This paper presents the results of a study that sheds new light on the shape of Swim - Junior Suits indifference curves in the Marschak-Machina triangle.The most important observation, obtained non-parametrically, concerns jumps in indifference curves at the triangle legs towards the triangle origin.These jumps, however, do not appear at the hypote
Stabilizing soft clay using geo-foam beads and cement bypass dust
Soft clays are usually classified according to their undrained shear strength, Su.Values of Su less than 12.5 kPa are associated with very soft clays.In addition to their low shear strength, soft clays exhibit high compressibility upon loading.Therefore, soft clays are considered to be problematic for foundation purposes.Geo-foam is an industrial m

Trends in insecticide resistance in Culex pipiens pallens over 20 years in Shandong, China
Abstract Background Culex pipiens pallens is the most abundant Culex mosquito species in northern China and is an important vector of bancroftian filariasis and, potentially, West Nile virus.Insecticides, particularly pyrethroids, are widely used for adult mosquito control.Insecticide resistance has become common in several mosquito species, and ve
