Ethanolic extract of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.) larvae for wound healing in mice (Mus musculus L.)

The Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens L.) or BSF is one of a group of insects that has a length of 15-20 mm originating from America. The larvae of the BSF has a high protein content (44.26%), which has great potential in treating wound ...

Extended Fibonacci numbers and polynomials with probability applications

The extended Fibonacci sequence of numbers and polynomials is introduced and studied. The generating function, recurrence relations, an expansion in terms of multinomial coefficients, and several properties of the extended Fibonacci numbers...

Determinação do Perfil Ótimo de Alimentação de Substrato no Processo de Fermentação Alcoólica - Influência da Condição Inicial

A otimização dinâmica do processo de fermentação batelada alimentada, através do controle da vazão de alimentação de substrato, caracteriza um problema de controle singular de difícil solução devido à flutuação do índice diferencial e da...

Geometrical reasoning in the determination of the order of factorial

It is shown here how to interpret Stirling’s formula geometrically, moreover, how geometrical reasoning can serve determining the proper magnitude of the logarithm of the factorial....

Pedestrian–bus route and pickup location planning for emergency evacuation

Planning for a bus-based regional evacuation is essential for emergency preparedness, especially for hurricane or flood prone urban environments with large numbers of transit-dependent or transit-captive populations. This paper develops an ...

An Improved Blockchain-Based Lightweight Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Handover Authentication Protocol for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

We conduct a cryptanalysis of the Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) handover authentication protocol newly developed by Son et al., which incorporates blockchain technology for authentication purposes. Although this approach is notably effici...

Coordination of Plug-In Electric Vehicle Charging in a Stochastic Framework: A Decentralized Tax/Incentive-Based Mechanism to Reach Global Optimality

We address the problem of charging plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in a decentralized way and under stochastic dynamics affecting the real-time electricity tariff. The model is formulated as a Nash equilibrium seeking problem, where player...

A quasitopos containing CONV and MET as full subcategories

We show that convergence spaces with continuous maps and metric spaces with contractions, can be viewed as entities of the same kind. Both can be characterized by a “limit function” λ which with each filter ℱ associates a map λℱ from the un...

Developing a Mobile Game Using Scientific Approach to Support Mathematics Learning

The widespread use of smartphones to play games and the lack of use as a medium for learning mathematics is the reason for the need for the development of smartphone-based edutainment learning media. The purpose of this research is to desig...
