Toward an Integrated Physiological Theory of Microbial Growth: From Subcellular Variables to Population Dynamics by Atul Narang, Sergei S. Pilyugin

“…We presentthese physiological models in the order of increasing complexity.Thus, we begin with models of single-species growth in environmentscontaining a single growth-limiting substrate, then advance to modelsof single-species growth in mixed-substrate media, and conclude withmodels of multiple-species growth in mixed-substrate environments.Throughout the paper, we discuss both the analytical and simulationtechniques to illustrate how these models capture and explain variousexperimental phenomena. …”

Building Spectral Element Dynamic Matrices Using Finite Element Models of Waveguide Slices and Elastodynamic Equations by P.B. Silva, A.L. Goldstein, J.R.F. Arruda

“…These spectral elements can be used to model homogeneous waveguides with constant cross section over long spans without the need of refining the finite element mesh along the waveguide. As an illustrating example, spectral elements are derived for straight uniform rods and beams and used to calculate the forced response in the longitudinal and transverse directions. …”

Investigation and evaluation of palygorskite microstructure following acid pretreatment and its potential use as an adsorbent for copper by Ahmed Flayyih Hussein, Mayssaa Ali Al-Bidry, Asawer A. AL Wasiti

“…Different analytical techniques were used: scanning electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, particle size distribution, and zeta potential. Results illustrated that acetic acid effectively dispersed fibre aggregates, creating voids within the fibrous structure and reducing particle size while keeping the shape of the fiber. …”

Entre sacrificios y esperanzas: análisis de conflictos socioambientales en Bogotá desde una perspectiva de ecología política by Mariluz Nova Laverde, Milton Piñeros Fuentes, Jaime Edison Rojas Mora

“…The socio-environmental justice index reveals significant disparities in the distribution of socio-economic and ecological conditions between rural and urban areas, while the documentation of experiences showcases innovative strategies of collective action by diverse communities with hybrid identities, who propose alternative ways of living and being rooted in the recovery of ancestral knowledge and peasant traditions. This is illustrated through work with the Asopasquillita peasant association, which is committed to healing and caring for the land. …”
