Pesticide Spraying Strategy Optimization for a Tracked Air-Assisted Spraying Robot Based on a Novel Virginia Creeper Optimization Algorithm

To address the limitations of conventional constant-rate pesticide application in adapting to spatial variations in crop canopy structure, this study proposes a pesticide spraying strategy optimization method for a tracked air-assisted spraying robot based on a novel Virginia Cre...

Digital Transformation and Low-Carbon Transition Risk in Manufacturing Firms: A Green Innovation Perspective

Promoting the digital transformation of manufacturing and reducing the risks of the low-carbon transition are necessary steps to achieve carbon peaking and neutrality goals and drive all-round green development. Using publicly listed manufacturing enterprises in China from 2010 t...

Immunogenic effects of a combined recombinant protein formulation based on Brucella Omp19, Omp2b, Omp31, and BP26

Brucellosis is a neglected zoonotic disease for which no approved human vaccine is currently available. For Brucella , a typical intracellular pathogen, the success of recombinant protein vaccine development largely depends on whether it can effectively induce immune responses wi...

Tribological Performance of a Lipoic Acid-Based Quaternary Phosphonium Salt as a Water-Based Lubricant Additive

Abstract To develop the lubricating performance of water-based lubricants, we synthesized a lipoic acid quaternary phosphonium salt (SP) as a water-soluble lubrication additive. This study aims to enhance the tribological performance of steel tribosystems by using an SP additive....
