Journal Article
Xiu, Z., Wang, S., Ji, Y., Wang, F., & Ren, F. (2020). Experimental investigation on liquefaction and post-liquefaction deformation of stratified saturated sand under cyclic loading. Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 79, 2313-2324. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10064-019-01696-8

The soils are often distributed in a stratified structure. When an earthquake occurs, there are always risks of liquefaction for stratified soils which can cause serious consequences. The research aims to investigate the liquefaction and post-liquefa...

The nonlinear dynamics of coupled waves in one-dimensional granular chains with and without a substrate is theoretically studied accounting for quadratic nonlinearity. The multiple time scale method is used to derive the nonlinear dispersion relati... Read More about Nonlinear dynamics of coupled transverse-rotational waves in granular chains.

EBNO : evolution of cost-sensitive Bayesian networks (2019)
Journal Article

The last decade has seen an increase in the attention paid to the development of cost sensitive learning algorithms that aim to minimize misclassification costs while still maintaining accuracy. Most of this attention has been on cost sensitive dec... Read More about EBNO : evolution of cost-sensitive Bayesian networks.

Behavioural responses in a congested sea : an observational study on a coastal nest-guarding fish (2019)
Journal Article
Mascolino, S., Mariani, S., & Benvenuto, C. (2019). Behavioural responses in a congested sea : an observational study on a coastal nest-guarding fish. The European Zoological Journal, 86(1), 504-518. https://doi.org/10.1080/24750263.2019.1699611

The deleterious effects of anthropogenic noise on animal communication are nowadays recognised, not only in urban environments but also in terrestrial habitats and along coasts and in open waters. Yet, the assessment of short- and long-term exposure... Read More about Behavioural responses in a congested sea : an observational study on a coastal nest-guarding fish.

Immune checkpoints in circulating and tumor-Infiltrating CD4 + T Cell Subsets in Colorectal cancer patients (2019)
Journal Article
Toor, S., Murshed, K., Al-Dhaheri, M., Khawar, M., Abu Nada, M., & Elkord, E. (2019). Immune checkpoints in circulating and tumor-Infiltrating CD4 + T Cell Subsets in Colorectal cancer patients. Frontiers in Immunology, 10, 2936. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2019.02936

Blockade of inhibitory immune checkpoints (ICs) is a promising therapeutic approach; however, it has shown limited success in some cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC). The tumor microenvironment (TME) is largely responsible for response to ther...
