Landslides caused by rainfall are one of the most frequent causes Slippers of disasters in tropical countries and mountainous terrain and can block rivers generating landslide dams.This paper presents a methodology for the estimation of the obstruction of water streams generated by rainfall-induced shallow landslides.The spatial distribution of the
Conducting polymer 3D microelectrodes have been fabricated for possible future neurological applications.A combination of micro-fabrication techniques and chemical polymerization methods Lemonade has been used to create pillar electrodes in polyaniline and polypyrrole.The thin polymer films obtained showed uniformity and good adhesion to both horiz
