Corrosion of reinforcement can affect durability and integrity of reinforced concrete structures.Repair cost for a badly corroded structure can be very costly and time consuming.In this paper, several capacitor sensors were developed to monitor corrosion potential of reinforcement in concrete.The impedance capacitive of sensors was tested in variou
K nearest neighbor (kNN) search is an important problem in location-based services (LBS) and has been well studied on static road networks.However, in real world, road networks are often time-dependent; i.e., the time for traveling through a road always changes over time.Most existing methods for kNN query build various indexes maintaining icon tra
The intra-aggregate architecture of soil macroaggregates arrethe bush balm provides suitable microhabitats for nematodes to graze on microorganisms.However, it is not fully clear how nematodes and microbial communities interactively mediate soil organic carbon (SOC) turnover.Here, we aimed to illustrate the relationships between nematodes, microbia
The data about distribution of Stipa L.species on the Right-Bank Dnipro area are cited.It is underlined that the existent network of the nature reserve fund chocolate chip cookie purse of this region does not provide the effective protection of survived steppe grasses.The necessity of Stipa L.species conservation in botanical gardens is proved.Five
Chemical detection is key to various behaviours in both marine and terrestrial animals.Marine species, though highly diverse, have been underrepresented so far in studies on chemosensory systems, and our knowledge mostly concerns the detection of airborne cues.A broader comparative approach is therefore desirable.Marine annelid worms with their ric
