In the face of global change, the exploration of possible futures of marine social-ecological systems (MSES) becomes increasingly important.A variety of models aims at improving our understanding of ecosystem dynamics and complexities by assessing how systems react to internal and external drivers of change.However, these models are often built fro
Boosting and Comparing Performance of Machine Learning Classifiers with Meta-heuristic Techniques to Detect Code Smell
Background: Continuous modifications, suboptimal software design practices, and stringent project deadlines fr3345 contribute to the proliferation of code smells.Detecting and refactoring these code smells are pivotal to maintaining complex and essential software systems.Neglecting them may lead to future software defects, rendering systems challen
Feasibility of postoperative spine stereotactic body radiation therapy in proximity of carbon and titanium hybrid implants using a robotic radiotherapy device
Abstract Background and purpose To assess the feasibility of postoperative stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for patients with hybrid implants consisting of carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone and titanium (CFP-T) using CyberKnife.Materials and methods All essential steps within a radiation therapy (RT) workflow were evaluated.Fir
A randomised trial comparing preoperative administration of single-dose kefazolin to kefazolin plus metronidazole as prophylactic antibiotics at caesarean section
Background.Caesarean section is a life-saving procedure which is associated with high rates of maternal and neonatal complications.It has been estimated that globally, 29.7 million births occur by caesarean section annually.The risk of postpartum infection is estimated to be five to ten times higher compared with normal vaginal delivery.Pregnancy-r
HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER EFFECTS ON FLOW PAST PARABOLIC STARTING MOTION OF ISOTHERMAL VERTICAL PLATE IN THE PRESENCE OF FIRST ORDER CHEMICAL REACTION
An exact solution of bonviv unsteady flow past a parabolic starting motion of the infinite isothermal vertical plate with uniform mass diffusion, in the presence of a homogeneous chemical reaction of the first order, has been studied.The plate temperature and the concentration level near the plate are raised uniformly.The dimensionless governing eq
