An experiment was conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana during 2014-15 and 2015-16, keeping four sowing dates {25th Oct (D), 10th Nov (D), 25th Nov (D) and 10th Dec (D)} in main plots and five irrigation schedules {irrigation at 15 (FC), 25 (FC), 35 (FC) and 45 (FC) % depletion of soil moisture from field capacity (FC) and a conventional practice} in sub plots. The objective of the study was to evaluate the performance of CERES-Wheat model for simulating yield and water use under varying planting and soil moisture regimes. The simulated and observed grain yield was higher in D, with irrigation applied at FC as compared to all other sowing date and irrigation regime combinations. Simulated grain yield decreased by 19% with delay in sowing from 25th October to 10th December because of 8% reduction in simulated crop evapotranspiration. Simulated evapotranspiration decreased by 16%, wheat grain yield by 23% and water productivity by 15% in drip irrigation at 45% depletion from field capacity as compared to drip irrigation at 15% of field capacity. It was further revealed that the model performed well in simulating the phenology, water use and yield of wheat.

Metal-organic framework materials exhibit significant potential for diverse applications in gas adsorption and separation. We have studied the performance changes of Cu-BTC, Cu-MBTC and Cu-EBTC under different water-containing conditions. GCMC studies shows that, compared with Cu-BTC, the water absorption properties of Cu-MBTC and Cu-EBTC have a certain degree of decline, which is consistent with the experimental results.

Vanadium-based Na superionic conductor (NASICON) type materials (NaVM(PO), M = transition metals) have attracted extensive attention when used as sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) cathodes due to their stable structures and large Na diffusion channels. However, the materials have poor electrical conductivity and mediocre energy density, which hinder their practical applications. Activating the V/V redox couple (V/V≈4.

The objective of this study was to investigate the water-holding capacity (WHC) and quality changes of beef during heating at specific temperatures (including 40 °C, 60 °C, 80 °C, and 100 °C), as well as the degradation of proteins and the distribution of water within the muscle at different heating temperatures. The experiment utilized the sirloin section from eight crossbred cattle of and breeds, with four sampling sessions, two cattle per session. Each cattle were divided into 30 beef sirloin samples, each weighing 150 ± 10 g, and each session was completed within 3 days with the following tests.

This study proposes an efficient, cost-effective, and industrially scalable electrode modulation strategy, which involves directly adding a small amount of high thermal and high conductance TiN and well interface compatible WO to NaNiFeMnO (NaNFMO-TW) cathode slurry, to effectively reduce electrode polarization and interface side reactions, reduce the Ohmic heat and polarization heat of the battery, and ultimately to significantly improve the sodium-ion storage and thermal safety performance of the battery. At room temperature (RT) and 1C rate, the modified NaNFMO-TW electrode exhibits a reversible capacity of ∼95 mAh g after 300 cycles, with a capacity retention rate of 82.6%, being higher than the 50.
