Angus bulls (n = 20) from three pure-bred herds in Georgia were acquired to determine the impact of selecting sires based on phenotypic yearling ultrasound intramuscular fat percentage (UIMF) or UIMF EPD on marbling score of steer progeny. Each year in each herd, pairs of bulls were selected to create large differences based on their age adjusted phenotypic yearling UIMF measurements. The avera...

This paper presents an algorithm for extending RS paths for a robot with both front and rear wheel steer. We call such robots as FR steer. The occurrence of such paths is due to the additional maneuver possible in such a robot which we call parallel steer, in addition to the ones already present in a vehicle with only front wheel steering. Hence we extend the optimal path set Λ, containing only...

in his editorial, nir eyal argues that a nudge can exploit our propensity to feel shame in order to steer us toward certain choices. we object that shame is a cost and therefore cannot figure in the apparatus of a nudge.

The usage of electronically controlled systems is recently in the trend of increase. Electronically controlled systems for the vehicle are communicated through the network as CAN (Control Area Network) among individual electronic control systems. By sharing sensor and processing signals through the network among individual electronic control systems, Unified Chassis Control (UCC) which control ...

Recent papers from Mahata et al. and Bereshchenko et al. reveal how steroids steer immune responses by tipping T helper (Th) subset balances and activities. Pregnenolone produced by Th2 cells mediates immunosuppressive responses, and glucocorticoids stimulate regulatory T cell development via the induction of GILZ expression.

The article analyzes the power train components of skid steer loaders. choice scheme and design transmission units loader with a traction electric drive is substantiated. results calculating characteristic straight-line movement taking into account different values coefficient resistance to are presented.

This paper examines the benefits of incorporating vehicle dynamics modeling into the design of a diagnostic system for a steer-by-wire vehicle. The use of a model of vehicle dynamics improves the speed and accuracy of the diagnoses, by eliminating a significant source of disturbance input to the steer-by-wire system model. A method for reducing the effects of modeling uncertainty on diagnostic ...

Simple surgery gave whole meibomian glands of steer yielding approximately 47 mg of lipid per pair of lids. This lipid gave a thin-layer chromatography pattern similar to that of steer or human excreta. Column chromatography of pooled steer gland lipids and pooled human lipid (excreta) gave 0.06% and 7.54% hydrocarbons, respectively, containing no squalene. Excluding human hydrocarbons (as exog...
