Soil application of dazomet combined with 1,3-dichloropropene against soilborne pests for tomato production.

There is a growing problem in China, whereby tomato replant disease is being affected by Fusarium spp., Meloidogyne spp., and Phytophthora spp.

Evaluating the feasibility of estimating particulate mass emissions of older-model diesel vehicle using smoke opacity measurements.

Real-world emissions of particulate matter (PM) and smoke opacity were studied for an older-model diesel pickup truck during four types of driving tests, namely fixed-point test, snap-acceleration test, road test, and hill road test (uphill/downhill). A portable emissions measurement system (PEMS) and an opacimeter were used to measure real-time concentrations of PM and smoke opacity, respectively, and simultaneously. Correlation analysis showed a significant positive association between PM and opacity, suggesting the feasibility of using an opacimeter to estimate PM mass emissions from diesel vehicles.

Reliability evaluation of rolling bearings based on generative adversarial network sample enhancement and maximum entropy method.

Aiming at the difficulty of extracting vibration data under actual working conditions of rolling bearings, this paper proposes a bearing reliability evaluation method based on generative adversarial network sample enhancement and maximum entropy method under the condition of few samples. Based on generative adversarial network, data sample enhancement under few samples is carried out, and the reliability analysis model is established by using the maximum entropy principle and Poisson process. The reliability is evaluated according to the reliability variation frequency, variation speed and variation acceleration.

Measuring technology-facilitated sexual violence and abuse: a scoping review protocol of existing measurements.

Introduction: Technology-facilitated sexual violence and abuse (TFSVA) refers to a range of behaviours in which digital technologies are used to facilitate both virtual and face-to-face sexual harm. The proliferation of smartphone usage and increasing internet penetration rates across the world have made it easier for individuals to become perpetrators and victims of TFSVA. Since empirical studies of TFSVA remain limited in the academic arena, and there is an absence of evidence to support the development of a standardised TFSVA measurement, this review aims to explore what TFSVA measurements are currently available and their potential use in measuring TFSVA.

Interfacial functionalization and capillary force welding of enhanced silver nanowire-cellulose nanofiber composite electrodes for electroluminescent devices.

The development of flexible, intelligent, and lightweight optoelectronic devices based on flexible transparent conductive electrodes (FTCEs) utilizing silver nanowires (AgNWs) has garnered increasing attention. However, achieving low surface resistance, strong adhesion to the flexible substrate, low surface roughness, and green degradability remains a challenge. Here, a composite electrode combining natural polymer cellulose nanofibers (TCNFs) with AgNWs was prepared.
