Tensiometers have been used in agriculture for many years, as
the magnitude of pore water suction affects the ease with which
plants can absorb water from the soil. They have, however,
traditionally been limited to the ...

Most sensitivity analysis studies of optimization algorithm control parameters are restricted to a single
objective function evaluation (OFE) budget. This restriction is problematic because the optimality of
control ...
Dymond, Antoine Smith Dryden(University of Pretoria, 2014)
The performance of optimization algorithms is sensitive to both the optimization problem's
numerical characteristics and the termination criteria of the algorithm. Given these considerations
two tuning algorithms named ...
PURPOSE – The purpose of this paper was to present the results of the three types of FG transistors that were investigated. The reliability issues
of oxide thickness due to programming, fabrication defects and process ...
Paper presented at the 26th Annual Southern African Transport Conference 9 - 12 July 2007 "The challenges of implementing policy?", CSIR International Convention Centre, Pretoria, South Africa. ABSTRACT:The turbo roundabout ...
Blades are critical components of turbomachines, failure of a single blade may result in catastrophic
failure of the entire machine. One study found that blade failure was the third largest cause of power
generation unit ...
