Thus, the aim of this research was to study the germination and growth of green beans at differing levels of gravity from 0.5G to 3G. Pseudo gravity has been used to study the growth and germination of the green beans under different gravity levels. The results showed that under high gravity the green beans were able to germinate but were unable to grow. Under low gravity the green beans were able to both germinate and grow. However, due to the limitations of the authors’ apparatus, the behavior of green beans under lower gravity levels than 0.5G could not be investigated. Finite element modeling was used to study the stems of the green beans at different gravity levels. The result from the FEM is correlated with the experiment but it did not take the angle from the horizontal line as the actual germination of the green beans. However, it shows that under high gravity the stems of the bean sprouts were not able to resist the force of gravity. Thus, the plants might be unable to germinate and grow on new planets of larger size.","PeriodicalId":131530,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Applied Physics","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133932361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study revealed one and in most cases two source model, these are the deep magnetic anomaly sources and the shallow magnetic anomaly sources. The deep sources anomalies vary between 2.23km and 5.11km with an average depth of 3.05km and this represents the magnetic basement depth. The shallow anomaly sources vary from 0.07km to 0.42km with an average of 0.21km and this may be regarded as the magnetic intrusions into the sediment, probably through the magmatic activities. The revelation from this study of 3.05km magnetic basement depth at the southern part of the area is synonymous to depth of Cretaceous sediment, which is very significant to hydrocarbon generation potential in the area. The result shows the graben nature and indicated the existence of a deeper sub basin in the area. The central and south-western parts with higher sedimentary thicknesses are the most probable sites for hydrocarbon accumulation.","PeriodicalId":131530,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Applied Physics","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129355542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But due to the complexity of the traditional holographic technique, it can hardly be applied to commercial display systems. In this paper, the field reconstruction of holograms (or real-time reconstruction of holograms) method, which is more practical and better than traditional holographic technique in image quality, is first proposed for realizing the display of true 3D image at free space. By combining the advantages of geometrical optics and the wave optics, a true 3D display is successfully designed. And by designing an interactive image generation chip, the designed 3D display allows user to interact with the 3D image in the style that's natural to them.","PeriodicalId":131530,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Applied Physics","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115644163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Procreative sterility is often evoked by radiation, a convenient and consistent technique that maintains an inexpensive degree of aggressiveness within the discharged insects. The price and effectiveness of an effective program integration of the SIT rely on the balance between sterility and aggressiveness, but it seems that current operational programs with an associate SIT element aren't achieving an associated, applicable balance. In this paper, we will discuss how to improve the sterilization method as well as a simple model and procedure for determining the optimum dose. The work in the gift was focused on an association analysis of the electromagnetic wave technique for insect sterilization as a risk issue. Discharge of enormous numbers of gamma-radiated male flies over the complete island caused concern regarding sterilization as an attainable technique for the dominant insects' public health. Several studies on the sterilization of varied insect vectors of sickness have been conducted since then. The study's goal was to check if electromagnetic waves were an efficient insect management mechanism. Insect sterilization is commonly used to create safe environments for fruit homes, manage blighters, and avoid livestock health issues. The sterilization insect technique entails mass-rearing of the target species, sterilization of the male, and unharnessing in sufficient numbers to equal wild male flies in the natural environment. It's species-specific, with no results for any of the 'non-target' species.","PeriodicalId":131530,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Applied Physics","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124511463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The material is believed to circumvent the difficulty of combining data processing and mass storage facilities in a single crystal besides solving non-volatility problems. The concentration x, of Mn that substitutes for a fraction of Ga in the compound is thought to contribute a large concentration of magnetic moments and holes. The material studied is focused on dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) like Ga 1-X Mn X N that play a key role in semiconductor spintronics. Due to their ferromagnetic properties they can be used in magnetic sensors and as spin injectors. The basic problems for applications are, however, the relatively low Curie temperatures of these systems. Therefore, we focus on the understanding of the magnetic properties and on a reliable calculation of Curie temperatures from first principles. We have developed a theoretical framework for calculating critical temperatures by combining first principles calculations and in terms of the Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya– Yosida quantum spin model in Green’s function approach. Magnetic properties of the group-III nitride semiconductors are introduced here with basic material parameters (temperature, concentration, heat capacity, etc. Temperature dependencies of the spin wave specific heat, inverse magnetic susceptibility and reduced magnetization are determined. Therefore, the dependence of the Neel temperature on the manganese ion concentration is linear thus for our calculation the highest Neel temperature obtained T=146.3k within the concentration of 0.2.","PeriodicalId":131530,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Applied Physics","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125477136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
