The aim of this paper is to study the popular models used for the simulation of major elements of a water quality system. The present study compares results of the CE-QUAL-W2 model with the WASP5 and MIKE11 models to assess the water quality of Pasikhan River. The contaminant loadings of Nitrate and Phosphate are utilized in the CE-QUAL-W2, WASP5 and MIKE11 simulations. This study is the first ...

The addition of Ta205, NbzOs, and Hf02 enhanced the transformability of Y203-stabilized tetragonal Zr02 polycrystal (Y-TZP), which was indicated by an increase in phase transformation temperatures and fracture toughness of Y-TZI! Comparison of the alloying effects of these oxides on the transformability and crystal structure of Y-TZP suggested that an alloying oxide which increases the c/u axia...

In contrast-enhanced DBT (CE-DBT), breast lesion vascularity is characterized by administrating an iodinated vascular contrast agent. In this work, a combined temporal and dual-energy (DE) subtraction CE-DBT technique was performed in 4 women with mammographic findings that warranted biopsy. Lesion enhancement characteristics and morphology obtained with both CE-DBT techniques are correlated to...

Résumé : Dans les folksonomies, les utilisateurs partagent des ressources (films, livres, sites web, etc.) en les annotant avec des tags librement choisis. Dans ce papier, nous considérons une nouvelle dimension dans une folksonomie qui contient des des informations supplémentaires sur les utilisateurs. Nous définissons un degré de proximité entre deux utilisateurs comme le nombre d’information...

Résumé : Ce papier présente la version adaptative d’un algorithme d’extraction d’épisodes temporels développé précédemment. Les trois paramètres de réglages de l’algorithme ne sont plus fixes. Ils sont modifiés en ligne en fonction de la variance estimée du signal que l’on veut décomposer en épisodes temporels. La version adaptative de l’algorithme a été utilisée pour reconnaître automatiquemen...

Information, influences et propagation via les médias en ligne Communication de recherche RESUME L'émergence des nouveaux moyens de communication tels que les blogs, les journaux en ligne ou les réseaux sociaux nous permettent d'aller plus loin dans la compréhension des comportements humains. En effet, ces espaces d'échange publiques sont aujourd'hui fermement ancrés dans nos sociétés modernes ...

This study aimed to evaluate the potential of commercial enzymes cellulase (CE), xylanase (XY) and the combination of CE + XY to improve rumen fermentation of Guinea grass ecotype ‘A’ (Panicum maximum). The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design. In vitro incubations were performed with four doses of individual enzymes and their combinations (1:1 from each enzyme) as 5...

The research presented in this thesis involves the application of chiral cationic and anionic surfactants for simultaneous enantioseparation of structurally similar compounds in capillary electrophoresis (CE) and CE coupled to mass spectrometry (CE-MS). The first chapter briefly introduces the fundamentals of CE and CE-MS, emphasizing the micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) and MEKC-M...

Objective: Measurement of blood-brain permeability dysfunction in active and chronic MS lesions with T1-weighted dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to show variation in inflammatory activity Background: blood-brain-barrier perfusion characterization impaired in MS as some studies have shown recently buta comparison between perfusion parameters in contrast-enhanced and non-enhanced lesions not have ...
