The book covers many aspects of the mechanics of deformable solids, starting from fundamental
concepts, taking the reader step-by-step to more complex and interesting applications. …

In this review, we will try to summarize some recent data concerning the changes in polyamine
metabolism (biosynthesis, catabolism and regulation) in higher plants subjected to a wide …

The continuous increasing demand for energy and the diminishing tendency of petroleum
resources has led to the search for alternative renewable and sustainable fuel. Biodiesel is …

Biodiesel as a biodegradable, sustainable and clean energy has worldwide attracted renewed
and growing interest in topical years, chiefly due to development in biodiesel fuel and …

The application of perturbation expansion techniques to the analysis of heat transfer in
structures and materials is discussed. Among the specific techniques described are: regular …

The boundary layer flow induced in a nanofluid due to a linearly stretching sheet is studied
numerically. The transport equations include the effects of Brownian motion and …

Construction cost overrun has become a global concern amongst the practitioners and
academic researchers because the construction projects are very rarely completed within the …

This paper considers the classical problem of hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers
over a flat plate in a uniform stream of fluid. It is well known that similarity solutions of the …

Graphs are widely used as a popular representation of the network structure of connected
data. Graph data can be found in a broad spectrum of application domains such as social …

A growing body of literature is advancing the impact of financial inclusion and digital finance
on marginalized populations. However, mainstream scholarship has not focused on …
