Cultivares de trigo submetidas a déficit hídrico no início do florescimento, em casa de vegetação Wheat cultivars submitted to water deficit at the beginning of flowering in greenh... by Diego dos Santos, Vandeir F. Guimarães, Jeferson Klein, Samuel L. Fioreze, Eurides K. Macedo Júnior

“…Reduction was found in the gravimetric soil moisture, in the relative levels of water and in all biometric variables, in function of the water deficit. The grain production showed difference only among the water regimes, in which the cultivar CD 111 is more efficient in the maintenance of the productive potential in conditions of water deficit, through the quick recovery in the relative content of water in leaves.…”

Fokker-Planck Central Moment Lattice Boltzmann Method for Effective Simulations of Fluid Dynamics by William Schupbach, Kannan Premnath

“…This can be interpreted as a new path for the collision process in terms of the relaxation of the various central moments to “equilibria”, which we term as the Markovian central moment attractors that depend on the products of the adjacent lower order moments and a diffusion coefficient tensor, thereby involving of a chain of attractors; effectively, the latter are nonlinear functions of not only the hydrodynamic variables, but also the non-conserved moments; the relaxation rates are based on scaling the drift coefficient by the order of the moment involved. …”

An assessment of the likely impact of strain-related phenotypic plasticity on hominin fossil species identification by M. Collard, S.J. Lycett

“…We divided the measurements into three groups: measurements of features subject to high masticatory strain, measurements of features subject to low-to-moderate masticatory strain, and measurements of features that do not remodel and therefore are not prone to strain-related phenotypic plasticity. Next, we used the coefficient of variation and ANOVA to investigate whether masticatory strain is a cause of variability. …”

Vibration Analysis of Rotating Tapered Timoshenko Beams by a New Finite Element Model by Bulent Yardimoglu

“…A new finite element model is developed and subsequently used for transverse vibrations of tapered Timoshenko beams with rectangular cross-section. The displacement functions of the finite element are derived from the coupled displacement field (the polynomial coefficients of transverse displacement and cross-sectional rotation are coupled through consideration of the differential equations of equilibrium) approach by considering the tapering functions of breadth and depth of the beam. …”
