A major concem about African development is not so much that the war on povelfy is far from being won but because the practice of development administrators lacks professionalism.Calls for involving beneficiaries in democratic project decision making, for conducting systematic social science research as the basis for external intervention, and for
Concrete Highway Crack Detection Based on Visible Light and Infrared Silicate Spectrum Image Fusion
Cracks provide the earliest and most immediate visual response to structural deterioration of asphalt pavements.Most of the Notebooks/Notepads current methods for crack detection are based on visible light sensors and convolutional neural networks.However, such an approach obviously limits the detection to daytime and good lighting conditions.There
Modern Architecture as an Inspiration for Contemporary Fashion Design
Fashion is an art of plastic arts that has a close relationship with other arts that appear in the cultural and Wire Harness Assembly civilized climate.In each historical period, these arts pursue a distinctive artistic cover that expresses the spirit of the age and the requirements of that period, and then the forces that affect the fashion design
Numerical Investigation of Hydrodynamic Characteristics of a Rim-Driven Thruster Coupled with an Underwater Vehicle
In this paper, the hydrodynamic characteristics of a rim-driven thruster (RDT) behind the hull of an underwater vehicle are investigated.The studied underwater vehicle is the benchmark DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) suboff model, with and without full appendages.In order to verify and validate the numerical model, a grid sensitiv
Ultraviolet-Sensor Based on Tin-Doped Zinc Oxide Thin Films Grown by Spray Pyrolysis
The development of sensors that can monitor ultraviolet radiation has many implications for daily life, and even more so if the focus is on low-cost solution processes and the use of eco-friendly materials.In this study, we produced a UV-sensor based on Sn-doped ZnO thin films grown by spray pyrolysis, with a doping content ranging from 1 to 10 at.
