Knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses regarding disaster management: A Study from Peshawar KPK
Background: Disasters are unforeseeable events that destroy lives and affect people, ruins possessions and disturb environment. Nurses play a vital role in dealing with the victims of such events and it is essential for nurses to be prepared in facing ...

The generalized recurrent set, explosions and Lyapunov functions [PDF]
We consider explosions in the generalized recurrent set for homeomorphisms on a compact metric space. We provide multiple examples to show that such explosions can occur, in contrast to the case for the chain recurrent set.

Thermodynamics of explosions [PDF]
We present our first attempts to formulate a thermodynamics-like description of explosions. The motivation is partly a fundamental interest in non-equilibrium statistical physics, partly the resemblance of an explosion to the late stages of a heavy-ion ...

Simplified Interfacial Area Modeling in Polydisperse Two-Phase Flows under Explosion Situations
The aim of the present work is to account for polydisperse effects in a two-phase flow with a simple and fast method. Polydisperse two-phase flows arise in numerous applications.

Investigating the Efficiency of Explosion Chemistry as a Source of Complex Organic Molecules in TMC-1 [PDF]
Many species of complex organic molecules (COMs) have been observed in several astrophysical environments but it is not clear how they are produced, particularly in cold, quiescent regions.

Delay Times and Rates for Type Ia Supernovae and Thermonuclear Explosions from Double-detonation Sub-Chandrasekhar Mass Models [PDF]
We present theoretical delay times and rates of thermonuclear explosions that are thought to produce Type Ia supernovae, including the double-detonation sub-Chandrasekhar mass model, using the population synthesis binary evolution code StarTrack.

The Status of Multi-Dimensional Core-Collapse Supernova Models [PDF]
Models of core-collapse supernova explosions powered by the neutrino-driven mechanism have matured considerable in recent years. Explosions at the low-mass end of the progenitor spectrum can routinely be simulated in 1D, 2D, and 3D and allow us to study ...
