in order to determine traits which affected grain yield in optimal irrigation and terminal drought deficit conditions, a field experiments with 16 spring bread wheat genotypes as randomized complete block design with three replications conducted in neishabour during 2009-10 cropping seasons. results of combined analysis of variance showed, significant differences between many of traits vegetati...

copper smelting slags are hard materials. therefore,to recover their copper by flotation method, grinding should be carried out to obtain optimal particle size. copper smelting slags in the bardeskan district, with work index of 16.24 kwh/st, were grinded for 65 minutes to reach an acceptable degree of freedom for the flotation tests, with particle size of 80%, smaller than 70 μm. with this gri...

A 4D-Var data assimilation technique is applied to a ORCA-2 configuration of the NEMO in order to identify the optimal parametrization of the boundary conditions on the lateral boundaries as well as on the bottom and on the surface of the ocean. The influence of the boundary conditions on the solution is analyzed as in the assimilation window and beyond the window. It is shown that optimal cond...

Necessary conditions of optimality, in the form of a maximum principle, are derived for a class of optimal control problems, certain of whose controls are represented by measures and whose state trajectories are functions of bounded variation. State trajectories are interpreted as robust solutions of the dynamic equations, a concept of solutions which takes account of the interaction between th...

Plasma membrane preparations of high purity (about 95%) are easily obtained by partitioning in aqueous polymer two-phase systems. These preparations, however, mainly contain sealed right-side-out (apoplastic side out) vesicles. Part of these vesicles have been turned inside-out by freezing and thawing, and sealed inside-out and right-side-out vesicles subsequently separated by repeating the pha...

Optimal transformation of Azotobacter vinelandii OP required a 20-min incubation of the competent cells with deoxyribonucleic acid at 30 degrees C in buffer (pH 6.0 to 8.0) containing 8 mM magnesium sulfate. Nitrogen-fixing transformants of nitrogen fixation-deficient recipients could be plated immediately on selective medium, but transformants acquiring rifampin and streptomycin resistance req...

Cluster Editing is the problem of turning a graph into a cluster graph, that is, a disjoint union of cliques, by a minimum number of edge edits. Cluster Deletion is similarly defined, with edge deletions only. We propose a local notion of edit-optimality: Informally, we say that a crown (a certain type of labeled graph) is edit-optimal if it yields a cluster in some optimal solution to Cluster ...

In this paper, we begin with an approach to non-termination inference of logic programs. Our framework relies on an extension of the Lifting Theorem, where some specific argument positions can be instantiated while others are generalized. Atomic left looping queries are generated bottom-up from selected subsets of the binary unfoldings of the program of interest. Then non-termination inference ...
