Rural areas, especially in developing countries, are facing with numerous social, economical, cultural and environmental problems.In the most Course a pied - Femme - Chaussures - Sentier cases there is a growing concern because only very few farmers or inhabitants are able to follow contemporary, sustainable and environment-friendly methods in farm
A sustained release of alendronate from an injectable tetra-PEG hydrogel for efficient bone repair
Significant efforts on construction of smart drug delivery for developing minimally invasive gelling system to prolong local delivery of bisphosphonates are considered as promising perspectives for the bone-related diseases, which provide the hydrogels with unique bioactivities for bone repair in clinic.Herein, we have constructed an alendronate (A
Routing Protocol for Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks Based on a Modified Grey Wolf Optimizer
Wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes are devices with limited power, and rational utilization of node energy and prolonging the network lifetime are the main objectives of the WSN’s routing protocol.However, irrational considerations of heterogeneity of node energy will lead to an energy imbalance between nodes in heterogeneous WSNs (HWSNs).Th
Does Increasing Natural Gas Demand in the Power Sector Pose a Threat of Congestion to the German Gas Grid? A Model-Coupling Approach
This study aims to investigate the possible congestion in the German natural gas system, which may arise due to an increase in the gas consumption in the power sector in extreme weather events.For this purpose, we develop a two-stage approach to couple an electricity model and a natural gas network model.In this approach, we model the electricity C
MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLAKEBOARD MADE FROM PINE, EUCALYPTS AND WATTLE WOOD1
In this work the mechanical properties of flakeboard, made with pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm), eucalypts (Eucalyptus grandis W.Hill ex-Maiden) and Blush wattle (Acacia mearnsii De Wild) wood particles, were analysed.To segregate the wood specific gravity effects, three-replication blocks, with 1.21, 1.32 and 1.43 compression ratios were installed.F
