Detecting changes in population trends in infection surveillance using community SARS-CoV-2 prevalence as an exemplar by Pritchard, E, Vihta, K-D, Eyre, DW, Hopkins, S, Peto, TEA, Matthews, PC, Stoesser, N, Studley, R, Rourke, E, Diamond, I, Pouwels, KB, Walker, AS, COVID-19 Infection Survey Team

“…Change-points associated with emergence of major variants were estimated to occur a median 4 days earlier (IQR 0-8) in GAMs versus ISR. When estimating recent change-points using successive data periods, four change-points (4/96) identified by GAMs were not found when adding later data or by ISR. …”

Design of fully and unrestraint continuous beams using BS5950:2000 and Eurocode 3 by Zhang, Kailong

“…By switching to the Eurocodes, localized organizations are now qualified to bid for projects that are based in countries that, too, have adopted the Eurocodes since common grounds in civil and structural engineering are met.At this current point of time, designers who are used to the design procedures and the comprehensiveness in the British Standards would face much difficulty when carrying out the regular designing works due to the unfamiliarity of the Eurocodes.…”
