This paper discusses the use of Box Behnken design (BBD) approach to plan the experiments for turning the yield of CVD, thickness and layer number of graphene sheets with an overall objective of optimizing the process to provide higher graphene production volume, fewer layers and thinness structure of graphene. BBD is having the maximum efficiency for an experiment involving four factors such a...

This paper presents and estimates a regime switching macro-…nance model of the term structure with latent and macroeconomic factors. The joint dynamics of the yield and macro factors are examined simultaneously. Both the canonical yields-only model and the macro-…nance model capture two regimes in the state equation that relate to a turbulent period and a tranquil period. Statistically, the for...

A crucial practice for vineyard managers is to control the amount of fruit hanging on their vines to reach yield and quality goals. Current vine manipulation methods to adjust level of fruit are inaccurate and ineffective because they are often not performed according to quantitative yield information. Even when yield predictions are available they are inaccurate and spatially coarse because th...

The objective of this paper is to provide a state of the art review of the application of yield-line analysis to cold-formed steel members, and present a newly developed solution to the stresses that develop in an inclined yield-line. Yield-line analysis in cold-formed steel members is shown to be distinct from traditional yield-line applications. Challenges in the application of yield-line ana...

increasing diversity and apply intercropping systems is one of approaches to control of weeds. to evaluate the effects of additive maize-bean intercropping on yield, yield components and weeds in zanjan conditions, a field study was conducted in a spilt plot with randomized complete block design in three replications at research farm of zanjan university in 2010. main plots were the different p...

Cows with high lactation persistency tend to produce less milk than expected at the beginning of lactation and more than expected at the end. Best prediction of lactation persistency is calculated as a function of trait-specific standard lactation curves and linear regressions of test-day deviations on days in milk. Because regression coefficients are deviations from a tipping point selected to...
