Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn "Expert System" For Stereoscopic 3D Visualization (with out the Application of Conventional Attachments to the Eyes) of Computer Acquired and Computer Generated StereopairsN. Sandya Rani, V. Vaithya NathanProblem statement: Though stereoscopic 3D visualization technology has made considerable progress, it was always associated with eye attachments, like wearing color glasses, wearing Polaroid glasses, using timed shutters. Approach: This has considerably retarded the popularity of 3D visualization technology. Though there are discrete references in the literature for developing stereoscopic 3D visualization without application of glasses, these methods involve transferring … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,902 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCorn (Zea Mays L.) Plant Characteristics and Grain Yield Response to N Fertilization Programs in No-Tillage SystemKesi Liu, Pawel WiatrakProblem statement: Nitrogen application timing and Nitrogen (N) rate are two important factors to influence corn production in No-Tillage (NT) system, but N recommendations may need to be revised due to insufficient rainfall in dryland rain-fed environment. Approach: This study was to determine the effects of two N application timing (planting and split application at planting and V6 corn growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2011 · 8,340 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDF Cite
