Embedded hypermedia documents (HDs) are becoming more common in aircraft cockpits, powerand industrial-plant control panels, and other user interfaces to complex systems. These hypermedia documents are often large and heavily cross referenced, yet they must support extremely e cient and intuitive user navigation. Designing such documents well is di cult. In this paper, we describe a computer-ba...

Some organic compounds gelate particular solvents by forming a network of anisotropic fibres. We show that Hansen solubility parameters can be used to predict the range of solvents that are likely to be gelled by any given gelator.

Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) processes remove sulfur atoms from hydrocarbons by chemical reduction to hydrogen sulfide using H2 with transition metals and their sulfides as catalysts. Mechanistic and structural insights, concerning reaction pathways and catalysts, respectively, are required to design more effective HDS catalysts, with higher rates at lower H2 pressures, so as to meet emerging req...

7000 series aluminum alloys are widely used in the automotive industries for structural lightweight components due to their exceptional high strength to weight ratio. however, this class of aluminum alloy is difficult to join by conventional fusion welding techniques so friction stir welding (fsw) widely is used for welding this alloys. the process has been demonstrated to be effective and is c...

Holographic data storage (HDS) is promising technology as novel with potentials of larger recording density and higher transfer rate. A computer-generated hologram (CGH) technique enables the optical configuration HDS to be in-line simple has therefore been applied HDS. In our previous papers, two approaches for increasing per a data-page number multiplexed holograms in medium have adopted impr...

Aim: To examine the mental health and functioning of female sex workers (FSW) in Chittagong, Bangladesh, a population that has commonly been neglected in mental health policy and research. Methods: We included 259 women in the study (M age: 23.2 years; range: 11–48). The comprehensive Composite International Diagnostic Interview was used to assess their 12-month prevalence rates of DSMIV mental...

BACKGROUND To estimate the prevalence of trachoma in the North Region of Cameroon in order to facilitate the planning of trachoma control activities in this region, a survey was carried out in 2011 and 2012 in 15 health districts (HDs). METHODOLOGY A cross-sectional, two-stage cluster random sampling survey was carried out. The survey focused on two target populations: children aged 1 to 9 ye...

OBJECTIVE The aims of the study were i) to categorize female sex workers (FSW) according to socio-anthropologic criteria in Bangui; ii) to examine the association between a selection of demographic and risk variables with the different categories of female sex work as outcome, and iii) to investigate factors associated with HIV status. METHODS A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conduc...
