The accurate detection of ice hockey players and teams during a game is crucial to the tracking of individual players on the rink and team tactical decision making and is therefore becoming an important task for coaches and other analysts.However, hockey is a fluid sport due to its complex situation and the frequent substitutions by both teams, res
As massive tunneling projects become more and more popular, predicting the performance of Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) has been a problem that arose recently.A TBM is a modern piece of machinery that is specially assembled to excavate a tunnel more efficiently and safely.However, the performance of TBM is very difficult to estimate due to the differ
Flavonoids can exert beneficial health effects through multiple mechanisms.In this paper, we address the important, although not fully understood, capacity of flavonoids to interact with cell membranes.The interactions of polyphenols with bilayers include: (a) the partition of the more non-polar compounds in the hydrophobic interior of the membrane
Abstract The induction of antiviral innate immunity by systemic immunization with live virus can be employed to positively impact the response to therapeutic vaccination.We previously demonstrated that systemic immunization with a non-replicating Household Cleaning Products MVA encoding CD40 ligand (CD40L) enhances innate immune cell activation and
Functions of biomolecules, in particular enzymes, are usually modulated by structural fluctuations.This is especially the case in a gated diffusion-controlled reaction catalyzed by an enzyme such as acetylcholinesterase.The catalytic triad of acetylcholinesterase is located at the bottom of a long and narrow gorge, but it catalyzes the extremely ra
