Current calculation methods for the vertical bearing capacity of steel pipe piles are predominantly designed for smaller diameters and do not account for the soil inside the pile.This necessitates an evaluation of their applicability to piles with diameters exceeding 2.0 m.This study aims to refine the existing formula for calculating vertical bear
Discretionary firm donation is usually related to the stakeholder theory and corporate social performance.Although theoretical explanations for this social behavior are pervasive in related literature, empirical modeling remains underdeveloped.We developed an explanatory structural model of discretionary firm donation using firm and industry level
Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is increasingly recognized for its association with autoimmune and inflammatory complications.Despite recent advances in immunophenotypic and genetic discovery, clinical care of CVID remains limited by our inability to accurately model risk for non-infectious disease development.Herein, we demonstrate the uti
Abstract Due to the characteristic of transmitting multiplexed signals in superposed mode over the same spectrum, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology is deemed as a promising way to improve spectral efficiency in fifth generation (5G) networks.In this paper, we develop a NOMA cooperative system based on the two-path successive relaying
