Background: Working in direct contact with mass casualties is stressful.Studies on the impact of exposure to mass casualties over a prolonged period of time are sparse due to logistical reasons.The current paper studies the impacts of prolonged conflict and exposure to mass casualties among Iraqi health professionals in Kirkuk.Method: The Depressio
In this paper we propose a new level set approach to describe not only a flame's surface but also to the flame's spatial distribution.First, we derived the mathematical formulation for a one-dimensional laminar premixed flame, where the steady flame has a finite thickness depending on the diffusion flux whose physical quantity such as tem
Machine learning (ML) has been utilized to predict climatic parameters, and many successes have been reported in the literature.In this paper, we scrutinize the effectiveness of five widely used ML algorithms in the monthly prediction of seasonal climatic parameters using monthly image data.Specifically, we quantify the predictive performance of th
Coronaviruses are positive sense, single-stranded, enveloped, and non-segmented RNA viruses that belong to the Coronaviridae family within the order Nidovirales and suborder Coronavirinae.Two Alphacoronavirus strains: HCoV-229E and HCoV-NL63 and five Betacoronaviruses: HCoV-HKU1, HCoV-OC43, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 have so far been recogn
