abstract plants growth and development and physiological activities occur in a certain air temperature range. spit of this fact that zero temperature named as a freezing temperature, in agriculture meteorology, freezing happen in lower temperature which is different for plants that lead to their tissues damage. early autumn freezing cause damage to harvesting of cotton and sugar beet and affect...

The exact solution is found for the Stefan problem of inwards freezing of a nonhomogeneous cylinder whose specific heat and latent heat depend upon the inverse square of the radial distance. The freezing time for the corresponding annular cylinder is found exactly. The validity of the pseudo-steady-state approximation for the solvable cylinder problem is verified explicitly. It is argued that t...

Icicles form when cool water drips from an overhanging support under ambient conditions which are below freezing. Ice growth is controlled by the removal of latent heat, which is transferred into the surrounding air via a thin film of water flowing over the ice surface. We describe laboratory experiments in which icicles were grown under controlled conditions. We used image analysis to probe th...

The problem of freezing will be considered from two standpoints: first, the local lesion and the therapeutic management of the frozen member, and second, the general effects of freezing including the possible presence of secondary shock and depression of the general body temperature. The literature on freezing as compared with burns is not very extensive. This may be accounted for by the fact t...

Freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease and related disorders is common and very disabling. It usually occurs in the advanced stages, although mild forms may develop earlier. Freezing can occur on turning, in narrow spaces, immediately before reaching a destination, and in stressful situations. Dual tasking (motor or cognitive load) aggravates the problem. Freezing of gait in Parkinson's diseas...
