In a programming project, it is easy to lose track of which files need to be reprocessed or recompiled after a change is made in some part of the source. Make provides a simple mechanism for maintaining up-to-date versions of programs that result from many operations on a number of files. It is possible to tell Make the sequence of commands that create certain files, and the list of files that ...

The nitrite ® nitro isomerization in nitritopentaamine cobalt (III) halides has been known. In this paper, the effect of the size of the counter ions (noncoordinated groups) on the rate of isomerization in nitritopentaamine cobalt (III) halides, is reported. The rate of isomerization is decreased by increasing the size of the counter ions. This decrease is explained on the...

Scaled experimentation is an important experimental approach but known to be limited by scale effects, which have the undesirable effect of changing behaviour a system with scale. Such behavioural changes can on occasions so marked as make scaled experiment almost worthless. Until very recently, there has been no universal solution this problem most experiments founded dimensional analysis and ...

In recent years, NFTs have burst onto the global scene, quickly going from an internet meme to a multi-billion dollar digital industry. These assets everyone talking, but nobody seems know what they are or whether you actually own anything when buy one. This article uses extensive philosophical, legal, copyright, and empirical research explore is being purchased with NFT. With everything morale...

Linking China’s interest in the maritime waters arises from the geo-strategic importance of Sea Lines of Communications (SLOCs) vital to the oil supply of the country. China is building strategic relationships and developing a naval capability to establish a forward presence along the SLOCs that connect China to the Middle East and to Africa. The entire stretch includes South China Sea, Indian ...

This paper gives a critical review of current problems related to quantitative health risk assessment of exposure to asbestos, and particularly to chrysotile, the only type of asbestos still available on the market. The paper reviews types, sources, uses and the main recognized health effects of asbestos, paying particular attention to the health-related properties of fibres and the role of the...

The structure and stability of ca. 100 nonplanar constitutional isomers of the coronene molecule of general formula C(24)H(12) have been estimated by semiempirical and by ab initio calculations. The isomers studied are unbranched cyclic catacondensed structures and fall into two classes, viz., the belt (B) and the Moebius (M) type. The calculations have shown some of the M-isomers to be more st...

In [1], we presented an example to show that using occupancy modelling to adjust for imperfect detection can make the bias worse than not making any adjustment for imperfect detection. The intuition behind the example is that imperfect detection is only one of a number of problems that can introduce measurement error into the data and it is a mistake to focus exclusively on only one kind of mea...
