Background About 5% of civilian trauma requires massive transfusion. Protocolized resuscitation
with blood products to achieve high plasma:RBC ratio has been advocated to improve …

Impaired mobility in multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with high-energy costs and effort
when walking, gait abnormalities, poor endurance and fatigue. This repeated measures trial …

This pilot study investigated whether 4 weeks of aerobic treadmill training in individuals with
multiple sclerosis (MS) improved mobility and reduced fatigue. Individuals with MS were …

Many estimates exist in the literature of multi-product cost functions estimated across a
sample of institutions of higher education. Typically these have not employed the appropriate …

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of welding processes used to deposit wear
resistant overlays. It is based on both literature review and research work performed at the …

Friction stir welding is an efficient manufacturing method for joining dissimilar alloys, which
can dramatically reduce grain sizes and offer high mechanical joint efficiency. Lap FSW joints …

Friction stir processing (FSP) was applied to modify the microstructure of sintered Al–SiC
composites with particle concentrations ranging from 4 to 16 vol%. Two SiC particle sizes (…
