ENHANCING LITHIC ANALYSIS: INTRODUCING 3D-EDGEANGLE AS A SEMI-AUTOMATED 3D DIGITAL METHOD TO SYSTEMATICALLY QUANTIFY STONE TOOL EDGE ANGLE AND DESIGN.

In stone tool studies, the analysis of different technological and typological features is known to provide distinct but interrelated information on the design and use of artefacts.The selection of these features can potentially influence the understanding and reconstruction of past human technological behaviour across time.One feature frequently p

Colorants used in security inks are special pigments that radiate in the UV region or IR region.Obtained pigments can be from valuable rare earth elements or they can be organic based.Organic-based pigments are generally insoluble in water, which limits their use.For this purpose, an organic based UV-radiating pigment was synthesized and made water

Few if any natural resource systems are completely understood and fully observed.Instead, there almost always is uncertainty about the way a system works and its status at any given time, which can limit effective management.A natural approach to uncertainty is to allocate time and effort to the collection of additional data, on the reasonable assu

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis of published randomized controlled trials examines a possible relationship between optical spot size at surface tissue, irradiance, radiant exposure, total energy delivered, operator technique and reported clinical outcomes.Background: Clinical photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy has achieved a high

Using basic electro-elastic formulation and variational formulation, a higher order finite element model has been developed for the analysis of debonding in a smart cantilever beam.Full length piezo patch embedded at the top and bottom of the aluminium core has been assumed to be de-bonded.The debonding has been incorporated at the interfaces betwe
