Effect of asymmetrical heat rise/fall on the film flow of magnetohydrodynamic hybrid ferrofluid
( Springer Nature , 2020 , Article)The movement of the ferrous nanoparticles is random in the base fluid, and it will be homogeneous under the enforced magnetic field. This phenomenon shows a significant impact on the energy transmission process. In view ... -
OpenFOAM for computational combustion dynamics
( Springer Nature , 2022 , Article)In computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the mathematical description of a physical phenomenon that involves fluid flow, combustion, and chemical reaction is combined with a numerical solution of the problem via the use of ... -
Algorithms for simultaneous block triangularization and block diagonalization of sets of matrices
( AIMS Press , 2023 , Article)In a recent paper, a new method was proposed to find the common invariant subspaces of a set of matrices. This paper investigates the more general problem of putting a set of matrices into block triangular or block-diagonal ... -
Zooplankton abundance and community structure driven by tidal currents in a Mediterranean coastal lagoon (Boughrara, Tunisia, SW Mediterranean Sea)
( Academic Press , 2021 , Article)Lagoons and coastal marine zones are very productive and useful ecosystems, but they are threatened by the effects of global change and anthropogenic pressures. These effects have a negative impact on the zooplankton, ... -
Unfolding jellyfish bloom dynamics along the mediterranean basin by transnational citizen science initiatives
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)Science is addressing global societal challenges, and due to limitations in research financing, scientists are turning to the public at large to jointly tackle specific environmental issues. Citizens are therefore increasingly ... -
Acute and chronic toxicity assessments of 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) on the calanoid copepod Acartia clausi: Effects on survival, development, sex-ratio and reproduction
( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Article)Estrogens, such as the 17β-estradiol (E2) and the 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2), have been regarded as a global threat to aquatic ecosystems due to their pseudo-persistence, their high estrogenic activity and their toxicity ... -
MHD effects on nanofluid with energy and hydrothermal behavior between two collateral plates application of new semi analytical technique
( Vinca Inst Nuclear Sci , 2017 , Article)In this study, heat and mass transfer characteristic of unsteady nanofluid flow between parallel plates is investigated. The important effect of Brownian motion and thermophoresis has been included in the model of nanofluid. ... -
The perils of building big: Desalination sustainability and brine regulation in the Arab Gulf countries
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Seawater desalination has become an accessible option for augmenting freshwater supplies worldwide. In the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), it has been practiced for decades as the main source for domestic ... -
Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) as a Platform for Modeling Arrhythmias
( Springer Nature , 2022 , Book chapter)Cardiac arrhythmias can arise due to a host of both genetic and acquired factors. Specifically, the genetic basis of arrhythmogenesis is not fully understood due to the lack of robust models that reliably recapitulate human ... -
MicroRNA205: A Key Regulator of Cardiomyocyte Transition from Proliferative to Hypertrophic Growth in the Neonatal Heart
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2024 , Article)The mammalian myocardium grows rapidly during early development due to cardiomyocyte proliferation, which later transitions to cell hypertrophy to sustain the heart’s postnatal growth. Although this cell transition in the ... -

( Georg Thieme Verlag , 2024 , Article)Aim The study aims to review all the genetically confirmed STAC3-related myopathy being followed in a single center in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. Methodology A retrospective review of all genetically confirmed ... -
Why Craniofacial Surgeons/Researchers Need to be Aware of Native American Myopathy?
( Georg Thieme Verlag , 2024 , Other)Congenital myopathy type 13 (CMYO13), also known as Native American myopathy, is a rare muscle disease characterized by early-onset hypotonia, muscle weakness, delayed motor milestones, and susceptibility to malignant ... -
Widespread diversity deficits of coral reef sharks and rays
( American Association for the Advancement of Science , 2023 , Article)A global survey of coral reefs reveals that overfishing is driving resident shark species toward extinction, causing diversity deficits in reef elasmobranch (shark and ray) assemblages. Our species-level analysis revealed ... -
Application of MALDI Biotyper System for Rapid Identification of Bacteria Isolated from a Fresh Produce Market
( Springer New York LLC , 2019 , Article)MALDI-TOF MS has revolutionized the identification of microorganisms and has become an indispensable part of routine diagnostics in the clinical microbiological laboratory. However, application of this technique in microbial ... -
