The goals of the End TB strategy, which aims to achieve a 90% reduction in tuberculosis (TB) incidence and a 95% reduction in TB mortality by 2035, will not be achieved without new tools to fight TB. These include improved point of care (POC) diagnostic tests that are meant to be delivered at the most decentralised levels of care where the patients make the initial contact with the health syste...

‎In this paper‎, ‎first we study the weak and strong convergence of solutions to the‎ ‎following first order nonhomogeneous gradient system‎ ‎$$begin{cases}-x'(t)=nablaphi(x(t))+f(t), text{a.e. on} (0,infty)\‎‎x(0)=x_0in Hend{cases}$$ to a critical point of $phi$‎, ‎where‎ ‎$phi$ is a $C^1$ quasi-convex function on a real Hilbert space‎ ‎$H$ with ${rm Argmin}phineqvarnothing$ and $fin L^1(0...

The present article serves the purpose of pursuing Geometrization of heat flow on volumetrically isothermal manifold by means of RF approach. In this article, we have analyzed the evolution of heat equation in a 3-dimensional smooth isothermal manifold bearing characteristics of Riemannian manifold and fundamental properties of thermodynamic systems. By making use of the notions of various curva...

Generally, the evaluation and assessment of the critical condition of rill formation are useful for a better understanding of soil erosion processes. The inherence characteristics of soils, which have much dynamic variations on the hillslopes and are affected by rill formation, are the soil critical shear stress and soil erodibility factors. This study aims to assess experimental rill incision ...

The magnetic phase diagram in the H-T coordinates has been determined for ?-Fe68V32 from ZFC/FC magnetization measurements. re-entrant character of magnetism, going paramagnetic through ferromagnetic to spin-glass (SG) states, evidenced. SG is magnetically heterogeneous, because two sub phases can be identified i.e. with strong (SG-SI) and weak (SG-WI) irreversibility. Tirr Tcros were quantitat...

An estimated 1.5 billion microbial infections occur globally each year and result in ∼4.6 million deaths. A technology gap associated with commercially available diagnostic tests in remote and underdeveloped regions prevents timely pathogen identification for effective antibiotic chemotherapies for infected patients. The result is a trial-and-error approach that is limited in effectiveness, inc...

Motivated by the fact that QCD critical point (CP) belongs to the same universality class as the liquid-gas transition, the dynamical density fluctuations around the CP is analyzed using relativistic fluid dynamics for a viscous fluid. It is shown that relativistic effects on the dynamical structure factor of the density fluctuation appears only in the width of the sound and thermal modes throu...

In this paper we prove that there are no domains E ⊂ R2, other than the ellipses, such that the Lebesgue measure of the intersection of E and its homothetic image εE translated to a boundary point q ∈ ∂E is independent of q, provided that E is ”centered” at a certain interior point O ∈ E (the center of homothety). Similar problems arise in various fields of mathematics, including, for example, ...

We demonstrate that the mechanically defined “isothermal” compressibility behaves as a thermodynamic-like response function for suspensions of active Brownian particles. The computed from pressure—a combination collision and unique swim pressures—is capable predicting critical point motility induced phase separation, expected mechanical stability criterion. relate this definition to static stru...

We apply a simple dynamical density functional theory, the phase-field crystal (PFC) model of overdamped conservative dynamics, to address polymorphism, crystal nucleation, and crystal growth in the diffusion-controlled limit. We refine the phase diagram for 3D, and determine the line free energy in 2D and the height of the nucleation barrier in 2D and 3D for homogeneous and heterogeneous nucle...
