Intelligent fault diagnosis of shearer based on simplified interval kernel global-local feature fusion by Ning LI, Hua DING, Xiaochun SUN, Zeping LIU, Guoshu PU

“…As one of the main equipment in coal mining, the health status of shearer is difficult to be accurately monitored due to some factors such as harsh working environment and narrow operating space, and it is highly susceptible to the impact of coal and rock, which can cause faults and directly affect the working efficiency of shearer. In addition, due to the special working environment of shearer, the vibration data collected is very easy to be interfered by various factors and difficult to be used, which affects the reliability and intelligence level of its monitoring. …”

Multiple metabolic requirements for size homeostasis and initiation of division in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Shivatheja Soma, Kailu Yang, Maria I. Morales, Michael Polymenis

“…Furthermore, we show that adenylate kinase, encoded by ADK1, is a significant determinant of the efficiency of size control mechanisms. Finally, our data argue strongly that the cell size at division is not necessarily a function of the rate cells increase in size in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. …”

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.…”
