in this research, hydraulic and sorption behavior of geosynthetic clay liners (gcls) withordinary and modified clay exposed to crude oil were studied. both modified and ordinary bentonites wereinvestigated to evaluate crude oil adsorption efficiency on the liners. because soil permeability exposed tocrude oil is a major parameter in measuring the contaminants migration in soils, the permeabilit...

The authors investigated the association between duration of obesity (ordinary obesity as body mass index (BMI) (kg/m2) > or = 25.0 and extreme obesity as BMI > or = 27.8) and the risk of diabetes mellitus. Male employees of a railway company, aged 30 years or older, observed for 10 years or more, free from serious disease conditions, with initial BMI <25.0, aged 30 years or more at the time di...

In this chapter, we describe general methods used to create dynamic computational models of kinase signalling cascades, and tools to support this activity. We focus on the ordinary differential equation models, and show how these fit into a general framework of qualitative and quantitative (stochastic and continuous) models. The modelling we describe is part of the activity of BioModel engineer...

Will reading habit influence your life? Many say yes. Reading ordinary differential equations and linear algebra a systems approach is a good habit; you can develop this habit to be such interesting way. Yeah, reading habit will not only make you have any favourite activity. It will be one of guidance of your life. When reading has become a habit, you will not make it as disturbing activities o...

The activity of the African Union (AU) at time COVID-19 is not as notable in past years. However, it important to point out that main organs continental organization—notably, Assembly and Executive Council—were able meet ordinary extraordinary sessions. In this regard, held its thirty-third Ordinary Session Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, on 9–10 February, Council thirty-sixth 6–7 February. This year, a...

In this paper we extend the properties of ordinary points of curves [10] to ordinary closed points of one-dimensional affine reduced schemes and then to ordinary subvarieties of codimension one.

where z is a new variable. This exemplifies the procedure for an arbitrary ODE. The usual choice for the new variables is to let them be just derivatives of each other (and of the original variable). Occasionally, it is useful to incorporate into their definition some other factors in the equation, or some powers of the independent variable, for the purpose of mitigating singular behavior that ...

More specifically, we use Theorem B.1 from (Sheffet, 2015) that states that given a matrix A whose all of its singular values at greater than T ( , δ) where T ( , δ) = 2B (√ 2r ln(4/δ) + 2 ln(4/δ) ) , publishing RA is ( , δ)differentially private for a r-row matrix R whose entries sampled are i.i.d normal Gaussians. Since we have that all of the singular values of A′ are greater than w (as spec...

An astonishing fact was established by Lee A. Rubel in 81: there exists a fixed non-trivial fourthorder polynomial differential algebraic equation (DAE) such that for any positive continuous function φ on the reals, and for any positive continuous function (t), it has a C∞ solution with |y(t) − φ(t)| < (t) for all t. Lee A. Rubel provided an explicit example of such a polynomial DAE. Other exam...
