Hyperspectral reflectance derived vegetation indices (VIs) are used for non-destructive leaf area index (LAI) monitoring precise and efficient N nutrition management. This study tested the hypothesis that there is potential using various hyperspectral VIs estimating LAI at different growth stages of rice under varying rates. crop canopy measurements were carried out over 2 years (2015 2016) in Meichuan, Hubei, China. Different fertilization, 0, 45, 82, 127, 165, 210, 247, 292 kg ha-1,...

Abstract The formation of the solid electrolyte interphase during and conditioning steps, is a very time consuming expensive process. We present an active method in LiNi 1/3 Mn Co O 2 (NMC-111) versus graphite lithium-ion batteries, which maintains cycling performance cells. Ten different protocols were evaluated, consisted between upper (V u ) lower l voltages. cells evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) cycling. X-ray photoelectron was used to analyse surface...

This article addresses the objective, experimental design and methodology of tests conducted for battery State Health (SOH) estimation using an accelerated test method. For this purpose, 25 unused cylindrical cells were aged, by continual electrical cycling a 0.5C charge 1C discharge to 5 different SOH breakpoints (80, 85, 90, 95 100%). Ageing values was undertaken at temperature °C. A reference performance (RPT) C/3 charge-discharge °C performed when new each stage define energy capacity...

Non-destructive and rapid estimation of canopy variables is imperative for predicting crop growth managing nitrogen (N) application. Hyperspectral remote sensing can be used timely accurate physical chemical properties; however, discrepancies associated with soil water backgrounds complicate the N status using spectral reflectance (CSR). This study established quantitative relationships between dynamic (CN) indicators, leaf dry weight (LDW), concentration (LNC), accumulation (LNA),...

AbstractTextile industries use large amounts of water as well dyes. These dyes containing are then discharged into the bodies causing a significant role in pollution. Brilliant Green dye contributes to many harmful diseases related respiratory and gastrointestinal tract. In this study, Symplocos racemosa (SR) agro-waste was chemically treated with acid (SR-HCl) base (SR-NaOH) used for removing Dye (BGD) on batch scale. They were characterized by SEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD, TGA DSC. Optimized...

60 Co) has been used to generate novel mutants of the Basmati rice. In this study rice cultivars; Basmati-370 and Basmati-Pak, were exposed different doses gamma radiations stable along with parents studied for genomic diversity on basis molecular marker (AFLP). Morphological data showed that performed well yield components grain physical parameters whereas, mutant EL-30-2-1 extra long rain trait as compared parent (Basmati-Pak). The genetic variations determined through AFLP revealed a...

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) were chemically deposited on a Nafion polymer electrolyte membrane by the impregnation-reduction (I-R) procedure to prepare an active electrode for solid electrochemical sensors. Various analysis methods such as SEM, EDX, XRD and cyclic voltammogram (CV) measurements employed in order characterize microstructures properties of Pt layer. At conditions ([Pt(NH3)4Cl2] = 10 mM, [NaBH4] 60 50 degrees C), porous thin-film, consisting sphere-like particles formed...

A Pt nanoparticle-decorated multiwall carbon nanotube (Pt-MWNT) electrode was prepared on Nafion by a hot-pressing at relatively low temperature. This exhibited an intricate entangled, nanoporous structure as result of gathering highly anisotropic Pt-MWNTs. Individual nanoparticles were confirmed to have polycrystalline face-centered cubic with average crystal size around 3.5 nm. From the cyclic voltammograms for hydrogen redox reactions, Pt-MWNT found similar electrochemical behavior Pt,...

In this work, we propose a novel chemoresistive gas sensor operated under vertical analyte flow passing through permeable sensing membrane. Such configuration is different from the use of planar implemented conventional horizontal flow. A highly porous core-shell polyacrylonitrile-polypyrrole (PAN@PPy) nanofiber mat was prepared as element via electrospinning and two-step vapor-phase polymerization (VPP). Various analysis methods such SEM, TEM, FT-IR XPS measurements were employed in order...

An amperometric nitrate biosensor was successfully constructed by the electroimmobilization of enzyme reductase from Aspergillus niger with and without β-NADH, a co-factor, into conducting polypyrrole films on screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE). The best performance registered developed β-NADH electroimmobolize reducatse SPCE. formation optimum NaR-PPy composite SPCE achieved an applied potential 0.9 Vs-1 for 900s. response obtained in 0.1M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.5 -0.1 2mM...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the treatment effectiveness CPM machine during post-operative ACL patients. It hypothesized (H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0</sub> ) that there is no significance difference on muscles activities between experimental period (during movement) with and control resting) before machine. data analysis compared following variables for 11 patients who received 30 min conducted as an first...

Li-ion batteries (LIBs) have the highest gravimetric and volumetric energy density than other rechargeable are a potential candidate which can replace internal combustion engines (ICEs) in present future automobiles to reduce transport sector’s problems of oil supplies CO 2 emission climate change. The limitations associated with adopting this green technology completely traditional propulsion from higher cost, capacity fade cycling time. capital cost battery includes material production...
