The few previous studies examining the influence of the neighborhood context on health and health behavior among young gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (YMSM) have predominantly focused on residential neighborhoods. No studies have examined multiple neighborhood contexts among YMSM or the relationships between sociodemographic characteristics, psychosocial factors, social supp...

A renormalization group transformation suitable for spin glass models and, more generally, for disordered models, is presented. The procedure is non-standard in both the nature of the additional interactions and the coarse graining transformation, that is performed on the overlap probability measure. Universality classes are thus naturally defined on a large set of models, going from Z 2 and Ga...

the complex formation reaction between iodine with tetrabutylammonium halides (tbax) has been studied spectrophotometrically in chloroform solution at 25ºc. various aspects of the spectra of iodine in the presence of various concentration of different tetrabutylammonium halides have been discussed in terms of electronic specifications of iodine and halides. in the case of tetrabutylammonium iod...

fleas are the most common and important external parasites worldwide and also serves as vectors of various pathogens for humans and animals. the study aimed to determine the prevalence of pulex irritants in sheep herds and residential areas of villages in kurdsitan province, iran. a total of 2,900 sheep were randomly selected from 48 flocks and 630 residential areas of 18 villages from november...

We present a complete system to semantically decompose and reconstruct 3D models from point clouds. Different than previous urban modeling approaches, our system is designed for residential scenes, which consist of mainly low-rise buildings that do not exhibit the regularity and repetitiveness as high-rise buildings in downtown areas. Our system first automatically labels the input into distinc...

The article reflects the current state of housing construction in Republic Karakalpakstan and city Nukus a hot climate. impact external environment low-rise multistory residential buildings, their description on architecture buildings are considered. Targets ways to improve projects have been identified.

Abstract Activity spaces are used to capture patterns in urban mobility and portray the spatial distribution of day-to-day activities. The literature exploring variation individual activity identifies strong associations between several space characteristics built environment residential location. This cross-sectional study adds this evidence by examining whether these persist after adjusting f...
