A data driven deep neural network model for predicting boiling heat transfer in helical coils under high gravity
(2021-02-01)
In this article, a deep artificial neural network (ANN) model has been proposed to predict the boiling heat transfer in helical coils under high gravity conditions, which is compared with experimental data. A test rig is ...
The transition home of extremely premature babies: An integrative review
(2021-02)
Taking a premature baby home after an often-protracted period on the neonatal unit can be stressful for parents and they are often confronted with an unexpected reality. The transition to motherhood and parenthood has ...
A Technical Analysis Investigating Energy Sustainability Utilizing Reliable Renewable Energy Sources to Reduce CO2 Emissions in a High Potential Area
(2021-02-01)
Reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions will have a positive impact on the environment by preventing adverse effects of global warming. To achieve an eco-environment, the primary source of energy needs to shift from ...
Using arts-based digital storytelling in neonatal care to enhance nursing students’ empathy
(2021-02-01)
Background; Patient stories can be used to teach difficult topics about emotionally challenging times. Digital storytelling using an arts-based approach can improve nurses’ understanding of emotional experiences relating ...
Generating photo-realistic training data to improve face recognition accuracy
(2021-02-01)
Face recognition has become a widely adopted biometric in forensics, security and law enforcement thanks to the high accuracy achieved by systems based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, to achieve good ...
The implications of face masks for babies and families during the COVID-19 pandemic: A Discussion Paper
(2021-02-01)
COVID-19 has changed the way that newborn babies are cared for within the neonatal setting due to the introduction of social distancing and wearing of face masks to limit the spread of the infection. Potential implications ...
Fungal diversity and metabolomic profiles in GM and isogenic non-GM maize cultivars from Brazil
(2021-02-01)
There is little knowledge of the microbial diversity, mycotoxins and associated secondary metabolites in GM maize and isogenic non-GM cultivars (cvs). This study has quantified the microbial populations and dominant fungal ...
Experimental and simulation analysis on multi-gate variants in sand casting process
(2021-02-01)
The present work proposes an improved multi-gate designs (MGDs) in sand casting process, using both experimental and simulation (FLOW 3D) approaches, aiming to produce defect-free component. In this regard, the variant ...
Re-sensitization of Mycobacterium smegmatis to Rifampicin Using CRISPR Interference Demonstrates Its Utility for the Study of Non-essential Drug Resistance Traits
(2021-02-01)
A greater understanding of the genes involved in antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is necessary for the design of improved therapies. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat ...
Exploring modifiable risk factors for premature birth in the context of COVID-19 mitigation measures: A discussion paper
(2021-02-01)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, parents with sick or premature babies have faced challenges following admission to a neonatal unit due to the imposed lock-down restrictions on social contact, hospital visitation and the ...
