Modeling the effect of grain boundary diffusivity and trapping on hydrogen transport using a phase-field compatible form...
Hydrogen grain boundary (GB) trapping is widely accepted as the main cause for hydrogen induced intergranular failure. Several studies were conducted to unveil the role of GBs on hydrogen transport; however, a clear understanding is yet to be attained. This is due to the limitations of the state-of-the-art experimental procedures for such highly ki...
The out-of-sample $R^2$: estimation and inference
Out-of-sample prediction is the acid test of predictive models, yet an independent test dataset is often not available for assessment of the prediction error. For this reason, out-of-sample performance is commonly estimated using data splitting algorithms such as cross-validation or the bootstrap. For quantitative outcomes, the ratio of variance ex...

Three-dimensional finite element simulations of fretting wear in steel wires used in coal mine hoisting system
Fretting wear is a surface damage phenomenon that occurs at contacting surfaces due to the micro relative movements of contacting surfaces. It is not easy to consider the parametric study of this phenomenon by experimental methods. For example, it is not straightforward to measure the contact stresses and wear scars under different loading conditio...
Development of Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) Domains in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps.
...
Published in The Laryngoscope
The 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) is a validated chronic rhinosinusitis health-related quality-of-life outcome (HRQoL) measure; however, SNOT-22 domains have not been validated specifically for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Validation of SNOT-22 domain structure, using data from 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, doub...
Small-strain shear modulus of calcareous sand under anisotropic consolidation
In this study, the small strain shear modulus of a calcareous sand was investigated by conducting bender element tests on both horizontal and vertical planes. The effects of sample preparation method, stress path and stress history on the developing of void ratio, the parameters in the modified Hardin equation and the stiffness anisotropy were exam...
Solids lateral mixing and compartmentalization in dynamically structured gas-solid fluidized beds
An adequate use of gas pulsation can create an ordered, dynamically structured bubble flow in a bed of Geldart B particles. A structured bed is more homogeneous, responds to external control and is scalable. While earlier studies have focused on describing the self-organization of the gas bubbles, the solid mixing and gas-solid contact patterns hav...
