This paper presents the lubrication characteristics between a bush and a blade of a swing compressor that was developed for a new type of compressor for an air conditioner using alternative refrigerants. The mixed lubrication analysis that simultaneously solved the motion equations of the bush and the blade, the lubrication equation and the rough surface contact equation was performed. Moreover...

Use of herbal remedies from medicinal plants (bush medicines) was studied in 622 people with diabetes mellitus attending 17 government health centers on the island of Trinidad, Trinidad and Tobago. Bush medicines were used by 42% of patients surveyed and were used for diabetes by 24%. Bush medicine use was more frequent in Afro-Trinidadians and in those of mixed ethnicity than in Indo-Trinidadi...

Increasing Australian bush-fire frequencies over the last decade has indicated a major climatic change in coming future. Understanding such climatic change for Australian bush-fire is limited and there is an urgent need of scientific research, which is capable enough to contribute to Australian society. Frequency of bush-fire carries information on spatial, temporal and climatic aspects of bush...

Bush bean is an important pulse crop that enriches the Rwandan diet and a source of cash. This staple widely grown in Rwanda. However, improper spacing inadequate application rates organic inputs result low yields. The purpose this study was to evaluate effect intra-row-spacing pymarc rate on selected soil chemical parameters bush (Phaseolus Vulgaris L) yield andosol under rainfed conditions. e...

Abstract Wemake explicit the geometric content of Mel’nikov’s method for detecting heteroclinic points between transversally hyperbolic periodic orbits. After developing the general theory of intersections for pairs of family of Lagrangian submanifolds N ε , with N + 0 = N − 0 constrained to live in an auxiliary family of submanifolds, we explain how the heteroclinic orbits are detected by the ...

This study analyzes smallholder farmers’ decisions to adopt beans with higher levels of dietary iron developed through a conventional breeding technique called biofortification. We approach this by applying spatial econometric techniques estimate neighborhood influence and determine the factors driving adoption iron-biofortified (IBB). employ cross-sectional, nationally representative survey be...
