Three cases of double infection with elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus (EEHV) types 1A and 4 in captive Asian elephants are presented.The first calf was a 4-year-old female that showed initial signs of lethargy and depression.The second calf was a 6-year-old female that displayed signs of depression and diarrhea and died within French Presses 4
Surface albedo partitions the amount of energy received by glacier surfaces from shortwave fluxes and modulates the energy available for melt processes.The ice-albedo feedback, influenced by the contamination of bare-ice surfaces with light-absorbing impurities, plays a major role in the melting of mountain glaciers in a warming climate.However, li
We propose and design a novel homogeneous nanorod-assisted multi-core photonic crystal fiber (NA-PCF), and it utilizes the flexibility of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) for air-hole design, NA-PCF applied to multi-core fiber (MCF) communication system.High refractive index nanorods are introduced in the center of the seven Coffee cores which are furt
In recent years, the flexibility of energy systems has become essential due to the growing penetration of renewable energy sources.The producers and consumers can enhance this flexibility by enabling a given amount of power that they can produce or consume in every condition.This is made available to the grid operator to globally optimize the dispa
This study investigated the effects of steel fibers on the fresh and hardened properties, and heat of hydration of concrete containing FA (Fly Ash).A total of 192 samples were cast comprising cubes, cylinders, and prisms, for six concrete mixes with varying contents of steel fibers by volume and a fixed content of FA i.e.15% by weight of cement.The
