This article analyzes the pressure of farming on tropical forests in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Brazil.Making use of GIS technology, it was possible to create a Torches map for the South Central of the Minas Gerais province and geocode historical data for agriculture and livestock production.We have found an association between corn and swi
Chagas disease (CD), a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is an important public health problem mainly in Latin America, leading to approximately 12,000 annual Softball Glove deaths.Current etiological treatment for CD is limited to two nitro compounds, benznidazole (Bz) and nifurtimox (Nif), both present
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), power consumption is an important aspect when designing routing protocols.When compared to other components of a sensor node, the power required by radio transmitters is responsible for most of the consumption.One way to optimize energy consumption is by using energy-aware protocols.Such protocols take into consi
In the current exploration, a similarity solution is bestowed for hydromagnetic motion of a nanofluid over a slendering stretching sheet with the existence of thermophoresis and Brownian moment.We first altered the time dependent governing mathematical equations into coupled dimensionless differential equations by making use of apposite transmutati
Porous ceramic roof-tile waste aggregate (PCA), which is a recycled material, is an effective internal curing material for concrete.Part of the aggregate is replaced with saturated internal Lightweight Transport Wheelchairs curing material to supply internal water into the cement paste continuously.Internal water is effective to promote the hydrati
