Recurrent pregnancy loss, one of the crucial reproductive health concerns affecting 6% of couples. Clinically recognized pregnancy loss is familiar, occurring in approximately 15-25% cases of pregnancy. The most common cause of recurrent pregnancy loss is cytogenetic anomaly, antiphospholipid antibody, metabolic and hormonal disorders. However, appr…
Many image processing techniques use binarization for object detection in images, where the objects and background are well distinct by their brightness values, where, the threshold level is globally assigned, on the other hand, if it's adaptive, the threshold level is locally calculated. In order to determine the optimal binarization threshold, fro…
With the development of technology, and the change in economy, population etc. the Industrial economy, internet economy and intelligent economy present different characteristics, and entrepreneurship under these different era varies greatly, and there are great differences in the characteristics and value creation logic of business models under the …
The use of mass spectrometry (MS) to measure proteins has grown exponentially over the past 25 years. This growth has been primarily driven by the advent of proteomics in which scientists have developed methods to identify and quantitate as many proteins in a complex mixture as possible. Early studies trended towards the development of techniques t…
Throughout this chapter we will explore the computational applications that can help us in the evaluation, calculation and simulation of the thermal treatment of canned foods. Although some basic principles of microbial death kinetics will be recalled, the course is basically focused on the exploration and use of computational applications to evalua…
The study of the nature of knowledge and philosophical traditions is the foundation of the ancient Indian education system, which aims to enable human life not only to improve personal economic conditions, but also to improve the social, moral, and spiritual aspects of life. People are not only concerned about improving human life, but also realizin…
This study was conducted to first determine the nutritional potential and the antioxidant activity of black plum fruit pulp and peel. For these characterizations, classic methods were used. The results indicated high fibre and ash contents of black plum from all localities studied, ranging, respectively, from 34.79 ± 0.07-39.83 ± 1.85% and 4.9…
Oil undergoes temporary viscosity changes under operating conditions in engines. Therefore, engine oils usually contain polymeric additives called viscosity modifiers. These additives are oil soluble polymers; enable the oil to provide adequate hydrodynamic lubrication at high temperatures and good starting/pumping performance at low temperatures. P…
The rapidity of technological development and multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) has enabled a diversity of models and multi-criteria decision support methods. Then, in Multi-criteria Decision Making problems dealing with qualitative criteria and uncertain information is suitable for the experts in order to express their judgments. It is common t…
In this chapter, the stability of a circular tunnel and dual circular tunnels in cohesive-frictional soils subjected to surcharge loading is investigated by using the node-based smoothed finite element method (NS-FEM). In the NS-FEM, the smoothing strain is calculated over smoothing domains associated with the elements' nodes. The soil is assumed as…
