Water transport inside carbon nano-tubes (CNTs) has attracted considerable attention due to its nano-fluidic properties, its importance in nonporous systems, and the wide range of applications in membrane desalination and biological medicine.Recent studies show an Vinegars enhancement of water diffusion inside nano-channels depending on the size of

Previous earthquake experiences have shown that conventional yielding dampers designed for an earthquake intensity cannot perform adequately at higher intensity levels.This paper addresses this issue by proposing a two-level yielding configuration for knee-braced steel frames having an innovative deformation-controlled ring damper (CRD).The propose

The young nation of West Africa, part of the former French colonial system, has a long history showing a clear integration within the context of the Sahel region.After independence, it followed a particular evolution: though its economic and social development was not free of the contradictions and the failures so characteristic for former colonies

This research explores the design and evaluation of a webcam-based presentation tool that enables presenters to directly interact with web content via free-hand gestures.Our approach consists of overlaying the webcam video feed on top of web browser content to enable live presentations of any webpage.To support interactive presentations, we designe

Serving Platter Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common complaint encountered in clinical practice.Numerous etiological factors require investigation in patients who present with EDS, including those that can be resolved via simple recommendations.This study reports a case of a 70-year-old man presenting with EDS.The possible etiological cau
