Abstract This paper presents the numerical study of thermal performance factor Al 2 O 3 -Cu/water hybrid nanofluid in circular and non-circular ducts (square rectangular). Turbulent regime is studied with Reynolds number ranges from 10000 to 100000. The heat transfer flow behaviour are investigated, considering volume concentration between 0.1 2%. evaluated terms evaluation criteria (PEC). pres...

BACKGROUND There is a global increase in migrant workers. In Singapore, there are over 230,000 migrant domestic workers (MDWs). Female MDWs may experience high levels of stress and social isolation, which may negatively impact on their health and quality of life. There have also been documented cases of abuse and exploitation. However, there is a lack of empirical research with this population....

OBJECTIVE In the Netherlands, persons of Turkish, Moroccan and Surinamese descent form the largest groups of non-western immigrants. A high prevalence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia has been described in immigrant populations in the United States of America and the United Kingdom. We determined the prevalence of MCI and dementia in older community-dwelling adults from the large...

Abstract Cross-sectional imaging modalities including ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and computed tomography (CT) play a critical role in the diagnosis of diseases biliary tract gallbladder. Biliary for evaluation obstructive jaundice seeks to diagnose level obstruction its cause. The identification dilated bile ducts necessitates strictures or filling defects, which is best ...

Introduction: Dicrocoeliasis is a common disease of bile ducts and gallbladder of domestic and wild ruminants. This disease is caused by different species of dicrocoelium including Dicrocoelium dendriticum. The aim of this study was to identify pathological damages and molecular features associated with this parasite in ruminants. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 180 fresh...

Background: Fasciolosis is a crucial helminthes disease caused by two trematodes of the genus Fasciola: Fasciola hepatica (temperate liver fluke) and gigantica (tropical fluke). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on cattle sheep in slaughterhouse to detect animals infected with Fasciolosis. Liver samples were collected from transferred laboratory for histopathological immunohistoche...

A triangular matrix is a special kind of square matrix. A square matrix is called lower triangular if all the entries above the main diagonal are zero. Conversely a square matrix is called upper triangular if all the entries below the main diagonal are zero. [6] For a square matrix M , M−1 is the inverse matrix where M ×M−1 = I and I denotes the n× n identity matrix. We say that the problem siz...
