More than two decades, after the emerging of post- modern architecture, the split between construction technology and cultural expression in architecture appeared to become wider and wider.With the exception of a few "high-tech" buildings, the unity of art and applied science (technology) in design seems facing challenges.It is interesting to see h

Analysis of the dynamics of land use and land cover change (LULCC) along rivers that supply water to settlements provides crucial information to decision-makers; it offers information for planners and water supply authorities on water management issues in general.The paper analyzed LULCC along Boteti and Thamalakane rivers and predicted the probabl

This paper proposes a probabilistic model for assessment of fighter aircraft mission survivability.Mission survivability analysis is a critical phase for both design of the fighter aircraft and evaluation of its performance.The standard deterministic performance metrics such as aircraft agility and manoeuvrability are not Nitric Oxide sufficient to

Abstract Background We dissected total power into its primary components to resolve its relative contributions to tissue damage (VILI).We hypothesized that driving power or elastic (dynamic) power offers more precise VILI risk indicators than raw total power.The relative correlations of these three measures of power with VILI-induced histologic cha
