Multi-Physics Coupling Model for Thermal Hydraulics and Solute Transport in CRUD Deposits

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractThe porous Chalk River Unidentified Deposit (CRUD) depositions on the fuel cladding have a great impact on the heat transfer and power distribution of the reactor, resulting in a decrease in reactor safety and economy. In current paper, a multi-physics model is developed to simulate thermal hydraulics and boron hideout within the CRUD ...

Mechanical Transmission of Protozoan and Helminthic Parasites by Synanthropic Flies in Sana′a, Yemen

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Nonbiting flies, particularly Musca domestica and Sarcophaga haemorrhoidalis, are widely recognized as potential mechanical vectors of intestinal parasites. This study investigated the role of these flies in transmitting parasitic organisms in Sana′a City, Yemen, where poor sanitation may facilitate such transmission.
