Genetic Improvement of Christmas Trees
While seed source selection is an important initial step in the genetic improvement of Christmas trees, continuously returning to seed collections from natural stands precludes any further improvement in genetic quality. In addition, the genetic variation within most seed sources is tremendous and varies from year to year. In order for the Christmas tree industry to move past the current level ...
متن کاملCracking in drying latex films.
Thin films of latex dispersions containing particles of high glass transition temperature generally crack while drying under ambient conditions. Experiments with particles of varying radii focused on conditions for which capillary stresses normal to the film deform the particles elastically and generate tensile stresses in the plane of the film. Irrespective of the particle size, the drying fil...
متن کاملMaps of the stress distributions in drying latex films.
We report on spatially resolved measurements of the mechanical stress in drying polymer films. The technique is based on the deflection of a flexible membrane serving as the substrate. Assuming that the lateral tension of the membrane is the main source of its resistance to deformation, one can show that the local surface stress sigma f (x,y) is proportional to the vertical displacement of the ...
متن کاملLateral surface non-uniformities in drying latex films
The length scales of film thickness non-uniformities, commonly observed in polymer colloid (i.e. latex) films, are predicted. This prediction is achieved by investigating the stability behaviour of drying latex films. A linear stability analysis is performed on a base solution representing a uniformly drying latex film containing a surfactant. The analysis identifies film thickness non-uniformi...
متن کاملForecasting of Cut Christmas Trees with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)
The establishment of Christmas tree plantations over the last 50 years in Greece has provided an additional income for the inhabitants of certain mountainous and semi-mountainous regions of the country and contributed to their development. In this paper is used a neural network which combined with ARIMA which makes forecast of number of actually cut Christmas trees until the year 2015.
