Lekythos used to contain perfumed oil often associated with funerary rites. This example has a trumpet-shaped mouth, painted inside and out, a narrow neck, a single handle joining it to the shoulder, and cylindrical body on a circular foot. On the upper wall of the body is a band of dots with the scene below it: painted on a red-ground, having accessories of purple and incised lines, with three black figures: Dionysos at the...

Silver coin well centered on both sides; Publius Crepusius, republican moneyer, known only from his coins. What we know of him and his family is practically limited to a single short statement: he was one third of the triumvir monetalis in 82-81 BC. On the obverse of this denarius, laureate head of Apollo facing right; behind a scepter over shoulder and control mark, N; before, another control mark below chin, a staff with hook. On...

Greek mould-made terracotta seated figure of a veiled woman or goddess, possibly Demeter (Ceres), protector of the fertility of the earth and both farming and wheat. She sits on a quadrilateral stool, holding a child on her left arm, possibly her daughter Kore (Persephone). Demeter’s facial features are still visible but the body and dress are in poor condition. The feet are visible on a lower base. This type of figurine, found mainly in tombs...

Corinthian sea-urchin-shaped aryballos with round bottom, decorated with parallel lines on the short neck and shoulder and with dots and various filler ornaments and incisions (lines, network, quatrefoil pattern with interstices and petals) on the spherical body, black on a light background. Around and on upper surface of the disc mouth are a simple pattern of concentric circles. The decoration under the thin vertical handle, possibly a rough crossed circle, has faded out. Particularly...

Abstract Background International guidelines recommend delayed umbilical cord clamping (DCC) up to 1 min in preterm infants, unless the condition of the infant requires immediate resuscitation. However, clamping the cord prior to lung aeration may severely limit circulatory adaptation resulting in a reduction in cardiac output and hypoxia. Delaying cord clamping until lung aeration and ventilation have been established (physiological-based cord clamping, PBCC) allows for an adequately established pulmonary circulation and results in a more...

At present there are concerns that new housing in the UK under-performs in terms of energy-efficiency. In research studies where the thermal performance of the building fabric has been measured, post-construction, significant gaps between design predictions and the as-built performance of new housing have been found. This thesis is concerned with how thermography may be used to assess the thermal performance of new housing during the construction process. The practical utility of this testing approach,...

Gnathian Epichysis for pouring perfumed oil and other expensive liquids. Named after the ancient city of Gnathia in Southern Italy (region of Apulia), Gnathian ware vessels were painted in a variety of colours and were characteristic of the late 4th century BCE pottery production in Southern Italy, although also extensively traded to the rest of the Mediterranean. The ovoid curved body leads to a tubular neck and a slender beaked spout joined to the...

Early Imperial mold-made ceramic vessel without handle and body with closed shape and curved sides. The discus of the lamp shows the hunter Actaeon being torn apart by his own dog on the left with a filling hole between his legs, to lower centre; he leans back holding a spear in left hand, right arm raising a club, ready to strike the hound leaping up against his right leg; he is nude except for drapery...

Strigils are tools, mainly in hammered bronze, that were essential to the care of the skin in Ancient Greece and Rome: they were used to scrape dirt and perspiration from the body after an application of perfumed olive oil. These skin care procedures are commonly represented on vases and grave steles, showing soldiers, athletes following the routine after bathing or exercising, equipped with a strigil, an aryballos (flask for perfumed oil) and a sponge. Some...

The stirrup jar, also known as a “false-neck amphora”, is one of the most common Mycenaean pottery forms, commonly found in tombs and used to contain liquids such as oil or wine; it was a popular vessel, mass produced and exported from Cyprus to South Italy. It takes its name from the presence of a pouring spout and a false neck at the centre of the terracotta vessel joined to the shoulders by handles...

Attic terracotta skyphos (storage jar for wine) with a stemmed base, a deep bowl and twin, upturned loop handles, all upon a concave base. The rim and lip are thin and left red. The exterior walls are decorated with black-figure technique on red background: the deep drinking cup is flanked by two Sphynxes with wings recurved facing each other and with rough details incised. Close to the handles, is a stylized flower. Black glaze...

This page introduces the DIPS (Distributed and Intelligent Power Systems) platform. DIPS is one outcome of the development of the Monash Microgrid, as part of the Net Zero Initiative. It provides a lens into the Clayton campus of Monash University, whereby distributed energy resources (DERs), outside of performing their operational role in decarbonizing Monash’s operations, appear as instruments in a research laboratory. The campus is then a research environment for performing experiments on “smarts” coordinating...

Geometric constraint algorithms can solve phase ambiguity for fringe projection profilometry. However, they either require multiple cameras or suffer from a small measurement depth range. To overcome these limitations, this letter proposes an algorithm combining orthogonal fringe projection and geometric constraints. A novel scheme is developed to assess the reliabilities of the potential homologous points, which works with depth segmentation to determine the final homologous points. With full consideration of lens distortions, the algorithm reconstructs...

Abstract In oral and maxillofacial surgery, flap repair is essential to the quality of postoperative life. Still, thrombosis is fatal for the survival of the flaps. Besides, some postoperative thrombotic diseases, such as pulmonary embolism, also intimidate patients’ life. The traditional diagnostic methods are still limited by a large amount of hardware and suffer from inconvenience, delay, and subjectivity. Moreover, the treatments mainly rely upon thrombolytics, such as urokinase (UK) plasminogen activator, which may cause...

Abstract Background Periodontal accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) is a widely-used clinical procedure that combines selective alveolar corticotomy, particulate bone grafting, and the application of orthodontic forces. Different modifications of PAOO such as collagen-membrane coverage can better benefit patients from preventing displacement of grafts. Due to its stability, collagen-membrane coverage gradually gained popularity and became a widely-used procedure in traditional PAOO technique. Objectives To quantitatively investigate the radiographic changes of alveolar bone, periodontal soft tissue changes...
