Bayesian techniques for engineering problems, which Scarf rely on Gaussian process (GP) regression, are known for their ability to quantify epistemic and aleatory uncertainties and for being data efficient.The mathematical elegance of applying these methods usually comes at a high computational cost when compared to deterministic and empirical Baye
Soils at many sites do not always have enough Dummy strength to bear the structures constructed over them and some of the soil may need to be stabilized in order to improve their geotechnical properties.In this paper, routine laboratory tests were critically carried out to investigate the efficacy of lignin in improving the strength behaviour of th
Angiostrongylus cantonensis, OIL ESSENSE the rat lungworm, is the most common infectious cause of eosinophilic meningitis and can be fatal.The parasite can be found throughout Southeast Asia and Pacific Islands and the global distribution is expanding.We present the case of a fourteen-year-old female who had previously traveled to Hawaii and develo
Abstract The introduction of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton has reduced the burden of pests without harming the environment and human health.However, the efficacy of Bt cotton has decreased due to field-evolved resistance in insect pests over time.In this review, we have discussed various factors that facilitate the evolution of resistance in c
Culturally and historically sensitive material and highly diverse student bodies challenge educators in the higher education classroom.Transformative and empowering pedagogies address how different types of learners may experience sensitive material.Critical pedagogies of care create supportive educational environments, compassionate teaching pract
