Authors: Henry E. Cardenas, Huayuan Zhong ABSTRACT Electrokinetic pozzolanic nanoparticle treatments have been reported in the literature to achieve rapid porosity reductions and deeply penetrating strength enhancement of cement and concrete. The high electric fields required to achieve these results … Continue reading
Authors: Wiesław Grzesikiewicz, Artur Zbiciak ABSTRACT Planar motion of a non-deformable wheel under the action of non-ideal unilateral constraints is considered. The mathematical description of this phenomenon has a form of a non-smooth initial value problem. The non-smoothness of this … Continue reading
Authors: D. A. Lanshakov, E. V. Sukhareva ABSTRACT Neurotrophic factors, as well as their receptors are key players in the formation and development of the central nervous system. Like the sculptor’s incisor, they form the neural networks and circuits of … Continue reading
Authors: Shiming Wei, Zesheng Zhang, Yao Wang ABSTRACT To achieve the monitor of rock burst in coal mine with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing, the coupling mechanism between FBG and shock waves was theoretically analyzed. Based on Housner’s random shock … Continue reading
Authors: Federico Hahn, Gaudencio Grande ABSTRACT Methane is released from waste disposal areas as a result from anaerobic decay of food. Methane causes more greenhouse effects than carbon dioxide so a methane monitoring system is required to warn its release … Continue reading

Authors: Omnia G. El Barbary, El Sayed Atlam ABSTRACT Text Rank is a popular tool for obtaining words or phrases that are important for many Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. This paper presents a practical approach for Text Rank domain … Continue reading
Authors: Giancarlo T. Tomezzoli, Rainhardt S. Stein ABSTRACT This article follows a previous publication dedicated to Venetic personal anthroponyms. In the present article, we investigate Illyrian personal anthroponyms from the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, a continuously updated Latin inscription catalogue covering … Continue reading
18Authors: Dan Tenney, Nasir Jamil Sheikh ABSTRACT Long-term strategic planning is not typical among small-to-medium nonprofit organizations (SMNOs), and their focus tends to be towards tactical mission priorities. This prioritization is due to limited resources and capabilities, although a strategic … Continue reading
Authors: M. S. Ismail, Fakhirah Alotaibi ABSTRACT In this paper, we are going to derive four numerical methods for solving the Modified Kortweg-de Vries (MKdV) equation using fourth Pade approximation for space direction and Crank Nicolson in the time direction. … Continue reading
