This paper has demonstrated the design aspects for inland water units working in the River Nile.The acting loads and stresses induced within the structural elements of Nile barges are still water bending moment and stresses, local hydrostatic pressure and local stresses.The objective of this work is to rationalize the design procedure using PALAIS
The growing demand for edible oils for food and fuel has increased interest in non- edible oils like waste cooking NAC N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine oils (WCOs) for biodiesel production.However, biodiesel faces challenges, such as low oxidative stability and poor cold flow properties.These fuel properties are influenced by the composition of fatty acid methy
Plants and herbivores have co-evolved in their natural habitats for about 350 million years, but since the domestication of crops, plant resistance against insects has taken a different turn.With the onset of monoculture-driven modern agriculture, selective pressure on insects to overcome resistances has dramatically increased.Therefore plant breed
When we assume that contemporary management actions will be effective against the global rise of emerging alien species, we can develop management complacency, which leads to potentially disastrous outcomes for native biodiversity.Here, we propose the use of the probability of detection as a metric to assess the feasibility of management actions fo
Here, we discuss tensions inherent in multistakeholder 3 Piece RAF Sectional approaches addressing conflicts over natural resources as well as the involvement of stakeholders in research.Our discussion is built on knowledge generated by extensive research on the impacts of private farm conversions to game farms in South Africa, where significant in
