Realization and characterization of bilayer scaffold with molecularly imprinted hydrogel layer,
Automatic control valve induced transients in an operative pipe system.
In most cases, the final configuration of complex pipe networks is attained simply by connecting subsystems initially designed to work separately. Thus, automatic control valves (ACV) are often installed in
the confluence nodes where the subsystems meet. The present paper deals with the response and hydraulic behavior of ACVs, topics on which data are scarce. More precisely, attention is focused on transients, which occur in a water-distribution pipe system in operation due to the action of an ACV, both from an experimental
and numerical point of view. The aim of the water-hammer field tests is to enlarge the amount of the experimental data concerning unsteady-state flow processes in operating pipe systems. The numerical model extends to field conditions and ACVs laboratory work on the hydraulic characterization of valves and the unsteady-state friction simulation
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
