Local failure of one or more components due to abnormal loading can induce the progressive collapse of a building structure.In this study, by the aid of available full-scale test results on double-span systems subjected EDTA to the middle column loss scenario, an extensive parametric study was performed to investigate the effects of different desig
The detection of orbital eccentricity for a binary black hole system via gravitational waves is a key signature to distinguish between the possible binary origins.The identification of eccentricity has been difficult so far due to the limited availability of eccentric gravitational waveforms over the full range of black hole masses and eccentriciti
Plants produce nectar in their flowers Range Hood Ducting as a reward for their pollinators and most of our crops depend on insect pollination, but little is known on the physiological control of nectar secretion.Jasmonates are well-known for their effects on senescence, the development and opening of flowers and on plant defences such as extraflor
E-commerce applications have significantly changed how people transact with each other.This includes digital advances that Vitamin drive illegal wildlife trade.In Indonesia, the Conservation Act of 1990 was enacted before the internet revolution and does not, therefore, adequately cover online illegal wildlife trade.In this study we identified wild
We have used homozygous albumin enhancer/promoter-driven urokinase-type Plates plasminogen activator/severe combined immunodeficient (uPA/SCID) mice as hosts for chimeric mice with humanized livers.However, uPA/SCID mice show four disadvantages: the human hepatocytes (h-heps) replacement index in mouse liver is decreased due to deletion of uPA tran
