Use of a Spine Robot Employing a Real Time Force Control Algorithm to Develop, Simulate, and Compare Spinal Biomechanical Testing Protocols: Eccentric Loading, Pure Moment, and a Novel Head Weight Protocol
… force vector applied to C2 produced by the weight of the human head. Furthermore, we are unaware of previous direct protocol to protocol comparisons using the same testing platform and test specimens. A novel protocol, the Head Weight Loading (HWL) protocol, was developed to maintain a …

Mechanization of the selective harvest of broccoli
… were made on broccoli plants both years. Head height, stalk diameter, and head weight were strongly affected by harvest time and in-row plant spacing. Height and stalk diameter were moderately correlated to head diameter. A regression model for predicting head diameter from height and …

Broccoli yield response to cabbage looper and varietal preferences of lepidopterous pests of broccoli
… production by 62.5% of the growers. Before heading, 2.4 insecticidal sprays were applied for worms at $20.51/acre. During heading, 2.4 insecticidal sprays were applied for worms at $19.40/acre. Under normal growing conditions, a nine-day mean of 8.4 and a 15-day mean of 12.1 cabbage looper …

New Methodologies for the Characterization and Separation of Rare Earth Elements Present in Coal
… liberation analysis while using only one head sample. The new method relies on the mathematical reconstruction of the data to produce the resulting liberation profile. This allows the user to easily expand the method to include more liberation profiles without greatly increasing the amount …

Novel Biomarkers within Extracellular Vesicles for the Identification of Traumatic Brain Injury
… TBI using the pre-clinical, closed head, weight drop model followed by EVs isolation from blood plasma at multiple time points post injury. We detected time-dependent qualitative and quantitative changes in the biophysical properties of EVs. Furthermore, we discovered TBI induced …

The effect of carbon dioxide, temperature and water stress on growth, yield and seed quality of sunflower (Helianthus Annuus L.)
… included moisture content (MC), thousand seed weight (TSW), unhulled and hulled seed weight, seed germination and vigour (accelerated ageing and electrical conductivity tests). The results from conviron trials revealed that elevated CO2 enhanced growth by increasing the sunflower height in both …

Herbicide evaluation for broadleaf weed control in direct-seeded broccoli
… the cultivated check. Total number of broccoli heads per hectare for plots treated with BAS 514 equaled or exceeded that of the cultivated check. Broccoli treated with BAS 514 plus the experimental adjuvant BAS 090 showed increased injury and decreased yield with increasing rates when compared …
