Ecotoxicological Assessment of Thermally- and Hydrogen-Reduced Graphene Oxide/TiO₂ Photocatalytic Nanocomposites Using the Zebrafish Embryo Model by Halema Al-Kandari (6316961)

“…However, both nanocomposites should be used with caution at concentration higher than the NOEC (400 mg/L), in particular RGOTi, which significantly (i) caused pericardial and yolk sac edema; (ii) decreased the hatching rate, locomotion, and hematopoietic activities; and (iii) affected the heart rate. …”

Quantitative Compressibility Effects in Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Circular Contacts by Habchi, W.

“…It is also observed that the relative errors on central film thicknesses induced by the use of the Dowson and Higginson relationship for compressibility increase with load and temperature and are very little affected by mean entrainment speed. Compressibility is shown to be a significant source of error in film-derived measurements of pressure-viscosity coefficients especially at high temperature. …”

Modeling the influence of daily temperature and precipitation extreme indices on vegetation dynamics in Katsina State using statistical downscaling model (SDM) by Mohammad, Hadi Ahmad

“…The results indicate that the statistical downscaling model (SDSM) is performing satisfactorily in predicting maximum and minimum temperatures, along with precipitation, for the time horizon of the simulation. Mean precipitation of 1.98 mm (RCP2.6), 2.03 mm (RCP4.5), and 2.07 mm (RCP8.5) was revealed in the study area. …”

Machine Learning Models for Scheduling On-Demand Fog Placement and Optimizing Container Deployment by Farhat, Peter

“…Fog computing is an extended cloud computing technology allowing services embedded into virtual machines or containers to be placed at the edge with closer proximity to the end devices. Nevertheless, one of the main difficulties adding up to the complexity of the on-demand fog placement topic is deciding on the proper time and place of the fog deployment process, and deriving the adequate container and service distribution over the available fogs at a certain location. …”
