This study presents an optimization methodology to obtain the uniform thermal conditions over the 3-D design body (DB) in 3-D radiant furnaces.For uniform thermal conditions on the DB surfaces, optimal temperature of the heater and the best location of the DB inside the furnace are obtained by minimizing an objective function.The radiative heat tra
Antibiotic use in the community for humans and animals is high in Vietnam, driven by easy access to over-the counter medicines and poor understanding of the role of antibiotics.This has contributed to antibiotic resistance levels that are amongst the highest in the world.To address this problem, we developed a participatory learning and action (PLA
A tunable demultiplexer with three output channels infiltrated by liquid crystal (LC) is presented, which is based on a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide.The operating frequencies of the three output Socks Tights channels can be tuned simultaneously at will by changing the external bias electric field applied to the LC.By analyzing the Fabry-P&
There is increased attention paid to metallic nanoparticles due to their intensive use in various branches of agriculture and biotechnology, such as pest management, nanosensors, gene delivery, seed treatment, etc.There has been growing interest in applying environmentally friendly strategies for synthesizing nanoparticles without using substances
Abstract Background Landmark based geometric morphometrics (GM) allows the quantitative comparison of organismal shapes.When applied to systematics, it is able to score shape changes which often are undetectable by traditional morphological studies and even by classical morphometric approaches.It has thus become a fast and low cost candidate to ide
