In this paper, a rotary-focusing device for the antiplane shear wave is constructed to control and guide elastic wave energy transmission in elastic membranes.The designed device can cloak the antiplane shear waves outside the device and has a rotary-focusing effect on the shear waves energy inside the device in a membrane.The multilayered isotropi
Abstract Very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) possess more than twenty carbon atoms and are the major components of seed storage oil, wax, and lipids.FAE (Fatty Acid Elongation) like genes take part in the biosynthesis of VLCFAs, growth regulation, and stress responses, and are further comprised of KCS (Ketoacyl-CoA synthase) and ELO (Elongation D
To minimize the impact of snowfall and ice formation on safety of transportation, salt is sprinkled on the asphalt every winter.However, the use of salt has economical as well as ecological disadvantages.To resolve these problems, road heating systems are used in the northern regions of Europe and America.Despite their widespread usage, considerabl
Abstract Cosmocercoides latrans n.sp.(Cosmocercidae) from the small intestine of Leptodactylus latrans (Anura: Leptodactylidae) from Northeastern Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina is described.The new species can be distinguished from their congeners by a combination of Dolls the characters, among which stands out the number of rosette papillae,
