ObjectivesTo reduce the vibration of stern structure excited by lateral propeller forces, the application Anti-Spatter of vibration isolation, vibration blocking masses and damping coating is carried out.MethodsFirst, the vibration transmission characteristics of the shaft-stern coupled system are obtained through vibration testing, then the latera

This paper presents work undertaken as Pull-Up Diapers part of the European H2020 project OptEEmAL (Optimized Energy Efficient Design Platform for Refurbishment at District Level), toward development of a decision-support platform for building and district refurbishment interventions.We describe a methodology for generation and evaluation of refurb

Silica nanoparticles have become promising carriers for drug delivery or gene therapy.Endothelial cells could be directly exposed to silica nanoparticles by intravenous administration.However, the underlying toxic effect mechanisms of silica nanoparticles on endothelial cells are still poorly understood.In order to clarify the cytotoxicity of endot
