On ∼n Notion of Conjugacy in Some Classes of Epigroups by Aftab Hussain Shah, Amal S. Alali, Mohd Rafiq Parray

“…To avoid this problem, various innovative notions of conjugacy in semigroups have been considered so far, and ∼n is one of these notions. ∼n is an equivalence relation in any semigroup, coincides with the usual group theoretic notion if the underlying semigroup is a group, and does not reduce to a universal relation even if S contains a zero. …”

Effect of Surface Treated Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticles on Some Mechanical Properties of Maxillofacial Silicone Elastomer by Sara M. Zayed, Ahmad M. Alshimy, Amal E. Fahmy

“…This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adding different concentrations of surface treated silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO2) on clinically important mechanical properties of a maxillofacial silicone elastomer. 147 specimens of the silicone elastomer were prepared and divided into seven groups (n=21). One control group was prepared without nanoparticles and six study groups with different concentrations of nanoparticles, from 0.5% to 3% by weight. …”

Comparison of Hybrid Rye and Wheat for Grain Yield and Other Agronomic Traits Under Less Favourable Environmental Conditions and Two Input Levels by Thomas Miedaner, Sophie Lauenstein, Bärbel Lieberherr

“…It was conducted with two input levels: I1, fertilisation (100–120 kg N/ha for hybrid rye; 140–180 kg N/ha for winter wheat), and chemical plant protection including growth regulators; I2, no chemical plant protection, and 20% reduced N fertilisation, one to three harrows. In eight out of nine location × year combinations, hybrid rye was significantly (<i>p</i> < 0.001) superior to winter wheat in terms of grain yield under these conditions. …”
