State's fruit areas: Four major areas produce most of California's fruit and nut crops
California Agriculture, 1953 Practically all of California's commercial fruit acreage may be classed in one of two types of farming—fruit and mixed farming; or fruit, mixed farming and vegetable crops.

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.In this study, Seaman et al. develop a co‐culture assay to examine interactions between prostate cancer cells and mineralized osteoblasts in a microfluidic platform. The authors collect conditioned media from static or flow‐stimulated osteocytes and demonstrate that mechanical loading of osteocytes regulates the growth of prostate cancer cells and ...

California Agriculture, 1954 Even the below-average California grape crop in prospect for 1954–forecast at a little less than the 2,475,000 tons harvested in 1953, also a below-average crop–-may not enable the industry to dispose of all the state's price-depressing, exportable ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Gas Molecules Dissolved in Lubricant under Shear
Tribology Online, 2009 Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted in order to investigate the behaviors of dissolved gas molecules in lubricating film under shear. The lubricants were n-hexane and perfluorohexane, and the dissolved components were hydrogen.

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorus: Friend or Foe?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Researchers investigate black phosphorus (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.

Machine Learning Applied to High Entropy Alloys under Irradiation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Designing alloys for extreme environments demands fast, trustworthy prediction. This review charts how machine learning—especially machine‐learned interatomic potentials and predictive models based on experiment‐informed datasets—captures the complexity of high‐entropy alloys in extreme environments, predicts phase formation, mechanical properties, and

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The share of technical thermoplastics is expected to grow further in the e‐mobility segment. In this study, a detailed temperature‐based tribological characterization of technical thermoplastics is performed. The tribological properties are discussed in terms of the dynamic mechanical properties of polymers at different ambient temperatures. A proof of
