Prediction of Maize (Zea Mays L.) Population with Normalized-Difference Vegetative Index (NDVI) and Coefficient of Variation (CV)

Introduction

With the escalation in cost production and environmental concerns, researchers have in the recent past focused in investigating resourceful means of increasing yields while reducing fertilizer use. Arnall & Godsey assert that the seeding rate and hybrids that promise the highest crop populations is continuously sort by corn cost cultivators worldwide (2013). Nielsen et al. notes that the crop populations are tied to the end yields. Corn populations have greatly increased in Indiana over the past thirty years to make about 340 plants ...

I. Introduction Advances in recombinant DNA technology and bioinformatics-based data analysis have driven the explosion of structural biology in the last two decades (Kelly, Jess, and Price 119). This has resulted to the identification of at least 2000 proteins annually and a growing need in performing structural studies in these new proteins. The current trend involves the concern of analyzing protein structures close to its natural conditions (and other conditions) and of measuring their rates of structural changes, an essential factor in their biological functions. The technique of circular dichroism (CD) has gained an increasing popularity in addressing these ...

Design for manufacturing a concept that seeks to minimize the cost involved in manufacturing an item. As a concept in engineering, design for manufacturing also seeks to reduce the difficulty when manufacturing a product. The design for manufacturing concept is concerned with the reduction of the overall cost of production that results from parts that are used in the manufacturing process. In order to achieve this, the design for manufacturing concept seeks to minimize the complexities in the processes that might impede manufacturing operations by using common primary axes and datum features (Porter 2).

On the other hand, the design for assembly ...

Introduction

Taxicab geometry is a better idealized model for urban geography as compared to Euclidean geometry. This is very applicable in urban planning where distances within the roads are divided within rigid blocks and the shortest distance cannot be the hypotenuse. This is very helpful in establishing the shortest distance between any two points. ( Surhome, Timpledon & Susan). Geometry can be traced back over 2000 years. This is solely refers to Euclidean geometry introduced by Euclid. A German mathematician Hermann Miknowski proposed taxicab geometry. He had the proposition that distances in taxicab geometry is different than in Euclidean geometry. His ...
