We have studied thermal composition fluctuations of a ternary symmetric homopolymer/diblock copolymer system of PEE/PDMS/PEE-PDMS @PEE and PDMS being poly~ethyl ethylene! and poly~dimethyl siloxane!, respectively# in its disordered state with small angle neutron scattering for concentration F of diblocks up to 15%. The phase diagram shows three characteristic regimes; ~1! below the Lifshitz con...

Scalar (density) and tensor (gravity-wave) perturbations provide the basis for the fundamental observable consequences of inflation, including CBR anisotropy and the fluctuations that seed structure formation. In general, these perturbations are nearly scale invariant (Harrison-Zel’dovich spectrum), though slight deviation from scale invariance (“tilt”) can have significant consequences for bot...

While the Earth system is in overshoot mode with an imminent threat to our social, ecological, and economic systems, cultural evolutionary theory may hold key more successfully addressing many of sustainability challenges. With aim illuminating potential studying evolution a sustainable bioeconomy through lens, this article outlines contours novel research avenue form five propositions. It cont...

Single-pole utility structures are generally loaded as cantilever beam-columns. Their load capacity varies with geometry, structural mate­ rial, manufacturing process, and support conditions. These parameters, often characterized with varying degrees of uncertainty, are used with mechanics-based as well as empirical-based models (that also introduce some uncertainty) to obtain load capacity or ...

Many tourism agglomerations are situated near natural resources, which implies a need to balance business growth with environmental preservation. Our analysis of the location decisions 295 luxury beach hotels in Spain between 1960 and 2015 reveals two main findings. First, we confirm positive relationship existence demand-related urbanization services around resources attractiveness new entrant...

Economics and engineering have much in common since both are concerned with making decisions to act, based on evidence from many sources including science. An analysis of financial trading an engineering-systems perspective leads a theory obligations as means capturing natural, social human capital. The treatment is analogy between gravitational electromagnetic fields forces interactions. ‘obli...

Flood is one of the disasters that must be faced in lowlands with poor drainage system, when there high rainfall. Rainfall upstream River can affect water level downstream River. Calculation river discharge and forecast from time arrival flood Help prepare population to face disaster. That method used this lesson a quantitative analysis rainfall planned repatriate. Then, concentration (TC) befo...

Hujan dengan intensitas yang tinggi, menyebabkan terjadinya luapan di sungai Sesayap merupakan salah satu penyebab banjir. Terjadinya Sungai disebabkan banyak faktor juga, satunya kegagalan penampang ada tidak bisa menampung air dikarenakan tampungan terkurangi lalu banjir, dan juga berdasarkan rencana RTRW Malinau Kota, kawasan tersebut akan dikembangkan menjadi daerah pusat perkantoran pengem...
