Multi-objective scheduling problems are inherently complex due to the need to balance competing objectives, such as minimizing the total weighted completion time, reducing the number of delayed jobs, and minimizing the maximum weighted delay.To address these challenges, this article introduces the meerkat clan algorithm (MCA), inspired by the dynam
The aim of this study was to investigate the healing process of experimental defects of the femoral shaft diaphysis of rats after implantation of osteoplastic material Collapan into its cavity.In experi-mental animals, a perforated defect with diameter of 2.5 mm was created in the Fan Assembly medullary canal of the femoral shaft and filled with os
Managing chronic non-healing wounds presents a significant clinical challenge due to their frequent bacterial infections.Mesoporous silica-based materials possess robust wound-healing capabilities attributed to their renowned antimicrobial properties.The current study details the advancement of mesoporous silicon-loaded MnO and CaO molecules (HMn-C
Objectives Key populations, including sex workers, men who have sex with men, and people who inject drugs, have a high risk of HIV and sexually transmitted infections.We assessed the health and economic impacts of different HIV and syphilis testing strategies among three key populations in Viet Nam using a dual HIV/syphilis rapid diagnostic test (R
We report the design and implementation of a unique, wafer sized stretchable and bendable monolithic silicon matrix structure.The achieved stretchability allows for simultaneous omnidirectional folding, required to conform the structure to complex curved 3D surfaces.Moreover, it also enables dynamic mechanical deformation of the structure to Body W
