“…Indeed, this part of the globe experienced a temperature increase of 0.17 °C per decade between 1970 and 2004 [48]. Recently, several works have been devoted to the study of temperatures evoking global warming in recent decades in Benin [49][50][51]. According to the latest IPCC report [3], without an immediate and radical reduction in emissions in all sectors, it will be impossible for us to limit global warming to 1.5 °C, which is responsible for the climate change observed in the world.…”

Changes in the frequency and timing of extreme precipitation in southern Benin are assessed in the context of global warming. The peak-over-threshold (POT) is used for this purpose, with the six (06) year return period daily rainfall as the threshold over seventeen (17) weather stations between 1960 and 2018. The results show that the South Benin experienced extreme rainfall on many occasions between 1960 and 2018 with a nonuniform spatiotemporal distribution of this category of rainfall. No statistically significant trend in the frequency and variation of extreme rainfall intensities is revealed over the study period. Despite the low rate of extreme rainfall, the monthly trend is consistent with the bimodal rainfall regime in southern Benin. The global warming highlighted in its last decades in southern Benin is accompanied by a slightly upward trend in extreme rainfall compared to the period before 1990.

Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are a group of plasmid-mediated, diverse, complex and rapidly evolving enzymes that are posing a major therapeutic challenge today in the treatment of hospitalized and community-based patients. Enterobacteriaceae group is the main cause of bacterial infection and in this family Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species are the most common causes of nosocomial infections. ESBLs represents a major threat among multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria isolates. These ESBL producing pathogens are now recognized globally as major causes of nosocomial and community-acquired infections. ESBL detection is important from a therapeutic point of view and for infection control purposes. Carbapenems are often used to treat infections caused by ESBL producing E. coli and Klebsiella. This study was conducted in indoor patient department of Teerthanker Mahaveer Medical College & Research Centre, Moradabad, U.P., which is a tertiary care hospital. This study was conducted during the period from April 2015 to December 2017.A total no. of 350 gram negative Enterobacteriaceae were isolated in 800 no. of samples. They were screened for the beta-lactamase production. Among the 350 isolates 210 strains were ESBL producers. The major ESBL producers were E.coli (32%) followed by Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Proteus. Multidrug resistance to Fluoroquinolones and Aminoglycosides were observed in the ESBL producing organism. The most common ESBL producing organism were from ICU.

This work is based on a numerical study of the fluid-structure thermal coupling in a concrete slab intended for habitable heating. A rectangular cross-section pipe in which a hot fluid flow is installed in this concrete slab. The Navier-Stokes equations that govern this flow have been solved numerically. To this end, these equations have been discretized by an implicit finite difference method. The systems of algebraic equations thus obtained have been solved by the Gauss and Thomas algorithms. The conduction equation in the concrete slab was solved using the same methodology as that of flow. In fact, we have based on an algorithm that makes an unsteady solid medium interact with a fluid medium consisting of permanent states series while ensuring the equality of fluxes and temperatures on the common interface between both media at every moment. The numerical simulation of heat transfer and the thermal behavior of the heating slab were analyzed for different parameters influencing thermal diffusion. The results obtained by the numerical model adopted for the control of the fluid-structure coupling are in good agreement with those of the literature results.
