ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of replacing 50% of the true protein from soybean meal with extruded urea on the performance and carcass characteristics of lambs finished on pasture. Twenty lam...

Solving optimal control problems serves as the basic demand of industrial control tasks. Existing methods like model predictive control often suffer from heavy online computational burdens. Reinforcement learning has sho...

Active metasurfaces designed to operate at optical frequencies are flat optical elements that can dynamic, subwavelength-scale wavefront control of reflected or transmitted light. The practical and fundamental power-hand...

Abstract Supplementation with folic acid (FA) during gestation has been recommended by medical society all over the world, but some studies have shown that intake of high folic acid diet may unleash damages to the descen...

Abstract This study analyzed the structure of social representations of an authoritarian regime in Brazil (Military Regime, 1964-1985), the variables associated with reporting different emotions about that past, and supp...

Abstract This article describes the use of a low-cost softwaredefined radio applied to an Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) test. The proposed system is indicated for cases when an autonomous instrument is better suite...

Abstract Cutting fluid is crucial in ensuring surface quality and machining accuracy during machining. However, traditional mineral oil-based cutting fluids no longer meet modern machining’s health and environmental pr...

This practice report argues that, in a higher education system where publication is a key performance metric, existing resources, such as textbooks, can be used and modified to make engaging and valuable professional dev...

Abstract Objective: To assess the maternal blood levels of fatty acids (FAs) in pregnancies with fetal growth restriction (FGR). Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study included pregnant women with gestational ...

The soft semi-totally continuous mappings that we have introduced in this study are stronger than the soft totally continuous mappings and provide fresh thoughts for soft continuous mappings between several soft topologi...

This study statistically examined the industrial cluster structure of four cities in the Tohoku region (Yonezawa, Koriyama, Iwaki, and Aizuwakamatsu) in terms of the relationship between each industry and the total value...

Abstract The current research of abrasive belt grinding rail mainly focuses on the contact mechanism and structural design. Compared with the closed structure abrasive belt grinding, open-structured abrasive belt grindin...

ABSTRACT An accurate diagnostic test for Helicobacter spp. infection in dogs is necessary but no gold standard diagnostic method has yet been established. The purpose of this study was to assess the sensitivity of conven...

The paper examines the forming of national academic communities in successor states and in the situation after the First World War when scholars (mainly those working in life sciences) participated in the scientific legi...

Software engineering always strives to develop and identify software pitfalls and errors before publishing the software product, in testing the software. Bugs can appear during any stage of development or testing, even a...

Background/Aim:Dental age estimation in adults is a challenging process due to the lack of sufficient information on the accuracy of dental methods applied in the identification of persons without information on identity...

A method for direct fabrication of 3D silver microstructures with high fabrication throughput on virtually any substrate is presented. The method is based on laser-induced photoreduction of silver ions to silver atoms, s...

Introduction Pain prevention and effective control is emphasized as a priority for the obstetric unit’s humanization. The therapeutic shower it’s an easy-to-deploy non-pharmacological alternative whose effectivenes...

Exceptional points (EPs) are degenerate singularities in a non-Hermitian system that can be induced by controlling the interaction between resonant photonic modes. EPs can enable unusual optical phenomena and significant...

Photonic metamaterials combined with liquid crystals (LCs) for tunability is a great niche for building miniature devices with high performance such as fast flat tunable lenses, tunable filters, and waveplates. Sub-wavel...

Abstract The frequency of gastrointestinal parasites with an emphasis on Strongylus vulgaris was investigated among the Brazilian Pony breed kept on farms in the municipality of Teresópolis, state of Rio de Janeiro. Fec...

PbS colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) can be considered a promising lighting material, but their emission performance is mired by defect sites, strong photo-induced activity, and interaction with the environment. Here, we ut...

The demand on broadband near-infrared photodetections with high responsivity is becoming increasingly eminent; however its realization remains a significant technological challenge. Here we design, fabricate, and charact...

Pesticides increase agricultural productivity worldwide. Unfortunately, these pesticides put public health and the environment at risk. This study aimed to document the presence of pests and diseases in tomato crops, the...
