Tsunamis are seismic killer waves that originate from oceanic waters. The waves have excessively long wavelengths that displace massive water from the ocean to cause detrimental effects on the coastlines. Destroying plant life and property in form of house structures and ships is common havoc caused by tsunamis(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (U.S.), 2004)....Read More

Exposure Routes and Effects Types of Effects Local Effects It is when a hazard or chemical affects a specific part of the body without being absorbed into the blood system. The chemical or hazard only acts one level of the body. Systematic Effects It is when a chemical or a hazard affects the whole body...Read More

have gained a lot by reading the article because I have come to learn many things about design guidelines and how to maintain and take care of green roofs. The vast knowledge that I have gained from the article will be very helpful to me in the future given that this is my area of...Read More

Sun-Root System, which is one of the latest achievements in sustainable technology, has several benefits. Its vegetation helps in the reduction of rooftop temperature, it does not penetrate the roof membrane, a minimum of 250 watts is produced per Sun-Root, it is supported by solar energy, the 30 degrees angle of attachment enables maximum power...Read More

Newton’s law of motion is applied in explaining the whiplash trauma and the consequent injuries when a body that is at rest state is acted upon by the external and unbalanced forces. According to Newton’s first law, every object and, in this case, the human body is explained to be remaining in a state of...Read More

I studied physics in my undergraduate degree. I was introduced into laser beam propagation, nonlinear optics and laser application. At this point in time, I could not understand some of the concepts discussed in class by the lecturer. My aspirations to continues and further my study in this field were raised a notch higher after...Read More

After the end of the World Wars, many scholars came together to establish the causes of the war. While many perspectives have been posited, three stand out; realist, neoliberal, and identity perspectives. This paper explores how individual, national, and international forces came to influence the war as explained through these perspectives. The realist perspective deals...Read More

Single molecules have abilities to probe molecular structure, its dynamics, and functions which are not hindered by the averaging inherent in ensemble experiments. In the ensemble experiments, molecules are interrogated simultaneously and their properties observed. There are various research projects carried out by ensembles. First is transporting fluid-state DOPC vesicles at significant velocities. Secondly is...Read More

The expansion of the universe is the idea explained to be behind the big Bang theory. The universe is said to have been initially a small portion of about few millimetres across 14 million years ago. It since expanded from a hot, dense state it was in, to today the cooler universe we live in.The...Read More

There are certain major characteristics that are desirable for multifunctional electronic like scaling and sensing among others. The most desirable are ultrathin semiconductors with surfaces that are atomically smooth. So far, the desired material is a 2D material with same characteristics as those of Graphene but with reasonably large bandgap.A Graphene has one atomic layer...Read More
