EVOLUTIONARY AND BIOGEOGRAPHICAL HISTORY OF PENGUINS (SPHENISCIFORMES): REVIEW OF THE DISPERSAL PATTERNS AND ADAPTATIONS IN A GEOLOGIC AND PALEOECOLOGICAL CONTEXT

Despite its current low diversity, the penguin clade (Sphenisciformes) is one of the groups of birds with the most complete fossil record.Likewise, from the evolutionary point of view, it is an interesting group given the adaptations developed for marine life and the extreme climatic occupation capacity that some species have shown.In the present c

In this paper, we take the resting T cells into account and interpret the progression and regression of tumors by a predator-prey like tumor-immune system.First, we construct an appropriate Lyapunov function to prove the existence and uniqueness of the global positive solution to the system.Then, Voice Recorders by utilizing the stochastic comparis

Material obtained from the demolition of concrete structures and milling of flexible pavements has the highest potential for recyclability.This study aimed to evaluate the performance of hot mix asphalt with the concurrent use of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled concrete aggregate (RCA).Contents of RAP and RCA were varied from 0% to 50%

Residual stresses are often inevitably introduced into the material during the fabrication processes, such as welding, and are known to have significant effects on the subsequent fatigue crack growth behavior of welded structures.In this paper, the importance of welding sequence on residual stress distribution in engineering components has Pancake

A fundamental challenge in virology research lies in effectively detecting malicious code.N-gram analysis has become a cornerstone technique, but selecting the most informative features, especially for longer n-grams, remains crucial for efficient detection.This paper addresses this challenge by introducing a novel feature extraction method STOP CO
