The environment, and especially freshwater, constitutes a reactor where the evolution and the rise of new resistances occur. In water bodies such as waste water effluents, lakes, and rivers or streams, bacteria from different sources, e.g., urban, industrial, and agricultural waste, probably selected by intensive antibiotic usage, are collected and mixed with environmental species. This may cau...

Due to a growing world population and increasing welfare, energy demand worldwide is increasing. To meet the increasing energy demand in a sustainable way, new technologies are needed. The Plant-Microbial Fuel Cell (P-MFC) is a technology that could produce sustainable bio-electricity and help meeting the increasing energy demand. Power output of the P-MFC, however, needs to be increased to mak...

The assessment of the temperature factor influence on pressure pipeline hydraulic operation mode is very relevant, since it considered primarily as an opportunity to reduce cost mechanical water transportation. Smaller pipe resistances save electrical energy consumption, and has additional positive effect saving process. purpose research identify nature changes in friction value relation condit...

Recently, in Refs. [1] and [2], calculation of effective resistances on distance-regular networks was investigated, where in the first paper, the calculation was based on stratification and Stieltjes function associated with the network, whereas in the latter one a recursive formula for effective resistances was given based on the Christoffel-Darboux identity. In this paper, evaluation of effec...

We introduce the concept of matrix-valued effective resistance for undirected matrix-weighted graphs. These effective resistances are defined to be the square blocks that appear in the diagonal of the inverse of the matrix-weighted Dirichlet graph Laplacian matrix. However, they can also be obtained from a “generalized” electrical network that is constructed from the graph, and for which curren...
