To better understand the source–sink flow and its relationships with zinc (Zn) other nutrients in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants for biofortification improving grain nutritional quality, effects of reducing photoassimilate source (through flag leaf removal spike shading) or sink all spikelets from one side spike, i.e., 50% removal) field accumulation Zn grains two cultivars (Jimai 22 Jimai...

In this paper the variation of the propagation constant, the attenuation coefficient, penetration depth inside the metal and the dielectric has been evaluated. The propagation characteristics of Surface Plasmon Waves (SPWs) which exists on noble metals like gold (Au), silver (Ag) and aluminium (Al) due to the formation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs), have been evaluated theoretically and ...

Estimates of adult body mass are usually considered as equivalent mean population size in most studies ancient mammals. However, given that any is composed part subadult individuals, this approach overestimates the and biomass. For reason, more realistic estimates should be used. In paper, we: 1) test five different proxies mass; 2) estimate total prey biomass paleoecosystems from Orce Atapuerc...

|Based on a simpliied nonlinear lumped element model of the electrodynamic loudspeaker, three nonlinear controllers are derived, simulated and implemented on a DSP. First the Volterra series expansion, a well known functional expansion to model nonlinear systems, is used to derive an open-loop controller to cancel out nonlinearities. Second method is based on direct inversion of the nonlinear p...

A6struct-32 kb/s Adaptive Differential Pulse Coded Modulation (ADPCM) is a widely accepted high quality speech coding algorithm. Single chip devices exist for 32 kb/s ADPCM. "his algorithm requires a relatively large bandwidth and does not perform exceptionally well in noisy wireless environments, The 16 kb/s lowdelay code escited linear prediction (LD-CELP) coding algoritbm does perform well i...
