La pulverización es una técnica fundamental en la producción agropecuaria. La selección de boquillas para reducir la cantidad de producto sin afectar la distribución es un desafío. El siguiente trabajo pretendió evaluar el desempeño de diferentes boquillas sobre objetivos verticales y horizontales. Se contrastaron tres boquillas: 3D-defy, XR11002VP y TXA8002VK sobre dos prismas de diferentes dimensiones. Se utilizaron tarjetas hidrosensibles y el programa CIR1.5® para evaluar impactos, DVM y Eficiencia sobre caras horizontales y verticales del objetivo en galpón cerrado y asfaltado. Se obtuvieron los mayores valores de todos los parámetros en caras horizontales. Eficiencias entre 50 y 80 % en horizontales, 7% y 25 % en verticales. En horizontal entre 150 y 240 imp.cm-2 según boquilla, 25 y 50 imp.cm-2 en verticales. En función del diseño los resultados se ven limitados a condiciones de 0 viento y suelos muy parejos. Sin embargo, permiten partir de una base sólida para la toma de decisiones en condiciones de trabajo mucho más reales que las generadas por las mediciones en laboratorio. La boquilla Defy-3D es una boquilla nueva sin pruebas de comportamiento a campo. Se puede concluir que las angulaciones de las boquillas no mejoran la calidad de aplicación en las posiciones verticales bajo las condiciones del ensayo. En los objetivos verticales no se alcanzó el número mínimo de impactos recomendado para fungicidas o insecticidas de contacto. Pese a las condiciones ambientales del ensayo, existieron pérdidas de producto.

Abstract
A quasibinary system of Ga2O3-Al2O3 offers a range of applications in wide bandgap semiconductor engineering. Different polymorphs and concentrations of (Al
x
Ga1−x
)2O3 manifest a variety of structural and electronic properties, paving the way for tunability of (Al
x
Ga1−x
)2O3 for specific functions. In this work, we investigate the energetics of alpha (α) and beta (β) polymorphs of Ga2O3 and Al2O3 by considering all possible configurations in a conventional unit cell. Using density functional theory, we show that the formation energies of (Al
x
Ga1−x
)2O3 in α and β configurations start to coincide at 50% concentration (Al0.5Ga0.5)2O3. The corundum configuration then becomes more dominant (lower in energy) than its monoclinic counterpart at around 80% Al concentration. The lowest formation energy configurations for 50% concentration in both α and β polymorphs also manifest a preference towards an ordered phase. These show that the stability of Ga2O3-Al2O3 and its phase transitions are significantly influenced by the relative arrangements of Ga and Al within the quasibinary semiconducting crystal.

Published: May 2023

<p>Automatic target classification is a critical capability for non-cooperative drone surveillance radars in several defence and civilian applications. It is accordingly a well-established research field and numerous algorithms exist for recognising targets, including miniature unmanned air systems (i.e., small, mini, micro and nano platforms), from their radar signatures. They have notably benefited from advances in machine learning (e.g., deep neural networks) and are increasingly able to achieve remarkably high accuracies. Such classification results are often captured by standard, generic, object recognition metrics and originate from testing on simulated or real radar measurements of drones under high signal to noise ratios. Hence, it is difficult to assess and benchmark the performance of different classifiers under realistic operational conditions. In this paper, we first outline the key challenges and considerations associated with the automatic classification of miniature drones from radar data. We then present a set of important performance metrics, from an end-user perspective. They are relevant to typical drone surveillance system requirements and constraints. Selected examples from real radar observations are shown for illustrations. We also outline here various emerging approaches and future directions that can produce more robust drone classifiers for radar. </p>

