Cadmium (Cd) and arsenic gtech brush bar (As) are widely distributed pollutants that co-exist in the environment; however, their joint toxicity on living organisms is still largely unknown.In this study, we explored the joint toxicity of concurrent exposure to Cd and different As species at low concentrations on Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegans) i
Model Tests of Earth Pressure on Buried Rigid Pipes and Flexible Pipes underneath Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
To obtain the optimal load-reduction scheme and calculation method of earth pressure on the crown of the pipe, the load-reduction efficiency of rigid pipe and flexible pipe with different thicknesses and layers of expanded polystyrene (EPS) is investigated by model tests, and the law of load reduction is obtained by analyzing the earth pressure and
Prediction of Complex Odor from Pig Barn Using Machine Learning and Identifying the Influence of Variables Using Explainable Artificial Intelligence
Odor is a very serious problem worldwide.Thus, odor prediction research has been conducted consistently to help prevent odor.Odor substances that are complex odors are known, but complex odors and odor substances do not have a linear dependence.In addition, depending on the combination of odor substances, the causal relationships, such as synergy a
Development of non-linear models to evaluate the NiTi SMA spring actuator
The shape memory alloy (SMA) based actuators are replacing huge and bulky actuators because of its ability to provide high work per unit mass and serves as active prismatic joint to develop precise robotic manipulators.It also helps in developing a light weight manipulators with a simple actuation process.Here, the study presents the relationship b
Ontogeny of the alligator cartilago transiliens and its significance for sauropsid jaw muscle evolution.
The cartilago transiliens is a fibrocartilaginous structure within the jaw muscles of crocodylians.The cartilago transiliens slides between the pterygoid buttress and coronoid region of the lower jaw and connects two muscles historically identified as m.pseudotemporalis superficialis and m.intramandibularis.However, the position of cartilago transi
