CLINICAL, VIROLOGICAL AND EPIDEMIOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF AN OUTBREAK OF TESTUDINID HERPESVIRUS 3 IN A CHELONIAN CAPTIVE BREEDING FACILITY: LESSONS LEARNED AND FIRST EVIDENCE OF TEHV3 VERTICAL TRANSMISSION.

Clinical, virological and epidemiological characterization of an outbreak of Testudinid Herpesvirus 3 in a chelonian captive breeding facility: Lessons learned and first evidence of TeHV3 vertical transmission.

Testudinid herpesviruses (TeHVs) have a worldwide distribution among tortoises.However, information such as risk factors promoting the occurrence or the recrudescence of the associated disease and the mid-term sequelae of an outbreak comprising the extent and dynamic of the viral shedding have been only minimally investigated.Critical management in

Large Eddy Simulation with Energy-Conserving Schemes and the Smagorinsky Model: A Note on Accuracy and Computational Efficiency

Despite advances in turbulence modelling, the Smagorinsky model remains a popular choice for large eddy simulation (LES) due to its simplicity and ease of use.The dissipation in turbulence energy that the model introduces, is proportional to the Smagorinsky constant, of which many different values have been proposed.These values have been derived f
