This paper aims to cost-effectively improve the energy efficiency of large vessels in shipping by the optimum design of propeller boss cap fins (PBCFs).First, a model propeller of the modern four-blade propeller in a Ro-Ro ship, with no boss cap fin in its original design, is experimentally and numerically investigated.The computational fluid dynam
Here we show that central administration of pyroglutamylated arginine-phenylamine-amide peptide (QRFP/26RFa) increases both food intake and locomotor activity, without any significant effect on energy expenditure, thermogenesis or reward.Germline knock out of either of the mouse Switch Start Gear Tray (28) QRFP receptor orthologs, Gpr103a and Gpr10
Dental calculus is an excellent source of information on the dietary patterns Wingback Chairs of past populations, including consumption of plant-based items.The detection of plant-derived residues such as alkaloids and their metabolites in dental calculus provides direct evidence of consumption by individuals within a population.We conducted a stu
Remote sensing target tracking in the aerial video from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) plays a key role in public security.As the UAV aerial video has rapid changes in scale and perspective, few pixels in the target region, and multiple similar disruptors, and the main tracking methods in this research field generally have relatively low tracking p
