We develop a nonlinear mathematical model with the effect of awareness programs on the Mouthwash binge drinking.Due to the fact that awareness programs are capable of inducing behavioral changes in nondrinkers, we introduce a separate class by avoiding contacts with the heavy drinkers.Furthermore we assume that cumulative density of awareness progr
In this study, we systematically evaluated the antibiofouling behavior of quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) blended polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) combined with flow cytometry (FCM) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) measurements.QCM-D tests showed that the i
Estimating the direction in which the ridges and valleys of the fingerprint pattern are aligned often serves as a pivotal first step in fingerprint recognition systems.The ridge orientation map is a fundamental reference for subsequent processing stages, such as image enhancement, feature extraction, and matching.Therefore, its accuracy is essentia
One of the effective methods for ensuring seismic resistance of buildings and structures located in seismic-prone areas is the use of an active seismic protection system.The most common at present is an active seismic protection system based on seismic isolation.Seismic isolations in the form of rubber-metal (RMB) and pendulum sliding bearings (PSB
Background: The reverse radial forearm perforator flaps are useful in softtissue reconstruction of the hand and forearm.Certain modifications in the flap and usage of hyperbaric oxygen therapy as an adjunct in reconstruction could aid in better outcome of the surgical procedure.The conventional reverse radial artery forearm flap incorporates the ra
