The water relations play a fundamental role in seed comprehension of biology. In order to describe the process of drying and the effect on water activity, which controls biological change in storage, a sound knowledge of the relationship between equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and water activity/equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) is essential. The relationship between the total moisture con...

Induction sensors (also known as search coils), because of their measuring principle, are dedicated to varying magnetic field measurement. Despite the disadvantage of their size, induction magnetometer remains indispensable in numerous fields due to their sensitivity and robustness whether for natural electromagnetic waves analysis on Earth Lichtenberger et al. (2008), geophysics studies using ...

This paper presents a new algorithm FRiS-GRAD of simultaneous informative attributes selection and decision rule construction. This algorithm is based on Function of Rival Similarity (FRiS-function) measuring similarity of objects with standards of rival patterns. Standards or representatives are the objects of training dataset which are the most similar to all other objects of their patterns. ...

This article deals with the simulation of the sport small arms trigger mechanisms. A right function of the trigger mechanism is an important factor, which influences a shooting accuracy. It is needful to simulate a trigger mechanism function to achieve a right design parameter values. From point of view a physic analysis: the trigger mechanisms are the specific part of the solid figures, which ...

The original vision of psychiatry was as a medicine - or physic - of the mind. If psychiatry aspires to be a progressive modern medicine of the mind, it should be fully engaged with the science of the brain. We summarise and rebut three countervailing or 'neurophobic' propositions and aim to show that not one provides a compelling argument for neurophobia. We suggest that there are several ways...

The Bessel polynomials are the unique polynomial solutions, with constant equal to 1, of the differential equation xy ′′ (x) + (2x+ 2)y ′ (x) − n(n+ 1)y(x) = 0 (1) They are important in certain problems of mathematical physic, for example they arise in the study of electrical networks and when the wave equation is considered on spherical coordinates. Many application may be found in [7]. In rec...

A series of tris (α-naphthyl) bismuth (V) carboxylates (α-C10H7)3Bi(OCOR)2 where OCOR = p-trifluoromethyl mandelate, pmethoxy mandelate, salicylate, 2pyrazine carboxylate, mandelate have been synthesised and characterised by solid state infrared, H and C NMR spectroscopy, molecular weight and conductance measurements. The newly synthesized derivatives are monomeric in benzene and non ionic in a...

Green coconut water is traditionally consumed fresh, directed from the fruit at production regions. In order to allow its consumption in other regions, its industrialization demands a conservation process able to maintain its physic-chemical and sensory characteristics. Pasteurization is the main technique used for beverage preservation and microbiological safety. On the other side, membrane te...
