Brane Gas Cosmology, M-theory and Little String Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We generalize the Brane Gas Cosmological Scenario to M-theory degrees of freedom, namely $M5$ and $M2$ branes. Without brane intersections, the Brandenberger Vafa(BV) arguments applied to M-theory degrees of freedom generically predict a large 6 ...

A Simple Method for Converting 1-km Resolution Daily Clear-Sky LST into Real LST [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Land-surface temperature (LST) plays a key role in the physical processes of surface energy and water balance from local through global scales. The widely used one kilometre resolution daily Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) LST product has missing values due to the influence of clouds.

Surface Quality and Free Energy Evaluation of s275 Steel by Shot Blasting, Abrasive Water Jet Texturing and Laser Surface Texturing

open access: yesMetals, 2020
Surface modification by different technologies prior to joining operations or improving tribological properties is a point of great interest. Improving surface activation by increasing the roughness of the metal is a relationship that is becoming more ...

Determination of stress concentration factors in offshore wind welded structures through a hybrid experimental and numerical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Offshore wind turbine (OWT) monopile support structures generally consist of steel cans connected together through circumferential welding joints. One critical factor to evaluate the localised increase in stresses is the stress concentration factor (SCF)

COVID-19 lockdown effect on land surface temperature and normalized difference vegetation index

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2021
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has changed the human lifestyle just like a disaster in 2020. Many people died throughout the world due to its severe attack.

Hookworm Infection and Environmental Factors in Mbeya Region, Tanzania: A Cross-sectional, Population-based study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Hookworm disease is one of the most common infections and cause of a high disease burden in the tropics and subtropics. Remotely sensed ecological data and model-based geostatistics have been used recently to identify areas in need for hookworm control ...

Modeling Spatio-Temporal Land Transformation and Its Associated Impacts on land Surface Temperature (LST)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Land use land cover (LULC) of city regions is strongly affected by urbanization and affects the thermal environment of urban centers by influencing the surface temperature of core city areas and their surroundings.

Remotely Sensed Land Surface Temperature-Based Water Stress Index for Wetland Habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Despite covering only 2−6% of land, wetland ecosystems play an important role at the local and global scale. They provide various ecosystem services (carbon dioxide sequestration, pollution removal, water retention, climate regulation, etc.) as ...

Impacts of Land Cover Changes on Land Surface Temperature Using Landsat Imagery with the Supervised Classification Method

open access: yesAceh International Journal of Science and Technology, 2023
Land cover changes affecting the area's ecology align with the development and increase in urbanization. Tarogong Kidul Subdistrict, Garut Regency, experienced changes in the land cover which changed the soil surface temperature.

Daytime sensible heat flux estimation over heterogeneous surfaces using multitemporal land‐surface temperature observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Equations based on surface renewal (SR) analysis to estimate the sensible heat flux (H) require as input the mean ramp amplitude and period observed in the ramp‐like pattern of the air temperature measured at high frequency. A SR‐based method to estimate
