Isolation of viruses was performed from various species of mosquitoes collected in Mogi area in Nagasaki City during the summer of 1980 and 1981, by inoculation to Aedes albopictus clone C6/36 cells. In 1980, five strains of Japanese encephalitis (JE) and one strain of Getah (GET) viruses were isolated from five pools of female Culex tritaeniorhynchus. One of the pools yielded both JE and GET v...

Based on a previous experimental study that we conducted granite joint replicas including thirty direct shear tests, this article proposes to integrate the roughness in Mohr-Coulomb behaviour model (MC). The integrates into constitutive stress-displacement relationships describing mechanical of rock joint. strength is assessed by MC criterion takes account apparent cohesion. This integrating co...

Global Positioning System geodesy was used to measure surface deformation on Soufriere Hills volcano, Montserrat from October 6, 1995 to July 1, 1997 during initial dome growth and gravitational collapse. Our data from this period show non-axially symmetric horizontal displacements, and decreasing subsidence as a function of radial distance from the former topographic high of the volcanic edifi...

We develop a minimal theory for the recently observed metal-insulator transition (MIT) in two-dimensional (2D) moir\'e multilayer metal dichalcogenides (mTMD) using Coulomb disorder environment as underlying mechanism. In particular, carrier scattering by random charged impurities leads to an effective 2D MIT approximately controlled Ioffe-Regel criterion, which is qualitatively consistent with...

Two centrifuge tests on a quay wall and cantilevered retaining with saturated granular backfills were simulated using Finn-Byrne model. Capabilities of model in liquefaction analysis the evaluated. The subjected to horizontal acceleration time history vertical history. constitutive is linear elastic – perfectly plastic Hooke’s elasticity Mohr-coulomb criterion for yield surface assumed backfill...

We theoretically consider the problem of doping induced insulator to metal transition in bulk semiconductors by obtaining density as a function compensation, assuming that is an Anderson localization controlled Ioffe-Regel-Mott (IRM) criterion. calculate mean free path, on highly doped metallic side, arising from carrier scattering ionized dopants, which we model quenched random charged impurit...

A charged system search algorithm (CSS) is applied to the optimal cost design of water distribution networks. This algorithm is inspired by the Coulomb and Gauss’s laws of electrostatics in physics. The CSS utilizes a number of charged particles which influence each other based on their fitness values and their separation distances considering the governing law of Coulomb. The well-known benchm...
