Total or partial condemnation of carcasses in the slaughter houses has always been a major concern for the poultry industry as it represents huge economical losses for companies. In the United States of America, losses due to cellulitis, an inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue of broilers (usually contaminated with Escherichia coli), exceed 35 million USD per year. Combined with other losses...

This paper describes the spatial and temporal distribution of Anopheles gambiae s.l. Giles in two Tanzanian villages based on data collected from a five-month intensive mosquito sampling programme and analysed using Taylor's power law. The degree of spatial aggregation of female A. gambiae in each village was similar to its corresponding temporal aggregation, indicating that in designing sampli...

A house-to-house survey was carried out in early 1983 among military dependents at an army residential complex in Kuching, Sarawak All houses including flats within the complex were numbered consecutively from one onwards With the use of a table of random numbers 200 residentiai units were seiected and the houses were visited by two nurses.

This research addresses the challenge of monitoring large-scale machine halls, particularly in context iron making processes. We propose an acoustic sound-based condition (ASCM) system to detect potential faults and damages machinery. The study focuses on selecting suitable audio features, integrating physical insights regarding fault, determining optimal window lengths for feature extraction. ...

Background: Iran is an earthquake-prone country, and a considerable rural population lives in earthquake-prone areas. With many worn-out areas, incompetent houses, and relatively underdeveloped rural areas, it is necessary to pay special attention to risk reduction and subsequent measures in these areas. Materials and Methods: Among the current methods, HAZUS is one of the most common methods ...

Mechanical industries use rotating mechanical equipment in their day to operations. The suffers from wear and tear, is usually discarded as scrap. But there a way recover some of this reuse it? This paper uses machine learning capture analyse the wearing damage bearings gears determine whether they can be redeemed. Finite element analysis conducted on worn-out spur pillow order facilitate featu...
