Due to their promising applications and intriguing characteristics, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can be dispatched as flying base stations serve multiple energy-constrained Internet-of-Things (IoT) sensors. Moreover, ensure fresh data collection while providing sustainable energy support a large set of IoT devices, required number UAVs should deployed carry out these two tasks efficiently pr...

Fresh mushroom compost is a byproduct of the edible mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) industry and represents the composted growing substrate that remains after a crop has been harvested to completion. Thirty samples were obtained from commercial mushroom farms in southeastern Pennsylvania and sent to a laboratory for analysis to determine plant nutrient content, bulk density, and particle size dist...

The petroleum industry requires the best materials to reverse the rock wettability to water-wet state which give significantly improved oil recovery.Nanoparticles are suggested as enhanced oil recovery potential agents to decrease viscosity and alter the wettability of reservoir towards more water-wet. This study provides new insights into CuO nanoparticles effects on wett...

Wet belly, when the reindeer becomes wet over the lower parts of the thorax and abdomen, sometimes occurs in reindeer during feeding. In a feeding experiment, 11 out of 69 reindeer were affected by wet belly. The problem was first observed in 7 animals during a period of restricted feed intake. When the animals were then fed standard rations, 3 additional animals fed only silage, and 1 fed pell...

the ultra-nanocrystalline diamond (uncd) was synthesized by the detonation of a high explosive mixture in water confinement. the presence of a diamond phase was revealed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). x-ray line broadening (xrlb) was used to evaluate the peak profiles of diamond nanoparticles and their corresponding average crystallite sizes. the micro st...
