The flow interception efficiency, which provides a measure of the fraction of streamlines that intercept a porous collector, is an important parameter in applications such as particle capture, filtration, and sedimentation. In this work, flow permeation through a porous circular cylinder located symmetrically between two impermeable parallel plates is investigated numerically under different fl...

World’s natural resource will be pressured by population increment that is to achieve high food production through intensive farming. Bulb crops are among largely produced which characterized a shallow root system and underground vertical shoots. They also cool season crops, their growth influenced water, nutrients, radiation carbon-dioxide. Factors determine water use efficiency tillage, stage...

Rainfall partitioning and redistribution by canopies are important ecohydrological processes underlying ecosystem dynamics. We quantified and contrasted spatial and temporal variations of rainfall redistribution for a juniper (Juniperus virginiana, redcedar) woodland and a tallgrass prairie in the south-central Great Plains, USA. Our results showed that redcedar trees had high canopy storage ca...

In the present contribution the problem of signal interception in a virtual MIMO scenario is considered. A possible distributed signal interception algorithm which is able to detect and discriminate between two similar OFDM signals is analyzed. Distributed and stand-alone algorithms are compared through simulations in a multipath environment and the different levels of cooperation required amon...

This study was conducted to analyze the effectiveness of using reflective mulch under stands oil palm plants several ages on intensity solar radiation reflection, growth, chlorophyll content, and photosynthetic characteristics soybeans. A nested design used, with first factor age group consisting open land aged 4, 5, 8 years. The second that included without mulch, inorganic organic mulch. use ...

The efficiency of a crop to intercept and utilize solar radiation for photosynthates production serves as one the deciding factors productive potential stand. Interception use photosynthetically active (PAR) were estimated in relay grass pea under different nutrient management schedules consecutive two seasons 2017–2018 2018–2019. Treatments levels seed priming (i.e., 1. S1: Without 2. S2: Seed...

The single-unit activity of 831 cells was recorded in the arm area of the motor cortex of two monkeys while the monkeys intercepted a moving visual stimulus (interception task) or remained immobile during presentation of the same moving stimulus (no-go task). The moving target traveled on an oblique path from either lower corner of a screen toward the vertical meridian, and its movement time (0...
