Masonry refers to the construction of structures from distinct units placed and bound together. It can be characterized as the arrangement of various materials in various ways with or without mortar. Modern masonry involves constructing buildings using modern materials such as concrete-block joists, concrete slabs, and walls made of pressed bricks, cement blocks, perlite, tiles, stones, and glass blocks. The most popular masonry materials used...

Amides are functional groups in which a carbonyl carbon atom is linked by a single bond to a nitrogen atom, and either a hydrogen or a carbon atom. The general formula of amide is RC (=O)NR, R", where R, R', and R" represent organic groups or hydrogen atoms. Some common examples of amides are benazamide, acetamide, nylon, paracetamol and dimethylformamide. The amide bond is found in many naturally occurring and synthetic compounds. There are s...

Geoheritage refers to a unique set of natural resources characterized by sites of special geological significance, beauty or rarity that are specific to a region and of its geological history, events and processes. These include sites of archaeological, architectonic and historical significance. Geotourism is an emerging form of sustainable tourism concerned with sustaining or enhancing the distinctive geographical features of a place, includi...

Tourism can have unfavorable effects on the environment such as excessive consumption and overutilization of resources, damage to wildlife, and increased emission of greenhouse gases. Sustainable tourism plays an important role in the long-term viability of the tourism industry in order to ensure that the present generations' requirements do not have any ill effects on the requirements of the future generations.

The general theory of relativity, also called the Einstein's theory of gravity and the general relativity theory, is the geometric theory of gravitation. It provides the description of gravity as a geometric property of space and time. There are several astrophysical applications of the general theory of relativity including gravitational lensing, cosmology, gravitational-wave astronomy, and black holes. The theory of general relativity forms ...

Fluid refers to a state of matter wherein the matter yields to sideways or shearing forces. Gases, plasmas and liquids are considered to be fluids. They can be found in stationary as well as moving forms. The physics of stationary fluids is studied under fluid statics, whereas fluid mechanics is a branch of physics involved in the study of mechanics related with fluids and the forces they generate. It has applications in many fields such as me...

An electric vehicle (EV) refers to a type of vehicle that utilizes one or more electric motors for propulsion.
