The objective of this study was to evaluate the fermentation dynamics of 2 commonly fed corn (co)products in their intact and defatted forms, using the in vitro gas production (IVGP) technique, and to investigate the shifts of the predominant rumen bacterial populations using the 16S rDNA bacterial tag-encoded FLX amplicon pyrosequencing (bTEFAP) technique. The bTEFAP technique was used to dete...

The rapid advancement of nanotechnology research and development during the past decade presents an excellent opportunity for a scientometric study because it can provide insights on the dynamic growth of the fast evolving social networks associated with this exciting field. In this paper we conduct a case study on nanotechnology in order to discover the dynamics that govern the growth process ...

Zusammenfassung Schätzungen zufolge werden im Jahr 2040 rund zwölf Millionen Menschen in Deutschland an Diabetes mellitus erkrankt sein. Um die steigende Zahl Neuerkrankungen einzudämmen und Versorgung sicherzustellen, verabschiedete der Deutsche Bundestag 2020 Nationale Diabetesstrategie. Die Strategie muss jedoch mit konkreten Maßnahmen ausdifferenziert werden. Gesellschaft (DDG) hat hierfür ...

Great progress has been achieved in domain adaptation decades. Existing works are always based on an ideal assumption that testing target domains independent and identically distributed with training domains. However, due to unpredictable corruptions (e.g., noise blur) real data, such as web images real-world object detection, methods increasingly required be corruption robust We investigate a ...

Many tools from discrete differential geometry (DDG) were inspired by practical considerations in areas like computer graphics and vision. Disciplines like these require fine-grained understanding of geometric structure and the relationships between different shapes—problems for which the toolbox from smooth geometry can provide substantial insight. Indeed, a triumph of discrete differential ge...

Abstract This research evaluated the effects of supplementing extruded dried distillers’ grains (DDG) cubes to grazing steers on subsequent finishing performance and carcass characteristics. Steers (n = 140) grazed tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea)/bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) pastures from 14 April 17 September 2020 with supplementation treatments 3 pastures/treatment) that included: 1) Fer...

Current Navy implementation of statutory requirements for naval surface combatants dictates the performance of a ship shock trial in order to determine the vulnerability of a ship to an underwater explosion (UNDEX) non-contact shock threat environment. The shock trial features a series of shots, typically three to four, at increasing levels of severity culminating in a two-thirds ship design le...

During World War II many surface combatants were damaged or severely crippled by close-proximity underwater explosions from ordnance that had actually missed their target. Since this time all new classes of combatants have been required to conduct shock trial tests on the lead ship of the class in order to test the survivability of mission essential equipment in a severe shock environment. Whil...
