In this study, a novel symbolic regression-based empirical Container equation has been developed to compute the joint roughness coefficient (JRC) value based on the statistical parameters of rock joints.The symbolic regression was adopted to map the nonlinear function, which represents the relation between the JRC and statistical parameters of the

Humans can acquire a wide variety of motor skills using sensory feedback pertaining to discrepancies between KNIFE CARE intended and actual movements.Acupuncture needle manipulation involves sophisticated hand movements and represents a fundamental skill for acupuncturists.We investigated whether untrained students could improve their motor perform

Theoretical background: The process of aging has profound economic consequences for many countries, as it increases the number of beneficiaries of the pension system and extends the period of receiving pension benefits.We claim that understanding individual preferences concerning the retirement age is one of the key factors of successful reforms of

On November 19, 2020, the annual International Research and Practice Conference Ignatov Readings took place.It was dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the outstanding scientist - Vadim Nikolayevich Makhov - Nail Lacquer an Honored Lawyer of the Russian Federation, Doctor of Legal Sciencies, Full Professor, whose life and scientific work have been

Forces due to propulsion should approximate forces due to hydrodynamic drag for animals horizontally swimming at a constant speed with negligible buoyancy forces.Propulsive forces should also correlate with energy expenditures associated with locomotion-an important cost of foraging.As such, biologging tags containing accelerometers are being used
