Because of the ongoing climate change, frequency extreme rainfall events at global scale is expected to increase, resulting in higher social and economic impacts. Thus, improving forecast accuracy risk communication a fundamental goal limit damages. Both Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) radar-based nowcasting systems still have open issues, mainly terms precipitation correct time/space locali...

The relationship between sport participation and BMI in children and adolescents is unclear, with some studies showing no association at all and others suggesting that sport is linked to lower BMI. Another possibility, however, is that this relationship is bidirectional, with sport leading to lower BMI but BMI also influencing sport participation. Here, we examine the direction of this associat...

A bisphenol A production plant possesses considerable potential risks in the top of the methanol separation column, as pressurized acetone, methanol, and water are processed at an elevated temperature, especially in the event of an abnormal pressure increase due to a sudden power outage. This study assesses the potential risks in the methanol separation column through hazard and operability ass...

Point mutations and small insertions or deletions in the human alpha-globin genes may produce alpha-chain structural variants and alpha-thalassemia. Mutations can be detected either by direct DNA sequencing or by screening methods, which select the mutated exon for sequencing. Although small (about 1 kb, 3 exons and 2 introns), the alpha-globin genes are duplicate (alpha2 and alpha1) and highly...

Software engineering is a mature industry of human activity focused on the creation, deployment, marketing and maintenance software. The fundamental concepts are life cycle model; three main components phases - products, processes resources; methodologies for creating, deployment maintaining foun- dation technological advances that lead to new high performance products. As functionality product...
