Abstract Recently research show that some parameters such as the shapes of antenna patch and the ground plane when geometrically altered produces changes in the current density distribution of the planar structure and co...

Crevasse and overbank splay deposits have been studied in detail within the Isaac Formation. Crevasse splay units (CSU) range from 10 – 20 m thick and extend the length of the study area (> 4 km). Strata within CSU com...

 The article examines the development of diverse forms of activism within Ukrainian society and how citizens have been mobilised in response to oppressive authorities and war. Although the war has triggered a profound ...

The discontinuities distributed in underground structures are the important factors that affect the mechanical characteristics of rock mass, and to study the mechanical behavior of rock discontinuities under cyclic loadi...

With the discoveries of new hominin fossils from historically well-studied as well as poorly sampled regions, and thanks to great advances in paleogenetic studies, Asian paleoanthropology has now entered a new phase of r...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH). Large-pore MOFs provide high water capacity, but their significant hysteresis between sorption and desorption ...

The Wilcoxon rank sum nonparametric statistical test is introduced to establish an evaluation model for identifying structural domain boundaries in jointed rock masses. A new method for identifying structural domain boun...

Fractures are common in the Earth  crust due to different factors, for instance, tectonic stresses and natural or artificial hydraulic fracturing caused by a pressurized fluid. A dense set of fractures  behaves as an e...

Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) have found their key applications in high-sensitivity biomolecular detection and integrated photonic devices for optical communication via light manipulation at nanostructures. Despite t...

We study the effect of suddenly turning on a long-range interaction in a spinless Fermi gas in two dimensions. The short- to intermediate-time dynamics is described using the method of bosonization of the Fermi surface. ...

Abstract The recent cataloging of global microseisms benefits imaging of the Earth's interior with improved data coverage. Relying on the catalog, converted waves were extracted and employed to reveal variations of the m...

The seismic load has an adverse effect on the bearing capacity of the footings. However, few studies are performed to study its impact on the bearing capacity of slopes. In this study, a rigorous analysis in the framewor...

Five substituted pyrochlore nanooxides such as Nd1.9Ho0.1Zr1.8Ce0.2O7, La1.95Ce0.05Zr0.29Ce1.71O7, Y1.79Pr0.21Ru1.99Pr0.01O7, Dy1.9Yb0.1Mn1.93Cu0.07O7 and Dy1.99Sr0.01Sn2O7 were synthesized by coprecipitation method. The...

The purpose of the paper is to evaluate the effect of a professional effectiveness enhancing programme on unemployment spells.The analysedprogramme was implemented by the PoviatLabour Office in Szczecin in 2010 and was t...

Abstract Introduction Varicella, caused by the varicella zoster virus, poses a significant public health challenge, particularly among children. To address this, the city of Shenzhen, China, introduced a publicly funded ...

25 years after the first competitive elections, the Romanian party system still exhibits high levels of discontinuity between electoral competitions and governmental functioning. Despite the ongoing party consolidation p...

Probabilistic analysis is an emerging field of structural engineering which is very significant in structures of great importance like dams, nuclear reactors etc. In this work a Neural Networks (NN) based Monte Carlo Sim...

The transition from adolescence to young adulthood presents an opportunity for health promotion and illness prevention. However, the transition from pediatric to adult healthcare services is complex and exposes systemic ...

This study integrates sedimentological, ichnological and palaeoecological analyses in order to better understand the origin of a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate succession deposited during the early Late Valanginian in the...
