The main goal of this study was to develop an efficient, green approach for the valorization Tetradesmus obliquus biomass, with zero waste. This microalga selected because it is widespread, resistant, easy cultivation, and fast-growing. In first step, supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO2) extraction followed by rapid gas decompression used biomass. following step apply ultrasound-assisted (UA), ...

Urban expansion increases fragmentation of the landscape. In effect, fragmentation decreases connectivity, causes green space loss and impacts upon the ecology and function of green space. Restoration of the functionality of green space often requires restoring the ecological connectivity of this green space within the city matrix. However, identifying ecological corridors that integrate differ...

in today’s world the concept of “city” without effective landscape is out of imagination. being focal points for human life and activities, cities have to consider the structure and functions which are influenced by natural systems. in this regard, landscapes are inevitable parts of cities with an essential metabolic role. unlike most countries which don’t have to deal with water shortage as a ...

Cities are expanding green infrastructure to enhance resilience and ecosystem services. Although green infrastructure is promoted for its multifunctionality, projects are typically sited based on a particular benefit, such as stormwater abatement, rather than a suite of socio-economic and environmental benefits. This stems in part from the lack of stakeholder-informed, city-scale approaches to ...

The background field approach to multi-loop calculations in gauge field theories is presented. A relation between the gauge-invariant effective action computed using this method and the effective action of the conventional functional approach is derived. Feynman rules are given and renormalization is discussed. It is shown that the renormalization programme can be carried out without any refere...

This talk presents details of the calculation of two-loop corrections to heavy baryon currents containing one heavy quark in leading order of the 1/mQ-expansion, i.e. in the limit of Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS). The calculations lead to the determination of the anomalous dimension of these currents. I also discuss problems with different γ5-schemes and their solution by the finite renormalizatio...

Success in higher education depends on students’ ability to meet the writing requirements of their chosen courses, and in many cases this involves adapting to the literacy practices of particular disciplines. While research into professional academic discourse suggests that it may reflect differences in disciplinary culture and epistemology, there has been relatively little investigation of dis...

We consider the celebrated Cucker-Smale model in finite dimension, modelling interacting collective dynamics and their possible evolution to consensus. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of time delays in the general model. By a Lyapunov functional approach, we provide convergence results to consensus for symmetric as well as nonsymmetric communication weights under some structu...

Fundamental changes in the market environment force insurance intermediaries to redefine their roles. This article focuses on the future functions of brokers, which are analyzed from a functional as well as a customer-oriented perspective. To cope with the limitations of current intermediation research, the customer-value approach is applied as an alternative framework. This approach suggests t...
