River restoration projects, which aim at improved flood safety and increased ecological value, have resulted in more heterogeneous vegetation.However, they also resulted in increasing hydraulic roughness, which leads to higher flood water levels during peak discharges.Due to allowance of vegetation development and succession, both ecological and hy
Numerical investigation of unsteady detonation waves in combustion chamber using Shchelkin spirals
: Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) is considered to be a propulsive system of future air vehicles.The main objective is to minimizing the Deflagration to Detonation transition run-up distance and time by placing Shchelkin spiral with varying pitch length.Here we click here have considered blockage-area ratio is 0.5 as optimal value from review of prev
Bacterial Lux Biosensors in Genotoxicological Studies
The aim of this study was to assess the applicability of the bacterial lux biosensors for genotoxicological studies.Biosensors are the strains of E.coli MG1655 carrying a recombinant plasmid with the lux operon of the luminescent bacterium P.luminescens fused with the promoters of inducible genes: recA, colD, alkA, soxS, and katG.The genotoxicity o
Estimation of Organic Carbon in Anthropogenic Soil by VIS-NIR Spectroscopy: Effect of Variable Selection
click here Visible and near-infrared reflectance (VIS-NIR) spectroscopy is widely applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC).Intense and diverse human activities increase the heterogeneity in the relationships between SOC and VIS-NIR spectra in anthropogenic soil.This fact results in poor performance of SOC estimation models.To improve model acc
