This paper considers some extensions of the notion filter to quantale-valued context, including saturated prefilter, ?-filter and bounded prefilter. The question is whether these constructions give rise monads on category sets. It shown that answer depends structure quantale. Specifically, if quantale unit interval equipped with a continuous t-norm, then only implication operator corresponding ...

Despite the well-established observation that substitution of saturated fats for carbohydrates or unsaturated fats increases low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in humans and animal models, the relationship of saturated fat intake to risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in humans remains controversial. A critical question is what macronutrient should be used to replace saturate...

The saturated hydraulic conductivity of soil is needed for deteriming the agricultural and hydrological processes. The measurement techniques used to estimate such property remain hampered by extensive labor and time constraints. Both emitter discharge rate and steady saturated radius emerged from point source trickle irrigation on the soil surface were used to determine the saturated hydraulic...
