A significant part of thermal energy is lost precisely during its transportation.By increasing the efficiency of thermal insulation of pipelines, it is possible to reduce significantly heat loss around the world.The purpose of the paper is to develop and validate methods for increasing the efficiency of thermal insulation of pipelines by determinin
Investigating celestial polarization patterns in the case of different environments is important for exploring the atmospheric radiative transfer mechanism.Although intensive studies on clear sky, foggy sky, and even total solar eclipse sky have been conducted, the polarization distribution generated by the moonlight has not been well investigated.
yellow shirt relics This article employed the ARCH, GARCH and EGARCH models to model the oil price volatility and macroeconomic variables in South Africa for the period 1990Q1 to 2018Q2.The macroeconomic variables used in the study are GDP, inflation, interest rate and exchange rates.According to ARCH (1) and GARCH (1, 1) models, exchange rate and
The first report demonstrating that prolonged endurance exercise promotes oxidative stress in humans was published more than 4 decades ago.Since this discovery, many ensuing investigations have corroborated the fact that muscular exercise increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and results in oxidative stress in numerous tissues i
Abstract Background Incontinence associated dermatitis (IAD) is an inflammatory skin disease mainly triggered by prolonged skin contact with urine, feces but also liberal detergent use when cleansing the skin.To minimize the epidermal barrier challenge we optimized the design of adult incontinence briefs.In the fluid absorption area we interposed a
