Abstract Lassa fever (LF) is a devastating viral disease prevalent in West Africa.Efforts to take on this public health crisis have been hindered by lack of infrastructure and rapid field deployable diagnosis in areas where the disease is prevalent.Recent capacity building at the Kenema Government Hospital Lassa Fever Ward (KGH LFW) in Sierra Leone
Due to the existence of machining and installation errors, axis parallelism error of gear pairs occurs, which causes eccentric load and mesh in-out impact, thus weakening loaded transmission character.To solve this problem, the axis parallelism error of gear pairs was equated with tooth axial inclination error based on the gear-meshing principle.On
The Fukushima nuclear power plant blast resulted in the release of 131Iodine for several weeks.This unexpected issue challenged the iodin doctrine [1], in which the counter-measure is to provide a unique iodine tablet to saturate thyroid during the radioactive contamination not expected to last more than several hours.A new doctrine must be impleme
Nowadays, the demand for fiber-based composites increases continuously compared to conventional materials because of their excellent mechanical properties.Synthetic fibers have specific advantages over natural fibers.It includes strength to weight ratio, durability, wrinkle resistance, and the ability to absorb moisture is less.However, the synthet
