in this experiment six healthy adult dairy jersey cattles and eight calves (aged 4-6 months) were selected to measure temperature of different body skin sites, rectal temperature, respiration and heart rates during summer and winter. body sites maximum and minimum temperature in calves during summer belonged to the ear, forehead, right flank, abdomen (38.4-38.9 ˚c) and carpus (32 ˚c). this was ...

The induction of stem frost hardiness by low temperature, water stress, short days, and their combinations in 2- and 4-month-old growing dogwoods (Cornus stolonifera) were investigated. When plants were subjected to more than one factor, the increased hardiness was the sum of the effects of the individual factors involved. No interactions among these factors on hardiness were observed during a ...

in order to investigate deformation history preserved in the calcite twins in the hinterland of zagros, several samples have been collected from calcschists of the paleozoic sargaz complex in the faryab area, se iran. these samples are related to f1-recumbent folding and thrust shear zones. the twin width is about 1 and 3.8 µm (thin-twin regime); the twin strain amounts 5 and 10%; twin intensit...

temperature is an importan environmental factor that inevitably determines the extent and geographical range of plants. in this study, the chilling induced responses of 11 desi chickpea genotypes were surveyed under growth chamber conditions to screen for chilling tolerance. electrolyte leakage (el) and lipid peroxidization (malondialdehide (mda)) methods were employed for the purpose. data ana...

The work reported in this dissertation is intended to propose, analyze and demonstrate a technology for a high temperature integrated power electronics module, for high temperature (e.g those over 200C) applications involving high density and low stress. To achieve this goal, this study has examined some existing packaging approaches, such as wire-bond interconnects and solder die-attach, flip-...

Crystallization of a-Ge was performed on flexible plastic substrates at temperatures as low as 130 8C. Copper has been primarily used as the seed of crystallization, while an external stress was applied onto the flexible substrate to enhance the crystallization. The substrates used for this study were mainly 0.1 mm thick Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films, which remain flexible during post ...
