Symptomological identification of Citrus Psorosis Virus (CPsV) in citrus orchards of Northern Cyprus by T. Alas, A. Akın, İ. Kahramanoğlu

“…Chlorotic spotting and ringspot may also be caused on the leaves of infected young trees.There were reports not to kill the infected trees in the Mediterranean basin and America, but the disease leads to an important reduction in yield and fruit quality in time. Recent available verbal information among the farmers in Northern Cyprus claims that there is an increase in the symptoms of chlorotic spotting on leaves and spalling on tree trunks, which are thought to be caused by CPsV. …”

Trajectory Optimization of CAVs in Freeway Work Zone considering Car-Following Behaviors Using Online Multiagent Reinforcement Learning by Tong Zhu, Xiaohu Li, Wei Fan, Changshuai Wang, Haoxue Liu, Runqing Zhao

“…The simulation results show that MARL is effective for online computation with in-timing response. More importantly, comparisons of the results obtained in various scenarios demonstrate that the proposed system obtained smoother vehicle trajectories in all controlled sections, rather than only in the merging area, indicating that it can achieve better traffic conditions in freeway work zone areas.…”

A Review on the Parameters Affecting the Mechanical, Physical, and Thermal Properties of Natural/Synthetic Fibre Hybrid Reinforced Polymer Composites by DO Bichang’a, FO Aramide, IO Oladele, OO Alabi

“…Natural fibres provide an eco-friendly, more sustainable, and low cost alternative to synthetic fibres that have been used for a long time in the development of composite materials. However, natural fibres are associated with high water absorption capacity due to their hydrophilic nature leading to poor compatibility with hydrophobic polymeric matrices, thus lower mechanical properties for various applications. …”

De l’ordre moral à l’ordre social. L’application des lois pénalisant la sexualité prémaritale selon des lignes de classe by Mériam Cheikh

“…The opposition is thus between legitimate and illegitimate practices of out of wedlock intimacy and night-time entertainment. Since the legitimacy and illegitimacy of these practices are largely correlated with the social status of the girls concerned and their positions within the social space of the intimate economy that they occupy at some point in their trajectory, the differentiated treatment of sexual illegality apparent therefore to the maintenance of a social order under the guise of preserving the moral order.…”

Melville and the Vortex Theory of Matter by Paweł Stachura

“…In 1859, the German physicist demonstrated mathematically that stable vortex rings could exist indefinitely in a (theoretical) continuous elastic fluid, rather like the remarkably stable smoke rings blown by guns or as a smoking trick. For a time, the vortex atom was recognized as a very promising idea on the cutting edge of science. …”
