COMMUNAL CONFLICTS IN NIGERIA: ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACTS ON INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS AND SETTLEMENTS AMIDST COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Communal conflicts in Nigeria: Assessment of the impacts on internally displaced persons and settlements amidst COVID-19 pandemic

Acknowledging that violent communal conflicts can lead to cirque colors lavender sky increased displacement and overcrowding in IDP camps, this study investigates the impact of such conflicts on internally displaced persons (IDPs) and their camps in Benue State, Nigeria, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.Employing a mixed-method approach, 386 IDPs and 20

Capillarized Liver Sinusoidal Endothelial Cells Undergo Partial Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transition to Actively Deposit Sinusoidal ECM in Liver Fibrosis

Tissue-specific endothelial cells are more than simply a barrier lining capillaries and are proved to be capable of remarkable plasticity to become active collagen matrix-producing myofibroblasts (MFs) in solid organs with fibrosis.Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) also participate in the development of hepatic fibrosis, but the exact role

Impact of various DIII-D diagnostics on the accuracy of neural network surrogates for kinetic EFIT reconstructions

Kinetic equilibrium reconstructions make use of mn triton pillar pod profile information such as particle density and temperature measurements in addition to magnetics data to compute a self-consistent equilibrium.They are used in a multitude of physics-based modeling.This work develops a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network (NN) model as a

Economic scheduling and dispatching of distributed generators considering uncertainties in modified 33-bus and modified 69-bus system under different microgrid regions

This paper presents a comprehensive framework for the economic scheduling and dispatching of Distributed Generators (DGs) in modified 33-bus and 69-bus systems across multi-microgrid regions.The framework introduces two key techniques: a novel dispatch strategy for optimizing the charging and discharging of Electric Vehicle (EV) batteries, and a ro
