In this article we use the case of post-conflict Nepal to advance political ecological analyses conservation violence, securitization, and militarization role environmental governance in state-making. During civil war 1996–2006, Maoist insurgents controlled most rural Nepal, including several national parks. insurgents' occupation parks supported their goal establishing a parallel state. Follow...

Electrophoresis in microfluidic devices is becoming a useful analytical platform for a variety of biological assays. In this report, we present a method that allows for an increased sensitivity of detection of fluorescent molecules in microfluidic electrophoresis devices. This capability is provided by the implementation of a particular buffer system that is designed to initially function in an...

We formulate a method for imposing continuous field boundary conditions on an MD simulation with little or no disturbance to its dynamics. Our approach combines the previously developed thermodynamic field estimator, which extracts macroscopic fields from particle data, with a novel procedure, optimal in the sense of least disturbance, for imposing prescribed continuum field boundary conditions...

In order to make the enterprise assessment system become more intelligent and efficient for the application and realization technology of advanced manufacturing technology, the enterprise alliance and its business reconfiguration model for Holonic Manufacturing System(HMS) are processed. The enterprise alliance with dynamic reconfiguration and Holon feature is established by constructing the in...

The explicit polarization (X-Pol) potential is an electronic-structure-based polarization force field, designed for molecular dynamics simulations and modeling of biopolymers. In this approach, molecular polarization and charge transfer effects are explicitly treated by a combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) scheme, and the wave function of the entire system is variation...

in the past 25 years, rising of the caspian sea level, part of a natural treat to the sea, has inundated and destroyed many buildings and arable lands and threatened many inhabitations in coastal areas. the main reason for these damages is that the law-setback has lost its efficiency and human activities have proceeded seaward. the goal of this study is to introduce a proper setback line for th...

The following presentation of a Mapping Project is giving an outline of measures, undertaken in order to support the Tanzanian RESOURCE PROTECTION AND BUFFERZONE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME which aims at the management of the conservation of biotopes and natural resources in seven reserve areas. The methodological approach included satellite data procurement, processing and analysis, flight campaign ...
