Abstract Background Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus is a highly diverse opportunistic pathogen of horses, associated with respiratory disease and endometritis. Objectives To characterise S. zooepidemicus isolates recovered from young ponies during a natural episode of respiratory disease, and to determine if vaccination with Strangvac®, a ...

A Two‐Step Procedure for Generating Domestic and Asymmetric Trade Costs When Data Are Scarce
ABSTRACT The practice of domestic trade cost measurement faces several challenges related to data quality, methodology and theory; but the major issue is that of data scarcity. Due to these facts, both domestic and asymmetric trade costs have been ignored despite being a feature of modern trade models.

Toeplitz Jacobian Method for Nonlinear Double-Periodic Excitations
The Toeplitz Jacobian matrix method is an efficient algorithm for computing the steady state solutions of nonlinear periodic vibration. In this paper, the method is generalized by using multiple time scales to double-periodic solutions in a multi ...

ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

A Superlinearly Convergent Method for the Generalized Complementarity Problem over a Polyhedral Cone
Making use of a smoothing NCP-function, we formulate the generalized complementarity problem (GCP) over a polyhedral cone as an equivalent system of equations. Then we present a Newton-type method for the equivalent system to obtain a solution of the GCP.

In the real world, we are faced with many problems that cannot be easily described by crisp values, as there is always some uncertainty involved in real-life situations and in those situations, we end up receiving fuzzy values rather than crisp ones in ...

Approximate Newton methods for nonsmooth equations
We develop general approximate Newton methods for solving Lipschitz continuous equations by replacing the iteration matrix with a consistently approximated Jacobian, thereby reducing the computation in the generalized Newton method.

In 120 patients receiving postmastectomy radiotherapy, each irradiated chest wall was divided into medial and lateral halves, which were randomised to Mepitel Film or StrataXRT. Mepitel Film reduced grade 2–3 acute radiation dermatitis and clinician‐assessed erythema and moist desquamation over time.

Abstract BACKGROUND Diplotaxis tenuifolia L. cv Dallas (rocket leaves) is one of the most widely consumed fresh‐cut salad vegetables in Europe, especially in southern Italy, being appreciated for its pungent taste and health promoting phytochemicals. However, its short postharvest shelf‐life is still a major drawback.
