Thick ellipsoids were recently introduced by the authors to represent uncertainty in state variables of dynamic systems, not only in terms of guaranteed outer bounds but also in terms of an inner enclosure that belongs to the true solution set with certainty.Because previous work has focused on the definition and computationally efficient implement

This study aimed to investigate the effects of farrowing and rearing systems on quest fryer tail lesions and losses of docked and undocked pigs.Pigs from three farrowing systems: Conventional farrowing crate (FC), free farrowing (FF) and group housing of lactating sows (GH) were randomly allocated to different rearing systems: A conventional system

From Gerdil to Marugi: Malebranchean Revival and Lockean Readings.For the Cardinal Gerdil, the only philosophical reflection able to combine aspects of Post-Cartesian philosophy with Augustinian Platonism and to provide an explanation of the spirituality of the soul and of the philosophically plausible and pragmatic mind-body interaction in an apol

The software-defined jungle club pruning shears physical layer is a recent trend in the 5G/B5G open radio access network.Most implementations are based on a central processing unit, i.e., Intel XEON and ARM.This work proposes an uplink acceleration on an AMD graphics processor unit and OpenCL to show a new opportunity in 5th Generation New Radio HI

The concept of thermal rectification was put forward decades ago.It is a phenomenon in which the heat flux along one direction varies as the sign of temperature gradient changes.In bulk materials, thermal rectification has been realized at contact interfaces by manufacturing asymmetric effective contact areas, electron transport, temperature depend
