The study of knowledge has always been one of the central issues of the AI research. The general belief has been that "the more you have it the better you are." It was well understood that incorrect knowledge is harmful and should be avoided, but correct knowledge had been mostly considered beneficial. The potential harmfulness of correct knowledge received attention in very few early works but...

in the course of studies on population dynamics and spatial distribution of the tea cottony scale, pulvinaria floccifera (westwood) (hemi.: coccidae) in the tea gardens of tonekabon (west of mazandaran), in 2008-2009, infected cottony scales were found with hyphae and orange-flask shaped perithecia. they were grown separately on pca and kept under isolated conditions and in incubator at 24-25ºc...

We show the velocity solutions to the convective, skew-symmetric, and rotational Galerkin finite element formulations of the Navier-Stokes equations are identical if Scott-Vogelius elements are used, and thus all three formulations will the same pointwise divergence free solution velocity. A connection is then established between the formulations for grad-div stabilized Taylor-Hood elements: un...

A new apparatus for the study of vapor-liquid or vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium has been assembled. The apparatus, based on a static and analytical method, can perform measurements at temperatures from 185 to 320 K and pressures up to 8 MPa. The equilibrium vapor pressures of (xenon + methane) binary mixtures have been measured at seven temperatures, from 189.78 to 273.18 K, and at pressures u...

Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) forecasts of atmospheric moisture and cloud fraction (CF) are compared with observations at McMurdo and Amundsen–Scott South Pole station (hereafter, South Pole station) in Antarctica. Overall, it is found that the model produces excessive moisture at both sites in the midto upper troposphere because of a weaker vertical decrease of moisture in AMPS ...

The entomopathogenic fungal genus Lecanicillium Gams and Zare (formerly classified as the species Verticillium lecanii) includes that are highly pathogenic to many insect genera. In this study, we identified six Lecanicilliumspp. isolated strains (designated V1-V6) belonging L. lecanii (V1, V3 V5) attenuatum (V2, V4 V6). addition, these were used obtain new via protoplast fusion, nit mutants fo...
