Smart agriculture integrates a set of technologies, devices, protocols, and computational paradigms to improve agricultural processes.Big data, artificial intelligence, cloud, and edge computing provide capabilities and solutions to keep, store, and analyze the massive data generated by components.However, smart agriculture is still emerging and ha
Abstract This paper presents a mechanical model for the simulation of reinforced concrete (RC) wall boundary elements with lap splices, which builds on the tension chord model.The model is composed of an assembly of components, each one accounting for a different source of deformation.Namely: (i) an anchorage-slip element accounting for the strain
Hepcidin, a short peptide synthesized primarily by hepatocytes in response to increased body iron and inflammation, is a crucial iron-regulating factor.Hepcidin regulates intestinal iron absorption and releases iron from macrophages into plasma through a negative iron shure blx2 h10 feedback mechanism.The discovery of hepcidin inspired a torrent of
Diesel engine emissions can be improved by adding organic oxygenated compounds to the No.2 diesel fuel.In this study, effects of 10 % and 15 % (in volume) shirogorov neon zero ethanol addition to Diesel No.2 on exhaust emissions from an indirect injection turbocharged diesel engine running at different engine speeds and loads were investigated.Expe
In recent years, advances in technologies, such as machine learning, natural language processing, and automated data processing, have offered potential biomedical and public health applications that use massive data sources, e.g., social media.However, current methods are underutilized for features including consumer health terminology in social me
