A review of cooling technologies for high temperature rotating components in gas turbine
Modern gas turbines work under demanding high temperatures, high pressures, and high rotational speeds. In order to ensure durable and reliable operation, effective cooling measures must be applied to the high-temperature rotating components, including ...

Hydrolytic enzyme activity (phytase and α-amylase) is decisive in the germination metabolism of maize seeds under salt stress [PDF]
The mobilization of reserves is essential for seedling formation and can be influenced by seed vigor. This work evaluated how seed vigor and reserve mobilization influence maize seedling formation under salt stress.

Vigor of reaching movements: reward discounts the cost of effort.
Making a movement may be thought of as an economic decision in which one spends effort to acquire reward. Time discounts reward, which predicts that the magnitude of reward should affect movement vigor: we should move faster, spending greater effort ...

A practical illustration of the importance of realistic individualized treatment rules in causal inference [PDF]
The effect of vigorous physical activity on mortality in the elderly is difficult to estimate using conventional approaches to causal inference that define this effect by comparing the mortality risks corresponding to hypothetical scenarios in which all subjects in the target population engage in a given level of vigorous physical activity.

Drought stress has transgenerational effects on soybean seed germination and seedling vigor
Effects of environmental stressors on the parent may be transmitted to the F1 generation of plants that support global food, oil, and energy production for humans and animals.