In addition to the adoption of proper temperature and relative humidity, the selection of an atmosphere surrounding packaged fresh produce with reduced O2 and/or increased CO2 is one of the most widely used and useful tools to prolong the shelf-life of horticultural crops. However, as O2 and/or CO2 values that might cause injury are strictly related to the commodity, they should be optimized for each product. Here three study cases are reported about the application of modified atmospheres (MA), with different CO2 concentrations (0-40 kPa), to table grapes (cv. Italia) and sweet cherries (cv. Ferrovia) and, as short-term treatment (48 h at 0 °C), to fresh-cut artichokes (cv. Violet de Provence). In each trial, the effect of high CO2 treatment on quality parameters was observed during cold storage. Concerning table grape “Italia”, our results show that low CO2 (up to 10kPa) MA preserved the quality and sensory parameters of the fruit, whereas high CO2 (> 20 kPa) caused a fermentative metabolism. As for sweet cherries 'Ferrovia', 20 kPa CO2 MA helped to maintain the quality traits during storage. On the other hand, this fruit proved to be sensitive to CO2 accumulation (over 20kPa) in hypoxic conditions, since it caused an increase in respiration rate and the biosynthesis of volatile fermentative metabolites. Finally, for fresh-cut artichokes, a short-term CO2 treatment, up to 10kPa, reduced respiration rate and browning index, preserving the volatile profile, while high CO2 (40 kPa) may have caused fermentative metabolism. In conclusion, the application of a MA enriched in CO2 has been shown to have different effects on the quality parameters of the three products, in agreement with the fact that CO2 sensibility depends on each specific fruit or vegetable under study.

Published: May 2023

Punica granatum L. contains several bioactive compounds with antioxidant activity that have a positive effect on human health. This study aims to investigate the changes in the chemical-physical and qualitative parameters of pomegranate fruits cv. Acco from harvest up to +90 days of cold storage (+4°C and 95% RH). Morphological parameters, juice yield, weight loss, total soluble solids content (TSS), pH, titratable acidity, the color of the epicarp (L*, a*, b*), content of polyphenols, anthocyanins, flavonoids, and antioxidant activity were analyzed. The results showed an increase (about 29%) in the juice content (%) at +60 days of cold storage. Cold storage has also shown positive effects on some bioactive compounds. Flavonoids and anthocyanins content increase from 287.98 mg CE/100 ml of juice to 389.23 mg of CE/100 ml of juice and from 8.32 to mg/100 ml of juice to 11.13 mg/100 ml of juice at + 90 days of cold storage, respectively. On the basis of our results that confirmed the literature data, the pomegranate fruit is rich in bioactive compounds that exert beneficial actions on human health, and it has also been demonstrated that such nutraceutical compounds increased during cold storage, allowing the fruit to be preserved a long term.
Growth and Survival of Blue Swimming Crab (Portunus pelagicus L.)In Different Rearing Substrates and Stocking Densities
Authors: Doronila Paul B 
Published: May 2023

The study of the growth and survival of blue swimming crabs is important to optimize its production and explore the development of net-cage crab culture as the culture scheme for production of blue swimming crabs. This paper investigates the growth and survival rate of Portunus pelagicus at 15 and 30 days of culture using two rearing substrates (net and sand) and three stocking densities (15, 30 and 45 crabs/m2). Physicochemical parameters such as the dissolved oxygen, salinity, water temperature, and water transparency were also gathered across the days of culture to explain other factors that may influence survival rate of crabs during culture. Results showed no significant differences for both growth rate in terms of carapace width and body weight and survival rate. Significant interaction between the stocking rate and rearing substrates on the growth rate in terms of carapace width during the 15 days of culture were observed. Poor growth and survival rates of the crabs may have been the result of cannibalism and poor quality of bottom substrates like silt and abrupt change of water quality namely salinity and transparency. It is recommended to validate the results in a more favorable rearing environment. Management strategies to control predation may be tested and implemented when culturing blue swimming crabs in cages and pens.

Published: May 2023

Circular economy (CE) refers to the production and consumption of goods through closed loop material flows that internalize environmental externalities linked to virgin resource extraction and the generation of waste. CE has not materialized in the Philippines since the implementation of the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act in 2000. Several research studies have already been conducted focusing on the various aspects related to solid waste management. However, there is paucity of the available information related to waste management technologies that can stir the circular economy in the country. This study assessed the science, technology, and innovation on waste management in the Philippines within a ten-year period from 2009 to 2019. Content analysis was done on the research conducted and technologies generated to assess the role of science, technology, and innovation on waste management. Results revealed that several studies mainly focused on waste characterization, reuse, recycle, reduce or 3Rs, policy development and implementation, brand audits, and public and health effects of plastic wastes. Most of the studies conducted were quantitative in nature. On generated technologies, most of the reports focused on refuse-derived-fuel, vermin-composting, gravity-driven Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), bulb eater machine, and plastic bricks. Despite the annual increase in waste generation, waste management still receives poor attention from the government. Thus, achieving a circular economy will take time in the country.

