In vivo evaluation of the toxic and genotoxic effects of exposure to cobalt nanoparticles using Drosophila melanogaster
(Environmental Science Nano, 2020)
Nanomaterials in general and cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) in particular are of great interest not only because of their multiple applications and environmental impact, but also for their potential toxicity and safety issues. ...
Sonic effect on the appreciation of architectural aesthetics in architectural design projects
(The International Journal of Architectonic, Spatial, and Environmental Design, 2020)
Appreciation of visual aesthetics is always connected with the visual experience of art objects. Yet, as the human senses are all connected and work in a comprehensive complex way, there is always a need to investigate the ...
Automated bird counting with deep learning for regional bird distribution mapping
(Animals, 2020)
A challenging problem in the field of avian ecology is deriving information on bird population movement trends. This necessitates the regular counting of birds which is usually not an easily-achievable task. A promising ...
Statistical approaches for the analysis of dependency among neurons under noise
(MDPI, 2020)
Neuronal noise is a major factor affecting the communication between coupled neurons. In this work, we propose a statistical toolset to infer the coupling between two neurons under noise. We estimate these statistical ...
Exchange rate speculation and heterogeneous expectations in a small open economy
(Nonlinear Dynamics, Psychology, and Life Sciences, 2020)
We consider a standard macroeconomic model of a small open economy in which the flow of capital on the international foreign exchange market crucially depends on the expected exchange rate. These expectations about the ...
Interactions of graphene oxide and graphene nanoplatelets with the in vitro Caco-2/HT29 model of intestinal barrier
(Scientific Reports, 2020)
Carbon-based nanomaterials are being increasingly used, demanding strong information to support their safety in terms of human health. As ingestion is one of the most important exposure routes in humans, we have determined ...
DriveWays: a method for identifying possibly overlapping driver pathways in cancer
(Nature Research, 2020)
The majority of the previous methods for identifying cancer driver modules output nonoverlapping modules. This assumption is biologically inaccurate as genes can participate in multiple molecular pathways. This is particularly ...
Accelerated weathering performance of Scots pine preimpregnated with copper-based chemicals before varnish coating Part I: coated with cellulosic and polyurethane varnishes
(Coloration Technology, 2020)
This study aimed to determine the effect of accelerated weathering on gloss, surface hardness and colour changes of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). Test samples were impregnated with Adolit KD‐5, Wolmanit CX‐8 and Celcure ...
On the seismic collapse capacity of optimally designed steel braced frames
(Engineering with Computers, 2020)
The main purpose of this study is to respond to an important question in the field of structural engineering: is the seismic collapse capacity of optimally designed concentrically steel braced frames acceptable or not? The ...
A GIS‑based multi‑criteria evaluation for MSW landfill site selection in Antalya, Burdur, Isparta planning zone in Turkey
(Environmental Earth Sciences, 2020)
Defining the suitable positions for landfill sites on a regional scale is a decision-making procedure based on a number of criteria. In this study, geographic information system analysis and multi criteria decision making ...
