Article Abstract

Laser-excited remote phosphor (LERP) systems are the next step in solid-state lighting technology. However, the thermal stability of phosphors has long been a major concern in the reliable operation of these systems. As a result, a simulation strategy is presented here that couples the optical and thermal effects, while the phosphor properties are modeled to temperature. A simulation framework is developed in which the optical and thermal models are defined in Python using appropriate interfaces to commercial software: the ray tracing software Zemax OpticStudio for the optical analysis and the finite element method (FEM) software ANSYS Mechanical for the thermal analysis. Specifically, the steady-state opto-thermal analysis model is introduced and experimentally validated in this study based on Ce:YAG single-crystals with polished and ground surfaces. The reported experimental and simulated peak temperatures are in good agreement for both the polished/ground phosphors in the transmissive and reflective setups. A simulation study is included to demonstrate the simulation's capabilities for optimizing LERP systems.

A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the changes of root morphology and its relationship with P uptake under different P levels (0, 50 and 100 mg PO·kg, represented by P, P and P, respectively). The results showed that intercropping significantly changed root morphological parameters of both maize and soybean, and increased the root:shoot ratio in soybean under different P levels. Intercropping significantly increased root length, root surface area, root volume, and root dry weight of maize and soybean by 25.

Glycaspis brimblecombei Moore (Hemiptera: Aphalaridae) is an invasive psyllid introduced into the Mediterranean area, where it affects several species of Eucalyptus. Psyllaephagus bliteus Riek (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) is a specialized parasitoid of this psyllid that was accidentally introduced into Italy in 2011. We developed a model of this host-parasitoid system that accounts for the influence of environmental conditions on the G.

Background: Replicate population pairs that diverge in response to similar selective regimes allow for an investigation of (a) whether phenotypic traits diverge in a similar and predictable fashion, (b) whether there is gradual variation in phenotypic divergence reflecting variation in the strength of natural selection among populations, (c) whether the extent of this divergence is correlated between multiple character suites (i.e., concerted evolution), and (d) whether gradual variation in phenotypic divergence predicts the degree of reproductive isolation, pointing towards a role for adaptation as a driver of (ecological) speciation.
