Type-IV Pilus deformation can explain retraction behavior. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Polymeric filament like type IV Pilus (TFP) can transfer forces in excess of 100 pN during their retraction before stalling, powering surface translocation(twitching).

Neck-rail position in the free stall affects standing behavior and udder and stall cleanliness [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2009 This study tested the effect of neck-rail position on stall usage and udder and stall cleanliness. Thirty Holstein lactating cows were tested in groups of 6. Each group was tested with each of 5 neck-rail positions (130, 145, 160, 175, and 190 cm from the rear curb, at a constant height of 125 cm above the bedded surface) for 1 wk, with the order of ...

High-Enthalpy Geothermal Simulation with Continuous Localization in Physics
Mathematics, 2022 Simulation of heat production in high-enthalpy geothermal systems is associated with a complex physical process in which cold water invades steam-saturated control volumes. The fully implicit, fully coupled numerical strategy is commonly adopted to solve

Comfort Zone-Design Free Stalls: Do They Influence the Stall Use Behavior of Lame Cows? [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2008 The behavior of 59 cows in 4 herds, each with Comfort Zone-design free stalls with dimensions suitable for 700-kg, mature Holstein dairy cows, was filmed for a 48-h period. Comparison was made between nonlame, slightly lame, and moderately lame cows on either rubber-crumb-filled mattress stall surfaces bedded with a small amount of sawdust (2 herds) or

A Model for Predicting Post-Stall Behavior of Axial Compressors [PDF]
Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2021 The current paper reports on a new theory developed by modifying the basic Moore-Greitzer model, which can predict the performance of a compression system during the instabilities in more details. The general assumptions such as the compression system layout, the lags in the entrance and exit ducts, the compressor axisymmetric characteristic and the ...

Neutrophil Interactions Stimulate Evasive Hyphal Branching by Aspergillus fumigatus. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2017 Invasive aspergillosis (IA), primarily caused by Aspergillus fumigatus, is an opportunistic fungal infection predominantly affecting immunocompromised and neutropenic patients that is difficult to treat and results in high mortality.

Ingestive Behavior of Lambs Confined in Individual and Group Stalls [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2014 The experiment was conducted to evaluate the ingestive behavior of lambs confined in individual and group stalls. We used thirty-four lambs in their growing phase, aged an average of three months, with mean initial live weight of 17.8±5.2 kg. They were allotted in a completely randomized design with 24 animals kept in individual stalls and 10 animals ...
