Background Cleanliness of hospital surfaces helps prevent healthcare-associated infections, but deus gorras comparative evaluations of various cleaning strategies during COVID-19 pandemic surges and worker shortages are scarce.Purpose and methods To evaluate the effectiveness of daily, enhanced terminal, and contingency-based cleaning strategies in
Near-term benefits from investment in climate adaptation complement long-term economic returns from emissions reduction
Abstract Previous studies have suggested that a combined strategy using both emissions abatement and climate adaptation can improve economic outcomes.Here, using a parsimonious economic-climate assessment model, we have shown that, relative to investment in abatement, adaptation has a much shorter timescale for economic return.Adaptation deployed i
Load Estimation of Offshore Wind Turbines
The influence of 3 MW Hywind-II wind turbine wakes from an upstream offshore floating wind turbine on a downstream turbine with a separation distance of seven rotor diameters was studied for a site in the Gulf of Maine.The turbines and the platforms were subjected to atmospheric boundary layer flows.Various sensitivity studies on fatigue loads with
Dynamic Imbalance Analysis and Stability Control of Galloping Gait for a Passive Quadruped Robot
Some imbalance and balance postures of a passive quadruped robot with a simplified mathematical model are studied.Through analyzing serra avatar price the influence of the touchdown angle of the rear leg on the posture of the trunk during the flight phase, the stability criterion is concluded: the closer are the two moments which are the zero time
