Scratch-induced disruption of cultured monolayers induces polarity in front row cells that can be visualized by spatially localized polymerization of actin at the front of the cell and reorientation of the centrosome/Golgi to face the leading edge. We previously reported that centrosomal reorientation and microtubule polarization depend on a Cdc42-regulated signal transduction pathway involving...

The concept of precision agriculture, which proposes farming management adapted to crop variability, has emerged in recent years. To effectively implement precision agriculture, data must be gathered from the field in an automated manner at minimal cost. In this study, a small autonomous field inspection vehicle was developed to minimise the impact of the scouting on the crop and soil compactio...

Direct numerical simulations are used to investigate the method of film cooling in a laminar flat-plate Mach-2.67 boundary layer. Air is employed as mean-flow and coolant gas and is injected into an adiabatic or isothermal boundary layer through one or two rows of staggered, discrete holes. Previous simulations were performed using a modeled blowing approach, where the mass flux and temperature...

This study analyzes dental metric variation to examine the biological structure of the native population at Mission San Luis de Apalachee, a late 17th century mission located in the Apalachee Province of Spanish colonial Florida. Three topics are addressed: (1) comparison of tooth sizes among adult and subadults, (2) analysis of the bio-spatial structure of skeletons within the church area, and...

Quenching cooling rate of rotary hollow cylinder by one row of water impinging jets has been experimentally studied. Water jets (d = 8 mm) with sub-cooling 55 to 85 ◦C and Reynolds number 8,006 to 36,738 impinged over rotary hot hollow cylinder (rotation speed 10 to 70 rpm) with initial temperature 250 to 600 ◦C. Impingement impact angle of row of jets varied between 0 to 135 ◦ and jet-to-jet s...

The knowledge of the physical characteristics of women rugby union players, is scarce and, due to the evolution of this sport in the recent years, it is also dated. This study was aimed to provide up to date normative data on selected, laboratory-based, physiological and anthropometric characteristics of elite women players of the northern hemisphere. A selection (i.e. only the players regularl...

Front line demonstration was conducted on drum seeding technology the farmers, assessment of seeder implement done with assistance Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kampasagar, Nalgonda under Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University, for consequently three years during Kharif, from 2018-19 to 2020-21. The comparison made between and manual transplanting an objective reduction cost cult...
