Path Loss Channel Model for Inland River Radio Propagation at 1.4 GHz by Junyi Yu, Wei Chen, Kun Yang, Changzhen Li, Fang Li, Yishui Shui

“…Specifically, parameters optimization uses Okumura-Hata model in dB scale to replace the equation transformed from the free space loss in REL model; secondly, diffraction loss caused by the obstacles (e.g., large buildings, bridges, or some other facilities near the river bank) is also taken into account; mixed-path methodology as another improvement is used for Inland River (IR) model because the actual propagation environment between transmitter (TX) antenna and receiver (RX) antenna contains both land part and water part. …”

How Adhesion Molecule Patterns Change While Neutrophils Traffic through the Lung during Inflammation by Franziska M. Konrad, Julia Wohlert, Jutta Gamper-Tsigaras, Kristian-Christos Ngamsri, Jörg Reutershan

“…In acute pulmonary inflammation, polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) pass a transendothelial barrier from the circulation into the lung interstitium followed by a transepithelial migration into the alveolar space. These migration steps are regulated differentially by a concept of adhesion molecules and remain—despite decades of research—incompletely understood. …”

Protonation and Photocatalytic Activity of the Rb2La2Ti3O10 Layered Oxide in the Reaction of Hydrogen Production by Ivan A. Rodionov, Iuliia P. Sokolova, Oleg I. Silyukov, Alena A. Burovikhina, Sergey A. Fateev, Irina A. Zvereva

“…Each of these phase transformations is accompanied not only by the contraction of the interlayer distance but also by the displacement of adjacent perovskite layers by 1/2 of the cell parameter which results in the change in the space group. The photocatalytic activity of obtained samples decreases with the increase in the protonation degree, which correlates with the decrease in the intercalated water content.…”
