The influence of explant nodal positions on the in vitro shoot growth and proliferation were studied in the two rose cvs. ‘Bianca’ and ‘El Torro’. Third, fourth and fifth nodal explants were cultured on the modified MS medium supplemented with 1.0 and 5.0 mg/l BA. In both the cultivars, higher rate of proliferation (‘Bianca’ 3.75; ‘El Torro’ 2.65) were obtained from the explants distal to the a...

In this paper, an inverse nodal problem for a second-order differential equation having a chemical potential on a finite interval is investigated. First, we estimate the nodal points and nodal lengths of differential operator. Then, we show that the potential can be uniquely determined by a dense set of nodes of the eigenfunctions.

As the number of metal layers and the frequency of VLSI continue to increase, the voltage droop on both the package and vias is becoming more pronounced. This paper analyzes the numerical problem encountered in simulation of power/ground networks together with C4 package and via model. A new preconditioned iterative method and associated acceleration technique are introduced to overcome shortag...

The paper develops a semi-Lagrangian method for the numerical integration of the transport equation discretized on adaptive Cartesian cubic meshes. We use dynamically adaptive graded Cartesian grids. They allows for a fast grid reconstruction in the course of numerical integration. The suggested semi-Lagrangian method uses a higher order interpolation with a limiting strategy and a back-and-for...

background: axillary nodal spread is an established prognostic factor in breast cancer. axillary nodal dissection and subsequent pathological examination is considered the gold standard technique of assessing the axilla for metastatic disease. a minimum of ten level i axillary nodes are required to be examined before an axillary specimen can be reliably labeled as disease free. this recommendat...

We present a comprehensive assessment of nodal and hybrid modal/nodal discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element solutions on a range of unstructured meshes to nonlinear shallow water flow with smooth solutions. The nodal DG methods on triangles and a tensor-product nodal basis on quadrilaterals are considered. The hybrid modal/nodal DG methods utilize two different synergistic polynomial bases...
