The research work aims to utilize one of the cheapest and most abundantly available natural fibre, sisal fibre, to fabricate a hybrid nanocomposite possessing high performance efficiency.Glass fibre (GFC), sisal fibre (SFC) and hybrid glass/sisal fibre reinforced epoxy laminate composites (HFC) were prepared and subsequently, three of the most prom
Modeling Discrete Survival Time Using Genomic Feature Data
Researchers have recently shown that penalized models perform well when applied to high-throughput genomic data.Previous researchers introduced the generalized monotone incremental forward stagewise (GMIFS) method for fitting overparameterized logistic regression models.The GMIFS method was subsequently extended by others for fitting several differ
Virome analysis of Desmodus rotundus tissue samples from the Amazon region
Abstract Background Bats are renowned for harboring a high viral diversity, their characteristics contribute to emerging infectious diseases.However, environmental and anthropic factors also play a significant role in the emergence of zoonotic Dugouts viruses.Metagenomic is an important tool for investigating the virome of bats and discovering new
Identification of weld sub-surface defects by radiographic images using texture features
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is important to detect sub-surface defects in the weldments to ensure the Baggies quality of weld joints.The weld radiographs are digitized using a high-resolution digital camera.Data augmentation techniques are applied to expand the radiographic image dataset.Multi-class defect classification is done using the Gray-le
Syntactic and Semantic Rules in Old English Adjective Formation
The aim of this journal article is to offer a paradigmatic analysis of the formation of adjectives by means of affixation Rolling Machines in Old English.More specifically, the focus is on the change of meaning attributable to the processes of word-formation that turn out affixal adjectives.In a paradigmatic model, the formal modification of stems
