As electric vehicles gain popularity, there has been a lot of interest in supporting their continued development with the aim of enhancing their dependability, environmental advantages, and charging efficiency. The scheduling of navigation and charging for electric vehicles is among the most well-known research topics. For optimal navigation and charging scheduling, the coupled network state between the transportation and power networks must be met; moreover, the scheduling outcomes might significantly impact these networks.

HfRhGe stands out as a noncentrosymmetric Weyl semimetal with unconventional superconducting characteristics. Using muon-spin rotation and relaxation (µSR) spectroscopy and thermodynamic measurements, a fully gapped superconducting state is identified in HfRhGe that breaks time-reversal symmetry at the superconducting transition.

The strategies used in the war such as attack, defense, assigning soldiers to take positions are the inspiration to this algorithm. The proposed WSO algorithm is validated in a constructed geographic area which consists of Six starting/destination points, sixteen nodes, and twelve charging stations.

Green solvents are required in formulations due to regulations, health, and environmental concerns. In emulsifiable concentration (EC) formulations, the "green chemistry" movement has led to the use of less harmful solvents.

Rice-based diet faces an important public health concern due to arsenic (As) accumulation in rice grain, which is toxic to humans. Rice crops are prone to assimilate As due to continuously flooded cultivation. In this study, the objective was to determine how water regimes (flooded and aerobic) in rice cultivation impact total As and inorganic As speciation in rice on the basis of a field-scale trial in the post-monsoon season.

To illustrate the proposed concept in this torque controlled drive, torque and mutual flux linkages are applied as external inputs and speed of the machine is kept fixed. Moreover the magnitude of torque angle as well as stator current reference is controlled through the proposed machine dynamics.

The ferromagnetic phase is suppressed near 2.1 GPa, but quantum criticality is avoided by the appearance of a magnetic phase, likely modulated, AFM_{Q}.
