This study assesses water stress by 2050 in river basins facing increasing human and climatic pressures, by comparing the impacts of various combinations of possible future socio-economic and climate trends.A modelling framework integrating human and hydro-climatic dynamics and accounting for interactions between resource and demand at a 10-day tim
The Talbot self-imaging effect is mostly present in the forms Travel Case of space or time, or in the frequency domain by the Fourier duality.Here, we disclose a new spectral Talbot effect arising in optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes.The effect occurs in the context of petal-like beams, which are typically constructed from a number of in
Streptococcus pneumoniae is well known for phase variation between opaque (O) and transparent (T) colonies Socks within clonal populations.While the O variant is specialized in invasive infection (with a thicker capsule and higher resistance to host clearance), the T counterpart possesses a relatively thinner capsule and thereby higher airway adher
The isolated DC/DC converter connects the low-voltage direct current (LVDC) distribution network and the user-side DC load serving as an important equipment in LVDC distribution network.In this paper,LLC resonant converter with zero voltage switching on primary side and zero current switching on secondary side is adopted.The operation principles of
This study examines the role of Technology Anxiety (TA), age, past use, and cybersickness in the adoption of Virtual Reality (VR) technology.Using an extended Thermal Printer Labels Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the research integrates age and past use as antecedents of TA and evaluates their influence on perceived ease of use (PEoU), perceive
