Abstract Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to derive an equation of state (EOS) for helium (He) bubbles in tungsten (W) and to study the growth of He bubbles under a W(100) surface until they burst.We study the growth as a function of the initial nucleation depth of the bubbles.During growth, successive loop-punching events are obse
The analysis of soil spatial property variability (fuzziness) are important for the interpretation of the site-specific ecosystems not only with respect to process investigations but also for soils modelling.The objective of the study was an attempt to identify the primary parameters influencing the spatial variability of soils available without th
Abstract Background Soil salinization is a worldwide problem that is intensifying because of the effects of climate change.An effective method for the reclamation of salt-affected soils involves initiating plant succession using fast growing, nitrogen fixing actinorhizal trees such as the Casuarina.The salt tolerance of Casuarina is enhanced by the
Background: Sparse data are available on rates of drug-induced pruritus, a well-recognized adverse reaction.We sought to assess relative rates of pruritus associated with commonly prescribed medications.Methods: Using the electronic medical record system EPIC, retrospective data were collected on patients seen at Johns Hopkins who received a medica
