Rift valley fever (RVF), caused by the RVF virus (RVFV), is a vector-borne zoonotic disease that primarily affects domestic ruminants.Abortion storms and neonatal deaths characterise the disease in animals.Humans develop flu-like symptoms, which can progress to severe disease.The susceptibility of domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus) to RVFV remai
In the modern world, the systems getting smarter leads to a rapid increase in the usage of electricity, thereby increasing the load on the grids.The utilities are forced to meet the demand and are under stress during the peak hours due to the shortfall in power generation.The abovesaid deficit signifies the explicit need for a strategy that reduces
This paper proposes a 2-dimensional low computational cost mirror Kirchhoff approximation (MKA) and the design of simulation parameters to accurately predict the shadowing gain for an arbitrarily shaped conductor cylinder.The disadvantages of the conventional MKA, such as lacking designs for the simulation parameters and a limited applicable range,
Hypotheses are presented on the evolution of structural patterns of secondary metabolites (flavonoids and foliar wax alkanes) and fatty acids of families of "campos rupestres".The distribution of fatty acids is given for genera of Lythraceae, with emphasis on Cuphea (supposedly more advanced) and Diplusodon.Compounds with saturated short chains rep
