In this article, we propose and study a new form of admissible pressure in the Haldanian framework. We then use it to study the surjectivity of the Gradient Factors on the space of the reachable decompression profiles, and investigate a particular case. This case leads to the proposition of a decompression strategy, whose crucial parameter is the ascent rate. An appropriate ascent rate is suggested as recommended by COMEX, through a physiologically relevantmethod. This new strategy enables the unification of the COMEX approach (not based on a tissuesaturation theory), with the Haldanian method.

Human rights investigations demand reliable data sources to substantiate alleged events, and satellite imagery offers diverse options crucial for evidential support. This paper delineates how Earth Observation (EO) imagery can be tailored to align with the requirements outlined by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) indicators, facilitating stakeholders in optimising their studies with applicable technological applications. To streamline EO technology, the paper categorises it into six primary payloads capable of observing such events: multispectral visible.

Documentary archives, human remains, and witness testimony are often critical to transitional justice court proceedings and peace-building projects after mass violence. But what happens when those forms of evidence are missing? Can art stand in for the dead? Considering the use of art in Vann Nath's testimony in the trial of Kaing Guek Eav (Duch) in the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia, in this paper, I argue that in the first case for the ECCC, Vann Nath's art performed a similar role to that of human remains in other trials, providing evidence and proof of human rights violations including torture, cruel and inhuman treatment, arbitrary detention, and mass killing, while also activating affect (drawing on Hughes). As such, it provided a form of social proof, in a way similar to the human remains retained from the genocide and displayed across Cambodia.

Expert testimony can play a pivotal role in a legal case involving a medical issue, but it is crucial that this testimony be scientifically sound. In the United States, the Frye Standard demanded that such expert medical testimony be "generally accepted," but it has been superseded by the more demanding Daubert Standard. Under Daubert, judges became "gatekeepers" as to what scientific material was admissible in court and what might be dismissed as junk science.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: In preparing the article, the following issues were worked out: the provisions of international legal acts; legal positions of the ECHR related to the use of medical knowledge in the criminal process; scientific studies of various aspects of the use of medical knowledge in the criminal process. The methodological basis of the research is dialectical, comparative-legal, systemic-structural, analytical, synthetic, complex research methods.

In practical industrial processes, the receding optimization solution of nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is always a very knotty problem. Based on adaptive dynamic programming, the accelerated value iteration predictive control (AVI-PC) algorithm is developed in this paper. Integrating iteration learning with the receding horizon mechanism of NMPC, a novel receding optimization solution pattern is exploited to resolve the optimal control law in each prediction horizon.
