Plagues of the house mouse (Mus musculus) occur at irregular intervals throughout the agricultural regions of south-eastern Australia. This paper discusses these phenomena in terms of their impact on agricultural production, previous attempts to reduce damage and levels of infestation, and associated environmental implications. Consideration is also given to the accurate prediction of mouse pla...

Herein, the microstructure stability of a newly developed hot‐working die (HWD700) steel at elevated temperatures up to 700 °C is investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected‐area diffraction, energy‐dispersive spectrometer, and high‐resolution microscope. The results show that HWD700 exhibits higher thermal than commercial H13 when temperature °C. After quenching temperi...

By means of a computational model, we study the relation between two complementary views of gelation, rheological tests against the characterization of a network of consecutive particles. The model we propose consists of slender, plane, colloidal sized particles, which we name laths, which self-assemble into long ordered aggregates of several particles; called whiskers in the literature. Within...

This paper examines downward price rigidity in Iranian house market and discusses whether this characteristic would result in an asymmetric relationship between house price and monetary policy. To test the downward house price rigidity the threshold GARCH model is employed. The asymmetric adjustment to monetary policy is examined using the asymmetric cointegration and error correction models. T...
