Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are common products of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, xenobiotics metabolism and are generated in response to several environmental stress conditions.Some of them play important biochemical roles in cellular signal HEADGEAR transduction and gene transcription.On the other hand, ROS are known to be involved in
Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are Stereo hazardous and destructive phenomena that pose a significant threat to communities living in the proximity of active volcanoes.PDCs are ground-hugging density currents comprised of high temperature mixtures of pyroclasts, lithics, and gas that can propagate kilometres away from their source.The physical
The escalating mass of solid waste at an overwhelming sum requires a global attention to strive for efficient waste management and to outsource the ecological treatments.The asphalt pavement industry that consumes a vast scale of natural resources while contributing to thermal and greenhouse emissions is viewed as a high potential alternative for t
A wide variety of natural catastrophes are induced by coal mining, with fire hazard being one of the most significant threats to underground engineering structures.In recent years, there has been an alarming rise in mine fire accidents due to the abundance of coal deposits around the world.Underground fires and explosions have continuously been the
The assessment of the rocking and overturning response of rigid blocks to earthquakes is a complex task, due to its high sensitivity to the input motion, variations in geometry and dissipation issues.This paper presents a literature review dealing with classical and advanced approaches on rocking motion with particular reference to masonry walls ch
