Astrocytes, one of the largest glial cell population in the central nervous system (CNS), play a key function in several events of brain development and function, such as synapse formation and function, control of neurotransmitters release and uptake, Blocks production of trophic factors and control of neuronal survival.Initially described as a hom
The motion of passive admixture of spherical particles in the stationary hydrodynamic field of a swirling flow is studied.A spherical particle of a given mass in the hydrodynamic field of a swirling flow is located on a certain MENS JACKETS circular orbit, where the centrifugal force is compensated by the radial drag force due to the sink.This lead
In recent years, the use of encased steel concrete columns has been increased significantly in medium-rise or high-rise buildings.The aim of the present investigation is to assess experimentally the current methods and codes for evaluating the ultimate load behavior of concrete encased steel short columns.The current state of design provisions for
The design of concrete elevated water tanks involves several kinds of uncertainties.Traditionally, the design of these structures is based on a deterministic analysis.Partial safety factors prescribed in design codes are applied to take into account these uncertainties and to ensure sufficiently safe design.However, this approach does not allow rat
