Field experiments were devised to mimic the entrapment conditions under the rubble of collapsed buildings aiming to investigate the evolution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the early dead body decomposition ...

A simple yet powerful programming tool enabling in silico experimentation, end-to-end data management through web services as well as use of grid and cloud processing power is scientific workflows. This technology is ...

The spectra of thin amorphous films of MoO3 deposited by vacuum evaporation have been studied within the spectral range 4000-400 cm-1 by the Fourier transform infrared technique. Some samples in the thickness range 100 to ...

A linear quantitative-structure activity relationship model is developed in this work using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis as applied to a series of 51 1-(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-piperidinyl phenylacetamides derivatives ...

Enterprise Collaboration and Enterprise Interoperability are two key aspects of networked enterprises, which proceed along parallel tracks with rare opportunities to convene, support and influence each other. To resolve ...

The advancements made in terms of the capabilities of mobile devices have shifted the interest of service engineering towards frameworks that are able to deliver applications rapidly and efficiently. The development of ...

In this work, a linear quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model is presented for the prediction of intrinsic viscosity in polymer solutions. The model was produced by using the multiple linear regression ...

Since Pauling's paper in the 1970s, interest has increased in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from different bio-fluids, such as blood and urine. A number of VOCs reflect internal biochemical pathways occurring ...

A classification of various categories of entrapped people under the ruins of collapsed buildings after earthquakes, technical failures or explosions is proposed. Type and degree of injury at the moment of building collapse ...

The social isolation of older adults in Europe is a key and continuously growing issue that demands immediate attention. Older adults might feel isolated and lonely mainly because they lack human contact and social support. ...
