given the critical role played by urban green spaces and the emergence of remote sensing as avaluable natural resource management tool, this study sought to identify trends in green spaces within thecontext of south africa’s transition period (1990 - 2000). using the city of port elizabeth as a case study, threesets of landsat - 5 thematic mapper images (1990, 1995 and 2000) were geo-processed,...

this study investigated single-step extraction of heavy metals from contaminated sedimentscollected in the port of cádiz. experimental tests of washing with an aqueous solution of a chelating agent wereperformed at selected solid/liquid (s/l) ratios. two chelating agents were chosen: 0.3 m edta(ph 3.8 and 8)and sodium citrate (1 m). the objective of the tests was to investigate extractive decon...

This paper introduces a mixed integer programming model to find the optimum development plan for port Anzali. The model minimizes total system costs taking into account both port infrastructure costs and shipping costs. Due to the multipurpose function of the port, the model consists of 1020 decision variables and 2490 constraints. Results of the model determine the optimum number of berths tha...

This paper presents a new approach for hinterland modelling based on the results of port choice modelling. The paper follows the idea that the shippers’ port choice is a trade-off between various objective and subjective factors. The presented model tackles the problem by applying the AHP method in order to obtain ports’ preference rates based on subjective factors, and combine them with object...

BACKGROUND Recently, single-port video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has been proposed as an alternative to the conventional three-port VATS for primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP). The aim of this study is to evaluate the early outcomes of the single-port VATS for PSP. METHODS VATS was performed for PSP in 52 patients from March 2012 to March 2013. We reviewed the medical records of th...
