This study aims at identifying the major soil borne pathogens of tomato associated with damping-off in nursery areas. To achieve this, nurseries plant pathology farm our area has been investigated. Samples symptoms were collected and cultured under aseptic conditions. Fungi isolated from diseased stem roots on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium. Growing colonies fungi purified by single spore hy...

The soilborne pathogens Rhizoctonia solani, Pythium ultimum, and Meloidogyne incognita can cause severe economic losses to fieldand greenhouse-grown cucumber. A collection of bacterial isolates and isolates GL3 and GL21 of Trichoderma virens were screened for suppression of diseases caused by these pathogens. T. virens isolates GL3 and GL21 provided the most effective suppression of damping-off...

The generation of small emittance beams is a key issue determining the luminosity at a future linear collider. Dedicated damping rings have been designed to produce such beams, but techniques to further reduce the design emittances would yield immediate improvements in terms of higher luminosity. At injection into the damping rings, the transverse beam emittances are large and the beam fills a ...

In this paper, we review and compare four algorithms for the identification of contact stiffness and damping during robot constrained motion. The intended application is dynamics modeling and simulation of robotic assembly operations in space. Accurate simulation of these tasks requires contact dynamics models, which in turn use contact stiffness and damping to calculate contact forces. Hence, ...
