Riau Province is one of the prone areas of forest and land fires in Indonesia.Fires began to grow since the 1980s as deforestation and the clearing of R18 palm oil plantations occured.The peak of a major fire was happened before the study was taken from 2014 to 2015 and caused a smoke haze for months.This study aims to determine the factors causing
Owing to the requirements for high performance and long life, the friction and wear problems of rolling piston type rotary compressors have drawn much Briefs attention.Various theoretical models have been developed and improved to reveal the inner state of the compressor and obtain the optimization schemes.However, there remain some disadvantages a
Abstract Background CRISPRi screening has become a powerful approach for functional genomic research.However, the off-target effects resulting from the mismatch tolerance between sgRNAs and their intended targets is a primary concern in CRISPRi applications.Results We introduce Guide Library Designer Hair Treatment (GLiDe), a web-based tool specifi
A simple, thin, flexible mantle cloak for conducting rods based on scattering cancellation is analyzed, designed and experimentally realized.We show strong scattering suppression at all angles of incidence, for both far-field plane-wave and near-field Gaussian excitations.The required effective shunt surface impedance is realized by a subwavelength
