Measurement for Three Dimensional Surface of Welding Pool in GTAW Welding
Welding pool deformation has a close relationship with the backside bead width, so pool surface shape sensing is used to monitoring and control weld quality, specifically of weld penetration. In this paper, se...

Genetic Analysis of Quantitative Resistance Loci (QRL) of Tomato Variety Hawaii 7996 in Taiwan
The interaction between virulence or avirulence of Ralstonia solanacearum and susceptibility or resistance of different tomato lines does not seem to follow a classical gene-for-gene system (Flor, 1971). Until no...

Resistance Sources to Bacterial Wilt in Eggplant (Solanum melongena)
Bacterial wilt (BW), caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is a major limiting factor for eggplant (Solarium melongena) production in the tropics and subtropics. The pathogen is difficult to control because it is soi...

Worldwide Evaluation of an International Set of Resistance Sources to Bacterial Wilt in Tomato
Bacterial wilt (BW) of tomato, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is the most important disease affecting tomato production in many tropical and subtropical regions (Opeña et al. 1990). Disease control for BW is d...

Population Structure of Ralstonia solanacearum From a Disease Nursery and Tomato Production Fields in Taiwan
Planting resistant varieties is potentially the simplest and most effective way to control tomato bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. However, resistance to bacterial wilt in tomato can be location-s...

Edge-face total chromatic number of outerplanar graphs with Δ (G)=6
Let G be a planar graph without cut vertex, let χ(G) be the edge-face total chromatic number of G. This paper proves χ(G)=6 if G is an outerplanar graph with Δ(G)=6.

A numerical simulation of magnetically driven coronal mass ejections
Using a quasi-steady, helmet-streamer as the initial corona, we simulate the dynamical evolution of the mass ejection due to magnetic eruption at the base of the streamer. The simulated ejections reproduce som...

Surfactant Liquid Crystals: Phase Diagrams and Phase Behavior
The heat capacity associated with the nematic (N) to neat soap (NS) and nematic (N) to isotropic (I) phase transitions has been measured in binary mixtures of cesium perfluoro-octanoate (CsPFO) and water. Prev...

MHD Analysis of the Evolution of Solar Magnetic Fields and Currents in an Active Region
We have used a self-consistent magnetohydrodynamics model to study the evolution of solar magnetic fields in an active region. The problem has been cast as an initial boundary-value problem based on explicit m...
