Did the Indian Green Revolution Change the Farm Size–Productivity Relationship?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between farm size and productivity during India's Green Revolution, a period of rapid technological transformation. Using a unique panel of over 5000 Indian farm households that spans the Green Revolution (1971–1999), we show that the classic (linear) inverse farm size–productivity relationship gradually evolved ...

Local similar solution of MHD stagnation point flow in Carreau fluid over a non-linear stretched surface with double stratified medium

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2017
This article studies MHD double stratified stagnation point flow of Carreau fluid towards a non linear stretchable surface with radiation. Features of heat and mass transfer are evaluated by using convective boundary conditions.

Influence of thermal boundary conditions on heat transfer from a cylinder in cross flow [PDF]

open access: yes
Local heat transfer data over the leading surface of a cylinder in crossflow were obtained for a Reynolds number range of 50,000. The cylinder was operated at both uniform-wall-temperature and uniform-heat-flux thermal ance of 80 deg from the front ...

Velocity measurements in regions of upstream influence of a body in aligned-fields MHD flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
Experiments are described in which velocities were measured ahead of a semi-infinite Rankine body moving parallel to a uniform magnetic field in a conducting fluid.

The Bitter Taste of Brazil's Temporary Import Ban on Robusta Coffee

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazil, a leading Robusta coffee producer and exporter, faced a significant drought in 2016–2017, which drastically reduced production and depleted stocks. Consequently, Brazil temporarily permitted the import of one million 60‐kg bags of Robusta coffee in the spring 2017. An import ban was imposed shortly afterward due to lobbying by domestic

Direct numerical simulation of heat transfer from the stagnation region of a heated cylinder affected by an impinging wake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Copyright © 2011 Cambridge University Press.The effect of an incoming wake on the flow around and heat transfer from the stagnation region of a circular cylinder was studied using direct numerical simulations (DNSs).

FastCat: Autonomous Discovery of Multielement Layered Double Hydroxide Alloy Catalysts for Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐guided self‐driving laboratory screened over 500 nickel‐based layered double‐hydroxide catalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution. Out of the eight metals, the robot uncovered a quaternary Ni–Fe–Cr–Co catalysts requiring only 231 mV overpotential to reach 20 mA cm−2.

Entropy generation in MHD mixed convection stagnation-point flow in the presence of joule and frictional heating

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2018
This article looks at the second law analysis of MHD boundary layer stagnation-point flow past over linearly stretched sheet. The thermal boundary condition is supposed to be non-isothermal and the effects of friction and Joule heating have been analysed.

The pressure confined wind of the massive and compact superstar cluster M82-A1

open access: yes, 2007
The observed parameters of the young superstar cluster M82-A1 and its associated compact HII region are here shown to indicate a low heating efficiency or immediate loss, through radiative cooling, of a large fraction of the energy inserted by stellar ...
