The size of the deposit, geology and production volumes, affects the area of deformation, which can spread over huge areas. Accordingly, regional deformation monitoring is required for such fields. In order to provide high detail coverage of the area, traditional ground-based methods are impractical and costly. More timely and cost-effective for monitoring deformation of large territories is the use of differential radar interferometry. \u0000The results of high-precision geodetic measurements for the period 2019-2021 revealed that more observation points have significant negative values. This indicates a stable process of subsidence of the earth, predominantly. Analysis and interpretation of the obtained results of geodynamic monitoring (high-precision leveling, radar interferometry), allowed to determine that the condition for the formation of vertical and horizontal deformations of the earth's surface is a natural-technogenic factor.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"27 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141347920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research phrases related to BSW water are energized, hexagonal, interfacial, or bound water because they refer to biological water with similar structural, functionality, and general water properties. Structured water is formed by shortening hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) in free water, forming various polymeric water structures. In living organisms, BSW water has liquid crystalline properties that have excellent redox qualities due to the energized state of the hexagonal ring structure. Each hexagonal ring has a vortex of delocalized electrons and protons that form pi orbitals above and below each ring, contributing to myriad redox reactions within cells. In addition, the energized hexagonal water rings can be readily split or ionized with minimal energy inputs, providing the oxygen-based ions needed to initiate water respiration. The water respiration pathway can convert the high-grade chemical energy stored in energized, biologically structured water into supplemental energy for cells. The water respiration theory based on interfacial structured water is revisited due to recent findings of superconductivity water properties. The contribution of energized BSW water to redox biology and water respiration can be associated with improved metabolic efficiency and enhanced physiological performance in all life forms. Finally, this article will review recent findings involving quantum biology and BSW water. When BSW water is confined in extremely small sites such as proton wires or water wires, the water properties take on strange quantum properties that stretch the accepted theories of chemistry and physics.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"5 S16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138995208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, it analyzes the radiation profiles and compares them to the ratio of water molecules to CO2 molecules. Examining the radiation profiles of water vapor and CO2 showed the overlap made it virtually impossible to separate the warming effects. Calculating the ratio of water vapor molecules to CO2 molecules by proven physics and chemistry is accurate for separating the individual warming effects. The results of a quantitative examination show water vapor has 1,000 to 7,000 times more impact on the Earth's temperature than CO2. The warming effect of CO2 versus concentration is linear. In contrast, the warming effect of water vapor versus concentration is curved. The lowest level of the atmosphere, the Troposphere, has most of the air mass and water vapor and exercises control over the Earth's temperature. Energy leaving the Troposphere flows virtually unhindered to space. The Sun is Earth's primary energy source, and its natural variations control its temperature.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138620683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such models will allow forecasting of the anticipated landslide movements and failures. The deployment of these models is only possible by the results of geospatial monitoring. However, the measured displacements of the monitoring targets mostly have different values that may deviate a couple of times for different parts of the observed landslide. Therefore, the correct prediction model can be developed for the points with similar displacements, or in other words, for the points with the same displacement velocities. The grouping of points with similar values is known as clustering or zoning task. Having the groups of similar displacements, it is possible to work out the proper prediction model for each group of displacements and detect the probable blunders in the measurements. The paper outlines the results of geospatial monitoring for landslide and anti-landslide structures carried out for small-scale landslide and a system of retaining walls in Kyiv, Ukraine. The efficiency of cluster analysis for uniform displacement zone identification has been studied by the results of geospatial monitoring. The basic principles and ideas of cluster analysis and clustering methods have been given. The different clustering methods have been examined. Each clustering method's efficiency has been estimated by distance determination methods and similarity measures. The quantitative analysis of the considered clustering methods was checked by evaluation analysis. The most reliable results in a line of the study have demonstrated centroid clustering and furthest neighbor clustering. The determined similarity measures for those two methods were almost the same.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127130105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We monitor the growth distances and temperatures of the polyurethane foam in time to reach the optimum formulations. We conduct static compression tests and investigate the effect of drop weight on the deformation of polyurethane foam structures by dropping a weight from a specified height. Dynamic collisions cause deformations of the polyurethane foam structure. After investigating the low weight, we found that polyurethane foams have a good absorption coefficient at certain frequencies. Dynamic stress-strain response curves are used to characterize different stress rates. High-stress levels and similar strains indicate a high resistance to shock. We follow the evolution of microstructure structures by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to observe deformation and fracture behavior with reversibility and recovery.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"306 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133075487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, also some endophytic bacteria are existing in seeds and have not been studied yet. In addition, some Entophytic bacteria are important in plant tolerance to environmental stresses. They can colonize the internal tissues of the host and are able to use a variety of different relations including symbiotic, mutualism, communalistic, and trophobiotic. They have the ability for plant hormone production like auxin, indole acetic acid, and gibberellin; also some endophytic bacteria have the ability for siderophore creation, phosphate solubilization, nitrogen fixation, protease, and hydrogen cyanide formation.. Moreover, they produce compounds that could have possible usage in drug, agriculture or engineering. They have the ability to removesoil toxins thus, improving phytoremediation and soil fertility. Further, most of endophytic bacteria are diazotrophs and associated with the Proteobacteria, and a varied range has been detected agreeing to the nifH gene which codes for nitrogenase enzyme, structures recovered from plant materials, however a limited part of these genes looks to be stated. The endophytes discussed in this review are isolated from surface-disinfested plant tissue, and that do not damage the plant. Moreover, endophytes appear to be in-between saprophytic bacteria and plant pathogens, they are either saprophytes growing to be pathogens, or extremely grown plant pathogens with protective accommodation and nutrient provisions, but not killing their host. Generally, endophytic bacteria are partial under biotic and abiotic influences, with the plant itself being one of the main prompting influences.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114175736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is therefore necessary to have a better understanding of how wind turbines (WTs) impact on their surroundings, including their noise emissions. Among the different methods to compute noise emissions of WTs, semi-empirical models are a valid choice to have a-priori estimations of noise spectra and sound pressure levels. These models are based on correlation laws for different physical mechanisms that contribute to noise generation. Popular models for dominant noise sources include the Amiet approach for inflow turbulence noise and the Lowson model for turbulent boundary layer-trailing edge noise. Determining the parameters involved in these models can be challenging, potentially leading to significant errors in noise prediction. In this study, we conducted a novel sensitivity analysis of the models by varying different parameters such as turbulent intensity and dissipation, boundary layer thickness, and temperature. The selected test case is the reference multi-MW horizontal axis wind turbine Neg-Micon 80. The results of the multilevel-multivariate analysis, involving 63,360 combinations of the input parameters, clearly demonstrate a significant dependence of these models on atmospheric turbulence parameters. Furthermore, these models exhibit an higher sensitivity to input parameters at lower frequencies of the noise spectrum, which are generally associated with higher values of sound pressure level.","PeriodicalId":213934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132988502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
