There are numerous indicators that Hispanics face a disproportionate risk of exposure to environmental hazards. Ambient air pollution, worker exposure to chemicals, indoor air pollution, and drinking water quality are among the top four threats to human health and are all areas in which indicators point to elevated risk for Hispanic populations. These data, juxtaposed with data on the health st...

Hardware and software architecture of a novel spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS) based on smartphones using Variable Speed Control Moment Gyroscope (VSCMG) as actuator is proposed here. A spacecraft ground simulator testbed for Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) attitude estimation and control with VSCMG is also described. The sensor breakouts with independent micro-controller ...

Abstract Optimum perforation location selection is an important study to improve well production and hence in the reservoir development process, especially for unconventional high-pressure formations such as under study. Reservoir geomechanics one of key factors find optimal location. This aims detect optimum by investigating changes geomechanical properties wellbore stress studying difference ...

In the spring of 2020, a global pandemic caused an immediate transition to online, synchronous learning platforms in much world. discussion-based classrooms, where students construct from material and their interactions with each other, shift posed new challenges educators students. This mixed methods action research case study focused on successes teaching university class about sensitive issu...

A wind-driven model is a new framework to observational properties of transients that are powered by continuous outflow from central system. While it has been applied Fast Blue Optical Transients (FBOTs), the applicability limited post-peak behaviours due steady-state assumptions; non-steady-state physics, e.g., expanding outflow, important initial rising phase. In this paper, we construct time...

Background: Acne is a common skin disorder that affects both adolescents and adults categorized as an inflammatory dermatosis. Persistent adult acne prevalent in more than 80% of cases. Chemical peels are widely used therapy due to their various benefits, including exfoliation, lesion reduction, complexion radiance improvement, scar repair. The procedure, consisting 2 8 sessions, ideal for wome...

Abstract The current data acquisition rate of astronomical transient surveys and the promise for significantly higher rates in next decade necessitate development novel approaches to analyze sets promptly detect objects interest. Deeper, Wider, Faster (DWF) program is a survey focused on identification fast-evolving transients, such as fast radio bursts, gamma-ray supernova shock breakouts. It ...

Abstract Understanding the stress state before and after an earthquake is essential to study how on faults evolves during seismic cycle. This integrates wellbore failure analysis, laboratory experiments, edge dislocation model Chi‐Chi earthquake. The post‐earthquake in‐situ observed along boreholes of Taiwan Chelungpu‐fault Drilling Project (TCDP) heterogeneous due lithological variations. Alon...
