Towards AMR Simulations of Galaxy Formation
… our findings to those obtained with the FLASH AMR code and find excellent agreement. Chapter 6 presents work in which we unambiguously determine the origin of the difference between the entropy cores formed in AMR and SPH codes. By running mergers of model clusters we are able to systematically …

Autonóm Mobil Robotok (AMR) pályatervezése és tájékozódása ipari környezetben
… a gyárak területi elrendezésétől függően. Az AMR robotok önálló működésre képes, mobil járművek, amelyek képesek a rakodási műveleteket is végrehajtani. A működéséhez SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technológiára van szükség, amely egyidejű lokalizációt és térképezést jelent. …

Development of an AMR Octree DSMC approach for shock dominated flows
… an Octree based adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) that gives flexibility in capturing multi-scale physics. It is coupled with a robust cut-cell algorithm to incorporate complex triangulated geometries. With the use of distributed memory systems and Message-Passing-Interface (MPI) for …

Qu'ranic exegesis and thematic coherence : comparing the approaches of Amr Khalid and Amin Islahi.
This dissertation investigates how Amr Khālid, internationally renowned Muslim preacher, achieves thematic coherence in the Qur’ān. It then compares his approach to Amīn Iṣlāḥī (d. 1997), an exegete known for his Qur’ānic commentary, “Pondering Over the Qur’ān” (Tadabbur-e-Qur’ān). The research …

Factors contributing to AMR occurrence in infectious agents of broiler chickens in selected districts in Zambia.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has remained one of the growing public health problems globally. The misuse and abuse of antimicrobials in agriculture, veterinary, and human medicine have been described as major contributing factors for the emergence of AMR. Globally, it is estimated that …

Mejora de un código hidrodinámico con transporte de radiación en malla adaptativa refinada (AMR) y su aplicación a los láseres de rayos X
Seeding experiments achieved with gas amplifiers demonstrated high quality X ray beams. Since amplifiers based on solid targets are denser than those generated from gas, higher energy and shorter pulse durations were expected. However, experiments demonstrated lower energy around 90 nJ and slightly …

Epidemiology of antimicrobial resistance at the livestock-human interface in an urban environment: a One Health approach
… as a reservoir for antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria that may spread to humans, with the keeping of livestock widely postulated as a risk factor for AMR in humans. However, quantitative evidence of the role of livestock in the emergence and transmission of AMR bacteria to human …

A gene-space de Bruijn graph framework for improved genotyping of antimicrobial resistance genes
Identifying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria is critical for surveillance and clinical diagnosis. Conventional antimicrobial susceptibility testing involves culturing isolates and measuring growth across antimicrobial concentration gradients. However, this approach is slow and may yield …

A genomic investigation into gastrointestinal antimicrobial resistance and clinical infection in patients undergoing transplantation
… antimicrobial-resistant bloodstream infections (AMR-BSIs) claim 1.5 million lives annually. High-resolution sequencing data allows us to derive novel insights into AMR-BSIs. Immunosuppressed patients have a disrupted gut microbiome; therefore, transplant recipients provide an ideal reservoir for …

The potential of antimicrobial resistance diagnostics to inform prudent antimicrobial use in feedlot cattle: dynamic models as tools for optimizing interventions in bovine respiratory disease
… pathogens; emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens the therapeutic efficacy of available antimicrobials, leading to treatment failures, production losses and food insecurity. Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is the primary reason for injectable antimicrobial use (AMU) in Canadian …

Environmental and biological drivers of bacterial and antimicrobial resistance carriage by house flies (Musca domestica L.)
… of pathogenic and antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria between environments visited for these reproductive and trophic needs. Confined cattle operations serve as an optimal environment to study fly-mediated pathogen and AMR acquisition, transmission and persistence due to the high …

From gut microbiome to pathogen genomics: Understanding antimicrobial resistance in Southeast Asia and Salmonella Paratyphi A
… as a reservoir for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. This thesis firstly investigated the gut microbiome of a healthy Southeast Asian population, focusing on AMR gene circulation and the public health risks it poses. Additionally, the genomics and AMR mechanisms of Salmonella Paratyphi A, …

The Role of the Poultry Litter Resistome in the Transmission of Antimicrobial Resistance to Salmonella
… leads to spill over of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) into the general population. Animal manures contain a large and diverse reservoir of AMR genes. While poultry litter is a rich source of nitrogen, it contains an abundance of AMR genes and genetic elements associated with its dissemination. …

Pinnipeds as sentinels of antimicrobial resistance: mapping antimicrobial resistance genes in the waters of the United Kingdom
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a continual and growing threat to human and animal health. There is a lack of information about environmental reservoirs of AMR, many of which feed into the marine habitat. Pinnipeds are often used as sentinels of ocean health because they are long lived, apex …

Biogenic silver nanoparticles synthesized using eucomis autumnalis bulb aqueous extract, their characterization and in vitro antibacterial activity
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global problem that poses a significant threat to public health. AMR arises when microorganisms become resistant to drugs that were initially designed to kill them. The application of antibiotics has proven effective in eliminating or inhibiting the …

Measuring the abundance, diversity and overlap of Antimicrobial Resistance genes associated with humans, livestock and the environment in low- and middle-income country settings
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest threats to infectious disease management and is also challenging UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) in achieving health, food security and environmental well-being. Conventional AMR assessment techniques involve phenotypic …

Adaptive mesh refinement for computational aeroacoustics
… block-structured adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) method that is employed to solve some computational aeroacoustic problems with the aim of improving the computational efficiency. AMR adaptively refines and coarsens a computational mesh along with sound propagation to increase grid resolution …

Agent-based modeling to address emerging threats from antimicrobial resistance to the sustainability of the beef industry
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health concern for both human and animal health. The rise in AMR has led to increased scrutiny of antimicrobial use (AMU) in feedlot cattle. With rising concern for prudent AMU in the beef industry, it is essential to understand the potential impact …
