Roles of phytohormone changes in the grain yield of rice plants exposed to heat: a review [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 During its reproductive phase, rice is susceptible to heat stress. Heat events will occur at all stages during the reproductive phase of rice as a result of global warming.

Analysis of Grain’s Initialization Algorithm [PDF]
, 2008 In this paper, we analyze the initialization algorithm of Grain, one of the eSTREAM candidates which made it to the third phase of the project. We point out the existence of a sliding property in the initialization algorithm of the Grain family, and show that it can be used to reduce by half the cost of exhaustive key search (currently the most ...

Forecast of the fatigue crack initiation site of commercially pure Titanium miniature specimens with local surface topography data [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020 Surfaces of technical components rarely appear in perfectly smooth condition. During fatigue loading, stress concentrations at surface asperities cause localized plastic deformation that can lead to crack initiation.

The Inferior Grain Filling Initiation Promotes the Source Strength of Rice Leaves
Rice, 2023 Poor grain-filling initiation in inferior spikelets severely impedes rice yield improvement, while photo-assimilates from source leaves can greatly stimulate the initiation of inferior grain-filling (sink).

A three-dimensional multiscale model of intergranular hydrogen-assisted cracking [PDF]
, 2010 We present a three-dimensional model of intergranular hydrogen-embrittlement (HE) that accounts for: (i) the degradation of grain-boundary strength that arises from hydrogen coverage; (ii) grain-boundary diffusion of hydrogen; and (iii) a continuum model

A fatigue crack initiation model incorporating discrete dislocation plasticity and surface roughness [PDF]
, 2007 Although a thorough understanding of fatigue crack initiation is lacking, experiments have shown that the evolution of distinct dislocation distributions and surface roughness are key ingredients.

Influence of oxide films on primary water stress corrosion cracking initiation of alloy 600 [PDF]
, 2006 In the present study alloy 600 was tested in simulated pressurised water reactor (PWR) primary water, at 360 °C, under an hydrogen partial pressure of 30 kPa. These testing conditions correspond to the maximum sensitivity of alloy 600 to crack initiation.

The initial structure of chondrule dust rims II: Charged grains [PDF]
Icarus, 2021 In order to characterize the early growth of fine-grained dust rims (FGRs) that commonly surround chondrules, we simulate the growth of FGRs through direct accretion of monomers of various sizes onto the chondrule surfaces. Dust becomes charged to varying degrees in the radiative plasma environment of the solar nebula (SN), and the resulting ...
