FIRST LOOK INTO THE EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY, PHYLOGEOGRAPHIC AND POPULATION GENETIC STRUCTURE OF THE DANUBE BARBEL IN CROATIA

First look into the evolutionary history, phylogeographic and population genetic structure of the Danube barbel in Croatia

The Danube barbel, Barbus balcanicus is small rheophilic freshwater fish, belonging to the genus Barbus which includes 23 species native to Europe.In Croatian watercourses, three members of the genus Barbus are found, B.balcanicus, B.barbus and B.plebejus, each occupying a specific ecological niche.This study examined cytochrome b (cyt b), a common

A Hybrid Chaotic-Based Multiobjective Differential Evolution Technique for Economic Emission Dispatch Problem

The economic emission dispatch problem (EEDP) is a nonconvex and nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problem in the power system field.Generally, fuel cost and total emissions of harmful gases are the problem objective functions.The EEDP decision variables are output powers of thermal generating units (TGUs).To make the EEDP problem more practica

Design study of a Martian rotor blade using a triangular airfoil

The Martian atmosphere is characterized by a low density and low speed of sound, which result in the low Reynolds number compressible flows.In this regime, conventional airfoils perform poorly due to the boundary layer separation and the formation of shack wave.The current paper investigates the hovering performance and the structure analysis of a

Dose outside of the prostate is associated with improved outcomes for high-risk prostate cancer patients treated with brachytherapy boost

BackgroundOne in three high-risk prostate cancer patients treated with radiotherapy recur.Detection of lymph node metastasis and microscopic disease spread using conventional imaging is poor, and many patients are under-treated due to suboptimal seminal vesicle or lymph node irradiation.We use Image Based Data Mining (IBDM) to investigate associati
