Investigation of Mechanical Properties of Banana, Linen and Their Hybrid Reinforced Composite Laminates in Adverse Condition and Analyze Using ML
Abstract: This research investigates the mechanical performance of composite laminates reinforced with banana and linen fibers, focusing on both individual and hybrid fiber combinations. The primary objective is to assess how these natural fiber composites behave under extreme environmental conditions, particularly high humidity and fluctuating temperatures, which are common in aerospace and automotive applications.Key mechanical properties—tensile strength, flexural strength, and impact resistance—are experimentally evaluated to assess the performance and long-term reliability …

Demodex spp. (Acari: Demodicidae) Infestation in Humans: Diagnostic Clues and Therapeutic Approaches to Primary and Secondary Demodicosis.
Abstract: Demodicosis represents an inflammatory dermatosis and adnexal disorder arising from pathologic overgrowth of Demodex mites, primarily Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis, which are ubiquitous human ectoparasites residing in pilosebaceous units and eyelid margins. Once regarded as benign commensals, these mites are now recognized as primary drivers or key cofactors in diverse clinical phenotypes, including papulopustular eruptions, pityriasis folliculorum, rosacea-like disorders, blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, and exacerbations of comorbid dermatoses such …
