The existence of indigenous technologies and knowledge bases that could be invaluable to responding to climate change is widely appreciated.This article focuses on one such indigenous technology of a bounder and brushwood diversion weir designed to divert water from the source river to its off-taking canal for irrigation.Of its several functions, t
Introduction Robotic neck dissection surgery allows less invasiveness to significantly improve the aesthetic impact even though it does not compromise the principles of radical cancer procedure.Objective The aim of our work is to describe our personal experience with robotic neck dissection surgery.Methods A retrospective study was conducted by ana
In the sheet metal stamping process, during sliding contact between the tool and sheet, it is expected that severe events such as tool wear or fracture on the sheet generate acoustic emission (AE) burst waveforms.Attempts have been made in the literature to correlate the AE burst waveform with the wear mechanisms.However, there is a need for additi
Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is increasingly being used as a reverse genetics tool to study functions of specific plant genes.It is especially useful for plants, such CLASSIC RICE VANILLA as soybean, that are recalcitrant to transformation.Previously, Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) was shown to be an effective VIGS vector for soybean.However,
