we describe how to obtain electronic transport properties of disordered graphene, including the tight binding model and nearest neighbor hopping. we present a new method for computing, electronic transport wave function and greens function of the disordered graphene. in this method, based on the small rectangular approximation, break up the potential barriers in to small parts. then using the f...

BACKGROUND Interspecific hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. x C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy] is one of the most widely used grasses on golf courses, with cultivars derived from 'Tifgreen' or 'Tifdwarf' particularly used for putting greens. Many bermudagrass cultivars established for putting greens can be genetically unstable and lead to the occurrence of undesirable off-type grasse...

Rationale Take-all patch, caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis f. sp. avenae, is favored by alkaline soils. Because the calcareous sands used for putting greens in the Midwest have a high pH, bentgrass greens constructed with high sand content or to USGA specifications are especially prone to the disease. Previous research addressed take-all patch on established bentgrass greens and fairways with ...

Introduction Rimon (novaluron, Chemtura Corp.) is an insect growth regulator with activity against a variety of caterpillar pests and whiteflies. It has shown excellent activity against the diamondback moth and should prove useful in resistance management, once it is labeled on cole crops and greens. Recent research has indicated a potential problem with use of novaluron on some greens, as phyt...

Theories of toughness of materials depend on an understanding of the characteristic instabilities of the crack tip, and their possible interactions. In this paper we examine the effect of dislocation emission on subsequent cleavage of a crack and on further dislocation emission. The work is an extension of the previously published Lattice Greens Function methodology[1, 2, 3]. We have developed ...

It is common fallacy in Britain that 'American' golf greens are constructed of sand; are excessively irrigated, excessively fertilized, and that their surfaces are soft. Generalisations of 'American' golf greens cannot be made. The diversity in climates, maintenance budgets, construction methods, etc., results in a host of 'American' greens. The grass species on the greens may consist of Poa an...

Bile acid binding capacity has been related to the cholesterol-lowering potential of foods and food fractions. Lowered recirculation of bile acids results in utilization of cholesterol to synthesize bile acid and reduced fat absorption. Secondary bile acids have been associated with increased risk of cancer. Bile acid binding potential has been related to lowering the risk of heart disease and ...

Field experiments were conducted in 1989 and 1990 to examine the population fluctuation patterns of Tylenchorhynchus nudus, Criconemella curvata, and Helicotylenchus cornurus in mixed bentgrass and annual bluegrass putting greens on two golf courses near Chicago, Illinois, to determine if fluctuation patterns could be extrapolated to unsampled greens. Fenamiphos-treated and untreated plots were...

The space-time Greens functions for 3-D poststack and 3-D prestack migration in a homogeneous medium are derived under the far-field approximation. These Greens functions can be used to practically compute synthetic migrated images. Examples are given for the recording footprint noise associated with a point scatterer and a meandering river channel. The Greens functions also provide fundamental...
