Functional disability of road traffic injury patients admitted to the National Hospital of Sri Lanka on admission and three months after discharge from the hospital by Roshan Chaminda Sampath (19774524)

“…At three months after the injury significant increase proportion of functional disability was observed with increase number of body regions injured (p=0.000) and with increase injury severity (p=0.000). …”

Colloid retention and mobilization mechanisms under different physicochemical conditions in porous media: A micromodel study by Safna Nishad (16932474)

“…However, hydrophilic colloids redeposited on gas-water-solid interfaces or thin water films because of their greater capillary potential. Therefore, greater filtration efficiency is achieved with the hydrophilic colloids compared to the hydrophobic colloids for which the efficiency can be improved by changing the solution chemistry. …”

Bond durability of sand coated and ribbed basalt FRP bars embedded in high-strength concrete by Abathar Al-Hamrani (16494884)

“…However, specimens with high-strength concrete achieved most of or above their maximum bond strength after the descending stage, while those with normal-strength concrete showed a decrease in bond strength to an approximately constant value with continuous slip. …”

Evaluation of the cementite morphology influence on the hydrogen induced crack nucleation and propagation path in carbon steels by Shabnam Karimi (19457575)

“…The results show that both materials are resistant to crack initiation in the H-free condition while under −1050 mV charging, crack propagates through the grain boundaries in a tortuous path in spheroidite mi-crostructure and the lamellar microstructure displayed a higher strength with small cracks propagating through both the grain boundaries and the lamellas. A drastic load decrease in the load-displacement (L-D) curve happened under −1550 mV charging for both microstructures accompanied by a straight crack growth path in spheroidite microstruc-ture, independent of grain boundaries or ferrite-cementite interfaces while a competition between the shear crack growth mechanism and the interfacial cracking determines the crack growth path in the lamellar microstructure.…”

Alternative energy science and policy by Ammous, Saifedean H.

“…It is concluded that in situations where the cost and pollution functions of a fuel are unknown, subsidies, mandates and caps on the fuel might result in increased or decreased greenhouse gas emissions; on the other hand, a tax or cap on carbon dioxide results in the largest decrease possible of greenhouse gas emissions. …”
