Land use and land cover (LULC) change analysis is a critical instrument for studying urban growth across the world.Our objectives were to produce historical LULC maps during the 1988–2016 period for spatial and temporal analysis, forecast future LULC until 2040 by using the Markov model, and identify the impact of LULC on urbanization.Two sce
The aim of the paper is to experimentally measure and ealuate bulk modulus of oil/steel isidor oreiller pipe system and oil/hose system.The measurement was performed using experimental device on the basis of a measured pressure difference depending on time.Bulk modulus is evaluated from pressure change with known flow and volume of line.Pressure ri
Based on the concepts of “word-of-mouth” effect and viral marketing, the diffusion of an innovation may be triggered starting from a set of initial users.Estimating the influence spread is a preliminary step to determine a suitable or even optimal set of initial users to reach a given goal.In this paper, we focus on a stochastic model
Traditional knowledge concerning plant utilization in the Philippines is common but is largely underappreciated.Assessment of plant resources by groups of people helps promote valorization of cultural heritage.However, particularly in the Camiguin Is-landof the North, Cagayan (not to be confused with the island province of Camiguin in Mindanao), th
