Acquired cranial defects are a prevalent condition in neurosurgery and call for cranioplasty, where the Boyfriend Jean missing or defective cranium is replaced by an implant.Nevertheless, the biomaterials in current clinical applications are hardly exempt from long-term safety and comfort concerns.An appealing solution is regenerative cranioplasty,
The antimicrobial and antioxidative activities of diethyl ether, 80% methanol and 50% acetone extracts of the leaves of three Amphoricarpos taxa (Asteraceae; A.neumayerianus, A.autariatus ssp.autariatus and perfume oil A.autariatus ssp.bertisceus) from the Balkan Peninsula were investigated.The antimicrobial activity was determined by the broth mic
This paper presents the state of the art in Structural Reliability Analysis (SRA) methods with a view of identifying key applications of each method and its proposed variations, qualifying characteristics, advantages, and limitations.Due to the increasing complexity and scale of modern offshore jacket structures, it becomes increasingly necessary t
The emulation of synchronous machines is becoming an attractive solution to provide virtual inertia and voltage support to weak grids and microgrids, representing an alternative to conventional current-injection control strategies.However, synchronverters operate as voltage sources and this makes it difficult to limit the current when Upper Spray A
