This paper presents two real case buildings that are redesigned considering the heave of the ground formation.The buildings are evaluated for upward swelling pressure, taking into account dead load, live load, and expansive soil load combinations.The criterion used to Pickled evaluate the safety of buildings constructed on expansive soils is first
Social interactions Apparel in insects are driven by conspecific chemical signals that are detected via olfactory and gustatory neurons.Odorant binding proteins (Obps) transport volatile odorants to chemosensory receptors, but their effects on behaviors remain poorly characterized.Here, we report that RNAi knockdown of Obp56h gene expression in Dro
Time difference of arrival (TDOA) and frequency difference of arrival (FDOA) have been widely used for localizing temporally continuous signals passively.Temporal sparsity of pulse signals makes their TDOA and FDOA estimation processes much different, and computational complexity is a major concern in this area.This paper addresses the problem of f
Gastric schwannomas are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from the nerve plexus of gut wall.They present with nonspecific symptoms and are often detected incidentally.Preoperative investigation is not pathognomic and many are therefore School Supplies, Office Organization, Document Organization and Protection, Sheet Protectors misdiagnosed as gast
The relentless role of invasive species in the extinction of native biota requires predictions of ecosystem vulnerability to inform proactive management strategies.The worldwide invasion and range expansion of predatory northern pike (Esox lucius) has been linked to the decline of native fishes and tools are needed to predict the vulnerability of h
