[1] Six different geophysical investigations, (1) ground-penetrating radar, (2) DC resistivity sounding, (3) seismic refraction, (4) very low frequency (VHF) electromagnetic, (5) helicopter borne electromagnetic (HEM), and (6) transient electromagnetic (TEM) techniques, were employed to obtain information on the ice body properties of pingos near Fairbanks, Alaska. The surface nuclear magnetic ...

background and objectives: electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields can act as stress factors with different effects on biological systems. due to the nutritional and medicinal values, and the increasing electromagnetic radiations, the present study was performed to investigate the effects of the electromagnetic field on the developmental stages and cytotoxic properties of okra. methods: b...

BACKGROUND Myocardial hemorrhage is a frequent complication following reperfusion in acute myocardial infarction and is predictive of adverse outcomes. However, it remains unsettled whether hemorrhage is simply a marker of a severe initial ischemic insult or directly contributes to downstream myocardial damage. Our objective was to evaluate the contribution of hemorrhage towards inflammation, m...

The concept of a "trapped rainbow" has generated considerable interest for optical data storage and processing. It aims to trap different frequency components of the wave packet at different positions permanently. However, all the previously proposed structures cannot truly achieve this effect, due to the difficulties in suppressing the reflection caused by strong intermodal coupling and distin...

Power systems are becoming more and complicated. Traditional simulation tools such as transient stability programs electromagnetic transients (EMT) unable to meet the accuracy or efficiency requirements. This paper proposes a shifted frequency-based EMT (SFEMT) in symmetrical component-domain (abbreviated SCSFEMT simulation) for three-phase transmission system. The sequence-decoupled modeling p...

Cyber-physical additive manufacturing systems consists of tight integration of cyber and physical domains. This union, however, induces new cross-domain vulnerabilities that pose unique security challenges. One of these challenges is preventing confidentiality breach, caused by physical-to-cyber domain attacks. In this form of attack, attackers utilize the sidechannels (such as acoustics, power...

Recent studies have determined that many types of mushroom (eg Hericium spp), may have important physiological functions in humans, including antioxidant activities, the regulation of blood lipid levels and reduction of blood glucose levels. In this study, a methanol extract of the fruiting bodies of Hericium erinaceus was adsorbed on silica gel columns and eluted using polarity gradients of ch...

Hydroxide (OH(-))-exchange membranes (HEMs) are important polymer electrolytes enabling the use of affordable and earth-abundant electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy-conversion devices such as HEM fuel cells, HEM electrolyzers, and HEM solar hydrogen generators. Many HEM cations exist, featuring desirable properties, but new cations are still needed to increase chemical stability at elev...

Electromagnetic interference can be easily coupled into metallic shielding enclosure that is penetrated with a conducting wire, which having a harmful effect on electrical and electronic devices. To sudy the characteristics, Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) is applied in both frequency and time domain for modeling the coupling of an incident electromagnetic pulse (EMP) with a conducting wir...
