Recently, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) research has experienced a strong impetus during the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.However, a few technical issues related to surveillance strategies, such as standardized procedures ranging from sampling to testing protocols, need to be resolved in preparation for future infectious disea
Antioxidative Capacity of Soyfoods and Soy Active Compounds
Soyfood isoflavones and soyasaponins are effective compounds in terms of their health-promoting properties.Their chemical structure plays an important role in their antioxidative activity.Thus, six isoflavones and four soyasaponins that are targeted in soyfood were evaluated for their peroxyl radical scavenging capacities by the hydrophilic-oxygen
Applying the Forchheimer equation to model an artificially recharged fractured aquifer
In the last decades artificial recharge has attracted the attention of many countries where groundwater has been depleted or as a means of enhancing aquifer recharge where natural recharge is being severely affected by climate change.In this work, mathematical models depicting the flow of water within a fractured aquifer with permeable CUTICLE CLEA
A Study on Eye-Blink Detection-Based Communication System by Using K-Nearest Neighbors Classifier
There are 450 thousand patients in the world who is diagnosed Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.These patients lose control of all the muscles in their body except the eye movements.The purpose of the studies in this research area is to design a system, which the patients can express the basic needs, works with high accuracy, which all patients can aff
Modeling Flow and Pressure Fields in Porous Media with High Conductivity Flow Channels and Smart Placement of Branch Cuts for Variant and Invariant Complex Potentials
A long overdue distinction between so-called variant and invariant complex potentials is proposed here for the first time.Invariant complex potentials describe physical flows where a switch of the real and imaginary parts of the function will still describe the same type of physical flow (but only rotated by π/2).Such invariants can be formula
