Performance of popcorn introductions for agronomic characters, grain yield and popping qualities in the forest and derived savannah agro-ecologies of Nigeria

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2019
The study focus on the evaluation of popcorn lines for their yield and agronomic potentials. Genetic materials were evaluated under irrigation in a three-replicate in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with a commercial variety as check. Two seeds

Increasing the Size of a Piece of Popcorn

, 2004
Popcorn is an extremely popular snack food in the world today. Thermodynamics can be used to analyze how popcorn is produced. By treating the popping mechanism of the corn as a thermodynamic expansion, a method of increasing the volume or size of a ...

Gravitational-wave confusion background from cosmological compact binaries: Implications for future terrestrial detectors [PDF]

, 2009
Increasing the sensitivity of a gravitational-wave (GW) detector improves our ability to measure the characteristics of detected sources. It also increases the number of weak signals that contribute to the data.

Drag coefficient of vertically moving popcorns [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física
To take the students attention in physics lectures is always a challenge. The projectile motion is not an exception. Then, study of popcorn motion can be a way to introduce and motivate the students in this subject.

The stochastic background from cosmic (super)strings: popcorn and (Gaussian) continuous regimes

, 2012
In the era of the next generation of gravitational wave experiments a stochastic background from cusps of cosmic (super)strings is expected to be probed and, if not detected, to be significantly constrained.

Edible Pouch Motors

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Edible robotics is an emerging field that leverages edible materials to construct robotic systems. This study presents a method to create thin, lightweight, yet powerful edible soft actuators, namely edible pouch motors. The successful operation of these edible actuators and grippers renders their potential to advance future developments in edible ...
