Air distribution to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in the furnace of a boiler with tangential combustion scheme

Relevance. Determined by the importance of analyzing the combustion characteristics and factors affecting the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the furnace chamber of pulverized coal-fired power boiler unit when installing tertiary air n...

Mechanical properties and constitutive analyses of basalt fiber crumb rubber mortars in soft rock roadways

Uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves of several groups of basalt fiber crumb rubber mortars (BF-CRM) with different contents are tested. By comparing with the GZH model, the improved values of the parameters of the BF-CRM constitutive ...

Association of SLC6A3 variants with treatment-resistant schizophrenia: a genetic association study of dopamine-related genes in schizophrenia

BackgroundMost genetic analyses that have attempted to identify a locus or loci that can distinguish patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) from those who respond to treatment (non-TRS) have failed. However, evidence from mul...

BRI1 EMS SUPPRESSOR1 genes regulate abiotic stress and anther development in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

BRI1 EMS SUPPRESSOR1 (BES1) family members are crucial downstream regulators that positively mediate brassinosteroid signaling, playing vital roles in the regulation of plant stress responses and anther development in Arabidopsis. Important...

Bone Diagenesis in Short Timescales: Insights from an Exploratory Proteomic Analysis

The evaluation of bone diagenetic phenomena in archaeological timescales has a long history; however, little is known about the origins of the microbes driving bone diagenesis, nor about the extent of bone diagenesis in short timeframes—suc...

Toward 3D reconstruction of damaged vehicles for investigating traffic accidents in Thailand using a photogrammetric approach

Traffic accident investigation by the police forensic science department in Thailand is essential to determine their causes. The collection of forensic evidence from damaged vehicles after an accident plays a significant role in damage asse...

VirtualToxLab™ - In silico prediction of the toxic (endocrine-disrupting) potential of drugs, chemicals and natural products. Two years and 2,000 compounds of experience: a progress report

The VirtualToxLab™ is an in silico tool for predicting the toxic (endocrine-disrupting) potential of drugs, chemicals and natural products. It is based on a fully automated protocol and calculates the binding affinity of any molecule of int...

Pré-localisation des données pour la modélisation 3D de tunnels : développements et évaluations

Le présent article décrit l'implémentation d'une méthode de pré-location décimétrique d'images au sein de grands volumes de données dans des tunnels navigables et routiers. Elle repose sur une technique d'odométrie visuelle simplifiée, ce q...

Numerical Modal Analysis of Vibrations in a Three-Phase Linear Switched Reluctance Actuator

This paper addresses the problem of vibrations produced by switched reluctance actuators, focusing on the linear configuration of this type of machines, aiming at its characterization regarding the structural vibrations. The complexity of t...

О классе потенциалов с тривиальной монодромией

Рассматривается задача описания класса TM(Ω;A) потенциалов, мероморфных в односвязной области Ω, с множеством полюсов A, удовлетворяющих условию тривиальной монодромии: любое решение соответствующего уравнения Штурма–Лиувилля при всех зн...

Superconformal indices of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Chern-Simons matter theories

Abstract Gaiotto and Witten found that one can construct 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Chern-Simons matter theories by using N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SCFT whose momentum map of global symmetries satisfy special condition. Usually, one uses free...

IWT and RSA based asymmetric image encryption algorithm

An asymmetric image encryption algorithm based on integer wavelet transformation (IWT) and Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, two plain characteristic parameters (PCP) of the plain image are extracted and two random...

Optimal decay rates for higher-order derivatives of solutions to 3D compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations with external force

We investigate optimal decay rates for higher-order spatial derivatives of solutions to the 3D compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations with external force. The main novelty of this article is twofold: First, we prove the first and seco...
