On the Extended Simple Equations Method (SEsM) for Obtaining Numerous Exact Solutions to Fractional Partial Differential Equations: A Generalized Algorithm and Several Applications by Elena V. Nikolova

“…The expansions made to the original SEsM algorithm are implemented in several directions: (1) In constructing analytical solutions: exact solutions to FNPDE systems are presented by simple or complex composite functions, including combinations of solutions to two or more different simple equations with distinct independent variables (corresponding to different wave velocities); (2) in selecting appropriate fractional derivatives and appropriate wave transformations: the choice of the type of fractional derivatives for each system of FNPDEs depends on the physical nature of the modeled real process. …”

Consumption inequality between farm and non-farm households in rural Vietnam by Thong Le Pham, Nghiem Tan Le, Nhi Nhat Phuong Ho, Thanh Cong Le

“…Most of the gaps are explained by the differences in the observed characteristics between farm and non-farm households such as ethnicity, education, income, internal transmittances and household composition. Non-farm households are endowed with more productive factors that result in higher per capita consumption expenditure. …”

Productivity and quality of Mombasa grass under fertilization with pig deep-litter and NPK by Marina da C. Guerrero, Tiago R. de Sousa, Saulo A. de Oliveira, Rômulo R. Caldeira, Adilson Pelá

“…PDL doses associated with mineral fertilization led to linear increases from 52 to 282% in the analyzed variables and better bromatological composition. PDL application is beneficial to the production of pastures, and increasing applications up to the PDL dose of 20 Mg ha-1 associated with mineral fertilization promoted better quantitative and qualitative results. …”
