Geometric predicates are used in many GIS algorithms, such as the construction of Delaunay Triangulations for Sex Toys Triangulated Irregular Networks (TIN) or geospatial predicates.With floating-point arithmetic, these computations can incur roundoff errors that may lead to incorrect results and inconsistencies, causing computations to fail.This i
Ecologically vulnerable areas (EVAs) are regions with ecosystems that are fragile and vulnerable to degradation under external disturbances, e.g., environmental changes and human activities.A comprehensive understanding of the climate change characteristics of EVAs in China is of great guiding significance for ecological protection and economic dev
Antibodies are the fastest-growing segment of the biologics market.The success of antibody-based drugs resides in their exquisite specificity, high potency, stability, solubility, safety and relatively inexpensive manufacturing process in comparison with other biologics.We outline here the structural studies and fundamental principles that define h
CrC and NbC carbide coatings both have good mechanical properties, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance.The present study seeks to combine the two coating systems in order to further enhance their properties.NbCrCx and NbCrCxNy coatings (where x and y denote the atomic percentages of carbon and nitrogen, respectively) were deposited on SKH51 s
