AbstractThe present study aimed to analyze and spatially model maximum rainfall in the southern and southwestern regions of Minas Gerais using spatial statistical methods. Daily data on maximum rainfall were collected from 29 cities in the region. To obtain predictions of maximum rainfall for return periods of 2, 5, 10, 50, and 100 years, Bayesian Inference was emp...... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractColorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common, harmful, and universal cancer and the second lethal type. This paper discusses the therapeutic potential of curcumin, a significant curcuminoid found in the substructure of plant Curcuma longa (turmeric), against CRC. Curcumin has the ability to disrupt a variety of cellular signal...... hiện toàn bộ
AbstractThis study presents a GIS analysis model that utilizes high-resolution Digital Elevation Map data to predict the initiation points of debris flow through the overlap of slope stability analysis techniques and rainfall flow analysis. The debris flow that occurred on Mount Woomyun in Seoul, South Korea in 2011 was selected as the case study for comparing and ...... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractIn the realm of sustainable development, universal access to safe and nutritious food and medicine is paramount, particularly championed by the “Zero Hunger” initiative. This article comprehensively reviews the status of research on Ximenia caffra Sond, commonly known as Wild sour plum, an underutilized plant offering versatile ap...... hiện toàn bộ
AbstractIn this study, a series of small-scale physical model tests were conducted to investigate the effects of fully wrapped geogrid sheets on the load‒settlement response of medium-dense sandy soil beneath a single-strip foundation. Recent research has provided evidence of how different parameters affect the behavior of dense sandy soil when reinforced with full...... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractIn the field of model-based development, and especially model-based systems engineering, the efficient and effective use of system models and specific models is of great interest. However, models strongly depend on the method they are linked to. Methods require models as input and associated models that are part of the method itself. Subsequent, methods are...... hiện toàn bộ
