How and why to study mountains: topics and types of research between limits and opportunities by Laura Bonato

“…Based on the experience gained in three different projects involving the western Alpine arc over the last decade, we intend to highlight the fact that in some contexts it is appropriate to prefer ‘peripheral’ anthropological research, less localised and based on shorter stays. …”

Histopathological Characterization of a Series of Oral Basaloid Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Neetu Jain, Toniya Raut, Shashi Keshwar, Ashish Shrestha, Mehul Rajesh Jaisani, Deepak Paudel

“…Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) is a rare, distinctive, and aggressive variant of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) primarily seen in the upper aerodigestive tract with epiglottis, soft palate, and base of the tongue being site of high preference in head and neck region. It differs from conventional SCC histologically and immunologically, is most frequently found in males in their sixth and seventh decades, and is frequently linked to alcohol and tobacco use. …”

Mathematical analysis for simulation of incompressible fluid flow by Rômulo Damasclin Chaves dos Santos, Jorge Henrique de Oliveira Sales

“… The omnipresence and complexity of physical phenomena drive the strong search for tools capable of simulating them, since many applications require computationally viable, reliable and, preferably, low-cost simulations. Thus, a priori, this work has two objectives: i) understand the theoretical foundations of fluid dynamics with an important computational method aimed at simulating incompressible flows, called SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic), which will subsequently be implemented; and ii) assist in the consolidation and application of key concepts in mathematical analysis for computer simulation. …”