Authors: Буракова Е.А. 
Published: May 2023

рассматривается концепция управления промышленным производством углеродных нанотрубок (УНТ) с заданными параметрами CVD методом, основанная на новом подходе к управлению производственной системой и учете управляющих факторов, предусмотренных введением дополнительных стадий обработки катализатора физическим воздействием. На основе данной концепции разработана и реализована методология поддержки принятия решений при промышленном производстве УНТ с заданными параметрами, которая позволила создать информационную систему (ИС), обеспечивающую технолога информацией о составе и условиях обработки катализатора физическим воздействием, способствующих реализации синтеза наноструктур с параметрами, значения которых наиболее близки к заданным. Использование ИС в производственном процессе способствует существенному снижению затрат времени и ресурсов, вызванных необходимостью проведения дополнительных экспериментов с целью установления условий получения катализатора, обеспечивающего реализацию синтеза УНТ с заданными параметрами. Установлено, что введение в технологическую систему производства УНТ дополнительных компонентов (системы поддержки принятия решений и технологических стадий обработки катализатора физическим воздействием) дает возможность системе, не меняя условия синтеза наноструктур, оперативно переходить к получению наноструктур с требуемыми значениями параметров, отличными от ранее выпускаемых
the article deals with the concept of managing the industrial production of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with specified settings by the CVD method based on a new approach to managing the production system and taking into account the control factors provided by the introduction of additional stages of catalyst treatment by physical action. Based on this concept, a decision support methodology was developed and implemented in the industrial production of CNTs with specified settings, which made it possible to create an information system (IS) ensuring the technologist with all information about the composition and conditions of catalyst treatment by physical influence, contributing to the synthesis of nanostructures with parameters which values are the closest to the given ones. Using of IS in the production process contributes to a significant reduction in time and resources costs caused by the need to conduct additional experiments in order to establish conditions for obtaining a catalyst that ensures the implementation of CNTs synthesis with specified settings. It was established that the introduction of additional components into the technological system of CNTs production (decision support systems and technological stages of catalyst treatment by physical action) enables the system, without changing the conditions for the synthesis of nanostructures, quickly proceed to obtaining nanostructures with the required parameter values which are different from previously produced ones

Published: May 2023

INTRODUCCIÓN: La apendicitis aguda es un problema de salud frecuente. Sin embargo, poca información existe sobre esta patología en nuestro país. Nuestros objetivos son: 1) reportar la correlación entre los hallazgos quirúrgicos e histopatológicos y 2) informar la proporción de casos de apendicitis agudas complicadas en el Hospital Regional de Veraguas.
METODOLOGÍA: Estudio transversal que incluyó a todos los pacientes mayores de 15 años sometidos a apendicectomía entre abril y octubre de 2020 en el Hospital Regional de Veraguas. Los datos se obtuvieron mediante un cuestionario presencial y del expediente clínico. Se definió apendicitis aguda complicada como apéndice en fase gangrenosa o perforada según hallazgo histopatológico. El sexo, grupo de edad, tiempo de evolución, automedicación, estudio de imagenología, y complicaciones postquirúrgicas fueron utilizadas como variables clínico-epidemiológicas.
RESULTADOS: De los 75 pacientes sometidos a apendicectomía, la mayoría eran hombres (54.7%), dentro de los 15-25 años (49.3%), con un tiempo de evolución de 24-48 horas (39%). Once pacientes (14.7%) requirieron estudios de imagen y dos pacientes (3%) presentaron complicaciones postquirúrgicas.
Además, de los 54 apéndices clasificados como no complicados por análisis histopatológico, 48 (88.9%) fueron clasificados como tal por diagnóstico transoperatorio. Del mismo modo, de los 21 apéndices reportados en el histopatológico como no complicado, 12 (57.1%) fueron clasificados como tal en el transoperatorio.
CONCLUSIÓN: Encontramos un coeficiente kappa moderado (k=0.48), así como una mayor proporción de casos de apendicitis aguda complicada en comparación con la literatura. Nuestro estudio resalta la importancia de la histopatología como herramienta para el adecuado manejo postquirúrgico de esta patología.
