PAKISTAN TEXTILES CAN BOUNCE BACK VIGOROUSLY

How to bounce back from adversity.

Drops can bounce from perfectly hydrophilic surfaces

Drops are well known to rebound from superhydrophobic surfaces and from liquid surfaces. Here, we show that drops can also rebound from a superhydrophilic solid surface such as an atomically smooth mica sheet. However, the coefficient of restitution CR associated with this process is significantly lower than that associated with rebound from superhydrophobic surfaces. A direct imaging method al...

Spectral analysis of transport equations with bounce-back boundary conditions

We investigate the spectral properties of the time-dependent linear transport equation with bounce-back boundary conditions. A fine analysis of the spectrum of the streaming operator is given and the explicit expression of the strongly continuous streaming semigroup is derived. Next, making use of a recent result from [1], we prove, via a compactness argument, that the essential spectrum of the...

The brief resilience scale: assessing the ability to bounce back.

BACKGROUND While resilience has been defined as resistance to illness, adaptation, and thriving, the ability to bounce back or recover from stress is closest to its original meaning. Previous resilience measures assess resources that may promote resilience rather than recovery, resistance, adaptation, or thriving. PURPOSE To test a new brief resilience scale. METHOD The brief resilience sca...

Bounce-back visits in a rural emergency department.

INTRODUCTION The rate of return visits at urban emergency departments (EDs) has been reported as approximately 3% within 72 hours of discharge. However, the current literature does not indicate the rate of return visits for rural EDs. The purpose of this study was to determine the bounce-back rate at a rural ED and to characterize the visits. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed...
