bass diffusion model, we extrapolated the unidirectional charging needs and availability of trucks in five of eleven typical applications, as well as city buses, for Germany until 2040.Combined, thes

Abstract Background Pycnogonida (sea spiders) is the sister group of all other extant chelicerates (spiders, scorpions and relatives) and thus represents an important taxon to inform early chelicerate evolution.Notably, phylogenetic analyses have challenged traditional hypotheses on the relationships of the major pycnogonid lineages (families), ind
To improve the running speed of image resizing,a fast content-aware image resizing algorithm was proposed based on the threshold learning and random-carving with probability.Firstly the important map was calculated by combining the Stacking Kit graph-based visual saliency map and gradient map.Then the image threshold value was obtained by radial ba
In this study, we developed a mouse model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using streptozotocin and nicotinamide and identified factors that increase susceptibility of T2DM mice to infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb).All Mtb-infected T2DM mice and 40% of uninfected T2DM mice died within 10 months, whereas all control mice survived.In Mt
