Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConcentric Circles Painting Versus Back-and-Forth Scrubbing: A Comparison Between Two Skin Disinfection TechniquesKai Beng Tan, Yu Cheng Chiu, Audrey Tham et al.Traditionally, skin disinfection is performed in concentric circles. In recent years, there are studies which suggest that back-and-forth scrubbing could be a better technique. However, there is insufficient evidence to demonstrate which disinfection technique is better in reducing microbial load prior to invasive procedures. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of concentric circles painting and back-and-forth scrubbing skin disinfection … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2021 · 10,382 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractDemonstration of the Structural Resiliency of Damaged Sentryglas Laminated Heat Strengthened Glass Fins in Full Scale TestingFred Veer, Diana de Krom, Rob NijsseA unique structural design was made for the glass façade of the Co-Creation Center building in Delft. The roof is completely carried by the glass fins. The fins are laterally stabilized by being included in the triple glazed façade. To certify the safety of the design full scale tests on the fins were done at Delft University of Technology. Due … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2021 · 6,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvising Approach to Enhance Students' Performance Level in Higher Education EnvironmentsAya M. Mostafa, Ayman E. Khedr, A. AbdoIntended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) is a major new approach to enhance students' performance level at any higher education institution. Moreover, it supports decision making based on the extracted information. It works as a framework for continuous improvement and evaluation in higher education environments.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrime Rate Analysis and Mapping from Socio-Economic Data Using Deep Neural NetworksSanthosh Sankara, Nadeson SugithaCrime prediction is the attempt to identify and mitigate future criminal activity. Crime is typically "unpredictable"; it cannot be predicted in advance. Addressing the roots of crime has long been a priority for researchers. Extracting causality from data is difficult if the relevant data aspects are not selected. In this research activity, an innovative classification framework is defined which is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 10 · 17 Aug 2024 · 5,097 accessesView PDFCite
