Since no operational mechanism defining how request or such has yet been established, painful lessons 2014–2016 West African Ebola crisis returned this topic agenda .

objective(s): first principles calculations were performed to study four multiple sclerosis drugs namely, ampyra, fingolimod, mitoxantrone and eliprodil in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (dft). computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for ampyra, fingolimod, mitoxantrone and eliprodil. materials and methods: al...

I develop an asset-pricing model in which financial assets are valued for their liquidity– the extent to which they are useful in facilitating exchange–as well as for being claims to streams of consumption goods. The implications for average asset returns, the equitypremium puzzle, and the risk-free rate puzzle, are explored both analytically and quantitatively in a version of the model that ne...

this study reports an experiment conducted to investigate the effectiveness of implementing mi-inspired instruction in an efl context. to this end, a group of ten intermediate female students took part in a quasi-experimental study. at the beginning of the experiment, multiple intelligences survey (armstrong, 1993) was administered to determine the participants’ mi profiles. the participants we...

[email protected] Key Words| Bond graphs; causality; system inversion; parameter estimation Abstract|Conventional bond graph theory is predicated on the notion that a bond has a single causal stroke: an effort imposed at one end implies a ow imposedat the other. This notion is implied by components having a known consti...
