Approximate Analytical Solution of the Influences of Magnetic Field and Chemical Reaction on Unsteady Convective Heat and Mass Transfer of Air, Water, and Electrolyte Fluids Subjec... by M. Sulemana, Y. I. Seini, O. D. Makinde

“…This makes water useful in applications such as geothermal heat pumps and solar thermal collectors, industrial processes such as chemical reactions, distillation, and drying, and in oceanography in predicting the movement and behavior of ocean currents, which in turn can impact weather patterns and climate. Another major observation from the study is that the rate of cooling associated with air, water, or electrolyte impacts differently on the product being cooled.…”

Utilization of shrimp head powder to enhance color performance and growth of multicolor betta fish (Betta splendens) by Andri Iskandar, Fauzan Arya Maulana, Hendriana Andri, Kusumanti Ima, Permatasari Sheny, Wahyudi Imam Tri

“…The research procedure included the preparation of shrimp head meal, mixing feed with TKU, fish rearing, and observation of changes in color brightness, weight and length growth, survival rate, and water quality. The results showed that the utilization of shrimp head meal supplemented into the feed improved the performance of brightness and color patterns in multi-colored cupang fish, including length gain during the treatment, with optimum results shown in the 10% TKU treatment.…”

Time-varying spectral power of resting-state fMRI networks reveal cross-frequency dependence in dynamic connectivity. by Maziar Yaesoubi, Robyn L Miller, Vince D Calhoun

“…Despite high spatial resolution, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) suffers from low temporal resolution due to modulation with slow-varying hemodynamic response function (HRF) and also relatively low sampling rate. This limits the range of detectable frequency bands in fMRI and consequently there has been no evidence of cross-frequency dependence in fMRI data. …”
