background glucose is an essential element in the supply of body’s energy. in diseases such as diabetes, glucose increase is associated with disturbance in metabolism. cortisol is an important hormone in the regulation of glucose metabolism, and human serum albumin (hsa) is one of the most important glucose and cortisol transmitters in blood. interaction between albumin and these ligands could ...

in this study, an artificial neural network was developed in order to analyze flexible pavement structure anddetermine its critical responses under the influence of standard axle loading. in doing so, more than 10000four-layered flexible pavement sections composed of asphalt concrete layer, base layer, subbase layer, andsubgrade soil were analyzed under the impact of standard axle loading. pave...

The aim of the Special Issue (SI) was to publish original and high-quality research papers that deal with model developments based on mathematical, numerical, experimental models associated flexible floating or submerged structure applications in discipline marine engineering [...]

Nature-based solutions (NBS) represent a new field of research and engineering applications, becoming increasingly popular in the coastal field. Salt marsh restoration, an example NBS, is particularly appealing due to variety benefits they can provide, especially their capacity induce sediment accretion, potentially keeping pace with sea-level rise. This study investigates applicability flexibl...

This investigation discusses the findings on analysis results of a pavement structure constructed on a relatively expansive material consisting mainly of brown clayey silt in Tebessa, Algeria. Cores were brought to the laboratory from a piece of roadwork. Remolded samples were taken from subgrade of a deteriorated road. The soils were generally found to be of medium plasticity and of a medium t...

in the current turbulent environment, sustainable organizational success cannot be achieved without considering organizational learning. due to the global pressures, higher education institutions including agriculture colleges should turn to learning organizations to face the challenges ahead. hence, the purpose of this descriptive correlational study is to investigate organizational learning a...
