Processing and Characterization of High Density Polyethylene/Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Blends with Different VA Contents by Othman Y. Alothman

“…Different series of high density Polyethylene/Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (HDPE/EVA) blends were prepared via melt blending in a corotating intermeshing twin screw extruder. The effects of VA percentage and EVA loading ratio on the thermal, rheological viscoelastic, mechanical, and fracture toughness of the blends were analyzed. …”

Enoxaparin Effect on Pregnancy Outcomes in a Patient with Elevated Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 by Kathleen Minor, Heidi Leftwich

“…A 36-year-old gravida 6, para 1-1-3-1 with elevated prepregnancy PAI-1 levels, a history of early-onset preeclampsia with severe features superimposed on chronic hypertension, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), presented with a dichorionic-diamniotic twin gestation. She was managed with aspirin and enoxaparin and delivered appropriately grown twins at 36 weeks and 3 days, due to the development of preeclampsia superimposed on chronic hypertension. …”

An advection-diffusion-reaction size-structured fish population dynamics model combined with a statistical parameter estimation procedure: Application to the Indian Ocean skipjack... by Blaise Faugeras, Olivier Maury

“…We thendiscuss the numerical scheme chosen for the integration of thesimulation model.In a second step we address the parameter estimation problem for such a model.With the help of automatic differentiation, we derive the adjoint code which is usedto compute the exact gradient of a Bayesian cost functionmeasuring the distance between the outputs of the model and catch and length frequency data.A sensitivity analysis shows that not all parameters can be estimated from the data.Finally twin experiments in which pertubated parameters are recoveredfrom simulated data are successfully conducted.…”
