Response of cauliflower (<i>Brassica oleracea</i> L.) to nitric oxide application under cadmium stress by Jing Ma (24574)

“…Our results illustrated that the increasing levels of Cd in the sand, significantly (P < 0.05) decreased shoot length, root length, shoot fresh weight, root fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root dry weight, germination percentage, germination index, mean germination time, time to 50% germination, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid contents in all genotypes of B. oleracea. …”

A nonlinear PID servo controller for computer hard disk drives by Hawwa, M.A.

“…A nonlinear PID scheme is proposed as an efficient hard disk drive servo controller, reducing the settling time and lowering the required control effort. The controller is capable of increasing (decreasing) damping effect when the system output is moving away from (towards) the desired track. …”

Optoelectronic properties of highly porous silver oxide thin film by Ahmad Al-Sarraj (17151007)

“…The Ag₂O phase of silver oxide appears after 300 s of oxidation under the same conditions, while the optical transparency of the thin film decreases as plasma etching time increases. The sheet resistance of the final film is influenced by the oxidation time and the plasma application periodicity.…”

The Sources of Variance in the Helsinki Stock Exchange by Ben Sita, Bernard

“…Furthermore, inserting the ratio of volume expectation to duration expectation in the ARMA model and the vector error correction (VEC) model, we find that the short-term variance increases (decreases) when more (less) than 1 unit share is traded for 1 unit time.…”
